Naruto: We Uchiha only want to make money.

Chapter 18: Slaying Kurozumi, is the dust settled? Obito appears, a strange Daimyo of the Land of Fi

"My lord, what brings you here?"

Upon seeing the arrival of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, a hint of panic flashed in Kurozumi's eyes.

Immediately, he turned sharply to look at Shenyue, his eyes wide with anger, appearing extremely furious.

"You were behind all of this?"

"Black Charcoal, you've been exposed. Surrender now!" Shen Yue put one hand on her hip, the blade in her hand pointing diagonally at the ground, looking completely nonchalant.

"You bastard, you framed me!" Kurotan's black hair fluttered as he looked at Shingetsu.

"Kamizuki, capture him!" The daimyo of the Land of Fire finally gave the order.

"Lord Daimyo, even you don't believe me?"

"Kill!" Upon hearing the name's words, General Kurotan's face turned deathly pale, then crimson.

A sudden, violent shout arose.

He stomped his feet on the ground, and the ground instantly caved in, as if a giant white python had shot up.

Swish!

The samurai sword was drawn, transforming into blue lightning that ripped through the night sky.

That blade was imbued with blue chakra, and its sharpness was in no way inferior to a ninja sword strike imbued with lightning release.

Moreover, its speed is astonishing.

"Be careful! This is the Iaijutsu passed down from Mifune, the great general of the Land of Iron. It's a special technique that counters ninjutsu!" Jiraiya immediately warned upon seeing this.

"Too late, die by my blade!" At this moment, Kurotan seemed to become one with his sword, gathering all his strength into a single strike, determined to kill Shingetsu.

"Trying to kill me with one strike? You underestimate the power of the Uchiha clan!"

Shen Yue's eyes were icy as she activated her Sharingan, the three-tomoe Sharingan, clearly capturing the trajectory of Kurozumi's sword strike.

He slashed out diagonally with his ninja sword.

The blades of both sides slashed like a crescent moon.

Just as they were about to clash together.

Shen Yue's blade tilted, precisely grazing the opponent's blade, producing a series of ear-piercing metallic scraping sounds and sparks flying everywhere.

Using the momentum from the shift in his body, he slid to the left, his entire body moving like a fish to the left side of General Black Charcoal.

"Iaijutsu? It's just a fancy name." Shingetsu's voice was calm, with a youthful crispness: "If the first strike fails, the opening will be too large."

"Not good!" General Kurotan's attack missed its mark, and alarm bells rang in his mind.

He was no ordinary samurai; he was a veteran of countless battles and reacted with lightning speed. Almost the instant his blade missed its target, he swept it horizontally, whistling through the air, and slashed back at Shingetsu's waist and abdomen.

This swift and ruthless change of tactics clearly indicated an intention to deliver a fatal blow.

However, in Shen Yue's eyes, the speed of this strike was slowed down.

He didn't even move much, just leaned back slightly, his waist showing amazing flexibility and coordination, and the blade wrapped in sharp chakra almost grazed his ninja vest.

The gust of wind generated by the blade made Shen Yue's clothes flutter, but it did not cause any harm.

"Masaka!?!" General Kurotan was even more shocked to see that his killing blow had missed again.

He was always confident in his swordsmanship, and these two consecutive strikes were the culmination of years of hard work and skill.

Even a Jonin-level taijutsu master would find it extremely difficult to dodge so easily.

Even with his Sharingan, Shen Yue could clearly see the trajectory of his sword strike.

But it can actually keep up with the movements!

It can only be said that Shen Yue's taijutsu is also extremely powerful, and his reaction speed far exceeds that of ordinary ninjas.

"Damn it, I underestimated him!" Black Charcoal's heart sank into the sea.

Sure enough, just as his old strength had dissipated and his new strength had not yet arisen, the Divine Moon moved.

"Now, it's my turn to fight back!"

"Uchiha-style swordsmanship!"

Shen Yue released her long sword, which transformed into a crescent moon and slashed towards Hei Tan.

Click!

Blood spurted from General Black Charcoal's body, and a deep, bone-revealing wound appeared on his back.

However, that's not all.

Shen Yue's figure flickered, creating a hurricane. Her figure was as fast as black lightning, and she instantly appeared next to General Hei Tan. Her hand spun the hilt of her sword in mid-air, like a shower of wild flowers.

Click!

Click!

The crescent-shaped blade light, like a halo, kept slashing down around Heitan.

Deep, bone-revealing knife marks appeared, and he was instantly hacked into a bloody mess.

Everyone was stunned.

puff!

Finally, Black Charcoal coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground.

The hall was deathly silent.

From the moment General Kurozumi suddenly drew his sword, to when Shingetsu met him in battle, and finally when the sword left his hand, Kurozumi was hacked into a bloody mess.

In the blink of an eye.

It happened so fast that no one had time to react.

Di Lu had even taken half a step forward, his hands forming a hand seal, ready to intervene, but he stopped abruptly, his whole body frozen like a statue.

"Captain is amazing! Our Uchiha swordsmanship is this good?" Qing Shui and Tie Shu stared wide-eyed. They knew their captain was skilled in swordsmanship, but they never imagined it was this good.

"That's amazing! He's incredibly powerful!" The daimyo of the Land of Fire, who was being protected by numerous guards at a distance, also had his pupils shrink suddenly, followed by a strange look of joy.

"Shingetsu, the real culprit has been caught, and some of the valuables have been recovered. What are your plans now?"

Upon hearing the question from the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, Shingetsu calmly replied.

"Reporting to Your Excellency, I plan to interrogate Nobunaga Utagi in prison tomorrow. I'm sure I'll be able to find out who the real culprit is!" Shingetsu said calmly.

"Good, as expected of the elite of the prestigious Uchiha clan of Konoha. In that case, I can rest assured. It's a pity that Kurozumi has followed me for so long, yet the thief who stole the vault was actually him!"

The daimyo of the Land of Fire looked at Kuroko with a pained expression.

"Someone, bury him!"

"Yes!" Immediately, someone dragged the charred corpse out and buried it.

"It's getting late, you should all go back to sleep!" the Fire Country Daimyo instructed Shingetsu and the others.

"Qingshui, Tieshu, let's go!" Shenyue called to the two of them as they left.

After everyone left, only a few guards and servants remained to clean up the traces of the battle and move the money back to the storeroom.

……

In the room of the famous man.

Bright lights.

The daimyo of the Land of Fire sat cross-legged.

The space before them distorted, and a black hole appeared out of thin air. Then, a short-haired man dressed in black with red clouds and wearing a yellow tiger-skin vortex mask appeared.

"Greetings, Lord Madara!" The daimyo of the Land of Fire immediately bowed respectfully upon seeing the newcomer.

The person referred to as Madara was actually Obito Uchiha.

After Madara taught him Yin-Yang Release and other ninjutsu, he died on his own, and Obito inherited his name and walked the world.

"How's the plan going?"

"No problem. That Shingetsu has enormous potential. He's incredibly skilled with the Sharingan and his taijutsu is also very strong!"

Even someone as strong as Black Charcoal was killed instantly by him!

"Now we have much more freedom of movement!"

Upon hearing the name of the Land of Fire, a scarlet Sharingan slowly rotated beneath the tan tiger-skin mask.

"He's only ten years old, yet he's already so powerful. Perhaps he's a better candidate than Itachi and Shisui. It seems I should make contact with him. If I can get him to work for me, then the rest of the plan will go very smoothly!" As Obito spoke, he waved his hand and once again used Kamui to leave.
