"Unlike the other two scenarios, this seems like a cabin that actually existed in the past?"
After gently placing the unconscious Kaguya on the bed, Uchiha Kage finally had time to ponder this place, looking at her exquisitely beautiful face, a few crumbs still clinging to the corners of her mouth.
According to what Kaguya had said, this bamboo cabin was her former residence. After she left this place, the outside world remained the same as before, with the same mountains and lakes.
She even occasionally heard news from nearby villagers about the Sage of Six Paths recently establishing the Ninja Creed.
Truly marvelous.
"And in her eyes, I absorbed her power and stole her chastity, essentially taking everything from her."
Uchiha Kage wiped away the impurities on Kaguya's body with a towel, then helped tuck her into the quilt.
"No wonder she's so attached to me now, but..."
It seems that this mysterious 'Dream Space' absorbed her power, while my physical strength seems to be linked to the Action Points consumed to enter the scenarios.
It was two points before, then three, and now it's four. With each additional Action Point, my physical strength and energy increase exponentially.
No wonder Kaguya was complaining.
The reason for the increase in points is most likely due to the increase in my Chakra and the completion of instance missions.
"So, the more instances I clear, the more Ninja Fragments I collect, the more potent I get, huh? Looks like the Uchiha clan is depending on me."

"Itachi-san, it seems we're destined to encounter Konoha Ninja."
This was a relatively prosperous ordinary village.
Uchiha Itachi and Hoshigaki Kisame, who were passing through on their journey, were taking a break at a dango shop.
Just as their order of dango was brought to them, they noticed a commotion coming from the street outside—
Three ninja from Kumogakure, wearing their village's headbands, were chasing after a female ninja with the Byakugan.
They were then cleanly defeated and captured alive by Konoha Ninja lying in ambush.
"It's her..."
In the chaos, Uchiha Itachi saw a familiar female ninja.
Kurenai? What's she doing here?
And that guy...
At the same time as he saw Yuhi Kurenai, Uchiha Itachi also noticed the young man wearing a top with the Uchiha clan crest printed on it standing beside her.
Looking at the familiar clan crest, Uchiha Itachi seemed to be transported back to the night of the Uchiha clan massacre.
"Someone you know?"
Hoshigaki Kisame became interested after hearing Uchiha Itachi's words.
"A senior from the village."
Now that they had met face-to-face, Uchiha Itachi knew that he could no longer turn a blind eye.
However, is it only Yuhi Kurenai here?
Then it will be difficult to let them go later...
"What a coincidence!"
Crushing the dango in his hand, Kisame excitedly grabbed his Samehada and charged out of the dango shop.
----
Bang!
The shop window shattered.
Hoshigaki Kisame smashed through the shop's window with his body, rushing towards the Konoha Ninja outside.
On the other side, Yuhi Kurenai, who had just finished dealing with the Kumogakure Ninja, had already sensed the killing intent, even before she could clearly see the person coming.
Therefore, she had prepared a kunai in her hand before the opponent attacked.
Clang!
The bandaged great sword was barely blocked by the kunai in Yuhi Kurenai's hand.
Such great strength...
The arm holding the kunai instantly bent.
Upon initial contact, Yuhi Kurenai felt the pressure.
"His sword is strange, try to keep your distance, Teacher!"
That's right, the Konoha Ninja who had set up a trap in the village to ambush the Kumogakure Ninja were naturally Uchiha Kage and his group.
On their way back to the village, they had become a bit too relaxed, causing Hinata, who was in charge of scouting ahead, to be accidentally targeted by a team of Kumogakure Ninja who were on some mission.
Although these Kumogakure Ninja weren't particularly strong, they stubbornly refused to give up on Hinata, who possessed the Byakugan, and even chased her into the Land of Fire without caring.
Thus, Uchiha Kage had no choice but to set up a trap, and was forced to eliminate these annoying Kumogakure Ninja like flies.
However, what Uchiha Kage hadn't expected at all was...
He and Shino had just finished setting up the trap when his Byakugan detected Uchiha Itachi and Hoshigaki Kisame entering the village.
At this time, Hinata had already been used as bait to lure the Kumogakure Ninja, and Yuhi Kurenai was protecting her.
Therefore, Uchiha Kage was unable to warn them in advance about the arrival of these uninvited guests, Uchiha Itachi and Hoshigaki Kisame.
"Mm."
Although she didn't know where Uchiha Kage got his information from, Yuhi Kurenai still nimbly dodged Hoshigaki Kisame's great sword.
She didn't choose to fight head-on again.
However, he doesn't seem to be a Kumogakure Ninja?
Yuhi Kurenai had assumed that reinforcements had arrived from Kumogakure, but she saw that the person coming was wearing a Kirigakure Headband.
To be precise, the opponent was a rogue ninja from Kirigakure.
Because there was a line across the headband.
"Itachi-san, there seems to be another Uchiha here. Could he be your younger brother?"
Hoshigaki Kisame didn't pay attention to Yuhi Kurenai's retreat, but instead focused on the Uchiha youth standing next to Yuhi Kurenai.
"No, he's just a clan member who survived by chance."
Step by step, Uchiha Itachi, who had walked out of the dango shop, expressionlessly reached out his hands from the Akatsuki cloak and took off his traveling hat.
"Uchiha... Itachi!?"
The rogue ninja from Kirigakure only made Yuhi Kurenai slightly startled, but when she saw Uchiha Itachi's figure, Yuhi Kurenai panicked a little.
She first looked at Uchiha Itachi in front of her with suspicion several times, and then quickly turned back to look at Uchiha Kage beside her with worry.
Crap, after seeing the enemy who massacred the clan, Kage wouldn't... do something stupid like trying to fight him, would he?
"Uchiha Itachi?"
Aburame Shino, who was standing on the other side binding the three Kumogakure Ninja, also stared back and forth between Uchiha Kage and Uchiha Itachi's faces in surprise.
"Kage-san..."
Hinata, who was worried about Uchiha Kage, had already taken out a kunai and stood beside him.
"Long time no see, Kurenai-senpai."
Uchiha Itachi greeted Yuhi Kurenai politely.
Even though he had already decided their fate.
Compared to the lives of a Jonin and three Genin, ensuring the value of his infiltration into the Akatsuki was the most important thing.
Everything is for the village, I'm sorry, Kurenai-senpai.
"You three! Get out of here immediately! Remember to run back to the village separately, and don't look back! That's an order!"
It really is Uchiha Itachi, and there is also a powerful rogue ninja next to him.
Such a despairing situation...
Yuhi Kurenai only hoped that she could do her best to hold them back for a while, so that her disciples would have a chance to escape.
"Hinata, especially you, hurry up!"
The Hyuga Head Family's Byakugan cannot fall into the hands of outsiders, otherwise she would be a sinner of Konoha.
"Teacher, although the enemy is very strong, if we run away directly, our chances of survival will be very low. It's better to fight here."
Aburame Shino judged the situation in front of him, and for both emotional and rational reasons, he didn't want to abandon his teacher and run away now.
"I..."
Although she was so scared that her hand holding the kunai was trembling slightly.
But Hinata felt that even if she died, she couldn't abandon Uchiha Kage and her teacher.
"I want to fight alongside Kage-san... and Teacher!"
"It's rude to run off without even saying hello, after running into acquaintances."
Hoshigaki Kisame waved his Samehada, blocking Uchiha Kage's path with a curious expression.
He didn't care much about the Byakugan, but the Uchiha...
He didn't expect that besides Itachi's younger brother, there would be another Uchiha clan Little Kid who survived?
"Itachi-san, what's the name of this Little Kid?"
"Shouldn't you introduce yourself before asking for someone else's name?"
The Uchiha Itachi and Hoshigaki Kisame in front of him both had very strong killing intent, and both of them seemed to be targeting him.
There was no way to dodge, and Uchiha Kage also wanted to see what he could do if he exerted all of his current strength.
"Sorry, sorry, I was too excited and forgot."
Hoshigaki Kisame was a little surprised by the Uchiha Little Kid's courage.
Generally, Genin would be so frightened that they couldn't move after seeing his killing intent, but the Uchiha Little Kid in front of him was able to talk to him calmly without changing his expression.
I can only say, as expected of a ninja of the Uchiha clan.
"My name is Hoshigaki Kisame, I look forward to your guidance in the future."
"Uchiha Kage, I heard that shark meat is very unappetizing."
Whether it was Uchiha Itachi or Hoshigaki Kisame, they were both very troublesome ninja.
Uchiha Kage had to be on high alert.
"Is that so? But sharks like to eat people."
Withdrawing the Samehada that was blocking in front of Uchiha Kage, Hoshigaki Kisame slightly took the Uchiha clan Little Kid who survived seriously.
"Hoshigaki Kisame? I heard that the guy who assassinated the Daimyo of the Land of Water and killed his Kirigakure comrades, his name seems to be this."
Yuhi Kurenai remembered that she had seen the other party's information on the ninja roster.
One of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist.
That great sword is one of the seven unique Ninja Swords of Kirigakure, right?
No wonder it exudes an ominous Chakra.
And like Uchiha Itachi, this guy is also an S-class rogue ninja.
"What is the purpose of ninja like you appearing on Border of Land of Fire?"
Since it seemed possible to communicate, Yuhi Kurenai decided to try to get some information.
As for whether she would be able to leave here alive later, she hadn't thought that far, but continued to make eye contact with her disciples to let them leave first while taking the opportunity to talk.
But neither Uchiha Kage, nor Hinata, nor Shino chose to escape.
This made her feel both touched and angry in her heart.
Being a double agent, Uchiha Itachi wasn't concerned about keeping Akatsuki's secrets.
"However, in order not to alert the enemy, we can only kill all of you here."
"The target is Konoha?"
Yuhi Kurenai was taken aback by this answer, but what surprised her even more was Uchiha Itachi's extremely fast Hand Seals.
Crap, I can't see his Hand Seals at all...
What type of Ninjutsu will it be?
"Get out of here!"
Although he didn't activate his Sharingan, Uchiha Kage still saw Uchiha Itachi's intention with his Byakugan's perspective on Chakra.
So much Chakra, it must be a large-scale Ninjutsu!
----
Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!
Seeming to recognize that the firelight he had encountered on the road that day was from the Uchiha Kage in front of him, Uchiha Itachi also used the same Ninjutsu.
In an instant, the entire wide street was filled with orange flames.
"It's even larger than the scale Kage used that day!"
Looking at the raging flames below that turned the street into a pitch-black expanse, Yuhi Kurenai, who had jumped onto the roof with her three disciples, couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.
"It's not over yet, watch out behind you!"
Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!
Great Dragon Fire Technique!
Uchiha Itachi's rapid Hand Seals allowed him to release two types of Ninjutsu at the same time after releasing the Great Fire Annihilation.
Moreover, it was a Wind and Fire Release that could enhance each other's power.
Boom!
The Great Dragon Fire Technique shattered the roof that everyone was standing on, and the subsequent Wind Release turned the tiles in front of them into flying feathers all over the sky.
"Hinata!"
Hinata, who had nowhere to stand, was quickly blown away by the strong wind stirred up by the Wind Release.
"Where are you looking?"
Shino, who had just wanted to support Hinata, also noticed a bandaged great sword above his head.
He quickly dodged to the side, but—
The spikes that protruded from the bandages of the great sword still scratched his chest, and shaved off the Chakra he had just accumulated on his body to cultivate his bugs.
"Wh-What's going on!?"
Shino, who was planning to counterattack with bugs, couldn't believe that the Chakra in his body would be emptied in an instant.
Bang!
He himself was kicked off the roof by the opponent's swift kick.
Then he crashed heavily into a thick wall.
"Although they are just Genin, those bugs are still quite annoying."
Kisame shook the black bugs that had died because their Chakra had been drained from his Samehada great sword with some disgust.
"Shino..."
Looking at her disciple who had fallen to the ground and whose life or death was unknown, Yuhi Kurenai, who had just dodged Uchiha Itachi's Ninjutsu combination, could only bite the bullet and attack.
In any case, she must die before her disciples!
However, her specialty was Illusionary Technique, but now she had to use Body Art to fight Hoshigaki Kisame head-on, and soon she fell into a disadvantage.
Not to mention there was still Uchiha Itachi watching covetously from the side.
"It seems like it's about to end."
Without even needing to release the complete Samehada, Hoshigaki Kisame had already knocked Yuhi Kurenai off the roof as well.
I thought the Jonin of Konoha Village would have some strength, but I didn't expect her to be so unbearable...
To be honest, he was a little bored.
"End? That's not necessarily true."
Rasengan!
Suddenly bursting out of the roof of the ruined house, Uchiha Kage, carrying a blue Rasengan, suddenly appeared under Kisame's feet.
After saving Hinata who was blown away by the Wind Release, he had been lurking nearby.
Now he finally found an opportunity.
"This Ninjutsu?"
Uchiha Itachi, who was temporarily watching as a spectator on the other side of the roof, recognized the Ninjutsu in Uchiha Kage's hand.
The guy who had accidentally appeared in the Uchiha Clan Grounds back then... is indeed not an ordinary person.
"That's really surprising, I thought you ran away."
Kisame instinctively placed his Samehada in front of him, preparing to withstand the Rasengan in Uchiha Kage's hand.
"But with just this kind of Ninjutsu... um!?"
"..."
Uchiha Itachi, who was standing not far away, subconsciously wanted to remind Kisame, but he held back. Itachi wanted to gauge the boy's strength.
Boom!
The blue Rasengan slammed into Samehada's blade, and a violent, rotating force instantly tore through the great sword, striking Hoshigaki Kisame directly.
Pfft!
Hoshigaki Kisame, who was sent flying by this rotating stream of air, couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
