Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha lacks motivation.

Chapter 127: Did I wander onto the wrong set?

"Forehead?"

Feeling the gusts of wind pressure coming from above, Uchiha Gin's curly hair was blown into a mess.

The Senju clan caught up so quickly?

Moreover, the newcomer was quite powerful, managing to deceive his senses.

Uchiha Gin, raising an eyebrow, was about to deal with the attacker who had fallen from the sky when he heard the other party's furious shout.

"Go to hell, you human trafficker!"

???

This familiar title awakened Uchiha Gin's sealed memories. He quickly looked up and saw a red figure rushing towards him, two fiery red buns swaying freely in the wind.

Wait, how did it become four groups?

"Ugh! What a spoilsport."

The girl clinging to Gin's arm also sensed the approaching person. She had finally found a chance to get close to Gin, and now this person had come to disturb her; it was an outrageous crime.

Uchiha Hikaru's eyes instantly turned bloodshot. She raised her head and glared angrily at the person who had descended from the sky.

As the alluring patterns appeared in his eyes, a cold and obscure aura rose around Uchiha Hikaru.

With her eyelids slightly raised, a cherry-red transparent skeleton slowly condensed from behind the girl until it transformed into a half-body Susanoo.

Uchiha Hikaru's cherry-red Susanoo, using its massive body, shielded Uchiha Gin and Uchiha Gin beneath it, while its enormous hand gripped a several-meter-long wood-chopping knife, and without hesitation slashed at the rapidly falling figures from the sky.

"Huh? Hikaru, stop!"

Everything happened too fast. By the time Uchiha Gin finally managed to pull his gaze away from the fiery red giant ball, the girl beside him had already launched a furious attack in her Goudaiki form.

This is truly a case of the flood washing away the Dragon King's temple; even family members don't recognize each other.

However, Uchiha Hikaru, who was in a state of rage, had dark energy swirling between his brows. He ignored Uchiha Gin's words and continued to urge on his Susanoo, without reducing the force in his hands.

Uchiha Gin was completely bewildered, trapped inside the girl's Susanoo.

He had no choice but to take action. He immediately gathered strength in his legs, preparing to forcefully break through and salvage the current situation. However, what happened next shocked him to the point of complete disbelief.

"Huh? This technique is..."

Before the powerful punch could land, Mito Uzumaki, who had just finished speaking, noticed the strange half-giant that had materialized beside Gin Uchiha. A certain ninjutsu recorded in the clan flashed through her mind, a form that only the Uchiha clan could possess when they reached their peak.

"I didn't expect the human trafficker to have become so powerful?"

For some reason, a hint of joy arose in the girl's heart, and a glint of light flickered in her beautiful eyes; it was unclear what she was thinking.

However, I didn't fall behind either.

A glint of gold flashed in Mito Uzumaki's dark eyes, and her fiery red robe fluttered without wind.

The girl activated all the power hidden within her vortex bloodline, and her already abundant chakra was directly sublimated and materialized.

"Holy crap, no way?"

Uchiha Gin's dead fish eyes were wide open like copper bells, and his mouth was so wide open that he forgot to close it.

Countless enormous golden chains extended from behind Mito Uzumaki, spreading out like the steel wings of an angel, each chain bearing a sharp spike. These massive chains began to intertwine and entwine with her thoughts.

Countless chains were stacked together to form a golden chain giant tens of meters tall. The enormous body enveloped the girl's slightly small and slender figure. The golden chain giant swung its iron fists several meters long, carrying immense power, and descended from the sky.

【King Kong Lockdown: Chain Colossus】

Make a grand entrance!

"Snapped!"

Stunned, Uchiha Gin couldn't help but slap himself with his superhuman strength. Feeling a slight pain on his face, he instinctively swallowed.

I'm dressed as a Naruto character, right? It's not a giant tokusatsu show, is it?

"Bang!!!"

The cherry-red machete clashed with the golden chained iron fist, and the powerful impact created a shockwave that left the bewildered onlookers dizzy and disoriented.

Uchiha Rin was the first to hide behind a boulder to avoid the impact of the earth-shattering collision.

Feeling the tremors emanating from the boulder she was pressed against, the girl felt not only shock but also envy. A resolute glint flashed in her narrowed eyes; she too would become that powerful someday.

Good, good, the Gundam team has gained another reserve member.

"Aaaaaah!!!"

The two brothers, Golden Horn and Silver Horn, didn't fare so well. The two boys were in the very center of the battlefield, facing the powerful aura directly, and were immediately blown around until they were dizzy and disoriented.

The strong Golden Horn was alright; he managed to grab onto a large tree and escape being blown away. But his younger brother, Silver Horn, was not so lucky. He was lifted up by the strong wind and was about to fall into the deep canyon in the distance.

"Brother, save me!"

The terrified Silver Horn couldn't help but shout, but the airflow was too strong, and his mouth was filled with dust as soon as he opened it.

Just as he was about to perish, a thick tree branch rose from the ground and tightly bound the silver horn flying wildly in the air, thus preventing the boy from being reduced to ashes.

"Phew~ I made it in time."

Uchiha Gin, still in Susanoo, wiped the cold sweat from his brow and dissipated the pale blue light in his hand. He couldn't let these two kids die here; he'd still need them to deal with the white-haired guy later!

"Thump!"

As the impact subsided, Kinkaku and Ginkaku fell to the ground. Kinkaku rushed to his brother's side to check on him. When he found that Ginkaku only had minor scratches, he looked at Gin with deep gratitude in his eyes.

However, Uchiha Gin was no longer concerned about the two boys, Kinkaku and Ginkaku; his attention was completely drawn to the duel between the two girls.

Uchiha Hikaru frowned slightly. Her Susanoo was unable to advance an inch. This unfamiliar guy in front of her was definitely not an ordinary person.

Unwilling to admit defeat, she increased the infusion of her eye power, and the cherry-red second-stage Susanoo began to transform under the girl's generous eye power.

The girl's cherry-red half-body Susanoo began to grow taller and taller, growing legs and a pair of bone wings on its back, until its size reached the same level as the golden chain giant blade opposite it before stopping.

"Hehe, now we're evenly matched, aren't we!"

The girl, who had leveled her vision, gave a strange smile, which sent a chill down Uchiha Gin's spine.

The third-stage cherry-red Susanoo exerted its power to push away the still-stunned golden chain giant, and once again swung its wood-chopping knife, which had grown to more than ten meters in length, slashing at the giant like a storm.

"Huh? Ah!"

While Mito was still in a daze inside the golden statue, the cherry-red Susanoo, which was originally a head shorter than her, suddenly became as big as her statue.

The sudden change caught her off guard, and in her carelessness, she was struck by the huge wood-chopping knife, causing her to stagger.

"That human trafficker is truly heartless. Since that's the case, don't blame me. Let's catch up after I've beaten you down."

Mito Uzumaki was not intimidated by the gigantic Susanoo. Instead, she felt a surge of competitiveness and fantasized about defeating the Susanoo in front of her and then having a good chat with the astonished Gin Uchiha.

He then activated the Vajra Seal of the Colossus with all his might, and the mountain-sized hand slammed mercilessly onto Susanoo's body, producing a deafening roar.

"Hmm~"

The Uchiha Hikaru, controlled by Susanoo, was nearly thrown over by the immense force. Barely regaining his footing, he wiped the cold sweat from his face, showing no sign of frustration; instead, a handsome smile curved his lips.

"It's been a long time since I've met a worthy opponent. Let's have a big fight!"

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Gin, who was standing next to him, felt a pang of jealousy. He never expected that the seemingly gentle and weak girl was actually a hidden battle maniac.

The following scene resembled a traditional battle scene from a tokusatsu drama.

Two giants engaged in a fierce battle in the forest. The cherry-red Susanoo wielded a huge woodcutter's knife, its blood-red blade gleaming coldly in the sunlight, while the golden colossus relied on its powerful fists, each strike of which resounded loudly.

"Hehe, this is interesting~"

The two girls in the driver's seat hummed in unison.

Uchiha Hikaru activated his crimson Susanoo, wielding a massive wood-chopping knife as if to cut down anything in its path. Each tremor caused the surrounding air and trees to creak and groan.

Mito Uzumaki, controlling a golden colossus, effortlessly deflected the cherry-red cleaver with her fists and seized the opportunity to launch a swift punch at Susanoo's lower body, causing Uchiha Hikaru inside Susanoo to furrow her brows.

In contrast to Uchiha Hikaru's immersive battle, Uzumaki Mito felt increasingly uneasy as the fight progressed. She could indeed sense the human trafficker's chakra from the giant Susanoo opposite her, but it wasn't strong. Instead, a cold and tyrannical aura made her increasingly uncomfortable.

So, during a lull in the battle, Mito Uzumaki quietly activated her Mind's Eye, narrowing her senses to focus on precise detection.

【Kagura's Mind's Eye】A ninjutsu exclusive to the Uzumaki clan, a super-wide target acquisition technique. After closing both eyes and opening the Mind's Eye, one can use chakra to sense abnormal behavior within a radius of tens of kilometers. In addition, if there is a known specific chakra, one can also sense the detailed location and movement, the number of people and their characteristics, and even the speed of movement.

"Huh? How come it's that girl controlling it?"

Through her perception using her inner eye, Mito Uzumaki accurately identified the master controlling Susanoo—not Gin Uchiha, whom she had initially assumed, but the seemingly pitiful girl being coerced by him. A chill ran down her spine.

"Could it be that the human trafficker was the one being coerced? Was the hand he raised just now actually a sign of surrender?"

Confused about the situation, Mito Uzumaki's little mind began to wander.

"Xiao Guang, can we stop fighting for now?"

Uchiha Gin, who was being shaken until he was dizzy, grabbed the girl's shoulder and pleaded,

"No!"

The girl, her temper flaring, refused without turning her head. How could she back down first? If anyone should stop, it should be the guy on the other end.

"Ugh, this is such a hassle~"

Seeing that verbal persuasion was ineffective, Uchiha Gin turned around helplessly, walked to the corner of the Girl Gundam's cockpit, stretched out a hand and placed it on the girl's cherry-red Susanoo, preparing to force his way out.

But to his surprise, when he prepared to exert his strength, the eye power reflected from Susanoo made him feel very close to it.

Raising an eyebrow, he tried to touch it with his own eye power and found that Susanoo did not resist at all and obediently accepted Uchiha Gin's eye power.

Seeing this strange situation, Uchiha Gin slapped his forehead and suddenly realized what was going on.

Yes, Xiao Guang's eyes have a part of his, so his pupil power is naturally the same. He then tried to open a door on Susanoo, but unexpectedly, as soon as the thought came to mind, a door automatically appeared on Susanoo in front of him.

"It really works!"

Without hesitation, Uchiha Gin pushed open the door and jumped out of the prison that had confined him for so long.

"Next, it's time to mediate the fight!"
