Chapter 87 - One Against More Than a Thousand

"Now I will return to Heaven to take the place that is rightfully mine, and you won't be able to stop me…" Azazel shot upward, breaking the fragile barrier himself and unleashing a powerful attack against the rain of small fireballs.

"Light Shield!!!" Azazel quickly conjured a large shield that covered the temple from all the small fireballs, and pushed the gigantic shield forward.

The immense shield looked strange from a distance, like a bright lantern pushing against the sky. Itachi saw this, narrowed his eyes, stopped channeling his attack, and quickly his eyes shifted from their base state to Mangekyo Sharingan in an instant.

"Itachi Uchiha!!!" Azazel shouted fervently as he charged toward the ninja. In his eyes, besides accumulated anger, there was a certain hope, a certain excitement; his twelve wings moved fiercely behind him.

Itachi watched all this, a slight smile on his face, slowly shook his head while moving his eyes toward the gigantic shining shield ahead.

"Is this all you have? Pathetic…" the ninja blinked slightly, focused his eyes on the shield ahead, and a moment later a massive black fire began burning and evaporating the energy that composed the immense shield.

"Eh?" Azazel felt it, retreating several hundred meters as he moved away from the immense shield that burned until nothing remained. "What does this mean?" he wondered, confusion in his gaze.

The leader of the Fallen Angels quickly condensed a powerful sword of light in front of him.

Penemue, Kokabiel, Sariel, and Armaros quickly positioned themselves behind Azazel, each with a bright light sword of a different shape.

"I don't have time to waste on you, why not just end this?" Itachi smiled; the next moment he brought his hands together.

The sky darkened, black clouds quickly gathered. From the spot where Itachi stood emanated an absurd amount of chakra that quickly caught the attention of the Fallen Angels.

"We need to conjure a combined attack to defeat him!!!" Azazel shouted, drawing the attention of the Cadres and Fallen Angels below him. His eyes narrowed, his gaze became dangerous as he looked forward defiantly.

"Itachi Uchiha!!!" Azazel brought his palms together, all the Fallen Angels did the same, looking at the intruder from another world who had come to annihilate them. Each of the Fallen Angels had, besides hatred, hope in their eyes.

"We, the Fallen Angels, will reclaim the Heaven!!!" Azazel shouted; the other Fallen Angels nodded their heads, each condensing a flash of light of a different color in their hands.

However, facing this display of power and strength, Itachi simply gave a half-smile, observing them as if looking at ants before opening his mouth, "Why don't you just shut up?"

The next moment, a huge hundred-meter-tall Susanoo condensed with Itachi's body completely protected inside it.

"The Fallen Angels will return to Heaven!!!" With Azazel's shout, thousands of columns of light from all directions shot toward the Susanoo, hundreds of those revived by Orochimaru's Edo-Tensei moved forward to launch all kinds of attacks against the Susanoo in Itachi's sky.

Observing all this from a not-too-distant location, Orochimaru let out a slight sigh.

"The light is so bright it almost feels like I'm in that famous Heaven that little Azazel talks about. Don't you think so, Ruvall?" Orochimaru let out a small laugh while observing the completely bright sky.

The Snake moved slightly in his place, licked his lips, moved its body; its hands seemed almost to tremble uncontrollably, and finally it let out a crazy smile, "This level of Chakra… I should have expected it. Itachi-kun has fully fused demonic magic with Chakra; it seems they won't be able to stop us soon. Doesn't that make you happy? Kukuku" Orochimaru spoke while turning his head in a specific direction.

In that direction was a group of a boy and two girls, "Only you have returned, Kiba, Xenovia, Irina; it seems my premonitions about Koneko were correct… what a pity," Orochimaru slightly lowered his head as if expressing sorrow over the loss of a family member.

"What do you know? What is Koneko doing?!!" Kiba demanded, stepping forward, though he could not disobey Orochimaru's orders or harm him, that did not prevent him from speaking.

"Koneko? I'm afraid I've lost connection with her; she's probably wandering around, but she has likely lost her rationality… most likely," Orochimaru smiled. Kiba tried to ask more but could not; the Snake immobilized him with a thought.

In the sky, after receiving the attack from thousands of powerful beings, Itachi's Susanoo remained hidden by the smoke formed from previous attacks.

It still remained there, and if someone looked from beneath the cloud, they could see the Susanoo in perfect condition.

The first to notice was Azazel, who saw it with wide eyes and a palpitating heart. A deep fear took hold of his body as his mind began to think, "How the hell is it possible that the combination of all the Fallen Angels' attacks and Orochimaru's revived help has not managed to bring down the ninja?"

"Brothers…!!" Azazel shouted, about to give orders when at that moment a powerful sword appeared, piercing through his body and the other Cadres as if that sword were a hologram.

"What?" Azazel squinted his eyes, about to speak when he felt his soul being slowly absorbed by the giant sword.

His eyes widened with absolute terror, his mind filled with many thoughts, he tried to move his body like the other Cadres, but it was impossible.

"You've been making too much noise lately; Why don't you just shut up?" Itachi said from a distance, watching with calm eyes Azazel's body slowly being devoured by Totsuka.

"It's incredible how the Fallen Angels dare to challenge Angels and Demons with only you in command, it's rare…" Itachi smiled, seeing Azazel's body slowly absorbed by Totsuka while he shouted some curses.

Before being completely absorbed by Totsuka, Azazel could not help but let out one last look at Itachi, seeing his determined gaze, those strange, hidden cold eyes.

He could only let out a slight laugh as his body was completely absorbed and his soul sealed.

The Fallen Angels had no escape, nor did Orochimaru's revived. With just a swing of Totsuka, Itachi could kill hundreds of them, seal them, and take their souls.

None of the attacks against the Susanoo were effective, and in just a blink, the Fallen Angels were erased from the world along with much of Orochimaru's revived.

All this before the eyes of the Snake, who kept smiling brightly. He saw Itachi moving in the sky, balancing the Susanoo, killing without remorse.

And when Itachi appeared in front of him in just a blink, with the sky full of black clouds and lightning here and there, he could not help but look at Itachi with a gaze that said a thousand things.

"You did great, Itachi-kun. Doesn't this scene remind you of something? You killed everyone here, you know…" Orochimaru smiled while sitting on his legs, placing his hands on the ground as if channeling something.

"The Uchiha Clan massacre, Remember? It was exactly the same…" Itachi could not help but narrow his eyes upon hearing that.
