Chapter 584 - Chapter 583: Disruption  

Bang! Bang! Bang! 

Seimei hovered quietly in the air, watching as one fireball after another crashed into the water barrier below, creating dull, echoing sounds. 

Finally, after several moments, Konoha's attack formation ceased. 

Below, four elite Mist Village special jonin held their ground for a bit longer. But when they could no longer maintain the ninjutsu barrier, they released it. 

Inside the barrier, the faces of the Mist ninja revealed expressions of relief, as if they had narrowly escaped death. 

However, at that very moment, Seimei moved. 

He had been closely observing the actions of the four Mist special jonin, waiting for the barrier to be lifted. Now that it was gone, it was time for him to act. 

Without hesitation, Seimei seized the fleeting opportunity. With a flap of his wings, he suddenly accelerated, hurtling toward the Flying Fish Town below. 

"Watch out!" 

As it turned out, no matter how harmless Seimei tried to appear, the Mist ninja couldn't afford to ignore his presence. Almost the instant he approached, a Mist jonin shouted a warning. 

Immediately afterward, dozens of shuriken and kunai flew at him, dense and fast, like a torrential downpour. 

Seimei didn't dodge. Instead, he activated the Earth Release: Hardening Technique and Chakra Cloak, covering his entire body. 

Simultaneously, he focused his Sharingan, locking onto the incoming kunai and shuriken. Then, with a swift movement of his wings, he weaved through the attacks. 

He moved gracefully, like a butterfly dancing among flowers, avoiding all dangers as he closed in on the Mist ninja below. 

Boom! Boom! Boom! 

Explosions erupted violently. 

In the sky, some of the kunai held explosive tags. They detonated, sending shockwaves toward Seimei. Yet, his Chakra Cloak easily deflected the blasts. 

Of course, not all attacks were blocked by the Chakra Cloak. Seimei had to endure the kunai and shuriken propelled by the explosions himself. 

Fortunately, his mastery of the Earth Release: Hardening Technique was flawless. 

The kunai and shuriken struck his hardened skin, causing no harm—merely leaving faint, almost imperceptible marks on the surface. 

Though it sounded like a lot, all of this happened in an instant. 

Dodging the wave of attacks, Seimei successfully closed in on Flying Fish Town. 

Without hesitation, he formed hand seals, channeling his chakra to unleash the Uchiha clan's signature technique—Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique! 

Placing his right hand near his mouth, Seimei exhaled a stream of fire. 

The flame expanded rapidly, forming a fireball in front of him. Initially small, the fireball swelled as Seimei poured more chakra into it. 

One meter, two meters, five meters, ten meters… 

In the blink of an eye, the fireball reached a massive thirty-meter diameter. Its intense heat and light dried the throats of the Mist ninja in the town below, even from a considerable distance. 

Large beads of sweat rolled down their foreheads, streaming down their faces before falling to the ground and evaporating instantly. 

"Stop it!" 

Suddenly, a Mist jonin's stern voice jolted the others from their shock. 

Hearing the shout, Seimei stopped channeling chakra into the fireball. 

At its current size, the fireball was already at the limit of what he could control. If it grew any larger, he risked injuring himself. 

With a decisive shout, Seimei commanded, "Go!" 

In the next moment, he directed the massive fireball to descend like a meteor toward the Mist ninja below. 

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!" 

"Water Release: Water Formation Pillar!" 

"Water Release: Wild Water Wave!" 

Instantly, a dozen water techniques were unleashed by the Mist ninja below, all aimed at the descending fireball. 

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle… 

The clash between fire and water created an ear-piercing hiss. 

Thick white steam rose, blanketing the battlefield in a dense fog. 

The fireball's descent slowed as more Mist ninja joined in with additional techniques. 

Though Seimei's Great Fireball was formidable, it couldn't withstand the combined assault of dozens of water techniques. 

Eventually, after a brief standoff, the fireball shattered with a loud explosion, scattering flames across the area. 

The Mist ninja scrambled to dodge the falling embers. 

Amid the chaos, Seimei launched his second wave of attacks. He hurled a single shuriken, then formed hand seals to use the Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique. 

In an instant, the lone shuriken multiplied into hundreds, raining down on the Mist ninja below. 

Hidden within the dense steam, Seimei left the Mist ninja with little time to react. 

While the higher-ranked ninja managed to evade, the less experienced ones weren't so lucky. Some were struck fatally, while others sustained varying degrees of injuries. 

But it wasn't over. 

As soon as the first wave of shuriken landed, Seimei threw another shuriken, repeating the familiar process. Once again, countless shuriken rained down on the Mist ninja. 

Forced to dodge and block, the Mist ninja had little time to regroup. 

However, by the second wave, the Mist ninja had realized Seimei's strategy. Observing his use of the steam as cover, one of them quickly used a Wind Release technique to disperse the fog around him. 

Seimei's figure was exposed once more. 

But he showed no sign of frustration or regret. 

After all, his goal had already been achieved. 

Although his three waves of attacks had lasted only a short time and inflicted limited damage, they successfully disrupted the Mist ninja's formation. 

Meanwhile, Konoha's forces, waiting just outside the town, had begun their advance. The battle was imminent, leaving the Mist ninja no time to reorganize. 

This gave Konoha a significant advantage in breaking through the Mist's defenses. 

And that was exactly what Seimei had intended. 

Clang! Bang! Boom! 

Sounds of intense explosions and clashes filled the air as Konoha's forces charged in, engaging the Mist ninja in combat. 

Seeing this, Seimei didn't linger. With a flap of his wings, he flew toward the other battlefields. 

Though his attacks had seemed wide-reaching, they had only targeted the western gate of the town. The other areas remained unaffected. 

He needed to act quickly.
