Konoha: Becoming a God Starting with Aburame

Chapter 156 Still Water, I'm here to negotiate!

Shisui covered his eyes and gasped for breath. Supported by the Bio-Armor on his body, he finally managed to use Kotoamatsukami.

"Thankfully, the bio-armor greatly reduced my burden; otherwise, I might not have been able to withstand it."

The doll that stopped the water could see the danger of the steam explosion.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

Shisui was also puzzled as to why this thing, which was clearly a puppet, could be influenced by Kotoamatsukami.

His Kotoamatsukami can completely alter the will of the person under his spell, allowing them to be manipulated unconsciously, even to the point of believing it is their right.

Kotoamatsukami comes in two types: one requires continuous operation that consumes chakra and ocular power.

Another type is a permanent rewriting that consumes a large amount of essential chakra eye power... not ordinary chakra eye power, but something closer to the essence.

Continuing to operate may still result in being broken. As long as the chakra eye power is cut off, the victim will realize that something is wrong.

Rather, it is a permanent rewriting, almost a personality modification, that deletes parts of the victim's thinking and then alters the blank areas of their mind, completely changing the person.

The current water-stopping control system is based on the continuous operation of the Kotoamatsukami (a powerful deity in Chinese mythology).

"It's stopped! The doll has stopped!"

"It's Shisui... it's Lord Shisui! Lord Shisui has awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan too!"

"Great! The Uchiha clan is the strongest! The Hozuki clan is just a defeated foe!"

The Uchiha clan members stared at Shisui with burning eyes, while also sizing each other up.

I originally thought that once the clan leader Fugaku awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, that was the limit for the Uchiha clan.

Unexpectedly, the unassuming Uchiha Shisui also awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.

What about the others? Did any of them awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan?

Fugaku Uchiha, who was about to return to provide assistance, breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this scene.

In the future he foresaw, there were scenarios where Hozuki Mangetsu would charge into the Uchiha territory, and scenarios where Hozuki Mangetsu would be stopped. It seems to be the best-case scenario right now.

If the Steam-Exploding Power puppet were allowed to charge into the Uchiha camp, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Kyokotsu, who was sent flying by a single punch from Susanoo's second form, was also shocked to see Hozuki Mangetsu instantly killed.

Then Kyokotsu looked at the second form of Susanoo and felt that the Uchiha clan was really too insidious, too insidious!

It's one thing for Fugaku Uchiha, who fought him, to hide his true strength; we can just assume that Fugaku Uchiha was always cautious.

However, there was a hidden figure within the Uchiha clan whose fighting strength was equal to that of Fugaku Uchiha, no… perhaps even stronger than Fugaku Uchiha, after all, he defeated Mangetsu Hozuki in one move…

Isn't this a bit too much?

After getting up, Kyokotsu immediately retreated to the Kirigakure camp. Something was wrong; he needed to reassess the strength of the Uchiha clan.

Furthermore, the fact that Hozuki Mangetsu was instantly defeated also made Kyokotsu hesitant.

Hozuki Mangetsu's mastery of the Heavenly Youkai was far superior to his, and his strength was also greater. Being able to defeat Hozuki Mangetsu instantly meant that he could also defeat Kyokotsu instantly.

"So all these days, I've been courting death in front of a guy who can easily beat me and another guy who can instantly kill me?"

Kyokotsu began to question his existence, feeling that the world was somewhat surreal and that everyone was playing him.

Fugaku Uchiha did not stop Kyokotsu from running away again, but instead went to the puppet of Steam Explosion.

He used a sealing technique to seal the dangerous doll away before finally letting out a sigh of relief.

"Shisui, you did a great job and have become a pillar of the Uchiha clan."

"This time it's all thanks to you, otherwise the Uchiha would have suffered a serious blow. You are the Uchiha's hero!"

"Hero! Hero! Hero!"

The Uchiha clan erupted in celebration. The first pair of Mangekyou Sharingan gave them confidence, allowing them to proudly hold their heads high under any circumstances.

The second pair of Mangekyou Sharingan brought hope, because with the second pair, there might be a third pair. If that's the case, why can't I become the owner of the third pair of Mangekyou Sharingan?

……

Compared to the Uchiha clan's celebration, the Kirigakure ninja were much quieter, lacking confidence in the face of the Uchiha's second pair of Mangekyou Sharingan.

Inside the Mist Ninja camp, Kyokotsu recalled the information the Uchiha had revealed during this battle.

Meanwhile, Hozuki Mangetsu appeared directly from the water.

"Damn it, that guy's illusion magic is too strong. It completely overwhelmed the will of the Steam Explosion Doll."

Upon seeing Hozuki Mangetsu appear, Kyokotsu exclaimed with some delight, "You escaped? That's great! Now we still have a chance to fight back."

"No, this is my ability after I became a Heavenly Demon. Most of my power is in the puppet, but it is still sealed away."

After Hozuki Mangetsu reappeared, he took a deep breath. This time, he had underestimated the Uchiha clan. The number one ninja clan in the ninja world was indeed no joke.

That's too powerful, and too insidious!

Even now, Hozuki Mangetsu has not come up with a way to resist Shisui Kotoamatsukami.

"Stop gambling. The Uchiha situation is too bizarre. Can you guarantee that a third pair of Mangekyou Sharingan won't appear?"

Hozuki Mangetsu's words silenced Kyokotsu; if it were from the beginning, Kyokotsu would naturally have been able to guarantee it.

But now that Fugaku Uchiha has activated the second form of Susanoo, and Shisui Uchiha has instantly defeated Mangan Hozuki, things are hard to say.

Who knows how deep the waters run within the Uchiha clan? Perhaps there are even stronger Uchiha clan members hiding in the shadows right now.

"Then let's cease hostilities and report the situation here to Lord Mizukage."

"It is indeed necessary to report this to the Mizukage. I also need to retrieve the sealed portion."

Hozuki Mangetsu felt a sense of crisis, as the sealed Steam Explosion Doll occupied most of his chakra.

If it were taken to Konoha, Hozuki Mangetsu would have almost no chance of being taken back.

It will be virtually impossible to compete for the title of Lord of Demons and Monsters in the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons in the future.

We have to think of a solution!

After Kyokotsu and Hozuki Mangetsu relayed the information about this place to the Mizukage, they quickly received a reply.

"Lord Mizukage has already forgiven us for not breaking through the Uchiha defenses. Those two pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan are enough to prove the power of the Heavenly Demons."

"Next, the Mizukage plans to cease hostilities with Konoha and devote all his energy to developing Kirigakure and cultivating more Heavenly Demons."

Hozuki Mangetsu gleaned a lot of information from this; it seems the Third Mizukage is preparing to accelerate the Hyakki Yagyō (Night Parade of One Hundred Demons) plan, and has therefore abandoned any further entanglement with Konoha.

"We need to retrieve the sealed Steam Explosion Doll, or we'll be at a disadvantage."

Hozuki Mangetsu reappeared on the battlefield, heading towards the Uchiha clan.

The appearance of Hozuki Mangetsu aroused the vigilance of the Uchiha clan.

"Wasn't he defeated and sealed away by Lord Shisui? How did he reappear?!"

The Uchiha clan members were genuinely terrified to see Hozuki Mangetsu reappear.

Does an unstoppable, infinitely explosive ninjutsu truly exist in the ninja world?

Uchiha Shisui was somewhat surprised, as he was certain that his Kotoamatsukami had indeed hit Hozuki Mangetsu.

"Shisui, I'm here to negotiate!"

Hozuki Mangetsu saw Uchiha Shisui looking at him and quickly said something.

He was genuinely afraid that Uchiha Shisui would unleash another Kotoamatsukami.

It's unstoppable, it's really unstoppable!
