Homura was a politician, and even a bit of a coward, but he knew that this time he had to step up and face the Third Mizukage.
If he didn't go up this time, it was hard to guarantee that no one would settle accounts with him for this matter later. At that time, not to mention his Hokage advisor position, even his clan might be affected by his actions.
To put it bluntly, if he died on the front line, then even if Konoha's side collapsed in this war, it would be a case of debts dying with the person. But if he did nothing, he would have to bear all the responsibility.
Did he really think that being a commander meant he didn't have to bear any responsibility?
In an instant, Homura made the choice that was most suitable for him.
Meanwhile, Fugaku was distraught after hearing Homura's order. Not just Fugaku, but even the Uchiha who had come with Fugaku were in an uproar.
"Young clan head, what should we do? That's a Tailed Beast!"
They looked at the Six-Tails in the distance, which was like a small mountain. For some reason, this Tailed Beast had run to the Land of Fire. And, it seemed that although it was attacking indiscriminately, its main targets were Konoha ninjas.
"This is a request from above, can we refuse?" Fugaku gritted his teeth.
Of course, he wanted to refuse, but what could he do?
He knew that many people might die facing the Six-Tails this time, but what could he do?
If he refused, he would lose the qualification to compete with Kazuki, and all his efforts over the past year would be in vain.
Moreover, even the Uchiha clan and his own father would be humiliated because of this, which was something he could not accept. Therefore, even if he clearly knew he couldn't win, he had to go.
Fugaku's words made everyone else fall silent. Indeed, at this time, they could not be deserters. The Uchiha clan could not accept a traitor from their own clan.
...
"Has the Six-Tails appeared?"
Kazuki sensed its aura the moment the Six-Tails appeared, his eyes flickering slightly. It seemed Madara wanted to switch places.
After a brief thought, a cold expression appeared on Kazuki's face. Since Madara wanted to cause trouble, he would make things even bigger.
He looked at the Three-Tails, which had already consumed a lot of Chakra. He had no intention of returning the Three-Tails. However, since he had come to Kirigakure, he had to create some trouble for Madara, such as killing the Three-Tails.
The revival of a Tailed Beast takes a lot of time, which would save Madara from reviving the Ten-Tails, and this could create time for Kazuki to grow.
Amaterasu!"
This was the first time Kazuki had used Amaterasu. Kazuki was now using Amaterasu to burn the Three-Tails. Of course, he mainly placed the Amaterasu flames on the Three-Tails' back and tail.
The burning of Amaterasu made the Three-Tails feel intense pain. However, Kazuki's ocular power was not something the Three-Tails could break free from.
Even with the Amaterasu flames burning on its body, Kazuki still controlled the Three-Tails to continue rolling. Soon, more than half of Kirigakure was engulfed in Amaterasu flames.
He wanted to use Amaterasu to kill the Three-Tails, and he also hoped that the Three-Tails and the Amaterasu flames could cause more damage to Kirigakure.
After doing all this, his figure flashed and disappeared in front of Kirigakure.
He arrived beside Mikoto through the Flying Thunder God Mark, looking at the dozen or so Uzumaki clan members they had rescued. There were men and women, but none of them were particularly old.
It's just that these people's conditions were not particularly good, but they were not in life-threatening danger. After returning to Konoha, they would probably need a long time to recover, and they might not even have the possibility of becoming ninjaa in this life.
But as long as they were alive, it was good. If they could have descendants in the future, they could bring a lot of Uzumaki bloodline to Konoha, allowing the Uzumaki clan to be passed down in Konoha.
"They need to receive treatment as soon as possible." Mikoto said to Kazuki when she saw him.
"Okay. I'll send them back to Konoha now, where they can receive the best care."
"The entire Kirigakure is already in chaos, and we can't stay in the Land of Water anymore. They can't deal with me, but they will definitely target you guys."
Kazuki then looked at the Uzumaki clan members not far away and said, "Also, you will need to adjust yourselves afterward. They have experienced many battles over the past year, and they also need some rest."
"Okay."
Hearing Kazuki's words, the others had no intention of refusing. They were indeed psychologically exhausted.
Here, it was either training or killing, and they all ate seafood. This kind of life was quite good for a day or two, and one or two months were not unacceptable. But it had been over a year now.
As for whether Kazuki could take everyone away using the Flying Thunder God Technique?
If it were before, Kazuki would naturally feel pressure. Flying Thunder God Technique consumes a lot of Chakra, and the more Chakra the target being transferred has, the more the consumption.
But now he is already an Ōtsutsuki, and his spatial abilities are becoming more and more excellent. Think of Kaguya's Amenominaka and Sasuke's Amenotejikara, these are all excellent spatial abilities.
Among the ocular techniques Kazuki has awakened so far, there are no spatial abilities, but his spatial abilities are much better than before.
Coupled with his massive amount of Chakra, taking these people away was not difficult at all, and he could even return to Konoha in one go.
"Let's go! Everything else can wait until we get back to Konoha." Kazuki then continued.
...
The moment he returned to Konoha, Kazuki immediately went to the Hokage Office to report, while the Uzumaki clan members were taken to the Konoha Hospital by Mikoto and the others.
As for meeting Mito, that was impossible. Not to mention Mito, even Kushina would not come to see them for now.
After all, no one knew what their attitude was now, and they would need to be tested through various means afterward.
