This talisman was simply to prevent anyone from damaging the Byakugan.
The reason was simple: possessing the Byakugan made one an internal battle god among the Mist ninjas, who loved to start fights with the Water Release: Hiding in Mist Technique!
"Too bad that doesn't block sensing." Kiyoshi slowly closed his eyes, a faint smile still playing on his lips.
The Sharingan was already subtly active.
Even if he couldn't use the Sharingan to pierce the mist, he could still use it for status stacking and augntation.
Chakra was slowly being consud.
At the sa ti, his Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, and Genjutsu were all comprehensively enhanced!
*Crackling sound!*
Electrical arcs appeared beneath Kiyoshi's feet. The effect of his Trait allowed him to handle an astonishing amount of Lightning Release chakra.
The Yang Release chakra within his body began to spread.
Kiyoshi hadn't learned Sensing Ninjutsu, so he only had a very short, crude range.
But for him, that was already enough.
"Kiyoshi Uchiha, your Sharingan is useless in this mist." i Terumi's laughter drifted from the depths of the mist, carrying a hint of contempt.
Her tone conveyed absolute confidence in her victory.
*Whoosh!*
i Terumi had released a Water Release Jutsu soti earlier, and the resulting mass of water surged toward Kiyoshi.
Kiyoshi tilted his head, dodging the Water Release Jutsu. He slapped the sealing scroll at his waist, summoned his ninja blade, and accelerated forward.
A gust of wind suddenly rose, tearing the mist apart!
Kiyoshi dashed across the arena at hyper-speed. The airflow he generated swept like a gale, and the thermal convection caused by the temperature difference accelerated the dissipation of the mist.
"Why can't I see anything?"
"Hidden Mist ninjas are indeed cunning. They start with such a despicable technique."
"I heard that even the Sharingan cannot see through a Mist ninja's Water Release: Hiding in Mist Technique. That Uchiha is in trouble now."
"If he had Wind Release, he could fight it, but I've never seen any Uchiha use Wind Release, and it seems this Kiyoshi doesn't either, as no one ever seen him use it."
i Terumi's technique completely obscured the arena below, leaving the people above to only speculate.
"Kurenai, Kiyoshi is in trouble now." Asuma pointed at the match below.
Kurenai Yūhi pressed her lips together, worried for Kiyoshi.
"Wait…" Kurenai's red eyes widened. The mist in the arena was rapidly dissipating.
"Wh-What's going on?"
"!" i Terumi looked at the scene in astonishnt.
Why had her Water Release: Hiding in Mist Technique thinned out so much?
"How pathetic. Did you really think you could hide here like a turtle just with this little mist?"
"The high-speed circulation of Lightning Release chakra heats the air. As the hot air rises, cold air descends, accelerating the diffusion of the mist. Furthermore, the wind pressure from my high-speed movent tears the mist layer apart, creating strong convection currents. Your Hiding in Mist Technique can block the Sharingan, but it cannot block the laws of physics." Kiyoshi said flatly.
The Ninjutsu was good, but unfortunately, his accumulated knowledge was far greater than the shallow i Terumi's.
i Terumi's face changed slightly. She imdiately perford hand signs, ready to regenerate the mist.
But Kiyoshi gave her no chance.
"Now, let's completely break your Jutsu." Kiyoshi perford hand signs with both hands. His current chakra control ability was strong enough to even make subtle adjustnts to his Ninjutsu.
What Kiyoshi intended to do now was combine the chakra nature of Wind Release with the chakra nature of Fire Release.
The [Chakra Nature Transformation Master (Blue)] Trait ntioned combination Ninjutsu, so as long as the requirent for this designation was t, he would receive the amplification.
He simply needed to release the chakra one after the other.
This was not difficult; only simultaneous release truly tested a ninja.
When both types of chakra swirled within Kiyoshi's body, his throat filled with Fire Release chakra.
Kiyoshi exhaled a fla. Just as the fla was about to form a fireball, he added a slight amount of Wind Release chakra.
Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!
The 40% amplification from the Trait caused the fireball to undergo a sudden change.
The blazing fireball quickly swelled up like a water-filled balloon, the intense heat reflecting on i Terumi's astonished face.
"Water droplets are nothing but steam at high temperatures. Your chakra can no longer maintain the effect." Kiyoshi spoke words that i Terumi didn't understand.
There was a distinction between pure Ninjutsu and Ninjutsu that utilized the environnt.
i Terumi had condensed chakra into the air to form the mist.
When the attached chakra was affected, i Terumi's mist would only revert to ordinary mist.
i Terumi imdiately kneaded chakra, guiding it through her circulatory system.
The speed of her hand signs created afterimages. Just as the fireball was about to hit her, she spat out a corresponding water-sphere-like mass.
Water Release: Water Formation Wall!
*Splash!*
The water sphere suddenly burst open, enveloping the fireball and releasing a massive cloud of steam.
Flas suddenly burst from Kiyoshi's ninja blade. He swung a fiery red crescent moon through the air.
i Terumi held her kunai, cursing inwardly as Kiyoshi rapidly closed in.
Now that Kiyoshi Uchiha had locked onto her position, he would interrupt her every ti she tried to cast the Hiding in Mist Technique.
*Bang bang bang!*
All of i Terumi's actions were captured by Kiyoshi's eyes.
"Do you hate that much?" Kiyoshi opened his eyes. The crimson Sharingan looked sowhat demonic.
i Terumi pressed her lips together, quickly parrying Kiyoshi's ninja blade without uttering a word.
Every contact between them erupted in a shower of sparks.
After only a few exchanges, the kunai in i Terumi's hand was already red-hot, the heat even transferring to the handle.
"If you were strong enough, your teammate wouldn't have been killed by . Ultimately, you are the one who caused his death, aren't you?"
Unfortunately, Kiyoshi's words instantly made i Terumi break.
i Terumi felt a surge of anger and humiliation.
What kind of twisted logic was that!
Her beautiful face was murderous. She opened her crimson lips and spat out a few words:
"Lava Release: lting Apparition Technique."
From her mouth erupted a stream of yellow, viscous, and highly corrosive acid.
Kiyoshi imdiately retreated, dodging the attack.
The Lava Release: lting Apparition Technique was strong enough to lt a Susanoo; he did not want to take it head-on.
"It's ti to end this."
Kiyoshi's eyes flashed red. Caught off guard, i Terumi fell under Kiyoshi's Genjutsu.
Her body froze stiffly, as if she had been fixed in place.
"Damn it, it's a Sharingan Genjutsu…" i Terumi's face turned pale.
The sparse mist was now completely unable to prevent Kiyoshi from casting a Genjutsu!
"Your comrades were all killed because of you, i Terumi." Kiyoshi quietly walked in front of i Terumi.
"This is all your fault, you bastard!" i Terumi cursed loudly, unable to maintain her elegance in front of Kiyoshi.
*Slap!*
i Terumi was slapped by Kiyoshi, instantly sending her tumbling to the ground.
"You wanted my Sharingan. My killing of your people was nothing more than self-defense. Did you expect to gouge out my eyes and give them to you?" Kiyoshi sneered.
Before intending to harm others, one must first be prepared for the possibility of being hard.
If Kiyoshi had his Sharingan stolen, it would only an he had slacked off in his training and hadn't been diligent enough.
