For an ordinary ninja, the two figures in the sky were as powerful as gods.
Lord Reto was already regarded as the strongest in the eyes of many in the Land of Wind.
However, no one had anticipated that the enemy attacking tonight would be so powerful and fearsome.
Wait, what did Lord Shamon say just now?
Uchiha Kyosuke?!
Unknowingly, many had etched that name into their hearts.
An existence that could stand side by side with Lord Reto himself.
In the sky, Kyosuke was still struggling to fend off the enemy's electromagnetic cannon.
Since awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan, he had never faced such an intense battle.
Without the motivation from negative emotions, he could only rely on chakra to force his Susanoo to evolve.
"Fortunately, I have the cursed seal. By using diluted natural energy, I can ensure the completion of Susanoo's third form."
As for the consequences of forcing this power?
At this moment, Kyosuke could no longer afford to care.
Soon, the broken flesh was restored, and the dark golden skeleton was once again covered with its outer layer.
Under the watchful gaze of the enemy, a phantom armor suddenly appeared, wrapping around the Susanoo like the mouth of a giant beast.
Susanoo – Third Form!
With the addition of the Karasutengu armor, Susanoo's defense was drastically increased.
This form of Susanoo was immensely powerful, but its chakra consumption also increased greatly, making it highly unstable. Most regular Mangekyō Sharingan users would struggle to maintain the third form for long periods.
In the original story, the already ailing Uchiha Itachi used his life force to activate this form.
He forced his body to seal Orochimaru, only to die moments later in front of Sasuke.
Sasuke was the same. The intense battle with Danzo had caused a significant depletion of his ocular power, but he stubbornly activated the third stage through his negative emotions.
The result? Before even making a move, he blinded himself.
Looking at the current situation, Kyosuke had already embarked on the dangerous path of greatly exhausting his ocular power.
"Ah!!" A suppressed roar erupted from him as he completed the essential evolution of his Susanoo.
In his right hand, he wielded the indestructible phantom Kusunagi sword, while in his left hand, he formed a phantom shield, preparing to use it to block the enemy's electromagnetic cannon.
Boom!
Bright lightning streaked across the night sky. Realizing the situation was dire, Reto finally launched the Thunder Spear in his hand.
However, its power was no longer enough to penetrate the shield held by Susanoo.
Enduring the searing pain coursing through his body, Kyosuke charged towards the enemy, Susanoo's sword raised high, giving the opponent no chance to evade.
Seeing this, the future First Kazekage gritted his teeth, and with a surge of electromagnetic force, a power far greater than the previous violent lightning began to gather.
"Brat, you are still 100 years too early to defeat me!!!"
Magnet Release: Super Electromagnetic Cannon!
A thick electrical current, resembling a laser, struck Kyosuke's Susanoo directly.
The immense impact caused his slash to miss the target.
However, before the smile on the enemy's lips could even fade, the Yasaka Magatama, already charged and ready, shot out with tremendous force.
Bang!
The Magatama exploded, and the enemy, drenched in blood, fell from the sky.
Had it not been for the layer of iron sand on his body, this strike would have been enough to kill Reto on the spot.
Even now, his injuries were grave, and he would need at least a month to recover fully.
By the time Reto was fully healed, the Land of Wind forces would have already been defeated.
After all, their numbers were small, with most left behind to defend the homeland, which also had to be protected against hostile forces.
Wooh~
Kyosuke's blood spurted out and a feeling of suffocation suddenly surged into his heart.
But he knew that he couldn't lose consciousness now; otherwise, without the enemy's intervention, the fall from such a height alone would be enough to kill him.
Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, he quickly formed hand signs and lightly pressed his hand against the empty space beside him.
Ninja Art: Summoning Technique!
With a loud bang, smoke erupted, and the figure of Hiti appeared in the air.
"Lord Kyosuke, big, big!!!"
Seeing the rapidly approaching ground, Hiti trembled, its lips quivering in fear.
Not bothering to speak with it, Kyosuke pried open the snake's mouth and crawled inside.
"If you don't want to die? Then hurry up and dispel the summoning."
"Oh~"
Just a second before hitting the ground, Hiti finally dispelled the summoning on its own.
Together with Kyosuke inside it, both were returned to the Ryūchi Cave.
"Ah~ Yes, it's the familiar ceiling."
After some time, Kyosuke found himself once again submerged in the snake pond of Ryūchi Cave.
Nearby, Togorihime was lazily flicking a small leather whip at a smooth round stone.
It seemed like she was practicing something..
"..." Kyosuke coughed lightly, a bad feeling rising in his heart.
The result was as expected. He once again fell victim to the whip training of the divine maiden.
After all, he was always wounded, and once he sought her help, he had to follow her rules.
Of course, he also took the opportunity to review the process of practicing senjutsu, although his current body was not yet capable of handling it.
However one day, he would grow, and the power of senjutsu was undoubtedly among the highest forms of strength, It could never hurt to learn more.
On the other hand, after losing two key commanders in succession, the invaders from the Land of Wind were no longer as brave as they had been before.
Watanabe Kaoru was brutally killed, and their leader, Reto, was severely wounded and unlikely to recover. The second-generation Shamon, who had not yet fully grown, was insufficient to resist the Southern Legion's offensive.
Soon, the invaders were driven out of the border, and after half a month of stalemate, the Land of Wind was the first to announce a retreat.
The reason was simple: Reto had not yet recovered, and Uchiha Kyosuke had reappeared on the battlefield.
Thinking back to that night, his figure, like that of a God, who else besides Reto would have the confidence to face such a monster?
In any case, the agreement had been mostly fulfilled, so retreating now wouldn't violate the promise made earlier.
At the border, Reto gazed at the territory of the Land of Fire, unable to regain his senses for a long time.
"My Lord," Beside him, Shamon seemed hesitant to speak.
"Let's go." Without a word, he silently turned around, his soft mutterings slipping past unnoticed by anyone around him.
"One day, this land will kneel before my feet."
The Southern Legion of the Uchiha won a great victory, driving the invaders back to the Land of Wind.
This news quickly spread in all directions, somewhat restoring the morale in the previously unfavorable situation.
That's right, even with the combined forces of the Hyūga and Uchiha, they were beginning to show signs of being unable to resist.
The enemy's puppet technique was simply too strong, a perfect example of growing stronger the longer they fought.
So far, many Uchiha clan members have already become puppets of the enemy, raising the blade against their former comrades and families.
Had it not been for the strength of Hashirama's Wood Release, which single-handedly covered a third of the war's devastation, the entire frontline might have already collapsed.
Driven to desperation, Tajima finally made up his mind—he was going to execute a decapitation plan.
Little did he know, this was precisely the scene some people were hoping for.
The current Ōtsutsuki Sugito was no longer the same as before. He had remained still all this time, just to lure the ignorant into his trap.
Sometimes, the roles of hunter and prey could be so blurred.
A single misstep, and the identities of the two could easily be switched.
