Minamoto Takuya's Susanoo!

A heart-pounding energy suddenly erupted between heaven and earth.

Around Minamoto Takuya, the originally invisible, intangible chakra turned into an impossibly dense shade of black, surging endlessly from his body and roiling upward.

This was the core that supported the ultimate ocular technique known as Susanoo: special chakra fused with the unique ocular power of the Mangekyō Sharingan!

It was no longer mere energy. It also contained the materialized power of spirit and will.

Or rather, it had already entered the supreme realm of "Yin Release," using spiritual energy to shape form and grant substance to the void!

The instant this vast black chakra appeared, it frantically gathered toward the sky as though it could not wait.

This was Susanoo's initial form, as well as the ultimate defense Minamoto Takuya could barely form without fully employing his Mangekyō ocular power.

However, this was not his goal today.

Deeper chakra rapidly spread and took shape across the black rib cage like a living creature.

Amid sounds like growing bones, two thick skeletal arms thrust out forcefully. Immediately afterward, a complete skull radiating an ominous aura condensed amid the surging chakra.

The pair of Mangekyō Sharingan in Minamoto Takuya's eyes instantly erupted with an eerie red glow, while the Ouroboros patterns in his pupils spun faster and faster.

Even denser, stickier black
