Contrary to expectations, the smell of gunpowder smoke can be smelled from a long distance away in the city of exile called Yoneka Town.
"Are there any traces of chakra fluctuations nearby?" After stopping, Uchiha Tatsu asked Himeji next to him.
"...No." After observing carefully for a while, the girl said softly.
"Okay, be a little more careful and let's go in and check."
The city of Mikka Town was far worse than imagined. Arrows were scattered everywhere, broken blades and handles, and blood and corpses could be seen everywhere.
"...There are no traces of chakra use." Himeji said after observing many traces.
"It's okay if it doesn't happen." Uchiha Tatsu relaxed a little. As long as it wasn't caused by ninjutsu or something like that, it didn't matter much to the fog ninja.
But having said that, this place has become such a mess, it seems that the rebellion in the city is almost successful.
Himeji suddenly pointed to the distance and said, "Someone is coming."
Uchiha Chen nodded, but did not order to hide, but just stood there.
Sure enough, after a while, a group of people wearing messy standard clothes slowly emerged.
The leader was carrying an old sword on his back, with a loincloth wrapped around his body, and he was walking as if he didn't recognize his relatives.
Soon, he saw a strange figure in the distance, then waved the sword in his hand and issued a series of commands.
Because the distance was too far, Uchiha Chen couldn't hear clearly, but judging from the other party's movements, he should be preparing to come towards them.
When they got closer, the leader saw the forehead protectors on the heads of the three people, as well as the obvious signs of ninjas on their bodies.
He hesitated for a moment. As a person from the Fire Country, there was no one who didn't know about Konoha Hidden Village... even though he had been imprisoned here for many years.
He was not as knowledgeable as the other prisoners, otherwise he would not have stood out and been selected as the captain of the patrol.
Therefore, he knew the terror of ninjas.
But at this moment, the soldiers who were following behind couldn't hold it any longer, and ran forward with lewd smiles on their faces.
Obviously, they saw Mikoto and Himeji.
"A bunch of idiots!"
He cursed angrily, then slowed down, preparing to observe... If these ninjas were too powerful, he would take advantage of the situation and escape; if they were vulnerable, he wouldn't mind going up and enjoying themselves.
Looking at the enemies swarming up, Uchiha Tatsu sneered, and then ordered: "Don't leave any of them behind!"
"Yes." Mikoto and Himeji passed him and rushed forward.
Facts have proved that the gap between ordinary people and ninjas is too big. The average genin of Konoha can fight one against a hundred, let alone chuunin and jounin.
The whole situation could only be carnage.
Although Konoha has an order not to massacre civilians, these people in front of them are obviously not civilians... Some of those who can be sent here have no blood on their hands.
Seeing that the whole situation was one-sided, the leader cursed a few more times, then turned around and got into the alley, and started running away.
"Where do you want to go?" Uchiha Tatsu blocked the alley and looked at him with a half-smile.
"Ninja-sama, this matter has nothing to do with me..."
The leader had a sad face, his knees softened, and he knelt down towards the ground. But the next second, the sword he was carrying was already unsheathed, and his whole aura became extremely sharp in an instant.
"Ha~ He's still a samurai."
Uchiha Tatsumi said with a smile.
The two were four or five meters apart, and this person could rush over in an instant. This speed, for a ninja with chakra, would be at least a chunin level.
But now, the other party is just a simple warrior.
This has to be said to be an extremely rare and regrettable thing.
But the reality is this. The five major countries have vast territories and large populations, but the total number of ninjas is only more than 100,000. It is more difficult for civilians born outside the village to become ninjas than to reach the sky, which makes many talented people buried.
If it were somewhere else, Uchiha Tatsu wouldn't mind letting him go... But this is Miwa Town.
The leader looked at the brat in front of him and showed a hint of joy in his eyes, but his expression gradually solidified because he cut off the top of his head with overwhelming momentum, but it seemed like he had cut off the afterimage...
"Damn it!" He held the knife with both hands and struck horizontally again.
This time there was a crisp impact, but his face was even more ugly, because the kid in front of him stood there, waving only a kunai, and lightly blocked his full blow.
So, cut again and block again!
Repeating this three times, Uchiha Tatsu gently flipped his wrist, perfectly blocking the sword light pouring down each time!
Then... a red light flashed in his eyes, and with the sound of the sword suddenly breaking, his left hand had already grabbed the samurai's throat with one hand, pressed it against the wall and raised it directly.
"Ninja-sama...what do you want to ask...I told you...please let me go..."
"No need to go to such trouble." Uchiha Tatsumi smiled, and the red light flashed in his eyes again.
Two minutes later, he threw the dead warrior on the ground casually, then patted the dust on his body and walked out of the alley.
There were many corpses lying scattered outside the alley. Mikoto and Himeji were standing in the sun, waiting for him.
"How's it going?" Mikoto asked aloud as she saw the boy approaching.
"Well... the criminals have trapped the Yoneka Town guard in the castle tower, and it will be a matter of time before they break through. And the son of the former daimyo is at the shrine now."
"Shrine? What is he doing there?"
Uchiha Tatsumi shrugged: "Who knows."
Himeji asked from the side: "Where is Ryoma?"
Uchiha Tatsumi shook his head: "That's the problem. The last time the samurai saw Ryoma was three days ago."
"... He won't run away anymore."
"We don't rule out this possibility. Anyway, let's go to the shrine first."
…
After that, the three of them found the son of the former daimyo in the shrine without much effort.
Uchiha Tatsu finally knew why the current daimyo did not kill this potential enemy.
… The opponent is really terrible.
When the son of the former daimyo saw the Konoha ninja, he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and trembled, but he did not dare to cry and could only try to suppress it.
I thought it was a Naruto version of Hamlet, but I didn't expect it to be the eternal wise king Emperor Qiao.
Looking at the yellow liquid oozing out from between his legs, Uchiha Tatsu was a little disappointed, so he didn't waste any time and directly used his Sharingan to hypnotize him.
After a few minutes, Mikoto asked, "Do you want to kill me?"
"No need, of course someone else will kill him."
"Then put it here?"
Uchiha Tatsu thought for a moment, then smiled and said: "Tie him up and throw him into the castle tower."
"OK."
Mikoto nodded, and then after tying each other tightly with Himeji, they playfully tied a bow at the end.
Uchiha Tatsun picked up the rope, then turned and walked out of the shrine:
"Let's go, the Mist Ninja is still waiting to kill us."
