Revolution in the Ninja World

Night fell. The forest, far from any town, was filled with a serene atmosphere that was full of natural sounds... It wasn't absolutely quiet, but there were natural sounds beyond human voices.

The season had already turned to autumn, but the chirping of birds and insects in the forest rose and fell, never ceasing, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of "The forest is more tranquil when cicadas chirp; the mountain is more secluded when birds sing."

Habara's high-intensity watch duty had been going on for some time. Fortunately, the weather was cool and dry at this time, and although the forest was often damp at night, he could hide high up.

A large mosquito landed on his neck. However, just as this fierce creature tried to suck his blood, with an almost imperceptible "pop," a faint electric current passed through the surface of his skin, and the annoying little thing died just like that... Autumn mosquitoes were terrifying, but a human-shaped electric mosquito swatter was even more terrifying.

And somewhere inside the area guarded by Habara and the other ANBU ninjas, within layers of protective barriers, the delivery room was ready. The mother-to-be had even begun to scream in agonizing pain, but not a sound of it escaped.

So, Habara thought that tonight would be just like the nights he had spent before, quiet and peaceful, until some small, unusual occurrences happened.

As the saying goes, "birds of a feather flock together," and "like attracts like." As people who also aspired to change the injustices of the world and hoped for world peace, it was easy for certain individuals to be drawn to each other. One might call it destiny, or perhaps the red string of fate.

Habara was crouching on a thick branch high up in a large tree. His eyes were fixed on the area in front of him, while behind him, the electric mosquito zapper was having a field day. And then, the next moment...

"Clang!"

An incredibly crisp sound of metal striking metal came from behind Habara. He felt as if something had pushed him. Mosquitoes have that much strength? A second later, he realized something was wrong.

Habara whipped around and saw a person wearing a black robe, a hood, and a spiral mask on his face. He had appeared behind him silently, without him noticing - it was Uchiha Obito.

! Habara's strategy for the Nine-Tails Night was to stay calm and not make waves. He hadn't expected Obito to appear directly behind him. Why? Shouldn't Obito be going directly to help with Naruto's delivery?

It could only be said that he was lucky he was in the habit of "wearing full armor."

Logically speaking, even if Habara hadn't been stabbed to death silently in the first instant, he should have died the moment he turned his head in surprise. However, while he was busy being astonished, the person behind him was looking at the kunai in his hand with a slightly bewildered expression.

At this point, Habara finally reacted. He jumped down from the tree, and while his body was falling, he rolled his tongue, and a metal whistle hidden in his mouth was already between his lips!

Then, an exceptionally sharp whistle pierced the dark night.

At first sight of Obito, Habara was naturally a little flustered. And when he panicked, of course, he had to get the message out first... If it were someone else seeing this kind of enemy, they might have hesitated, perhaps trying to deal with it themselves. But Habara was different; he knew Obito, and he knew that ordinary people were no match for the other's Kamui.

Obito had miscalculated. Whatever he wanted to do, he had picked the wrong person.

Uchiha "Madara," exposed upon entry.

The signal Habara sent was the highest-level alert signal, meaning that this was an enemy that no number of ANBU ninjas could handle. Normally, judging the enemy's strength and sending such a signal had to be done very carefully. Sending false signals would lead to big trouble. Who would dare to blow the whistle recklessly after just one look?

Habara dared.

And just as his three teammates were astonished, and before he himself landed, an iron arrow, fully charged, had already left the string, heading straight for Obito's face.

Such a direct attack, of course, couldn't hit Obito. The iron arrow passed right through him, instantly piercing the trunk of the tree behind him... Habara didn't release this attack to hit Obito; he did it to ensure that the information he was about to convey had a solid basis.

"Be careful, the enemy can use an extremely high-level space-time ninjutsu. My attack was completely nullified!" Habara shouted.

"..."

Obito was stunned. How did he know that ANBU's intelligence gathering was so efficient that they knew his ninjutsu was a space-time ninjutsu after just one encounter?

"Truly worthy of ANBU ninjas," he praised in an old, deep voice, acknowledging Habara's discovery... Obito was a country bumpkin when he was in Konoha; he had no idea what elite ANBU were like.

After receiving Habara's warning, the three teammates rushing over paused for a moment, but then their speed immediately surpassed their previous pace. What was space-time ninjutsu? These ANBU ninjas knew very well, and they also understood the danger of space-time ninjutsu... Who didn't know about the Flying Thunder God Technique, the signature technique of the "Yellow Flash"?

Now they understood that Habara wasn't blowing the whistle for no reason. After learning that the enemy could use such a ninjutsu, they started blowing their whistles too.

One ANBU ninja issuing a warning might be a misjudgment, but an entire ANBU squad blowing the whistle meant the situation was undeniable.

But even knowing that the enemy that had appeared was extraordinary, as long as he was an enemy, ANBU ninjas had to be resolute.

"Attack together, take him down!" Kazeri said.

Habara's mind tightened, and he could only follow his teammates and charge forward... Listen to what the captain just said. How much does that sound like a declaration before a bunch of mooks get wiped out?

Captain, maybe you shouldn't be the captain anymore?

The ANBU ninjas in the entire area had been alerted. According to the pre-arranged tactical plan, a large number of ninjas were already rushing towards this location. And at this time, the four of them, including Habara, transformed into swift lightning, heading straight for Obito.

Habara hadn't wanted to engage Obito at this time, because his current strength wasn't enough to solve any problems, so any engagement was meaningless. However, since his teammates had already made their move, he couldn't choose to abandon them.

Only Habara understood how "Kamui" worked. If the four of them worked together, they could at least stall Obito for a while.

Habara swung his arms, and the Cold Feather Blazing Feather appeared in his hands. Kazeri rushed forward, instantly closing in on Obito, entering a state of close-quarters combat... Under normal circumstances, this judgment wasn't wrong, because facing someone who could use space-time ninjutsu, long-range attacks were meaningless; they would be easily dodged. Only taijutsu attacks had a chance of being effective.

Even against the "Yellow Flash," only close-quarters combat, not long-range attacks, had a chance of working.

Unfortunately, the Yellow Flash's close-quarters combat ability was very strong.

Even more unfortunately, Obito wasn't afraid of close-quarters combat at all. In fact, since the right-eye Kamui could only be activated at close range, Kazeri rushing forward was like delivering himself on a platter. He truly lived up to the mook declaration he had just made!

Facing the oncoming Kazeri, Obito reached out his right hand without dodging or evading. But just as he was about to grab Kazeri's wrist, a mercury-like sword, carrying a chill, slashed at his body from the left.

Obito, of course, couldn't be cut in two, but he also couldn't use Kamui to deal with Kazeri.

Habara's longsword directly split the large tree, and then the blade turned in a half-circle, almost grazing Kazeri's head, startling the latter into a cold sweat.

At this time, Obito reached out again to grab Kazeri, and Habara, while kicking at Obito, used his shoulder to shove Kazeri away, creating some distance between him and Obito.

" Riku! Don't panic! You almost killed me!"

Kazeri thought Habara was so nervous in the face of a strong enemy that he had lost his composure.

However, Habara couldn't explain in detail why he did what he did. He could only shout loudly:

"Be careful, the enemy suddenly appeared here. He has the ability to teleport instantly! Don't get too close to him! Captain, I don't think you want your lower body to stay in Konoha while your upper body goes on a trip to the moon!"

"Damn it, why didn't you say so earlier!"

I didn't say so earlier? Nobody told me earlier that that day was October 10th, and today is also October 10th!
