Naruto: The Age of Ninja Swords Begins in Kumogakure
Chapter 483 Judgment of the Hokage
The battle became increasingly fierce, and the situation became increasingly unfavorable for the Uchiha.
That wasn't all. Suddenly, a strange figure appeared, specifically targeting and hunting down Uchiha ninjas with the three-tomoe Sharingan.
The opponent's figure was extremely strange, as if it were an illusion. No matter whether it was ninjutsu or ninja tools, they would pass through it in a strange way.
That's right, it was Obito Uchiha who made the move.
After receiving information from White Zetsu that a coup had broken out in the Uchiha clan, he immediately rushed over and took the opportunity to harvest the three-tomoe Sharingan, which was excellent material for using Izanagi.
His two defeats against the Fourth Mizukage made him more wary and cautious, and he needed to prepare more trump cards. Izanagi was the best choice.
Faced with a surprise attack from a powerful figure like Obito Uchiha, Uchiha ninjas without the Mangekyou Sharingan were simply unable to withstand it.
Meanwhile, the two Uchiha with Mangekyou Sharingan were locked in a fierce battle, completely unaware that someone was targeting them.
At the same time, Obito Uchiha was also very cautious, trying to stay away from Kakashi, who possessed the Ea sword, and mainly targeting relatively isolated Uchiha ninjas. He would often kill them with a single blow, and immediately hide after succeeding, without any hesitation.
That's right, he already knows that the Hidden Mist Silver Wolf is Kakashi. In this ninja world, there is no information that White Zetsu cannot obtain.
He could understand to some extent why Kakashi betrayed Konoha and joined Kirigakure. From Kakashi's initiative to kill the Third Mizukage that day, and his subsequent cooperation with the Fourth Mizukage in the Great Trial, he could roughly guess that it was a means of revenge for Rin.
This gave him a sense of belonging, but it also gave him a headache.
That guy is too restrained; I almost got taken down twice before. He's not easy to deal with.
For now, we can only hide and wait until we find a way to transplant that Rinnegan and master its power before looking for an opportunity to fight back.
As for getting that eye back, he never even considered it.
That was a gift he gave to Kakashi, and it was even performed by Rin as a witness. He won't take it back.
Obito Uchiha's intervention made the situation increasingly unfavorable for the Uchiha clan, and the ninjas from other clans intensified their counterattacks, leading to an increasingly fierce battle between the two sides.
Meanwhile, the battle at the Hokage Building also reached a stalemate, but Kakashi and his group still had the upper hand, continuously killing the Konoha ninjas and keeping a close eye on Hiruzen Sarutobi and his group.
The two sides were locked in a war of attrition. Kakashi and his group were expending the number of Konoha ninja, or rather, their lives, while Hiruzen Sarutobi was using human lives to deplete Kakashi and his group's chakra.
It all comes down to who gives up first.
Tamura Hao and the Great Toad Sage were locked in a stalemate, neither able to gain the upper hand. In particular, Tamura Hao, possessing the Flying Thunder God Technique, held absolute initiative.
However, the Great Toad Sage also had his own plans: to continuously deplete the human and allow him to continue absorbing his sage power, slowly accumulating it within his body until the moment of its eruption.
He didn't believe the other party could devour him indefinitely, and he had absolute confidence in his own accumulation over thousands of years.
The three battlefields remained locked in a stalemate and attrition, until the Uchiha were the first to give up. This was mainly because Obito had hunted down all the three-tomoe warriors, wiping out their high-end combat power.
Meanwhile, the battle between Fugaku Uchiha and Itachi Uchiha finally came to a conclusion, with Fugaku Uchiha emerging victorious.
Although Itachi Uchiha has better talent and his manifested Susanoo has greater potential, he is unfortunately too young, only thirteen years old this year.
Fugaku Uchiha, on the other hand, was in his prime. His combat experience and chakra reserves far surpassed those of Itachi Uchiha. Moreover, he had been using his Mangekyou Sharingan for many years and had a better grasp of its power. It was only natural that he would win.
"Don't make the same mistake again."
Uchiha Itachi, whose Susanoo had been shattered, coughed up blood, and the blood flowing from his eyes stained his entire face red, but he still tried to persuade his father to turn back from his misguided ways.
A coup is a major taboo, and to guide an external enemy to assist in a coup is an even greater taboo. Even if the Hokage and his men are killed, the Uchiha clan and the village will still find it difficult to maintain stability.
Not to mention that Kirigakure is no benevolent people, known throughout the ninja world for its ferocity and brutality. Cooperating with such a force is beyond the scope of "seeking help from a tiger."
He could not stand by and watch his father and family make one mistake after another, nor could he bear to see the village destroyed by his family.
"My biggest mistake was giving birth to you, this unfilial son!"
Fugaku Uchiha, also coughing up blood and shedding tears of blood, staggered forward, wanting to kill this rebellious son. Otherwise, he would not be able to explain to his clan, nor to the clansmen who died in this battle.
"He can't be killed by you."
Just then, a figure appeared behind Itachi Uchiha, and at the same time, the surrounding space distorted. It was Obito Uchiha who made his move.
The potential shown by Itachi Uchiha surprised him; perhaps he could become a good pawn.
But the next moment a figure suddenly appeared, his scythe slashing through the air, beheading Uchiha Itachi and simultaneously reaping and sealing his soul.
The scythe continued to slash, but unfortunately it passed right through Obito Uchiha's body, which he dodged using his intangibility ability.
Even Obito Uchiha, who narrowly escaped a fatal blow using intangibility, was startled and broke out in a cold sweat. It was too sudden; he really hadn't expected that the Fourth Mizukage had left the Flying Thunder God Technique on Itachi at some unknown time.
Is that Uchiha Shisui's headband?
Obito Uchiha quickly figured out what had happened, and looking at Itachi Uchiha's corpse, he could only leave in anger.
Tamura Hiroaki did indeed imprint the Flying Thunder God Technique seal on that headband, and Uchiha Itachi always carried it with him, which gave him the opportunity to strike instantly.
After sealing away Itachi Uchiha's soul and body, Tamura Hao's figure vanished instantly as he continued his battle with the Great Toad Sage.
The unexpected turn of events involving his son caused Fugaku Uchiha to momentarily lose his composure. He then glanced at the ninjas from various clans who had surrounded him, gave a silent, bitter laugh, and spoke loudly.
"Hyuga, it's your turn!"
"Congratulations in advance on becoming the Fifth Hokage, Hiashi-kun!"
The Uchiha clan lost this battle, but those old fogies like Hiruzen Sarutobi won't have an easy time either; their entire clan will be wiped out.
He didn't believe the Hyuga clan could still tolerate this situation, and even if they could, he would provoke them.
These words caused the expressions of the ninjas from the major clans who had surrounded them to change drastically, and the Hyuga clan did indeed make their move.
From its inception, Konoha has only had three powerful clans: the Senju, Uchiha, and Hyuga. Now that the Senju and Uchiha have fallen one after another, if the Hyuga does not seize the opportunity to strive for change, they will inevitably be the next to be wiped out.
Hundreds of Hyuga ninjas rushed forward, taking over from the Uchiha to continue slaughtering the members of those major clans. Regardless of whether they were ninjas or not, regardless of gender or age, they were all killed without exception.
"Hinata!"
On the battlefield at the Hokage Building, Hiruzen Sarutobi, covered in blood, was furious. He never expected that even the Hyuga clan would get involved. Now his entire clan was truly doomed.
Meanwhile, other ninja clans and civilian ninjas chose to continue to wait and see, because the intelligence and evidence that the Uchiha had presented earlier were too powerful, completely shattering the prestige that Hiruzen Sarutobi and others had built up over decades.
It even turned into deep hatred; not joining the fray was considered a sign of restraint.
With the Hyuga clan taking over, the already exhausted ninjas of the other clans were wiped out in no time, even if they hid underground or tried to escape through tunnels.
These petty tricks are meaningless under the disdainful gaze.
Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others didn't last long either. They tried to use human lives to deplete Kakashi and the others' chakra, but unfortunately, Kakashi and the others had special seals inside their bodies to store chakra, and their reserves were quite considerable.
In the end, everyone died, but Kakashi and the others still had a lot of chakra left.
"Old man, we won't let you die so easily. What follows is a great trial for you, exposing the sins of all of you, making you infamous for eternity, and nailing you to the pillar of shame forever."
And your son, whom you sent to Daimyo Prefecture to become a guardian ninja, I will personally send him down to accompany you.
No, your souls will also be shattered and obliterated; you will never be able to reunite.
Kushina used the Adamantine Lock to bind Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was trying to commit suicide, and said words that made him even more furious and terrified.
On the other side, Shimura Danzo, who was being targeted by Kakashi, didn't last long either. He kept trying to escape, but he was always blocked. Even using Izanagi didn't help.
"Kushina-neechan, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu committed suicide."
At that moment, Hinaka walked over, carrying two corpses in her hands, namely Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu.
"Your sins cannot be absolved by death."
She glanced coldly at the two corpses. She had been waiting for today's grand trial for a long time, and it had been a lot of trouble to get that brat to attack Konoha. She had to make it perfect.
She doesn't respect the dead.
"Hyuga, keep an eye on these people."
Looking at the Hyuga ninjas who had arrived not far away, Kushina called out and rushed towards the brat's battlefield.
Kakashi and the others rushed over as well, ready to join forces to destroy the giant toad.
Although that giant toad was powerful, it didn't have a devastating attack like the Tailed Beast Ball, so they could still get involved.
Seeing that he was about to be surrounded and attacked, the Great Toad Sage was unwilling, but he could only glare at the person hatefully before using a summoning technique to return to Mount Myōboku.
Only after confirming that the Great Toad Sage had indeed left did Tamura Hiroshi close all eight gates.
The body sustained some damage, but it is recovering rapidly under the nourishment of powerful life force.
"Clan Chief Fugaku, it seems you will be unable to fulfill your previous agreement."
Tamura Hao slowly approached Uchiha Fugaku, who was being supported by his wife, and then looked at the women and children standing behind him. He sighed at the powerful inertia of the plot.
Itachi Uchiha still ended up on the opposite side of the clan. Fortunately, his influence prevented the Uchiha clan from being wiped out, and the coup was successful, eliminating the Hokage faction.
"It is our fault. This is our apology from the Uchiha clan. You may take the eyes of the clansmen who died in battle tonight. We only ask that Lord Mizukage take in the remaining members of our Uchiha clan."
Still shedding tears of blood, Fugaku Uchiha handed over the gourd and sealing scroll in his hand, begging Kirigakure to take in his clansmen.
Although the Hokage faction was wiped out this time, the clan's elite forces were almost completely destroyed, and with this coup, the clan will inevitably be targeted in the future.
Rather than perish here in Konoha, it's better to take a gamble in Kirigakure.
"good!"
After glancing once more at the Uchiha women and children who were silently weeping, Tamura Hao accepted the gourd and the sealing scroll, granting Uchiha Fugaku's request.
The two remained silent, turning to watch Kushina and the others interrogate Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others, questioning them one by one according to the information obtained from the Root organization. Even Homura Mitokado and Koharu Utatane, who had already committed suicide, were resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation technique.
The Hyuga ninjas even went to the Root base to brute force their way through and retrieve everything inside, thus definitively condemning Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others for their crimes.
Only by denying the past of these people can they obtain the correct legal legitimacy and rightfully take control of the village.
Tamura Hiroshi did just that back then. By completely negating the judgment of the Third Mizukage and others, he obtained the correct legal lineage and secured his position as Mizukage. Otherwise, who knows how many more troubles he would have caused.
The legitimacy of the legal system is of utmost importance, just as Cao Cao's lineage in the previous life obtained the throne illegitimately and was subsequently overthrown.
If your position is obtained through dishonest means, there will always be people who want to take your place.
This grand trial lasted until the early hours of the next day, revealing all the dirty deeds that Hiruzen Sarutobi and his associates had committed since they came to power, and broadcasting the information throughout Konoha using a specially brought loudspeaker.
The ninjas and civilians of Konoha were all horrified as they listened to the chilling stories. Those who had experienced them were filled with rage and hatred, wishing they could tear Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others to pieces.
After completing the trial of the individuals, Tamura Hao stepped forward and used the Corpse Bone Demon Scythe to kill them, harvesting and sealing their souls.
After Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others were killed, Fugaku Uchiha committed seppuku.
He, as the father, also bears responsibility for his eldest son's mistakes and has no face to live any longer.
Moreover, he had overexerted himself in order to suppress that rebellious son, and his eyes had reached their limit, his vision had become blurry, and there was no point in him continuing to live.
Only by dying can Kirigakure better accept these clansmen.
"dad!"
Having just regained consciousness, Sasuke Uchiha looked at his father, who had committed seppuku, and his eyes immediately turned red before he fainted again.
"Ugh!"
With a sigh, Tamura Hao stepped forward and used the Corpse Bone Demon Scythe to collect Uchiha Fugaku's soul, and also collected his body. The bodies of the other Uchiha ninjas had also been collected.
"Go to Shinobi Hawk, I'll take you to build a new home."
Tamura Hao summoned the ninja hawks circling in the air and gestured for the remaining Uchiha women and children to go up.
There are about 500 women and children left in the Uchiha clan. Fortunately, the size of the Ninja Hawk has increased significantly in recent years, so it can easily support 500 women and children.
Tamura Hao and the others did not linger and followed the Ninja Hawk back.
After they all left, the people of Konoha finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The strength displayed by Kirigakure was too great, especially the Fourth Mizukage's explosive power, which was terrifying. A casual strike could cause the entire Hidden Leaf Village to tremble, and a single slash could create a deep, dark slash mark hundreds of meters long. It was terrifying.
"The future belongs to Kirigakure."
Akimichi Torifu watched the giant eagle disappear into the distance, knowing that the era of Konoha had come to an end.
He had personally witnessed the god-like strength of the First Hokage, and the power displayed by the Fourth Mizukage's outburst reminded him of that First Hokage.
Kirigakure possessed such god-like powerhouses, while Konoha declined amidst constant internal strife and attrition, even losing the Senju and Uchiha clans.
Although only the powerful Hyuga clan remains, they all know what kind of family the Hyuga clan is, as it has never produced a top-tier expert.
Konoha has no future!
Regardless of what the Konoha people were thinking, on the back of the returning ninja hawk, Ringo Ameyuri was glaring angrily at her perverted fiancé.
The reason is that this pervert ended up taking three women with him, and they were all very beautiful.
"If Lord Mizukage wants it, he can come to me."
Mei Terumi pressed her body against him, and one of her hands quietly moved to his waist, as if she would strangle him if he didn't give her an explanation.
Tamura Hao took the initiative and subdued the other with a headbutt. Then he grabbed the glaring child bride from the other side and headbutted her as well.
"You've spoiled me!"
With a cold snort, he, Tian, was not the kind of man who would yield to or compromise with a woman. If you dare to stab me, I dare to slap you back.
"It does contain Orochimaru's chakra, and there should be fragments of his soul inside."
At this moment, Kakashi, who had been examining the cursed seal on Mitarashi Anko's neck, said, "I'm certain this is a backup plan left by Orochimaru."
"Can you remove this thing from your side?"
Mitarashi Shishou hurriedly inquired, having noticed something amiss with the cursed seal years ago. Although he had been sealing it with the Evil-Sealing Seal, he was even more worried upon hearing that Orochimaru's soul fragments were inside, and felt it would be better to remove them.
"Lord Mizukage should be able to dispel it."
Kakashi himself can't do anything about it, but the Mizukage certainly can.
"I need to go back and sort through Orochimaru's memories before I can start dealing with this."
Tamura Hiroshi grabbed Mitarashi Anko mainly to study the cursed seal.
As for Mitarashi Shishou, he followed on his own initiative and didn't cause any trouble; he's a smart person.
"Is it because of that cursed seal?"
Mei Terumi, rubbing her forehead, realized that her wicked younger brother had probably captured that woman for the cursed seal. Since it was left by Orochimaru, it was not to be underestimated.
"What about the other two? They don't have any curse marks on their necks."
Yuri, still rubbing her forehead, was quite dissatisfied. She pointed at the remaining two women, one of whom was glaring at them with hatred, as if she had killed the other woman's boyfriend in the previous battle.
"I have other uses for the two of them."
Tamura Hao casually replied that capturing Kurenai Yuhi and Yugao Uzuki was simply to change their plot and fate, in order to gain some power of destiny.
Especially Kurenai Yuhi, who will be the teacher of the three little cockroaches in the future.
"What's with that look on your face? Don't think that just because you're a little pretty, everyone has to be interested in you."
Suddenly noticing Kurenai Yuhi covering her chest with a look of disapproval, Tamura Hiroshi became displeased. "Don't you know that this will cause misunderstandings?"
"You bastard!"
These words made Kurenai Yuhi's eyes even redder with anger. If she weren't outmatched by that bastard, she would definitely have rushed up and stabbed him a few times.
The silent Yuhi Maku subtly observed the boy, her expression gradually changing.
"Those two still have some bond, but the one with purple hair doesn't. He only harbors hatred towards us and probably won't submit to our Hidden Mist Village."
Mei Terumi became more serious, scrutinizing the three women with a critical eye, especially the last one with purple hair, whose hatred seemed very intense.
"It's alright, we can use her to test how far Uchiha Shisui's eyes can go."
Tamura Hao didn't care. Although he had captured Uzuki Yugao along the way to obtain some power of destiny, he didn't care what happened to her afterwards. He could just use Kotoamatsukami to brainwash her.
