Start with the Mangekyo Sharingan: Follow Lord Madara out of Konoha

Whirlpool Hidden Village, outside the mountain cave where the giant Torii gate stood, the number of ninja had grown to over twenty.

After tireless attempts, this group had discovered that the barrier sealing the cave was exceptionally sturdy, impossible to break through with brute force. To undo the barrier, they needed to find another way.

Among them were ninja skilled in sensing and sealing techniques. After some reconnaissance, they immediately discovered a "Forbidden Tag" affixed to a corner of the Torii gate.

As the saying goes, many hands make light work. Their efficiency was remarkable, and some experts immediately realized that this was not a single, isolated seal. To create such a resilient barrier, it must be a rumored chain seal.

The sealing techniques inscribed on the tags interacted with each other, mutually compensating for weaknesses, forming a perfect closed-loop to achieve a cycle of perpetual existence.

They immediately divided tasks, searching around the Torii gate, gradually expanding the scope from the original cave. About half an hour later, they finally found all five "Forbidden Tags."

As the five "Forbidden Tags" were torn off together, the barrier wall inside the Torii gate immediately rippled, the blue light flashing erratically before finally shattering like bubbles.

Air began to circulate, and the cool night breeze entered the cave, sending a chill through every Uzumaki clansman, radiating a subtle coldness from the inside out.

"Kill."

With a command from the leading ninja, everyone landed with a whoosh of wind, their blades drawn, hacking at the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled who had almost no ability to resist.

Just then, a young voice echoed through the scene.

"Wood Release: Advent of a Sea of Trees!"

The cave shook slightly, and countless branches and vines sprang from the rock walls and the ground, rapidly growing in the air. Verdant greenery lit up the cave, and countless branches crisscrossed, forming a sea of green that surged toward the cave entrance.

"This is... Wood Release!?"

Some experienced ninja immediately recognized the technique and flashed back to retreat, but many hotheads ignored the danger, still pushing forward like arrows, plunging into the sea of trees.

The sea of trees stirred, like ripples spreading across the water. With each ripple, a short and hurried groan echoed from the cave, indicating that someone had been bound by the sea of trees and lost their ability to move.

Soon, the sounds of fighting erupted inside the cave, indicating that someone had broken through the tree sea blockade and made it inside the Uzumaki clan's defensive lines.

The surviving ninja exchanged glances, and tacitly pulled back to create distance.

"Fire Release: Wildfire!"

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"

The combined Fire and Wind Release technique was launched. Tongues of fire burned fiercely under the impetus of the wind, instantly igniting the tree sea, sending black smoke billowing, but other ninja used Wind Release ninjutsu to blow it back into the cave.

Suddenly, a point of golden light illuminated the black smoke. Golden lightning flashed, and a clear ball of lightning erupted from the Torii gate, violently shattering all the trees and sweeping the black smoke out of the cave.

The ninja outside the cave were not rookies, and they all keenly sensed the danger, scattering like birds and beasts, dodging the cannonball-like impact.

Inside the Torii gate, a youth stood before everyone, his short black hair moving without wind, surrounded by an orange, half-bodied giant. As pieces of armor covered the body, the giant quickly transformed into a mountain-like Tengu Susanoo, completely blocking the Torii gate.

It held a hammer in its left hand, and a cannon on its right shoulder, unmoving amidst the streaming golden arcs of electricity. Terrifying energy brewed in the dark muzzle.

"Sacred Treasure: Raijin's Thunder Cannon!"

Uchiha Nian spoke coldly, and a golden light flashed across everyone's vision.

The cannon on the Tengu Susanoo's shoulder shook violently, and a huge ball of thunder roared out, immediately enveloping two figures, their bodies instantly bursting into blood mist.

Fast, it was simply too fast. The speed of lightning allowed no time to react!

The powerful impact even cracked the Torii gate.

The ninja outside the cave were shocked. The moment the Susanoo appeared, a vast pressure surged forth, and they recognized Nian's Uchiha identity!

But no one had told them that they would encounter an Uchiha wielding the Mangekyō Sharingan here!

Not only them, but even the Uzumaki clansmen inside the cave exchanged glances, looking bewildered. Was there actually a Uchiha powerful enough to protect the cave here?

Everyone was full of questions, constantly looking around, trying to find a knowing look on the faces of the other clansmen, but without exception, they failed.

In the crowd, only a black-haired youth stood with a faint smile, composed as ever.

Although he was dressed casually, he seemed relaxed and carefree, and his dark sunglasses added an air of mystery to his already enigmatic aura.

Many people had noticed his distinctiveness long ago, but everyone was immersed in worry and grief, and no one had the leisure to pay attention to him. Some even felt resentful, not understanding how this young man could still smile in the face of such a life-or-death crisis.

Now... they finally understood the reason for his composure and unwavering calm.

The smart ones quickly realized that the two black-haired guys with similar appearances were probably in cahoots.

An elderly man cautiously stepped forward and respectfully said, "May I ask, are you reinforcements sent by Konohagakure?"

Kamihane maintained a polite smile and gently shook his head. "Konoha? Those guys don't have the guts to help you, nor do they have such powerful warriors."

"Ah, not Konoha? Then who else would come to help us..."

"My name is Uchiha Kamihane."

Kamihane said calmly, and under the influence of his composed and calm demeanor, the Uzumaki clansmen gradually quieted down, focusing their gazes on him.

"Now, I'm going to start killing." Kamihane took a step, and the top of the cave instantly broke open a large hole, dirt and gravel sliding down from the roof. When everyone looked up, he was already outside the cave, suspended in the air outside the mountain.

Earlier, under Nian's frenzied bombardment of "Raijin's Thunder Cannon", the ninja outside had run far away, afraid to approach the cave again.

Relying on his long range and strong light sensitivity, Kamihane could see in the night as if it were day, instantly locking onto six fleeing figures.

He raised his sword fingers, the Mangekyō behind his sunglasses spinning eerily, and raised his hand, instantly teleporting a figure outside the cave, where it was sliced in half with a "sputter," the terrified expression forever frozen on their face.

Next, he did the same, moving his sword fingers at will. The other figures appeared in succession, and each was sliced in two in the next second, blood splashing like ink, painting a fleeting crescent slash in the air.

In just six short seconds, the six fleeing figures had died strangely before everyone's eyes, turning into a pile of dismembered limbs, the pungent smell of blood assailing their nostrils.

"Nian, guard the entrance and annihilate all enemies who come to invade."

Nian nodded fiercely, the red light in his eyes blazing intensely.

Kamihane took another step, and with a ripple, his entire body disappeared in an instant, and a gentle breeze dispersed the blood.
