Naruto: I became a super shadow in the Anbu.

Chapter 380 The Death of Koharu in the Utatane Room
The complete Susanoo, clad in chakra armor, crushed the Senju clan's council hall with one foot and two small courtyards with the other.

The two families of the Thousand Hands tribe in the small courtyard were trampled into the ground along with the ruins of the building, turning into a bloody pulp.

The fully-formed Susanoo swung its sword down, aiming at Kushina Uzumaki, who had fallen to the ground.

Just then, a soft shout rang out.

Tsunade leaped from mid-air and slammed her fist into the side blade of the Susanoo sword.

The Susanoo sword was sent flying by a single punch, leveling many of the surrounding houses.

Tsunade's expression was solemn.

Fortunately, the fox warned her in advance, otherwise Kushina would have been killed by Madara Uchiha in one move.

Minato Namikaze instantly appeared beside Kushina.

Tsunade said, "Minato! Take Kushina and leave! Head to the refuge cave! This battle is not something you can participate in!"

Minato quickly helped Kushina up and jumped backward.

Just as the two jumped, Susanoo's giant sword slashed down again, its target clear: Kushina Uzumaki.

Just then, the Vajra Staff was swung, missing the greatsword for the second time.

Bang!
The giant sword swept away more than a dozen houses, carving a deep trench in the Thousand Hands territory.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, Sakumo Hatake, and Koharu Utatane arrived at the Senju clan's territory.

Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at the trench left by the giant sword, which was more than ten meters wide, several meters deep, and tens of meters long, and shouted:

"We can't fight inside the village. You cover me, I'll push Susanoo out of the village!"

The thick Vajra Ruyi Jingu Bang extended and slammed into Susanoo's abdomen with a thud, pushing Susanoo backward.

Sensing the shaking, Madara Uchiha's expression changed slightly, as if he had become somewhat interested.

"Hiruzen Sarutobi, hehe, you don't think that just because you've got the Vajra Staff, you're Sarutobi Sasuke, do you?"

Quickly put the Vajra Staff back into Sarutobi Sasuke's grave.

Don't show it; it'll embarrass Sarutobi Sasuke.

Look at you waving that huge stick, like a child trying to stir up the ocean.

Susanoo simply took a step back and stood firmly on the ground.

A moment of panic crossed Hiruzen Sarutobi's mind. His father, Sarutobi Sasuke, had told him that he was no match for Madara Uchiha.

In an instant, Hiruzen Sarutobi's gaze hardened, and he exerted force in his hands, drawing out chakra and pushing Susanoo with even greater power.

My father said that Madara Uchiha was good at psychological warfare. In the battle with Madara Uchiha, you can neither look into his eyes nor listen to him speak, otherwise you won't be able to use even 80% of your strength.

However, even with the Vajra staff bent into an arc, it could not move Susanoo even slightly.

Hiruzen Sarutobi felt powerless; he had already exerted all his strength, but Susanoo was suppressing him in terms of power.

When Tsunade saw Susanoo retreat, her heels flattened many houses. She couldn't imagine how many Senju clansmen had died in those houses.

She suddenly jumped up and punched Susanoo in the knee.

Tsunade was shocked to discover that her full-force punch had failed to shatter Susanoo's kneecap.

Why do they possess such powerful ninjutsu?
Tsunade lowered her right hand and quickly used medical chakra to heal the pain in her arm.

How exactly did Grandpa defeat such an enemy?
Tsunade raised a hand and pressed it to her brow. It seemed it was time to activate the Yin Seal...

Susanoo raised its hand, and three chakra tomoe spun rapidly in its palm.

Magatama of Yasaka!
Hiruzen Sarutobi was terrified. He had seen this technique before. Its destructive power was comparable to that of the Tailed Beast Ball, and it was Susanoo's strongest long-range attack.

Susanoo slowly moved its palm, aiming the Yasaka Magatama at Hiruzen Sarutobi.

A massive amount of chakra, visible to the naked eye, gathered in the palm of Susanoo.

Sakumo Hatake drew his White Fang short sword, thinking to himself that he could cut through a Tailed Beast Ball the size of a human head, but he wondered if the White Fang's blade could handle the Yasaka Magatama.

Just then, two dragon roars resounded through the night sky above Konoha.

Two wooden dragons rushed out from behind, wrapping around Susanoo's shoulders, one on the left and one on the right.

Susanoo flickered, and the Yasaka Magatama flew high, grazing the Hokage Building, and heading towards the right side of the Hokage Rock.

The night light captured Susanoo's final gesture of waving its hand to the right.

Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju have such a deep bond; even at this moment, his first reaction is still to try to avoid Hashirama Senju's portrait with his attacks.

Hiding Qiaoyi in the No. 1 refuge cave under the portrait of Senju Hashirama was definitely the right choice.

The Yasaka Magatama exploded in the forest above the Hokage Rock.

About one-fifth of the long stone cliff has been destroyed.

Half of Hiruzen Sarutobi's portrait was blown off.

Hiruzen Sarutobi shouted, "Well done! Fox!"

With the fox around, Hiruzen Sarutobi had it much easier.

Across from the Senju clan's territory lies the Uchiha clan's territory.

Uchiha Zhong stood atop the archway, using his three-tomoe Sharingan to watch the battle between Uchiha Madara and the Konoha leadership more than two hundred meters away.

"Clan leader..."

Upon hearing Uchiha Touka's shout, Uchiha Zhong turned around and said, "Touka, carry out the Hokage Building's orders. The Security Department is not allowed to enter the battlefield. Evacuate civilians with all your might!"

Upon hearing the clan leader's order, Uchiha Touka sighed resentfully and turned to arrange the evacuation of the security department.

Madara Uchiha invaded Konoha, but the village refused to allow the Uchiha clan to participate in the battle.

It's obvious they're wary of the Uchiha clan and don't trust them.

However, they cannot rush into the battlefield, as that would be blatant disobedience and would cause tension and misunderstandings among the Konoha ninjas participating in the battle.

Uchiha Zhong stood on the archway, his three-tomoe jade pendants spinning rapidly.

It is foreseeable that the Uchiha clan's situation will be even worse after the battle.

With such a major event as the village being breached, the Uchiha clan's near-inaction only fueled the villagers' resentment towards them.

He had never used Susanoo before, so this was a learning opportunity.

Perhaps he will never use Susanoo in his entire life, just like the water in the copper vat in the courtyard, which will never be used to put out a fire when it dries up.

But he was determined to master Susanoo. Seeing the two wooden dragons, Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly shouted, "Attack together! Push Madara Uchiha out of Konoha!"

Pulled by a wooden dragon from behind and supported by a Vajra staff from the front, Susanoo moved eastward.

Its massive, majestic body, hundreds of meters tall, caused the earth to shake with every step it took back.

Madara Uchiha saw the two wooden dragons flanking him: "Hashirama, the only thing that can cause me trouble is your jutsu..."

The Susanoo's chakra was rapidly depleting and being absorbed by the wood dragon.

On the surface, the Vajra Staff was thick and powerful, and Tsunade's fists made a deafening roar that shook the night sky with each punch. The White Fang Blade was dazzling and fierce, but it was the Wood Dragon Technique that caused the Susanoo to suffer a great loss.

Madara Uchiha wasn't in a hurry; his eyes, hidden beneath his white hair, were fixed on the ground.

The next moment!
Afei appeared silently from a large tree in the Senju clan's territory.

Inside Tobi's swirling mask, White Zetsu's Mangekyou Sharingan spun!

Kaleidoscope: Island of Energy!
A black dot suddenly appeared beneath Hiruzen Sarutobi's feet!

The black dots expanded rapidly, forming a black island of stagnant energy, which was about to touch Hiruzen Sarutobi's feet.

"careful!"

Among the Second Hokage's six bodyguards, Koharu Utatane was always the medical ninja of the guard squad. She was used to observing the battlefield, gathering intelligence, and providing timely assistance to Hiruzen and the others.

Koharu, who was turning the bed, observed every detail of the battlefield from the side and rear.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, unable to move while holding the Vajra Staff, was immediately spotted by Koharu Utatane, who recognized the black dot as the one mentioned in the intelligence report.

Without any hesitation, Koharu Utatane lunged at Hiruzen Sarutobi, trying to push him out of the range of Onoku Black Island.

Her combat strength is not strong. She is a medical ninja in the traditional sense, specializing in offensive medical ninjutsu, and only knows how to use a scalpel.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was bumped on the side, and upon realizing it was Koharu Utatane, he staggered half a step to the side and then jumped to the side.

With the release of the Vajra Staff, Susanoo stopped retreating.

In that instant, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't have time to think about anything else. When he turned his head, he saw Koharu Utatane accidentally step on the Kuroshima of Ooku while trying to save him!

The next instant, Hiruzen Sarutobi's vision vanished.

There had just been another person in front of him, a living person...
Xiaochun collapsed, shrinking into a thin mass of flesh.

The outline of the meatball on the minced meat still reveals where Koharu Utatane once appeared.

Blood rushed to his brain, and all sounds disappeared from Hiruzen Sarutobi's mind; he could only hear static that sounded like electronic music.

She died. Xiaochun died saving him...

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked across and saw that inside Tobi's eye sockets were two Mangekyou Sharingan.

The fox said that the Mangekyou Sharingan, which originally belonged to Uchiha Nobi, was eventually taken by Uchiha Madara.

why?
Why is this happening?

Why did Mitokado Enoki and Utatane Koharu die one after the other?
Ah Fei said with a tone full of regret:

"Hiruzen Sarutobi is really lucky; someone actually went to great lengths to save him."

If we can ambush and kill Hiruzen Sarutobi, Konoha will be severely weakened, and our objective will be achieved.

"What a pity, that old woman had good observation skills; she actually died for Sarutobi Hiruzen."

Hiruzen Sarutobi muttered, "Old woman..."

For the sake of Konoha Village, Koharu Utatane shoulders the most complicated internal affairs work. During this time, she has aged considerably due to the deaths of her daughter and son-in-law.

But Xiaochun used to be so vain...
Koharu at the Ninja Academy was just like any other cute girl, and after graduation, she was just like any other beautiful young woman... Countless images flooded Hiruzen Sarutobi's mind.

she···

Hiruzen Sarutobi's vision blurred, and a tear welled up in his dry eyes.

I have witnessed too much death.

When Mitokado Homura died, he was in pain, but he knew that Mitokado Homura had sacrificed himself for the glory of Konoha, and that he himself would have such a day.

Did Koharu die in front of him, or did she die trying to save him?

They said when they graduated from the Ninja Academy that they would definitely protect Koharu Utatane.

Koharu is a medical ninja, and the others all boasted that they would definitely die in front of Koharu.

The Monkey King sensed Hiruzen's hand trembling and quickly shortened it, returning it to its original height of one person.

An ape's eye appeared on the Vajra Ruyi Staff, and the outline of the fleshy mess on the ground vaguely resembled Koharu Utatane. The Ape Demon King closed his eyes.

It's useless to say anything.

Give Hiruzen just a few seconds and he'll pull himself together.

Sure enough, the Vajra Ruyi Cudgel instantly lengthened and slammed towards A-Fei.

Ah Fei had already slipped into the big tree.

The big tree was smashed to pieces.

Hiruzen Sarutobi lowered his eyelids, then slowly raised his head.

"Black Ant, go and inform Fox that I will take care of Uchiha Madara here."

"Let him use Wood Release to scout and deal with Tobi, and prevent Tobi from ambushing the rest of the village!"

Ah Fei's sneak attack went unnoticed by anyone except Fox.

If Afei is allowed to kill indiscriminately, countless people in Konoha will die tonight.

Upon hearing this, Black Ant quickly bypassed Susanoo and went to find the fox-lord behind Susanoo.

Hatake Sakumo appeared instantly, wanting to know why the Hokage wasn't continuing to use the Vajra Staff, but instead saw the Third Hokage's eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Sakumo Hatake, at all costs, you must kill the rogue ninja Madara Uchiha here!"
At any cost!

Sakumo, our era has ended. After you kill Uchiha Madara, go and carry out your plans.

The future belongs to you...

Upon hearing this, Hatake Sakumo's eyes lit up.
