Chapter 69: Adamantine Sealing Chains!
Northeast of the Land of Bears.
Shisui Uchiha, Shirakumo Hayama, and Hyuga Homura, the three of them, followed along the edge of Hell Valley heading north.
They were searching for a narrow spot that could cross Hell Valley.
Soon, thanks to Hyuga Homura’s Byakugan, the three found a relatively narrow position.
Shirakumo Hayama took out a bundle of grappling hook from the storage scroll.
“Let me do it.” Shisui Uchiha took the grappling hook proactively, then aimed at a big tree on the opposite side of Hell Valley, his three-tomoe Sharingan suddenly activating!
Whoosh—
The grappling hook shot out like an arrow off the string, precisely piercing a giant tree on the opposite side of Hell Valley two hundred meters away. Amid the taut buzzing sound, a rope spanned the abyss surging with poisonous mist.
Shirakumo Hayama tied the other end to a big tree on this side, then Shisui Uchiha was the first to step onto the rope, holding his breath to prevent inhaling the poison gas, and quickly passed through the Hell Valley filled with toxic gas.
As he was about to reach the opposite side, Shisui Uchiha drew a kunai, body flickered forward, his three-tomoe Sharingan alertly scanning the surroundings.
Only after confirming there were no ambushes or traps did Shisui signal to his two teammates, Shirakumo Hayama and Hyuga Homura, on the opposite side of Hell Valley.
Then the two of them also crossed the Hell Valley filled with toxic gas by stepping on the rope.
“Cough cough—” Just after arriving on the Land of Bears territory on the opposite side of Hell Valley, Shirakumo Hayama couldn’t help coughing twice, feeling alarmed at the trace of poison gas he had inhaled earlier.
“Shirakumo-senior, are you alright?” Shisui Uchiha asked with concern.
Hyuga Homura also used his Byakugan to check Shirakumo Hayama’s condition, and after confirming it was not serious, nodded to Shisui.
“It won’t affect us, let’s keep moving forward.” Shirakumo Hayama shook his head, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
The three moved swiftly through the forest treetops in a triangular formation.
Shisui Uchiha was at the forefront, Hyuga Homura with his Byakugan activated on the right side of the team, and Shirakumo Hayama on the left side of the team.
They had just gone not far when Hyuga Homura suddenly issued a sharp warning: “There’s a situation ahead!”
Shisui Uchiha landed on a treetop, and Shirakumo Hayama also stopped.
“So… such massive chakra…” When Hyuga Homura stopped, his Byakugan with bulging veins was full of shock.
“Direction!” Shisui Uchiha turned his head and asked.
“Northwest of us! Two kilometers away!” Hyuga Homura reported quickly.
As a special jonin of the Hyuga Clan, Byakugan reconnaissance at this distance was already very excellent.
The three cautiously and alertly made their way toward the northwest direction.
Soon, they arrived at a border where the Land of Bears met the Land of Earth.
On the Land of Bears side of the territory, three Stone Ninja were battling two women.
Shisui Uchiha and the other two hid in the shadows, also watching the center of this battlefield in disbelief.
They saw a red-haired woman with three golden chains behind her dancing like living creatures, binding two Rock Ninja in mid-air, while the third was pierced through the chest by a chain and nailed to a tree.
Not far away, a black-haired girl stood with arms crossed, watching coldly.
“Cough!” Kai spat out a mouthful of blood, looking at the golden chain that pierced his abdomen and nailed him to the tree, staring in shock at the red-haired woman opposite him.
“Explosion Release: Landmine Fist!” Kai endured the pain piercing his abdomen with great effort, concentrating chakra in his right fist, and swung it at the golden chain.
Boom!
Immediately, the touched golden chain exploded massively, and Kai thereby broke free of the restraint, staggering to the ground.
The section of golden chain remaining on his body gradually dissipated after losing chakra, but the blood hole in his pierced abdomen gushed blood.
He gasped for air heavily, no longer having any trace of underestimation toward the two women before him.
That red hair also reminded Kai of the Uzumaki Clan, once famous in the ninja world for sealing jutsu!
“To think it’s a remnant of the Uzumaki Clan…” Kai gasped heavily, lifting his eyes to look at his two teammates bound by the Adamantine Sealing Chains, pondering how to rescue them from these two mysterious ninja.
“Captain! Run! Don’t worry about us!” One of the bound Stone Ninja roared: “Deliver the intelligence back to the village!”
“Shut up!” Kai gritted his teeth, enduring the sharp pain, suddenly pushing off with both feet, launching an attack toward the black-haired girl nearby.
As a member of the explosion squad, a jonin ninja of Rock Village deeply influenced by the ‘Will of Stone,’ Kai did not want to abandon his two teammates just like that.
Thus, he prepared to attack the black-haired girl who was watching from the side.
Because she appeared much younger than the red-haired woman, with that leisurely demeanor seeming to lack any combat alertness, it made Kai feel he had found an opening.
“Foolish!” The black-haired girl snorted coldly and also lunged toward Kai.
Kai’s fist gathered Explosion Release chakra, attempting to deliver a heavy strike to the opponent with Explosion Release.
He was quite confident in his taijutsu and Explosion Release combination technique. As long as it was a close-range attack, once hit by his fist, Explosion Release would trigger, and the enemy would be blasted in the face by a massive explosion like stepping on a landmine!
This move had never failed!
However, in the instant just before their fists and feet were about to clash, Kai saw the scarlet Sharingan under the black hair of the girl opposite him!
In that moment, Kai’s body lagged for a moment.
Uchiha Hikari had already closed in, delivering a fierce whip kick that sent the opponent flying.
Cough—!!
The sharp pain of crashing into the rock made Kai break free from the illusion technique. Leaning against a giant boulder, Kai felt as if several of his bones were broken all over his body.
He looked at the blood he had spat on the ground, struggling to lift his head to look at the black-haired girl opposite him.
‘Uchiha Clan! It’s the Uchiha Clan!’ Kai’s eyes were full of terror.
When battling the Uchiha Clan, absolutely do not look into their eyes!
This was something every ninja who had been on the battlefield in the ninja world had been warned about!
And Kai had also fought against Konoha’s Uchiha ninja during the Third Great Ninja War, deeply knowing the terrifying combat power of this clan.
In a one-on-one against a ninja of the same level, he was simply no match for the opponent!
‘Uchiha Clan…’ Kai looked at the black-haired girl before him.
‘Uzumaki Clan…’ He looked again with full astonishment at the red-haired woman not far away.
Hoshigakure, Land of Bears, what exactly had happened?!
“Still not proficient enough.” The red-haired woman sighed lightly, and another golden chakra chain extended over, binding up Kai who had lost his combat power.
The Adamantine Sealing Chains were not only weapons but also a sealing barrier. The number of chakra chains one could produce was closely related to one’s own strength.
Uzumaki Kushina, who was still a beginner, could barely manage three chakra chains.
“No… someone!” Uzumaki Kushina, who was in the midst of binding Kai and sealing the three together with a barrier, suddenly sensed something and immediately looked in one direction.
Uchiha Hikari instantly raised her hand, shooting several shuriken in that direction.
In the forest, the discovered Shisui Uchiha hurriedly threw out several shuriken to block in a panic.
Amid the clanging sounds of metal collisions, Shisui Uchiha suddenly felt a chill run down his scalp.
He saw that black-haired girl charging toward him like a cannonball!
