Chapter 6 Kidnapping a Wife
Upon hearing that Uchiha Mitsumine's request was for her to become his woman, Uzumaki Megumi immediately felt deceived.
Her almond-shaped eyes widened, and she angrily demanded, "Why! Why are you mocking me like this?"
Her voice trembled noticeably, a mixture of anger and resentment.
Seeing the other person's appearance, Uchiha Mitsunori composed himself.
Huiyi Uzumaki is approximately 16-17 years old, 162cm tall, slightly thin, and has some teeth marks on her arms...
So he met her gaze calmly and replied, "The Land of Whirlpools has been destroyed for over 14 years. Your clan has wandered far and wide for many years, enduring countless hardships, so it's normal for you to lack trust. But do you really think I would risk my life to come here just to joke with you?"
Upon hearing this answer, she lowered her head slightly and fell silent.
After a while, she slowly raised her head, her eyes filled with worry, and asked, "If I go with you, then... what will happen to the other clansmen living in Kusagakure?"
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Mitsumine was secretly delighted. Her question indicated that she already had a preference.
So he replied methodically, "I suggest you become an affiliated clan of the Uchiha. In this way, I will have a legitimate reason to send people to bring them back to Konoha and provide them with appropriate protection and supplies."
"By the way, how many of you are currently living in Kusagakure?"
Uzumaki Megumi stared intently into Uchiha Mitsunori's eyes, and only after confirming that he wasn't lying did she slowly say, "Including me, there are 16 of us in total, including 3 children and 2 elderly people. What method do you plan to use to bring them back to Konoha Village?"
They originally thought there were only 3-4 Uzumaki clan members living in Kusagakure, so sending 5-6 ninjas to infiltrate the village would be enough to rescue them. But now there are more than a dozen, so they have to change their plan.
After a moment's thought, Uchiha Mitsunori said in a domineering tone, "Kusagakure has about 1000 ninjas, including 63 Jonin, of whom only 11 are elite Jonin. I will bring 20 elite Uchiha Jonin with me, and then the leader of Kusagakure will have no choice but to hand him over!"
In truth, given his position within the Uchiha clan, he didn't have the authority to dispatch 20 clansmen. However, he could use the ninjutsu "God Transformation" for a transaction, which would likely interest many elite Jonin.
After hearing the other party's plan, Uzumaki Megumi hesitated. He only sent 20 people, while Kusagakure had more than 1000 people, so she was full of worries about the future of her clan.
Seeing the slight change in her expression, Uchiha Mitsunori decided to act decisively.
"Don't worry, I'll rescue your entire tribe within three days. Besides, your two teammates are already dead, and letting you go back would only invite criticism, so just pretend you've been kidnapped!"
After saying that, he took out a rope and skillfully tied up Huiyi Uzumaki, then carried her steadily on his back.
Before leaving, he added, "It will take about 90 minutes to get back to the Konoha front-line base from here. I will encounter some ninjas along the way, and I will use ninjutsu to fight them. If my chakra is depleted, I will need your help."
"I see!"
......
After a series of twists and turns and stealthy advances, they finally approached the defensive zone of Konoha's front line more than fifty minutes later.
Because the journey ahead was relatively safe, the Uchiha Mitsunaga no longer concealed himself and strode forward quickly.
This move instantly attracted the attention of many people.
When Kusagakure Jonin Kakuta saw Uzumaki Megumi tied to his back, his expression changed drastically, and he shouted, "Quick, stop him! The girl behind him is the village's medical ninja; she's an important asset to the village!"
Following Kakuta's shouts, 11 Kusagakure ninjas appeared one after another and chased after the Uchiha Mitsurugi.
Suddenly, the atmosphere became tense.
Seeing the Kusagakure ninjas around him, Uchiha Mitsunori's lips curled up slightly, revealing a confident smile.
He whispered to Uzumaki Megumi on his back, "Watch closely, I'll show you the power of the Uchiha."
Having said that, he continued walking without stopping, his hands quickly forming hand seals: Wei-Shen-Hai...Yin (God and Demon Transformation).
A red-haired head grew from the shoulders of Uchiha Mitsuhide, and a pair of arms grew from below his arms.
Suddenly, the monster with two heads and four arms... reappeared before the world.
Because the Grass Village ninjas' encirclement was in a circular formation, Uchiha Mitsunori quickly encountered the enemy.
Two Kusagakure Chunin approached rapidly, each holding a kunai, one aiming for the heart and the other for the abdomen.
Despite the attacks from the two, Uchiha Mitsunori showed no fear. His three-tomoe Sharingan spun rapidly, and the attacks from the two Kusagakure Chunin appeared to be in slow motion in his eyes.
Suddenly, he swiftly unleashed two fists the size of earthenware pots, slamming them heavily into the faces of the two Kusagakure Chunin. With a dull thud, their bodies were sent flying backward like cannonballs, raising a cloud of dust.
Seeing that the two were about to escape the encirclement, Kusagakure Jonin Kakuta was extremely anxious and shouted, "Since we can't stop them, then don't worry about the woman behind him, kill them without mercy!"
At this command, the surrounding Kusagakure ninjas no longer held back and launched deadly attacks.
Wind Release: Wind Blade
Water Release: Water Bullet
......
In an instant, all sorts of ninjutsu, kunai, and shuriken rained down on the two of them.
Uzumaki Megumi was merely a medical ninja with only Chunin-level strength. Faced with such a dense barrage of attacks, she was instantly terrified, her face turning ashen, her palms sweating, and her heart pounding wildly.
Meanwhile, Uchiha Mitsunori remained calm and collected, his fingers moving with lightning speed, forming hand seals: "Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!" "Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"
The more chakra injected when performing ninjutsu, the greater the power of the ninjutsu.
Because he had Uzumaki Megumi by his side, he decided to splurge and used 2.5 times the amount of chakra!
As the hand seals were completed, a fireball with a diameter of 10 meters appeared out of thin air, and more than a dozen gusts of wind howled out. With the support of Wind Release, the flames swept towards the Kusagakure group with overwhelming force.
It is November, and the Grass Country is lush with vegetation, so wherever the flames pass, they crackle and pop, as if the entire mountain is about to be swallowed up by the scorching flames.
Seeing his opponent unleash such a powerful combination ninjutsu, Kusagakure Jonin Kakuta felt a sense of foreboding.
He retreated with the speed of a ghost, shouting, "Retreat! Dodge! The opponent's ninjutsu is very powerful!"
The 12 Kusagakure ninja present were all at least Chunin level, and they reacted very quickly, retreating one after another.
However, three unfortunate souls were unable to escape and were mercilessly swallowed by the fiery wave, turning into three charred corpses.
Looking at the fan-shaped wall of fire with a radius of about 60 meters, the remaining nine Kusagakure ninjas exchanged glances, their eyes filled with hesitation and fear.
For a moment, they were unsure whether to continue the pursuit...
Taking advantage of this gap, Uchiha Mitsunori quickened his pace and ran towards the Konoha front-line defense area.
As he ran, he said to Uzumaki Megumi on his back, "How was it? My strength is not bad, right?"
"Yeah, that's really impressive..."
