Chapter 177 - Chapter 70: A Calamity

The night wind was cool, slowly dispersing the lingering smoke.

Kamihane surveyed the surroundings, and the Konoha jonin who were swept by his gaze fell silent, not daring to breathe loudly.

After all, this was a ruthless man who had sent their Hokage flying with one punch, and no one wanted to meet those eerie scarlet eyes. Just being stared at made them feel unwell, and they couldn't stop shivering.

Kamihane smiled slightly, seemingly very satisfied with the current outcome.

As the representative of "Yin Release" energy, the chakra of the Mangekyō Sharingan had always given a cold feeling. This dark and ruthless killing intent, the aura that made people feel cold all over, reached its peak after he evolved into the Eternal Mangekyō and merged with Uchiha Mirror's dōjutsu.

But after he had spent ten years merging Hashirama's genes, the cold and piercing aura faded instead, becoming more and more mellow and peaceful. Although it was still cold, it was more of a vast and upright aura like a deep pool and a towering mountain.

According to Kamihane's guess, this was likely related to the fusion of yin and yang, because Madara Uchiha also had a similar aura change.

"Let's go."

Uchiha Nian nodded, about to enter the transmission vortex, when a hurried voice suddenly came from afar:

"Wait!"

Kamihane and Nian turned their heads at the same time, and saw two figures running out of the village entrance, moving quickly, and rushing into the field in a few breaths.

"Tsunade? Jiraiya?"

Nian was a little surprised. Before tonight's action, he had made many assumptions, and even included his own defeat in the expectations, but he did not expect Tsunade to appear.

Tsunade was the first to notice Kamihane. This handsome and mysterious man gave her a sense of familiarity, especially that bright and deep gaze, but she couldn't say where she knew him from.

Her gaze quickly turned to Uchiha Nian, and she asked breathlessly, "Nian, don't be impulsive, I think there must be some misunderstanding here!"

"Impulsive? No, all my actions are based on absolute reason." Nian shook his head.

"But if you really leave..." Tsunade looked around, the scene was scarred and littered with the corpses of more than a dozen jonin, "Then it's no different from truly defecting from the village!"

Nian frowned. "What a joke, it's the village that can't tolerate me! Besides, I fought my way out!"

"Listen, I know you've suffered a lot of grievances, and I will uphold justice for you. We can't let things become more extreme!" Tsunade's expression was sincere, and her eyes were gentle. "If it's really a high-level mistake, then let them apologize to you. If it's a problem with the village, then we will solve it from the root. We must not let this tragedy repeat itself!"

"I'm sorry, I appreciate your kindness, but the pain Konoha gave me, the nearly ten years of cold eyes and loneliness, can't be calmed by a mere 'apology'." Nian shook his head lightly, his eyes indifferent.

"Tsunade, if you must be in league with this group of hypocrites, perhaps next time we meet, we will be enemies facing each other with weapons."

Tsunade took a step forward, her voice unable to hide her sadness. "Please give me some time, I will give you justice. During this period, I will protect you, and I can't let this matter worsen!"

At this time, Kamihane, who had been silent, suddenly pressed Nian's shoulder, threw him into the vortex.

"These words, wait until you become Hokage before you say them, little girl." Kamihane said lightly, without the slightest emotion.

As soon as the words fell, the Karma Seal on his right hand lit up without warning, like a fleeting current when a machine short-circuited. The black mark spread and spread across his palm, quickly moving up along his wrist, and quickly intertwined into ancient and obscure patterns.

Kamihane frowned slightly, obviously encountering something unexpected. The Karma Seal had lost control for the first time. He subconsciously mobilized his vast chakra to suppress it, and it worked immediately. The black patterns dissipated inch by inch, shrinking back into the diamond-shaped mark in his palm.

Because of this momentary interference, the portal closed instantly, and Uchiha Nian disappeared along with it, disappearing before everyone's eyes.

'Is the defrosting speed so fast? Damn Urashiki, he's really restless for even a moment.'

Kamihane snorted coldly in his heart, and a cold arc flashed across the corner of his eye. Amenotokotachi was activated at will, and the physical condition was quietly traced back to its peak.

Ōtsutsuki's Karma Seal did have its unique advantages. Although he had been using Mahoraga to adapt, it had little effect.

To give a simple example, if the difficulty of adapting to someone's Water Release ninjutsu was equivalent to untying a dead knot tied with a thick rope, then the complexity of analyzing the Karma Seal was to untie countless tangled balls of wool, filled with countless slipknots and dead knots.

The most difficult thing was that Kamihane did not know the defrosting progress of the Ōtsutsuki Urashiki data at all, and could only rely on instinct to constantly rewind himself, so that his current physical state was still maintained on the day he defeated Urashiki.

'It seems that the matter of the Uzumaki clan must also be accelerated.'

He calmed his mind and returned his attention from this brief moment of thought to reality, only to suddenly find that the surrounding ninjas were all facing a great enemy, and everyone was sweating profusely.

Tsunade and Jiraiya even retreated a few steps, their faces as pale as paper, as if Mount Tai was collapsing in front of them, and rolling rocks could crush them to dust in an instant.

Kamihane was slightly surprised, but he understood in an instant.

The Karma Seal has two skills in its normal state:

One is "Kaguya-hime-no-Mikoto," which freely travels through different spaces and opens a portal at any time to teleport the target object;

The other is "Sanuki-no-Tarumi," which can completely absorb all chakra-condensed ninjutsu and transform it into chakra stored in the user's body.

In addition, the Karma Seal can unlock power in the form of the Karma Seal being activated. After activation, strange black marks will appear on the right arm and right face, while granting the holder a comprehensive boost in body strength, recovery power, speed, strength... and even obtaining the chakra and aura unique to the Ōtsutsuki clan.

Perhaps it was because of the brief loss of control just now that the Ōtsutsuki's aura and usually extremely restrained power leaked from Kamihane's body, which is why it scared everyone.

The powerful pressure flashed away, and Tsunade regained her breath. She stared at the young man in front of her, and that familiar feeling seemed to be getting stronger and stronger.

Kamihane touched his chin. The interruption of the teleportation had made him think a lot for a moment, but now he still had to leave Konohagakure. For some reason, he was unwilling to open it a second time in front of everyone.

Like breeds like, and the ill-disposed are alike.

Madara Uchiha in the original timeline, when facing the Five Kage, because the complete Susanoo was interfered with by the dissolution of the Edo Tensei, gave it up halfway, and he seemed like a shy old maiden, clearly having the strength, but refusing to use it a second time.

The dimensions and time and space intersected, and the two's emotions were exactly the same.

"I remember, could it be that you are..." Tsunade's face turned pale, and a trace of fear flashed across her pupils, "It's... the murderer who killed my second grandfather, Uchiha Kamihane!"

"Your intuition is very keen, you actually guessed it all at once." Kamihane smiled at her, "I said, if you want to avenge me, you are always welcome!"

After speaking, he immediately leaped lightly into the air, a circle of ripples scattered from his toes, the wind drums, and the whole person turned into a black shadow, shooting straight into the night sky and disappearing.

"Damn it!" Tsunade clenched her fists. Because she was too angry, the fear in her eyes disappeared, "Not only are you the murderer, but now you've also abducted my comrade! Betting my life, I will never let you go!"

So, under everyone's stunned gaze, she actually... chased after the direction Kamihane left.

Even if the jonin present tried to stop her, they could not shake her belief in the slightest.

"Tsunade..."

"Tsunade! You..." Jiraiya stretched out his hand, but could not catch her determination, his face suddenly tangled, obviously caught in a struggle in his heart.

After hesitating for a moment, his face turned fierce, as if he had made some determination, and he stomped his foot hard, chasing after Tsunade.

A sigh was left in the air:

"Alas, a calamity!"
