Chapter 90 - Chapter 90 Sharingan, Opening

One Ninja from Baiyang Squad, seeing the severe injury on Black Bull's chest from the Exploding Tag, jumped down from the ground, attempting to save Black Bull.

"Wait! Don't go near him! Be careful!"

Just as Bai Yang called out a warning, he saw his team member slit Black Bull's throat with a Kunai!

Blood gushed out, splattering onto Black Bull's chest, a mix of black and red.

Chaos, complete chaos.

Night Light shouted, "Everyone retreat! Maintain at least fifty meters between each other! Do not approach one another!"

Hearing the Squad Leader's command, everyone pulled back.

In the rainy night, only the sound of heavy rain hitting the leaves, the puddles, and the mud could be heard.

Five minutes passed, no anomalies.

Ten minutes passed, no anomalies.

Fifteen minutes passed, Night Light cautiously walked towards Purple Cat and began to treat her injuries.

Purple Cat did not attack Night Light; it seemed Kato Dan had already withdrawn.

He conversed with Purple Cat, and once he confirmed she was normal, he quietly discussed tactics with her.

Next time they encountered an enemy, they had to find a solution; they couldn't be so passive.

During their subsequent travel, Night Light demanded that everyone maintain a distance of twenty meters from each other, ensuring that Exploding Tags could not harm them.

At the same time, Night Light no longer headed southeast towards the Land of Fire, but instead went south, taking a longer route.

He feared Kato Dan would anticipate their escape direction and set up an ambush ahead.

After two hours of travel, with calm winds and waves, Night Light slightly relaxed; perhaps Kato Dan had lost patience and let them go.

Kato Dan, an Elite Jonin, couldn't possibly keep playing games with them.

The Squad found a densely wooded forest, and each person found a large tree to rest under.

Night Light stayed alone under a tree, its canopy blocking the rain, making the rain under the canopy much lighter.

He looked up at the low, oppressive black clouds, thinking to himself, if a lightning bolt struck now, would it kill him?

You shouldn't shelter under a large tree during a thunderstorm.

Useless knowledge from his previous life re-entered Night Light's mind.

Finding a cave was unrealistic; would they take turns going in?

A flash of bright light appeared in the clouds, followed by the rumble of thunder.

Night Light stood up, ready to order them to continue their journey.

If it came to it, they would detour from the south of the Land of Rain to the Land of Rivers, and enter the Land of Fire from there.

The second lightning bolt suddenly flared.

Night Light narrowed his eyes slightly.

No! Why was this lightning's light lasting so long?

An Anbu threw a flash bomb, aiming directly for Bai Yang!

Damn it, how was Kato Dan still haunting them, still following them?

Night Light formed hand seals, and used Body Flicker Technique to appear before Bai Yang.

Bai Yang was the Squad's scout Ninja; he absolutely could not be allowed to get into trouble.

Without Bai Yang, the Squad would be unable to move an inch in the dangerous Land of Rain.

Here, there were not only Rain Ninja, but also Stone Ninja, various rogue Ninja organizations from the Land of Rain, and even Uchiha Madara.

Flash bombs, smoke bombs, and the like, were all methods specifically used against ocular Ninjutsu users.

Under the strong light stimulation, Bai Yang probably couldn't even open his eyes.

Night Light instantly appeared in front of Bai Yang and kicked away the controlled Anbu.

He didn't want to kill; Leaf Monkey and Black Bull were already dead, their deaths utterly meaningless.

Just then, a whooshing sound suddenly came from behind him.

Damn it!

Could it be that even Bai Yang, a bloodline limit Ninja with ocular Ninjutsu, couldn't resist Kato Dan's forbidden Jutsu?

Bai Yang's Taijutsu was much stronger than the other team members, and he was much faster.

Night Light was prepared, so he immediately moved to the side, turning and dodging at the same time.

However, Bai Yang still managed to touch Night Light.

Night Light's left shoulder was slapped.

He felt his left arm lose sensation, as if a pressure point had been struck.

Bai Yang's Gentle Fist continuously struck Night Light.

His movements weren't as fluid as Bai Yang's usual, but they still possessed seventy to eighty percent of his strength.

He hadn't expected Kato Dan to have such a deep understanding of the Hyuga Clan; after controlling a Hyuga Clan member, he could not only strike pressure points but also use such high-level Gentle Fist.

With a slight thought, Night Light understood: the Hyuga Clan was often assigned to protect Kato Dan, so Kato Dan was extremely familiar with them.

Night Light only used his right arm to counter Bai Yang.

While dodging, Night Light quickly shouted, "Purple Cat! Help me!"

Purple Cat, not far away, quickly used Mind Body Switch Technique on Bai Yang.

Just then, Bai Yang's body paused, and he shouted, "Captain! I'm fine! Purple Cat is being controlled by the enemy!"

Bai Yang suddenly lunged forward, blocking between Night Light and Purple Cat, preventing the Fox Squad Captain from being controlled by Purple Cat.

Seeing Bai Yang say he was back to normal, Purple Cat's Mind Body Switch Technique unconsciously slowed down.

However, Bai Yang suddenly erupted, violently swinging his Kunai, slashing towards Night Light's throat!

Night Light slightly turned his head to the left, staring at the rapidly approaching Kunai.

The Kunai was too fast.

Night Light saw the sharp blade of the Kunai cut through raindrops, one by one.

Each raindrop burst in the air, turning into tiny droplets.

In the nick of time, Night Light instinctively charged forward, colliding into Bai Yang's embrace.

Bai Yang's Kunai pierced Night Light's back of the neck.

The tip of the Kunai's blade penetrated at least half a centimeter into Night Light's neck flesh.

"Ugh!"

Bai Yang cried out in pain as the Squad Leader's Kunai pierced his abdomen.

All of this happened in a flash, everything was an instinctive action.

If Bai Yang had been a little faster, Night Light's neck would have been pierced.

Night Light looked down and saw his Kunai had pierced Bai Yang's lung, and the four-edged surface of the Kunai had also fractured Bai Yang's ribs.

Kato Dan, in the final instant, controlled Bai Yang to crash forward, turning a serious injury into a fatal one...

Ignoring his own injury, Bai Yang raised his hand and pointed north: "Squad Leader... I sensed it, in that direction... Squad Leader... I'm sorry..."

Bai Yang was dying.

In a cave over twenty kilometers away, Kato Dan instantly woke up. What a troublesome Squad; he had thought he could control an Anbu Byakugan Ninja.

Bai Yang had followed Night Light for so long; to Night Light, he was the most important person in the Squad after Purple Cat.

Night Light mechanically performed Anbu missions every day. The people he was most familiar with in Anbu were Purple Cat and Bai Yang.

Bai Yang, like other Hyuga branch family members, was very gentle.

He died here before he could resolve the suffering of the Caged Bird, and he was killed by Night Light's own hand.

After Night Light transmigrated, his underlying nature was emotionless.

Because he always felt that everyone here was a stranger.

This world gave him a strong sense of unfamiliarity.

Returning to the previous full moon night each month made him feel that everything was inconsequential.

If someone died, they died; if someone was killed, they were killed.

This month, Night Light killed Bai Yang. He couldn't bring Bai Yang back to the past, couldn't save Bai Yang.

At this moment, his guilt reached its peak.

Rainwater flowed into Night Light's eyes.

He felt his eyes were unusually sore.

A strong Chakra emerged from his brain, rushing directly into his eyes along the optic nerves.

Night Light's eyes suddenly turned blood-red, and his black pupils constricted into a single tomoe, rapidly rotating in his eyes.

Sharingan, awakened!

This cursed bloodline, each tomoe activated by the death of someone close.

A Sharingan of average to high talent wouldn't awaken from the death of someone as close as Purple Cat, but rather from someone who had accompanied him for a long time, like Bai Yang, dying before him.

Uchiha with sufficient talent could awaken their Sharingan if their pet cat died.

That's why the Uchiha Clan loved to keep cats, and had summoning animals like the Cat Sage. Powerful Uchiha ancestors believed that keeping a cat at home made it easier to awaken the Sharingan.

Uchiha with insufficient talent couldn't awaken their eyes even if they killed everyone in their family tree.

Being an enemy of the Uchiha was dangerous; being a friend of the Uchiha was even more dangerous.

Bai Yang leaned close to Night Light's ear and said, "Squad Leader... I reported to Captain Huang Quan, an anomaly in your Chakra occurred once during the Nine-Tailed Fox's attack..."

Night Light's heart trembled. Was Captain Huang Quan starting to suspect him?

Looking at Bai Yang again, through the eye holes of his mask, his white pupils had dispersed, like expired, clumpy, low-quality milk.

Night Light stood up.

Bai Yang was dead; he had to protect Purple Cat and the others.
