The Uchiha's Path to the Top, Starting from Konoha

Chapter 83 I Want to See Corpses Everywhere

Facing the southwestern defense line of the Land of Wind, the Land of Fire sent Uchiha Takeo in haste, and then left just as quickly.

The disheveled Aburame Insect looked at the Sunagakure ninja soldiers, who were lying dead in pieces and whose fighting spirit had been completely shattered. Behind her sunglasses, her eyes showed a deep sense of shock.

The opposing Second Kazekage and a Kage-level ninja were instantly killed by the Two-Tails in its armor. The puppet techniques and sand manipulation ninjutsu that had troubled them for so long were nothing more than toys for children in front of Uchiha Muan.

This unparalleled power filled Aburame Mushi and Inuzuka Jin with both relief and regret.

"It's a pity that Shimura Isshin died on the eve of victory."

………………

Northwest defense line, near the Land of Grass, Konoha Ninja Army base.

Most of the Konoha ninjas, their faces covered in dust from their journey, gazed with curiosity and excitement at the tailed beasts lying lazily in the distance, and unanimously felt the philosophy of life that greatness is beauty.

However, the atmosphere in the ninja army's central camp was extremely oppressive and somber.

"The Fire Core Minister has been killed in battle, and a quarter of the eight hundred ninja soldiers have been lost?!"

"They suffered heavy losses because of a mere third-generation heir of Iwagakure?!"

"Are you all just sitting around doing nothing?!"

Inside the tent, a cold, sharp shout rang out. Uchiha Shira, Hyuga Ashizaburo, and Sarutobi Sasuke all lowered their heads, not daring to utter a sound in front of Uchiha Takeo, who was not even half their age.

After his cold gaze lingered on the three of them for a full three seconds, Uchiha Wu'an waved his hand and said, "I'll handle the Third Tsuchikage. The rest is up to you."

"Move the entire army out!"

"Within an hour, I will leave the Iwagakure ninja army with corpses strewn across the fields and flames soaring into the sky!"

"Here you go!"

With this order issued, the Konoha ninja army mobilized in full force, and their massive formation alarmed Iwagakure, which was planning to launch another attack.

With a large nose in the middle of his face, a very short stature, wearing a green striped vest and a straw hat, the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, floated in the air, coldly watching the approaching Konoha ninja army. When he saw the Two-Tails running in the air, his eyes widened, and the ominous premonition in his heart grew stronger.

"Isn't that the Two-Tails from Kumogakure?!"

"It actually fell into Konoha's hands!"

Onoki soared into the sky. Knowing the power of the tailed beasts, he dared not let the Two-Tails fire indiscriminately in the air. Just like his Dust Release: Particle Style, if the Two-Tails were to fire a few more tailed beast balls that could shatter mountains, his ninja army would fall apart.

Below, the Iwagakure ninja army, Onoki's second-in-command took over command of the troops and began to systematically hand over combat missions to deal with the Konoha ninja army's attack.

At this moment, the ninja army's encampment in Iwagakure was a huge raised platform formed by ninjutsu. The deputy looked down at the Konoha ninja army charging towards him and shouted.

"Earth Release: Earth Flow!"

Groups of Iwagakure ninjas punched the ground, shattering it into countless fine sands that formed flowing river sand that swept down from above like an avalanche towards the Konoha ninja army.

"Earth Release: Earthquake Core!"

Sarutobi Sasuke waved his hand, and the Earth Release ninja behind him immediately understood. Multiple Earth Cores were activated simultaneously, and the rising rocks provided a foothold for the Konoha ninja army.

Immediately afterward, Sarutobi Sasuke roared.

"Wind Release: Wind Slicing Technique!"

The Wind Release ninjas of the Konoha Ninja Army can open their mouths and exhale wind, turning it into sharp blades with enough power to slice through an enemy's flesh and bone in an instant.

Behind the wind blade, Uchiha Yoshito waved his hand, and the elite assault team, mainly composed of members of the Uchiha clan, followed closely behind, stepping on the rolling mud and sand on the ground.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

Dozens of enormous fireballs, each two meters in diameter, accompanied by rolling heat waves, directly shattered the earthen wall that was blocking the wind blades with [Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall]. The front-line Iwagakure ninja troops behind them continued to slam their weapons into the ground.

"Earth Release: Ten Thousand Mile Earth Flow Wall!"

An even larger earthen wall rose from the ground, blocking the exploding fireballs. The troops in the center of Iwagakure, under the command of the village's deputy, formed hand seals and cast spells.

"Earth Release: Earth Rising Spear!"

The Iwagakure ninja in the front row also rushed to the top of the earth wall and unleashed their [Earth Release: Rock Cannon Technique] in unison.

In an instant, countless small pebbles emerged, growing larger in the air and forming solid cannonballs that hurtled towards Konoha's elite troops.

"Watch your step, everyone!"

Hyuga Ashizaburo, who was part of Konoha's elite assault team, let out a roar and, together with the Hyuga ninja in the team, unleashed a massive wave of energy from his palms, shattering most of the rock spears protruding from the ground. A small portion was dodged by the elite troops.

"Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique!"

Led by Uchiha Yomo, all the Uchiha ninjas unleashed a barrage of flames from their mouths, like seeds of balsam flowers that would be launched at the slightest touch, completely destroying the oncoming rock cannons.

"The Uchiha clan possesses Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"

More than twenty winding fire dragons soared into the sky, smashing through the vast earthen wall. Their remaining power vanished, and their gaping fangs turned all the enemies they bit into ashes.

In the sweltering heat, the deputy of Iwagakure frowned, glancing up at the Third Tsuchikage who was still locked in battle with the Two-Tails in the sky, a look of worry appearing in his eyes.

In the early stages, Onoki relied heavily on his absolute aerial advantage and powerful artillery output. His Dust Release: Particle Style Technique, which fell from the sky, would injure any ninja who grazed it or kill them if it touched it. His first achievement was killing Uchiha Hikaru, who was caught off guard and unable to dodge.

The terrifying power made Sarutobi Sasuke and Hyuga Ashizaburo hesitant to go all out. Even Uchiha Yomo, who arrived later, couldn't do anything to Onoki who was flying around.

With the Two-Tails holding off Onoki and Uchiha Takeoshi providing support, the Konoha Ninja Army's fighting power was fully unleashed. The three, with no more reservations, stormed into the Iwagakure Ninja Army's base like a hot knife through butter.

Every second, every minute, someone is dying in bloodshed.

Fear, timidity, excitement, screams!

Only the Uchiha ninjas, advancing over the corpses of their enemies, danced on the edge of a blade and sang amidst the flames. With their cold, scarlet Sharingan eyes swirling, no one dared to meet their gaze.

"Don't be so arrogant, Uchiha!"

"Earth Release: Rigid Form Technique!"

A Kage from Iwagakure used an Earth Release ninjutsu developed by the Second Tsuchikage. A massive rock monster instantly materialized from the ground, its enormous size of over ten meters prompting Uchiha Yoto to scoff disdainfully.

Just as he was about to unleash an advanced Fire Release ninjutsu, Hyuga Ashizaki, who had killed his rival Kage-level opponent with a set of Gentle Fist Technique: Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms, exhaled as if to vent his pent-up anger and threw a punch that was even stronger than his brother Hyuga Ashikaga's.

"Eight Trigrams - Mountain-Shattering Strike!"

The chakra beam, as thick as a bucket, instantly shattered the rock giant, sending rocks flying everywhere. The residual force even injured the Iwagakure Kage who couldn't dodge in time.

Uchiha Yomo stared in astonishment at Hyuga Ashizawa, who usually kept his true abilities hidden, finally revealing the true colors of a powerful clan leader from the Warring States period!

"Fire Release: Great Flame Technique!"

Sarutobi Sasuke, who arrived shortly after, unleashed a fierce burst of flames, instantly creating a fire prison that trapped the Iwagakure Kage. Seeing this, Uchiha Yomo also unleashed three fire dragons, rushing towards the enemy.

"Eight Trigrams - Empty Wall Palm!"

With his pure white eyes wide open, Hyuga Ashizashi could see the movements of the Iwagakure Kage as if they were patterns on the palm of his hand. He struck the opponent's body with a single palm strike, and the ensuing fire dragon devoured him completely.

"Third Tsuchikage, do you see that?"

"This is what happens when you jump around recklessly!"

A figure emerged from the void and grabbed Onoki by the throat. With a gentle squeeze in his bloodshot eyes, the Third Tsuchikage, who would later leave a lasting mark on history and bring glory to Iwagakure, thus took his final bow.

"Leave a few people behind and tell them to go back and inform Iwagakure that Konoha will set the rules for the ninja world in five days."

Using a ninja tool scroll to collect Onoki's corpse, Uchiha Takeo gazed indifferently at the sea of ​​fire below. Amidst the shouts of the Konoha ninja army, he rode away on his tailed beast.
