Chapter 13 All or Nothing
Chapter 13 All or Nothing
The war between the two clans lasted for half a month. In addition to the overwhelming power of Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, Chu Yang's name also gradually came into the public eye among the younger generation.
Fame often brings with it danger.
After learning that Chu Yang was the successor whom Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju were grooming with all their might.
The Uchiha clan became even more determined to kill Chu Yang.
A genius even Hashirama Senju values will surely become a major threat to the Uchiha clan in the future. They will never allow a second Hashirama Senju to appear!
Therefore, in the following battles, Chu Yang was treated with great "attention" by his opponents on the battlefield!
Wherever Chu Yang appears, that place will become the second battlefield center after Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha.
Tobirama Senju was no pushover either. He seemed to have anticipated the other party's plan and used Chu Yang as "bait" to launch several brilliant ambush battles.
But this did not seem to deter the Uchiha clan from their desire to nip Chu Yang in the bud.
As long as Chu Yang dares to appear on the battlefield, the enemy will send their elites to surround and kill him without fear of death.
The unexpected troop strength and hysterical frenzy meant that the subsequent ambush did not achieve the desired effect.
At this point, things had gradually slipped out of Tobirama Senju's control.
By the time he came to his senses... it was too late to remove Chu Yang.
On the battlefield, Chu Yang seemed to have become a symbol amidst the fierce struggle between the two sides. If Chu Yang were to be withdrawn to the rear for protection at this time, the morale of the Thousand Hands Clan would be severely damaged.
In this way, the advantage that Tobirama Senju had established in his previous battles became meaningless.
Therefore, both sides could only focus on Chu Yang!
They continuously deployed troops and increased their stakes, launching an unimaginably fierce offensive and defensive battle.
Its importance in shaping the course of the entire war even surpasses that of the battle between Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha.
Late at night or early morning.
The Uchiha clan's camp.
Madara Uchiha and his younger brother Izuna Uchiha were discussing the key to victory or defeat in a brightly lit secret room.
"Brother, if this drags on any longer, the situation will turn against us. We must take a desperate gamble, gather the remaining illusion masters in the clan, and take care of that brat named Thousand Hands Yang."
"As long as he dies, the once-mighty Senju clan will instantly plummet to rock bottom, and then we'll be guaranteed to win this war!" Uchiha Izuna gave his opinion under immense mental pressure, his eyes bloodshot.
Madara Uchiha did not respond immediately, his eyes fixed on the crisscrossing chess pieces on the sand table. Just as Izuna had said, the Senju clan was constantly eroding their power.
If we continue with the status quo, losing this war is only a matter of time.
"You will personally lead the team to handle this matter. It must be successful. If we fail, we will have no chance to turn the tide!" Madara Uchiha said solemnly.
Uchiha Izuna nodded, turned around and walked out of the secret room.
Watching his younger brother's departing figure, Madara Uchiha suddenly felt a little regretful. If he could, he would like to go himself, but he had to hold off Hashirama Senju on the front lines.
Apart from him, no one in the Uchiha clan could withstand Hashirama, and vice versa.
That night, Uchiha Izuna summoned ten genjutsu masters from his clan, preparing to infiltrate the Senju clan's camp and assassinate Chu Yang.
Of course, there are many people in the Uchiha clan who are skilled in genjutsu, but when it comes to assassinations, the more people involved, the greater the chance of something going wrong.
Ten people was the optimal number that Uchiha Izuna had repeatedly considered, and there were even some among these ten who could be sacrificed in critical moments.
They knew perfectly well what was going on, yet they went without hesitation.
Under the moonlight, the group of people silently disappeared into the darkness.
Meanwhile, Chu Yang had returned to his tent to rest after a day of fighting.
But for some reason, Chu Yang just couldn't fall asleep.
Even though my eyelids are drooping from exhaustion, I always wake up suddenly just as I'm about to fall asleep.
"What kind of strange negative buff is this?"
After tossing and turning in bed for a long time, Chu Yang angrily got up, sat on the edge of the bed, and muttered curses under his breath. Then he fell into self-doubt, wondering, "Could it be that my body is too weak?"
"Pah, pah, pah, pah!" Chu Yang immediately denied it as soon as he finished speaking. He was a vigorous young man with full of energy, how could he be weak?
If it's not a physical issue, then it's a mental one.
Speaking of his spirit, Chu Yang discovered that not only had his domineering aura become stronger, but his intuition had also become more acute when facing danger on the battlefield.
"There must be some danger that's making me so uneasy!" A thought flashed through Chu Yang's mind, and he immediately unleashed his full Observation Haki to completely envelop his surroundings.
Using his Observation Haki, Chu Yang sensed that eleven people with unknown auras were crossing the Senju clan's outposts and heading in his direction.
"Assassination?" Chu Yang sneered, guessing the Uchiha clan's intentions, but he didn't expect them to target him for assassination.
Chu Yang used Wood Release: Shadow Clone Technique to leave the clone on the bed, then secretly left.
They're getting ready to call in reinforcements to trap them like turtles in a jar.
In order to deceive the enemy, Chu Yang did not inform the guards standing watch outside.
On the other side, Uchiha Izuna, leading the clan's elite fighters, was breaking through the Senju clan's defenses. At each checkpoint, there were genjutsu masters who were responsible for silently hypnotizing and guarding the guards.
After breaking through numerous obstacles, Uchiha Izuna led his men to the vicinity of Chu Yang's tent. Once they dealt with the guards at the entrance, their mission would be a sure thing.
At Izuna Uchiha's signal, five genjutsu masters simultaneously cast a spell, silently trapping all the guards in a genjutsu.
"Lord Izuna, isn't everything going too smoothly?" The oldest man in the group suddenly spoke up.
"The most skilled genjutsu practitioners in the clan are all here. If we can still fail at this, then we might as well give up and surrender," Uchiha Izuna replied coldly.
The old man gave a wry smile, said no more, and returned to the line.
The others stayed outside, while Uchiha Izuna lifted the tent flap and went in alone. He saw "Chu Yang" fast asleep, his face showing great fatigue.
"So young..."
When Uchiha Izuna saw Chu Yang's face, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was already considered one of the best among the younger generation of ninjas, but Chu Yang was even younger than him.
Even Uchiha Izuna, an enemy, would feel regret at killing such a young genius.
However, Izuna Uchiha knew perfectly well that being merciful to the enemy was being cruel to himself. If Chu Yang were allowed to grow up, what awaited the Uchiha clan might be hell!
Just thinking about these things made Uchiha Izuna's face turn ferocious, and he took out a kunai and stabbed it hard into Chu Yang's neck!
The moment the kunai pierced Chu Yang's neck, the sensation it sent back made Uchiha Izuna's face turn deathly pale!
"A wooden clone?!"
