At that moment, a figure hurried over. "Clan Head, why have you come in person?" The speaker was none other than Uchiha Yamashiro.
Originally, Yamashiro had successfully awakened his Sharingan thanks to the secret ninjutsu developed by Uchiha Shiyu, thus gaining the supreme honor of an Uchiha clansman. Furthermore, with Shiyu's prestigious status as clan leader, Yamashiro became completely loyal to him.
In fact, most members of his squad were in a similar situation to him. For this reason, this unit was regarded by Uchiha Shiyu as his personal elite force.
"The rear affairs are almost settled now. Besides, we've got Deputy Director Renga Uchiha there, who's perfectly capable of handling any situation. And how could I possibly sit back and enjoy the comforts while you all fight courageously on the front lines? Our Uchiha Clan has never had a clan leader like that!" said Uchiha Shiyu, his tone filled with passion.
Yamashiro and his subordinates were instantly stirred by these words, their faces flushed with excitement, eyes shining brightly. They looked at this majestic clan head with deep admiration and reverence. If not for the need to stay quiet here, they would've cheered loudly. Because Shiyu's behavior perfectly matched all their expectations of an excellent clan leader.
Yet at this moment, Shiyu didn't dwell much on their reaction. With a sharp gaze, he continued his calm analysis: "Just now, I've carefully sensed the surrounding area. I must say your caution was wise.
According to my investigation, the number of enemies in this camp is about 300. Presumably our continuous hunting operations these past few days have alerted the Iwa-nin Village, prompting them to launch this counterattack.
Oh right, no time to waste—go immediately inform Director Renga Uchiha and have him ensure everyone else remains vigilant. Underestimating them would be dangerous." Seeing the current scene, Shiyu immediately thought of other areas needing attention and gave instructions accordingly.
"As you command, Clan Head!" Yamashiro responded without hesitation, immediately turning to urgently issue orders to his companions. Soon, one ninja summoned his own summoned beast to deliver the message to the main base, ensuring that Renga Uchiha received the news promptly.
A short while later, Yamashiro hesitated briefly before finally asking Uchiha Shiyu, "Clan Head, under these circumstances, what exactly should our response be?"
Uchiha Shiyu stared ahead with a sharp gaze, a slight confident smile playing at the corners of his mouth as he answered, "Hmph! When the prize is already within reach, who would give it up easily? Let me check things out first; if possible, we'll naturally swallow it whole without hesitation!
Based on my sensing, the strongest here are at most a few jonin. With our current strength, we're definitely qualified to take action—we just need to be careful to strike at the right moment."
After speaking, Uchiha Shiyu turned his head toward Yamashiro and continued giving instructions: "You get everyone to rest temporarily in place first, but also fully prepare for immediate combat readiness."
"Wait for my signal. Once I find the right moment, I'll notify you immediately, and everyone will launch a surprise attack together." As soon as he finished speaking, Shiyu Uchiha left the group and approached the Iwa-nin using his excellent Shifting Body Technique. He then activated his Sensor Ninjutsu and moved between locations after each sweep.
After several hours of careful observation, Shiyu Uchiha was confident he'd gathered almost all the intel on both the visible and hidden Iwa-nin teams.
The visible team had more members, roughly equivalent to Uchiha Yamashiro's squad, but their composition of experts was rather ordinary. The hidden team had fewer personnel—only half the number of the visible team—but they were more elite. Confidently, he started crafting a detailed battle plan.
Once the entire operation plan was arranged properly, Shiyu Uchiha didn't relax in the slightest; he maintained high alertness, continuing to monitor every move of the Iwa-nin closely.
Just before dawn arrived, Shiyu Uchiha keenly noticed a flaw appeared in the Iwa-nin's defense during a shift change. Delighted inwardly, he deeply understood this was the perfect opportunity to initiate an offensive.
Then, Shiyu Uchiha issued an order to Uchiha Yamashiro and his subordinates, instructing them to stealthily infiltrate the outer perimeter of the Iwa-nin's alert zone, urging them to patiently await further operational commands.
After making these arrangements, Shiyu Uchiha personally led his elite guard unit deeper inside, successfully infiltrating into the inner area, silently eliminating several guards stationed there in the process.
Immediately afterward, he signaled his guards to get fully prepared, ready to respond to any patrolling Iwa-nin that might appear. As for himself, he proceeded alone toward the enemy base camp with extreme caution.
Everything was proceeding methodically according to plan. When Shiyu Uchiha approached the nearby region of the base camp, he waited briefly, sensing until he detected that Uchiha Yamashiro and others had initiated their attack and been sensed by the enemy's Sensor Ninjutsu user.
He took a deep breath, concentrated his mind, and started channeling the vast chakra within his body. Watching closely, he slowly formed hand seals following a special pattern, finally shouting softly: [Fire Release: Great Dragon Flame Jutsu!]
In an instant, a powerful stream of flames surged from his mouth, forming a massive dark red dragon-shaped fireball infused with Yin Release energy. Roaring fiercely, it thundered as it surged toward the Iwa-nin's encampment. Wherever this fiery dragon passed, even the air seemed to twist and distort from intense burning heat.
Yet, Shiyu Uchiha didn't stop to admire the destructive effects of this mighty jutsu. To maximize the distraction and create greater chaos among the enemy, he unleashed the same technique once again.
Two more enormous dark red fire dragons soared into the sky, flying off in different directions and instantly setting vast areas of tents ablaze, flames shooting high into the air with thick smoke billowing everywhere.
Meanwhile, spotting Shiyu Uchiha's Fire Release signal, Uchiha Yamashiro and his group immediately charged toward the Iwa-nin ranks like tigers bursting from the mountains.
Meanwhile, Shiyu Uchiha's Elite Guard Unit followed the plan and took immediate action, swiftly removing traps to ensure a clear path for Uchiha Yamashiro's team to launch their assault.
Soon after, they hurriedly moved to reinforce Shiyu Uchiha's position. At this moment, Shiyu Uchiha's eyes remained locked onto several powerful Jonin within the enemy ranks. A breathtaking clash was about to begin.
The Iwa-nin who were resting suddenly sensed an extremely powerful energy surge rushing toward them like a tsunami! The Jonin inside the main tent snapped to attention, responding with lightning reflexes.
Without delay, an experienced Jonin unleashed the Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall jutsu, hoping to counter the incoming onslaught.
