Respect Me as You Would a God!

"Spread out, everyone, spread out!!"

"You brats, do you have a death wish standing this close to a battle of this level?"

"Get back, at least two hundred meters away!"

"..."

The Uchiha elders shouted themselves hoarse, driving away the Uchiha clan members who wanted to watch the duel up close.

The younger generation of the Uchiha clan, in particular, was exceptionally curious about the power of the legendary Mangekyo Sharingan.

Meanwhile, the elderly survivors from the era of Uchiha Madara and Hashirama Senju skillfully moved away from the center of the battlefield.

If the grounds had been larger, they would have wanted to retreat even farther. Even at two hundred meters, there was still a risk of getting caught in the crossfire.

Before long, the Uchiha clan members had cleared an open space, leaving only Uchiha Nan and Uchiha Tomita behind.

"Then let's begin."

After Uchiha Nan spoke, the purple phantom of Susanoo gradually solidified. First came the arms, then the ribs, then the torso. A massive skeletal upper body enveloped Uchiha Nan within it.

As Uchiha Nan continued to exert himself, flesh covered the skeletal frame, and its height had already reached over fifty meters.

"Keep going!!"

Uchiha Nan shouted. He could feel that the potential of the Mangekyo Sharingan had yet to be fully unearthed.

Before long, the flesh was covered in armor, and its height surged to over seventy meters.

It seemed he had reached the limit.

Uchiha Nan felt a faint pain in his eyes.

This was the limit of the Mangekyo Sharingan. Uchiha Madara's Susanoo had stood over a hundred meters tall, with a crystal-like Perfect Susanoo atop its head. It seemed only the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan could summon that.

Still, this should be enough to deal with Uchiha Tomita.

Uchiha Nan swept out a hand, and a dark yellow ninja blade appeared out of thin air in Susanoo's grasp. It was entirely formed from magma—the power of Lava Release.

Uchiha Nan went all out!

"I never thought I'd see such power in my lifetime."

"Heaven has blessed the Uchiha!"

"Let's see who in Konoha can still stand against the Uchiha!!!"

"Hahahaha!!!"

A purple Susanoo giant stood there. Even from two hundred meters away, the overwhelmingly powerful Chakra emanating from Susanoo still made their hearts tremble.

This was simply not power that humans could possess.

This was the power of a god!!

The watching Uchiha elders erupted once more, tears streaming from their eyes as they shouted like madmen in excitement.

The younger generation of the Uchiha clan stared fixedly at Uchiha Nan's Susanoo, their eyes filled with reverence, envy, and longing!

Tell them—

What young man didn't want to pilot a Gundam!!

Uchiha Tomita watched as the towering giant appeared before him within just a few breaths, and a sense of his own insignificance flooded his mind.

He was starting to regret agreeing to duel Uchiha Nan.

I'm supposed to fight a monster like this?

You've got to be kidding me!

Standing at its feet, Uchiha Tomita could barely see Uchiha Nan even when he craned his neck upward. Everywhere he looked, there was only Susanoo's massive, powerful body.

"Are you ready, Tomita?"

Uchiha Nan looked down at Uchiha Tomita, who was as tiny as an ant beneath his feet. No wonder Uchiha Madara only thought highly of Hashirama Senju. Once one possessed this kind of power, who would still care about the opinions of ordinary people?

Wouldn't it be better for them to obediently submit?

Still, Uchiha Nan thoughtfully asked Uchiha Tomita whether he was ready for the duel.

"We can begin."

Uchiha Tomita answered through gritted teeth, gripping his ninja blade tightly with both hands as sweat seeped from his palms.

Charge in and test him!

"AAAAAHHHH!!!"

Uchiha Tomita rushed before Uchiha Nan's Susanoo and swung his ninja blade with all his strength.

Clang!

A notch appeared in the ninja blade that had followed Uchiha Tomita through countless battles, while Uchiha Nan's Susanoo remained completely unharmed.

Such strong defense!!

Uchiha Tomita looked at his blade with heartache. It had been forged from top-grade iron and infused with precious Chakra-conducting ore, yet it still could not even break through Uchiha Nan's defenses.

"It was a little itchy!"

Uchiha Nan felt no pain at all. If anything, it was a little itchy.

"Fire Style: Great Fire Annihilation!!"

Uchiha Tomita rapidly formed hand seals, gathering Chakra in his mouth. In an instant, a sea of flames appeared and surged toward Uchiha Nan.

This move was rather interesting!

A smile appeared on Uchiha Nan's face as he acknowledged Uchiha Tomita's strength. Without Water Style techniques cast by three to five jonin, there was no stopping that sea of fire; they would only be swallowed by the flames.

However, it was nowhere near enough in front of Uchiha Nan.

Uchiha Nan swung his sword, and a single slash instantly scattered the flames. The powerful attack shot into the sky, traveling a thousand meters and dispersing the drifting clouds overhead. Its lingering force blasted a massive hole in the sky.

At the same time, alarms sounded throughout Konoha. The large Defensive Barrier that had always been set up around Konoha was casually destroyed by Uchiha Nan's attack.

"Enemy attack?"

"The entire village, be on alert!!!"

"The Guard Squad will lock down the entire village and evacuate the civilians. The rest of you, notify every clan in Konoha."

"I'll find Mito-sama!!"

The Konoha Anbu Captain roared out orders. Had the enemy already attacked their doorstep?

Even Konoha's Defensive Barrier had been destroyed!

Konoha instantly fell into chaos. Its civilians were urgently evacuated according to protocol and fled into Konoha's specially built underground passages.

Naturally, Uchiha Nan was still completely unaware of this, immersed in his duel game with Uchiha Tomita.

"So strong!!!"

"I can't win."

Uchiha Tomita stared up at the sky in shock. Was that really an attack a human could unleash?

Great Fire Annihilation had been his most proficient and most powerful Fire Style technique, yet Uchiha Nan had easily neutralized it.

His attacks were not even worthy of making Uchiha Nan defend himself. Uchiha Nan could probably stand there without moving, and Fire Style would still be unable to harm him.

"Lord Uchiha Nan, I admit defeat!"

Uchiha Tomita surrendered. There was no need to continue fighting. To defeat Uchiha Nan, they could only bury him beneath a pile of lives.

They would have to continuously bombard him with all kinds of ninjutsu, supplemented by barriers and sealing techniques, wearing him down until all of Uchiha Nan's Chakra and Dojutsu had been exhausted. Only then might they have a chance of winning.

Lord Uchiha Nan, please withdraw your divine powers!

Hearing Uchiha Tomita surrender, Uchiha Nan felt somewhat unsatisfied. He had surrendered already? Uchiha Nan had not even had enough fun yet.

Still, Uchiha Nan dispelled Susanoo and prepared to enjoy the fruits of his victory.

The moment Uchiha Nan dispelled Susanoo, he felt as though his body had been hollowed out. He had no strength left. Using power so far beyond his own limits came at a price.

He had only just awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan. Being able to use his Dojutsu so quickly was already impressive enough. He would need at least some time to familiarize himself with Susanoo's power before he could even get started. Forcing its use would only blind him.

However, Uchiha Nan did not care. They were only trial vouchers anyway. This show of strength had been more than worth it.

Now the entire Uchiha clan will revere me as a god!!
