The Exploding Tags hidden in the ceiling, under the desk, and in the corners of the wall ignited simultaneously, exploding instantly in the shocked and panicked eyes of several people!
"Boom!"
The violent explosion echoed through the Late Night, flames soared, and raging fire engulfed the four Root Ninjas. The air current instantly shattered the house's frame. The small house where Uchiha Nen had lived for 11 years was completely reduced to rubble.
Two figures emitting black smoke landed in a sorry state. Although they had managed to escape the explosion range, they were both seriously injured. Half of the strong man's mask had been blown off.
"Ding and Si are dead. That brat set up traps in advance." The strong man mechanically reported the situation, blood dripping down his arm, but he seemed to feel no pain.
At this moment, the sound of earth and stone rolling came from the ruins. In the area that originally belonged to the bedroom, broken tiles shifted, and Uchiha Nen pushed aside the bed board and walked out of the underground tunnel.
"Uchiha Nen, you have already angered Lord Danzo. Your actions are no different from a Rogue Ninja!"
Figures flew around, and more than twenty Root Ninjas wearing masks landed one after another, surrounding the ruins.
Nen looked around. Although everyone around him had a strong aura, there was no fear in his eyes. "What great prestige. An organization I've never even heard of dares to come directly to our Uchiha Clan Territory to arrest people?"
"First of all, whether it's the Uchiha Clan Territory or the Hyuga Clan Territory, it's all village land. As long as it's village land, my Root has the right to arrest people. Secondly, this place is on the very edge of the West District. It's debatable whether it counts as part of the Uchiha Clan Territory."
"Rest assured, the surrounding area of several hundred meters has been covered by a Barrier. Even if the Police Force comes, they won't find anything unusual!"
"Hmph, who would stand up for you, a small fry with little influence!"
The Root Ninjas were aggressive and unreasonable, acting as if "I am the greatest under heaven."
Nen cautiously drew a Kunai. "You attacked me first. I really don't understand. It's just refusing to join Root, so why is Danzo in such a hurry to eliminate me?"
"Shut up, how dare you disrespect Lord Danzo!" Someone immediately shouted angrily.
Nen sneered, "All I know is that in Hidden Leaf Village, we are loyal to the Hokage. Aren't you afraid of the Hokage's blame for acting like this?"
No one answered his question. The Root Ninja with a monkey-face mask at the head tilted his head slightly and glanced at the sensory Ninja beside him.
The latter immediately understood, bent down, and touched the ground with one finger. After a moment, he raised his head and reported, "It is undoubtedly the real body!"
The monkey-face Ninja raised his right hand high, his voice cold: "Confirm that the target has no possibility of joining. Execute Plan B, eliminate the target."
Nen swallowed slightly, subconsciously took half a step back, and the only thought in his mind was:
Calm down, calm down, if it were the senior, what would he do?
With the monkey-face Ninja's order, everyone immediately took action, tacitly opening the distance.
"Fire Style: Fire Dragon Bullet!"
"Wind Release: Great Air Cannon!"
The flames danced like a raging dragon, rolling in, and converged with four vacuum cannonballs in mid-air, dividing into four directions, up, down, left, and right, and rushing towards Uchiha Nen.
Nen's eyes moved slightly. With the Sharingan, he immediately noticed that behind the wind and fire combined Ninjutsu, there were also Shuriken like a storm!
"Wooden Style: Wooden Dome Wall!"
He quickly completed the hand seals, the earth and stone loosened, and a row of wooden pillars rose from all around, curving into an arched wall to protect himself.
The field of vision suddenly darkened, but then there was a loud noise. The Wooden Dome Wall was crumbling under the bombardment of the wind and fire Ninjutsu, and dense Shuriken were nailed into the wooden wall, making a dense sound.
"Bang bang bang bang!"
Inside the arched wall, Nen's hand seals didn't stop; his fingers moved rapidly, and both palms slammed onto the ground simultaneously.
A ripple suddenly spread out, and the ground undulated like the surface of water. One after another, crimson wooden pillars burst from the earth, like the tentacles of some giant octopus, extending in all directions.
"Wooden Style: Adamantine Entangling Trees!"
The wooden pillars shot out, enveloping all the Root Ninja around, casting grotesque and distorted shadows in the moonlight.
Everyone displayed their unique abilities. Some used the Body Flicker Technique to escape the attack range, some directly released powerful Ninjutsu to forcefully shatter the wooden pillars in front of them, and some were simply strong enough to block the attacks with the Ninja tools in their hands.
Nen's forehead was slightly sweaty because the range of the technique was too large, and he couldn't meticulously control every wooden pillar. He could only concentrate all his energy on one spot, aiming at what he considered the greatest threat.
That monkey-faced masked Root Ninja!
Several wooden pillars twisted and intertwined in mid-air, forming a drill-like shape that stabbed straight ahead, with a swift momentum like a knight's lance.
Being a squad leader in Root, he naturally had some skills. The monkey-faced Ninja stretched out his hands, and accompanied by a noisy buzzing sound, a black cloud emerged from all over his body, swirling and expanding several times, rushing up densely.
The wooden drill pierced straight into the black cloud, advancing rapidly, and was about to reach the monkey-faced Ninja, but with the infiltrating and subtle gnawing sound, "crunch, crunch" incessantly, the wooden thorn became pitted and fragile in the blink of an eye.
The monkey-faced Ninja jumped back to create distance, and when the black cloud dispersed, the originally majestic wooden thorn had become a bare round log.
"Secret Technique: Parasitic Destruction Insect: Insect Sphere!"
The buzzing intensified, and the black cloud swirled out again, condensing into a black ball that broke through the air!
Nen immediately jumped out of the broken wooden wall and took a closer look. It was not a black cloud at all, but countless tiny black insects!
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
He didn't hesitate, and while retreating, he spat out a scarlet fireball, trying to burn the swarm of insects to ashes.
But the expected effect did not appear. The fireball wailed and disintegrated, turning into streams of flames and dissipating, while the black insects devoured the flames!
"Useless, my Parasitic Destruction Insects are not afraid of mere Fire Release." Under the monkey-faced mask, the Root Ninja's mouth curled up slightly.
"If Ninjutsu is ineffective..." Nen's mind was rapidly thinking of a solution, but an invisible attack came from behind!
A Root Ninja with orange hair put his hands together, aiming at Nen's back: "Mind Body Switch Technique!"
Caught off guard, a strange mental force poured into Nen's body, trying to put his soul to sleep.
A look of anger flashed in Nen's eyes, and the orange-haired Ninja suddenly groaned, his body slumped down, and bright red blood flowed from the cracks in the mask.
Although this move did not work, it successfully interrupted Nen's thinking and delayed the time. The dark swarm of insects was about to fly in front of him.
At the critical moment, Nen suddenly snapped the chain around his neck and held a Shuriken in his palm.
This Shuriken was the first gift he bought for himself when he was 5 years old, and it was because of it that he met Orochimaru and had his own and his companions' Secret Base... and found his belonging in the Hidden Leaf Village.
A trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and using the technique Tong Ren taught him, he threw the Shuriken towards the swarm of insects.
The hand seals Orochimaru used when performing the technique had already been replayed in his mind thousands of times, and he knew them by heart.
He made hand seals, "Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique!!!"
A series of afterimages flashed in the air, and dense Shuriken were created out of thin air, shooting into the Insect Sphere with a sharp sound of breaking through the air. As his Chakra poured in frantically, these Shuriken seemed endless, constantly emerging.
Soon, the Insect Sphere disintegrated, countless shattered insect corpses were blown away by the strong wind, and the Shuriken swarm crossed the night sky, like a winding steel dragon, rushing towards the monkey-faced Ninja.
