Power of the Gods

The Hokage faction and Cloud Village were both greatly shocked.

The Third Hokage did not know why Uchiha Natsuki had appeared at this moment.

But he would never allow Konoha and Cloud Village to go to war again.

Yugito frowned. She had not expected Uchiha Natsuki to be such an unexpected variable. The Hokage was clearly pressuring the Hyuga Clan.

They had been about to stop while they were ahead and renegotiate afterward, yet Natsuki had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Yugito was still putting on an act.

"Uchiha Natsuki, one of Cloud Village's people died tragically at the Hyuga Clan's hands, yet you come here spouting such sarcastic nonsense."

But Natsuki did not take the bait at all.

"Stop acting. You just sent a disposable man here to die and test Konoha Village's attitude. What are you pretending for?"

"You have your answer now. Konoha Village does not dare start war again."

Natsuki raised a finger.

"Unfortunately, you got one thing wrong."

Everyone present wore grim expressions. Knowing something was one thing, but tearing away all pretenses and stating the truth outright was another.

Yugito dropped her act as well and said with a grim expression,

"What did we get wrong?"

Natsuki walked over, clenching his fist.

"I killed that idiot with one punch. It had absolutely nothing to do with the Hyuga Clan."

"You!"

Yugito was both shocked and furious!

"Hey, don't ask. I just didn't like the sight of him. I killed him, so what?"

Natsuki provoked her.

"If you don't like it, come kill me."

Yugito shouted,

"Killer B!"

"Liger Bomb!" Killer B, already surrounded by a Tailed Beast Cloak, had long since been unable to hold himself back.

Lightning Chakra condensed around his entire body as he charged forward at high speed.

Stones flew from the ground, and the fine stone slabs cracked beneath his feet.

"Natsuki!" Hizashi was extremely anxious. He had not expected things to change so quickly, with fighting suddenly breaking out.

Fugaku, however, stood with his arms folded, seeming to have great confidence in Natsuki.

In the blink of an eye.

Boom! Bang!

A tremendous rumbling sound rang out, and dust billowed across the entire area.

A golden giant rose from the ground!

Compared to the first-stage skeletal form, this Susanoo was covered in meridians and flesh.

It was enveloped in cloak-like Chakra.

The overflowing Chakra was like a storm, battering everyone's hearts.

Killer B, meanwhile, was pressed into the ground like an insect.

"Susanoo!!!"

Everyone present cried out in shock.

The Third Hokage's expression turned even grimmer. He had not expected Natsuki to possess a Mangekyo Sharingan as well.

Yugito's heart lurched violently. Was this the Uchiha Clan's Power of the Gods!?

"Damn it! Roar!"

Killer B was no pushover. Though he was pinned down, he was unwilling to admit defeat.

As he continued struggling, his body underwent obvious changes.

Tailed Beast Chakra erupted wildly from behind him, forming dark red tails of Tailed Beast Chakra.

Partial Tailed Beast Transformation!

Natsuki's Susanoo's hand was just about to be lifted.

Boom! Another purple-black Susanoo appeared and slammed down with another palm.

Fugaku had manifested his Susanoo as well!

With two Susanoo appearing at once, the surrounding ninja could not even remain standing. They were all blown away by the fierce pressure.

Empowered by the Power of the Gods, the still-young Killer B was instantly crushed back down.

The sound of bones breaking rang out, and Killer B screamed.

He fainted, and the Tailed Beast Cloak around him slowly faded away.

Yugito was terrified!

Was Susanoo really this powerful? Even the Eight-Tails' Partial Tailed Beast Transformation could not withstand it?

Natsuki grabbed the unconscious Killer B.

"If you want war, then I'll crush Killer B to death right now. Yugito, you choose."

With Killer B's life in Natsuki's hands, Yugito could not act rashly.

"Wait! Uchiha Natsuki, what do you want!"

Natsuki controlled his overwhelmingly imposing Susanoo as it stood in the middle of the field.

"Nothing much. Wasn't today's incident a trap you set yourselves? What, you can't accept being caught in your own trap?"

Natsuki's face was full of mockery, yet Yugito could not lash out.

Aside from Killer B being in his hands, she truly had not expected the Uchiha Clan to have two Mangekyo Sharingan.

By comparison, the Hokage faction was like a bunch of turtles hiding in their shells. They had clearly seen through Cloud Village's scheme.

Yet they had sold out the Hyuga Clan and forced them to resolve the matter.

As the massive disturbance caused by the Susanoo continued, more and more ninja arrived.

Yugito looked dejected. This time, Cloud Village had truly suffered a crushing defeat.

She gritted her teeth. "Cloud Village has lost this time. Please spare Killer B."

Natsuki nodded to Fugaku, then dispelled his Susanoo.

He tossed the grievously wounded Killer B directly toward Konoha's side.

"I am very dissatisfied with this peace treaty. Let's renegotiate the terms."

Natsuki was talking nonsense. He had no idea what the peace treaty contained, but that did not stop him from doing Konoha a convenient favor.

As for why he was doing Konoha a favor—

"Third Hokage, the area around our Clan Compound is very safe. You won't need to protect us in the future. Otherwise, I might accidentally injure companions from the same village."

Natsuki emphasized the words "companions from the same village."

The Third Hokage stepped forward at this point.

"The Uchiha Clan Compound was under construction before. To guard against petty criminals, we arranged many Anbu to protect it."

The Third Hokage paused and glanced at Killer B beside him.

"Since the Uchiha Clan Compound has now been completed, we will naturally withdraw them."

Natsuki nodded, then turned to Hiashi.

"Lord Hiashi, you are welcome to visit our new Clan Compound whenever you have time."

Hiashi first gave the Third Hokage a cold look, then replied with complete sincerity,

"Once I have dealt with my clan's affairs, I will certainly pay you a visit."

"Let's go!" Natsuki called to Fugaku and the other Uchiha Clan Members before turning to leave.

Seeing the way the Hyuga Clan looked at them, the Third Hokage knew they had been schemed against by the Uchiha Clan again.

But Cloud Village really had delivered benefits to them.

Thus, shamelessly enduring the Hyuga Clan's stares, he said to Yugito,

"Yugito, there are some errors in our peace treaty. I believe we need to discuss it again."

After Fugaku and Natsuki returned to the Clan Compound, Fugaku became unsteady on his feet. Natsuki hurriedly supported him.

"Clan Head, you did not need to make a move. I could have dealt with Cloud Village alone."

Fugaku covered his eyes and slowly sat down.

"You were too reckless this time. If Yugito had attacked as well, you would not have been able to hold off two Jinchuriki."

"I had no choice but to help you quickly bring Killer B under control."

Fugaku panted heavily. His eyes ached faintly, and his line of sight had become even blurrier.

Seeing how much Fugaku had been thinking of him, Natsuki felt ashamed.

His confidence in provoking Cloud Village came from the fact that, with the combined ocular power of several Mangekyo Sharingan, his ocular power far surpassed that of an ordinary Mangekyo.

Obtaining the Eternal Mangekyo was only a matter of time.

The second-stage Susanoo alone had already put Killer B at a disadvantage. If necessary, he would have directly activated the third-stage Susanoo.

No one present could have fought him. By now, he was already the strongest person in all of Konoha.

The Uchiha Clan no longer needed to watch Konoha's face.

"Clan Head, has your vision already become blurry?"
