Sasuke was really scared out of his wits when the Jonin of his clan couldn't even withstand a single blow from the mysterious man.
Looking at the mysterious man who was walking towards him step by step, he began to fall into a trance. It was as if the mysterious man wasn't wearing a mask with the image of a hungry ghost on his face, but a hungry ghost from the underworld himself!
Hyōjin didn't stop and walked to Sasuke in a few steps.
Sasuke, who fell to the ground, stumbled backward and said, "You … What are you doing?!"
Holding Sasuke's little face, Hyōjin looked at his black eyes and said coldly, "You haven't even awakened the Sharingan of Ichigo Magatama? It seems that you are a useless piece of trash!"
Sasuke's face suddenly turned red, and he tried to break free from Hyōjin's hand, but his struggle was like a tickle to Hyōjin.
Zhishui also looked at Sasuke, and his face under the mask was full of worry.
Although he knew that Hyōjin wouldn't really hurt Sasuke, he was still a little worried that the young Sasuke wouldn't be able to accept the scene in front of him. After all, Sasuke's clan had never experienced cruelty and death!
At this time, Hyōjin pulled Sasuke up, lifted him in the air, and said disdainfully and calmly, "A piece of trash like you is not even qualified to die in my hands!"
After saying that, Hyōjin punched Sasuke in the stomach and threw him aside.
"Blergh …"
Sasuke, who was punched, knelt on the ground and retched.
Naturally, Hyōjin didn't use much strength in the punch just now, but even so, his light punch was enough to make the young Sasuke suffer.
The main reason Hyōjin did this was to maintain the public image of Amatsukami as a bounty ninja.
Otherwise, letting a member of the Uchiha clan go for no reason will inevitably cause the Uchiha Clan and even the entire village to be suspicious. After all, killing people to ensure that there are no witnesses is a compulsory course for any ninja.
In addition, Hyōjin also wanted to give Sasuke some pressure in advance.
For Hyōjin, Naruto and Sasuke were his last insurance.
Hyōjin was full of confidence in himself, but this didn't mean that he would be blindly confident and look down on everyone. Therefore, it was necessary to arrange a layer of insurance for him, who was cautious by nature.
Once he went too far, Naruto and Sasuke's roles would be revealed. At the very least, they wouldn't completely ruin the situation.
After all, the enemies weren't limited to the shinobi world, there were also the Otsutsuki from outer space who could descend at any time.
Suddenly, in the vision of Hyōjin's Tenseigan, a lot of Chakra reactions appeared.
Noticing that a large number of ninjas were rushing towards him, Kuroto immediately moved towards the fainted Uchiha Hideki and lifted Uchiha Hideki while whispering to Zhishui: "Follow the plan!"
Shisui worriedly looked at Sasuke, who was on the ground in pain, and immediately nodded.
…
In the Uchiha Clan's Land.
Itachi, who had just finished his mission, was walking towards the training ground that Sasuke had agreed on.
Itachi smiled when he thought that his brother, Sasuke, might be bored waiting for him in the training ground at this moment.
If there was anything that could make Itachi feel happy and warm, it would be his younger brother Sasuke's love and dependence on him. That kind of feeling made him indulge in it.
Boom …
Suddenly, from the direction of the training ground, a signal flare was raised.
Itachi immediately looked up, and his pupils shrank because he recognized this signal flare, it was the signal flare issued by the Uchiha Clan's police force for help.
"Sasuke!"
Itachi's mind flashed with the image of Sasuke's young figure.
So he almost didn't think, his figure flashed, and he used the Body Flicker technique to rush towards the direction of the signal flare.
Just like Itachi, many Uchiha clansmen who discovered the signal flare rushed towards the direction of the signal flare, so they quickly gathered together and formed a large crowd.
Not only that, many Muye ninjas nearby also rushed towards the direction of the signal flare with doubts.
As far as everyone knew, the signal flare was usually fired on the battlefield or in the wild. It was rare for a signal flare to be fired in the village, except for a few times such as the "Nine Tails Rebellion".
Not long after, a large number of ninjas arrived at the place where Uchiha Hideki was attacked. What they saw was not a fierce battle, nor was there any suspicious person, only a child kneeling on the ground and retching non-stop.
A non- Uchiha Clan Muye ninja stepped forward and asked, "Child, did you fire the signal flare just now?"
Because there were no traces of battle around, he subconsciously thought that the child in front of him had accidentally touched the signal flare and fired it.
At this time, Itachi also rushed over. His eyes quickly swept over Sasuke's body. After confirming that there were no obvious injuries on Sasuke's body, he walked towards Sasuke while vigilantly observing the surroundings.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh …
Amidst the sound of wind breaking, more and more ninjas arrived at the scene. Everyone's eyes were on Sasuke.
Itachi squatted beside Sasuke and asked gently, "What happened just now, Sasuke?"
"Brother!"
Seeing Itachi, Sasuke immediately rushed to him, the tears that he had been suppressing couldn't help but pour out.
Itachi gently comforted Sasuke, "Alright, alright. What happened here? What was with the signal flare just now?"
Sasuke, who had recovered from his shock, said with tears and snot, "There were two strange people who attacked Uncle Hideki here. They … They were very strong, they defeated Uncle Hideki in one blow, and … and punched me hard!"
"What!?"
The Uchiha clansmen on the side were shocked.
At first, the Uchiha Clan members, like the Muye ninja who had arrived first, thought that the young Sasuke had accidentally triggered the signal flare, so they didn't pay much attention to it.
But now that they heard that Hideki Uchiha was attacked, they finally realized the severity of the situation.
Itachi wasn't too surprised, or perhaps he hid his surprise very well. He calmly asked, "Sasuke, did you see who attacked Uncle Hideki?"
Sasuke had a deep impression of Hyōjin and Zhishui from Amatsukami, so he immediately answered, "Both of them were wearing black cloaks and strange masks!"
"Black cloaks? Masks? " Itachi's face darkened as he vaguely guessed their identity. He then asked softly, "Do you remember the patterns on the masks?"
Sasuke nodded, "One was a frightening hungry ghost pattern, and the other was a flame pattern. The one who defeated Uncle Hideki was the one wearing the flame pattern mask!"
Suddenly, a voice came from the tree, "It's Amatsukami!"
Everyone turned around and saw the leader of the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Fuyue, standing on the tree with a gloomy face …
