LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 79 The Price of Greed
As her companions died one after another, until she was the only one left, the pressure on Mieko Uchiha can be imagined.
Especially when she caught sight of ‘Naraku’ and Sasori not far away, the pressure was even greater.
Although ‘Naraku’ and Sasori did not attack, the two of them just standing there were enough to give Mieko Uchiha a palpitating sense of oppression.
Escape!!
The invisible pressure made Mieko Uchiha almost breathless.
Looking at the extremely tenacious Nono across from her.
Catching ‘Naraku’ and Sasori who were eyeing her covetously not far away.
The thought of running away involuntarily emerged in Mieko Uchiha’s mind.
It was not that she did not have the dignity of the Uchiha, nor that she did not want to avenge her companions, but the current situation made her see no hope at all.
Once the thought of running away came into her mind, she could no longer stop it.
"Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Technique!"
Uchiha Mieko made a quick seal after leaping backwards, squeezing out the little remaining chakra, and spitting out dozens of fire bombs from her mouth.
Some of these fire bombs were directed at Nono Ue on the opposite side, but more were directed at 'Naraku' and Sasori not far away.
After performing the fire style, Uchiha Mieko, who landed, quickly burst out the maximum chakra and rushed straight to the distance in the opposite direction.
With a casual wave of his hand.
Seeing the fire bombs flying, Sasori was about to attack, but a huge chakra arm had already condensed from behind 'Naraku'.
With just a casual palm, all the flying fire bombs were scattered.
"How can I let you escape!"
'Naraku' looked at Uchiha Mieko who was trying to escape, and raised his hand to make a sword finger.
Thunderbolt!
A thunderbolt shot out in an instant, crossing the distance between the two sides, and directly pierced the chest of Uchiha Mieko, who was already at the end of her strength.
A scream.
Uchiha Mieko had a look of reluctance on her face, but she was powerless to save the situation. She immediately fell to the ground and soon lost her life.
The lightning dissipated from the sword finger.
‘Naraku’ put down his right hand calmly.
He originally wanted to use the opponent to hone Nono, but the opponent chose to escape in the end. In this case, he could only end the training in advance.
Anyway, there is nothing to regret.
After all, the battle just now has actually served as a good training for Nono.
“Is it solved? Huh, the Uchiha people are really difficult to deal with. If I didn’t have sufficient intelligence on the opponent, I’m afraid I might not be able to hold on until now.”
Uchiha Mieko’s last fire escape not only failed to delay ‘Naraku’ and Sasori, but also failed to hurt Nono.
Dodging the incoming fire bombs, Nono, who originally wanted to chase, found that the enemy had been solved by ‘Naraku’. She immediately stopped insisting and sat on the ground and gasped.
Looking at the corpse of Uchiha Mieko not far away, Nono recovered his strength and recalled the battle with the opponent just now, and he couldn't help but feel scared.
The battle between ninjas is not only a competition of hard power, but also a contest of intelligence.
Sometimes the latter is even more important than hard power.
The battle between Nono and Uchiha Mieko has lasted until now, and intelligence has played a big role.
Thanks to Danzo's fear of the Uchiha clan, Nono knows the fighting style of the Uchiha clan very well.
Especially elite ninjas like Uchiha Mieko are the top priority of the Root Organization's intelligence collection target.
"Let me help you heal, otherwise when the main body comes back, I might blame me for not protecting you well."
'Naraku' came over, teasing, and came behind Nono to treat him with the "Palm Fairy Technique".
"The thinking of the shadow clone is inherited from the original body, and the judgment you make is no different from that of the original body."
After receiving the treatment of the "Palm Immortal Technique", Nono's pain was immediately relieved, and he even had the energy to chat with "Naraku".
"Sharingan, the Uchiha clan was really tricked by Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen this time."
In the Xingying Building, Naraku, sitting on the sofa, sighed as he looked at the pairs of Sharingans stored in glass containers on the coffee table.
When he returned to the Star Ninja Village, Nono's battle had ended, but with the feedback from the shadow clone, he still knew what happened in the first place.
He didn't expect that in addition to the two captives Huangtu and Han, Nono's side also captured fourteen pairs of Sharingans for him.
The reason why there are only fourteen pairs of Sharingans is that the remaining three pairs of Sharingans were damaged in the battle.
But fortunately, the best five pairs of three-magatama Sharingans were well preserved.
Among the many ninja clans, the Uchiha clan is definitely rich and powerful, with many masters in the clan.
But with the loss of five elite jonin and twelve jonin at once, it is definitely a serious blow to the Uchiha clan.
Through the secret technique of the Yamanaka clan, Naraku has read the relevant memories from Uchiha Gouko and others, and knows the reason why they came.
Although according to Uchiha Gouko's memory, it was only Danzo who came to the Uchiha clan, but it is obvious that Sarutobi Hiruzen must have supported him.
The current result can only be said to be in the interests of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Danzo.
Similarly, he did not lose anything, after all, he also gained fourteen pairs of Sharingan.
So in the end, it seems that only the Uchiha clan was injured.
Well. This can also be said to be the price of greed.
"Sharingan is one of the best bloodline limits, but this bloodline limit is extremely exclusive. According to the records left in the Sand Village, even if you get Sharingan by transplantation, there will be side effects such as inability to close and severe chakra consumption."
After putting away the Hiryu Amber, Scorpion, who showed his true form, sat on the sofa opposite.
He glanced at the Sharingan on the coffee table and saw that Naraku seemed very interested in Sharingan, so he reminded him.
Organ-type bloodline limits like Sharingan are often plundered by ambitious people through transplantation.
The best example is the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan.
In order to prevent the Byakugan from being taken away by others, this clan even developed the curse seal of "Bird in a Cage".
Although the Uchiha clan did not do this, it was also because Sharingan was extremely exclusive.
As Scorpion said, even if outsiders transplanted Sharingan, there would be various side effects.
These side effects, compared with the benefits brought by Sharingan, would seem to be more harm than good.
"The Root Organization also has records about this!" Nono, who was sitting next to Naraku, nodded.
After receiving treatment from the Shadow Clone, Nono's injuries have almost recovered.
Even after Naraku returned and nourished him with his true energy, his physical strength has been restored.
Therefore, after a simple wash and change of clothes, Nono followed him to the office.
Naraku naturally understood what Sasori and Nono said.
