The Uchiha clan, which was wiped out entirely, lacked vision.

Chapter 285 Darkening Makes You Three Times Stronger

However, Neji didn't care at all.

His gaze swept over the ruins of Konoha Village destroyed by the Wood Release: Forest, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.

The efforts of Konoha Village over the past few months were completely wiped out in that wave of Wood Release.

This is the disadvantage of fighting in your own village.

The enemy can act recklessly, but we must be cautious and avoid causing harm. Otherwise, any misstep will only result in the loss of our own property.

Neji's gaze quickly met Mizuki's below, and he knew it was time to bring this farce to a close.

He raised his gaze to the moon above, which activated the enormous Tenseigan hidden within it.

With this support, he becomes a numerical monster with cheat codes.

Amidst the silent tremors, a surge of immense energy emerged from the giant Tenseigan and entered Neji's eyes through some invisible channel.

"Hahahaha—" Neji burst into loud laughter, "Itachi, is this your limit?"

"If your skills stop here, then this day next year will be your death anniversary!"

Neji raised his hand again, but this time the golden light in his hand was many times thicker than before, shining brightly and soaring into the sky.

Even without experiencing it firsthand, just by looking at it with the naked eye, one can feel the sharpness and terror of that golden light.

Seemingly realizing that success or failure hinged on this moment, Itachi roared loudly and unleashed his Wood Release to its fullest extent, striking Neji hard.

Neji revealed a sinister smile. Without dodging or avoiding, he simply swung his arm, and the radiant golden sword descended like a heavenly blade, easily slicing through the thick bark of the super giant tree without the slightest resistance.

A flash of golden light appeared, then flashed twice, then three times, weaving together into a dense golden net that enveloped the Weasel's giant tree.

A few breaths later, the light disappeared.

Before everyone's eyes, the towering tree collapsed with a crash, like overturned building blocks, cut into square pieces.

The giant tree, like an overturned shipping container, poured its branches down onto Susanoo at its feet.

Itachi couldn't care less about any of that now, because the golden light reappeared and slashed down at Susanoo.

Itachi instinctively raised his shield and held it above his head.

Susanoo's defense is indeed the best in the world. Even the golden sword that could easily shred a giant tree could not break through Susanoo's defense in the first place.

But this situation is actually worse.

The golden sword and the energy shield collided, unleashing a blinding white light that could almost pierce a person's eyes.

A massive explosion occurred at the point of impact, sending a mushroom cloud soaring into the sky and sweeping everything on the ground into the air.

Even the massive body of Susanoo was somewhat unsteady due to the impact of this updraft.

The massive amount of tree debris that had been cascading down burst into flames upon impact with the mushroom cloud, igniting a raging inferno that burned across half the sky.

The violent shockwave, centered on Susanoo, surged outwards in all directions from the village. It ripped through the ground, even tearing up and shredding underground pipes – more efficient than a demolition crew could do.

Konoha Village, which had been ravaged by the Wood Release forest before, suffered a second blow.

The village, which had taken months and countless sums of money to rebuild, was reduced to its pre-reconstruction state and was no different from ruins in this battle.

"Break it for me!!!"

Neji shouted loudly, unleashing the full power of the Tenseigan.

With a crisp "crack", Susanoo's shield finally shattered.

Without the shield's protection, the golden sword descended, striking Susanoo's forehead with a single blow. After a brief pause, it sliced ​​through the Susanoo like a chainsaw cutting through wood.

Amidst the scattering of energy fragments, the golden sword pierced Susanoo's head, crushing Itachi inside into dust as well, unable to escape.

Without its energy provider, Susanoo disintegrated on the spot, turning into light and disappearing, leaving only Neji in the world.

He hung in mid-air with his back to the bright moon, looking up at the sky and laughing heartily.

"Ha ha ha ha----"

"This feeling of freedom is absolutely captivating!"

"My fellow clansmen who have branched out, I'm giving you one last chance to choose. Will you soar freely like me, or will you sink into hell with these corrupt main families?"

After saying that, Neji stopped wasting words and shot out like lightning, ruthlessly killing the main family members present.

This time, even more families scattered and went into hiding.

After all, the outcome of the battle was already decided, and Neji had won a great victory. At this moment, there was no one in Konoha Village who could rival Neji.

Neji didn't tolerate those branch family members who remained stubborn and were willing to die for the main family; he simply killed them all.

In just a moment, the scene was filled with blood and corpses.

"Stop!"

Itachi, resurrected using "Izanagi," charged forward frantically, trying to stop Neji from harming his comrades in the village.

But at this moment, Neji no longer wanted to fight Itachi. He let Itachi activate Susanoo and Wood Release again, and just moved around quickly, with killing the main family as his primary goal.

The matter of establishing authority has been accomplished, and the task assigned by Lord An has been completed. The remaining time is Neji's moment for revenge.

Fighting Itachi? That's too much of a waste of time!

"Aaaaaahh ...

Itachi shouted frantically, using all sorts of tactics to try and stop Neji.

But for a peerless expert who is solely focused on guerrilla warfare and killing, none of this matters.

Itachi could only watch helplessly as Neji slaughtered all the main clan members present, then laughed heartily and walked away, unable to save anyone.

Neji flew away, his figure disappearing into the bright moonlight.

The village of Konoha was deathly silent; no one spoke except for the crackling sounds of flames burning throughout the village and the faint, intermittent sounds of weeping.

Finally, it was Shuimu who broke the silence first.

"Gentlemen, don't just stand there, let's get to the rescue!"

"We can discuss the rest tomorrow after dawn."

Reminded by Shui Muyi, the others finally came to their senses and began the rescue operation.

Although they were engaged in rescue operations, everyone looked blank, as if they had just woken up from a nightmare, and they were all listless.

The previous battle had destroyed everyone's will to fight.

Itachi's performance was already outstanding, but he was still no match for Neji.

Previously, there was only one such enemy, Uchiha An, but now another one has emerged.

What's wrong?

Does turning evil make you three times stronger?

Or is it that the feng shui of Konoha Village is bad, and that the ninjas in the village can immediately level up once they leave Konoha Village?
