A veteran of the ninja world: surviving from the Six Paths of Heroes to Boruto

[Finally, an 8.0 rating! This rating was really tough to achieve. My book didn't have many supporters, but quite a few negative reviews. Fortunately, I have the support of many readers. I wish my readers a joyful and peaceful March, and that all their wishes come true.]

A chilling killing intent, mixed with extreme fanaticism, filled the eyes of Uchiha Fox with a crimson hue that was almost overflowing, without the slightest hesitation!

"Uzuki, I'm sorry, please forgive me."

Fox drew a steel dagger hidden at his side with a backhand motion, and with a flash of cold light, plunged it fiercely into Senju Uzuki's heart!

"laugh--"

The sound of the blade slicing through flesh was particularly jarring, as the cold metal sank into the warm body!

"what!"

Senju Uzuki froze abruptly, her face, which had been flushed from suffocation, instantly drained of all color.

"fox....."

With her eyes lowered, Maoyue stared intently at the steel knife that had plunged into her heart. Her pupils contracted sharply, and hot tears rolled down her cheeks without warning!

It crashed onto the cold ground, shattering into a crystalline fragment.

It really...it really stabbed me?

The Uchiha Fox, who had been entangled with her for half her life in the chaos of war, a worthy opponent, a kindred spirit, and who had never truly killed her even when they were on the battlefield, actually harbored murderous intent towards her.

Didn't we agree on that?

Even if they were divided between different ethnic groups, even if they were at war, they would never be willing to harm each other in the slightest.

Isn't this a testament to their mutual understanding?

Why?

Why now of all times, and in such a cruel way, to personally plunge a knife into her heart?

"Fox...you...you...have you...forgot..."

She opened her chapped lips, and soft, breathy sounds escaped her throat. All the questions, confusion, and heartbreak that had accumulated over half a lifetime were stuck in her throat, and she couldn't utter a single word.

"I'm sorry Uzuki."

Uchiha Kitsune's hand was still gripping the hilt of the sword tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force. Two streams of hot tears slid down his cold, handsome face, dripping onto Senju Uzuki's clothes and spreading out dark water stains.

Where was the last trace of fanaticism for power in the fox's eyes?

All that remained was overwhelming grief and despair, along with the madness and helplessness of being driven to the brink of despair. All these emotions intertwined and tore him to pieces.

In his youth, the only person who was kind to him was killed by Uchiha Kitsune with his own hands!

The excruciating pain in her chest spread to her limbs and bones, and Senju Uzuki's eyes gradually lost their luster, the fluctuations of chakra receding rapidly like a tide.

Senju Uzuki looked at the fox, her body could no longer support her, and she collapsed softly onto the cold floor of the mourning hall.

The fox dared not look into Maoyue's eyes, dared not face those eyes.

In the month of Maoyue, those stubborn, loving, and sorrowful eyes closed forever.

Uchiha Kitsune trembled violently. He staggered back two steps, clutching his aching chest with his right hand. His legs gave way, and he collapsed heavily to his knees beside Senju Uzuki.

"Aaaaaaahh ...

Uchiha Kitsune screamed wildly.

At that very moment, the three-tomoe Sharingan in his eyes suddenly began to spin wildly!

The crimson background resembled boiling waves of blood, while the three tomoe rapidly twisted, deformed, and merged, transforming into a complex and eerie new pattern never before seen in the ninja world.

Kaleidoscope Sharingan!

Completely and thoroughly awakened and formed!

An eerie light flickered in his eyes, and a terrifyingly powerful gaze swept across the entire mourning hall in an instant. Yet, Uchiha Fox felt no joy, only endless sorrow.

The fox reached out, its hand trembling, its fingertips gently brushing against Senju Uzuki's cold cheek, wiping away the undried tears from the corners of her eyes. Its voice was hoarse and choked with sobs:

"Uzuki...it's not me who ruined you, it's this chaotic world that ruined you..."

"If I lack power, I cannot protect the Uchiha clan, nor can I safeguard everything I wish to protect. I will only be crushed to ashes by this chaotic world..."

"For my own sake, and for the sake of the entire Uchiha clan, I have no other choice but to take this path..."

Tears blurred the fox's vision, the crimson light of the kaleidoscope intertwining with the sorrow in his eyes.

Inside the mourning hall, white silk still hung down, and incense smoke curled upwards.

At this moment, a sound came.

Footsteps approached hurriedly outside the mourning hall, and several Uchiha ninjas, their bodies stained with faint traces of blood, bowed and knelt on one knee.

"Clan leader! The five elite Thousand Hands warriors on the outer perimeter have all been dealt with!"

Uchiha Fox slowly withdrew her gaze from Senju Uzuki, the grief and trembling in her eyes vanishing completely, replaced by a layer of icy coldness.

He silently rose, walked step by step to the coffin, bent down and gently lifted the lifeless Senju Uzuki, placing him steadily into the coffin that had originally been prepared for himself.

The person inside the coffin still had the same features, but would never open their eyes again, would never confront him again, and would never cause him to struggle between love and hate again.

The fox closed the coffin lid, its voice calm and utterly unwavering, yet carrying an undeniable resolve:

"Pass on my order—under the cover of night, cross the river in white robes, and seize both the South and North Rivers to launch a full-scale offensive against the Thousand Hands clan!"

Several Uchiha ninjas trembled, their eyes instantly igniting with fanatical flames, and they kowtowed heavily:

"Yes, ma'am!!"

They had long been fed up with the long-standing policy of keeping a low profile, and with the need to proceed cautiously and patiently.

For ten years, the Uchiha Fox ruled in secret, cultivating its strength and advancing science, leading the clan from decline back to its peak. Everyone had been waiting for this day—

Once the clan leader gives the order, we will strike with overwhelming force and sweep across the ninja world!

Moments later, a low horn sounded within the Uchiha clan's territory.

The entire clan, without even having time to change out of their mourning clothes, assembled with everyone draped in white silk, wearing mourning cloths on their heads, and carrying ninja tools, exuding a murderous aura.

The white mourning clothes stretched out like a surging tide in the night, and the solemn funeral was transformed in an instant into a rallying cry for battle.

Uchiha Kitsune stood at the very front of the group, his Mangekyou Sharingan glowing a cold, crimson in the darkness.

"All troops, attack! Fight to the last moment!"

"Long live the Uchiha!"

At a single command, the Uchiha army moved like unsheathed blades, advancing silently under the cover of night, and swiftly attacked the Senju clan's territory.

The Uchiha army, clad in white, resembled a group of demons emerging from the underworld. Under the cover of night, they silently pounced on the Senju clan's defensive line deployed in the North and South Rivers.

The Senju clan was completely unprepared!

They were also convinced that the Uchiha clan was deeply grieving the sudden death of their clan leader and would never launch a war at this time.

The defenses on both sides of the He River were extremely lax; some clansmen were even gossiping about the details of the Uchiha funeral and the rumors between Uzuki and the fox.

They were completely unaware of the impending catastrophe.

It wasn't until the sky was ablaze with fire-style techniques, the night sky was scorched, and kunai rained down as the Uchiha clansmen, dressed in mourning clothes, charged forward that the Senju guards were suddenly awakened!

Amidst the fluttering white silk, the cold glint of the blade flashed!

The mourning clothes that should have symbolized grief have now become the most dazzling battle armor!

The Uchiha clan, fueled by ten years of dormant resentment, tore through the Senju's defenses with unstoppable force.

The members of the Thousand Hands were completely dumbfounded.

Why would a fully armed Uchiha army suddenly appear at the funeral of the Uchiha clan chief?

Wasn't Uchiha Kitsune already dead?

Also, where did our Elder Maoyue go?

Before his doubts could be resolved, the cold blade was already at his feet, and his screams instantly echoed throughout the North and South Hechuan River.

The Senju clan, a war machine that dominated the ninja world, was shattered by the Uchiha's surprise attack before it could even complete its operation and gather its members.

The hastily assembled Senju warriors were thrown into disarray and were no match for the Uchiha clan, who had been plotting for a long time and possessed overwhelming combat power. They could only retreat in defeat.

After a night of bloody battle, corpses littered the fields, and the waters of the Hechuan River were stained crimson.

The Uchiha clan has seized control of both the strategically important Nanga River and Hokuga River!

The Senju clan suffered a crushing defeat, with heavy casualties, and the remaining clan members were no longer able to resist!

Only then did the higher-ups realize that it was all a deception by the Uchiha clan.

The strongest fighter of the Senju clan, Senju Uzuki, is missing and his fate is unknown.

Left with no other option, the higher-ups had to urgently order a full retreat, using the last of the tribe's strength to shrink the defensive line and hold fast to the core area of ​​the tribe's territory.
