To be honest, I didn't see the opponent make a move!
Uchiha Raimon pondered for a long time, his mind filled with confusion, unable to figure out who the opponent was.
What? You didn't see the opponent make a move? With Elder Raimon's strength, how is it possible that you were severely injured to this extent without even seeing the enemy?
Uchiha Tenxiu's eyes widened, and his heart immediately became restless. Since when did the Ninja World have such unknown powerhouses?
One must know that Uchiha Raimon's strength was among the top existences in the entire Uchiha Clan.
As an Elder of the Uchiha Clan, the Elders who rose to power from the Warring States Period could be said to be at the pinnacle of the Uchiha Clan; otherwise, it would have been impossible for them to become family Elders.
After all, under the leadership of Uchiha Madara as clan head, the Uchiha Clan at that time truly operated on the principle of the strong being revered.
According to the strength divisions in the original Hokage plot, even if he wasn't a truly all-around Kage-level powerhouse, he was definitely an existence with several Kage-level stats.
He was a powerhouse who surpassed Elite Jonin; an ordinary Elite Jonin facing him would basically be walking to their death.
Only multiple Ninja working as a team could hope to contend with such a powerhouse.
Before those Super Kage Level powerhouses made their move.
Even if ordinary Kage-level powerhouses came to surround and kill him, Uchiha Raimon would still be able to retreat at any time.
But now.
Elder Uchiha Raimon actually said that this time, he was severely injured without even seeing the opponent's figure.
It was truly unbelievable.
Moreover, if the opponent could severely injure Elder Raimon, why didn't they directly kill him and instead let him escape?
To be honest, I don't know what Ninjutsu caused that attack, but without exception, it was definitely a terrifying Forbidden Technique.
Uchiha Raimon affirmed to Uchiha Tenxiu.
Actually, after I dealt with those Water Release Elite Ninja of Jonin level, I realized this was a well-prepared ambush, so I started to accelerate my return. However, when I approached Feather City, a flash of white light instantly enveloped several kilometers around me. I didn't even have time to react before I was hit by that terrifying attack.
If my body hadn't been hit, giving me time to react, I might not even have known what happened!
But even realizing I was attacked, there was no way to dodge. Although I used a special method to nullify this attack, I lost my ability to fight. If there hadn't been any enemies after that Forbidden Technique attack, then even a Genin appearing could have taken my life!
Uchiha Raimon said, secretly vexed, and felt a surge of lingering fear about his journey this time.
Meanwhile, Uchiha Tenxiu, as he listened to Uchiha Raimon's account, felt an increasing sense of familiarity, as if he had encountered this kind of attack method in the original plot.
White light?
A range of several kilometers?
Why does it feel more and more familiar the more I hear it?
Deidara's explosions?
Super Shinra Tensei?
Or, the Earth Spider's...
Wait, Earth Spider?
That's it! If it's the Earth Spider, then it makes sense! According to what Elder Uchiha Raimon said, there were no subsequent pursuers after that Forbidden Technique, otherwise, he probably wouldn't have made it back. Judging by the Earth Spider Clan's Forbidden Technique, that Forbidden Technique: Raging Lion Hair must have been the Forbidden Technique used in this ambush.
According to the information from the previous life's plot, the Forbidden Technique: Raging Lion Hair is different from conventional Five-Element Ninjutsu. It uses a special jutsu formula hidden within a person's body as a Ninjutsu anchor, continuously absorbing natural energy from heaven and earth, storing it, and then releasing it all at once. Although the prelude to its activation requires a large amount of time for accumulation, unlike regular Ninjutsu's instant activation, it possesses a hundred times greater power.
This family, relying on this immensely powerful Forbidden Technique, became an ally of Konoha Ninja Village as a single family, and even survived until after the Third Ninja World War!
One must know that to be an ally of Konoha, even powerful clans like the Senju Clan, Uchiha Clan, and Vortex Clan suffered heavy losses through continuous sacrifice. The Senju and Uchiha Clans, who joined Konoha, were almost completely wiped out on the battlefield, with the Uchiha being forced into rebellion. Not to mention the Vortex Clan being directly annihilated. However, the Earth Spider, a family that remained outside Konoha, was able to survive until after the Third Ninja World War. If it weren't for internal strife within their family leading to its fragmentation, who knows, they might even have been alive and well after the Fourth Ninja World War!
From this, one can see how terrifying the Forbidden Technique passed down by this family is, so much so that even Konoha dared not touch it. Otherwise, how could greedy Konoha higher-ups like Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura not aggressively act against their allies? It's simply because the opponent's Forbidden Technique truly has the power to destroy Konoha.
Uchiha Tenxiu sighed inwardly, directly pinpointing the origin of the person who made the final move in this ambush.
After all, according to the introduction of this Forbidden Technique in the previous plot, once activated, all life within hundreds of kilometers would be destroyed. Even if that was an exaggeration, even one-tenth of its power would be enough to stand outside Konoha Village and completely destroy Konoha. No wonder the higher-ups, led by Hiruzen Sarutobi, let them be and allowed them to live in seclusion in Gezan City.
It's likely that the so-called alliance was merely Konoha trying to win them over, fearing they might join other Ninja Villages.
It's just, based on the capabilities of this Forbidden Technique.
In the setting, if more natural energy is gathered, and the activation time is longer, it can completely destroy an area with a radius of millions of square kilometers. Even if the anime reduced its effects significantly, even just one-tenth of its power could definitely completely destroy an area of several tens of kilometers. But this time, it only destroyed within a few kilometers? Was it intentional? Is there some reason?
Uchiha Tenxiu couldn't help but feel confused.
He didn't think that the Earth Spider Clan's Forbidden Technique couldn't achieve such power.
After all, as one of the few families in this Ninja World capable of using natural Chakra, similar to Sage Mode abilities.
To activate it after half an hour or even several hours, and achieve this effect, completely fits the worldview of the Ninja World.
Not to mention anything else, even the Six Paths Sage's magical ability to easily create the moon can appear.
Then, achieving a nuclear bomb-like effect in terms of attack range is not something unimaginable.
What's more, this Ninjutsu requires sacrificing a Ninja's life every time it's activated. Similar to this Ninjutsu, the Eight Gates Released Formation, which gains power by sacrificing a Ninja's life, can fight against Six Paths Level powerhouses. So, it's normal for the Earth Spider Clan's Forbidden Technique: Raging Lion Hair to destroy such a range!
So, the Earth Spider became an ally of Konoha around this time? But Konoha Ninja Village hasn't announced this point yet, so that means. The current Earth Spider Clan might just be an ally of the Senju!
But previously, I never heard the elders in the family mention that this family was an ally of the Senju Clan.
So, this ambush was a 'certificate of allegiance', and the Forbidden Technique they activated was either still incomplete and not fully developed. Or, it was already complete, but out of caution towards the cunning Senju Tobirama, they deliberately reduced the Ninjutsu's power, just in case!
Uchiha Tenxiu analyzed silently.
He also secretly decided that he would settle this score with the Earth Spider Clan in the future.
