"untie."

Qingsi said calmly.

Click.

The semi-transparent, glass-like sealing barrier that enveloped Uchiha Hikaru shattered with a deafening roar.

For a moment, specks of white light drifted through the air, like many white fireflies dancing in the air.

Uchiha Hikaru's thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes suddenly opened, revealing a pair of dark pupils.

The moment she saw Kiyoshi, her pupils turned crimson, with three magatama swirling around them.

Next, the magatama was linked together to form a kaleidoscope pattern.

"Amaterasu!"

Uchiha Hikaru said in a low voice.

Her consciousness remained frozen at the moment she was sealed away, when the Sarutobi and Senju clans joined forces to seal her away.

A jet-black flame appeared from the focal point of Uchiha Hikaru's vision and headed towards Kiyoshi.

Kiyoshi, who was already on guard, completed the hand seals almost instantly.

A flowing white barrier appeared in the air, quickly solidifying into the shape of a shield.

It looks like a miniature door.

Dust Release: Rashomon!

boom!

The black flames immediately became entangled with the white portal and vanished into thin air.

Under the cover of this annihilating light and shadow, a sharp, cold light pierced through the air and arrived!

laugh!

Hikaru Uchiha thrust his kunai straight at Kiyoshi's throat with a swift and ruthless motion, devoid of any superfluous emotion—a skill honed as a weapon of war.

Kiyoshi leaned back slightly, the cold tip of the kunai brushing against his chin.

Missing his first strike, Uchiha Hikaru flipped his wrist and slashed his neck with a kunai.

Kiyoshi dodged again, narrowly avoiding the attack.

laugh!laugh!laugh!

Kiyoshi dodged several consecutive thrusts.

His normal vision allows him to see all of Uchiha Hikaru's attack trajectories clearly, moving with ease within a small space.

"Your physical skills are also good, but... that's enough for now."

Qing Si said calmly.

Hikari Uchiha's powerful eye techniques do not necessarily mean that her taijutsu (physical skills) are also powerful.

Without the Mangekyou Sharingan, Uchiha Hikaru wouldn't actually be considered particularly outstanding.

Just like her physical skills, she was no match for Kiyoshi, whose body had undergone countless transformations.

Kiyoshi's experience gained from the Third Shinobi World War was far superior to that of Uchiha Hikaru.

Uchiha Hikaru relied too much on his eye techniques, neglecting his training in other areas.

Just as Uchiha Hikari's old power was exhausted and new power had not yet been generated in her next thrust, Kiyoshi's right hand shot out like lightning and quickly grabbed her wrist holding the blade.

A tremendous force, far beyond her imagination, struck her, causing her fingers to go numb, and her limp body crashed to the ground.

"What a strength!"

Uchiha Hikaru was shocked.

How come she doesn't remember any enemy with such exaggerated strength?

Who exactly is this guy?

Are they ninjas from the Sarutobi or Senju clans?

"moon……"

As Uchiha Hikari's kaleidoscope pattern spun, Kiyoshi activated the cursed seal just as she was about to unleash "Tsukuyomi".

hum!

Beneath Uchiha Hikaru's clothes, the black curse mark that had already been planted on his lower abdomen suddenly became hot.

Countless jet-black sealing patterns, like living snakes, instantly crawled all over her meridians and acupoints, forming crisscrossing black stripes on her skin.

"Ugh!"

The flow of chakra was forcibly cut off, and the rotation of the kaleidoscope came to an abrupt halt.

The power of his pupils, which was about to be unleashed, was abruptly suppressed, as if a floodgate had been closed.

The intense backlash made her groan, her body stiffening completely, unable to move.

"How is this going?"

I felt the stiffness in my body and the constricted chakra.

Uchiha Hikaru watched this scene with utter disbelief.

When did she fall under the enemy's curse?

"Calm down and look at who I am."

"who are you?"

Uchiha Hikaru asked.

She frowned as she looked at Kiyoshi.

He had never seen an Uchiha with such an appearance before.

Could it be that I've fallen into the Senju clan's illusion?

Uchiha Hikaru's expression changed slightly.

The Senju clan also has genjutsu masters. Thanks to their clan's vast chakra reserves, those who are proficient in genjutsu are extremely powerful.

"..."

"It seems that the long-term sealing has made your thinking a bit rigid. Take a look at this family crest."

Kiyoshi pointed to the flame fan pattern on his clothes.

"Uchiha..."

Uchiha Hikaru murmured.

She remained vigilant.

Upon seeing this, Kiyoshi's dark eyes changed, and he activated his Sharingan.

"This power of the eyes..."

While Uchiha Hikaru was shocked, he also confirmed Kiyoshi's identity.

The Sharingan cannot be faked.

If there really is an illusion, it should be dispelled.

Her pupils could break through the enemy's illusions, making it impossible for her to remain trapped in illusions for long.

"My name is Uchiha Kiyoshi."

"Have not heard."

Uchiha Hikaru's expression was indifferent.

Having been used as a weapon of war for so long, she herself had become accustomed to this method.

They don't expect to have human emotions, and their own emotions are suppressed.

"Hmm... You can think of me as the Uchiha from a hundred or several hundred years in the future."

Kiyoshi said.

That's right, theoretically speaking, Uchiha Hikaru is old enough to be his great-grandmother.

"The Uchiha clan of the future?"

Uchiha Hikaru's indifferent expression wavered slightly, and a hint of doubt appeared on her pretty face.

What does it mean?

“You have been sealed for many years, and I have just lifted the seal on you.”

Qingsi said.

The current Uchiha Hikaru is actually half illiterate.

All the education she received was from the Warring States period.

Don't be fooled by the fact that ninjas in the ninja world start their lives fighting and carrying out missions right after graduation.

Apart from ninjas who graduated early, most ninjas entered school at the age of six and graduated at the age of twelve, undergoing six years of basic education.

"I've already been sealed away?"

Uchiha Hikaru's expression changed slightly.

This explains why the Sarutobi and Senju clan ninjas disappeared and were replaced by this unfamiliar clansman.

"What about the Sarutobi and Senju clans? My order is to destroy them."

Uchiha Hikaru's voice was cold and clear.

She didn't consider what changes might occur a hundred years from now.

All he could think about was continuing to complete the mission.

"It's no longer necessary."

Qingsi shook his head.

"What is your position in the Uchiha clan? Where is the clan leader?"

Uchiha Hikaru asked.

She needed to confirm Qing Si's level of authority.

"You can regard me as the highest authority in the Uchiha clan, and even the clan head must obey my orders."

Kiyoshi said.

The managers of a family are its members.

Many families merged together to form villages, and these clan leaders were required to obey the orders of the village chief who managed the village.

Kiyoshi's current title of Fourth Hokage is, to put it bluntly, the fourth village chief of Konoha Village.

The Hokage's status is naturally higher than that of the head of one of the clans.

"Are you the lord?"

Uchiha Hikaru continued to press for answers.

In her mind, the only one who could be higher than the clan leader was the lord.

Because ninjas are hired by lords.

The Uchiha clan was once hired by the lord of the Land of Lightning to expel the Blood Pond clan and eventually put them under surveillance.

"Go out and talk."

Kiyoshi said.

This place is deep in the valley, where he forcibly cleaved a crack in the ground.

Only some gloomy light shone in from the outside, and the area was shrouded in mist, as if it were about to rain.

"Ah."

Uchiha Hikaru nodded expressionlessly.
