"HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?! Isn't he just a Gennin trash? How can he open the Legendary Mangekyo?" Aburame asked aloud with an ugly expression.
Aburame Suika and Yamanaka Koi as Donzo Root members; are among the highest combat personnel. That also means receiving the highest clearance of information. Of course, they know a thing or two about the secret of the Uchiha Clan.
"Attack!" Yamanaka Koi shouts and presses his hand in the air and directly uses the Yamanaka Clan's secret technique; "Heart Switch Technique !"
At the same time, Aburame Suika's mouth agitated and spat out a black mist; "Secret Technique – Poison Dust Technique !" The violent scene shook everyone's nerves.
Shizune's expression shifts and she yells; "Shin, be careful. This black mist is a nano-level poisonous insect. Once inhaled, you will die !"
" Don't worry !" Shin said as he raised his head and the Sharingan spun crazily. The next moment, the chakra fills with disasters all around, reabsorbed into Shin's body like a frenzy.
" Boy, as long as the poison mist is one meter close to you..." Suika's smile stagnates from what is happening in front of her. The poison mist that was heading toward Shin stopped by a wall of scarlet aura three feet away from Shin.
The next moment, the rolling eye power in the sky shook and turned into a terrifying skeleton. The originally small and narrow cave was filled to the brim. A pair of blood-red flames flickered in the eye socket exuding a breathtaking aura.
Puchi!
The oncoming poisonous mist burst and burned by the flames. It turns into dust and is scattered on the ground.
" Susanoo, " a voice chimed as if it was singing a pure hymn.
" Impossible! You are obviously under the 'Heart Switch Technique'! " Aburame Suiks shouted in denial. Her attack combo with Yamanaka Koi's secret technique has never gone wrong before. Plus, the Susanoo appearance after the execution of the technique makes it even more baffling.
" Ha ha! Have you forgotten that my Uchiha Clan is best at Genjutsu in addition to Fire Release? " Shin sneered.
Suika's expression suddenly changed, she hurriedly moved but found that her whole body seemed to be restrained by invisible shackles.
"I, my body can't move, when did you inflict Genjutsu on me!"
" What's wrong? Are you afraid now? " Shin sneered, " It's too late! "
Roar!
Susanoo bellowed and the right skeletal hand shot toward them like lightning.
Upon realizing there was no expectancy left, Suika made her final move to inflict harm on Shin. " Since you want me dead, then you are coming with me! Secret Technique – Insect Explosion Technique! " The poisonous insects all over her body instantly became restless, and the surface of Suika's body quickly bulged up.
Boom!
The poisonous insects exploded instantly, a powerful shockwave swept out, and the dark green poisonous gas was scattered with the wind.
" Everyone! Be careful and don't inhale the poisonous gases! " Shizune cries out.
Suddenly, the world started to spin around them, causing dizziness and nausea to force them down to the ground. As they recovered from the sickly feeling, they realized that the surroundings had no traces of fighting and there was no explosion of poisonous insects.
Shizune balanced herself as the others helped each other to get up from the ground. She later looks around for Shin but finds Yamanaka Koi and Aburame Suika laughing like idiots near the entrance of the cave. Figured that the two Root members are still under the effects of the genjutsu.
"This … What kind of Genjutsu is this, it can control all of our minds in an instant, the battle just now was an illusion."
"The two Jonin-level ninjas didn't even get a chance to realize that they were under a genjutsu. There was no way out of the trap. This is too dangerous. "
However, watching Aburame Suika and Yamanaka Koi. There was a lingering pulsation of fear in their heart and their spine remained frigid as the thought continued. If Shin was serious, he could kill all of them in an instant. For them, They are ready to die on the battlefield and have made psychological preparations for such. To die a heroic death, but this kind of death is unacceptable.
"All right, those who are willing to kill must be ready to be killed themselves. They wanted to kill me, so I killed them. That should be very normal, right?" Shin spoke as if had done something trivial, scanning the people around him with a scrutinizing gaze. Then, he walked toward the two Root members to repay the deeds.
"Yes, Shin is right. Yamanaka Koi's temperament is too indifferent. He even dares to kill his comrade. Even if this news was sent back to Konoha, they couldn't escape punishment. Instead of leaving these two in the team. It's better to get rid of them. "
" I, on behalf of the team. I would like to speak. Since Aburame Suika and Yamanaka Koi are no longer liable for leading this team as you can see in their situation now. I would like to ask Shin to lead this team since it is proven that you are the strongest among us. " the ninjas in the cave joined one after another.
Shin just smiles watching the happening around him as he continues his walk. He muze that there is no shortage of fence hoppers in all worlds. But the only thing that satisfies him is they didn't mention abandoning their comrade or attacking him at the moment of notice. Either way, he doesn't mind killing them all.
" Shin, you can't kill them. " Shizune suddenly persuaded; "Donzo is a vengeful person. The instant the report about his Roots member's death reached him. You will be labeled as a traitor. " hearing what Shizune said, everyone's expression changed.
It is known by many within the rank of how much The Roots operate. However, with Donzo's status among the higher-ups of the village, many people simply silence themselves just to evade him. Moreover, Donzo's hostility toward the Uchiha Clan is also seen by many.
"So, you don't want anything bad to happen to me? " Shin smiles and looks at Shizune with warmth.
Shizune's expression stagnated, and a hint of blush appeared on her cheeks, and finally nodded "I don't want anything to happen to everyone."
" So that's the case, I understand your worries." Shin ponders for a while and smiles at Shizune; " As Shizune said, it will bring more harm than good if two idiotic dunderheads were dead. But they won't escape punishment, so they must be detained first. "
As the others apprehend the two Root ninjas. Shin familiarized himself with the information gathered the current situation they are in and the enemies that are closing near their position.
"Since everyone has spoken, I will take the leading position. We will rest ourselves here and prepare for the upcoming battle. We have three days until the enemy reaches us. So, we use everything we have, and when they arrive we will take the initiative to fight. "
Shin looked at Shizune and said; "There is no need to worry, no companion will be abandoned as long as I stand and my chakra continues to flow within me. That is my Ninja Way. "
His indifferent voice caused the hearts of everyone present to tremble in awe. Originally, Uchiha Shin was simply a waste, shy, and insecure fool to them. But now, because of everything that happened in front of them, this label was completely overturned.
Whether it was using Genjutsu to defeat Yamanaka Koi and Aburame Suika, or taking the initiative to attack. In their eyes, Uchiha Shin had stepped forward bravely for his companions. This gave them an inexplicable sense of security as his companions.
