Once Sarutobi Hiruzen died.
The curtain of darkness could no longer be maintained.
It quickly dissipated.
Uchiha Shin glanced at the body of Sarutobi Hiruzen, which had been chopped into several pieces by his axe (two sides of his body and two arms), without joy or pride. He then turned his gaze to the other battlefield.
At this moment.
The Uchiha clan grounds.
More than half of the buildings had been destroyed.
It was completely in ruins.
At this moment.
The battle was exceptionally fierce.
Well, the Konoha army was being dealt with quite miserably by the nine Susanoos.
"It's about time to end this farce!"
Uchiha Shin murmured to himself.
He then shouted at the top of his lungs, "Sarutobi Hiruzen is dead! Those who surrender will not be killed!"
Uchiha Shin's voice had a strong penetrating power and quickly spread throughout the entire battlefield.
The Uchiha clansmen, hearing Uchiha Shin's words, couldn't help but show a hint of joy.
They roared in unison, "Sarutobi Hiruzen is dead, those who surrender will not be killed!"
The ninjas on the Konoha side were instantly struck as if by lightning.
"Lord Third is dead?"
"How can this be?"
"Isn't he the strongest Hokage in history?"
"How could he be killed by a mere Uchiha?"
"It must be fake!"
"Yes, it must be fake!"
"No, it's true, Lord Third is dead!"
"His body is over there!"
At this moment, many people also looked towards Uchiha Shin's location.
And naturally saw the corpse of the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen.
For a moment, they all became dispirited and completely lost their will to fight.
They had also lost their faith!
"Lay down your weapons, surrender and you won't be killed! Don't make me say it again!"
Uchiha Tekka shouted loudly.
"Everyone, don't listen!"
"The Uchiha have rebelled and killed Lord Third, their crime is unforgivable! Everyone, let's avenge Lord Third together!"
A ninja from the Sarutobi clan shouted in shock and anger.
However, what greeted him was not the response of the other ninjas.
But a great axe descending from the sky.
With a bang.
It directly split that person in two.
"Those who resist stubbornly! This will be your fate!"
One of Uchiha Shin's shadow clones shouted loudly.
All the ninjas in the Konoha army shivered.
Although they were all ninjas, accustomed to killing.
That didn't mean they weren't afraid of death.
"Everyone, listen up!"
"This war, in the end, is just a dispute between our Uchiha and the Konoha higher-ups."
"For years, the Konoha higher-ups have been pressing our Uchiha step by step. Now, they've even turned Itachi against us, making him carry out a massacre against our Uchiha clan."
"Our Uchiha's counterattack is just to seek justice!"
"The one who has a grievance has a head, the one who has a debt has a debtor! Our Uchiha are only targeting the Konoha higher-ups and the Sarutobi clan, the Shimura clan, the Mitokado clan, and the Utatane clan. We are not targeting anyone else! Now, those who are not related to the four great clans, quickly step aside!"
Uchiha Shin steered his Susanoo and walked towards the Konoha army.
Among the Konoha army, those ninjas who were not related to the four great clans, had not received favors from the Third Hokage, and only wanted to save their own lives.
Instantly.
Decisively chose to step aside.
"Kill!"
The remaining ninjas who were related to the four great clans could no longer sit still.
They looked around.
After exchanging glances and reaching a tacit understanding.
They suddenly rioted.
To this, Uchiha Shin showed no mercy.
The ten Susanoos activated simultaneously.
Ruthlessly encircling and suppressing those resisting ninjas.
Half an hour later!
The Uchiha clan grounds were flowing with rivers of blood, and corpses were strewn everywhere.
Nearly three thousand bodies were left behind.
Among the three thousand bodies.
One thousand belonged to the Sarutobi clan.
Four hundred to the Utatane clan.
Three hundred to the Shimura clan.
Three hundred to the Mitokado clan.
The rest.
Were all civilian ninjas.
Some were killed earlier, while others were loyal to Sarutobi Hiruzen and participated in the riot.
The Konoha ninjas who had stepped aside watched this scene, already trembling with fear.
It was too terrifying, too ruthless.
"The remnants of the four great clans have been cleared out. Everyone from the U-Uchiha clan! It's our turn to counterattack! Everyone, follow me to exterminate the four great clans!" Uchiha Shin shouted loudly to the surrounding Uchiha clansmen.
"Hooray!"
The Uchiha clansmen cheered upon hearing this, and after regrouping, they followed Uchiha Shin to attack the four great clans.
Uchiha Shin did not take all ten Susanoos with him.
He left four Susanoos behind to guard the more than four thousand, nearly five thousand ninjas.
If these people were left unattended.
They might cause trouble!
After Uchiha Shin's main body left with five Susanoos.
The remaining shadow clone immediately spoke loudly, "All troops, listen to my command. Clean up the battlefield and gather all the corpses!"
The ninjas looked at each other upon hearing this, and then all started to move.
On the other side!
As Uchiha Shin led the less than one hundred Uchiha clan ninjas to attack the four great clans.
Halfway there!
He suddenly encountered Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu leading a group of ninjas from the major clans, rushing over.
The two sides were less than a hundred meters apart and tacitly stopped!
The allied ninja forces looked at the six tall Susanoos.
Their scalps tingled.
They were supposed to fight an opponent like this?
Was this a joke?
For a moment, all the ninjas from the major clans had thoughts of retreating.
"Another batch of enemies?"
Uchiha Shin's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Hyuga Hiashi, Nara Shikaku, do you also want to go to war with my Uchiha clan?"
"No, no, we just heard the commotion and came to see. We absolutely have no intention of going to war with the Uchiha clan. Uchiha Shin, right? What is the situation now?" Shikaku quickly denied upon hearing this, and then asked.
"Sarutobi Hiruzen has been beheaded by me! Shimura Danzo fled in the middle of the battle. As for the eight thousand ninjas Sarutobi Hiruzen relied on, three thousand have been beheaded by me, and the rest have surrendered!" Uchiha Shin's lips curled up as he frankly told Shikaku and the others about the battle situation.
Hiss...
The ninjas from the major clans couldn't help but suck in a cold breath!
Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, however, felt a wave of dizziness.
As if struck by a bolt from the blue
