[Start of the chapter]

At the same time, the moment he heard that Sarutobi Hiruzen intended to keep observing—

The Danzō beside him grew anxious and immediately shouted, "We can't wait any longer!"

"An internal conflict within the Uchiha Clan has spread to the village and threatened so many people…"

"That alone shows how cold-blooded they are. They never considered the village at all. Their rebellious intent is already obvious!"

"And a ninjutsu like that must consume an enormous amount of Chakra."

"Right now is the perfect opportunity to defeat both of them, and in one stroke seize the entire Uchiha Clan!"

"The situation is already urgent—are you still going to indulge the Uchiha Clan?!"

Sarutobi frowned. "We don't know much about 'Susanoo.' If we act rashly, it will only increase casualties!"

"It's just 'Susanoo,' that's all!"

"As long as we attack together and concentrate our strength, we can definitely kill these two traitors!"

Danzō pulled out a kunai and called out loudly.

While putting on the posture of leading by example and charging first—

He also urged the people around him to advance together.

Using this chance to eliminate Uchiha Fugaku and that terrifying Uchiha boy!

But in the next moment—

Danzō, who was only pretending to charge, froze in place.

Because aside from a handful of Root shinobi, not a single other person showed any intention of attacking.

Everyone stared straight at him, as if looking at an idiot.

Obviously, with the Third Hokage present, it wasn't this Root leader's place to command everyone.

And besides, nobody was foolish enough to rush forward and smash head-on into a terrifying Susanoo demon-god like that.

Not to mention doing it with nothing but a kunai as a weapon.

For a moment, gripping the kunai in his hand, Danzō was stuck between advancing and retreating. The situation was unbearably awkward, and he was so furious his face turned pale.

But after hesitating again and again, in the end he still didn't dare to take a step forward and launch an attack.

Night was ink-black, pitch-dark.

In front of the Konoha Military Police Force building—

Space suddenly rippled, and a figure wearing a yellow, tiger-striped spiral mask abruptly descended.

"Konoha Military Police Force?"

"How ridiculous!"

"Let this joke end tonight."

Obito let out a cold laugh. His figure blurred—

And he rushed into the police force building in front of him.

However, in the very next instant—

He discovered that despite the building being brightly lit, it was completely empty!

The dozens of Uchiha elite who should have been on duty here had all vanished without a trace!

How was that possible?!

Had the Uchiha Clan's coup already begun?

Had the clan's elite members all moved out?

Impossible!

An operation like that couldn't possibly slip past Konoha.

Then where in the world had these people gone?

Just as Obito was utterly bewildered—

"Boom! Boom…"

A series of massive explosions and heavy impacts rolled in from the distance.

Obito immediately activated his signature technique, Kamui.

In an instant, he warped himself to the top of a building and looked in the direction of the violent battle sounds.

And then—

When he saw with his own eyes two gigantic Susanoo demon-gods rising into the air from within the Uchiha District, he was struck dumb in shock!

"How is that possible?!"

"That… is 'Susanoo'?"

"Is it Itachi?"

"No—this isn't his aura!"

"Don't tell me the Uchiha Clan has two other Mangekyō users hidden away?"

"Hidden this deeply?"

"From the looks of it, one of them should be Fugaku!"

"Hmph! That useless clan head is finally showing his real skills?"

"Is this an internal upheaval?"

"He's resisting?"

"To outsiders he's timid and indecisive, dragging his feet. But against his own people he throws heavy punches without mercy?"

"Tch."

Obito snorted in disdain inwardly.

But he didn't choose to rashly approach that area.

After all, most of Konoha's strong fighters had already gathered over there.

If he went in carelessly and got exposed, it would be trouble.

Better to observe from far away first.

At the same time—

Around the battlefield, under Sarutobi's instructions, the other Konoha shinobi didn't recklessly join the fight either.

They evacuated residents in an orderly manner while sealing off the surroundings,

Trying to reduce the spread of the conflict as much as possible.

And now, at the very center of the battlefield—

While controlling his Susanoo in fierce combat, Sayoha also had to spare attention for the situation around him.

Seeing Sarutobi, Danzō, and the others arrive one after another—

The timing was finally ripe.

He stopped holding back and abruptly erupted at full power!

His dōjutsu power and Chakra poured out like a flood, driving the Mangekyō Sharingan.

He directly pushed "Susanoo" from the first stage into the second stage.

In a single instant—

Countless Chakra-formed sinews and flesh grew wildly, forming an outer "coat" that wrapped the entire skeletal frame of Susanoo.

In this state, Susanoo's offensive and defensive power both skyrocketed.

It could even use its own unique weapons and ninjutsu.

Its might far surpassed the initial and first-stage Susanoo.

Of course, in this state the Chakra consumption multiplied, placing an enormous burden on the Mangekyō Sharingan.

It couldn't be sustained for long.

"Sayoha… you actually developed 'the power of the gods' to this level!!"

Staring at the Susanoo figure now clad as if in a divine mantle, its aura surging and becoming even more fearsome—

Fugaku's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but cry out…
