「What happened?」

At the same time as the sharp explosion sounded, Mitarashi Anko subconsciously covered her ears. Now she just felt her brain buzzing, in a daze and at a loss.

She turned her head and saw that Uchiha Rin and Shibi Aburame were both looking in the direction where the arrow had flown with shocked expressions, their pupils trembling slightly.

「Satoru, is this the ninjutsu you've been training to master?」

Uchiha Rin recalled the first time she met Hinata Satoru in the ninja tool shop. The helpless and unwilling look on his face when he couldn't afford a bow and arrow left her shock beyond words.

Shibi Aburame took a deep breath. Besides the shock, there was a hint of profundity in his eyes. Through the perspective of his insects, he saw more.

There was no chakra fluctuation detected on the arrow. Its speed exceeded the reaction limit of ordinary ninjas, and it had an ultra-long-range striking distance. Coupled with the field of vision of the Byakugan...

This is an ultimate ninjutsu designed for assassination that could change the course of a war!

Was it a ninjutsu developed by combining two bloodlines?

The combination of two types of chakra was a bloodline limit, and the combination of three types of chakra was Kekkei Tota (a higher-level ability in the Naruto world, a combination of three types of chakra). But what was the combination of two bloodline limits???

「Teacher Shibi, you can put me down now.」

「Oh!」

The voice of Hinata Satoru from above pulled him back to reality. After responding, he controlled the insects to let Hinata Satoru land on the ground.

「Satoru, are you okay?」

Seeing Hinata Satoru looking pale and feeble, Shibi Aburame asked worriedly.

「I'm fine.」 Hinata Satoru shook his head. 「I just overused my chakra and am exhausted. I'll be fine after taking a rest for a while.」

「That's good.」 Shibi Aburame let out a sigh of relief. 「Let's go and take a look at that Iwa ninja.」

Hinata Satoru's eyes glinted. In fact, given his current state, he could only shoot at most three arrows with the power of that last shot. However, this move was too astonishing, so it was better not to expose his limits.

Killing that Iwa ninja was necessary. Otherwise, if he were to return to Iwagakure Village alive, Hinata Satoru would probably be subjected to endless assassinations by the Iwa ninja. And what he lacked the most right now was time to grow.

He was from the branch family and couldn't betray Konoha. Naturally, the greater his value to the Hokage, the better. Even if he couldn't join the Hokage's faction, he could at least use the power of the Hokage to balance the main family.

With these thoughts in mind, the group had already reached the location where the Iwa ninja had died.

His body, along with the scroll on his back, had been torn apart forcefully from his waist, creating a scarlet flower on the grass. Perhaps the process of death had been too quick, for his face still retained the look of horror from the moment before his death, looking incredibly lifelike.

「What a pity. If I could have aimed more accurately, maybe I could have killed him without destroying the scroll.」

Hinata Satoru felt a twinge of pain at the loss of the supplies in the scroll. The scroll was like a key to open the storage space. Once the scroll was damaged, unless they could find the location of the storage space, there was no way to take the supplies away.

「Don't say that.」

Shibi Aburame twitched the corner of his mouth and immediately persuaded Hinata Satoru to stop showing off in a false-humble way.

「The bow ninjutsu you've developed, when paired with the power of the Byakugan, is truly terrifying. It's unheard of. Even if I were to face it from afar, I'd be in a tough spot.」

「Teacher Shibi, you're overpraising me. It's just a humble technique,」 Hinata Satoru shook his head.

Shibi Aburame took a double critical hit.

「Alright,」 he replied listlessly. Shibi Aburame then gave an order, 「Clean up the battlefield. Consider this battle a complete success.」

After a moment of thought, Shibi Aburame added another instruction.

「Regarding the bow ninjutsu developed by Satoru, don't spread the word when we get back to the village. Don't disclose it to anyone.」

Whether it's to keep Hinata Satoru's personal information confidential or out of prudence because of his branch family status, the fewer people who know about this unheard-of bow ninjutsu, the better.

「Yes,」 Uchiha Rin and Anko nodded gravely.

After returning to Konoha, Shibi Aburame gave the entire Team 3 a rest period and then hurried to the Hokage's office without delay.

「It's Shibi. How did it go? Have you completed the mission I assigned you?」

Seeing the person enter, Hiruzen Sarutobi put down the work at hand and said with a smile.

「I've completed it successfully.」

「Is that so?」 Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded and praised, 「It seems that with you leading the way, this team has grown quite fast.」

Shibi Aburame took a deep breath and said, 「Lord Hokage, besides this, I have something to report to you.」

Then, Shibi Aburame reported everything that had happened during the mission one by one.

「Uchiha Rin awakened the Sharingan? Hinata Satoru developed a strange bow ninjutsu and killed an Iwa ninja at a distance of nearly one kilometer?」

Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep breath, a hint of solemnity appearing in his eyes. The former was still acceptable. A 9-year-old awakening the Sharingan was undoubtedly a rare talent, but it wasn't unheard of.

However, the latter's bow ninjutsu was truly unprecedented.

A combination of two bloodlines? Is it possible to develop such a peculiar ninjutsu?

「Does the main family know about this?」

Shibi Aburame shook his head. 「On the way back, I had a brief conversation with Satoru. He said he's only recently been gradually mastering this technique. The main family should be in the dark.」

「I see,」 Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded. 「Then there's no need to inform them. Let nature take its course.」

「Those from the Hyuga clan are way too stubborn and stuck in their old ways. If they find out that Hinata Satoru is practicing bow ninjutsu, there'll likely be another outburst of dissatisfaction.」

「Hinata Satoru is a ninja of Konoha, there's no doubt about that. In the war that's coming up soon, the ninjutsu he developed might work wonders.」

Hearing this, Shibi Aburame took a deep breath and tentatively asked, 「Lord Hokage, is war about to break out?」

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed helplessly. 「The Second Shinobi World War has been over for ages. The strength of each village has reached its peak. Lately, the scouts have reported that those villages seem to be up to something. It's just a matter of who cracks first.」

「I see,」 Shibi Aburame nodded solemnly.

"Shibi, all you need to do is take good care of these students. They are all the leaves that keep the village thriving."

"Yes, Lord Hokage!"

The Uchiha Clan Compound.

In a forest, Uchiha Rin was punching and kicking a wooden dummy like crazy with bare hands. A tomoe slowly spun in her scarlet pupils. The sound of her physical attacks echoed in the empty forest.

"Do you still prefer to train by yourself?"

"Who!"

Uchiha Rin suddenly turned around and saw an old man wearing the Uchiha clan uniform standing behind her. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's.

"Oh, it's Elder Sasuna. What's up?"

The hostility on Uchiha Rin's face subsided a bit.

Seeing Uchiha Rin's Sharingan, a glint of eagerness flashed in Uchiha Sasuna's eyes.

"These eyes, awakened at the age of 9. Rin, you are a true genius.

"Although Shibi Aburame is not weak, he won't be able to unlock the true potential of these eyes. Leave that team. Withdraw on the pretext of illness. I will teach you the real power of the Uchiha clan."

A look of disgust flashed in Uchiha Rin's eyes, and she frowned slightly.

"I appreciate your kindness, Elder Sasuna, but it's only there that I can grow the fastest."

Uchiha Sasuna's gaze was piercing. "Is it because of that Hyuga brat named Satoru?"

"Elder, you don't need to meddle in my affairs!" The disgust in Uchiha Rin's eyes grew deeper, and she stared at him with a hint of hostility.

"Although awakening a second kekkei genkai is one in ten thousand, he is still just a branch family member. I didn't expect you to care so much."

Uchiha Sasuna shook his head slightly.

"Fine. Since you've made your decision, I won't force you."

After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving Uchiha Rin looking puzzled.

A sneer showed in those eagle-like eyes. I didn't expect your bond to be so deep. Well, the deeper the feelings, the more painful it will be when they are destroyed. Only in this way can the true power of the Uchiha clan be awakened...
