Not long after, the soup ninjas saw a large group of Konoha ninjas appearing in the distance.
In the hot spring town, the civilians panicked and dodged when they saw a large group of Konoha ninjas suddenly breaking in.
Uchiha Yuan walked in the middle of the street, followed by two Konoha ninjas. He looked at the buildings on both sides of the street and found that the most common ones here were hot spring bathhouses.
In some restaurants, graceful hostesses leaned on the railings, observing them with curiosity. Some bolder hostesses even smiled sweetly, waving handkerchiefs and calling them up to drink.
The Konoha Ninja's base in the hot spring town was a private house. The landlord was a businessman who left in a hurry after receiving the rent.
Inside the house, Uchiha Yuan was sitting on the tatami, and he could see the courtyard outside from his direction.
Kneeling on his left was a blond young man in his twenties. He was a member of Uchiha Yuan's direct guard team, named Yamanaka Kino.
There are thirty ninjas in the direct guard team, and the lowest one has the strength of an elite Chunin.
Yamanaka Kino said with some concern: "Captain, it's not a good idea for us to be stationed here so obviously. I'm afraid that the spies from Kumogakure have already passed the news on."
Uchiha Yuan smiled slightly, revealing an expression that everything was under control, and said, "What I want is for the Cloud Ninja to come and find us. The order given to me by the headquarters is to station troops in this area and guard against the Cloud Ninja's attack."
"But I believe the best defense is offense. Instead of constantly being on guard against the Cloud Ninja attacking from nowhere, it's better to lure them out with our arrangements."
Yamanaka Kino said, "I understand what the captain means, but if we are stationed in the hot spring town, I am afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among the hot spring ninjas. They may protest to the village."
Uchiha Yuan waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "Should I care about the protest of a mere soup ninja?"
Yamanaka Kino added, "But the village might reprimand you, Captain, for this."
Uchiha Yuan smiled coldly, "Yamada, I am Uchiha, the reprimand from the village is just nonsense in my eyes, don't take it to heart at all."
At this time, in a valley north of Wenquan Town.
A team of Cloud Ninjas gathered in a cave. In the light of the campfire, a Cloud Ninja looked at the note in his hand and said, "News just came in that a team of 100 Konoha Ninjas appeared in Hot Spring Town. The ninja leading them is called Uchiha Fuu."
"Uchiha Yuan! That seems to be the name that Raikage-sama once mentioned."
"Indeed, Lord Brama highly praised his abilities, calling him a taijutsu genius rarely seen in a century."
"Humph, no matter how talented he is, he's just a brat now."
"I heard that Lord Brama's arm was injured after fighting with him."
"I heard from the captain that Lord Brama's arm is seriously injured and it is difficult for ordinary medical ninjas to treat it."
"How could that brat have hurt Lord Brama so badly?"
Several Cloud Ninjas showed expressions of disbelief.
"Yes, I heard from the captain that Lord Raikage is very concerned about this brat and is sending people to collect intelligence on him."
A Cloud Ninja suddenly grinned and said, "Haha, if we capture this Uchiha brat today, Lord Raikage will definitely be very happy."
"Then we'll act tonight."
"Let us avenge Lord Brama and capture this Uchiha brat. A hundred-man team of Konoha ninjas can't stop us."
Tonight, the moonlight is exceptionally bright, like a layer of silver gauze spread over the earth.
At this moment, the hot spring town is bustling with activity.
After the panic caused by the arrival of the Konoha ninja, the whole town quickly returned to its former bustle.
Businessmen and tourists from all over the world were either bathing in the hot spring or drinking and flirting with cute girls.
In a house in the center of the town, several Tang Shinobi were discussing matters, and they all had anxious looks on their faces.
"What should we do now? The patrolling ninjas ahead have discovered traces of Cloud Ninja activity. They are likely coming for those Konoha ninjas."
"Damn it! Why did those Konoha ninjas come to our place? Their war with the Kumo ninjas will definitely destroy this place."
"What news has come from the village?"
"Not yet. I'm afraid the village doesn't know how to deal with these Konoha ninjas and doesn't dare to force them to evacuate."
"No matter what, we must protect the hot spring town from being destroyed by the Konoha ninja and the Kumo ninja."
"Originally we wanted to remain neutral, but if we want to protect the hot spring town from being destroyed, we must cooperate with the Konoha ninja."
After a moment of silence, a Tang Ninja said, "Then inform the Konoha Ninja of the Cloud Ninja's whereabouts, and we must also prepare ourselves."
"Alas, I hope the battle won't happen here."
Chapter 67: First Battle with Cloud Ninja
Hot Spring Town, the base of Konoha Ninja.
Uchiha Yuan sat cross-legged on the roof, quietly gazing at the entire hot spring town.
Below him, eight Konoha ninjas were drinking and chatting with the service of hostesses.
Suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps came from outside the courtyard. A Konoha ninja opened the door and said urgently, "Report, there is urgent military intelligence. A large number of Cloud Ninjas have been found."
The sounds of drinking and laughing suddenly stopped. At the same time, a figure flashed, and Uchiha Yuan appeared in the room using the instant body technique.
He raised his hand and waved, and the girls accompanying him with drinks quickly retreated and left.
Then the Konoha ninja who reported the news said: "The Tang Ninja just sent a message that traces of the Kumo Ninja troops were found twenty miles northeast of the hot spring town."
Then the Konoha ninja said, "Master Yuan, the Tang Ninja who reported the news hopes that our battle with the Kumo Ninja can be far away from the hot spring town."
Uchiha Yuan said: "Go tell the Tang Ninjas to rest assured that the battle will not happen in the hot spring town."
Then he turned to the eight Konoha ninjas and said, "Everyone, prepare to fight."
"Yes."
swish
The expressions of these eight Konoha ninjas immediately became extremely serious, and then they simultaneously used the instant body technique to disappear.
As soon as they walked out of the camp, Yamanaka Kino came up to them and said to Uchiha Yuan, "Captain, the ambush troops are ready."
Uchiha Motoaki stationed in the hot spring town with a hundred Konoha ninjas, but there were about two hundred Konoha ninjas hiding around the hot spring town in secret.
In the darkness of the night, figures quickly passed through the wilderness, and the lights of the hot spring town in front of them were faintly visible.
Just when these figures were about a mile away from the hot spring town, a sound of breaking air was heard, and a dense wave of kunai and shurikens flew towards them.
Moreover, some of the kunai were equipped with detonating talismans, and when they flew into the crowd, there were continuous explosions.
"Everyone, be careful!"
"There's an ambush!"
Amidst angry shouts, several figures leaped out, quickly formed hand seals with their hands and performed ninjutsu, immediately summoning several earth walls to block the kunai and shurikens attacking from all directions.
Looking at the figures standing on the earthen wall, Uchiha Yuan walked out from the night and said with a smile: "Miscellaneous cultivators of Kumogakure, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
As he finished speaking, the figures of Konoha ninjas appeared rapidly and continuously around him, surrounding the Cloud ninjas.
Faced with the encirclement of Konoha ninjas, the Cloud ninjas did not panic. A Cloud ninja standing on the earth wall drew the long sword on his back and pointed it at Uchiha Yuan, letting out a roar.
"kill!"
Then, the Cloud Ninjas launched a fierce charge.
"Everyone follow me."
The smile on Uchiha Yuan's face disappeared, his eyes became sharp and cold, and murderous intent burst out.
He kicked his feet and leaped out like an arrow. In the blink of an eye, he rushed in front of the Cloud Ninja who was charging in the front.
The Cloud Ninja charging at the front was a burly and strong man, about two meters tall, with bronze skin that looked like it was carved from rock, full of power.
Faced with Uchiha Yuan who suddenly appeared in front of him, the Cloud Ninja reacted very quickly and swung his sword to make a fierce slash.
when!
There was a fierce sound of metal clashing and sparks flew.
Facing the Cloud Ninja's slashing attack, a kunai quickly slipped into Uchiha Yuan's hand, and he blocked the slashing sword.
Immediately afterwards, Uchiha Yuan used the recoil force to leap up, then turned his body and kicked the Cloud Ninja's head with a whip kick.
boom!
The Cloud Ninja flew backwards and knocked over several Cloud Ninjas behind him, but the next second, he flipped over and jumped up, roaring and rushing towards Uchiha Yuan again.
A hint of surprise appeared on Uchiha Yuan's face. Although this Cloud Ninja used his left arm as a shield to protect his head at the last moment, he still directly bore the force of his whip kick.
He didn't expect that the other party seemed to be unaffected at all.
Is this the Cloud Ninja? He is indeed thick-skinned and tough.
Looking at the Cloud Ninja rushing towards him again, Uchiha Yuan thought secretly.
The next moment, his figure disappeared in a flash. Almost at the same time, a shining light flew past Uchiha Yuan's original position.
What a powerful lightning ninjutsu.
Uchiha Yuan appeared in mid-air, and was secretly shocked when he saw the disappearing lightning below.
Then he looked at a Cloud Ninja below, who was also looking at him, his hands still in the posture of releasing ninjutsu.
Uchiha Yuan raised his hand and threw a shuriken, flying towards the Cloud Ninja below.
Swish!
At the same time, two strong gusts of wind suddenly appeared in front and behind Uchiha Yuan. In the flash of lightning, two fists attacked him at the same time.
Thunder level!
This move of the Cloud Ninja's ninjutsu completely blocked Uchiha Yuan, and he could only take the powerful attacks of the two Cloud Ninja Jonins.
boom!
A huge explosion sounded in the air, and air waves rolled and scattered.
Uchiha Yuan raised his arms to block the heavy punches of the two Cloud Ninjas, and he took their violent attacks.
Then, the three of them scattered at the same time under the huge recoil force.
Uchiha Yuan flew to the ground, and his feet plowed two scratches several meters long on the ground.
However, before he could steady himself, the Cloud Ninja who had been charging in the front had already rushed over, stabbing him in the heart with a sword in both hands.
At the critical moment, Uchiha Yuan's sliding came to an abrupt stop, and an obscure wave spread out from his body, and suddenly the ground under his feet was shattered in an instant.
At the same time, his left hand shot out as fast as lightning, and he clamped the sword between his index and middle fingers.
The long sword that was about to be thrust out suddenly stopped, and the Cloud Ninja holding the sword was shocked to see that the sword tip was pinched by two fingers.
He immediately tensed his arms and exerted more strength, but the sword tip remained motionless, and it was difficult to shake the two fingers.
What, this is impossible!
The Cloud Ninja roared and continued to increase his strength, but after a few seconds, the long sword made of fine steel suddenly broke into several pieces.
Before the Cloud Ninja could react, Uchiha Yuan pinched the broken sword tip with his two fingers and threw it back.
There was a flash of cold light, and the broken sword tip pierced into the throat of the Cloud Ninja in front of him.
He widened his eyes in disbelief, and with a look of unwillingness on his face, his burly and strong body fell to the ground with a bang.
Uchiha Yuan's eyes swept over the body of the Cloud Ninja, then looked around.
At this moment, the Konoha ninjas have already started a fierce battle with the Cloud ninjas.
Under the cover of night, the sounds of fighting shook the sky, and the bombardment of ninjutsu continued to sound.
"Ithaca."
With a loud shout, a Cloud Ninja came running from a distance, bringing a strong wind and attacking Uchiha Yuan in the face.
Heavy flow!
Facing this powerful blow filled with anger and murderous intent, Uchiha Yuan crossed his arms in front of his chest, caught the blow, and flew backwards.
His figure was as light as a piece of floating silk flying through the air, and then he flipped in the air and landed lightly on the ground.
But at this moment, a kunai with an explosive tag on it suddenly flew towards him from the side.
