A's veins bulged all over his body, his face terrifyingly ferocious.
Dead!
They were all dead!
"UCHIHA HIROMI!!!"
Just as he wanted to fight to the death and take a bite out of Hiromi even if it meant dying, a giant octopus tentacle wrapped around his leg.
"Bee?" A was stunned, his face still lingering with monstrous rage.
Immediately after, he thought of something, and his expression changed drastically. "No..."
Before the words left his lips, the tentacle had already reared back.
Bee, in his full Tailed Beast transformation, grinned and manipulated the tentacle, swinging it forward, throwing A from high in the sky until he disappeared into the horizon.
"BEE!!!"
After sending his older brother away, Bee looked at the seventy-meter-tall Magma Giant in front of him, as well as Matatabi and Hiromi, who were about to cross the volcano group.
"Fool ya fool, octopus ya fool."
He used Gyuki's body to strike a hip-hop pose, looking very distinctive. He seemed to have no regrets about the impending death.
Hiromi glanced at A who had disappeared into the horizon, seemingly unconcerned.
The seventy-meter-tall Magma Giant, the fifty-meter-tall Matatabi, and Hiromi in his Molten God Form.
Surrounded by the three, Bee's future was already sealed.
Soon, the Magma Giant and Matatabi quickly suppressed Gyuki. Hiromi touched its head, absorbing its Chakra to replenish his own.
Bee was stunned. He had intended to delay Hiromi, to drag it out for as long as he could.
But now that his big brother was gone, why was Hiromi still absorbing his Chakra?
Soon, his eyes widened as he realized that Hiromi had a technique where he descended from the sky.
He struggled violently but under the suppression of the Magma Giant and Matatabi, and with his Chakra being rapidly absorbed, he couldn't resist at all, instead covering his body in wounds. Yet he still frantically tried to commit suicide. However, someone was unwilling to let him do so.
"Bee, I'm sorry." Gyuki's voice sounded in his mind.
"Gyuki..." Bee couldn't believe it.
Immediately after, he lost control of Gyuki's body.
"Gyuki! Gyuki!!!"
He shouted frantically inside, but received no response at all, as if he had been locked in a pitch-black room, with no one responding, no one existing.
Outside, Hiromi absorbed the Chakra, sensing something, but he didn't speak. He revealed the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan in his eyes, locking onto Eight-Tails' eyes, and controlled it.
After Hiromi absorbed Chakra with his Rinnegan for a while, his golden markings, combat attire, and blood-red forehead ornament vanished, leaving behind an ordinary-looking youth who exuded a certain pressure and seemed difficult to get along with.
Immediately after, orange flames ignited on his body. Among them, a hint of golden flame emerged.
Crown, gilded patterns, bracelets, anklets.
Fire Release Chakra Mode: Flame Emperor Form!
The moment the imperial aura appeared, the golden flames beneath Hiromi's feet were being compressed. Yet the golden flames refused to submit, and an increasingly destructive aura began to riot.
Ultimately, with a loud explosion, Hiromi transformed into a golden stream of light and vanished into the clouds.
...
More than ten kilometers in front of the volcanic cluster, the Uchiha Clan Members found the Kumogakure Army.
"Kill!"
The Uchiha Jonin held short blades, the three-tomoe in their eyes radiating ferocity, possessing a strength akin to one against a hundred. Although the "hundred" in "one against a hundred" referred to Kumogakure Chunin, and some Uchiha Jonin could only handle two or three Kumogakure Jonin, it still made the Uchiha Chunin look on with excitement.
The dashing style of killing with every step made them envious, and they hoped that one day they too could become one of them.
The battle situation looked very unfavorable for Kumogakure. But in reality, there were still quite a few Kumogakure Jonin. It was just that they couldn't withstand the three Kage-level figures: Shisui, Fugaku, and Itachi.
In the situation where the three did not use Mangekyo, their combat power was far beyond what ordinary Jonin could block. Each one of them required at least a dozen Jonin to barely hold them back. But they were still plunged into a miserable situation.
The three battlefields advanced like meat grinders.
Shisui's Body Flicker combined with the Sharingan's genjutsu made it impossible to see where he would be next.
Clearly, a dozen Kumogakure Jonin had surrounded him, yet it seemed as if he alone had surrounded these dozen Kumogakure Jonin.
Fugaku's gaze made Kumogakure Jonin lose their focus with just one look. Even without making eye contact, just being watched from behind made them feel cold and panicked, as if every tree and blade of grass were an enemy.
At the same time, his Ninjutsu was formidable. Fighting a dozen people alone, he still maintained a crushing dominance.
As for Itachi, his Shurikenjutsu was extremely precise. Before him, many Jonin lost their lives due to small mistakes.
Although Itachi's battlefield was the calmest, it was filled with more hidden dangers than those of Shisui and Fugaku.
Kumogakure Jonin were all afraid that if they weren't careful, a Kunai would suddenly strike their backs and kill them instantly.
Under the leadership of the three—Shisui, Fugaku, and Itachi—the Uchiha Jonin charged in pursuit, and the Chunin watched with envious eyes.
The Uchiha Jonin were considerate of them, occasionally letting one Kumo ninja slip through for them to practice on.
This excited the Uchiha Chunin, with a large group charging toward one Kumo ninja, completely ignoring that this ninja was only a Chunin. They only knew that if they were slow to act, they would lose their chance.
When the Kumogakure Chunin saw this, they were all somewhat terrified. Compared to being drowned and killed by dozens of attacks, they would rather be killed in one strike. At least the death would be less painful.
The Kumogakure Jonin were also somewhat afraid of this group of Uchiha, not daring to get too close, for fear that this pack of Uchiha would unleash such a volley of Ninjutsu on them as well.
At this moment, the entire battle line seemed to have become a training ground for the Uchiha.
Kumogakure's forces retreated more and more as they fought.
But because they did not know the situation of their strongest team ahead, they had to struggle to persist.
When Mabui, C, and Samui, who knew the situation, arrived and issued the order to retreat, the Kumogakure Army had already collapsed, with not even one in a hundred remaining.
Seeing this, many hot-blooded Uchiha Clan Members wanted to pursue and kill, but they were stopped by Shisui and the others.
"Do not chase a desperate foe."
As the Kumo ninjas retreated, smiles appeared on the faces of all the Uchiha.
This battle line had ended, and although they could go to support other battle lines, the important thing was to check on the situation with Hiromi.
Even if the Kumogakure and Kirigakure battle lines collapsed, it would not compare to Hiromi's safety.
