"Damn it, what does B think he's doing?"
"He's completely off his rocker—he's trying to take us all down with him!"
"It's too late now… Even if we try to escape, it's already over…"
Witnessing the full-powered Tailed Beast Ball released by Eight-Tails Gyuki, the ninjas of Kumogakure panicked.
With the destructive power of that attack—Mirai Uchiha might survive, but they definitely wouldn't.
But at this point, an enraged B had stopped thinking clearly. With a single thought, he launched the massive Tailed Beast Ball straight forward.
Facing the devastating assault head-on, Mirai Uchiha brought his hands together in a flash.
[Wood Release: Wood Human Technique!]
A gigantic wooden giant instantly emerged, extending its huge hand and catching the Tailed Beast Ball fired by Eight-Tails.
Then, with a brutal shove, the Tailed Beast Ball exploded right on Eight-Tails' body.
Boom!
As the explosion roared, the wooden giant extended its thick arms, throwing punch after punch at Eight-Tails.
Crash!
Crash!
Crash!
Eight-Tails howled in pain, completely unable to fight back.
Before Mirai Uchiha's wooden giant, it was as helpless as an unarmed child.
The sight left the ninjas of Kumogakure frozen in place, their mouths instinctively agape.
"I must be seeing things... It looks like Eight-Tails is getting beaten up badly."
"I saw it too. How could Mirai Uchiha possibly wield such immense power besides Susanoo?"
"Damn it, just how many hidden trump cards does this guy have?"
"Why does even a Tailed Beast seem so weak in front of Mirai Uchiha?"
The image of Mirai Uchiha controlling the wooden giant and mercilessly pummeling Eight-Tails was simply too shocking. Every ninja from Kumogakure simultaneously thought of one word:
Formidable!
Fortunately for them, they had managed to survive.
Perched atop the wooden giant, Mirai Uchiha folded his arms across his chest, his eyes filled with irritation.
You wanna fight? Fine. But why the hell did you fire a Tailed Beast Ball?
Those Kumogakure ninjas were experience he had his eye on. If they got blown up by your damn ball, how am I supposed to get my reward?
He definitely deserved one hell of a beatdown!
With this mindset, rather than using Dojutsu to instantly kill Gyuki, Mirai decided instead to use the wooden giant to continuously batter the beast.
After hitting it around for a while, he found it insufficiently satisfying and immediately covered the wooden giant with a layer of Susanoo.
[Majestic Attire: Susanoo - Wood Human Technique!]
Now boosted by Susanoo, the hundreds-of-meters-tall wooden giant became even more terrifying in its assault.
In no time at all, it left Gyuki battered and barely clinging to life.
Looking at the now defenseless Gyuki, Mirai Uchiha let out a cold snort and said, "Gyuki, you're too dangerous. You must be sealed away!"
Hearing Mirai Uchiha's words, Gyuki almost choked on his own breath.
Throughout the entire fight, he was clearly the one who had been utterly crushed, yet the other party still had the audacity to call him dangerous?
If he was considered dangerous, then how should we describe someone wielding both Susanoo and the Wooden Giant Technique?
How could you utter such utter shamelessness?!
Damned brat!!!
Gyuki grumbled helplessly in his mind while Mirai Uchiha activated the Rinnegan's dojutsu to suppress and begin sealing him right there.
Before long, Gyuki was sealed inside Mirai Uchiha's body.
[Ding! Congratulations, Master! Successfully acquired reward: Lariat]
Hearing the system's prompt in his mind, Mirai Uchiha nodded satisfactorily.
B was highly skilled in sword techniques; receiving such a reward was far more valuable to him than gaining an attribute point or a new ninjutsu.
After dealing with the Eight-Tails, Mirai Uchiha turned his gaze back toward the Kumogakure ninja.
At this moment, the Cloud ninja had already lost all their previous arrogance. As Mirai Uchiha's eyes swept over them, they instinctively took several steps backward.
Meanwhile, the Two-Tails Matatabi immediately retreated into Yugito Nii's original body, refusing to respond no matter how much Yugito called out to her.
Looking down at the Cloud ninja below, Mirai Uchiha spoke coolly, "Now you should understand, right?"
"Your path to destruction is shorter than you could ever imagine."
Fear spread through the ranks of Kumogakure ninja.
They had never imagined that even though their enemy was just one person, he could create such crushing pressure.
The strongest A and B were already dead. Who else could possibly stop Mirai Uchiha?
Just then, Mabui rushed out from the crowd.
As the secretary who assisted the Fourth Raikage in managing all Cloud affairs, she had to step forward at a time like this.
"Mirai Uchiha, why have you gone this far? Even the Raikage has died by your hands. Isn't that enough?"
Upon hearing Mabui's words, Mirai Uchiha replied expressionlessly, "It was your Kumogakure that attacked Konoha first. I'm simply avenging those comrades who died by your hands."
Mabui shouted, "We waged war solely for peace. Our original intentions were the same as yours."
"You also want to unify the ninja world for peace, right?"
"We are willing to negotiate peace. Please stop these killings—they will only prolong hatred."
Hearing this, Mirai Uchiha sneered, "You aren't really willing to negotiate peace. You're simply afraid."
"If you chose slaughter, then you should be prepared to face death as well."
Hearing Mirai Uchiha's response, Mabui pleaded once again, saying, "Hatred continues because neither side is willing to be the first to offer forgiveness."
"Only when everyone chooses peace with a tolerant and open heart—by making peace with their enemies—can true peace arrive!"
Mabui continued her impassioned plea without missing a beat.
Mirai patiently waited until she finished before slowly replying, "What you said makes sense."
Upon hearing this, joy appeared on Mabui's face. "Does that mean you agree to negotiate peace with us?"
Yet before her smile could fully bloom, Mirai Uchiha's following words made her feel as if plunged into icy cold water.
Mirai shook his head calmly and said, "No, I will destroy the Cloud."
"After that, you can come back and discuss with me whether to seek revenge or not."
In his eyes, those from the Cloud were little more than tools for gaining strength.
Considering the village's actions alone, Mirai had no intention of letting them off lightly.
Kidnapping Kushina Uzumaki, ambushing Sunagakure, launching unprovoked attacks on Iwagakure, and brutally taking the Byakugan from Hizashi Hyuga...
Given any opportunity, they never failed to cause chaos throughout the ninja world.
If such a village wasn't given a punishment it would never forget, Mirai believed it would continue causing trouble in the future.
Plus, he disliked what Mabui had said—it was too biased.
You killed my comrades, and then expect me to give up my hatred for peace?
What if I kill your comrades first—then you try holding onto that same idea of letting go of hatred?
