Chapter 418: Susanoo
Ever since he had passed the message to Kakashi, Ishiro had been checking on Sōkai's condition.
Sōkai's body was not seriously harmed. He had just been unable to withstand the immense pupil power, and coupled with his overly emotional state before, he had fallen into a coma. After his Sharingan was sealed by Ishiro, he had slowly recovered. After all, he had not actually used his Mangekyō.
In fact, with just a little rest, his condition would soon be even better than before.
So, Ishiro undid the seal on his eyes.
However, he still warned, "At most, you can use the three-tomoe Sharingan. You must not be in a hurry to use the power of the Mangekyō. You are still too young. If you use it too much, you won't be able to bear the burden of the Kekkei Genkai, and you will die."
Sōkai nodded. His emotions were no longer as intense as when he had first awakened his Mangekyō.
Ishiro said, "Shisui Uchiha is just outside. I'm going to make a move on him. Do you agree?"
Sōkai glanced at Ishiro, touched his own eyes, and said, "Master Ishiro, I want to wait until I have the strength to kill him myself."
Ishiro said, "That's fine too. Then I'll just drive him away for now."
After speaking, he pointed to the three people lying next to Sōkai. "Help me take care of these three. I'm taking this little girl back to the village."
Only then did Sōkai notice that there were three other people beside him. He sat up and sized up the three civilians who had no chakra. Then he looked at Ishiro with a strange expression. "Master Ishiro, this little girl... you're not going to kidnap her just like you did with me, are you?"
"Ahem! What do you mean, kidnap? It's relocation, from Konoha to Iwagakure. Look at how dangerous Konoha is. I'm doing this for their own good." After speaking, unable to bear Sōkai's gaze, Ishiro went out.
He was in a good mood now. The fact that Sōkai could still joke meant that the shock of awakening the Mangekyō had not changed his personality.
With his eyes closed, Ishiro formed a one-handed seal, and countless streams of porcelain mud appeared all around.
After awakening his Mangekyō, Sōkai's insight had become much sharper. He noticed that the way Ishiro was casting Porcelain Release this time was different from when he had been in front of them a while ago; he was even feigning the gesture of maintaining a hand seal. Sōkai knew that his teacher was definitely setting a trap for someone again. He got up, took out a soldier pill and ate it, and began to recover his stamina and mental energy.
Ishiro didn't know that his little trick had already been discovered by his disciple.
He was controlling the porcelain mud to continuously pour out of the room, enveloping Shisui from all sides.
Shisui first used a Fire Release jutsu, knocking down a good deal of the porcelain mud. But he soon discovered that what he had shot down was not even a drop in the bucket. And because of the delay from casting the Great Fireball, the area around him was already filled with mud.
"Not good." Looking at the large amount of mud that had completely enclosed him a dozen meters away, Shisui knew he was in trouble.
He immediately used his Body Flicker Technique, rushed to the nearest point of the encirclement, and slashed down with his sword. Unfortunately, the porcelain was currently in a mud-like state. Although he easily cut it open, it was useless. Before he could make a second slash, the surrounding mud had already filled the gap.
Shisui was a little anxious. He quickly slashed a few more times, but it was still useless. He had no choice but to retreat to his original position.
What he didn't understand was why this porcelain mud was only staying a dozen meters away from him, surrounding him but not attacking.
What he didn't know was that while he was struggling in vain, Ishiro had already thickened the porcelain mud surrounding him to a depth of over ten meters, pushing away many of the surrounding houses.
Ishiro was now flying in mid-air with Sōkai, watching this ever-growing mud ball from a distance.
Sōkai asked with confusion, "Master Ishiro, are you squeezing him to death inside? Or did you seal him? Why create such a large-scale Porcelain Release?"
Ishiro smiled. "I haven't even made a move yet. This is just preparation, just in case."
Sōkai didn't understand.
But Shisui below seemed to. Although he didn't know what Ishiro was doing, the sense of crisis in his heart was growing stronger and stronger.
Knowing that he could not wait any longer, his eyes once again turned into the Mangekyō Sharingan. Then, a line of blood-tears flowed from both eyes.
And in the eyes of Ishiro and Sōkai, the mud ball below, which had originally reached a diameter of several dozen meters, suddenly expanded, instantly reaching nearly a hundred meters.
Sōkai was startled and looked at Ishiro, not knowing if his teacher was using some kind of grand move again.
But Ishiro just smiled faintly. After so many years of being a transmigrator, I finally get to see a Gundam.
With one hand, Ishiro feigned a hand seal to maintain his Porcelain Release. With the other, he used a one-handed seal to create an earth clone. After the earth clone appeared, it flew to the side of the nearly hundred-meter mud ball and then used the Super Light-Weight Rock Technique on it.
At the same time, Ishiro controlled this huge mud ball and threw it fiercely into the distance.
Under the effect of the Super Light-Weight Rock Technique, the huge mud ball was accurately thrown by Ishiro towards the army led by Shikaku Nara, which had already moved a short distance away from Konoha.
When the mud ball flew into the midst of the Konoha army, Ishiro dispelled his earth clone, and the mud ball also returned to its original weight.
Boom! The giant mud ball directly crushed a large swath of Konoha ninja.
And it wasn't over. Perhaps the Shisui who had activated his Susanoo had finally recovered. He began to swing his arms around, trying to shake off the mud. This, in turn, brought disaster upon the Konoha army. Many ninja who were close by were easily slapped to death by the giant Susanoo.
The commotion from this move was huge, visible to the entire village of Konoha. Everyone was guessing whether the Tsuchikage had developed some new technique. Looking at that mud ball, its shape slowly changing, beginning to look like a giant humanoid puppet, this speculation became even more believable.
Even Shikaku Nara, a man of superior intellect, had never seen—no, had never heard of—an Iwagakure secret technique that involved putting a mud casing on a Susanoo. He just found it strange that this "puppet" seemed to have a mind of its own, and did not seem to be under the Tsuchikage's control. This was because, apart from the initial chaotic attacks that had killed many ninja, this mud giant had not killed anyone else, nor had it pursued the scattered Konoha ninja. And its attacks seemed to be indiscriminate; just now, Shikaku had seen this mud giant even attack the Kazekage. It just happened that the Kazekage had dodged quickly, and it had missed.
Shisui's struggle was effective. The mud on his Susanoo was gradually shaken off, slowly revealing a bit of the green giant inside.
This time, Shikaku finally recognized it. He cried out in disbelief, "Susanoo? It's the ultimate pupil technique of the Uchiha clan, the Susanoo!"
"Why is there a Susanoo inside the Tsuchikage's ultimate move? No, the existence inside is not on the Tsuchikage's side."
"Could it be... Shisui?" Shikaku knew that Shisui had been playing hide-and-seek with Ishiro before. And Shisui was a famed genius of the Uchiha clan. So, if he had really awakened the Mangekyō, Shikaku could still accept it.
Thinking of this, he said to his partner, Inoichi Yamanaka, "Inoichi, it might be Shisui inside. Contact him. Tell him not to move randomly. We'll help him clean off the Tsuchikage's mud."
Inoichi nodded, then used the Yamanaka clan's secret technique to contact Shisui inside.
Soon, the mud giant fell silent.
Shikaku commanded the Konoha army to use Water Release together, washing away Ishiro's mud.
Ishiro sighed. His body descended, and he took Sōkai and the other four and slipped back into Konoha.
Shisui wanted to continue pursuing him but was stopped by Shikaku.
"Shisui, deal with the Kazekage first." Shikaku could see that although Shisui's strength had greatly increased for some reason, and he could now exert Kage-level power, he was still far from being a match for a schemer like Ishiro.
Rather than playing hide-and-seek with him again, it was better for everyone to join forces and drive off Rasa first.
At this moment, Rasa's mood was neither good nor bad. Originally, he had been at a disadvantage, fighting against the Konoha army and a Seven-Tails Jinchuriki by himself. That Konoha commander's ability was too strong; coordinating with a Jinchuriki, he had managed to suppress him. Rasa had been forced to continuously retreat, using his agility to mitigate the disadvantage. This was also why Ishiro had thrown the Susanoo in this direction.
Originally, Rasa could only hope that Ryosuke, who had been separated from him, could quickly come to support him. But Ishiro's mud-cased Susanoo had brought him a turning point.
While the Konoha army was dealing with the mud giant, Rasa suddenly unleashed his power and suppressed the Seven-Tails, which was still unable to skillfully use its Tailed Beast power. Under Rasa's continuous attacks, disregarding his chakra consumption, by the time Shisui and Shikaku's army had recovered, he had already sealed the Seven-Tails along with its Jinchuriki.
Shisui, knowing the situation was urgent and disregarding the consumption of his pupil power, controlled his Susanoo and charged at Rasa. He had already seen the bodies of the Konoha ninja near his Susanoo. He didn't need to guess to know that they had died because of him.
Filled with guilt, Shisui's attacks on Rasa were incredibly fierce, each move fatal. He completely disregarded the consumption of his pupil power, much in the style of the "second pillar." For a time, he actually suppressed Rasa to the point where he had no strength to fight back.
...
At this time, near the Uchiha clan compound, the killing intent that Danzō, who had been in a standoff, could not suppress, was generated.
The moment he saw Shisui's Susanoo, the panic and greed in his heart could not be concealed and were all revealed in his expression and emotions.
This scene, in the eyes of the Uchiha clan, was incredibly jarring. This old thing is still coveting our clan's Kekkei Genkai.
The already tense atmosphere was further intensified by a layer of killing intent.
It's unknown if it was intentional, but a certain radical Uchiha suddenly threw a kunai at the nearest Root ninja.
This scene was like a spark falling on oil, instantly igniting a great fire.
To Danzō's disbelief, and Fugaku's bewilderment, the two sides quickly broke into a fight.
If Danzō had stopped his subordinates at this time, before blood was drawn, there was still a great hope of controlling the situation. But Danzō did not. Enraged by the Uchiha clan's bold move, he chose to kill someone to establish his authority.
He launched a Wind Release at the Uchiha jonin who had attacked first.
Danzō's action was tantamount to helping the already conflicted Fugaku Uchiha make up his mind.
Fugaku intercepted Danzō's attack for that clansman, then looked at Danzō with a face full of anger.
Seeing that the leaders of both sides had made a move, the Root members and the Uchiha clansmen no longer held back and began to attack with all their might. A life-and-death battle immediately broke out.
