The Great Hero Uchiha

However, these large drills still could not completely penetrate Susanoo's flesh, because Susanoo also has the ability to regenerate.

Seeing that his attack had failed, the Fourth Kazekage immediately focused his attention on power.

Several large drill bits were fused into a giant drill bit, which pierced through Susanoo's flesh and blood, but was blocked by Susanoo's bones.

Uchiha Miyuki ignored the giant spiral spear that was trying to pierce Susanoo's defense, because he knew very well that although the spiral spear looked like a whole, it was actually made entirely of gold dust. No matter how many times he broke it with conventional force, it would be meaningless, as the Fourth Kazekage could restore it at any time.

The drawback of the still-developing Susanoo is that its attack methods are too limited, but its advantages are its amazing strength and defense.

Especially Susanoo with the added benefit of the Corpse Bone Pulse.

【Yasaka Magatama】

A massive, earthen-yellow magatama gathered in Susanoo's palm, but before Susanoo could throw it out, the giant gold-flecked drill transformed into a golden ribbon, which, under the control of the Fourth Kazekage, attempted to bind Susanoo's arm. However, Susanoo used brute force to tear it off, but the power of the [Yasaka Magatama] was also affected and weakened as a result.

The Fourth Kazekage immediately manipulated the gold dust to form a thick cubic wall in front of him. The weakened [Yasaka Magatama] still tore through the gold dust cube and attacked the Fourth Kazekage's body.

At this moment, the Fourth Kazekage also completed the hand seals.

[Earth Release: Earth Dragon Concealment Technique]

It was obvious that the Fourth Kazekage had realized that ordinary Earth Release techniques could not block the [Yasaka Magatama], which is why he chose the [Earth Dragon Concealment Technique] to dodge it.

Compared to [Submerged in Earth], [Earth Dragon Concealment Technique] descends much faster. However, even so... the Yasaka Magatama was just a hair's breadth away from directly hitting the Fourth Kazekage. Fortunately, the previous Gold Sand Cube further reduced the speed of the Yasaka Magatama, otherwise! The Yasaka Magatama would definitely have taken the Fourth Kazekage's life.

Ordinary Susanoo wouldn't be this strong.

Under normal circumstances, the Fourth Kazekage would definitely be able to fight against the third form of Susanoo. However, Uchiha Miyuki's Susanoo is different. It is not simply a creation of Yin Release power, but rather it is enhanced by Yang Release power through the Shikotsumyaku (Corpse Bone Pulse). This not only increases the strength of the skeleton, but also greatly enhances the strength of each form of Susanoo!

He looked at Uchiha Miyuki, who was staring at him from within Susanoo.

The Fourth Kazekage was utterly shocked.

Is this the power of a kaleidoscope?

Is this the power that Madara Uchiha, the legendary god of the ninja world, once possessed?

At that moment, he understood! He had no chance of winning against Uchiha Miyuki, the Fifth Hokage. This realization made him extremely unwilling. He immediately used all his strength to activate the gold dust, forming a huge, dazzling golden sand wave that swallowed Susanoo. Then, he gathered all his chakra and activated his strongest ninjutsu to date.

[Magnetic Escape·Golden Burial]

The terrifying weight acted on Susanoo, gradually shattering his armor and crushing his flesh.

Although it broke through Susanoo's three layers of defense, it was ultimately unable to shake Susanoo's skeleton.

Furthermore, Susanoo's flesh and blood were rapidly regenerating, and he used his brute force to overturn the gold dust on his body. However, because he lacked a lower body, he could not be pushed out of the [Gold Dust Burial]. This gave the Fourth Kazekage a bright idea. He had obviously found Susanoo's weakness of not having a lower body. He immediately manipulated the gold dust to bypass Susanoo's defense from underground and attacked Uchiha Miyuki's main body.

However, Uchiha Miyuki had been waiting for this moment.

A large amount of chakra had already been mobilized, and it was mixed with some natural energy. This natural energy was not enough for him to enter Sage Mode, but it could enhance the power of his ninjutsu!

It is very dangerous for others to do this.

However, he already possessed a high degree of precise control over his brain due to its extraordinary nature, and this ability was further enhanced after he fused with Hyuga clan cells.

That's why he dared to use natural energy in this way.

[Immortal Technique - Earth Escape Barrier - Earth Prison Hall]

It wasn't about trapping the enemy or protecting himself, but rather about directly impacting the ground beneath his feet, creating an earthen prison even stronger than steel, thus sealing all the gold dust controlled by the Fourth Kazekage underground! From the start of the battle, Uchiha Miyuki had been setting up a plan to block the Fourth Kazekage's Magnet Release, and his use of Susanoo was also preparation for this moment.

Uchiha Miyuki immediately released Susanoo and stared at the Fourth Kazekage.

"Your Magnet Release has been sealed off... Do you still want to continue?"

"I……"

"Are you suggesting that we can extract iron sand from underground? If you're not satisfied, then give it a try. I've already sealed this area with earth magic."

"I……"

"You still possess other ninjutsu, so you still have the strength to fight? What makes you have the illusion that I'm already using my full power? Fourth Kazekage."

The Fourth Kazekage shook his head with a somber expression.

"Wait for me to finish. What I was trying to say was that you won this battle, Fifth Hokage."

P.S.: Chapter Two

225. He's doomed if he gets here!

Uchiha Miyuki felt slightly embarrassed.

"Now you understand, we in Konoha don't need any conspiracy to scheme against you."

Although the Fourth Kazekage was reluctant to admit it, he understood that what Uchiha Miyuki said was indeed the truth.

At the same time, she was secretly a little jealous.

Konoha not only has the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze and the Fifth Hokage Miyuki Uchiha, but also Kakashi, who became a Jonin at the age of twelve just like Miyuki. Meanwhile, Sunagakure is getting weaker with each generation. It's not that the people of the Land of Wind are incompetent, but that their economy and environment are too bad, and they can only rely on gold mining to alleviate their financial pressure.

We finally managed to establish import and export trade with the Land of Fire, which alleviated this problem, but now this kind of thing has happened again.

The issue of the One-Tailed Jinchuriki cannot be ignored, and the future trade issues with the Land of Fire must also be considered.

That's why he hopes to solve the problem through his own abilities.

Uchiha Miyuki looked at the Fourth Kazekage.

"Let's stop here! Fourth Kazekage, continuing this war will only affect the future peace and development of both countries."

He paused for a moment, then added.

"However, this matter is indeed related to Konoha. As a sign of sincerity, I will personally lead the Anbu into the Land of Rain to resolve this issue."

The Fourth Kazekage glanced at Uchiha Miyuki with surprise, pondered for a moment, and then spoke.

“We use the Land of Rivers as the boundary, and any ninja from either village who crosses the Land of Rivers can be killed on the spot.”

Regardless of whether Konoha has other conspiracies, with the Land of Rivers as a dividing line, Sunagakure has enough room and time to react.

Uchiha Miyuki nodded.

"You noticed it too? This time, the fighting on the border is happening in a rather strange way."

"Indeed, it's a bit strange."

In the past ninja system, the two sides would never have been able to talk so peacefully. They would have fought each other as soon as they met, and only after a victor was decided would they be able to discuss other issues. The reason they can talk now is because import and export trade has linked the two countries together. In particular, the Land of Wind relies more on this new economic system than the Land of Fire, which has given Uchiha Miyuki an opportunity.

Both sides withdrew towards the border of the river under the orders of their respective shadows.

Black Zetsu wanted to use the same old trick to incite conflict between the two sides, but now that both sides' forces have gathered together, it won't be so easy to cause trouble in secret.

After several attempts, the White Zetsu was almost exposed.

Black Zetsu had no choice but to stop and urgently contact Nagato again.

"Something's wrong, Payne."

Nagato frowned.

Why is it always 'bad news'?! Can't you bring me any good news?!

Nagato realized it without Black Zetsu even having to say a word.

"The plan failed?"

"They were clearly about to fight, but the Fourth Kazekage took the initiative to challenge the Fifth Hokage to a duel. He was defeated in the end, and now both sides have withdrawn from the Land of Rivers and are going to enter the Land of Rain together." After a pause, Black Zetsu added, "The Fifth Hokage fabricated a 'plot for the Land of Rain to annex the Land of Wind,' and shifted the blame for the One-Tailed Jinchuriki incident onto Hanzo."

Nagato frowned; there was one thing about this intelligence that he couldn't understand.

"Since he was able to defeat the Fourth Kazekage, why didn't he take the opportunity to directly crush Sunagakure instead of drawing the war to the Land of Rain?!"

Black Zetsu also suspected that Nagato might have been exposed, but he quickly dismissed the possibility.

Because Nagato had never had direct contact with Uchiha Miyuki, and apart from this war, Konoha's Anbu had never entered the Land of Rain.

As for the fact that Danzo had contact with the Akatsuki organization...

Black Zetsu definitely knew about this.

However, the Akatsuki organization had already been destroyed by Hanzo, and even its leader Yahiko was dead. Moreover, Danzo was unaware of Nagato's existence.

Even if Uchiha Miyuki found some clues from the slightest hints, nearly five years have passed since that incident. If Uchiha Miyuki had any doubts, he would definitely have sent the Anbu to infiltrate the Land of Rain to investigate. However, in all this time, the Konoha Anbu have never appeared near the Land of Rain.

That's why Black Zetsu never doubted whether Nagato had been exposed, nor did he expect that Uchiha Miyuki was coming for Nagato this time.

Instead, he analyzed Uchiha Miyuki's intentions based on the intelligence he had.

"That's how the Fifth Hokage does things. He never likes direct combat and always uses strategy to defeat his enemies at the lowest cost."

Payne nodded.

"Since they want to come, let them come! We can take this opportunity to eliminate the threat of Uchiha Miyuki."

Black Zetsu pondered for a moment.

Although the battle with the Fourth Kazekage did not force Uchiha Miyuki to reveal his full strength, even if he was hiding his strength, it was still within the range of the Mangekyou Sharingan. The reason for this is that Black Zetsu has been secretly sending White Zetsu to monitor Uchiha Shisui's situation, and so far Uchiha Shisui has not awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.

As for why it wasn't about monitoring the entire Uchiha clan?

Because of the number of White Zetsu.

The Gedo Mazo is currently just an empty shell; it doesn't have much chakra and can't create more White Zetsu.

The current White Zetsu were all created by Madara Uchiha over the past few decades, and their numbers are not very large.

Aside from the issue of the number of White Zetsu, Black Zetsu hadn't anticipated that Uchiha Miyuki would grow so quickly, managing to bypass the limitations between the brothers and fuse to create the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan. Furthermore, it was surprising that Uchiha Fugaku was willing to give his own Mangekyou Sharingan to Uchiha Miyuki. Otherwise, if Uchiha Miyuki had tried to steal Uchiha Fugaku's Mangekyou Sharingan, Black Zetsu would have been able to detect some information.

After quickly filtering this information through his mind, Black Zetsu immediately nodded in agreement.

He simply couldn't believe that Uchiha Miyuki, with his Mangekyou Sharingan blinded and only using the ordinary three-tomoe Sharingan, could defeat the Gedo Mazo and Nagato, who possessed the Rinnegan.

This is the reason for this perception.

Part of the reason is that Uchiha Miyuki hid it well.

Furthermore, Black Zetsu was present and secretly watching when Konoha destroyed Hashirama's cells. Just in case, he even secretly spied on Uchiha Miyuki taking a bath! He confirmed that Uchiha Miyuki did not have the Hashirama face that would be present after fusing with Hashirama's cells. In addition, he secretly collected some Yamato's cells and tested them. He found that the strength of the Hashirama cells in Yamato's body alone was not enough to help Uchiha Miyuki restore his Mangekyou Sharingan.

Uchiha Miyuki was able to regain his Mangekyou Sharingan after fusing with Yamato cells because he also had cells from several other clans fused into his body.

Black Zetsu believed that under these circumstances, as long as Nagato personally took action, Uchiha Miyuki would undoubtedly die no matter how you looked at it.

And afterwards, they could try to frame Sunagakure.
