'Susanoo!'
Uchiha Jin didn't waste any words and directly used his finishing move.
Almost in an instant.
Accompanied by the frantic spinning of the Mangekyo, his target Nagato showed irreversible signs of madness all over his body.
However.
Different from all previous times, Uchiha Jin's Dōjutsu Power drained frantically, even causing a trail of blood to flow from his eye.
How is this possible?
Uchiha Jin was startled, finding it hard to believe.
After all, he now possessed the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan; as long as he didn't exhaust all his Dōjutsu Power in a single moment, it could be replenished almost instantly. But now, even though he had instantly drained nine-tenths of the Dōjutsu Power in his eyes, he still hadn't caused the Nagato before him to completely collapse.
Could it be—the Rinnegan?
To put it bluntly, Dōjutsu must also obey the law of conservation of energy. There is no such thing as an invincible Ninjutsu. Although his Susanoo's effect seemed exaggerated, it was likewise impossible to achieve an instant kill when facing an opponent of the same level.
"As expected, no surprises there!"
"With my current abilities, it's still a bit impossible to truly insta-kill a Beyond-Kage level like Nagato."
"In that case, let's just have a direct fight."
Uchiha Jin narrowed his eyes and quickly regained his composure.
He didn't actually intend to kill Nagato or Konan. After all, the Akatsuki Organization at this stage was still useful to him, and he didn't want to face an Uchiha Madara with the Rinnegan at this point.
As for keeping the Rinnegan?
He hadn't even thought about it!
One must realize these were Uchiha Madara's eyes. Uchiha Jin absolutely refused to believe that Madara hadn't left some hidden measures behind on them.
First of all, he wouldn't dare use them if he took them, and even just leaving them aside wouldn't be safe.
He feared that after Black Zetsu brought Uchiha Madara back via Edo Tensei, Madara would simply summon the eyes back through a teleportation technique.
Therefore, at the very least...
Until he had completely unified the Ninja World and possessed the strength to defeat Uchiha Madara, he still needed the Akatsuki Organization to remain on the front lines.
'Susanoo!'
Uchiha Jin's exhausted Dōjutsu Power recovered completely in the blink of an eye. Then, he directly manifested the complete version of Susanoo, and a two-hundred-meter-tall armored giant stood upon the earth.
He directly controlled the Susanoo giant to draw the tachi at its waist and slashed down toward Nagato, Konan, and the others.
To be honest...
Unless facing another Susanoo giant or Senju Hashirama's Great Buddha, bringing out such a giant was essentially meaningless. Uchiha Jin's willingness to show this form now wasn't actually to kill Konan and Nagato; at most, it was merely to put on a show.
The purpose was to intimidate Konoha!
After all, Senju Hashirama had already displayed his Wood Release Great Buddha. If he, as the Hokage, couldn't show a comparable ability, his authority within Konoha would be challenged in the future.
And indeed, that was the case.
As Uchiha Jin summoned his Susanoo, both the people of Konoha and Minato Namikaze's group in the distance stared blankly at the giant before them, which was not inferior to Senju Hashirama's Wood Release Great Buddha.
"This... how is this possible?"
"Has Uchiha Jin become powerful to this extent? Even Lord Hashirama would find it difficult to suppress him now, right?"
"Unbelievable, is this even still a Ninja?"
The onlookers spoke up one after another.
Even Senju Tobirama, who had seen Susanoo before, couldn't help but show a look of disbelief on his face.
It couldn't be helped!
Although he had seen Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara clash before, the Susanoo summoned by Uchiha Madara at that time simply couldn't reach the level of the Uchiha Jin before him.
And the one with the ugliest expression was Minato Namikaze!
As the Fourth Hokage, he naturally had his own pride.
No matter how gentle he appeared on ordinary days, he was proud to his core, believing himself to be absolutely no inferior to any other Hokage.
And indeed, that was the case.
During the time he was alive, even against Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was hailed as the strongest Hokage, while he seemed respectful and deferential on the surface, he didn't actually think he would lose.
But today?
Senju Hashirama's Wood Release Great Buddha had directly and completely shattered his worldview.
Now, seeing Uchiha Jin's Susanoo shocked him to a state of near numbness.
The gap was too large!
He felt that if he ran into these two, his Flying Thunder God Technique would be utterly meaningless.
Although he hadn't seen Senju Tobirama fight, a Second Hokage who could create the Flying Thunder God Technique and many forbidden techniques would surely be stronger than himself, the Fourth, even if he wasn't as good as the Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Jin before him.
After all...
The Flying Thunder God Technique he was so proud of, while he had made certain optimizations, was essentially still Senju Tobirama's technique.
But just as Minato Namikaze was secretly comparing himself, he suddenly noticed Shisui, Fugaku, and Itachi charging in from the distance.
They all activated their Mangekyo, and three more Susanoo stood tall on the spot, firmly trapping Nagato and Konan in the middle.
Minato Namikaze: "..."
His mouth twitched, and his whole being went numb.
Why?
He couldn't figure it out!
The Uchiha at this stage were way too overpowered. Who could resist four whole Susanoo?
Although the Susanoo of Fugaku and the other two were clearly much smaller than Uchiha Jin's, they were still massive behemoths to ordinary Ninjas, okay?
"This old man's guess was indeed correct; Uchiha Itachi has also awakened the Mangekyo."
"Aren't Fugaku and Shisui at the military district? Why did the two of them suddenly rush back?"
"It's not their day to report for duty either?"
Senju Tobirama crossed his arms.
His brow was slightly furrowed at this moment, clearly not quite understanding the situation.
However, it could be considered a good thing!
Since it was confirmed that the Akatsuki Organization's target was Konoha, there was no need to worry about the safety of other military districts. Even if we can't truly keep the Akatsuki Organization here today, we must at least establish Konoha's reputation.
Thinking of this, he immediately spoke up: "Everyone, it's time for us to act!"
"Show Konoha's momentum. We want everyone to know that our Konoha is no soft target."
"No force, including the Akatsuki Organization, has the right to be arrogant within Konoha's borders!"
"Do you see 그 woman?"
"She must be the Konan that Uchiha Jin mentioned. Our goal this time is that woman. Even if we are limited by Konoha's subsequent plans and cannot forcibly kill or detain Nagato for now, that woman Konan must be kept here!"
"Konoha must not be insulted!"
"Attack!"
