Renya didn't pause for even a moment after killing one person.
His figure vanished in an instant and appeared without warning before an Uchiha Hawk Faction member whose face was full of panic.
"Pssht—"
The katana pierced through his chest at extreme speed. His face was filled with unwillingness as the scarlet in his eyes slowly faded away.
Renya reversed his grip and pulled out the katana. The corpse crashed heavily to the ground, kicking up dust.
"Bastard!"
A fleeting trace of panic flashed in the leader of the Hawk Faction's eyes, but he immediately shouted loudly to the companions around him.
"Get out of the kunai's range, now!"
Hearing this, everyone reacted and quickly moved away from the kunai on the ground.
But during the process, one more person was cut down by Renya.
In just moments, three people were dead.
Those who escaped the range of the Flying Thunder God kunai all stared at Renya with furious eyes.
"Damn you! I'll make you pay in blood!"
Getting away from the kunai on the ground meant Renya could no longer use the Flying Thunder God.
Now they no longer had to worry about him suddenly appearing.
"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"
"Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame!"
Everyone simultaneously unleashed ninjutsu, attacking Renya in the distance.
In an instant, countless powerful Fire Style techniques surged toward him.
Renya's figure disappeared again and reappeared beside Danzō.
He had already marked several companions with Flying Thunder God seals.
"Can you handle it?" Shimura Danzō asked.
If Renya said he couldn't, he would send the entire Anbu in.
"No problem." Renya smiled indifferently.
"Renya, be careful," Hiruzen said softly.
Facing over a dozen elite Uchiha jōnin alone—anyone would feel immense pressure.
Especially now that his Flying Thunder God had been discovered.
Using it again to kill an enemy would be very unlikely.
Uchiha jōnin weren't idiots—they wouldn't just stand there waiting to die.
...
What awaited next was definitely a brutal battle.
As soon as Renya showed any sign of faltering, he would immediately order the Anbu forward to assist.
"Got it."
When the Fire Style ninjutsu dissipated, Renya reappeared in his original position.
The group of Uchiha were numb when they saw Renya return again.
Flying Thunder God was simply an overpowered technique!
They unleashed ninjutsu—he used Flying Thunder God to escape.
When the ninjutsu ended—he used Flying Thunder God to return.
How were they supposed to fight that?
Close combat? The ground was littered with Flying Thunder God kunai. Rushing in was simply suicide.
"Damn it, are you just going to hide like a turtle?"
The Hawk Faction leader's face was dark.
He was utterly disgusted by this hit-and-run style of fighting. The other Uchiha all wore constipated expressions.
Flying Thunder God was just too cursed.
That inherently evil Senju Tobirama—of course he would develop this kind of overpowered ninjutsu.
No wonder Lord Izuna fell to him back then!
"Where's all that arrogance you had before?" Renya looked at the gloomy Uchiha with a playful expression.
Seeing them furious yet helpless—
Truly wonderful!
"You bastard, if you've got any guts, stop using Flying Thunder God! Fight us fair and square!"
The Hawk Faction leader was completely out of ideas and could only try goading Renya.
As soon as he said it, everyone present had strange expressions.
Dozens of people ganging up on one person, getting mentally broken, and then daring to talk about a 'fair fight'?
This was the Uchiha clan's sense of dignity?
What shameful behavior!
Uchiha Tanaka could feel Danzō's disdainful gaze from afar and wished he could crawl into a hole.
The Hawk Faction couldn't handle Renya alone, yet they dared dream of staging a coup?
These people simply had no awareness of how much the village had changed.
Still living in the past.
If he had really followed the Hawk Faction and started a coup, all of them attempting rebellion would have died that very night.
And with their deaths, the clan would be left with nothing but the old, weak, women, and children.
Uchiha would be doomed.
It was precisely because he knew how terrifying the village was that he had never considered rebellion.
Perhaps when he had first become clan head, Tanaka had toyed with the idea.
But after witnessing Senju Tobirama's methods, he gave up entirely.
Without someone as powerful as Uchiha Madara, going against the village—
no chance.
Facing the Hawk Faction leader's unreasonable demand, Renya did not refuse. Instead, he revealed a bright smile.
"Sure. I won't use Flying Thunder God."
Everyone froze instantly. Renya… actually agreed?!
"Renya!" Hiruzen looked anxious.
Without Flying Thunder God, how could he face dozens of elite Uchiha jōnin?
He had known Renya since childhood—he believed he knew all of Renya's trump cards.
Without the Flying Thunder God, the poison on his blade alone wasn't enough to fight so many!
Uchiha Kagami also showed a worried expression.
Only Shimura Danzō looked expectant. This guy was finally going to use his real trump card.
He knew Renya's personality very well—Renya would never do something he wasn't confident in.
"Hokage-sama, should we intervene to protect Renya-dono?" the white-haired Anbu captain asked respectfully, holding a short blade.
"No need." Danzō lightly shook his head.
Since Renya dared to do this, he definitely had a powerful trump card!
The white-haired Anbu captain nodded and stepped back into formation again, his eyes behind the mask staring intently at Renya.
The most dumbfounded person in the entire field was the Hawk Faction leader.
His words had been spoken purely out of frustration.
He never thought Renya would actually agree not to use Flying Thunder God!
You could say it was a lucky fluke.
"Taptaptap—"
Renya walked out of the area covered by the Flying Thunder God kunai at an unhurried pace and approached the group of Uchiha Hawk Faction members.
"This distance should be fine, right?" Renya still wore a smile.
But in the eyes of the Hawk Faction members, that smile looked extremely eerie.
They suddenly realized a problem.
What was Renya's confidence to fight without Flying Thunder God?
They were dozens of elite jōnin!
A formation like that could even take on a Kage-level ninja!
Even if Renya was Kage-level, he couldn't just shrug them off.
Yet he agreed without hesitation not to use Flying Thunder God.
If he wasn't an idiot…
That meant he had a ninjutsu even stronger than Flying Thunder God.
Realizing this, the Uchiha Hawk Faction stared at Renya with heightened alertness.
Just by standing there, he exuded an overwhelming sense of pressure!
Uchiha Tanaka looked shocked.
Did this kid really have a ninjutsu stronger than Flying Thunder God?
Or perhaps it wasn't ninjutsu…
Suddenly, Tanaka thought of something and stared at Renya in disbelief.
Could this guy… no way, right?
Mangekyō Sharingan!
The final stage evolved from the three-tomoe Sharingan!
Impossible—absolutely impossible!
Tanaka shook his head violently.
This kid couldn't possibly have awakened the Mangekyō!
The conditions were extremely harsh.
Over the years, only Lord Madara and Lord Izuna had awakened those eyes.
He didn't believe this kid could awaken the Mangekyō.
But looking at Renya's confident expression, he once again hesitated.
