Being forced to separate from Homusubi, Suijin was under the siege of multiple Uchiha at the sa ti and didn't have ti to take care of any thought then to defend himself.
After ducking down to avoid a heavy punch from the burly Uchiha, Suijin turned around and punched him heavily in the ribs, at the sa ti, kicked his left knee to trip the balance of the other party, with the Uchiha almost losing his balance, Suijin's ice-covered hand was rushing towards opponent's throat.
Whiiiish…
But before he could pierce through, the sound of kunai cutting through wind sounded and Suijin had to lean back to safely avoid the attack.
Although Suijin leaned back he was able to see the thin tal wire tied to the Kunai.
Imdiately afterward, the tal wire was slamd backward, entangled the burly Uchiha restrained by Suijin, and pulled him out of the direct attack range.
"Tch!" – Annoyed for being letting the prey escape, Suijin clicked his tongue and printed the hand seals and shouted, "Ice Release: Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals!"
Accompanied by the freezing sound, the crystal clear ice mirrors started appearing on the battlefield one after another.
This ti, Suijin used the conventional technique, so the ice mirrors appeared in a hemispherical shape, the sheer number of mirrors was so high that it covered a large part of the battlefield inside.
Every Ice Mirror is an extension of his Chakra; therefore, he was able to sense everything within the territory, giving a subtle yet not so similar effect as that of the Byakugan perception.
While Suijin was able to effectively able to cope up with the situation quite well, Homusubi was having a hard ti, the teachings he has been indoctrinated with from his childhood are restraining him from lifting his blade against fellow villagers and clansn, so when fighting against the fellow villagers, he was only able to use about thirty to forty percent of his strength, and that too only for parrying and dodging.
In this regard, both Itachi and Shinichi are undoubtedly much better and would never let their teaching affect their combat power.
But then again, they are different people with different ideologies.
The sudden appearance of so many ice mirrors imdiately attracted the attention of the mbers of the Konoha Police Force.
One of the Uchiha elite who has previously dealt with such a Jutsu imdiately shouted out the warning, "Everyone, be careful, this ice Jutsu is very troubleso!"
One of the shinobi who is particularly proficient in Fire Release said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of these mirrors!"
Said, and in an instant, he printed his hand seals and released a burst of flas that were as hot as boiling lava.
Boom…
Out ca the explosive sound when the flas collided with the ice mirrors but much to the surprise of many there was not even a tiny water droplet on the ice mirror, indicating that neither the heat was enough nor was the impact enough to break the ice mirror.
The main reason for this is that the surrounding ice was constantly lowering the temperature of the forest, therefore, the fire style Jutsu was not up to the task.
"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Fla Bullet!"
"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"
Realizing that just Fire Style isn't going to work considering the cold surroundings, two Uchiha shinobi combined together and used a combination technique of Fire and wind to fla the fire.
With the added boost from the Wind Style Jutsu, the Fire Dragon was really gigantic and fiercely pounced on the ice mirrors, easily smashing through them in one fell swoop.
Just when the Uchiha elites were trying to break free of the ice mirrors siege, Suijin hiding inside them was not idle.
He traveled from one mirror to the other like a ghost and swopped out knocking out one individual after another.
It is said that the speed of traveling from one mirror to the other is instantaneous, or better yet, light speed, which is obviously not true otherwise the Sharingan wouldn't able to capture the movent, but even if his movents were being captured by the Sharingan, Suijin was still able to knock out the mbers of the police force one after another. Although he had to endure so injuries, nothing too serious
At this ti, Uchiha Fugaku, who hasn't yet moved from his position and was standing outside the Demonic Ice Mirrors formation frowned.
The muffled sound of people falling one after another, made him realize the seriousness, now he even started to doubt that the two bounty-nin could escape from Sandai-sama, perhaps not just because of luck.
Finally decided to take action, Fugaku quickly printed the hand seals and shouted,
"Fire Release: Fireball Technique!"
Boom…
A raging fla ball pierced through the sky, engulfing the ice mirror completely, the heat of the fla was so high that it almost lted the entire top in a mont.
Whoosh…
As soon as a gap appeared in the formation, the figure flickered and firmly landed on the ground.
With Fugaku's arrival, the Uchiha gathered around the patriarch, supporting each other, and their heads down due to the embarrassnt of not being able to deal with just two bounty-nin even with such an overwhelming advantage of numbers.
Fugaku didn't look away just said indifferently, "Retreat, I will deal with the two of them!"
The Shinobi no longer hand their previous arrogance and stepped back one after another leaving room for the patriarch.
Fugaku looked at the two bounty-nin on the opposite side and said in a deep voice, "I seem to have underestimated the two of you, but this is as far as you go…"
Suijin smiled softly, "I…" – he was about to say sothing…
However, before he realized the surrounding beca black and white, everything disappeared, and even the Demonic Mirror Formation that was an extension of his perception was cut off.
All he could see was just a combination of black and white.
'Genjutsu!?' – was his only thought.
There are very few tis when Suijin had to deal with Genjutsu, the first was a simple demonstration by the teacher in the ninja academy, the second was by Genjutsu Pill used by Orochimaru to give him certain experience.
Other than these tis, nobody bothered to use Genjutsu to deal with small-ti chunin. Later he awakened the Tenseigan, therefore, ordinary Genjutsu beca aningless.
Therefore, Suijin doesn't have much experience in dealing with complex Genjutsu. The mont Suijin understood that he has been hit by Genjutsu the first thing to do was cut off his thinking, this could be any type of Genjutsu, and since Suijin didn't know its chanism, therefore, it was best to not think anything it might give away so information he doesn't want to leak.
And Suijin isn't much worried, there is also Homusubi with him who is actually Uchiha Shisui, and who is Uchiha Shisui?
Uchiha Shisui is soone who awakened Kotoamatsukami, and his Genjutsu shouldn't be any inferior to Uchiha Fugaku and is unlikely to be subdued to Fugaku with just a Genjutsu.
For that reason, Suijin analyzed the Genjutsu spread before him with great interest, 'Is it possible that it is a Mangekyou Sharingan ability of Uchiha Fugaku?'
Even if he is actually using a Water Clone Body, Kuroto's spiritual strength that has gone through Tenseigan awakening is still very high, not sothing that would easily be affected by Genjutsu, and since Fugaku could take him in a Genjutsu with just a glance, even before Suijin could realize, must an that what he used isn't an ordinary Genjutsu.
While Suijin was mulling over, a purple Chakra invaded the black and white world from the sky.
"Hmm, this…?" – To Suijin's surprise, the purple chakra gathered more and more, slowly taking the form of a figure, it turned back and faced Suijin
"You are!" – Suijin was really surprised again as he knew what it was.
