201 Chapter 201: Hunt
In the canyon at the edge of Konoha, a clear stream flowed gently in the middle.
Accompanied by the crisp sound of metal clashing, the figures of five individuals swiftly battled within the canyon, with an ANBU Ninja lying on the ground nearby.
"Why, as fellow Konoha Ninjas, do you have to turn against each other?"
Facing the pincer attack of two masked Ninjas with flower-patterned faces, Shisui, wielding a short sword and a dagger, still appeared effortlessly skilled.
"Can you just pretend you didn't see anything and leave? Why do you have to meddle in others' affairs?"
Upon hearing Shisui's inquiry and sensing the incredible strength of this Uchiha youth before them, the two masked Ninjas with Jonin-level abilities were secretly shocked but responded without hesitation.
"If you're going to kill a comrade, I can't just let you walk away without asking for a reason."
With a sharp short sword, Shisui parried the heavy blows of the descending sword in front of him. His pair of blood-red three Tomoe Sharingan eyes gleamed with a sharp edge.
Today, he originally came out to instruct Itachi, who was a Genin, in Ninja exercises. Unexpectedly, on the way, they suddenly encountered three ANBU Ninjas chasing another ANBU Ninja.
Shisui, loyal to his comrades, naturally had no reason to stand idly by. Together with Itachi, they directly intercepted the three ANBU Ninjas with flower-patterned masks in front of them and recognized their affiliation with the underground organization, Root.
"We are chasing a traitor to the village, and we will uphold Konoha's order according to our principles."
Feeling the extraordinary strength of the Body Flicker Shisui before them, two Jonin from the Root organization spoke in a deep voice, "Body Flicker Shisui, although you have a big reputation, this matter is not for you to intervene."
"You have no right to judge!"
As soon as the words of the two Root Jonin fell, the injured ANBU Ninja lying on the ground spoke, "I must deliver this secret letter to Hokage-sama. Hokage-sama will make a fair judgment!"
"A fair judgment? Hmph, too naive..."
Upon hearing the words of the injured ANBU Ninja, the Root organization Ninja, wielding dual blades in a battle against Shisui, sneered, "Those who betray the village have only one path – the path of death!"
"And... the woman currently fighting the little devil is a notorious and ruthless female Ninja within our Root."
At the same time, another Jonin from the Root organization swung a giant cleaver mercilessly towards Shisui. "Are you sure that little devil is not a problem?"
In addition to the two Root Jonin dealing with Shisui, another female Ninja from the Root organization was using Steel threads coated with potent poison and Shuriken to battle the eight or nine-year-old Uchiha Itachi.
"Don't underestimate the Uchiha..."
With swift Taijutsu and a Body Flicker, Shisui easily dodged the incoming large cleaver. Glancing at Itachi, who was evenly matched with the Root female Ninja, Shisui wore a confident smile. "Besides, that kid is outstanding!"
"How is that possible?! Damn Sharingan..."
Indeed, as soon as Shisui finished speaking, a wave of incredulous exclamations came from nearby.
With the Double Tomoe Sharingan awakened at the age of eight, the young Itachi had successfully defeated the battle-hardened female Ninja from the Root organization!
"Since Itachi has already finished the battle..."
As he spoke, seeing Itachi resolving the conflict beside him, Shisui's blood-red Sharingan also emitted a dazzling light. "I have no reason to delay any longer here!"
Swoosh!
As the words fell, Shisui instantly formed hand seals, and his body suddenly transformed into dozens of identical figures on the water surface. Swiftly moving on the water, he quickly surrounded the two Jonin from the Root organization.
"Shadow Clone Jutsu... No, that's not it!"
Watching the Shisui clones manifest before him, the Root organization Ninja wielding dual blades instinctively thought it was Shadow Clone Jutsu. However, before he could finish speaking, one of the Shisui clones ruthlessly kicked him away!
Boom!
Seeing his comrade kicked away by Shisui, another large-sized Root organization Ninja swung his massive cleaver, exerting powerful force that sent all the creek water beneath his feet violently splashing away!
"Not moving? In other words, there's no mass..."
After sending all the water beneath his feet flying with a single slash, the Root organization Ninja saw that all the Shisui clones around him still existed. A look of incredulity appeared beneath his mask.
"But each attack is real, how is such a Body Flicker Jutsu possible?!"
Bang!
After speaking, a tremendous force surged on his back. He had just defended against an attack from the Shisui in front of him when another Shisui from behind fiercely sent him flying!
"Impressive... so powerful..."
Watching Shisui exhibit an unbelievable Body Flicker Jutsu and quickly dispatching two elite Ninjas from the Root organization, the nearby ANBU Ninja, lying on the ground, widened their eyes. "Is this the Uchiha Clan's strongest Genjutsu Ninja, Body Flicker Shisui?"
"Uchiha Shisui, even if you defeat us, it won't matter."
At this moment, witnessing all three of them being defeated by the two Uchiha youths before them, the Root organization female Ninja slowly climbed up from the ground. "My weapons are coated with deadly poison. This traitor won't live to see the Hokage."
"What?!"
At the words, Shisui and Itachi both focused on the wounds of the nearby ANBU Ninja. The young Itachi clenched his fists in frustration. "Damn..."
"If there's such an important secret message to be delivered to Sarutobi-sensei..."
"As his disciple, I naturally have to help him deliver it..."
However, at this moment, a clear voice suddenly echoed in the canyon, leaving everyone stunned.
"Yu?!"
Hearing the familiar voice, Shisui turned abruptly, only to see a white-haired and black-clothed handsome young man instantly appear with a girl in a Konoha Ninja vest exuding a sinister aura. Shisui couldn't help but show a look of surprise.
'Is it him?!'
Itachi, standing beside Shisui, widened his Double Tomoe Sharingan eyes at Yu's sudden appearance. He would never forget the impact and shock this young man brought when he witnessed him during the Great Ninja War.
Delicate Illness Extraction Jutsu!!
Ignoring the varied reactions on the faces of everyone present, Yu crouched down. The palm covered with a green Chakra aura effortlessly penetrated the body of the ANBU Ninja, directly extracting the potent poison that had infiltrated his system!
Mystical Palm Jutsu!!
After removing the toxins from the ANBU Ninja's body, Yu's top-tier Medical Ninjutsu did not cease. The other hand, radiating a green Chakra, swiftly healed his injuries at an astonishing speed.
