Chapter 71 - Chapter 71: Defeat

A gigantic Susanoo appeared before the Shinobi Alliance like a legendary demon god.

With every step, the earth trembled.

Seeing this, the Ninja of the Shinobi Alliance were dumbfounded.

"The power of the Third? Susanoo? Is this really a power that Ninja can control?"

"How does it feel even more oppressive than the Eight-Tails? Uchiha Yuzuru still hides such power?!"

"Hehe... it must be a joke."

"I don't believe it. It must be some kind of illusion to scare us away. Don't be so naive!"

"Everyone, don't give up! Attack together! Victory absolutely belongs to us!"

"That's right, prepare for battle immediately! Kill!!!"

After the initial shock, the Ninja of the Shinobi Alliance all shouted frantically.

No matter how powerful Uchiha Yuzuru seemed, ultimately, he was just one person.

As long as they attacked simultaneously, he would definitely not be able to resist!

Every person in the Shinobi Alliance began to mobilize all their Chakra, releasing Ninjutsu with all their might.

Wind, Lightning Release, Water, Fire, Earth... various Ninjutsu combined, forming a mighty torrent that crashed heavily onto the Susanoo.

Loud roars continuously echoed, and the earth trembled as if a Dragon had turned over.

In an instant, the smoke and dust from the explosion obscured everything.

Everyone stared wide-eyed at the smoke in front of them.

With such powerful might, Uchiha Yuzuru definitely couldn't withstand it!

Suddenly, an invisible wave of Qi spread outwards, and the strong winds dispersed the smoke, revealing the Susanoo's body once again before everyone.

"H-how is this possible? The previous attack seemed to have no effect at all."

"Hehehe... damn it, what kind of monster is this?!"

"No, I don't know how to win at all. Can a person really be this strong?"

Looking at the Shinobi Alliance below, which had lost its fighting spirit like ants, Uchiha Yuzuru crossed his arms and snorted lightly: "It's impressive that you have the courage to challenge me, but that's the only thing I can praise you for, because... challenging a god is inherently — reckless!"

As his voice fell, the Susanoo's hand gripped the long Saber at its waist.

"Kamui Split Realm Slash!"

The long Saber was drawn, and a pitch-black Saber Qi instantly shot out.

Wherever the Saber Qi passed, space was split in half like a mirror.

Upon contact with the black Saber Qi, thousands of Ninja from the Shinobi Alliance were instantly reduced to dust.

Everything seemed to be still; no sound could be heard in the world.

At this moment, whether it was the Ninja of the Hidden Cloud Village or the Ninja of the Shinobi Alliance, all were stunned in place.

After an unknown amount of time, a tearful voice finally rang out from the Shinobi Alliance.

"No, this guy is not someone we can defeat. Run, everyone, run!"

As the voice fell, fear rapidly spread through the Shinobi Alliance.

The next moment, the remaining Shinobi Alliance began to desperately run back in the direction they came from.

Everyone exerted all their strength, as if anyone who ran a little slower would immediately be harvested by the Shinigami's scythe.

Thus, the Shinobi Alliance, formed by the four great Ninja villages... was defeated!

"I got carried away. The consumption was really a bit much..."

Uchiha Yuzuru returned to the side of the Third Raikage and the others, smiling bitterly to himself.

Even with the enhancement of the Bloodline power from the Yotsuki Clan and the Chinoike Clan, his previous attack was a bit excessive.

An attack that killed thousands of Ninja at once, the consumption of ocular power was simply immeasurable... It seems that before he obtains the power to restore the ocular power of the Mangekyo Sharingan, he needs to be as frugal as possible.

Otherwise, no matter how much ocular power he has, it will only decrease with each use.

This made Uchiha Yuzuru, who had a bit of a hoarding tendency, feel very insecure.

After a brief thought, Uchiha Yuzuru looked at Orochimaru, who was standing by.

"Orochimaru, you should go back first."

"I hope that when we meet next time, you will be able to accept the fate I have given you."

Uchiha Yuzuru was very clear about Orochimaru's personality, knowing that he was not someone who could be easily won over.

So he was not in a hurry; anyway, with his power, he would eventually be able to firmly control Orochimaru.

Of course, the premise was that Orochimaru didn't keep annoying him.

Otherwise, he could just kill him and then use Edo Tensei; it wasn't impossible.

Upon hearing Uchiha Yuzuru's words, Orochimaru snapped out of his shock.

He felt his lips dry and instinctively tried to lick them with his tongue, but failed.

After taking a deep look into Uchiha Yuzuru's eyes, Orochimaru immediately used the Body Flicker Technique and disappeared from the spot.

This was the power that Uchiha Madara used to quell the chaotic world back then; it was truly terrifying and captivating.

Compared to this power, what were the things he once prided himself on?

Perhaps, as Uchiha Yuzuru said, human life was truly too fragile.

He... didn't want to be human anymore!

After Orochimaru left, the Third Raikage, Ay, Uchiha Fugaku, and Sakumo Hatake all came back to their senses.

The Third Raikage patted Uchiha Yuzuru's shoulder and laughed heartily: "Yuzuru, you still possess such powerful strength. I'm afraid even I am no match for you now."

His intuition told him that the power the other party had just used could easily tear apart his Lightning Release Armor.

Moreover, with such a huge range, even with his speed, there was nowhere to dodge.

Ay and Sakumo Hatake were somewhat wistful.

Originally, they had all been holding a grudge, wanting to defeat Uchiha Yuzuru through diligent Cultivation.

But now it seemed completely hopeless.

Uchiha Yuzuru was more like a monster; every time he made a move, he would refresh their cognitive limits.

Uchiha Fugaku, on the other hand, had a look of arrogance, his nostrils almost pointing to the sky.

What Yuzuru had just used was the power of their Uchiha Clan.

Just thinking of Uchiha Yuzuru's handsome appearance earlier made his body tremble with excitement.

Flashy, handsome, and powerful... this was the charm of a pure-blooded Uchiha!

Thinking of this, a hint of longing appeared in Uchiha Fugaku's eyes.

If only one day he could also obtain the power of the Mangekyo Sharingan.

Uchiha Yuzuru didn't pay attention to their thoughts, he just spoke to the Third Raikage: "Third Hokage, are you satisfied with today's battle?"

The Third Raikage dug his ear, his expression excited: "Satisfied, extremely satisfied! I'm completely ecstatic!"

Today, he not only fought to his heart's content but also witnessed the god-like power of the Uchiha Clan.

Most importantly, facing the attack of ten thousand Ninja of the Shinobi Alliance, their Hidden Cloud Village did not suffer a single casualty!

All of this made him feel like he was dreaming.

"Yuzuru, come with me." The Third Raikage took Uchiha Yuzuru's hand and walked to the edge of the high platform.

He looked at the Cloud Ninja below and shouted loudly: "Tell me, did you enjoy today's battle?"

The Cloud Ninja below immediately shouted in unison: "Yes!"

"Whose contribution was the greatest?"

"Lord Yuzuru!"

"Then I hereby announce that from now on in the Land of Lightning, Yuzuru's orders are my orders."

"As the Raikage, I grant Uchiha Yuzuru the same authority as myself!"

As the Third Raikage's voice fell, thunderous applause immediately erupted below.

"Long live Lord Raikage! Long live Lord Yuzuru!"

Listening to the cheers from below, the Third Raikage nodded in satisfaction.

Ever since Uchiha Yuzuru led the Uchiha Clan to the Hidden Cloud Village, they had been as if divinely aided.

Now, after seeing Uchiha Yuzuru's terrifying power, the Third Raikage's conviction grew even stronger.

Isn't it just giving a little more power?

Is that even an issue?

The other party and his Uchiha Clan are now settled in the Hidden Cloud Village, so no matter how strong he is, the Hidden Cloud Village benefits.

What if he, the Raikage, steps down? What difference would it make?

Everyone said he wasn't smart, but the Third Raikage felt that someone like Hiruzen Sarutobi was the real brain-dead one.

If it weren't for him forcing away powerful individuals like Uchiha Yuzuru and Sakumo Hatake, how would their Hidden Cloud Village be enjoying its current glory?
