Feng Ye slowly dispelled the powerful and majestic Susanoo state. As the light faded, he gently landed on the ground.
After landing, Feng Ye slightly closed his eyes, and a sharp, intense pain instantly surged through his heart, filling his eyes.
After all, this was not the power of the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. Using the third form of Susanoo at such high intensity in one go was simply too taxing on his body and eyes.
On the other side, Uchiha Itachi's condition was even worse.
He was already severely injured, yet he forcefully activated the third form of Susanoo. At this moment, he felt as if his entire body had been drained, his strength seemingly abandoning him, probably on the verge of collapse.
Not only that, compared to the original work, Itachi's third form displayed this time was clearly incomplete.
One must know that in the original work, his Susanoo possessed divine artifacts.
"Uchiha Feng Ye! Who... exactly are you?" Although at his limit, Itachi still gritted his teeth and struggled to stand, his gaze fixed on Feng Ye, questioning him with a trembling voice.
"I have nothing to say to a traitor like you; you're not worthy of listening!" Feng Ye walked over, intending to finish him off. There were still many matters to resolve in Konoha, and he didn't have time to waste on Itachi.
"Feng Ye! Stop!" Uchiha Fugaku appeared in front of Feng Ye right on time, speaking sharply.
"Clan Leader, I'm executing a traitor. Why are you stopping me?" Feng Ye looked at the father and son with a playful expression.
"Itachi, I will hand him over to the Uchiha Clan for discussion before his disposal." Fugaku's expression was solemn and grim, as if a thousand-pound burden weighed on his heart.
"What a joke! He dared to attack his own clansmen. If the Great Elder and I hadn't arrived in time today, the Uchiha Clan would probably no longer exist! Such a crime of betraying the clan deserves the ultimate punishment. May I ask, Clan Leader, what is there left to discuss?" Uchiha Feng Ye's face was full of disdain, his words brimming with sarcasm.
Speaking of Uchiha Fugaku, he truly was the most incompetent and useless clan leader in history.
He actually allowed his own son to massacre his fellow clansmen, almost wiping out the entire Uchiha Clan. And at the very last moment, he even spouted nonsense, claiming that the death of the clansmen was merely a brief pain, and only Uchiha Itachi's suffering was long-lasting.
Tsk, tsk, I really wonder if this Clan Leader ever considered whether those clansmen who fought desperately for the Uchiha Clan, only to end up with their families destroyed, would be willing to endure this so-called 'short pain'?
However, in the face of Uchiha Feng Ye's accusations and questions, Fugaku's expression remained unchanged. He slowly said, "Even if it is a capital offense, according to clan rules, it should only be carried out after discussion."
Hearing this, Uchiha Feng Ye couldn't help but sneer, "Heh heh, you truly are a 'diligent and responsible' clan leader! Now I finally understand why the Uchiha Clan's status has declined day by day over the years."
Before his words finished, Fugaku's eyes, which had been relatively calm, instantly became incredibly gloomy. He stared intently at Uchiha Feng Ye, asking word by word, "What did you say!?"
"You didn't act against the traitor, waiting for him to kill off the clansmen, and now you're obstructing the execution of the traitor. I truly suspect you've also betrayed us."
"Uchiha Feng Ye! You are insulting the Clan Leader! Do you know that based on those words alone, I could sentence you to death?!" Fugaku's face was livid as he roared at Feng Ye.
"If you insist on protecting him today, then don't blame me!" Feng Ye burst out laughing.
He couldn't let Uchiha Itachi go today. Ever since he transmigrated, the shadow of the Night of the Clan Massacre had always loomed over him, making him anxious day in and day out, even risking danger to steal the water of heroism.
If he let this beast go today, how could he face the half-year of fear and preparation he had endured?
"What do you want to do!?" Fugaku tensed his entire body. Behind him, Uchiha Itachi, who had been closing his eyes to digest the pain, also opened his eyes and watched him warily.
"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!" With a furious roar, raging flames erupted from Feng Ye's mouth like a volcanic eruption, instantly engulfing the entire battlefield.
Flames soared to the sky, and heat waves rolled, as if to incinerate everything in this world.
At this moment, Uchiha Setsuna, who was at the front, was startled. He keenly sensed a powerful and violent Chakra fluctuation coming from behind.
"What's going on?" Setsuna frowned and looked back.
He had thought the battle was over, but the sudden turn of events caught him completely off guard.
Could it be that Uchiha Itachi still hadn't given up resisting and was making a final desperate struggle? Setsuna mused inwardly.
Just then, Danzo made a decisive move, waved his hand, and shouted loudly, "Retreat quickly!" He knew that staying here would only put them at a disadvantage, gaining nothing and even risking heavy injuries.
So, he led his Ninja subordinates to quickly retreat in the direction of Konoha Village.
A Ninja nearby saw this and quickly asked Uchiha Setsuna, "Great Elder, should we pursue them?"
However, Uchiha Setsuna merely shook his head gently and calmly replied, "There's no need to pursue. Our internal problems are not yet resolved, and a rash pursuit might be counterproductive. Moreover, if we chase after them, we might encounter reinforcements from Konoha Village, and the situation will become even more troublesome."
Immediately after, Uchiha Setsuna turned around and shouted loudly to the people around him, "Everyone, listen up! Immediately follow me back to support Feng Ye and the Clan Leader! We must completely eliminate that traitor!"
Before his words finished, the Ninja responded in unison, following closely behind Uchiha Setsuna, rushing towards Feng Ye's direction.
Meanwhile, Feng Ye, standing in the distance, gazed at Fugaku's gradually revealing Mangekyo Sharingan, a cold smile slowly forming at the corner of his mouth, and he slowly said, "Clan Leader, I suddenly feel now that compared to Uchiha Itachi behind you, you seem to deserve death even more..."
His strength should have been able to stop Itachi, but he chose to stand by, as if the Uchiha Clan's demise had nothing to do with him.
If it were an ordinary person, perhaps people could barely accept his inaction due to an unwillingness to harm his own flesh and blood.
However, he was no ordinary person! As the dignified Clan Leader of the Uchiha Clan, the survival of the entire clan rested solely on him.
"Is this what you call being helpless against Uchiha Itachi?!" Feng Ye scoffed.
Facing Feng Ye's questioning, Fugaku's eyes grew even colder and more ruthless, like ten thousand years of ice.
He said nothing, only slowly and silently released the powerful ocular power within him.
In an instant, dazzling light burst forth from his blood-red eyes, and his Mangekyo Sharingan began to spin rapidly.
At the same time, a mysterious and terrifying power continuously surged from his body, and a dark green Chakra skeleton gradually condensed around him.
Susanoo!
Itachi, behind Fugaku, was also filled with shock. Clearly, he had not expected his own father to possess the Mangekyo.
"Uchiha Feng Ye, you won't kill Itachi today!" Uchiha Fugaku's voice boomed like thunder, echoing in the air.
