Chapter 10 Sometimes choosing death is good.
"I have 55 ninjutsu points now, it's time to add them to my strength."
"I wonder how many floors it can be upgraded to."
Uchiha Ye suddenly felt a sense of anticipation, but it was clear that where she was now was not the right place to do this.
"Go home."
She got up and left the riverbank, walking towards home, completely unaware of the several figures not far away.
Uchiha Itachi stared at Ye's departing figure and asked Uchiha Shisui beside him, "Shisui-nii, Ye seems very sad, but I've trained with her for so long and never felt that way. Why is that?"
Uchiha Shisui, watching the figure that had already disappeared from his sight, replied, "Perhaps she doesn't want anyone to know!"
"Itachi, have you looked into her past? Perhaps you can find the answer there."
Opposite them, a silver-haired boy wearing an ANBU mask watched the departing figure, lost in memories.
When they arrived at the door, Uchiha Ye was about to push the door open and go inside, but then he stopped.
“Something’s not right. She seemed to have sensed a fleeting murderous aura just now. Although it was very faint, she still managed to catch it.”
Who could it be?
"She doesn't seem to have made any enemies!"
"Who cares who he is, let's get out of here!"
Uchiha Hajime had just turned around and taken two steps when a slight tremor came from the ground.
"Earth escape technique?"
Without having time to think, Uchiha Ye jumped directly onto the wall of the house.
At the same time, a young man wearing a headband from the Hidden Cloud Village emerged from where Uchiha Ye Gang was standing.
"How could another ninja village have infiltrated Konoha?"
Has Konoha really come to this?
Uchiha Ye recalled the plot and realized there seemed to be such a scene, but why was she chosen? Was the game forcing her to participate?
Although I've only played one holographic game, Uchiha Yoru, I know the nature of games well, so I can't rule out this possibility.
But let's deal with the person in front of us first!
Before she could even make a move, the man's shuriken flew towards her, and he shouted, "Uchiha brat, just surrender obediently!"
"Brother, you think you can make me surrender with just one shuriken? You must have been kicked in the head by a donkey."
The young man seemed to have already foreseen the brat's fate, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.
The previous sneak attack failed by chance; this time, I definitely won't be able to dodge his shuriken.
As a Chunin, if I can't even catch a kid who's not even a Genin, wouldn't I be a laughingstock?
If we can capture an Uchiha brat this time and bring him back to report, we'll definitely get a lot of rewards, and then we can choose to learn some advanced ninjutsu.
Luckily, this brat lives on the very edge of the Uchiha clan's territory, otherwise things would have been really difficult.
"when!"
Uchiha Yo also pulled out a shuriken and clashed it with the flying shuriken.
However, this shuriken also concealed a kunai, which was pointed directly at Uchiha Yoh's shoulder.
Upon seeing this, the young man's smile widened, but it vanished abruptly the next second. The boy was nowhere to be seen on the other side of the wall; only a log had rolled down.
"Substitution Technique?"
Suddenly, a gust of air rushed toward his face.
The young man had no time to react and was kicked away.
"boom!"
He was like a cannonball, crashing into the wall behind him, creating a large hole in it.
"What kind of physical technique is this? How can she have such explosive power? She looks to be only about six years old!"
"Could it be that he just happened to run into a genius from the Uchiha clan?"
The thought of this made him excited again.
The young man, enduring the pain, stood up and began forming hand seals, chanting, "Earth Release: Earth..."
Just as he formed a hand seal, a slender, white fist appeared before him and slammed towards his head.
The young man was blasted away again, crashing through another wall. "How could this be? He... he actually... was defeated by a brat who wasn't even a genin..."
After he finished speaking, he slowly lost consciousness.
Just as Uchiha Ye was about to deliver the finishing blow, he heard the sound of a shuriken flying through the air and quickly stopped, leaning back to dodge the oncoming shuriken.
"Funada!!!"
A man carrying a long sword glared fiercely at Uchiha Ye, "Uchiha brat, I'll make sure you die a horrible death."
He never imagined that by simply letting his companions arrive first, and arriving only a little later, he would be saying goodbye to them forever.
"Ha, have you ever heard the saying, 'The villain dies from talking too much'?"
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!" Before the man could make a move, Uchiha Ye decided to strike first.
A huge fireball rapidly formed and hurtled towards the man's location.
"A trivial skill!"
The man drew the long sword from his back, imbued it with chakra, and with a flash, dodged the Great Fireball Technique and headed straight for Uchiha Yo.
"Such speed! This is much faster than that ninja from before."
"Damn it, this is going to be hard to dodge, she doesn't know the 'Body Instantaneous Movement Technique' yet!"
Uchiha Yoru is not one to wait to die, and besides, she cannot afford to die. But faced with this situation, she has no choice but to grit her teeth and go for it; running away would only lead to her death sooner.
She focused her mind, using her left palm to cushion the oncoming sword while her right hand rapidly formed hand seals to activate the 'Substitution Technique' and switch places with a tree branch in the courtyard.
"The speed was still a little too slow, and I was actually slashed by the sword."
"It hurts a lot, but it's better than dying."
Uchiha Ye glanced at the wounds on his body, still feeling lingering fear.
She quickly shifted her attention to the Cloud Village ninja preparing to launch their next attack.
"Flowing Wind Slash!"
"Damn, this speed is several times faster than before!"
"She's not really going to give up on this game, is she?!"
Despite the pain, Uchiha Ye prepared for a desperate fight.
"Hidden Shadow Serpent Hand!"
"Hmm? The name of that ninjutsu sounds familiar!"
"Isn't this Orochimaru's signature ninjutsu?"
Uchiha Yoh instinctively looked in the direction of the sound.
Those snake-like eyes, that unchanging hairstyle and clothing—it really is Orochimaru.
"That's strange. She's been fighting in the Uchiha clan's territory for so long, yet the first to arrive wasn't an Uchiha, but Orochimaru. That's really odd!"
During this period, Orochimaru seemed particularly enthusiastic about human experimentation.
"Holy crap, could it be what she's thinking?!"
"My goodness, she doesn't want to be a test subject. If Orochimaru takes her away, she might as well die sooner rather than later."
"Whatever!"
Uchiha Ye collapsed to the ground, looking like he didn't care what anyone did to him.
"She knows how to choose between dying directly and living a life worse than death."
Uchiha Ye's actions clearly surprised Orochimaru.
"This Uchiha brat was full of survival instincts just now, how come he suddenly has no will to live after he appeared?"
