"Genya... what did you just say? This old father's heart can't handle it, don't say such reckless things!"
Uchiha Kinya looked at Genya, who had just removed his weights, feeling like he had heard something shocking but wasn't entirely sure. It seemed like his son was planning to fight against two Chūnin.
However, the amount of weights his son had removed was astonishing—far more than his own body weight by several times—yet Genya still stood there, appearing completely normal without any signs of strain.
It seemed his son had been training under Might Guy for a while and had become overly confident!
But this wasn't the time to show off. They needed to run away as quickly as possible.
With that thought, he tried to pull Genya away.
"Dad, you have to trust me!" Genya dodged his father's hand, giving him a reassuring look. "Step back for a moment, so you won't get caught up in the fight!"
Nakahito Kishibe had already been pushed to his limit, unable to resist any longer. Someone struck his chest, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
His body was sent flying and crashed heavily onto the ground. Still, he tried to struggle: "If you want to pillage Konoha, you'll have to step over my dead body!"
Nakahito Kishibe was quite determined and passionate.
One had to admit, the Third Hokage's brainwashing was thorough, and the people selected for the Anbu were deeply loyal to him and to Konoha, making them easy for him to use.
As Genya was reflecting on this, a lightning ball struck Nakahito Kishibe.
In an instant, Nakahito Kishibe's body was enveloped in electricity, his mouth foaming, and his eyes rolling back. "You... you..."
Before he could finish his sentence, his body convulsed and collapsed, losing consciousness.
The two Cloud Village ninjas exchanged a glance and raised their kunai, ready to take Nakahito Kishibe's head.
"He's still useful to me. You can't kill him!" Genya's young voice suddenly rang out, stopping their actions.
"Oh, the little brat didn't run away? Interesting!" The Cloud ninjas sneered when they saw the kid stepping forward.
They had already learned about Genya's identity before arriving—a monster from the Uchiha clan, yet he still dared to step out.
"Stop wasting time. The commotion here might have already caught someone's attention. Let's finish this!" said the leading Cloud ninja, charging at Genya.
First, they would kill this kid, then kidnap Uchiha Kinya.
"Son, run!" The battle between ninjas could be decided in a blink of an eye. By the time Uchiha Kinya tried to stop them, it was already too late. Being a civilian, he had no place in a ninja's fight.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
As the two Cloud ninjas moved in for the kill, a cold gleam flickered in Genya's eyes. He tapped the ground with his toes, and in an instant, a blur shot forward.
In the blink of an eye, he was right in front of them, sending one of the ninjas flying with a sharp knee strike, before moving swiftly to attack the second one.
After removing his weights, Genya's speed increased significantly, catching the two Chunin off guard.
"This kid is a taijutsu expert!" the leading Cloud ninja muttered, clutching his abdomen and wiping away the blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. "It's just a little brat—kill him!"
Genya bent down and picked up a kunai from the fallen Chunin at the riverbank, then charged forward once more. He had the strength and speed to match the two Cloud ninja, and as the battle continued, two tomoe appeared in his eyes.
The Dual Pupil Sharingan allowed Genya to perceive the movements of the ninjas, enabling him to anticipate their actions and respond with ease. Even when facing lightning-style jutsu, he could counter them effortlessly.
"Second Brother, keep him occupied while I prepare a jutsu!" the lead Cloud ninja ordered, stepping back and quickly forming hand signs.
Meanwhile, the other Cloud ninja rushed in to engage Genya, but he was more than capable of handling a single opponent. Within just a few exchanges, two deep cuts appeared on the enemy ninja's body.
Genya followed up with a powerful kick, sending his opponent flying.
"How dare you hurt my brother!" The lead Cloud ninja's hands moved even faster, and the chakra within him surged wildly.
"Lightning Release: Thunderball!"
After finishing the hand seals, a lightning sphere formed in his palm, much larger than the one that had hit Nakahito. Its bright glow illuminated the surroundings.
The Cloud ninja then flicked his wrist, sending the Thunderball hurtling toward Genya.
"Does it really take that long to form a jutsu ?" Genya had already been observing the flow of the ninja's chakra with his Dual Pupil while the seals were being formed, and he had secretly prepared his own counter.
For a simple technique , Genya didn't even need to form hand seals. Still, he mimicked a few signs to disguise his intentions.
A Thunderball materialized in Genya's small hand.
With a flick of his wrist, he sent it flying.
The two Thunderballs collided, and the crackling of electricity echoed around them. A brilliant light burst at the point of impact, flickering like a flash of lightning in the night, before both spheres dissipated, canceling each other out.
"Wha... How is this possible? This kid can use ninjutsu, Thunderball?" The Cloud Ninja was in disbelief. He never expected a child of just a few years old to perform ninjutsu that was on par with his own. The speed of the hand seals was even faster than his!
Didn't they say that Uchiha Kinya's son was useless?
This was no useless child; he was a genius! At such a young age, he could rival two of their Chūnin!
It seemed that the plan to kidnap Uchiha Kinya had failed. With this child around, it would never succeed. However, he did gather some important information: Uchiha Kinya's son was a genius who could not be allowed to grow unchecked.
"Why is it impossible? Look at my eyes!" Just as the Cloud Ninja was still in shock, a cold voice rang out. Then, Genya's small figure appeared right in front of him.
The Cloud Ninja was confused but followed Genya's lead and looked into her eyes.
What he saw were dual pupils, and within them were two spinning tomoe that looked particularly unique.
"Sharingan, activated with two tomoe. I didn't expect your useless dual pupils could awaken too?" At first, the Cloud Ninja was still in shock, but as he locked eyes with Genya, his tone slowly became dull and hesitant, eventually turning blank.
"Boss, what happened to the boss?"
The Ninja who had been kicked away saw his partner frozen and became anxious!
He got up and attacked Genya again, trying to rescue his boss.
The commotion from the battle had likely attracted some attention. They needed to leave quickly.
This time, Genya didn't engage directly with them but fought while retreating, no longer as fierce as before, almost as if she was playing with the Cloud Ninja.
This frustrated the second-in-command of the Cloud Ninjas, making his attacks even more intense!
Suddenly, a kunai pierced through his chest from behind.
The fighting ninja froze, slowly turning his head to see the person behind him, his pupils shrinking in horror. "B-Boss!"
