After a battered Uchiha Jonin reported that the southern defenses had fallen and Elder Uchiha Burin had been killed, Shin and Madara concealed the news to protect the Uchiha Clan’s morale. With the Senju threat preventing them from withdrawing their forces, Shin decided to go south alone to aid the clan.

• A Uchiha Jonin reported that a mysterious blast had breached the southern city wall, Burin had been killed, and Elder Yujian was retreating with the surviving forces.

• Fuma Kotaro, Chiba Tenki, the Uzumaki Great Elder, and Hyuga Shinshu attacked Shin with weapons, a leaf sword, a sealing cage, and a chakra strike.

• Shin summoned Perfect Susanoo, which drew two energy swords and swung them at the four clan leaders.

Shin survived the clash between his Complete Body Susanoo and the five clan leaders’ combined ultimate techniques, while the blast shattered the Raw Stone barrier. As the battered leaders considered retreat, Shin swung his sword and declared that one of them would be the first to die.

• Shin’s Susanoo clashed with the four leaders’ ultimate techniques, creating a blast that shook the region and pushed the Raw Stone barrier to its limit.
