"Lord Buken!!"
Below, the Senju ninja screamed at the sight of Senju Buken's body split apart.
But Buken's death bought Senju Yuma enough time.
He fled from Susanoo's attack radius midair and landed back on the ground.
"Everyone, stay calm!" Senju Yuma shouted. "Uchiha Izuna used Izanagi. Buken and Toha died—unfortunately—but they created an opportunity for us!"
"Now he's lost an eye. His absolute combat power has dropped sharply. Seize the chance and take him down!"
"OHHH!!" the crowd roared, raising their hands.
Izuna also dropped back onto the Two-Tails.
Even with his left eye gone, he couldn't help laughing.
System Skill Tree:
[Kekkai Genkai: Sharingan (Learned) → Mangekyo Sharingan (Learned) → Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan (Locked, required Skill Points 300, requirement: Blood of a close relative (Obtained))
Can evolve: Rinnegan (Locked, required Skill Points ???, requirement ???)]
Available Skill Points: 303
Madara's blood—Izuna had already gotten it a year ago, when he went out to search for the Two-Tails.
Back then, Madara was curious what Izuna wanted it for, but he still gave it to him.
Learn Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan!
Izuna roared in his mind.
In an instant, on the system panel only Izuna could see, his Skill Points dropped from 303 to 3.
At the same time, the "Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan" line flared with light.
[Kekkai Genkai: Sharingan (Learned) → Mangekyo Sharingan (Learned) → Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan (Learned)
Can evolve: Rinnegan (Locked, required Skill Points 800, requirement: Senju Hashirama cells)]
Available Skill Points: 3
Very quickly, Izuna's left eye—once dull, turned white—recovered its luster.
The Mangekyo pattern in his eye shifted as well.
Around Izuna's humanoid tomoe shape, three ring-shaped tomoe appeared—linked end to end, rotating clockwise.
Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan!
However, it differed slightly from Madara's.
Madara's Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan had the humanoid tomoe on the outside and the ring tomoe inside.
Izuna's was the reverse—ring tomoe outside, his humanoid tomoe inside.
"Izuna... what's going on? Your Chakra feels colder," the Two-Tails suddenly asked.
From just now, the Chakra erupting from Izuna had made it deeply uncomfortable.
Not only the Two-Tails—many Senju and Uzumaki ninja below felt it too.
"Heh... heh... hahahahaha!!"
After obtaining the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, Izuna couldn't hold back any longer. He threw his head back and laughed wildly, Chakra exploding from him like a flash flood—like a tsunami—impossible to stop.
There were three advantages to gaining the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan.
Unlimited use of Mangekyo Sharingan ocular techniques.
Susanoo advancing to the Complete Body, with the terrifying power to let one man change the course of a war.
And his Chakra reserves doubling.
"Uchiha Izuna's Chakra changed—what in the world happened?" Uzumaki Hiro'umi blurted, stunned.
"Don't worry about it. Attack!" Senju Yuma struck first. His hands formed a seal sequence completely different from other Water Release users.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bite Break!"
A giant roaring dragon of water surged from behind him and flew forward—the same technique that had forced the Two-Tails back earlier.
Izuna instantly formed a humanoid Susanoo. The magatama in its hand spun, and Izuna glared at them with his right eye, coating them in terrifying inextinguishable flame.
Susanoo whipped its arm.
Blaze Release: Yasaka Magatama!
Senju Yuma's eyes widened. How could he still throw out a technique with this kind of power?
At this point in the battle, even Senju Hashirama—the current strongest of the Senju—should've been close to empty.
Senju Yuma didn't believe there existed any ninja with Chakra reserves bigger than Hashirama's—let alone an Uchiha, whose Chakra reserves were famously inferior to the Senju's.
Rumble—!
The two techniques collided midair and detonated.
Countless people below were caught in it. The Uzumaki hurriedly raised barriers to resist, but many were still blasted backward by the shockwave, smashing through cliff faces. After they fell, they coughed up blood.
"Still can't use the Complete Body Susanoo?" Izuna checked the flow of Chakra inside him.
Before fully adapting to the ocular power of the Eternal Mangekyo, he couldn't summon the Complete Body Susanoo.
But even so, this was enough.
"Izuna..." the Two-Tails began.
Izuna cut it off. "Do it, Two-Tails. Use the Tailed Beast Bomb!"
The Two-Tails frowned. "After fighting this long, my Chakra's almost gone too. This will be my last strike."
"After this strike, you withdraw to the Uchiha camp."
"And you'll be fine?"
"Heh. Heh."
Izuna answered with two cold, sinister chuckles.
The Two-Tails said nothing more. It opened its jaws and began condensing the energy needed for a Tailed Beast Bomb.
In the air at the edge of its mouth, countless watery bubbles appeared, gathering into a deep purple Chakra sphere right in front of its jaws.
Having seen this move more than once, Senju Yuma immediately shouted, "Move! Don't let that beast fire it!"
"Water Release: Water Severing Wave!"
"Wind Release: Great Wind Song!"
"Sealing Technique: Adamantine Sealing Chains!"
What rushed in head-on were all A-rank and above—high-level techniques.
Izuna dropped from above. His Chakra flared into silver flames as the humanoid Susanoo's lower body—its legs and feet—grew into place.
"Blaze Release: Amaterasu Shield!"
Amaterasu formed a wall of flame, blocking more than a dozen high-level techniques in a row.
Even any that slipped through were still easily stopped by Susanoo!
And at that moment, the Two-Tails completed its Tailed Beast Bomb.
Seeing it, Izuna controlled Susanoo and swung the Chakra stabbing sword in its hand, plunging the blade straight into the center of the Tailed Beast Bomb.
"Now! Susanoo Tailed Beast Bomb!"
The Two-Tails leapt—and fired.
