Chapter 10: Up the mountain, ambush and kill
Upon arriving at the destination, Uchiha Fugaku, just as he had said before, directly concealed his figure.
Sakukaze and Kakashi hid at the foot of the mountain, seizing the time to restore their state to the peak.
In just over ten minutes, the two, who hadn't consumed much anyway, had already restored their state.
"Kakashi, let's go up. Pay attention to concealment, find an opportunity to execute an assassination first, and then launch a strong attack after being discovered."
Sakukaze, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened his eyes slowly and said to Kakashi beside him.
"Understood."
Answering Sakukaze simply, the two directly sneaked up the Broken Mountain.
Carefully concealing their figures all the way, Sakukaze and the two soon arrived at the bandits' base camp.
Although it wasn't night yet, the bandit camp was already bustling with noise.
Don't know if the bandits had gained something today, but except for those standing guard, all the bandits were gathered in the spacious courtyard, making noise, drinking, eating meat, and gambling.
Among them, it was accompanied by the screams of terrified women.
Just by taking a glance, Sakukaze and Kakashi could guess the origin of those women.
After all, only women who had been forcibly snatched up by bandits would have such terrified and desperate expressions.
Although they had long been able to guess this scene, when they truly saw the ugly, lewd, and brutal appearance of the bandits, a burst of anger and disgust couldn't help but surge in the hearts of Sakukaze and Kakashi.
However, both of them suppressed their emotions well, just deciding that the means to deal with them could be more brutal.
Looking at each other, Sakukaze and Kakashi already understood each other's meaning.
Not to mention anything else, the current situation was still very beneficial to their mission.
Without any hesitation, the two silently touched the side of the sentry post on guard.
Seizing the opportunity, Uchiha Sakukaze jumped up directly to cover the sentry's mouth, while directly pulling out a throwing knife and slashing fiercely across his neck.
A muffled groan, suppressed by the noise, rang out, and the sentry who was ambushed by Sakukaze opened his eyes in terror.
Blood kept surging from his neck; in pain, the sentry struggled frantically to save himself, but under Sakukaze's control and the weakness of his body, the sentry had no chance at all, only able to wait quietly for death to arrive.
In just a second or two, the sentry closed his eyes forever, ending his sinful life.
Except for the posture being not very elegant, this was undoubtedly a perfect assassination.
But there was no help for it; who told Sakukaze to be only six years old now, his height couldn't reach people's heads at all.
Feeling the rich resentment energy coming from the sentry, Sakukaze couldn't help but lick his lips.
Although it was only a second or two, the resentment energy radiated by the sentry because of his fear of death was already comparable to Sakukaze's harvest of half a day in the Ninja Academy.
Sure enough, besides becoming a rogue ninja who does all kinds of evil, only by becoming a ninja and performing missions can one maximize the benefits.
Sakukaze thought silently in his heart.
Although becoming a missing-nin and doing all kinds of evil also seemed to have a future, could Uchiha Sakukaze possibly make this choice?
Not to mention Sakukaze's moral values that had been maintained for more than twenty years, just the days of being hunted down, hiding here and there, and being insecure as a missing-nin were not what he wanted.
He must be crazy to choose to abandon his relatives and friends and the stable life in Konoha to be a rogue ninja.
Shaking his head, Sakukaze suppressed the excitement in his heart and the discomfort of killing for the first time, and silently touched the back of the next lucky sentry.
Following the same method, in just three to five minutes, the eight sentries responsible for vigilance were sent to the afterlife by Sakukaze and Kakashi together.
At this time, the bandits who were still drinking and having fun hadn't discovered any abnormality.
Sakukaze and Kakashi, who had reunited, looked at the bandits drinking and having fun in the distance, killing intent flashing in their eyes.
"Demonic Illusion: False Surroundings Technique!"
Sakukaze's eyes instantly transformed into a One-Tomoe Sharingan; although the ability of the One-Tomoe Sharingan was mainly reflected in insight, under Sakukaze's vast mental energy, this insight ability's bonus to Sakukaze's illusion technique was also very considerable.
In an instant, all the bandits in the courtyard fell into the Genjutsu.
Although there was no change in their performance at this moment, the scene they saw had already frozen.
Even if Sakukaze and Kakashi walked out swaggeringly at this moment, the bandits wouldn't discover any abnormality.
Kakashi, on the side, didn't have any hesitation; after Sakukaze used the illusion technique, he directly drew his short blade and rushed out.
Multiple cooperations had already allowed the two to accumulate not-so-bad cooperation experience.
The short blade slashed, and heads fell to the ground one by one. The eyes that died with grievances, the blood that kept surging, made the atmosphere of this courtyard look extremely weird amidst the rampant laughter.
In order to obtain resentment energy, and also to punish these evil bandits, Uchiha Sakukaze didn't let them stay immersed in the illusion technique all the time.
The moment before Kakashi's short blade fell, Sakukaze directly released the bandits' illusion technique.
Even if it was just for an instant, from the terrified eyes of the bandits whose heads had fallen, one could see their mood before death.
It was just that because Kakashi's blade was truly too fast, even if they had woken up, these bandits still had no chance to make any sound.
However, the False Surroundings Technique was ultimately just a low-level illusion technique; even if Sakukaze had the blessing of the Sharingan, because the number of targets for the technique was too many at once, ninjas with strength would still be able to break free very quickly.
Although Sakukaze and Kakashi were trying their best to pick the leaders first, because of the lack of intelligence, there would always be one or two fish that slipped through the net.
Just like at this moment, the bandit second-in-command, who possessed the strength of a Chunin but mixed among a group of underlings, had already sensed that something was wrong.
Although his knowledge as a rogue ninja wasn't very much, the vigilance as a ninja had already made him sense the problem.
The surrounding environment was truly too weird; clearly so much time had passed, but the people around were still repeating the scene just now.
If it were just one or two, that would be fine, but with so many people around, how could they all be like this?
Am I under a Genjutsu? Is there an enemy invasion?
Realizing the problem, the second-in-command's vigilance instantly rose.
Hurriedly disrupting the flow of chakra in his body, the second-in-command instantly woke up from the Genjutsu. ===== CHAPTER 11 =====
