Konoha: The Innately Evil Uchiha

If it were the old Shikamaru, he would most likely have suggested retreating at this point.

Since we can't win.

And they have no chance of winning.

At present, the priority is to preserve military strength. As long as they can preserve some of their troops, it will be a gain for them.

Shikamaru's expression hardened, his rapidly working brain quickly arriving at an answer. He immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted, "Support Commander-in-Chief!!"

Upon hearing this, Darui's expression gradually turned serious, and he said in a deep voice, "We will assist you!"

This is enough to show the extent of his trust in Shikamaru. Darui knew that in Konoha, the Nara family had always been known for their high intelligence.

The Nara clan heads throughout history have all been excellent strategists working alongside the Hokage.

This guy is comparable to the Raikage's secretary, Mabui, from their Hidden Cloud Village.

Darui naturally chose to trust the other party unconditionally. After all, if it weren't for Shikamaru, they would probably have become the other party's puppets by now.

...

...

"The Ice Age!"

The Raikage stared in horror at the Otsutsuki who was walking slowly forward, leaving behind his back.

Although he had little formal education.

But from now on...

The Raikage was aware of the climate changes in the ninja world. He immediately guessed a possibility: since the other party had controlled the climate of the ninja world in ancient times, did this mean that she had always been in the ninja world and had never left this planet?

Otsutsuki no longer paid any attention to the Raikage.

click-

She walked barefoot, and wherever she stepped, the ground froze into ice, as if heaven and earth had specially prepared an icy carpet for her.

Her white robes fluttered in the snow, her long hair swayed as if in water, and her face was cold and beautiful, like a celestial being descended to earth.

At this moment, her originally bright red Rinnegan with tomoe turned into a pale color symbolizing extreme cold, and the purple Rinnegan circle also faded a bit.

"You ants, witness the funeral of the Frozen Age—"

After a moment of contemplation, Ōtsutsuki...

Dark, heavy clouds began to fall, and snowflakes began to drift down, causing the temperature to plummet.

Fortunately, not many Konoha ninjas had entered the town; otherwise, they would probably have all been frozen into ice crystals by this woman.

This is what the Raikage is thinking at this moment.

He then realized that the thick ice crystals had already frozen his legs and were slowly condensing towards his upper body.

"..."

The Raikage stared at the chakra cannons that had all turned around, filled with deep regret.

Killer Bee clearly didn't escape being controlled either, and what awaits them is unknown even to the Raikage.

And just then...

hum-

Suddenly, countless tiny black dots appeared in the sky, like a flock of birds, flying rapidly toward the location of the Otsutsuki.

These are small flying puppets from the Sand Village. The Sand Ninja who control them are not here, but are mixed in with the Konoha Ninja formation.

This is also why the Raikage didn't send the entire army into the town.

Although he looked down on the Oborozuki Organization, he still didn't make the most fatal mistake.

Otherwise, they would all be wiped out by this woman right now, and Raikage had no doubt about that.

Staring at the flying puppet taking off.

The Raikage, who was about to be completely frozen, could only pray that they could buy him some time.

After the enormous flying puppet took off and its internal mechanisms were filled, it immediately launched a large number of kunai. This speed was obviously greater than that of ordinary ninja tools. In an instant, a large number of kunai turned into a dense rain of black ninja tools, completely covering the area where the Otsutsuki was located.

On the outskirts of the town, the Oborozuki ninjas who had been taken away watched this scene with wide eyes.

This was used to deal with them before.

Half of these people will probably die in this round of bitter rain.

In fact, even if that terrifying chakra cannon were to plow them once, they wouldn't be able to withstand it.

However, what puzzled them even more at this moment was that Konoha still held the advantage in terms of ninja tools and the number of ninjas.

Why do I always feel that Konoha is about to be defeated by their leader?

Suddenly, a cold wind swept across the land, and the torrential rain of kunai suddenly froze in the air, its speed decreasing sharply.

Then, thick layers of ice crystals condensed on their surfaces and fell heavily downwards.

"this……"

Outside the town, the Sand Village ninjas who had been lying in ambush were all at a loss.

Soon, they discovered that all the flying puppets on the control console screen had suddenly lost control, the images were blurry, and they had lost signal. Some of the images even showed flying puppets falling rapidly in front of them.

Then, they all took out their binoculars and were horrified to discover that the flying puppet formation, which had been neatly arranged high in the sky, was falling vertically like a kite with a broken string, even in the absence of wind.

"they……"

Hinata exclaimed in horror, "Their wings are all frozen solid!"

All the reconnaissance squads are currently outside the town after arriving, so they have not entered the town.

After all, their mission was accomplished.

But no one expected it.

This unexpected turn of events occurred during what should have been a decisive battle.

Hong's expression hardened, and he said in a deep voice, "The current situation is beyond our control, and even the command headquarters' control. Retreat!"

She was decisive.

They wouldn't dare gamble with their students' lives; after all, their mission was already accomplished.

They are currently on standby, and as long as they don't stray too far from the main force, no one really cares about them.

"yes--"

Hinata, Shino, Kiba, and the others immediately nodded.

Although they did not confront the enemy.

This disappointed Kiba, Shino, and the others, but the situation was beyond their control and they couldn't stop it just by taking action.

Just then.

The Konoha ninjas on the outskirts suddenly saw beams of chakra energy piercing the dark sky.

"This is... launched from outside the town!" The Konoha ninja, who had been bewildered, was now in turmoil and looked back sharply.

The group discovered that the chakra cannon squadron that had previously withdrawn was rushing back and was aiming ahead, rhythmically providing fire support!

"Everyone, retreat!"

Shikamaru stood atop the cannon platform, shouting loudly at the Konoha ninja formation waiting in formation.

Without hesitation, the group of ninjas quickly retreated. They knew little about the actual situation ahead, so blindly entering the town would only be a death sentence.

It's better to wait for orders from headquarters.

Fortunately, although they lost the Raikage as their commander-in-chief, Konoha still had its highest command headquarters.

"Oh……"

Ōtsutsuki looked up and stared at the energy beam that was falling toward him like a stream of light.

She remained completely calm.

From this, she could tell that the remaining chakra cannons were attacking with exceptional precision.

To avoid interrupting the attack, the opponent did not choose to charge up to the maximum power at once, but instead divided the energy into multiple parts to maintain the number of chakra cannons that could be fired.

The Otsutsuki clan has not yet made any move.

Before her, the chakra cannons she had taken control of were already rotating their turrets, aiming their barrels at the sky and shooting out terrifying beams of energy.

boom--

The beam of light collided with the beam of light emitted from outside the town high in the sky. In an instant, a terrifying shockwave distorted space and spread outward.

"Stay hidden!!"

Shikamaru plunged into the empty manhole cover above the chakra cannon and shouted loudly at the Konoha ninjas around him.

Suddenly, a terrifying shockwave swept in, and the Konoha ninjas around were thrown off balance by the shockwave. Some of them did not have time to use their chakra to absorb the earth and the surrounding rock pillars, and were directly blasted away, crashing into the rock pillars or nearby buildings, suffering severe injuries.

Shikamaru and Darui's chakra cannon formation was also knocked back several meters by this terrifying shockwave, only stopping as the aftershocks dissipated.

Everyone was completely bewildered.

My head just felt a buzzing pain.

"plum!!"

Neji forcibly dragged Lee out from the rubble nearby.

As for Tenten, Sakura, and the others, they all got up from the ground.

Naruto and Sasuke had previously dispersed the largest flying rock for everyone; otherwise, they would most likely have been killed by the flying rock while they were out of control of their bodies.

Kakashi struggled to his feet, gazed towards the town, and his expression hardened.

The outskirts of the town had been transformed into an iceberg, emanating a chilling aura.

"fine……"

Lee wiped the mud off his cheeks and reassured himself, "Teacher Guy is already on his way back to the Ninja Village."

He stood up shakily and looked at his companions who were lying around him, staggering about.

"Teacher, what should we do now?" Naruto asked Kakashi.

Even the usually stubborn Sasuke stared at Kakashi, waiting for his reply.

Kakashi's mind raced as he thought, "Let's retreat to a safe area and wait for orders from the ninja village."

Soon, the remaining Konoha army received a retreat order from the village's headquarters.

The army began to withdraw.

The high command of the ninja village was already very pleased that the army still had two chakra cannon squadrons left.

...

...

Leaf.

Hokage Building.

meeting room.

Tsunade's expression turned solemn as she said in a deep voice, "It is indeed the Otsutsuki."

After saying that, she fell silent. Then, she widened her eyes and looked at Shikaku beside her. "Shikamaru requested to use the remaining two chakra cannons to cover the rear."

Lu Jiu's expression hardened as he used the sand table placed in the middle of the conference room to simulate the battle situation.

Immediately, he leaned back in his chair and sighed:

"He's grown up."

Tsunade lowered her brows slightly, then issued an order through the mental communication channel.

...

...

The Land of Thunder.

Hidden Mist Village.

Harbor town.

"Are you going to run away like this?"

The Otsutsuki once again hovered high in the sky, overlooking the retreating Konoha army.

Her expression remained unchanged, as if what she was doing had nothing to do with her.

She could sense that there was an energy in this world that did not belong to the environment, which was merging into the environment, making it impossible for her to lock onto it.

The spiritual world of drinking the moon.

Prison space.

"..." Hashirama observed the Otsutsuki through his connection to the outside world, and said in a deep voice, "This guy seems stronger than any of the Otsutsuki we've encountered before!"

Tobirama said earnestly:

"This person has most likely always existed in the ninja world, which is why Kaguya and Nagato did not sense her arrival."

Drinking the moon still blends in with nature.

Quietly gathering the spiritual power he had left behind in the ninja world.

In fact, when she said those words to the Raikage, Yin Yue had already guessed the guy's origin. As Tobirama said, this Otsutsuki came from the polar region of the ninja world.

"..." The evil god said in surprise, "That shouldn't be the case. When I descended to the ninja world, I never sensed her presence. The natural climate of the ninja world is very normal. If there is such an Otsutsuki who controls ice, there is no way I wouldn't have sensed her."

Black Zetsu scoffed, "She must have a way of concealing her presence that even you can't detect. Is there any need to think about it?"

Everyone fell silent.

Waiting for Yinyue to speak.

"What do we do now?" Hashirama asked.

Tobirama said, "Since Toneri has been assigned to monitor the timeline, we can only wait for Kaguya and Nagato to make their move. There is no other way."

Tobirama's speculation was certainly correct.

Yin Yue's true form is not in the ninja world.

Right now, this Otsutsuki's strength completely overwhelms Momoshiki, Urashiki, and the others.

After experiencing the moon.

I think this woman's strength is probably even greater than Ichishiki's at his peak.

"Where do you think she ranks among the top Otsutsuki you've ever met in terms of strength?"

Drinking the moon asked.

These words were naturally directed at the evil god.

Everyone fell silent.

They all looked toward the evil god.

The evil god pondered for a moment and said, "I haven't seen many Otsutsuki myself, but I have seen many in my true form. Considering everything, her strength ranks among the top ten in the entire Otsutsuki clan. Of course, this is only based on the methods she has shown so far."

"Top ten!!"

Tobirama looked horrified.

That's it, we're doomed.

Although the ninja world has Kaguya and Nagato, even if they were combined, they probably wouldn't be a match for the other side.

"Why would someone like that remain hidden in the ninja world?"

Black Zetsu frowned, his head full of question marks.

It originally thought...

I had already hidden myself deep enough in the ninja world, but I never expected that first there would be an evil god, and then this Otsutsuki.

Thinking about it that way, it's nothing. Anyone hiding in the ninja world could easily strangle it.

Upon hearing this...

Everyone fell into deep thought once again.

Because what Black Zetsu said makes a lot of sense.

Yin Yue said in a deep voice:

"She must be searching for the reason for the fall of the Otsutsuki god, or the method by which the Otsutsuki clan became gods."

The evil god fell into deep thought.

Black Zetsu exclaimed in shock, "But how could such a small ninja world harbor such a secret?"

This is also what shocked Hashirama, Tobirama, Nagato, and the others at this moment.

You should know that, as the evil god said, this is an insignificant corner of the universe.

They had previously experienced space travel and knew just how vast the universe was.

Why should the ninja world be able to bear the secret of a true god's death and the method of ascending to godhood?

Yin Yue calmly said:

"Evil gods can descend upon this place, so nothing is impossible."

The real world.

Otsutsuki still had no better way to detect the discordant energy fluctuations in that environment.

Instead of thinking of a solution, she turned her attention to the fleeing ants.

"The funeral begins—"

In an instant.

The clouds in the sky seemed to thicken again, and the snow accelerated its condensation before falling in droves. At this moment, not only in Kumogakure, but in every corner of the entire ninja world, a blizzard began to fall. (End of Chapter)
