Uchiha's personal opinion

"What about Ryuchi Cave?"

The Third Raikage continued to ask.

"underground."

Onoki pointed to the ground beneath his feet.

"How many came?"

"Eight Thousand Ninja Snakes!"

"Is that so? Well, that's quite a lot of money."

The Third Raikage's voice was surprisingly gentle, completely unlike his usual fiery demeanor.

"The only option is to fight to the death."

Onoki said coldly, then activated the Light and Heavy Rock Technique and flew to a higher point in the sky!

At the same time, he added, "Earth Shadow will assist Yellow Earth in taking over command of the entire army!"

The Third Raikage gave a few instructions to his subordinates, and then used Lightning Release Chakra Mode to leap forward.

If the shogunate's ninja army were allowed to continue bombing, they would collapse on their own even before a formal battle could begin, if the time dragged on for a little while!

……

"Don't be stingy with your shells, keep bombing and washing the ground!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu continued to issue orders.

As wave after wave of barrages rained down, the Allied Ninja Army's positions were littered with severed limbs and wreckage, and the Cloud Village and Rock Village were in complete disarray.

As the Tsuchikage Onoki took to the air, a few desperate ninjas began to charge out from the previously completely scattered Allied Shinobi Forces, but they were quickly killed in the continuous bombardment.

The intensity of the shogunate's ninja army's artillery fire was such that even ordinary jonin could not completely dodge it!

But then the Third Raikage rushed out from behind, accompanied by lightning, and unleashed bolts of lightning chakra that shattered the chakra projectiles that were launched into the air!

"Increase the intensity!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu snorted coldly and continued to urge him on.

He simply couldn't believe it! Could one person possibly withstand the shogunate's thousands of heavy cannons?

However, Onoki, who was flying in mid-air, was indeed a threat that could not be ignored, and none of their side had anyone else who could withstand him.

"Shiina!"

After pondering for a moment, Uchiha Tokumitsu summoned Uchiha Shiina and instructed him, "You will take command of the upcoming battle!"

"Remember, as long as we don't lose our composure, we can't possibly lose no matter what happens. Just stay calm!"

"The specific battle strategy is with the ninja advisor. You can order the various units to go into battle when the time is right!"

After saying that, Uchiha Tokumitsu looked again at Onoki, who was gathering chakra in mid-air.

"Dust Release... What an annoying thing!"

After letting out a cold snort, Uchiha Tokumitsu said to Hanzo of the Salamander, "Mr. Hanzo, I'll leave the Raikage on the other side to you!"

"No problem!"

Hanzo the Salamander waved his kusarigama and calmly replied.

"And you... Jonin Yagura!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu continued, bowing his head, "Remember to use the Tailed Beast Balls to support the various departments in a timely manner!"

"understood……"

The short Yagura waved the iron staff in his hand and said with great helplessness.

Of the five tailed beasts or jinchūriki controlled by the shogunate, he was the one who was summoned to battle the most times. But that was because he had the best compatibility with the tailed beasts, and even his life was in the hands of Uchiha Tokumitsu!

At this moment, Onoki in mid-air had already condensed an astonishing amount of chakra and began to construct the jutsu formula!

"You may make the arrangements!"

Having said that, Uchiha Tokumitsu activated his Mangekyou Sharingan, first unleashing a dojutsu—

"Kaleidoscope Eye Technique: Okuninushi!"

The violent eye power swept across the entire ninja army, stimulating all the Uchiha ninjas to involuntarily activate their Sharingan.

The Uchiha ninjas felt stronger than ever before!

Then, the eye power fused with chakra and rapidly expanded outwards, transforming into a demonic body that enveloped Uchiha Tokumitsu and the Two-Tails Matatabi.

"Susanoo - Perfect Form!"

Accompanied by a violent surge of chakra, an enormous, three-headed, six-armed, two-winged demon god statue rose from the ground!

Riding the complete Susanoo, Uchiha Tokukō activated his Demon God Wings and also took flight!

Chapter 461 The Last Dance of the Will of Stone

As Onoki spread his hands, a semi-transparent cube spun between them. Surprisingly, it didn't have the surging chakra fluctuations of a typical ninjutsu, but it seemed to possess endless charm, drawing Uchiha Tokumitsu's gaze towards it.

"The legendary bloodline elimination..."

As Uchiha Tokumitsu soared into the sky atop his majestic Susanoo, he exclaimed in admiration, "Truly a secret technique created by a hero of his generation! It is the pinnacle of chakra ninjutsu!"

"The Uchiha clan has actually produced someone like you! I wonder if this is a blessing or a curse for the ninja world..."

Onoki chuckled coldly, and the semi-transparent cubic meter between his hands became even more solid as a massive amount of chakra was injected.

Onoki had no idea just how powerful the fully-formed Susanoo could be.

After all, Madara Uchiha defeated his teacher, the Second Tsuchikage Mu, who was the creator of Dust Release, all by himself. As for the Armored Susanoo, it was the strongest bloodline limit technique that Madara Uchiha used after betraying Konoha, when he fought against Hashirama Senju, the God of Shinobi, by bringing the Nine-Tails with him in the Valley of the End!

However, the red-eyed Uchiha kid in front of him was using a much weaker version of the Two-Tails to unleash his Susanoo...

"I'd also love to witness the pinnacle of ninjutsu..."

Under Uchiha Tokumitsu's control, the armored Susanoo stretched out its four arms forward, and a five-colored light condensed in its gathered palms. "After all, compared to the finite power of bloodlines, human wisdom is indeed infinite..."

"What is this thing again?!"

Ōnoki was startled as he gazed at the mysterious light within Susanoo's giant hand. Despite his exhaustion, he increased the speed at which he drew chakra.

"No need to rush!"

Hidden within the imposing Susanoo, Uchiha Tokumitsu's voice echoed between the three heads of the demon god, carrying a mesmerizing magical power as he said leisurely, "I'm ready, just take your time!"

"Don't worry! I won't ambush you! I am Uchiha Tokumitsu!"

"...How arrogant!"

Onoki gave a cold laugh.

However, this delay allowed him to successfully accumulate the power of the Dust Release technique to an unprecedented level!

Even during the Second Shinobi World War, in his life-or-death battle with the Third Raikage, he was unable to unleash such a powerful Dust Release!

After all, while Dust Release is powerful, it takes too long to prepare!

"So……"

Ohnoki can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The dust cube spinning between his palms finally condensed to an extreme degree!

"Next, let me weigh Onoki for two days—"

"Test your mettle, Your Excellency the Shogun of the Uchiha Clan—"

"Dust Escape—"

A beam of light, far brighter than the sun, burst forth from Onoki's palm, then quickly contracted, transforming into a cylinder—

"Primordial Debonding Technique!"

"As expected of the strongest secret technique in the ninja world!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu shouted, and the mysterious light that had gathered in the palms of the four arms of the Susanoo also shot towards Onoki's Dust Release pillar!

"Five-Colored Divine Light!"

In an instant, the two beams of light, each possessing the power to destroy the heavens and the earth, collided violently, carrying the will of their respective masters, and erupted into an incomparably fierce annihilation explosion!

"boom!"

A massive, multicolored sphere of light erupted between the two pillars of light.

The sphere of light first contracted inwards, then exploded into a sky full of fireworks, just like shattered glass.

Uchiha Tokumitsu also promptly manipulated his Susanoo to retract its giant arm and looked once again at Onoki, who was hovering in mid-air and seemed about to collapse after the fireworks had faded.

"I didn't lose!"

Even though his strongest attack failed to succeed, Onoki still refused to admit defeat!

"The mysteries of Dust Escape are indeed extraordinary... but you are getting old after all."

Uchiha Tokumitsu did not refute, but instead gave an objective evaluation: "For an old man like you to be able to unleash such power, you are already much stronger than Hiruzen Sarutobi!"

"Hum hum……"

While sneering, Onoki quickly adjusted his breathing, and at the same time, subtly slipped a secret pill into his mouth while wiping away sweat: "Comparing me to that dead monkey, who are you looking down on!"

"It's just that I feel time waits for no one, don't misunderstand..."

Under Uchiha Tokumitsu's control, the giant arm of the Susanoo formed a 'Tiger' shape, while the other four giant arms condensed into swords and bows: "But your strongest technique is no longer effective, and judging from your condition, you can't do it again... So, are you willing to submit?"

"The will of stone is my lifelong belief!"

Onoki's body quickly descended into the distance to avoid affecting the ninja army during their battle. "Come on! Let me witness the strongest power of the Uchiha clan!"

"Then I'll grant your wish!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu glanced at the battlefield below and saw that Hanzo of the Salamander was fighting the Third Raikage with his summoning beast, Ibuki of the Salamander. The two sides were probably evenly matched for the time being. Meanwhile, Yagura Karatachi had already transformed into his tailed beast form and was helping Hanzo of the Salamander fight the Third Raikage while also taking care of the battlefield.

Overall, the shogunate's ninja army is advancing with unstoppable momentum, and the combined forces of Iwagakure and Kumogakure are showing signs of defeat!

Uchiha Tokumitsu then manipulated Susanoo's wings to flap, flying towards the direction where Onoki had fallen.
