Faced with this desperate situation, some of the Mist Ninja were already filled with fear and prepared to give up.
However, some people resolutely chose to rise up in resistance.
They knew that this was a matter of life and death, and only by fighting with all their might could they possibly find a glimmer of hope.
These people stared intently at the wall of flames before them, their eyes gleaming with determination.
They exchanged a glance, as if tacitly conveying some kind of message.
Then, led by what appeared to be a leader, they lined up neatly in a row.
"Water Style. Water Wave!"
Hundreds of Mist Ninja shouted in unison, their voices echoing throughout the entire battlefield.
Their hands quickly formed a hand seal, then they thrust forward forcefully.
Suddenly, a huge stream of water gushed out from beside them, rushing violently towards the wall of flames.
Although it is only a B-rank ninjutsu, its power should not be underestimated when combined with the combined efforts of so many Mist Ninja.
The water flowed rapidly in the air, coalescing into a massive water column tens of meters high, which, with boundless momentum, crashed fiercely against the dark wall of flames.
Uchiha Seiryu simply watched them quietly, without interfering with their actions.
However, a cold smile lingered on his face.
"boom!"
A loud bang was heard as the water jet slammed into the flames.
Suddenly, the entire battlefield seemed to tremble.
As if provoked, the dark flames flickered once before burning even more fiercely.
Even the water vapor was burned away, as if all resistance was instantly swallowed up by the flames.
The Mist Ninja, who had just gained some morale, were plunged into despair once again upon seeing this scene.
"Enough of the frolicking, it's time to hit the road, Mist Ninja."
At that moment, Uchiha Seiryu's cold voice rang in their ears, like a death knell from the Grim Reaper.
They mechanically turned around, looking in the direction from which the sound came, their expressions frozen in fear.
The enormous figure of Susanoo stood there, its sword slowly absorbing the flames of Flame Release: Brahma.
The flames danced on the sword, like a tamed beast, gradually calming down before being completely absorbed by the sword.
After absorbing the flames, the battle blade emitted an even more terrifying aura.
The Third Mizukage and the Kirigakure ninja felt a chill rise from the depths of their hearts, as if they were shrouded in the shadow of death.
"Nirvana!" (Note 1)
As Uchiha Seiryu's voice faded, the armored Susanoo swung its battle sword.
With a single swing of the sword, the world seemed to fall into a momentary silence.
All sounds, the wind, and heartbeats vanished, leaving only that dazzling blade of light, carrying unparalleled majesty, as it slashed towards the Third Mizukage and the Kirigakure ninja.
Their eyes widened, their pupils reflecting the approaching glint of the blade, and their faces showed terror and despair.
They tried to move their feet and escape the deadly glint of the blade.
But he found that his body seemed to be locked by an invisible force, and he couldn't even move his fingers.
Fear made their eyes widen, and their heartbeats grew louder in the silence.
They could only watch helplessly as the blade drew closer, their hearts filled with endless despair.
"Coax~~~"
A deafening roar, like the collapse of the heavens and the splitting of the earth, shook the entire world.
In that instant, everything vanished, leaving only the flashing blade and endless darkness.
When everything fell silent, the people of the Vortex Clan were completely stunned by the scene before them.
The world before their eyes had completely changed; the place where the Mist Ninja had once lived had now become a plain.
Whether it was tall trees or small hills, everything was reduced to nothing by that one stroke, leaving only dust and rubble on the ground.
"Danglang~"
The soft sound, like a drop of water falling into a calm lake, instantly broke the surrounding silence.
The members of the Vortex Clan, who were stunned by the sight before them, snapped back to their senses and turned their gazes in unison toward the direction from which the sound came.
A young member of the Uzumaki clan stood not far away, his face pale, the kunai he was holding tightly slipping from his hand and hitting the ground with a soft thud.
He stared wide-eyed at the ruins before him, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing was real.
"Oh! We won!!!"
Suddenly, an excited voice rang out, breaking the brief silence.
Immediately afterwards, even more cheers erupted, surging like waves.
The members of the Uzumaki clan shouted in unison:
"Long live Uzumaki!! Long live Konoha!!"
They waved their arms excitedly, their faces beaming with smiles, as if celebrating this hard-won victory.
Uchiha Seiryu stood quietly atop the giant's head, looking down at the ruins he had created with his own hands.
His face was expressionless, but his eyes gleamed with satisfaction.
This was the first time he had gone all out, and the first time he had truly understood his own strength.
He knew that this attack was almost his full strength at the moment, and the strongest power he had ever possessed.
With this move, Uchiha Seiryu not only achieved his revenge, but also accomplished another important objective.
The annihilation of the Mist Ninja was not only a fierce retaliation against the Mizukage's ingratitude, but also Uchiha Seiryu's way of announcing to the world that Konoha had changed.
The Third Mizukage was controlled by Madara Uchiha, and it was the people of Konoha who helped him overcome this ordeal.
They haven't even investigated his responsibility for attacking Konoha yet, after all, Madara Uchiha was considered a rogue ninja of Konoha.
However, the Third Mizukage's actions of attacking the Land of Whirlpools and killing Konoha's Anbu for his own benefit were something that the Uchiha Seiryuu could not tolerate.
Therefore, he chose to wipe out all the Mist Ninja with swift and decisive action, just to make everyone understand.
Konoha is no longer the Konoha of the past; it has new guardians and new rules.
The point is to let the other ninja villages know that Konoha Village is no longer what it used to be.
It is no longer a place where one can be easily bullied and where a simple apology can settle things.
Uchiha Seiryu wanted to show them through his actions that any invasion or provocation of Konoha would come at a heavy price.
He wanted the whole world to know that Konoha Village had a new master, new power, and a new determination.
This is a brand new era, an era belonging to the Uchiha Seiryu and Konoha Village.
Xingliu glanced at the Vortex Clan, who were caught up in a frenzy of revelry on the city walls not far away, and smiled calmly.
Then, he looked ahead, put his hands together, and softly chanted, "Wood Release: Descent of the Tree World".
As he spoke, an invisible force spread through the air.
What was once a plain suddenly sprouted many trees from the ground.
Before long, the entire plain was covered by trees, becoming a lush forest.
Looking at the scene before him, he nodded in satisfaction.
Then he muttered to himself:
"Now that things are done, I'm going back to catch up on my sleep. Come to think of it, these past few days have been incredibly busy."
"No, I need to go back and properly supervise Tsunade and the others' study progress. Otherwise, how will they slack off in the future?"
Chapter 109 Changes in Tsunade and the Others
The Chunin Exams have finally come to an end, and Konoha Village, thanks to Uchiha Seiryu, undoubtedly secured first place.
However, the second place winner surprised many people.
Although only two participants from Sunagakure remained—Black Sand and Red Sand—they displayed astonishing strength and perseverance, giving their all to secure second place.
In particular, Black Sand's Iron Sand World Technique caused great suffering to the people of the other ninja villages.
The Hidden Cloud Village, which has a very assertive attitude towards the outside world, only managed to get fourth place this time, just slightly better than the Hidden Mist Village, which came in last place.
After the result came out, the Third Raikage was so angry that he left Konoha.
A few days after the three Kage returned to their respective ninja villages, shocking news once again shattered the peace of the five great nations.
Taking advantage of the lull in Konoha's Chunin Exams, Kirigakure launched an attack on Uzushiogakure.
The operation ended in a disastrous defeat, with the entire Kirigakure army wiped out and even the Third Mizukage confirmed dead in the battle.
The Uchiha Seiryuu wiped out the Kirigakure ninja, but not everyone in the castle of the Land of Whirlpools was from the Uzumaki clan.
Therefore, this news will naturally spread.
Furthermore, Xingliu wouldn't deliberately conceal this news.
His purpose in taking action this time included intimidating the five great nations and letting them know that Konoha had changed its attitude towards the outside world.
If they know nothing, how can they be deterred?
The effect was obvious: Kirigakure not only did not demand an explanation from Konoha, but the newly elected Fourth Mizukage even sent a letter of apology to Konoha.
After that, ninjas from other countries would also choose to avoid Konoha members when they encountered them on missions.
After learning the outcome of the matter, Madara Uchiha laughed uncontrollably.
He kept muttering something:
"This kid is more like me."
Phrases like, "Hashirama, did you see that? As expected, I was right!"
