Chapter 41: Change of Identity

 

In the dense forest, the roles of the hunter and prey areconstantly alternating.

 

Uchiha, who was suddenly attacked and lost a companion, suddenly turned from a cat into a mouse.

 

Wearing black vests and masks that concealed their identities, the two Uchiha men were like two nimble wild cats, stretching their bodies freely in the woods, with their speed increasing from time to time.

 

They were willing to use up more chakra in order to achieve faster speed and explosive power in order to escape from the close range of attack by Ryosuke and the others.

 

They did not hide their intention to quickly distance themselves and launch a counterattack, and both Ryosuke and Souji could see it.

 

"fireball."

 

"Wind Escape, Wind Blowing Willow!"

 

The Uchiha, who was suspected to be a jonin, quickly formed hand seals with his hands, and while keeping some distance between them, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Ryosuke and the other two who were chasing him from behind, and spit out a huge fireball like a boulder from his mouth.

 

And beside him, without any prior communication.

 

Relying solely on combat experience, the remaining Uchiha Chunin also formed hand seals, and chakra flowed through his body, forming a storm under a special operation mode, which was sprayed out of his mouth.

 

The strong wind was like a huge wave in the ocean, sweeping the fireball and burning it at an even hotter temperature, crashing towards Ryosuke and the other two.

 

The fireball, which was originally like a huge rock, instantly turned into a sea of fire under the blowing of the strong wind.

 

The high temperature mixed with the sea of fire made the air, which was already a bit stuffy under the scorching sun, even hotter.

 

Even the arrogant Uchiha were not sure they could resist the Hyuga clan's close combat skills, so they could only run away and keep their distance.

 

Sometimes your enemies and competitors know you better than you know yourself.

 

As rivals, the Uchiha clan had fought against the Hyuga clan before, whether they were still studying in the Ninja School or they had graduated and officially become ninjas. They had all fought against each other.

 

Therefore, the two Uchiha clan members were well aware of the horror of the Hyuga clan's physical skills combined with the Byakugan.

 

In most cases where all factors are equal, they will be completely defeated in close combat.

 

As long as they have the ability to activate their Byakugan and are talented enough to master the gentlefist technique, the Hyuga clan is almost invincible in close combat. Only through ninjutsu or genjutsu can one have a chance to defeat them.

 

"Eight Trigrams Palm."

 

Ryosuke stopped chasing with a calm expression.

 

Beside him, Souji and Hoshicai had already swung their palms one after another, and highly concentrated chakra gushed out from the acupuncture points in their palms and blasted towards the sea of fire in front of them.

 

Their Byakugan had already seen through the flow of chakra in the two Uchiha's bodies.

 

They had already taken precautions long before they formed the seals.

 

boom--

 

The nearly invisible, highly concentrated chakra collided with the sea of fire in the air, making a dull and loud roar.

 

Immediately afterwards, the invisible concentrated chakra was engulfed by the sea of fire.

 

That Uchiha Jonin had great attainments in changing the nature of chakra. He only had a C-level fire ninjutsu, but he used it with a power that was almost as powerful as an A-level ninjutsu.

 

Even under the influence of the Uchiha Chunin's wind-style ninjutsu, the originally limited range was expanded, making up for the shortcoming that the Great Fireball Technique was difficult to hit people.

 

Fortunately, these two palms managed to block the attack of this compound ninjutsu, causing it to explode in mid-air.

 

Wow——

 

The wind was whistling, and sparks flew in all directions with the explosion as the center.

 

The dense forest in dry weather is already flammable. In the explosion caused by the sea of fire, the trees became fuel for the fire in the blink of an eye, and the raging flames surrounded Ryosuke and the other two.

 

In the face of thick smoke and raging fire, Ryosuke and the other two remained calm.

The two Uchiha soldiers who were temporarily trapped in the sea of fire and hiding outside the circle of fire quickly moved around the circle of fire.

 

Rustle, rustle——

 

In the dense forest, countless shurikens shot out from all directions like water drops.

 

The iron weapon emitting a cold glow swept across the scorching flames and pounced towards Ryosuke and the others.

 

But unfortunately, with the Byakugan, Ryosuke and the others had already noticed the movements and whereabouts of the two. Even though their shuriken throwing techniques were very sophisticated, which were unique to the Uchiha clan, they still could not avoid the observation of the Byakugan.

 

"You two don't have to worry about me. Follow the plan and chase them to entangle them, forcing them to consume chakra. Keep your distance and avoid close combat. I will catch up as soon as possible."

 

Ryosuke spoke softly as a reminder.

 

"This is an order."

 

He went on to emphasize.

 

Based on the amount of chakra and physical fitness, it was not easy for him to keep up with the speed in this kind of battle above Chunin, not to mention that the two Uchiha people were willing to spend chakra to speed up.

 

The key to victory is not to let yourself become a burden in this battle.

 

"yes."

 

Souji and Hoshicai did not hesitate for long. They answered in unison, and chakra gushed out from the acupuncture points all over their bodies, as if a layer of protective film was wrapped around their body surface.

 

Under the raging fire, they jumped up and chased after the two dark shadows in the dense forest.

 

This was a secret technique that only members of the main family can learn.

 

However, some talented Hyuga members were able to comprehend some application techniques from some clues.

 

The method that Souji and the others just used is a simplified version of revolving heaven.

 

The condensed chakra shield, although not as hard as the real revolving heaven and not worthy of the title of absolute defense, can still temporarily avoid the burning of fire.

 

Seeing the four people occasionally fighting and their figures going away, Ryosuke turned his head and looked at the raging fire all around him. He also circulated his chakra, condensed a chakra shield on his body surface, and left the sea of fire.

 

Forest fires caused by battles like this often occur in ninjutsu duels, but there is definitely no way to distract yourself from solving them during a fight. You can only wait until the battle is over and then come back to clean up the mess.

 

Now, after the four people left one after another, Ryosuke has returned from the light to the dark.

 

The Uchiha clan's Sharingan does not have the ability to see through things like the Hyuga clan.

 

They had no way to keep their lock on the enemy, so Ryosuke had gone from being a burden to a surprise attack.

 

It can play a decisive role in battle.

 

In fact, as long as he did not appear in the sight of the two Uchiha men, they would always feel psychological pressure and would not dare to counterattack against Souji and the others too recklessly.

 

Even though, he was just a young child.

 

"Next, it's time for the real battle."

 

Leaping alone in the forest, far behind a few people, Ryosuke's heart was burning with joy.

 

There are many factors that can affect the final outcome of a battle between ninjas, including strategy, strength, and environment...

 

All previous plans were just to make the strength of both sides relatively equal, so as to ensure that the battle was always under control.

 

At the same time, it also shows how Ryosuke transitionshimself from a paper-talker to an experienced general ashe is involved in a real life-and-death battle.

 

And now that the attempt at strategy is over, the next step is... the show of strength.
