## Chapter 1610: Tekka Uchiha's Confusion and Discovery!
This was a village located northwest of Belfast.
Adjacent to the east side of Lough Neagh, within the territory of Ahoghill.
It was surrounded by large fields diligently cultivated by the villagers.
Originally, this place should have been very peaceful and beautiful.
Moonlight replaced lights to illuminate the streets, and people were immersed in hazy dreams.
However.
The village was now engulfed in firelight, the air was filled with the smell of blood, and screaming cries rose and fell, as if a nightmare had suddenly descended upon reality.
"No! Don't... Aaaah————"
A middle-aged woman, still wearing a lace nightgown, who had just run out of her house, was desperately pounced upon by two figures with fangs and eyes glowing orange-red.
Her neck was savagely bitten, warm blood flowed out, and then her thighs were clawed, leaving bloody streaks.
No matter how much the woman struggled in pain, she couldn't push these monsters away.
Their strength was simply far beyond that of ordinary humans.
The woman's shoulder bone was broken, causing her even greater suffering.
As more and more blood was lost, the woman's struggles gradually lessened, until she completely lost vitality and consciousness.
The two figures pressing down on her finally rose slowly, satisfied, and rushed towards a new prey, leaving a large bloodstain on the ground before them.
However, two seconds later, the woman who should have been dead suddenly got up and followed them.
At this moment, she was emitting meaningless roars from her mouth.
Her originally fair and delicate skin had become dark and dry.
Her eyes also glowed with an orange-red radiance.
This appeared particularly bright, eerie, and terrifying in the black night.
If one were to look down upon the entire village from high altitude.
With the help of the moonlight and firelight, it could be clearly seen.
On the streets and alleys, there were these non-human, zombie-like monsters everywhere, searching for and chasing the terrified living people who were trying to escape.
Moreover, their number was increasing, while the number of people caught was decreasing.
"Captain, aren't we going to help them?"
Tiffania, hidden in a forest outside the village, asked in a low voice with some reluctance.
She saw that there were also some children inside.
"We can't help."
"Our mission is to find supernaturals, monitor them secretly after finding them, collect intelligence, then send the intelligence back to the base, and wait for subsequent orders."
Tekka Uchiha looked at the village being destroyed in the distance, his heart completely calm.
Tiffania looked disappointed upon hearing this.
Bryan, who was beside her, also felt some reluctance, but being the weakest, he chose to keep quiet.
Isaac and Mick Zacharias were completely indifferent.
The former was a 'State Alchemist' from the Alchemy Kingdom Army in the Imperial Arms World, now an 'Ice Alchemist' of the Sea Star Alchemist Association.
The latter was from the Survey Corps of the Eldian Kingdom in the Titan World, and was currently a Major in the Aldia Unit under the Greedy Wolf Star Unit.
Both of them could be said to have a military background.
Naturally, they had a higher psychological tolerance for such a tragic scene.
"Can you estimate roughly how many zombies there are? No, how many 'people' are there here..."
Tekka Uchiha looked at Mick Zacharias.
Through the data on member abilities provided by the Otherworld Strategy Committee.
He knew that this Eldian had an extraordinary sense of smell no less than that of the Inuzuka Clan.
The latter twitched his nose, inhaling the air several times.
Then Mick frowned: "The smell of blood is too strong, but I can confirm it's around a thousand people."
When he was in the Survey Corps before, his nose could detect the number of Giants nearby, and even their specific direction.
It was precisely this talent that was recognized by the Otherworld Strategy Committee, and he was specifically transferred here to execute intelligence missions.
"Take out the Den Den Mushi. Next, you will be responsible for filming the footage and sending it back to the Belfast side. I will go in and see if there are any targets worth noting."
"Return here to assembly in thirty minutes. Remember, try not to alarm them, because we haven't received combat orders!"
Tekka Uchiha said the latter part to Tiffania.
Tiffania, of course, understood, and nodded silently, pressing her lips together.
If it were before, she might have thought she was right to save people, and might have acted impulsively out of kindness.
But not now.
After all, Louise and Hiraga Saito were still in Impel Down.
The next second.
Tekka Uchiha's eyes turned scarlet.
Three small black Tomoe slowly rotated in his eyes.
This sight startled Tiffania, Bryan, Isaac, and Mick.
At the same time.
Tekka Uchiha instantly disappeared from his original spot.
This was both because of his speed and because he used the Invisibility Technique.
"Is that the Sharingan? It looks really cool!"
Bryan, who had come to his senses, couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Tiffania replied softly, "Really? I think it's quite terrifying..."
Isaac and Mick were both men of few words.
They just exchanged glances.
Then Mick spoke up to remind them: "We should also start our operation. Tiffania, remember to maintain the 'Illusion' Magic."
"Yes!"
Tiffania, who was completely shrouded in a black robe, hiding her elf ears, tightly gripped the Magic Wand in her hand and quickly agreed.
"Don't worry, I will definitely protect you!"
Bryan patted her shoulder to comfort her, and Tiffania nodded obediently: "I'm counting on you, Mr. Bryan."
On the other side.
Tekka Uchiha, who had left his teammates and infiltrated the village alone, was focused on executing his mission.
He paid no attention to the bloodthirsty zombies passing by him one by one.
His scarlet Sharingan, relying on its powerful insight, quickly scanned every corner of the surroundings, trying to find intelligence worth noting, perfectly demonstrating his professional level as a Ninja.
He actually didn't quite understand why they didn't let their Ninjas continue to be solely responsible for collecting intelligence in the New World.
Instead, they had to find a group of rookies who, despite having various supernatural powers, had no experience or professionalism in the 'business'.
Yes, in Tekka Uchiha's eyes, these three temporary teammates of his were all rookies who were somewhat holding him back.
Leaving aside everything else, just in terms of speed, they couldn't keep up with him.
Not only did he have to deliberately slow down, but he also had to rest from time to time.
This had long made him feel impatient.
It would really be better to give him three Ninja teammates, even if they were just Genin.
One must know that a Genin from the Sea Ninja Village, placed in the Ninja World of the past, would be at the Chunin level of the Five Great Ninja Villages.
To be honest.
He felt that the high-ranking officials of the Otherworld Strategy Committee who made this decision were very foolish.
It was completely unnecessary!
However, after joining the World Government, Tekka Uchiha had seen many powerhouses, and his arrogance had been worn down quite a bit.
Now, all that remained was his pride in the Uchiha and the Sharingan, and the goal of making the Uchiha great again in the Sea Star.
This allowed him to hide his emotions and get along normally with Tiffania and the others.
However, acting alone like this made Tekka Uchiha feel more at ease and brought back the feeling of executing missions.
"Hmm, that is..."
Just as he was wandering through the village like an invisible ghost in the darkness.
He suddenly discovered a guy who was different from the rest.
Hundreds of zombies were gathered around him.
And more zombies were constantly converging from a distance.
The key was that his eyes were not orange-red, but scarlet.
Looking at his appearance, laughing wildly up at the sky, he clearly had normal self-awareness.
Tekka Uchiha knew he had found the key target!
