The Black Long Swords swept out like enormous black ribbons, slicing easily through the churning sea ahead.
The flat of each blade struck the water, raising huge waves that surged forward.
The retreating Ninja had no time to react before the waves swallowed them and swept them toward Land of Whirlpools Island.
In the distance, figures appeared along the Coastline one after another. These hastily assembled Ninja all stared at Fugaku's Black Susanoo.
Many of them had already read reports from spies hidden in Konoha describing two battles in which Fugaku had used his Mangekyo Sharingan.
But reading a report was nothing like seeing it for themselves. No account could convey such overwhelming power.
Fugaku had no intention of stopping. He continued toward the Land of Whirlpools, his two Black Long Swords striking in succession.
Many Allied Forces Ninja who failed to dodge in time died beneath the blades. Even those outside their reach were caught by the waves.
Only the Ninja who had made it ashore escaped. The Allied Forces Ninja on the beach watched the scene unfold.
A Ninja who appeared to be their leader shouted, "Cancel the order to kill Fugaku Uchiha! Don't engage him! Everyone retreat and get away from him!"
The figures scattered toward shore as though they had heard the sweetest music, no longer caring what Fugaku did.
Fugaku did not pursue them. The Allied Forces Ninja had all retreated, and chasing them would only waste time.
He swept his gaze over the Land of Whirlpools again. Not a single Ninja remained in sight. It seemed they had all fled deeper into the island.
Fugaku turned and swung the black blades, swiftly smashing all three Seagoing Ships to pieces. Only then did he release his Susanoo and head in the direction Orochimaru had gone.
