Naruto: Uchiha is not Raikage!

Chapter 266 Kiyoshi vs. Shennong, Obito's Confidence Soars (Three-in-One)

"you……"

Xiao Nan subconsciously wanted to ask Qing Si why he suddenly appeared here, but then she suddenly shut her mouth, realizing that she had asked a stupid question.

Uchiha Kiyoshi's speed is incredibly fast. Not only does he possess powerful space-time ninjutsu like the "Flying Thunder God Technique," but his physical body is also extremely formidable, amplified by lightning-style ninjutsu.

For example, the "Lightning Body Flicker" technique, which many ninjas in Kumogakure are skilled in, is a basic ability that uses "Lightning" chakra to activate the physical body.

"If you can stand up, then stand up."

Qing Si turned back.

He raised his hand, and a swift arc of electricity shot out from his palm, piercing towards Shennong.

puff!
Blood erupted from Shennong's left chest, almost exposing the exposed tendons inside.

The next moment, his muscles and nerves began to twitch, and in the blink of an eye, he was back to normal.

Qing Si had anticipated this outcome; he had merely been testing Shennong's defensive capabilities.

After Naruto punched Shennong several times and realized he couldn't break through his defenses, he immediately gathered chakra and unleashed a "Rasengan" at Shennong.

Shennong didn't try to avoid it; he took the attack head-on.

The result was only superficial abrasions, which quickly healed to their original state.

"Such power must require a lot of chakra. It's unbelievable that your body can withstand such a burden at your age."

Shennong looked at Qing Si.

Even children who have just entered the ninja academy know that the more Lightning Release chakra used, the better the effect.

However, this is determined by the cellular and meridian systems, which determine the upper limit of chakra input.

Exceeding this limit will not only fail to produce good results, but will also have the opposite effect.

"However... no matter how powerful your physical body was before, it could not compare to my ultimate physical body."

Shennong's tone was rough, his figure was over two meters tall, and his thick black hair hung down behind his waist, like a ferocious lion standing upright, exuding an aura of authority without anger.

"Yeah."

Kiyoshi turned his head.

The eyeshadow became increasingly heavy, as if it were adorned with ink shadows.

A pale green, shimmering "Cloak of Immortal Arts" draped over Kiyoshi's body, with illusory serpents and black arcs of electricity intertwining endlessly.

The keratinized fleshy horns protrude from Kiyoshi's forehead, giving him a more natural aura.

"This chakra..."

Shennong's expression turned serious.

After accumulating a large amount of dark chakra, his overall qualities improved significantly.

His perception abilities were also beyond what they had ever been before; he could sense the passing of the wind, as if some kind of energy permeating the air was constantly merging into Kiyoshi's body.

But this feeling is very vague.

"Hmph, 'Celestial Arts,' huh."

Shennong instantly understood; he knew that this power obtained from nature could amplify the damage of ninjutsu and taijutsu several times over.

If it were Shennong before he obtained the Dark Chakra, he would still have reservations.

just now……

"Rise, Zero-Tail!"

Shennong shouted loudly.

Thick, inky black chakra emerged from Makado's body, billowing black smoke.

"What is that...?"

After being rescued by Kiyoshi, Konan recreated paper with chakra, which formed wings that swirled behind her.

"I don't know, I have a bad feeling about this."

When Yahiko lifted his pants, he saw that the skin on his body had been scorched by Shennong's flames, and a yellow liquid was oozing out.

He took out a bandage, gritted his teeth, performed emergency treatment, and stood up.

"Yahiko, are you alright?!"

Nagato quickly came up behind Kiyoshi, looking at Konan and Yahiko with concern.

"I'm fine."

Yahiko shook his head.

Fortunately, his hands were not injured, and he still has the ability to form hand seals and release ninjutsu.

Shennong saw them gathered together but did not stop them.

Rather, it suited his wishes perfectly.

If all the prey dies at once, wouldn't it be impossible to extract anything from the land?

You have to take it slow, instilling the deepest fear in your prey and providing them with the most negative emotions!

"Hahaha……"

Shennong laughed heartily.

"People can despair. When dominated by sadness, they will feel anger and hatred towards the root of their misfortune, and all of this will generate dark chakra."

Shennong spoke calmly, his voice echoing throughout the hall.

As if in response to his words, Makado also underwent the transformation.

"I am Zero Tail... When the world is filled with war and darkness grows in people's hearts, I will be resurrected. I will devour the infinite darkness in people's hearts and be born, and then grow infinitely."

His voice had become old and hoarse.

Makado was no longer humanoid, but a slowly writhing monster, its body dark brown, yet without any visible scales.

Resembling neither a snake nor an insect, its enormous body was coiled and curled up together.

At the head, there is a white mask marked with the word "zero," and several red hairs on its head.

The narrow eyes on the mask stared intently at Kiyoshi.

He has a certain ability to see through people's hearts.

The ominous and evil chakra that Kiyoshi exuded was even more powerful than that of Shennong, who controlled him!
"What's wrong? Zero Tail."

Shennong frowned.

He possesses the "Zero-Tail Technique," making it impossible for the Zero-Tail to betray him.

"The darkness he possesses far surpasses yours."

"Oh?"

Shennong was surprised.

"So, they really are the inherently evil Uchiha clan."

Shennong didn't dwell on this question. The chakra of the Uchiha clan is almost always extremely cold and yin, so it's normal for Zero-Tails to react.

So, how much dark chakra can Uchiha Kiyoshi provide for him?

"Darkness? No, no, no, my heart holds only the Will of Fire."

Kiyoshi slowly shook his head.

He bit his fingertip, slapped it on the ground, and the white snake in his sleeve vanished instantly.

What appeared in the spot was a huge white snake shadow.

She stared with dark eyes, inside which was a golden vertical line, and the fleshy horns on her head absorbed all the negative emotions around her.

"Ok?"

Shennong sensed something was wrong.

Why is the rate at which dark chakra is accumulating decreasing?
"Your summoned beast is able to steal my power."

Several tiny tentacles emerged from the wriggling, dark brown skin of the Zero-tailed Serpent and quickly reached out to grab the white snake.

To absorb these negative emotions in front of him is a blatant provocation!
Roar!
The white snake opened her mouth and spat out a long, fiery tongue from her gaping maw.

Summoning beasts can also use ninjutsu.

Through years of contact with Qing Si, the White Snake, influenced by what she saw and heard, learned a few escape techniques.

With its massive size, its power becomes terrifying in an instant.

Most of the tentacles that reached out were swallowed by the flames.

"Zero tail!"

Shennong shouted, wanting Zero-Tail to use a more powerful move.

However, before his voice could spread out of the air, his jaw instantly felt an irresistible force.

boom!
Shennong's body was kicked away by Qing Si.

Rumble!
Under this force, his body broke through wall after wall, passed straight through the royal fortress, and fell to the ground from the air with a roar.

Click.

Shennong, who had fallen, put his bones back in place, and his injuries were rapidly healing under the influence of dark chakra.

He looked up at the lofty Kiyoshi and clenched his fist.

Unforgivable.

They actually dared to stop him time and time again.

Who is he?
King of the Sky Kingdom!
"Wangdu Fortress!"

Shennong waved his hand.

The cannons of the royal capital city, drifting in the sky, began to accumulate chakra and emit a bright light.

Since Kiyoshi sent his companions down below, he would destroy them in front of Kiyoshi.

Under the ultimate destructive weapon like the Royal Capital Fortress, a single shot from its largest cannon, the Energy Super Cannon, can destroy an entire mountain!

The damage from the so-called "Tailed Beast Ball" is nothing more than this.

Moreover, the energy of the super heavy cannon comes from Zero Tail.

As long as Zero-Tails has enough dark chakra, it can use the super energy cannon without limit.

In war, the one thing that is never lacking is dark chakra; in fact, it can be said that the more you fight, the more you get, and it is inexhaustible.

Before the energy from the missing shot is completely depleted, the new energy supply is estimated to have already been replenished.

This is why the previous king of the Sky Country dared to confront the Five Great Ninja Nations.

Ultimately, they made a fatal mistake, and after being destroyed by Konoha, most of their records were lost in the annals of ninja history.

That's why Shennong went to Konoha to retrieve the forbidden techniques that belonged to their Land of the Sky.

Even if others knew the Zero-Tail Resurrection Scroll and the method of the "Zero-Tail Technique," they would find it difficult to perform such an operation.

Just like the "Flying Thunder God Technique," it requires the user to have extremely high talent and ability.

"Ms. Misaka, are the cannons on this pointed at us?"

As soon as Sarutobi Asuma looked up, he could see the gleaming cannon muzzles pointed at his village, and he felt extremely anxious.

If one of those shots hit, would they still be alive?
People around fled in panic, but unfortunately most of them were sick and had limited mobility. Some even aggravated their injuries during the escape and died on the way before they could get out.

The Akatsuki members, draped in black robes and drenched in sweat, distanced themselves from these people.

"do not be afraid."

Mikoto shook her head.

At this distance, it would be difficult for them to escape.

How long does it take to cross a mountain?
Moreover, Mikoto couldn't bring herself to abandon Kiyoshi and run away.

"I hope Kiyoshi will be alright up there, Mikoto-sensei."

Yuhi Kurenai asked.

Since Minazuki-sensei left, Mikoto has been their team leader Jonin.

As for her, she is naturally addressed as "teacher".

"He is located inside that so-called royal fortress, so he shouldn't be in any danger."

Mikoto began setting up the barrier.

Sitting idly by and waiting to die is not her way of enduring suffering.

"Asuma, use your 'Flying Swallow' to dig a temporary shelter, then I'll use a barrier to block the remaining shockwaves."

Mikoto opened her mouth.

They are not in the very center, so they should only need to withstand a portion of the aftershocks.

"Yes, Ms. Misaka."

"Flying Swallow" is Sarutobi Asuma's strongest new technique.

Although it's only a B-rank, for Sarutobi Asuma, even if he releases some A-rank ninjutsu, it might not be as powerful as "Flying Swallow".

This is a higher-level use of "Chakra Flow". When the injected "Wind" Release chakra reaches the limit of "Form Change", his brass knuckle blade-shaped chakra blade will become like a flying swallow with a pair of outstretched wings.

hum!
Sarutobi Asuma diligently dug into the soil, and within a few breaths, a spacious cave entrance appeared.

"Ms. Mikoto, can we bring the other villagers over?"

Kurenai hesitated for a moment before asking.

Mikoto was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Kurenai immediately called everyone nearby to come in, saying that this place could withstand the damage from the cannon.

Instantly, a large number of people rushed over, scrambling to get there.

Sarutobi Asuma was stunned for a moment, and before he could even catch his breath, he knew that his workload had increased again.

Alright, keep digging!

As they raced against time to build a temporary shelter, Kiyoshi witnessed this scene from the high platform.

With the power of ninjutsu, digging a hole would be an easy task.

Their approach was indeed the best one.

Then... Kiyoshi shifted his gaze to Shennong, who was controlling the royal fortress below.

He doesn't like being threatened.

"White Serpent, destroy the control center here."

Qing Si gave the order. Immediately, thousands of tiny hands appeared on Lingwei's body, attempting to stop the white snake.

Kiyoshi's hand became incredibly long, directly grabbing Zero's white mask.

Software modification!
As his arm returned to its normal length, Zero was also brought before Kiyoshi.

Zero-Tail's dense tentacles transformed into dark brown human hands, attempting to seize Kiyoshi.

The electric arcs swirling around Kiyoshi scorched and paralyzed these tentacles.

The remaining part, the illusory serpents extending from the "Celestial Cloak" bit these tentacles with their fangs.

"If you don't want this place to be completely destroyed, assist the White Serpent."

After saying that, Kiyoshi dragged Zero down with him.

boom!
Kiyoshi's figure sparked flames due to friction during the high-speed descent.

Shennong's pupils contracted. The amplification from the "Eight Gates Formation" and his medical ninjutsu made him incredibly fast.

They left in an instant.

Rumble.

The ground in this area has cracked, revealing huge, deep holes.

The surrounding mountains and forests became crooked and were almost uprooted by the shock wave.

"White snake?"

Konan heard a loud noise downwind and knew that Kiyoshi had taken the monster known as Zero-Tail down with him.

"It must be that giant white snake."

Yahiko shared his guess.

The name couldn't be more straightforward; it could only refer to Kiyoshi's summoned beast.

The white snake glanced at the three with its indifferent snake eyes and slowly nodded.

Then it kept rampaging through the area, searching for the control center.

"Konan, you take Yahiko and fly down first. I'll follow this summoned beast to find the control center."

Nagato spoke.

He knows all five elemental ninjutsu, including most mainstream ninjutsu.

These were all things that Jiraiya taught him.

Nagato could vaguely sense how much Jiraiya valued him.

It seems to be because of the "Child of Prophecy".

That does make sense. Madara said he was the reincarnation of the Sage of Six Paths' will, so isn't that the so-called "Child of Prophecy"?
But now, Nagato is more concerned about his comrades.

"Nagato..."

Yahiko frowned, looked at his injured legs, and then looked down at the chaotic village through the gap Kiyoshi had created.

"You must be careful, Xiao Nan. Take me down there. Qing Si needs support, and the innocent villages below need us too."

Yahiko grabbed Minami's huge paper wings.

Konan nodded, told Nagato to be careful, and then glided down from there with Yahiko.

"This is the direction."

Using the slippery marks on the ground as a guide, Nagato quickly followed.

After he left, a masked man emerged from the shadows.

"Hehe, it seems that the friendship between Nagato and the other two has been elevated once again."

Ah Fei said.

After leaving from below, Obito moved up here to observe the situation.

Once the time is right, he will go and seduce Nagato to carry out the "Eye of the Moon Plan" together.

Madara's "Rinnegan" in Nagato's body was a crucial part of Madara's resurrection.

Madara could only be resurrected if Nagato used the "Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique".

However, Ah Fei was a little curious: was the freckles that Ban was resurrected with this technique old age spots, or spots from his youth?

"The more love there is, the more intense the hatred will be when things are overthrown."

As someone who's been through it, Obito understands this feeling.

Therefore, he was not impatient.

"Heh, the power of 'Celestial Arts' really brought this guy good luck."

Obito looked down at Kiyoshi, who was fighting alongside Shennong and Zero-Tails, and a mocking smile crept onto his lips.

Obito, who has "Hashirama cells", can feel his chakra level increasing every time he wakes up.

He could feel himself merging more and more deeply with the "Hashiro cells".

The face on the chest is the best proof.

He doesn't need to rely on external forces like Kiyoshi, which require time to accumulate before they can be used briefly for a few minutes.

The deeper the fusion, the stronger Obito believed he would become.

In the entire ninja world, only Hashirama was able to receive the title of god, known as the "God of Shinobi".

Hashirama's chakra reserves were enormous, beyond human imagination.

Once he masters this power, he will combine it with the Uchiha's Sharingan.

Uchiha Kiyoshi?
Hmph, a worthless piece of trash.

Obito was really looking forward to this day.

The reason he hasn't made a move yet is that he's not entirely confident.

He needs more time to grow.

"Shimura Danzo and Sansho Hanzo have already reached a deal, haven't they?"

Obito suddenly asked.

"It's done."

Ah Fei spoke.

"it is good."

With this additional layer of protection, Obito's figure slowly disappeared.

Since Uchiha Kiyoshi is causing trouble this time, let's just let him be.

The fact that Nagato became his pawn cannot be changed.

Could it be that Uchiha Kiyoshi can stay in the Land of Rain forever?

No one can outlast Obito.

Now, perhaps we can take a look at what the fake Lin is doing.

The thought popped into Obito's mind and suddenly burst forth uncontrollably.

Kiyoshi is not in Konoha now.

Kakashi seems to have gone out to carry out the Anbu's plan as well, which is said to be related to the Hannya sect.

So, Lin, what are you doing now?

hiss……

Obito's figure slowly disappeared, like a ghost, unnoticed by anyone.

Only Qing Si, who was fighting Shennong below, seemed to understand something and looked up.

Naruto was able to sense Nagato's location from several kilometers away using a black chakra rod, completely ignoring Konan's concealment using the "God's Paper Technique".

He can do the same even in "Sage Mode".

"Obito's corruption is even more thorough than in the original story."

Kiyoshi secretly said.

This is also normal.

If Rin were to die, Obito would still have something to look forward to; Rin's purity would remain.

The last incident completely overturned Obito's worldview, leaving a significant psychological scar.

"You dare to be distracted during a battle?"

Shennong threw a punch at him.

Qing Si Tou subtly shifted his head to the left, effortlessly dodging the attack.

With the Sharingan's dynamic power and the perception of "Sage Mode," unless it's a sneak attack, it would be difficult for Shennong, who has only opened the "Six Gates," to hit Kiyoshi head-on.

Shennong also sensed this. Under the combined attack of Shennong and Zero, Kiyoshi was like an elusive loach.

How can this guy dodge so well?

Suddenly, Shennong's eyes narrowed.

Kiyoshi threw a straight punch at him.

"You think you can hit me with a punch like that?"

Shennong's mouth split open, he was just short of bursting into laughter.

He confidently turned away, intending to use "Hidden Lotus" to attack Kiyoshi after he had dodged the attack, when Kiyoshi's old power had been exhausted and his new power had not yet been generated.

boom!
However, Shennong was once again sent flying, half of his face was horribly deformed, and his stark white bones were exposed.

"impossible!"

Shennong exclaimed in disbelief, "Absolutely impossible! I clearly dodged that attack, and it definitely wasn't an illusion!"

Shennong was shocked.

How did Kiyoshi manage to hit him?

Since the start of the battle, he had been extremely careful to prevent Kiyoshi from using illusions to hypnotize him.

Just now, Kiyoshi's fist clearly grazed past his head at least three centimeters away.

Why are they still getting hurt?
"For someone as mediocre as you, of course it's impossible."

Kiyoshi chuckled softly.

He shook his blood-stained hands.

The technique he just used was very simple; he named it "Snake Kumite," a taijutsu technique he imitated Naruto's "Frog Kumite."

The principle behind this move is that even a ninja who has just entered "Sage Mode" can use it. All you need to do is wrap your hands in the surrounding natural energy and then throw a punch.

Ninjas who cannot use "Sage Mode" have difficulty sensing the presence of natural energy. Even if they seem to have dodged the user's punch, the layer of natural energy covering them will teach the victim a lesson.

"Insanity."

The steam emanating from Shennong's body changed once again.

It went from green to blue, and then gradually turned red.

"The Eighth Gate of Death... Open!"

Shennong roared.

Blood-red steam rose from his body.

The immense chakra that erupted swept through the surrounding mountains and forests, causing leaves to flutter and creating an astonishing spectacle.

Whoosh!
Shennong rushed out.

Kiyoshi's Sharingan eyes darted rapidly up, down, left, and right, trying to track him.

Finally, Shennong appeared in the lower right corner of the view and jumped up from the ground.

Shennong's punch sent shockwaves that flattened the muddy ground, carving out a deep furrow.

Moreover, the air blast seemed to linger in the air, constantly hovering, and you could see the high-speed airflow moving inside.

Evening elephant!

Only when the "Eight Gates Formation" is fully open can one strike the air at supersonic speed to create a continuous air cannon shaped like an elephant's foot.

"Compared to Might Guy's 'Death Gate,' it's still a bit lacking."

Kiyoshi was suspended in mid-air.

It's worth noting that Might Guy's speed was so great that even Six Paths Madara couldn't react to it.

Finally, it even distorted space, reaching an astonishing level.

The moves Shennong used...

If I had to describe it, it would be a budget version.

This is normal, since Shennong wasn't from Konoha after all, and the "Eight Gates Formation" he learned might not be authentic.

In the original story, he was an elite boss that Naruto and Sasuke defeated together in the middle of the story.

Of course, a large part of this was due to Sasuke's sneak attack, which sealed Shennong's chakra points, preventing Shennong from using his full strength.

Kiyoshi didn't want it to be like that; such a method was sufficient for insurance purposes.

"My entry is counting on you."

There was a smile on Qingsi's lips.

boom!
Green steam rose from his body, blending with the pale green "magic robe".

With the combination of various surgical procedures, Qing Si's blood vessels became prominent, his muscles became stiff, and dense blood vessels appeared in the whites of his eyes.

Given his physique, it's a bit of a stretch.

It almost lost its "sage mode" and became the norm.

The Qing Si office is currently only open at one gate.

But it was enough to deal with Shennong.

"Wow, you also know the Eight Gates Formation, but... you only open one gate?"

Shennong couldn't help but shake his head.

　Thank you to 艹, 青帝, and 书友20230621816_ed for the donations.

　　P.S.: I think I should just combine them into one image. Sigh.
