The Real Deal Appears
"Sorry, you're a bit too late," Gen said with a grin to the Jonin who had just arrived. As his Sharingan spun, he noticed three Chunin surrounding him, silently forming an encirclement.
Unfortunately, the Jonin wasn't from the Hyuga clan.
This Jonin was the one stationed deep in the granary and happened to be the younger brother of the Ye Mu clan leader—the second most powerful member of the Ye Mu family.
The Ye Mu Jonin quickly surveyed the scene and noticed the bodies of three Special Jonin lying on the ground. Anger flashed in his eyes as he asked coldly, "Did you kill them?"
Gen raised an eyebrow slightly, finding the reaction odd. At a time like this, every second the flames consumed more of the grain. Shouldn't he be focused on putting out the fire instead of interrogating him? Moreover, he didn't seem too concerned about the burning granary; his rage was directed at the loss of the Special Jonin.
"Shouldn't you be trying to put out the fire?" Gen asked directly, as he always voiced his doubts.
The Ye Mu Jonin was silent for a moment before dismissing the three Chunin with a wave of his hand. He replied coldly, "What do these grains have to do with us? It's not like we're the ones who need them. Whoever needs them can put out the fire themselves."
Gen narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking to himself, This basically confirms that the grain was purchased by the Hyuga clan. And judging by his attitude, it seems the Ye Mu clan might not be entirely aligned with the Hyuga.
"Eight Trigrams Palm, Air Strike!"
A booming voice echoed from the distance as a blast of chakra in the form of a palm wind scattered the flames across one section of the granary. However, the revealed grain had already turned to ash.
"Finally, the main player shows up. And, as expected, not knowing water-release techniques is a tragedy," Gen remarked with a mischievous grin, clearly enjoying the misfortune.
"Eight Trigrams Air Blade! Eight Trigrams Palm Rotation! Eight Trigrams Lion's Roar!"
The Hyuga Jonin who had arrived was putting in an impressive effort, expending his chakra recklessly as if it were endless. He even managed to clear a section of the fire temporarily.
Gen sneered and said, "This won't do. Fire Release: Great Fireball Jutsu!"
A massive ball of flames roared through the recently cleared section, reigniting the flames.
"You—!" The Hyuga Jonin nearly spat blood in anger as he glared at Gen. With a few leaps, he closed the distance. He had finally realized that saving the granary was a lost cause.
Jonin were incredibly fast, and in just a few jumps, the Hyuga Jonin landed next to the Ye Mu Jonin. He had been drinking tea in the clan leader's residence earlier and had hesitated to leave when Ye Mu Jichuan went to the front gate. The sudden fire at the granary had shocked him, and he had rushed over immediately—only to find himself too late.
"Why didn't you put out the fire?" the Hyuga Jonin demanded angrily.
The Ye Mu Jonin smirked sarcastically and replied calmly, "I don't know water-release techniques."
That single sentence nearly made the Hyuga Jonin explode with rage. However, since they were both Jonin and a conflict between them would be unwise, he forced himself to hold back. Instead, he asked coldly, "Then why didn't you deal with this kid?"
The Ye Mu Jonin snorted, "Didn't you notice? His eyes—they're Sharingan, and a three-tomoe Sharingan at that."
The Hyuga Jonin stiffened, only now realizing the significance. His earlier fury had clouded his judgment, and Gen's youthful appearance had caused him to underestimate him. Now that he took a closer look, the crimson Sharingan spun ominously in Gen's eyes.
The three-tomoe Sharingan of the Uchiha clan was legendary during the Warring States period. Anyone who possessed it was not to be trifled with. Looking at the bodies of the three Special Jonin, the Hyuga Jonin noticed that their fatal wounds were clean and precise—each a single killing blow.
Calm now, the Hyuga Jonin asked gravely, "Uchiha Gen?"
Gen was slightly surprised and asked, "You know me?"
The Hyuga Jonin slowly drew the blade from his back and said coldly, "The Uchiha clan's strongest next-generation genius. A monstrous talent who awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan at the age of five. If we couldn't recognize you, the Hyuga clan would have no place in the Warring States." He then added, "It seems my luck is good today."
Being praised, especially by an enemy, was always a pleasant feeling. Gen grinned broadly and nodded as if to say, That's right, I really am this extraordinary.
"Unfortunately, this Uchiha genius will die here today. Killing you will make up for the loss of the grain," the Hyuga Jonin said coldly, his voice dripping with killing intent. The veins near his pale-white eyes began bulging as his Byakugan activated.
"I know you have some strange space-jumping ninjutsu," the Hyuga Jonin continued. "The princess mentioned it after her last visit to our clan. You need kunai to perform it, don't you? Don't worry; I won't let any of your kunai get near me. And once I catch you, I'll seal your chakra flow with Eight Trigrams techniques. Without chakra, all your ninjutsu will be useless."
Gen listened intently to his opponent's monologue and nodded as if in agreement. Then he replied bluntly, "What a great plan—but what's the point?"
The Hyuga Jonin roared in fury, activating the Body Flicker Technique and appearing beside Gen in an instant. His blade was aimed at Gen's neck, but before it could land, Gen's body vanished into a flash of light. When he reappeared, he was outside the granary, standing over the corpse of a Special Jonin, a kunai embedded in the body beneath him.
"Not bad speed," Gen remarked casually, throwing six kunai in quick succession.
The Hyuga Jonin's face grew serious. With a precise swing of his blade, he created a circle of chakra, deflecting all six kunai with a series of sharp clangs.
"Hm?" The Hyuga Jonin frowned. The kunai didn't scatter as expected but instead seemed to hover around him, as if attached to invisible strings.
"Chakra threads?" In the moonlight, faint threads glimmered, connecting the kunai to his blade. "When did they…"
"Rasengan."
The Hyuga Jonin turned abruptly at the sound. Gen had appeared directly in front of him, a spinning chakra sphere glowing in his palm, aimed squarely at his chest.
"I was waiting for this," the Hyuga Jonin sneered. Releasing his grip on his sword, he dodged the Rasengan and countered with lightning-fast strikes. "Eight Trigrams Chakra Seal!"
His hands moved like blurs, pressing on Gen's chakra points to seal his flow.
"Kid, once your abilities are exposed, countermeasures are inevitable."
"Is that so?"
A calm voice came from beside him. The Gen in front of him vanished in a puff of smoke, replaced by the real Gen standing near his discarded sword.
"This Shadow Clone—was it part of your plan too?" Gen smirked, holding another glowing Rasengan.
