Chapter 3 - Fire Release! Kill!

Uchiha Ryosuke, who decided to intervene.

Soon followed the movements and auras he perceived, tracking them to the battlefield where the two sides were clashing.

As soon as he reached the edge of the battlefield, the strong smell of blood assailed his nostrils.

"The downside of extremely keen perception is also obvious…"

Uchiha Ryosuke frowned slightly, subconsciously trying to control his perception.

Unexpectedly, it actually worked.

The strong, pungent smell that had been assaulting his nostrils lessened.

This unexpected discovery made him a little happy.

He hadn't expected his perception to be freely controllable by his will.

He easily landed on a large tree and quickly scanned the scene below from a high vantage point.

The situation of the entire battlefield became clear at a glance.

The number of Konoha logistics personnel under attack was approximately twenty.

Because the logistics support unit had more non-combat personnel.

After being attacked by the enemy, they were suffering heavy casualties at this moment.

Except for the few Chunin who were still stubbornly resisting.

The rest were either severely wounded or tragically killed on the spot.

And those five Kirigakure Ninja (Hidden Mist Ninja) were still wantonly hunting down the wounded.

And clashing with the resisting Konoha Ninja.

"Reinforcements?"

One of the Kirigakure Ninja (Hidden Mist Ninja) quickly noticed Uchiha Ryosuke, who had suddenly appeared on the periphery.

Immediately after, two kunai shot towards Uchiha Ryosuke.

Although their flight speed was fast, their trajectory and the position they were about to hit.

Were clearly outlined in Uchiha Ryosuke's eyes and even his mind.

Such a miraculous perception greatly astonished Uchiha Ryosuke, but also filled him with sudden joy.

He raised his hand and drew his kunai.

At the critical moment, after deflecting the two kunai with two "clang-clang" sounds, he immediately formed hand signs at lightning speed without a word.

"Fire Release • Gōkakyū (Great Fireball) Jutsu!"

All of Uchiha Ryosuke's movements were fluid and seamless.

It was a natural counterattack launched due to being attacked.

This Gōkakyū (Great Fireball), under normal circumstances, would not have a maximum diameter exceeding three meters.

However, at this moment, as Uchiha Ryosuke's Chakra condensed in his throat.

A large amount of Fire Release Chakra erupted, forming a giant fireball with a diameter exceeding five meters.

The giant fireball, carrying terrifying high temperatures, pressed down on the enemies.

No sooner said than done.

That Chunin from the Hidden Mist Village probably never imagined that the opponent coming to support would be so troublesome.

He originally thought that two kunai would be enough to deal with that pale-faced, sickly-looking, dying guy.

Who would have thought that the opponent not only easily blocked his attack but also instantly counterattacked with such a powerful Fire Release Ninjutsu?

The enemy had clearly also been through fierce battles, developing powerful combat instincts.

Facing a life-or-death crisis, the opponent unleashed astonishing power.

While rapidly retreating, he also immediately counterattacked.

He was still in mid-air when he began rapidly forming hand seals.

Uchiha Ryosuke saw the enemy's movements clearly.

"Tiger... Snake... Rat... Water Formation Wall?"

Uchiha Ryosuke saw the opponent's hand seal sequence and immediately understood what Ninjutsu the opponent intended to use.

A sneer played on his lips: "Too late."

At this distance, the Gōkakyū (Great Fireball) had already arrived, carrying a scorching heat capable of instantly scalding a person.

Given the opponent's hand seal speed, even if he could cast a Water Formation Wall,

the high-temperature Gōkakyū (Great Fireball) would still superheat the opponent's Water Release, forming high-temperature water vapor of over a hundred degrees Celsius.

What's more, Uchiha Ryosuke wouldn't just sit there waiting for the opponent to fall.

He raised his hand and added two more kunai, a return favor for the opponent's earlier sneak attack.

Even if the Gōkakyū (Great Fireball) couldn't kill the opponent, these two kunai would absolutely take his life.

And at the same moment Uchiha Ryosuke made his finishing move,

the system's notification sound once again echoed in his mind.

"Ding! You have witnessed the enemy use Water Release Ninjutsu and have automatically comprehended all Water Release Ninjutsu series."

"All Water Release Ninjutsu series, including D-rank to S-rank Water Release."

As the notification sound rang in his mind,

Uchiha Ryosuke clearly felt a large amount of information appearing in his head.

This information was, of course, all about the methods of using Water Release Ninjutsu and techniques for conserving Chakra.

"Awesome!"

Uchiha Ryosuke had now truly come to appreciate the power of his heaven-defying comprehension.

He no longer made a fuss like he did at the very beginning.

All of this, in reality, happened in a flash.

Just then, the Gōkakyū (Great Fireball) he threw had already hit the opponent.

"Boom!"

Flames erupted.

That Kirigakure Ninja (Hidden Mist Ninja).

Indeed, he failed to release Water Release in time to block Uchiha Ryosuke's attack and was instantly swallowed by the Gōkakyū (Great Fireball).

When the explosion subsided, sparks flew.

The man had completely turned into a fire person.

He screamed in agony amidst the raging flames.

A moment later, he collapsed, motionless.

"Who said Fire Release couldn't kill people?"

"Didn't I just take one down?"

Uchiha Ryosuke merely glanced.

Confirming that the Kirigakure Ninja (Hidden Mist Ninja) had lost the ability to resist, he turned to attack the other enemies.

The remaining four enemies were currently being held back by members of Konoha's logistics support team.

Both sides were evenly matched, like chickens pecking at each other, neither able to gain an advantage.

Seeing one of their members defeated,

the remaining four Kirigakure Ninja (Hidden Mist Ninja) were also very cunning.

They had no intention of staying to clash head-on with Uchiha Ryosuke.

"This guy is from the Uchiha clan; watch out, there might be other Uchiha nearby! Retreat first!"

What appeared to be a leading Kirigakure Chunin shouted a reminder to his companions.

At the same time, his short sword.

After feinting a strike at the Konoha Ninja he was fighting, he leaped back, clearly intending to escape.

The other three Kirigakure Ninja (Hidden Mist Ninja) immediately followed suit and retreated.

However, those Konoha Chunin from the logistics support team did not pursue.

The recent battle had taken a toll on them too.

Each person was either physically exhausted or running low on Chakra.

Chasing now would gain them no advantage whatsoever.

After stopping, the Konoha Ninja instinctively looked at the approaching Uchiha Ryosuke.

A hint of surprise flashed in their eyes.

But before any of them could speak,

Uchiha Ryosuke had already bypassed them, going after the four fleeing Kirigakure Chunin.

"You killed so many of our people; now you want to get away unscathed? It's not that simple!"

Uchiha Ryosuke, starting later but arriving first, quickly caught up to the four enemies, sneering as he decisively attacked.

"Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique!"

This technique was like a celestial maiden scattering flowers.

Small fireballs the size of washbasins, under Uchiha Ryosuke's control,

flew out one after another, heading towards the backs of the four enemies...
