Chapter 241: Bai Cangshu's Weakness
Uchiha Cifang suddenly felt his whole body trembling; violent killing intent erupted from the smoke. The next moment, like a gale sweeping through, the scorching dust was instantly cleared away. He only saw Big Brother Uchiha Dou spitting flames from his mouth, but that tall man had already assumed a different stance.
In an instant, the opponent's body seemed to appear out of thin air beside Dou, and a sky full of fist shadows emerged in a flash.
That was a terrifying move that surpassed all the taijutsu he had ever seen or heard of.
Bang bang bang bang...
Even without the space to release a Body Replacement Technique, Uchiha Dou seemed to suffer hundreds of attacks, his body exploding with a boom.
Pfft!
Blood and severed limbs splattered everywhere. Uchiha Cifang touched the warm blood on his face and smelled the thick, pungent scent of gore, finally confirming that Big Brother Uchiha Dou had truly been beaten to death by this person.
【You have killed Uchiha Dou, gained 500 Dimension Points】
【Killing Intent Wave increased】
【Your reputation with the Uchiha Clan has decreased, current: Hatred (35/100)】
"You..."
Bai Cangshu smelled the blood, and his Killing Intent Wave began to surge once more. He turned his gaze toward Uchiha Cifang, who had just retreated less than thirty meters, when a cry of pain suddenly came from behind.
Bai Cangshu's figure vanished instantly. When he reappeared, he had already grabbed Ping Zhonghua, who was holding a sharp blade. Catherine had been stabbed in the back; the wound was not deep. Her eyes were rolled back, her hands stretched forward, and that Uchiha Clan ninja stood frozen in place, the Sharingan in his eyes spinning slightly.
It was clear that one side was casting an Illusion Technique, while the other was attempting to use spiritual power to attack the opponent. Catherine kept her hands up to maintain the barrier, preventing the ninja's shuriken attacks, but she had not expected Ping Zhonghua to have already been controlled by an illusion.
Bai Cangshu pointed a finger.
Hum~
Pfft!
Golden Qi, like a laser, pierced through the Uchiha ninja who was frozen in place. His head was instantly penetrated, and after twitching twice, he fell to the ground, silent.
Ping Zhonghua also fell to the ground with her eyes rolled back. Catherine casually took out a spray bottle and sprayed her wound; the bleeding stopped immediately.
Although she was a Reincarnator specialized in spiritual power and support, her build was quite suitable for head-on combat against these ninjas. The resistance brought by her high spiritual power provided strong defense against illusion techniques, and the Barrier Technique she excelled at also had excellent defensive effects against the various attacks of ninjas.
If she were prepared, she believed she could kill a Jonin who was not specialized in taijutsu.
"I'm fine. Should we pursue that one? I can lock onto his location!"
Catherine had already seen the notification that her reputation with the Uchiha Clan had decreased. She was somewhat worried about the "Chaos" currently in Konoha. If their understanding was correct, the timeline was likely around Konoha year 54-56. At this point in time, internally speaking, the Uchiha Clan's strength was considered quite formidable.
Uchiha Shisui was already famous throughout the Ninja World, and Uchiha Itachi had already revealed his genius aptitude. Coupled with a group of Uchiha ninjas with Three-Tomoe Sharingan, if they were determined to kill "Chaos," then Chaos would not have much of a chance to escape.
Bai Cangshu shook his head. Purple light churned in his eyes, but he still successfully suppressed his killing intent.
He took two steps forward, crouched down, and gouged the eyes out of the corpse.
【Body Modification: Sharingan】
【Quality: Purple (Rare and Peerless)】
【Description: The eyeballs of the Uchiha Clan from Naruto and its derivative worlds; possesses good transplant adaptability and powerful abilities】
【Effect: Insufficient information, cannot be brought out of this world】
Such an item naturally could not be obtained so easily. Neither of the two ninjas killed had produced a Drop Card, but this thing could complete a milestone.
【Milestone: Thousand Eyes (Rare) progress updated, current: 1/3】
"There is no need to hunt that guy down. He will bring the information back, thereby causing more valuable people to come and hunt us. Heh."
Bai Cangshu actually knew that his trial mission would not end so simply. The tracking abilities of ninjas were quite powerful, and with him carrying a normal person like Ping Zhonghua, he could not hide from their sight.
But compared to being hunted by the Konoha Anbu or Danzō's Root, he preferred that the people who came were from the Uchiha Clan; the people killed would be more valuable.
After these two battles, Bai Cangshu's understanding of the gap in combat power between himself and these ninjas had gradually become clear.
Excluding some special Ninja Arts, as well as the ninjas' innate assassination and camouflage abilities, he possessed an overwhelming advantage in head-on combat.
Speed, strength, defensive power, and spiritual resistance—Bai Cangshu was a "stat monster" without flaws. At the same time, because he possessed High-speed Regeneration and Intermediate Immortality, his margin for error was much higher than the "glass cannons" that were the ninjas of this world.
Even some Shadow Level ninjas might be ambushed and killed instantly by Bai Cangshu if caught off guard, but Bai Cangshu would almost never have such concerns.
After he successfully anchored his strength positioning in this world, his subsequent plans became increasingly bold.
"Let's go. When we reach the next town, we will release the information about the secret rift between the Uchiha Clan and the Konoha high command."
Bai Cangshu looked at the unconscious Ping Zhonghua, a cruel smile on his lips.
Ninjas were warriors living in the darkness; those dark politics and struggles could only continue to breed with the help of that darkness. But if someone kept exposing these things to the sunlight, it would surely make those creatures hiding in the dark feel unbearable burning pain.
By then... there would naturally be a steady stream of rewards delivered to his door.
Catherine looked at the surging killing intent on Tao Baibai. She frowned slightly; relying on the sensitivity of her powerful spiritual power, she felt that the Tao Baibai of this moment had a slight difference in his thought patterns compared to the Tao Baibai of last night.
More extreme, more cruel.
Perhaps Tao Baibai was not as strong and flawless as she had imagined; did some hidden danger exist within his body?
In the world of Reincarnators, diseases, terminal illnesses, curses, and memes were actually not the most terrifying things. The most terrifying things were always those that subtly influenced the Reincarnator's thinking and decision-making.
That kind of negative effect would cause a Reincarnator to gradually lose their shrewd and meticulous way of handling things, and unconsciously begin to fall into danger.
After seeing Tao Baibai dig out the two Sharingans, Catherine followed behind as he continued the journey with Ping Zhonghua. In her backpack, she actually had a 【Magic Carpet】; it was a special magic tool that could carry up to 4 people for flight.
But at this moment, Catherine chose not to take it out. She was worried about whether Tao Baibai in this state could stably protect her and Ping Zhonghua's safety.
In the battle just now, if that Uchiha ninja had used an offensive illusion, Ping Zhonghua might have already been killed.
Bai Cangshu looked at the somewhat fragile woman in his hands; she seemed to have suffered mental damage due to the influence of the Sharingan illusion.
Without a doubt, this woman was his greatest weakness at this moment.
Moreover, if the people who came were those from Root or the Anbu, they would likely kill this woman first without reservation.
Tsk, how should he make this woman survive?
Bai Cangshu thought of his 【Curse Meme: Desire】, which had never been unsealed. He licked his lips, feeling a restless urge in his heart. At this moment, the scarlet luster on the back of his hand became increasingly obvious.
——
Uchiha Cifang used the Body Flicker Technique almost without interruption, rushing back to Konoha Village at top speed. He lowered his head and reported the facts he had seen one by one in front of Uchiha Fugaku.
Uchiha Shisui, Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Yashiro, Uchiha Inabi, Uchiha Tekka, and a group of other members all stood quietly on both sides. In everyone's eyes were scarlet Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
"Are you saying that Dou didn't even last a single round before being killed instantly by the opponent?"
Uchiha Fugaku crossed his arms, seemingly devoid of emotion regarding the killing of his clansman, yet Itachi could still hear the anger beneath his father's calm tone.
Uchiha Cifang hesitated for a moment; although it went against the pride of the Uchiha Clan, she still nodded.
"Yes, I did not observe the opponent making any hand seals; Big Brother Dou was killed entirely by taijutsu."
"No hand seals, taijutsu..."
Uchiha Fugaku turned his head to look at Uchiha Shisui, and this short-haired genius of the Uchiha Clan nodded and spoke:
"Perhaps, he is another guy like 'Heaven's Will'."
Uchiha Tekka could not suppress his anger, and he took the initiative to say:
"Let me go; I will let him know the terror of the Uchiha."
Uchiha Fugaku was still thinking, but Shisui took the initiative to say:
"Let Itachi and me handle this mission."
"I am also very curious about what kind of background these mysterious guys who keep appearing one after another have, and what their intentions are toward our Konoha?"
Shisui did not see that when he said "our Konoha," everyone except Itachi had strange looks in their eyes.
In the end, Fugaku looked at Shisui and his eldest son, and still nodded.
"Then I will leave it to you both. Remember, everyone spreading that news must be eliminated!"
