"Fugaku, don't get worked up! Don't lead the entire clan down the path of rebellion!" Shimura Danzō's tone softened for the first time.
If the Uchiha rebelled now, Konoha simply could not bear the consequences!
The Uchiha Clan, with its strength fully intact and a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan, against Konoha, which had been severely crippled by the Nine-Tails Incident!
Even if Konoha won, it might reignite the Third Ninja World War!
Watching from the shadows, Yu Zhi found the scene amusing. The Pot Kage had played himself into a disaster!
"Shimura Danzō, this is the first time you've spoken so humbly before me!"
Fugaku felt an incomparable sense of exhilaration. As his words fell, the Chakra and ocular power within him suddenly surged wildly.
"Susanoo!"
His deep shout resounded through the night sky. A towering, massive black skeletal body condensed out of thin air, its grim bones standing tall as an overwhelming pressure instantly swept across the entire clan compound.
The entire scene fell deathly silent. Everyone stared wide-eyed, utterly intimidated by that majestic power.
[A God Tier Ninjutsu exclusive to the Uchiha Mangekyō Sharingan. Chakra and ocular power combine to form a giant warrior god that protects the user in battle.] [It possesses both offense and defense, can awaken exclusive divine weapons, causes widespread destruction, and at its peak can split mountains and shake Tailed Beasts.]
Voices of discussion rose one after another, filled with shock and uproar.
"Susanoo?! The Uchiha actually hid such terrifying power?"
"Gasp—does the Sharingan have no limit? What kind of invincible Martial Soul is this?"
"Heh, it has both offense and defense, and might even awaken divine weapons! Are they supposed to let anyone else live?"
"As expected of the Uchiha Clan's patriarch! He's way too powerful!"
"Wait, does Fugaku Uchiha have something wrong with him? With strength like this, why was he such a coward?!"
"Isn't something wrong with Fugaku Uchiha? He had this kind of strength and still watched the Uchiha Clan get wiped out?"
"I'm a little curious about the First who founded Konoha. How did he subdue such a clan and become Hokage?"
Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City
Xue Ye rose to his feet, stared at the Susanoo on the Sky Screen, then sighed.
"It seems Naruto Continent hides far more secrets than we imagined!"
Qian Renxue looked solemn, her brows furrowed in thought. "The Nine-Tails Incident is nearly over, yet such a twist has emerged. I conclude that there must be another hidden reason behind the Uchiha Clan's destruction."
Xue Ye nodded slightly, his tone full of emotion. "I originally thought the Uchiha Clan must have been incredibly weak to be wiped out by one person. Now, it seems the opposite is true!"
"The younger generation has a genius like Shisui Uchiha! The upper ranks have a powerhouse like Fugaku Uchiha! There are also so many clan members with Three-Tomoe Sharingan in between! The clan is at its peak! How could it possibly be destroyed by one person?!"
"Indeed, Your Majesty! Konoha Village's strongest figures are only the Third Hokage and Fourth Hokage! The Uchiha are so powerful, with experts throughout the clan. Why did they live so miserably?"
Marshal Ge Long was deeply puzzled. In the Heaven Dou Empire, if a family possessed such strength, even the emperor would treat them with courtesy!
"Marshal, you are mistaken."
Qian Renxue's gaze swept over the civil and military officials as she slowly voiced her opinion. "Konoha Village must possess overwhelming strength to keep the Uchiha Clan oppressed all this time and leave their patriarch wavering! The Uchiha elites on the Sky Screen are all proud and arrogant people! Konoha Village must be even more extraordinary!"
"The Crown Prince is wise!" Xue Ye praised her before sweeping his gaze across the crowd.
"Konoha Village possesses such foundations, yet does not know how to cherish them. Allowing the Uchiha Clan and the villagers to become estranged is no different from cutting off one's own arm! In my view, their title as the strongest in the Shinobi World will soon be lost! As for our Heaven Dou Empire, ruler and subjects are united, and we treat powerful figures from all sides well! Sooner or later, we shall stand at the pinnacle of Douluo!"
Qian Renxue found the entire scene amusing. She knew Xue Ye could no longer sit still!
Dugu Bo had defected to Spirit Hall, Yu Zhi was wildly promoting it on the Sky Screen, and the Sky Screen had also shown the brutal scenes of the Uchiha Clan's destruction. It would inevitably stir unrest across the continent!
If this old fox still did not speak up to soothe the people, he would not deserve to be emperor!
She took the opportunity to bow and agree. "Father Emperor is farsighted and wise. Heaven Dou will surely prosper without decline!"
The civil and military officials all echoed in unison, and wave after wave of cheers rang through the great hall.
Inside Spirit Hall's Worship Hall, several Douluo stared intently at the Sky Screen, their expressions varying.
Guang Ling Douluo furrowed his brows tightly and turned toward Qian Daoliu, who sat at the head seat. "Big Brother, can you still estimate Fugaku Uchiha's true strength?"
The other Douluo immediately looked over as well.
At first, everyone could clearly judge that Fugaku's strength was roughly equivalent to a rank ninety-two Titled Douluo. But after he activated Susanoo, the power around him became unfathomable, and they could no longer assess him accurately.
Qian Daoliu's eyes shifted slightly. Borrowing the Angel God Power, he sensed carefully for a moment before slowly speaking. "After activating Susanoo, his ocular power and Chakra fused into a special kind of power. He is now roughly comparable to rank ninety-seven."
This power was entirely different from Soul Power. Even Golden Crocodile Douluo, a rank ninety-eight, could not see through it. Only divine power could glimpse a few clues.
"A full five-rank increase all at once?" Falling Devil Douluo looked shocked and could not help swallowing. "A Titled Douluo's level can rise so wildly? Are we sure this Sharingan isn't a God-Level Martial Soul?"
"Very likely! In the end, we still underestimated the Sharingan's upper limit!"
Guang Ling Douluo narrowed his eyes, looking at the lingering image on the Sky Screen with amazement in his voice.
"It can continuously evolve, and it can even advance into a Mangekyō to awaken Susanoo! This move provides far too great a boost among those of the same level!"
He frowned slightly, his heart filled with doubt and curiosity. "Now I'm truly becoming more curious. Just how strong was that First back then, to forcibly suppress the Uchiha Clan and establish Konoha?!"
Falling Devil Douluo sighed. "That was probably another legend! After all, the First's enemy, Madara Uchiha, could frighten Minato Namikaze into treating him like a great enemy with his name alone! That shows how terrifying his strength was!"
"What I'm curious about now is how that Danzo plans to block this?" Thousand Jun Douluo said with a disdainful smile.
He had disliked Shimura Danzō from the moment the man appeared! He was far too sinister!
Golden Crocodile Douluo crossed his arms, his gaze deep. "And Fugaku is risking his life! Yu Zhi has forced him into a corner! Given the Uchiha Clan's situation, he might as well die fighting! That way, his wife and younger son would still be treated well!"
He did not mention Itachi Uchiha, but every Douluo knew that Itachi would absolutely not survive!
Fugaku might even have wanted to exchange his own death in battle for Itachi to receive a quick death!
Mighty Lion Douluo gently shook his head, his tone carrying a trace of regret. "He is utterly unqualified as a patriarch!"
All the Douluo nodded. Yu Zhi had said it on the Sky Screen—he was too indecisive and only made up his mind at the very end!
Strictly speaking, he was also unqualified as a father!
He had raised his own son into the murderer who destroyed his clan!
This had truly opened their eyes!
