After entering Konoha.
Natsume and Nonoyu also continued to hide their traces quietly and rushed towards the orphanage.
It's not that Natsume doesn't want to be high-profile.
I just don’t want to be too showy.
After all, whether it's Konoha's 'blue beast' or Sarutobi's 'ghoul seal'.
There is still a certain threat to oneself.
This is not cowardice.
Be calm and follow your heart!
Obviously, if he waits for two or three more months, he can save another 10,000 gold coins and obtain immortality.
At that time, even hard access to [Eight Gate Dunjia] will not be a problem.
But now, naturally there is no need to put oneself in danger of death just for the sake of temporary publicity.
You know, there is my own village and [Mist Hidden Village].
There are so many wonderful services, waiting for you to go back and enjoy them!
But we can't let the boat capsize in the gutter!
…
In the night, Natsume and the two kept jumping back and forth in the village.
Soon we arrived near the [Orphanage].
"Be careful and stay hidden!"
"I'll go in and check first. After confirming it's safe, you can follow back."
Natsume stopped Nonoyu who was behind him and warned him.
According to the information display.
In all likelihood, this [Orphanage] has become a secret stronghold of 'Root'.
This is a good way to hide your whereabouts and train your manpower.
Therefore, there might be root ninjas stationed here.
Go in first, even if there is an ambush, it won't be a big problem.
And Nonoyu, who only has the strength of a chuunin, rushes in and it is difficult to guarantee safety.
I can't take risks with this beautiful miko next to me for a bunch of brats who haven't grown up yet, right?
"good!"
Nonoyu nodded, obviously trusting Natsume completely.
However, just when Natsume was about to enter.
Inside the [Orphanage].
A banging sound suddenly sounded.
"Who is he? He's sneaking around there!"
Two masked figures suddenly jumped out of the [Orphanage].
One of them, with his [white eyes] wide open, shouted loudly at the place where Natsume and the two were hiding.
Sure enough, there is indeed a real ninja hiding here!
Moreover, the other party relies on the ability of [White Eyes].
He caught a glimpse of Natsume and the two of them first and quickly showed up to warn them.
…
After a few seconds.
"Tap, step -"
Two crisp footsteps sounded.
A not-too-tall figure walked out of the darkness around the corner and faced the two root ninjas.
"who are you……"
Another ninja, who was not a root ninja of the Hyuga clan, shouted harshly.
But, he hasn't finished speaking yet.
Just saw it.
In the dark night, a enchanting scarlet light lit up.
"W-Sharingan!"
The exclamations stopped abruptly.
Powerful eye energy poured out, instantly eroding the ninja's consciousness.
Illusions from the pupil system are inherently difficult to resist.
Once you look at it, you will basically be tricked.
What's more, it's a pair of 'Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan'!
"It's an illusion! It's not good!"
The Hyuga ninja, who relied on [White Eyes] and had a premonition that something was wrong, looked away half a second in advance.
Barely dodged a disaster.
But he was even more horrified!
The three-magatama Sharingan is rare.
In addition, most of the Uchiha clan defected.
Among the remaining ninjas, how can there be a Sanmagatama ninja who is so proficient in illusions!
He was able to control an ANBU ninja in an instant!
same time.
Ignoring the shock in my heart.
He quickly turned to look at his stunned teammates beside him.
Activate the Byakugan immediately.
Then he suddenly took action and slapped his teammate hard on the back of the head.
The powerful palm force directly knocks the opponent to the ground.
At the same time, relying on the ability of the Byakugan, he also successfully blocked the flow of the enemy's chakra and released the genjutsu control of his teammate.
…
Watching this scene from a distance.
Natsume was also slightly surprised.
I sighed in my heart:
nice!
In just three seconds, the opponent helped his teammates break free from the control of his illusion.
Although, it was also because he only opened the 'Three Magatama Sharingan' and did not use the 'Eternal Kaleidoscope', which was a serious mistake.
However, Natsume is already full of energy.
Even if you only use the 'Three Magatama Sharingan' to cast illusions.
It's not something that an ordinary jounin can break open quickly.
And this root ninja with [White Eyes] seems to be barely a jounin.
But it can break through the Sharingan's illusion in a short period of time.
It is enough to show that this guy is extremely skilled in the use of [White Eyes].
It better reflects the superior illusion resistance of [White Eyes].
…
It is also one of the three major pupil techniques.
If the power of the Sharingan lies in attack (such as Amaterasu) and confusion (such as Tsukiyomi), then the power of the Byakugan lies in perception and prediction.
besides.
I also have to admit that the Byakugan is also very restrained in the Sharingan's genjutsu ability.
Otherwise, Kirigakure's ninja 'Ao'.
It is impossible to use just one Byakugan to unlock Obito's genjutsu control over the fourth generation Mizukage Yagura.
It is even more impossible to directly see through Danzo's 'Beyond the God' illusion cast on Mifune at the Five Kage Conference.
The overall performance is enough to prove it.
The [Byakugan], which can see through the flow of chakra in the enemy's body, is indeed very effective against illusions.
After all, the essence of illusion is to rely on one's own chakra to interfere with and confuse the enemy's brain.
…
"My face hurts!"
"Why am I lying on the ground?"
"I was controlled by illusion just now?"
The root ninja who had woken up after hitting the ground hard said in a daze.
But the white-eyed ninja beside him hurriedly warned as if facing a formidable enemy:
"That's right! It's an illusion!"
"The other party is a ninja from the Uchiha clan, send the signal quickly!"
"Be careful, the other person's illusion ability is outstanding, don't look at him!"
The ninja on the ground was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
Then, I immediately wanted to pull off the alarm flare and issue a warning.
But right now.
"interesting!"
Natsume chuckled.
"Mangekyo Sharingan Setsuna - open!"
"Third level eight times speed gain!"
After possessing the [Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan].
Natsume is fully adapted to the 8x speed increase of the third level [Setsuna], which does not put much burden on the body at all.
Basically ready to use.
A moment.
Natsume, whose speed increased dramatically, had already disappeared.
"This...is this a teleportation technique?!!"
"How could that happen? Where has he gone?"
The white-eyed ninja was horrified.
Even with [White Eyes], it is difficult to clearly capture the disappearing figure of the other party.
When did the Uchiha clan have a ninja with such a powerful 'blinking technique'?
Or, physical skills?
Then, without waiting for him to react.
A scream suddenly came from beside him.
Obviously, the teammate he had just rescued had been infected.
"boom!"
Before he could see what he found next to him.
Then there was only a muffled sound.
Then, I felt a sharp pain in my lower abdomen.
At the same time, the 'short' figure also appeared in front of him.
…
With the blessing of extreme speed, dealing with these root ninjas at close range, Natsume simply felt that it was easier than killing a chicken.
He gathered chakra in his right hand and waved it gently.
He slit the throat of the root ninja on the left and took away a life.
Then, he came to the white-eyed ninja in an instant.
Give the other person a gentle pinch on their lower abdomen.
The huge force directly caused the opponent's muscles to spasm and lose the ability to resist.
Then, he flicked his fingers.
Hit the opponent on the forehead with your middle finger.
The huge force instantly shattered the opponent's mask and launched the white-eyed ninja several meters away before landing heavily on the ground.
At the same time, after the mask was broken, the original appearance of the root ninja was revealed.
…
