It's just that the Uchiha Clan previously had the Senju Clan as their old nemesis, so they didn't pay much attention to the Hyuga.
With the downfall of the Senju Clan, the Hyuga became the primary external rival of the Uchiha Clan, and the two families began a long-running, overt and covert struggle.
When members of the Uchiha Clan without the Mangekyo Sharingan appeared, they were only slightly stronger than the Hyuga Clan.
However, the Hyuga Clan had the support of the Hokage Faction, and the number of Uchiha Clan members awakening the Sharingan continued to decrease during the Second and Third Ninja World Wars.
The Uchiha Clan's power continuously weakened, and the Hyuga even showed a tendency to surpass the Uchiha Clan.
At this moment, Uchiha En made a forceful move, directly breaking into the Hyuga Clan and slaughtering half of the Hyuga Main Family members.
The Hyuga Clan was completely powerless to fight back, and subsequently, they simply retreated like cowards.
Furthermore, two days ago, during the Night of the Nine-Tails, Uchiha En directly killed Danzo Shimura, who coveted the Uchiha Clan's Sharingan.
He almost single-handedly defeated the Nine-Tailed and protected the Village.
Combining these factors, Uchiha En's prestige within the Uchiha Clan reached its peak almost instantly.
Whether they were clan members who had just awakened the Sharingan or children still studying at the Ninja Academy, everyone in the Uchiha Clan greatly admired Uchiha En.
Due to Uchiha En's presence, the hawk faction and the dove faction no longer had any disputes.
Uchiha En now had the final say over the entire Police Force, excluding Uchiha "A complete transformation?"
"What do you mean?"
Akaza clutched his throbbing head in confusion. "Who exactly are you people?! Stop messing with my mind!"
Forcing down the throbbing nerves, Akaza raised his fist again, striking Yoizumi's diagonally swung nichirin blade.
His arm was split in two, blood splattering onto Akaza's face. The scorching pain of the nichirin blade was intense, but not as strong as the agony brought by the memories in his mind.
In his vision, swirling snowflakes beat against his face, stinging Akaza's cheeks intensely.
His intact fist, guided by the Compass, punched to the right, and the blazing firelight illuminated Akaza's bewildered golden eyes.
Under Akaza's final attack, the one-armed Kyoujurou was clearly unable to defend himself. The powerful blow sent Kyoujurou crashing down, falling several stories before stopping.
"It's truly difficult to return!" Kyojuro Rengoku rejoined the battle!
On the other side.
Tanjirou stared intently at Akaza's back, recalling Akaza's every move. Every one of his attacks was as precise as a Compass, aimed at the human body's weak points.
Suddenly, Tanjirou remembered a conversation he once had with Inosuke.
"Even from behind, my skin can easily sense attacks with killing intent, big shot."
"But without killing intent, it's very difficult to detect."
A light slowly spilled from Tanjirou's crimson eyes, connecting these words.
Fighting spirit, killing intent, Compass… Could Akaza's snowflake array technique on the ground detect killing intent?
Tanjirou decided to try.
Holding his breath, as Akaza fought against Yoizumi and Kyoujurou, Tanjirou took a deep breath.
Hinokami Kagura: Waltz!
Akaza blocked the two glowing nichirin blades, sensed something, and without hesitation, delivered an incredibly fast spinning kick to his side.
"Ugh!" Barely blocking in time with his nichirin blade, Tanjirou was sent flying backward. Now he could basically confirm it!
Akaza could detect killing intent!
Breath of Snow Fifth Form: Ice Sleet Shower!
Slightly lowering his stance, a vast amount of cold permeated the air. Just being in the swirling white mist made it feel as if breathing would cease.
Freezing the moisture in the air condensed by the attack, a large number of ice cones appeared in the air. As Yoizumi swung his blade like a blur, the sound of cracking ice echoed.
The ice shards, upon impact with the skin, brought an extreme, numbing cold.
Snow Breathing Fourth Form: Wind-Ravaged Blizard!
Violent ice winds, mixed with countless ice needles, swept towards Akaza. The toxins previously injected by Shinobu had now spread to his internal organs as he continuously stimulated his regenerative cells. The potent toxins almost made Akaza's vision go black.
How could he be defeated by poison…!
Move!
Move!
With his fingertips digging into his flesh, Akaza continuously urged his body forward. Just as he was about to escape the range of the ice wind, his body uncontrollably fell downwards… "Hoh…?"
Tanjirou had appeared behind him at some point and successfully cut off his ankle with one strike.
Hinokami Kagura: Burning Sun!
At this moment, Tanjirou's crimson eyes and dark red hair glowed with a different shade of red.
"What?"
