Black Naruto: Shadow Moon

The Shadow Moon team finally arrived at the village where the mission target was located.

Hatake Sakumo led Kagezuki, Yamanaka Chinatsu and Hinata Ayane to hide in a dense forest outside the village, observing the situation in the village from a high place.

There were about dozens of bandits scattered in various corners of the village. They were dressed in messy clothes and held various weapons. They did not look very strong, but they were numerous and seemed very violent.

Sakumo frowned slightly and observed carefully for a while, confirming that these bandits did not have the aura of ninjas, and most of them were ordinary villains. He secretly decided in his heart to take this opportunity to train the combat capabilities of the Shadow Moon Team and let them deal with this group of bandits on their own.

"Yingyue, these bandits are not very strong, but there are a lot of them." Shumao said softly to Yingyue, "I decided not to take action. You three can handle it on your own. Plan your tactics well and show your teamwork."

Uchiha Yingyue nodded to show his understanding. Although he felt a little nervous, he was more expectant. This was their team's first actual combat, and it was also Yingyue's first time facing a real enemy. Those bandits not only looted the village, but also cruelly abused the villagers. Their crimes were extremely heinous.

With Sakumo's tacit approval, Shadow Moon quickly formulated a strategy.

Uchiha Yingyue took into consideration that the bandits were numerous and a direct frontal attack might put his teammates in danger, so Yingyue decided to adopt a strategy of dispersing the enemy.

"Chinatsu, you can use your Heart Turn Technique to control the outermost bandits first, and try to make them attack each other to create chaos." Yingyue instructed, "Ayane, you use your Byakugan to observe the surrounding environment and find the best attack route. At the same time, you are responsible for protecting Chinatsu's safety."

Chinatsu and Ayane nodded in agreement, both of them understanding that Shadow Moon's tactics were designed to minimize risk while gradually weakening the enemy's strength.

"I will launch a surprise attack from a high position, first use Fire Style to attack the enemy's core part, and then quickly enter the battlefield, using Taijutsu and Wood Style to eliminate the remaining enemies." Yingyue continued, with a hint of calm murderous intent in his eyes.

After the plan was finalized, Team Shadow Moon quickly split up, with Chinatsu lurking at the outermost edge, ready to perform the Heart Turn Technique, while Ayane used her Byakugan to detect the enemy's movements.

Uchiha Yingyue chose a commanding position and prepared to launch his first fatal attack.

As Chinatsu's Heart-Turning Technique successfully controlled several bandits, chaotic fighting suddenly broke out among the bandits, and Yingyue took decisive action while the bandits were in panic.

Yingyue quickly formed hand seals and used a powerful Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique to blast towards the core area of ​​the bandits. The blazing flames instantly engulfed several bandits, and screams were heard.

Immediately afterwards, Yingyue used the Wood Release: Wood Clone Technique to create multiple clones and attacked the bandits from different directions.

However, when Yingyue stabbed a bandit's chest with the kunai in his hand for the first time and felt the cold recoil, Yingyue's heart trembled suddenly, blood splattered on Yingyue's face, the bandit let out a last shrill scream, and Yingyue's arm trembled slightly because of the violent impact.

This was the first time Yingyue killed someone with her own hands.

Although Yingyue knew that these bandits were extremely evil and deserved to die, as a soul that traveled through time from a peaceful era, such killings still brought a huge moral shock to Yingyue.

A complex emotion surged in Yingyue's heart. She felt nauseous and dizzy, but then she forced herself to calm down.

Yingyue knew that this was an unavoidable reality in the ninja world, and he had to adapt to and overcome this psychological barrier as quickly as possible.

"This is for the villagers... and also for my teammates." Yingyue said silently in her heart, constantly adjusting her emotions.

Just as Yingyue was forcibly suppressing the fluctuations in his heart, Yingyue felt a sudden sharp pain in the Sharingan in his eyes, and countless blurry images seemed to appear in his vision. Then, he felt his pupil power begin to fluctuate violently. The two-magatama Sharingan, which was almost full, finally broke through at this moment and evolved into a three-magatama Sharingan.

With the awakening of the Three-Magneto Sharingan, Yingyue's vision, reaction speed and dynamic insight were instantly elevated to a higher level. The movements of those bandits became unusually slow and clear in his eyes. He was able to accurately predict the movements of each enemy and make the best response.

Yingyue clenched the kunai in his hand and re-entered the battle. Yingyue's movements became faster and more precise, as if he had activated some extraordinary fighting instinct, and every attack hit the enemy's vital points.

At this time, the ability of the Ninja World Dance King was also exerted to the extreme. Shadow Moon was like a black lightning, quickly shuttling through the group of bandits. Wherever he passed, the bandits fell down one after another.

At the same time, Ayane and Chinatsu were cooperating tacitly beside them.

Ayane uses her Byakugan to accurately guide Kagezuki, helping him avoid possible traps and ambushes, while Chinatsu uses the Heart Transmigration Technique to disrupt and weaken the enemy's combat effectiveness.

Finally, with the help of his teammates, Yingyue successfully wiped out all the bandits.

On the bloody battlefield, the bodies of the bandits were lying on the ground in all directions, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

After the battle, Uchiha Yingyue and his teammates quickly rescued the trapped villagers. The villagers had been imprisoned by the bandits for a long time, and they were all ragged and haggard.

When they saw the Shadow Moon Squad appear, their eyes were filled with gratitude and hope.

"Thank you, Konoha's ninjas!" an elderly villager said excitedly, "You saved the lives of our entire village!"

Uchiha Yingyue smiled slightly and nodded, but Yingyue's heart was still replaying the battle just now. Although he successfully wiped out all the bandits and protected the villagers, he felt a heaviness in his heart that he had never felt before.

This is the first time that Yingyue really faces the cruel reality of the ninja world - killing, blood,

Although Yingyue understands that this is the norm in the world of ninja, Yingyue still needs time to adapt and adjust his mentality.

On the way back, Hatake Sakumo noticed Yingyue's mood swings.

He walked to Yingyue and whispered, "Yingyue, today is your first time facing killing. Does it feel uncomfortable?"

Yingyue nodded, with a complicated look in his eyes: "Yes, Mr. Sakumo... I know these bandits deserved their punishment, but when I ended their lives with my own hands, I still felt an indescribable shock."

Sakumo patted Yingyue's shoulder, his tone full of understanding: "This is the world of ninja. Every ninja will have similar feelings when facing killing for the first time, but this does not mean that you have lost your humanity. On the contrary, it proves that you still retain precious kindness. The important thing is that you must learn to find a balance in this process."

Uchiha Yingyue took a deep breath and nodded to show his understanding.

As a ninja, Shadow Moon must learn how to survive in this cruel world while maintaining his inner kindness and justice.

"I understand, Mr. Sakumo." Yingyue's eyes gradually became firm.
