Chapter 21: Ambushed, Two-Tomoe Sharingan Achieved! (Please follow and read!)

~7 min read 1,233 words

The night passed without incident. On the second morning, the entire caravan set off again after eating breakfast.

Because they were gradually moving away from Konoha, the three members of the Fugaku Squad also brought out their full vigilance.

However, after traveling for nearly ten days, they still hadn't been attacked by Jiaocheng Yuan's competitors, which once made the members of the Fugaku Squad doubt whether Jiaocheng Yuan's intelligence was accurate.

But even so, the vigilance of the three members of the Fugaku Squad did not let up.

Although they were now at the border of the Land of Fire, there was still a considerable distance to the place the caravan was heading.

Still the same as before, Sakukaze and Kakashi guarded the caravan on the left and right.

After passing through the dense forest ahead, everyone would officially enter the territory of the Grass Country.

However, this time, Sakukaze and Kakashi's expressions became slightly serious.

Looking at each other, solemn expressions flashed in the eyes of both Sakukaze and Kakashi.

There are enemies!

This was the conclusion Sakukaze and Kakashi reached instantly.

Looking up at Uchiha Fugaku at the front of the team, sure enough, as they expected, Uchiha Fugaku nodded calmly.

Without alerting the enemy, Sakukaze and Kakashi acted as if they hadn't noticed anything, escorting the caravan forward.

However, at this moment, the two of them were already on full alert.

As the caravan entered the dense forest, the surrounding environment suddenly became quiet, as if suppressing something.

The next moment, several kunai shot out fiercely from a hidden place.

Accompanied by the sound of breaking through the air, they fiercely pierced into Uchiha Fugaku, Sakukaze, and Kakashi.

"Ah!!!"

As the muffled sound of the kunai hitting the target rang out, bursts of exclamations suddenly sounded in the caravan. At the same time, four figures slowly revealed themselves from the dense forest.

The four vertical forehead protectors on their heads represented their identity as Rain Hidden ninjas.

The four people who revealed their figures still carried a sharp murderous aura on their faces.

"Everyone, leave no one alive!"

At this moment, everyone in the caravan showed a look of horror on their faces, especially Jiaocheng Yuan, who was the person in charge of the caravan.

Facing the assassins sent by his competitors, others might still have a chance to keep their lives, but it was absolutely impossible for him to be safe and sound.

Jiaocheng Yuan wanted to run away, but how could he run away when facing ninjas?

Inevitably, Jiaocheng Yuan's heart was filled with despair.

Of course, in this despair, there was also a faint expectation.

As a new squad in Konoha, the Fugaku Squad wouldn't be killed so easily, right?

Especially Uchiha Fugaku, as the next Uchiha clan head, he must not be solved so easily.

As long as Uchiha Fugaku was still alive, he, Jiaocheng Yuan, still had a chance.

There was no help for it; Jiaocheng Yuan could only pray in his heart that the three members of the Fugaku Squad could stand up again.

It seemed as if heaven had heard Jiaocheng Yuan's prayer; the four Rain Hidden ninjas, who were just about to act, instantly showed shocked expressions on their faces.

Because the three Konoha ninjas they had just killed with kunai had almost simultaneously turned into smoke, leaving only a wooden stake in place.

Body Replacement Technique? When?

Such a thought flashed through the minds of all four of them.

You must know that they were all Rain Hidden Chunin, ninjas from the hidden village most skilled in assassination techniques.

Not to mention Uchiha Fugaku, who was an adult ninja after all.

But facing two teenagers, Sakukaze and Kakashi, they didn't even succeed in their first sneak attack. How could this be?

The four Rain Hidden ninjas found it hard to accept this fact, but years of assassination training still allowed them to stabilize their minds quickly.

For an assassin, one must never lose their composure at any time. Otherwise, the only path leading to them would be death.

Quickly calming down, the four of them instantly dispersed their positions, vigilantly searching for the figures of the Fugaku Squad.

The guys in the caravan were just small characters; as long as they could solve the ninjas responsible for the escort in Konoha, they could easily complete the mission assigned by the employer.

"Are you looking for me?"

Just as the four Rain Hidden ninjas were still vigilantly looking for the figures of the Fugaku Squad, a crisp voice sounded in their ears.

Even though the weather was quite mild, the four Rain Hidden ninjas felt a large amount of cold sweat break out on their bodies at this moment.

"When!"

Turning their heads in disbelief, all four of them saw Sakukaze's figure not far behind them.

Even though they had been paying attention to the situation around them, how could this brat bypass them and appear behind them?

Looking at Sakukaze's handsome face full of smiles, the four Rain Hidden ninjas couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

"Remember, when you ambush and assassinate in your next life, you must control your murderous aura, otherwise it's very easy to be discovered, you know."

"Demonic Illusion: Shackling Stakes Technique!"

Without giving the four of them time to react, Uchiha Sakukaze directly activated his Sharingan and cast a genjutsu on the four of them.

The next moment, the four Rain Hidden ninjas, who hadn't reacted yet, were directly frozen in place by Uchiha Sakukaze.

At the same time, a cold light flashed, and a head instantly fell from the head of one of the Rain Hidden ninjas.

Kakashi, who had long had a deep tacit understanding with Sakukaze, was ready to attack the moment Sakukaze made his move.

Accompanied by the stimulation of the bloody smell, the Rain Hidden ninjas, who were already terrified because they were controlled by Sakukaze, had their fear in their eyes almost uncontrollable, surging out crazily.

The three remaining Rain Hidden ninjas frantically disrupted their chakra, and even bit the tips of their tongues, wanting to break free from Sakukaze's genjutsu.

But after such a long time of growth, Sakukaze's genjutsu was no longer something that ordinary Chunin could break free from.

No matter how much the three of them tried, apart from deepening the fear in their hearts, there was no other gain.

Perhaps if they had enough time, they would have hope of breaking free.

But in battle, time is a fatal factor, and Sakukaze and Kakashi couldn't possibly give them any chance to break free.

After the last blade fell, Kakashi didn't hesitate at all and drew his short blade again.

As the cold light emerged, three large heads rolled to the ground again.

Accompanied by four pairs of eyes that died with lingering resentment, the large amount of resentment energy that was constantly being born also came to an abrupt end.

But this was enough for Sakukaze. As the resentment energy just produced poured into his eyes, the One-Tomoe in Sakukaze's blood-red eyes was rotating rapidly.

Bursts of stinging pain came from his eyes, and Sakukaze knew that he had broken through the next barrier of the Sharingan.

Sure enough, just after the Tomoe in Sakukaze's eyes stopped rotating, the original one Tomoe had turned into two, quietly staying in Sakukaze's eyes. ===== CHAPTER 22 =====
