Susanoo's Might, Blade Slices Yagura

"This is, this is?"

"Mangekyo Sharingan! Susanoo?!!"

In the distance, watching the scarlet phantom of a demon god displaying its Kamui in the rain, Genji, the elder of Kirigakure, could not help but exclaim.

After nearly sixty years, this scene before his eyes forced him to recall the patriarch of the Uchiha Clan, Madara, from the end of the Warring States period.

The same terrifying strength, the same unrivaled power.

After all these years, has the Uchiha Clan produced another monster like this?!!

And he is so young, excessively young!

"Is this the outside help Zabuza found?"

"We can fight! There is a chance!"

Genji's eyes brightened, as if he saw hope.

He was well aware of the power of the Mangekyo Sharingan and Susanoo.

It was absolutely enough to rival the power of a Tailed Beast!

Looking at it, the Uchiha Youth did not seem to be dealing a lethal blow. He wondered if some kind of deal had been reached with Zabuza.

However, as long as the Fourth Mizukage could be overthrown, paying some price would be worth it.

Besides, such a young child shouldn't be too greedy...

"Elder! This..."

Terumi Mei suppressed the shock in her heart and asked in a low voice.

Genji: "Prepare yourself. Wait for my signal to act!"

Terumi Mei's eyes lit up, and she quickly agreed: "Understood!"

She immediately went to make arrangements.

At the same time.

Except for the majority of Anbu ninjas who joined the battle directly upon the order of the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, a small portion of Anbu ninjas did not rashly intervene.

Leading them was none other than Suikazan Fuguki.

"Captain!"

"Is that Kisame? You finally arrived."

Suikazan turned his head, and seeing Kisame approaching quietly behind him, he felt a slight sense of relief.

"Captain, are we not joining the battle?"

"Wait a moment. Or tell me, do you think you can withstand a single strike from that guy?"

Suikazan Fuguki pointed at the towering Susanoo and asked with lingering fear.

With that kind of momentum, he was afraid he couldn't even take one blow head-on, let alone Kisame?

"I..."

Kisame remained silent. As an honest man, he would not speak boastfully.

If he couldn't take it, he couldn't take it...

"Kisame, let me ask you a question."

"Are you loyal to Lord Fourth Mizukage? Or to the village?" Suikazan Fuguki asked again in a deep voice.

Kisame was stunned, seemingly guessing something.

"Of course, the village."

"Good, then listen to my orders later!"

"Understood!"

Suikazan Fuguki reached out a large hand, patted Kisame on the back, and instructed him in a low voice.

The battle was intense.

In just a short moment, the gates of Kirigakure and more than a dozen surrounding buildings were leveled by the shockwaves of the fight.

This goes to show the sheer destructive power of the Susanoo in combat.

However, the fierce battle ended just as quickly.

Driven by the temptation of "ten million per blade."

Natsume controlled the Susanoo, unleashing a wild and ferocious onslaught that was nothing short of exhilarating!

In less than half a minute, he had swept through dozens of surrounding Anbu ninjas.

Of course, he had deliberately held back his strength.

Aside from one or two ninjas who carelessly collided with the Susanoo's blade and died instantly, most of the other Anbu ninjas were merely knocked unconscious by the flat of the blade.

Their lives were spared.

After all, every ninja who survived was cold, hard Gin that Kirigakure would have to pay him later!

How could Natsume ever go against his own money?

Seeing his many Anbu ninjas rapidly defeated, the Fourth Mizukage Yagura, his mind under control, remained cold and indifferent.

He seemed not to care in the slightest about the lives of those Anbu ninjas.

Or perhaps, he had intended to use these ninjas to wear Natsume down from the start.

As for Natsume, having dealt with the small fry, he didn't waste a single word.

He swung his blade once more, aiming directly for the Fourth Mizukage Yagura in the distance.

"Lord Mizukage!"

"Lord Fourth!"

People in the surrounding crowd shouted warnings.

Clearly, even the most brutal ruler, as long as there are interests to be gained, will never lack lackeys willing to die for them.

The next moment, just as the blade was about to descend, a massive surge of chakra suddenly erupted from Yagura's body.

Without a doubt, it was the chakra of the Three-Tails Isobu.

In an instant, the dark red chakra of the Three-Tails enveloped Yagura's entire body, triggering a partial Tailed Beast transformation and revealing three dark red tails.

This significantly boosted Yagura's overall strength.

"Clang--"

The partially transformed Yagura let out a roar toward the heavens, extending a pair of sharp claws to meet the Susanoo's strike head-on.

A metallic boom exploded, shaking the surroundings.

The immense recoil generated a hurricane that rippled outward.

The partially transformed Yagura was forced to slide back over ten meters, leaving long trenches in the ground.

Yet, relying on the formidable defense of the Tailed Beast Cloak, he had actually withstood the strike, suffering only minor concussive injuries.

This goes to show just how powerful the strength of a Tailed Beast is!

"Interesting, you actually took that hit."

"It seems this blade isn't sharp enough!"

"Then I'll just change to another one!"

Natsume raised an eyebrow and chuckled.

If there is something you cannot cleave, it only means your strength is insufficient;

or perhaps, your blade is not good enough.

Natsume's own strength was certainly sufficient. Moreover, he happened to have a Divine Blade capable of manifesting as a spiritual weapon.

The next moment, the chakra greatsword dissipated.

Immediately following, a crimson radiance bloomed in the Susanoo's hand.

The divine artifact Kunwu Blade instantly transformed, becoming a twenty-meter-long spiritual blade.

"Again! Try this strike of mine!"

The brilliant blade light descended, like a meteor falling upon the world.

The speed was so great that it gave Yagura no chance to react!

"Awoo--!"

Beneath the blade, Yagura, in his partial Tailed Beast state, let out a strange cry.

He swung his claws once more, preparing to take the blow head-on!

But this time, the sharp gleam of the blade was far beyond anything from the previous strike.

"Clang--!"

That incredibly tough Tailed Beast Cloak, with its astonishing defensive power capable of even resisting the piercing of the Kusanagi Sword, could only crumble under the edge of the [Kunwu Blade].

It didn't even last half a second!

The blade cleaved right through his sharp claws.

Along with one of his tails and his entire left arm, everything was severed!

In an instant, blood splattered everywhere.

The entire scene was stunned.
