"No, compared to Killer Bee, this mere secret technique is nothing to speak of." A pulled out a scroll from his side and threw it. "Besides, this technique isn't something just anyone can learn. A slight mistake and you'll lose control of your chakra and explode."
As he spoke, A looked at Kai and said, "You don't mind me saying that, do you?"
Kai hadn't expected A to have a scroll on him. He caught it without looking at it, and smiled gently, "Thanks for the reminder. Hopefully, the next time we meet, you won't be surprised."
"I'll release the genjutsu."
As soon as he finished speaking, Kai's nine-tomoe Sharingan stopped spinning.
The Eight-Tails trapped in the genjutsu let out a roar.
"I broke free. You damn brat, I'm going to kill you."
"Killer Bee, why did you faint? I still need to fight!"
The moment the genjutsu was released, Killer Bee just managed to open his eyes slightly before fainting.
Kai wasn't surprised by this.
Actually, as long as he had delayed a little longer, the Eight-Tails, Gyuki, would have broken free from Tsukuyomi, and Killer Bee would have escaped too.
After all, Kai had instantly activated Susanoo, Amaterasu, and Tsukuyomi.
He had to maintain Susanoo, which also consumed a lot of his chakra.
Moreover, Tsukuyomi mainly targeted Killer Bee.
"Kid, is Killer Bee alright?" A tried several methods but couldn't wake Killer Bee.
This was severe consciousness loss.
If Killer Bee hadn't been fully synchronized with the Eight-Tails, the Tailed Beast would have gone berserk the moment Killer Bee lost consciousness.
"He's just exhausted his mental energy. He'll recover after resting for a while," Kai raised the scroll in his hand, "Thanks. You can leave now."
"Kai, this is a good opportunity!" Inuzuka Haka was anxious, but Uzuki Ao stopped him with a look.
A sneered disdainfully, "A bunch of cowards. If it weren't for another genius emerging from the Uchiha clan, you would have already been killed by me."
"Damn Root. They didn't even gather such important intel."
In A's eyes, if they had known about Uchiha Kai, they wouldn't have suffered such heavy losses.
"But, kid, if you can't stay in Konoha, you can come to Kumogakure and find me. I'll always welcome you," A pulled out another scroll and threw it, "This is a scroll with intel about your betrayal. Hopefully, you can return to Konoha safely."
"Oh, right. They all say that Minato Namikaze is the most likely candidate to become the Fourth Hokage in Konoha, but I think you're also qualified, Blood-Red Asura."
After saying this, A helped Killer Bee and turned to leave.
"Next time we meet, I hope we'll be dueling as Kage. I'll break through your turtle shell."
As A left, the remaining five Cloud ninjas were reluctant.
They quickly followed him.
For a moment, the vast ruins were empty.
"We won! We actually stopped the Cloud ninjas' main force, including the AB duo!"
"Cut it out, you're talking nonsense. It was Kai who single-handedly killed them and repelled the AB duo. It was all his doing."
"I never thought that besides Shisui of the Body Flicker, there was another genius like Kai in the Uchiha clan. That Kirin attack just now made my blood run cold."
The Konoha ninjas in the cave were instantly overjoyed, their faces filled with relief.
They had already despaired when facing the Cloud ninjas' attack.
Especially after learning about Fū Yamanaka and Torune Aburame's betrayal, they thought it was a lost cause.
However, the outcome had completely shattered their perception.
Thinking back to the Kirin that instantly killed over a hundred people.
The unbreakable Susanoo.
The pitch-black, inextinguishable flames!
And the incredibly powerful genjutsu!
All of this was beyond the definition of a Jonin.
According to A, Kai was now a Kage candidate, also known as a semi-Kage.
"Did you guys hear that? A actually made a deal with Kai to fight again after they become Kage. And he even gave him a nickname, what was it? Blood-Red A-something?"
"It's Blood-Red Asura, you idiot!"
"Whew!"
Looking at the chattering Konoha ninjas, Kai breathed a sigh of relief. As his nine-tomoe Sharingan dissipated, the Susanoo behind him also vanished.
"Kai, are you injured? I'll heal you right away," Shizune rushed over, her face filled with anxiety.
"Silly girl, he couldn't even break through my defense. How could I be injured?" Kai said with a smile, gently rubbing Shizune's nose.
"She's just worried about you, Kai. Don't blame her," Uzuki Ao also walked over with a smile, but his face was filled with more admiration.
"Good kid. I never thought you were hiding so much. We're all saved thanks to you this time."
"As for the other things, we'll definitely support you when we return to Konoha."
In Konoha, the Uchiha clan's position was quite awkward.
They were always caught in the power struggles between Root, Anbu, and the Military Police Force.
In Uzuki Ao's understanding, Kai, as a genius, had been keeping a low profile, avoiding all these troublesome whirlpools.
Of course, Kai wouldn't point out that Uzuki Ao had been overthinking and making excuses for himself from the very beginning.
Glancing at Shizune, whose face was flushed, Kai opened another scroll.
It contained their defenses and the exact location of their scouts.
"Damn it, our defenses and scouts change every day. Only Fū Yamanaka and Torune Aburame would know this level of detail," Inuzuka Haka and the others also walked over quickly.
Seeing the intel on the scroll, their faces turned pale.
"If it weren't for Kai this time, we would have been killed for sure."
"When we return to Konoha, we must report this to the Hokage. Otherwise, how can we face the others?"
"Root is just too despicable. Even with Danzo, what can they do?"
"Kai, don't worry. We'll definitely support you."
Looking at the furious Konoha ninjas, Kai didn't say anything.
In this world, the strong ruled, and the weak were just puppets of the strong.
In Konoha, Danzo did indeed have a certain amount of power and could stir up trouble.
But Kai had the one-click to max level system. As long as he was given time, he would soon grow stronger.
He didn't care about Danzo, one of the behind-the-scenes bosses, let alone a mere Danzo.
If he was pushed too far, he wouldn't mind adding a few more lives to his hands.
"Alright, Kai is tired. Let him rest. Shizune, you go with him and see if he needs anything," Uzuki Ao stopped the others.
Issues involving Konoha's high-ranking officials and the Uchiha clan couldn't be discussed lightly.
At least, until Kai spoke, they shouldn't jump to conclusions.
Otherwise, if they upset Kai, it wouldn't be something that Uzuki Ao wanted to see.
