I, Uchiha: Split Konoha

Chapter 294 Totsuka Sword VS. Corpse Demon Sealing [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

Rumble!

A massive black Susanoo appeared, not in its complete form, but only half of its body, yet the immense power it exuded was already terrifying.

Uchiha Yoru, however, calmly gazed at the Grim Reaper behind the Third Hokage, a mocking smile on his face.

"Third Hokage, since you call yourself the Professor of Ninjutsu, you should know that every ninjutsu has a way to be countered."

A gourd slowly appeared at the waist of the black Susanoo, and when the giant Susanoo hand pulled it out, it turned out to be a sword.

Upon witnessing this scene, the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, exclaimed in shock, "The Totsuka Blade!"

"As expected of the ninjutsu expert, he actually recognizes this sword."

At this moment, Uchiha Yoru looked at the Third Hokage with a mocking smile and even taunted, "Do you think this legendary sealing sword can seal away the Grim Reaper?"

A seemingly casual remark revealed Uchiha Yoru's arrogance; he actually wanted to seal away the Shinigami.

Upon witnessing this scene, Madara Uchiha, who was bound by the Cursed Seal Sealing Technique, couldn't help but exclaim, "As expected of a junior member of the Uchiha clan, he even managed to think of a way to break the seal."

Hashirama Senju, standing to the side, nodded in sudden realization, "So they wanted to use this Kusanagi sword to seal the Shinigami."

"Legend has it that the Totsuka Sword is a spiritual weapon with the ability to seal both the body and the soul, and the theory that it can seal the Grim Reaper alone is feasible."

Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju chatted casually, as if they weren't even on a battlefield.

Meanwhile, Tobirama Senju, lying on the ground in frustration, had his head pinned down by the Kusanagi sword, and he was filled with resentment.

"How did this Kusanagi sword end up in the hands of your Uchiha clan?"

At this moment, the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, had an extremely ugly expression, with blood continuously flowing from the corner of his mouth. He seemed to have thought of something.

"It's from World War II, isn't it? The legendary Kusanagi Sword and Yata Mirror were stolen and lost, and I never thought they would fall into the hands of your Uchiha clan."

Seeing the Third Hokage hoarsely express his guess, Uchiha Yoru couldn't help but smile.

"Indeed! The Totsuka Blade, which possesses sealing power, and the Yata Mirror, which is a legacy of the Uchiha clan leader, are both spiritual artifacts that no one would have imagined."

It was the divine weapon that Fugaku Uchiha gave him.

The Totsuka Blade and the Yata Mirror are officially classified as spiritual weapons, formed from chakra, and have no physical form.

The Sharingan of the Uchiha clan can serve as a vessel for spiritual energy.

puff!

The Totsuka Blade pierced directly into the Grim Reaper's chest, and the Grim Reaper, seemingly devoid of any intelligence, continued to pull at his soul with all his might. The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, coughed up blood violently but still roared madly.

"How could I possibly fall here! For the sake of Konoha, I will take you, you evil Uchiha, with me no matter what."

The Grim Reaper's hand still held tightly to Uchiha Yoru's soul, and it seemed that the two were watching to see who would seal the other first.

However, Uchiha Yoru smiled after experiencing it, "So this is the principle behind this sealing technique."

"The Grim Reaper wants to pull out the soul, and the stronger the chakra of a ninja, the stronger the resistance, especially when conscious. In other words, as long as my chakra is strong enough, or even surpasses a certain level, the Grim Reaper cannot pull out my soul."

"You! You're testing this forbidden technique!" Seeing Uchiha Yoru's enlightened smile, Hiruzen Sarutobi revealed an angry and shocked look.

He couldn't believe that his desperate ninjutsu was like that of a clown in the eyes of his opponent.

"Boring."

After Uchiha Yoru figured out the principle behind this ninjutsu, he immediately showed impatience. The next moment, his chakra exploded, and the soul that had been being pulled apart within him instantly began to stabilize.

At the same time, Susanoo slowly drew the Totsuka Blade, and the Shinigami was sealed inside the gourd under Hiruzen Sarutobi's incredulous gaze.

puff~

With the Shinigami sealed away, Uchiha Yoru regained his physical abilities, while Sarutobi Hiruzen knelt weakly and disheveled on the ground, coughing up blood continuously, his abdominal wound already life-threatening.

"You brat, are you trying to kill the Third Hokage?!"

At this moment, Tobirama Senju, who was lying on the ground, roared angrily, but the next moment an unprecedented sense of shame and anger surged into his heart.

When Hashirama Senju on both sides saw this scene, his expression stiffened and turned somewhat ugly, while Madara Uchiha revealed a mocking smile.

"Young man, I, Uchiha Madara, acknowledge you. You are worthy of bearing the title of God of the Shinobi World."

Uchiha Yoru stood with one foot on the Second Hokage's head, looking down at Senju Tobirama with disdain. The Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, roared furiously at the sight.

"Evil Uchiha, how could you treat our ancestors like this?"

However, at this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi was only in his final moments. The severe injury to his abdomen, coupled with the enormous consumption of chakra, left him so weak that he could no longer stand up.

"How should I treat them? Why don't you let the Third Hokage talk about how he treated the Senju and Uchiha clans who founded Konoha? Oh, and the Uzumaki clan too."

Looking at the disheveled Hiruzen Sarutobi lying on the ground with a mocking expression, Yoru Uchiha instead looked at the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, with a teasing look.

"It seems that even though you summoned the previous Hokage, Third Hokage, you haven't told the two Hokage about the Senju clan's impending extinction, have you?"

Madara Uchiha, standing to the side, had a cold face, but his expression was full of mockery as he looked at Hashirama. He was well aware of the Senju clan's fate, but he couldn't reveal it.

Hashirama Senju was visibly stunned upon hearing this. "The Senju clan is dwindling and on the verge of extinction?"

These words left Hashirama Senju somewhat bewildered. Back then, either the Senju or the Uchiha clan could have easily suppressed Konoha, right? How could they have perished?

"Oh right, I also remember the First Hokage's alliance with the Land of Whirlpools, known as the Eternal Alliance. Tsk tsk, how come I remember watching the Land of Whirlpools be destroyed during the Third Hokage's reign?"

"By the way, at least the village managed to rescue a princess from the exiled Uzumaki kingdom, and all the legendary sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan have come to Konoha. Tsk tsk, truly worthy of being called the strongest Hokage."

Under Uchiha Yoru's constant sarcastic remarks, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who had already lost too much blood, became flustered upon hearing these words, his face turning red, and he dared not look at the two Hokage.

Meanwhile, Tobirama Senju, whose head was being stepped on, showed a look of shock. Looking at his disciple who was avoiding his gaze, he was not stupid and had already understood what was going on.

Uchiha Yoru then burst into laughter, "Since our so-called Third Hokage keeps talking about the evil Uchiha, and he thinks he represents justice, then let me tell you about what happened to our predecessors all these years."

"The Second Hokage died in the Land of Lightning, and all of his guards survived and fled back to the village. They shamelessly claimed that the Second Hokage's last words were to entrust Hiruzen Sarutobi with power, and that they would assist him in doing so."

"And so, Hiruzen Sarutobi became the Third Hokage, and Danzo Shimura, Homura Mitokado, and others became powerful figures. But at this time, the Senju clan was too strong, not to mention that they had produced two more Hokage. Our Third Hokage seemed to feel that his Hokage orders were not working..."

"After that, they continued to weaken the Senju clan's power. Later, they even researched the Wood Release plan. Tsk tsk, knowing the experiment was unstable, our Third Hokage, who was bathed in the light, used the same old trick of not seeing or knowing, while Root, hiding in the darkness, secretly spread rumors, making the members of the Senju clan believe that the experiment was already safe..."

"Finally, as you have seen, perhaps with the sensory abilities of the two Hokage, they should personally sense how many Senju clan members still exist in Konoha. After all, I am the evil Uchiha."

Slowly moving his foot away, Uchiha Yoru looked at Senju Tobirama lying on the ground with a mocking gaze, "Isn't that right, Second Hokage?"

"You probably didn't expect that your disciples would perfectly inherit the evil Uchiha ideology, but the methods you admire were first used on the Senju clan. Among these people should be all your relatives, including your children, grandchildren, nephews, and nieces."

"Hiruzen, you!" At this moment, Tobirama Senju stopped even calling out like a monkey, his eyes filled with cold light as he stared intently at Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Tobirama Senju was not his elder brother; he was willing to sacrifice his family for peace.

After the initial shock of the Senju clan's demise, he remained silent for a moment, lost in thought.

Meanwhile, the surrounding barriers had been removed, and Tsunade herself had come to the front lines.

"Grandpa, Second Grandpa."

The mature Tsunade looked at her two grandfathers, her eyes filled with tears and excitement.

"Xiaogang, you're already so grown up."

The usually carefree and hot-blooded Hashirama Senju instantly broke into a silly grin as he looked at his granddaughter.

"Tobirama, don't be sad. We still have Tsuna. With Tsuna's ability to awaken Wood Release, he can give birth to one child a year without any problem. Even after a hundred years, the Senju clan will still be around."

Tsunade, who was initially on the verge of tears, was instantly filled with shame and anger upon hearing these words. She glared and roared, "Grandpa! What do you take me for?!"

At this moment, Tsunade couldn't help but glare at Uchiha Yoru beside her, "Where did you put your foot just now?!"

Facing Tsunade's gaze, Uchiha Yoru gave an awkward smile, "I couldn't control myself at the time."

"In fact, our Third Hokage is said to have inherited the ideas of the Second Hokage. He believes that the Uchiha clan is evil, that the Uchiha clan, who were once the founders of Konoha, were forced to the edge of the village, and that he even planned a meticulous extermination operation."

At this point, Uchiha Yoru couldn't help but look at Sarutobi Hiruzen and said sarcastically, "I forgot to tell you, Third Hokage, this time the Sarutobi clan colluded with the Sand Village to attack the Land of Fire, and you yourself provided the bait."

"The Sarutobi clan is probably extinct now, but I still have to thank the Third Hokage and you all. It's just the right time to use the plan from the Uchiha clan's extermination operation. It's almost as if nothing has changed."

"You!" Hiruzen Sarutobi stared at Yoru Uchiha with resentment. Although he had already made preparations to sacrifice the Sarutobi clan, being mentioned like this by the other party made him spit out a mouthful of blood.

Madara Uchiha, who never misses a good show, gave a mocking smile and said, "Hashirama, it seems you made the wrong choice."

The two initially got into a fight because of their differing ideologies.

Seeing this situation, Madara Uchiha showed a rare expression of appreciation.

"It seems that I, the Uchiha, have won in the end. You're quite good, junior."

Madara Uchiha rarely praised anyone, but Yoru Uchiha's actions were so comforting to him, like drinking an ice-cold cola on a hot summer day.

Konoha has now changed its surname to Uchiha, while your Senju clan is almost extinct, ruined by your own disciples.

Hashirama Senju was also unusually embarrassed and didn't know what to say. He hadn't expected that the peace he thought he had achieved would lead to chaos in the ninja world right after his death.

The Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, coldly stared at the Third Hokage, saying, "Hiruzen! You are truly my good disciple."

Facing the gazes of his teacher and the First Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi still stubbornly raised his head and said firmly, "Teacher, I did this all for Konoha, for the Will of Fire."

"Back then, the Senju clan's power had already affected the stability of the village, and it was during World War II. If we were not careful, Konoha would have been destroyed. For the sake of the village, I have no regrets! But please believe me, teacher."

"Danzo really didn't expect it to be this serious. The Senju clan, having lost their Hokage position, are frantically pursuing the power of Wood Release. We really didn't anticipate this!"

Although Hiruzen Sarutobi regretted it, he would never believe that he was wrong back then.

He has etched the Will of Fire into his very bones throughout his life; how could he possibly admit to a mistake?

He is right! Only his ideals can bring peace and stability to Konoha.

Looking at the paranoid and insane Third Hokage, Uchiha Yoru smiled mockingly.

"Third Hokage, I think you are more suited to the Uchiha clan. You are so obsessive even without the Sharingan. If you had the Sharingan, you would probably have evolved into the Mangekyou Sharingan long ago."

"Night!" Faced with Uchiha Night's mockery, Tsunade snorted coldly to stop him, after all, the other party was also the Third Hokage.

Uchiha Yoru, however, was not resting; he knew this was a golden opportunity.

"Evil Sarutobi, your mind is too extreme and has gone astray. You keep talking about the Will of Fire, but during the Third Shinobi World War, children under ten years old from the Ninja Academy were sent to the battlefield, while you corrupt old folks hid in the rear."

"Konoha's hero, Sakumo Hatake, abandoned his mission for his comrades, only to be driven to his death by public opinion! He is now considered a disgrace to Konoha. How ironic."

At this moment, Uchiha Yoru looked at the disheveled Third Hokage and sneered, "So what about you, the Hokage's guards, who abandoned the Hokage in the Land of Lightning, causing unprecedented losses to Konoha? What does that even mean?"

"Your so-called Will of Fire is too empty. What have you brought to Konoha all these years? Look up and take a good look at the ninjas in the village, at the way they look at you."

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi raised his head with trembling eyes. With the eyesight of a Kage-level ninja, he could clearly see one familiar Konoha ninja after another.

Kakashi and Might Guy both lowered their heads and remained silent. Even the countless Jonin he regarded as the future of Konoha avoided his gaze, showing no intention of speaking up for him whatsoever.

"And what has the so-called evil Uchiha's Will of Fire brought to the village? Have you seen it?"

At this moment, Uchiha Yoru stood on the moral high ground, surveyed everyone, and roared: "I, Uchiha Yoru, led Konoha to the peak once again! Under the Will of Fire of the Uchiha, children study in schools, and in the event of war, we are the first experienced ninja legions to rush to the battlefield..."

"If the time comes, I, Uchiha Yoru, will lead two Kage to the battlefield until the very end! Only when all the adult ninjas in the village have died will it be the children's turn."

"Under my rule, Uchiha Yoru, the Land of Water and the Land of Fire have merged and become one family! All ninjas no longer need to worry about post-war compensation, nor about housing, medical care, or other issues! And what about you, the Third Hokage?"

Under the relentless barrage of Uchiha Yoru's words, the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, turned pale and broke out in a cold sweat, but he still stared defiantly at Uchiha Yoru.

Their eyes said it all! Uchiha Yoru couldn't help but sigh, in this distorted ninja world, once someone has decided on their ninja way, even a god cannot change it.

Similarly, the strength of a ninja lies in the combination of mental power and chakra, and it is precisely these distorted and obsessive mentalities that have created countless powerful ninjas.
