The deafening roar of the Susanoo echoed throughout Kirigakure, sending villagers scrambling for safety as ninja ushered them away.
Powerful Shinobi converged on the ruins of the Mizukage Tower, their faces contorted with rage as they beheld the towering Susanoo.
"Kaguya Clan, attack!"
The Kaguya Clan Head, a fierce warrior, led the charge, followed by a horde of battle-hungry Kaguya.
"Tsk, more and more are gathering."
Shin noticed cracks appearing on the Susanoo's armor, but he wasn't worried.
The relentless attacks were taking their toll. Even the Susanoo was starting to buckle.
Seeing the widening cracks, Shin quickly channeled Chakra to repair the damage.
The Kiri Shinobi, who had cheered at the sight of the damaged Susanoo, now felt despair as the cracks vanished.
Sensing their despair, the Third Mizukage yelled, "Don't give up! Maintaining that Susanoo must be draining! We can outlast him!"
He was right. The Susanoo was powerful, but it consumed a lot of energy.
Shin could handle the Chakra consumption, but it was also draining his ocular power.
His Mangekyō Sharingan couldn't withstand prolonged use.
He cut down several Kaguya with his sword, then deactivated the Susanoo. He couldn't afford to exhaust his ocular power. He needed it to escape with Yomotsu Hirasaka.
"He's weakening! Keep attacking!"
The Third Mizukage shouted excitedly.
"Fire Style: Great Dragon Fire Jutsu!"
A massive fire dragon erupted, incinerating several Kiri Shinobi before being extinguished by the Mizukage's Water Style Jutsu.
"Kill him!" the Mizukage roared.
A barrage of Ninjutsu, Kunai, and Shuriken rained down on Shin.
"I'm done playing with you."
Shin activated Yomotsu Hirasaka, stepping through a portal.
The portal vanished, and the attacks missed their mark.
...
"Mizukage-sama, he's gone!"
An Elite Jōnin reported.
The Mizukage's face was grim. Kirigakure had suffered heavy casualties, and they hadn't even captured the intruder.
They didn't even know how he had escaped.
"
The Kiri Shinobi were frustrated and angry. They were one of the Five Great Villages! Someone had infiltrated their village, killed hundreds of their Shinobi, burned down countless houses, and escaped! This was a disgrace.
If they found Shin, they would make him pay.
The Mizukage was the most furious of all. He had failed to protect the Forbidden Scroll. He had no face left.
He opened his eyes, which were usually closed, revealing a chilling glint. He was a "Tojitame" (someone with perpetually closed eyes), and when a 'Tojitame' opened their eyes, it meant trouble.
"Uchiha... Konoha..."
He gritted his teeth. He would make Konoha pay for this. He wouldn't let this go.
Shin had claimed to be Uchiha Madara, but the Mizukage didn't believe that. But he was certain the intruder was an Uchiha.
"Calm the villagers. I will handle this."
The Mizukage said to the other Shinobi.
He would send someone to Konoha to demand an explanation. The Mangekyō Sharingan was unmistakable. He would hold Konoha and the Uchiha Clan accountable.
Shin had tried to use Madara as a scapegoat, but the Mizukage didn't believe Madara was alive. Now Konoha and the Uchiha Clan would bear the brunt of his anger.
