Chapter 97 - Chapter 98: Exceptionally Useful Magnet Release

Uchiha Kagami led the three most outstanding UchihaJonin, charging out in the lead.

As they approached the entrance of Hell Valley, the battle in the distance was clearly observed in detail by their Three-Tomoe Sharingan.

On the east side of the valley entrance, part of the Cloud Ninja encampment had already been completely blown apart.

The scattered remains on the ground contained only a few sporadic corpses of the Chinoike Clan wearing worn-out clothes.

"It is the Chinoike Clan; they are attacking the nobles, samurai, and Cloud Ninjas from the Land of Lightning."

Seeing many Cloud Ninjas being attacked did not surprise Uchiha Kagami.

He only felt that the current casualty ratio was somewhat lopsided.

Uchiha Kagami signaled for everyone to slow down and hide, keeping the team silent, while he took the three elite Jonin and accelerated toward Hell Valley.

At this moment, the Cloud Ninja defensive line and the noble samurai were already in chaos.

The Cloud Ninjas had met their first round of attacks while asleep. The special genjutsu of the Ketsuryugan allowed the user to forcibly control enemy Ninjas after a sneak attack by using blood as a medium, then manipulate the enemy's blood to carry out suicide attacks.

This method of sneak attack had cost the Cloud Ninjas dearly.

Clearly, they were their own familiar teammates, but they exploded instantly after entering the barracks.

Caught completely off guard, the Cloud Ninjas lost two-thirds of their personnel in a short period.

The special blood control ocular jutsu of the Ketsuryugan is more lethal the more blood is released, making it particularly advantageous on a chaotic battlefield.

After the initial sneak attack, some corpses of Cloud Ninjas and noble samurai were also manipulated by the Ketsuryugan ocular jutsu.

The explosive power of fresh corpses was no less than that of living people.

It was only because the Chinoike Clan suffered from long-term malnutrition that, although they increased their attack power after cutting their wrists to release blood, they themselves became weak after losing too much blood.

This caused the remaining Cloud Ninjas to gradually reach a stalemate with them; otherwise, they would have met their end before the Uchiha Ninjas even arrived.

Seeing the fierce battle in Hell Valley, the Uchiha Ninjas did not immediately enter the battlefield; instead, Uchiha Kagami at the forefront observed carefully.

One, two, three—

The three Ninjas with the strongest bloodline attacks from the Ketsuryugan could quickly kill Cloud Ninjas by relying on the suppression of their ocular jutsu.

They were clearly at the level of elite Jonin.

However, the ordinary members of the Chinoike Clan seemed somewhat lacking in ability.

"According to the plan, divide into Group A and Group B. Group A will attack the oldest bearded Chinoike Ninja; I will take responsibility for the second scarred Ninja, and Uchiha Shinji will be responsible for the muscular, shirtless Ninja holding a blade."

"Except for the three main targets, try to capture the other Chinoike Clan members alive; Group B is responsible for that."

Uchiha Kagami's tone carried an inexplicable murderous aura, "As for the remaining Cloud Ninjas, kill them all!"

At this moment, Uchiha Fucheng was walking leisurely through Hell Valley, leading a captured Jonin wearing a Cloud Ninja headband.

"Mikoto, activate large-scale reconnaissance; the women, children, and elderly of the Chinoike Clan should be hiding in some cave."

Following Uchiha Fucheng's request, Mikoto released electromagnetic wave reconnaissance, causing the free-floating sulfur mist in the air to ionize slightly.

Hum!

Mikoto closed her eyes, quietly feeling the information feedback, "Behind the pile of rubble on the right, there is an entrance leading underground. I detected slow-moving biological units more than thirty meters underground."

"It is just that the volcanic terrain here has weakened the reconnaissance effect quite a bit, so I cannot be certain if it is the Chinoike Clan."

Fucheng smiled, "No need to be so precise; there is nothing but volcanic ash and sulfur smoke here, and not many places to house living people. It is only thirty meters, so we can just go straight down."

Uchiha Fucheng used a Shadow Clone, splitting off a copy of himself to have the Shadow Clone watch the Cloud Ninja leader, who was the manager of Hell Valley.

He himself directly used the Magnet Release he had just obtained from Toroi.

[Magnet Release: Iron Sand Aggregation]

Near the cave entrance blocked by rubble, a large amount of black-red iron sand flowed out continuously from the cracks in the rocks and the openings in the ground.

As the iron sand gathered, it transformed into a thick, round drill shaped like a tunnel boring machine.

The black drill had a diameter of nearly two meters.

With a roaring sound, it headed straight for the cave entrance blocked by rubble.

Hum, rumble, rumble.

The drill made of black iron sand kicked up clouds of dust, and in less than ten seconds, a round hole that two people could enter side-by-side appeared in front of Fucheng.

"This Magnet Release is really convenient to use." Mikoto's eyes lit up.

Although she needed electromagnetic conversion when using magnetic force, she could also skillfully use electric currents to achieve control over this form of magnetic force.

Uchiha Fucheng also quite liked this newly acquired Magnet Release ability.

With a casual Wind Release, he blew away the dust inside the cave, "Let's go, let's find the families of the Chinoike Clan first."

While Fucheng and Mikoto were breaking through the cave entrance, these Chinoike Clan members hiding in the cave had already felt the roaring vibration of the rock walls.

But because there were only the elderly, women, and children here, all of whom were ordinary clansmen without combat power, they could only watch helplessly and had no power to resist.

The cave gates they had set up were destroyed one by one by the torrent of black iron sand.

An elderly woman with a face full of wrinkles looked helplessly at the children huddled in the cave and could only make her final decision.

"Oyashiro Aya, you go! Surrender to the other side; as long as they can spare the children, we can agree to anything."

Hearing her words, the Chinoike Clan members in the cave all began to cry in low voices.

It was as if the Ninjas about to attack were going to slaughter and bleed them.

Boom!

Bang!

The last rock blocking the cave was broken open by Uchiha Fucheng, and a faint glimmer of light appeared in the now much more spacious cave.

A girl with a fairly pretty face was kneeling pitifully at the very front.

The remaining Chinoike clansmen had tattered clothes, and some were even barely covered.

"Cloud Ninja lords, we surrender, please do not kill us." The girl kowtowed tremblingly, while Fucheng wrinkled his nose slightly.

Although the girl was quite pretty, she was dirty and smelly. This girl, who had been crawling and kneeling, was moving straight toward Fucheng; could it be that the Chinoike Clan still wanted to use a honey trap?

Seeing Uchiha Fucheng wrinkle his nose, Mikoto shook her head in amusement.

She ordered these people on Fucheng's behalf, "We are not Cloud Ninjas. Everyone, follow me out of the underground; any resistance will be killed without mercy."

"Not Cloud Ninjas?"

"Then are you noble lords from the Land of Lightning?"

Subsequently, Mikoto's Shadow Clone forcibly drove these Chinoike Clan members out, because Mikoto was wearing a Konoha headband, which allowed these Chinoike Clan members to recognize them immediately.

"Konoha? You are Uchiha Ninjas?" As soon as this sentence was spoken, the group became panicked immediately.

"Lords, please do not kill us, do not kill us!"

This sense of fear was so strong that one could imagine what a deep impression the Uchiha had left on them before.

Watching these people huddle together in fear, unwilling to return to the surface, Fucheng simply used his Mangekyo ocular power combined with group genjutsu to perform large-scale control.

These people did not know Ninjutsu, nor had they awakened the Bloodline Limit, so genjutsu control was very easy.

They stood up with dazed eyes, as if immersed in their own world.

First, they lined up in a queue, then holding children, supporting the elderly, and following each other, they returned to the surface in an orderly manner.

Uchiha Fucheng looked around and nodded with satisfaction.

"This mission is half completed here. As for the rest, it depends on how many Uchiha Kagami kills on his side."
