Chapter 330: Don't Call Me Despicable
A storm of lightning erupted around the Third Raikage as he stood facing Uchiha Mirai, who remained motionless in place.
In the next instant, the Third Raikage became a flash of lightning, dashing straight toward Mirai.
"Such incredible speed."
Rasa, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Mū, and Gengetsu Hōzuki were all taken aback.
From their perspective, the Third Raikage had reached the pinnacle of speed.
Meanwhile, Obito and Black Zetsu silently observed the battlefield from within the Kamui dimension.
Like hunters lurking in the shadows, they were merely waiting for Mirai to show an opening—then they would strike with a fatal blow.
After all…
They never believed that the shinobi present could deal with Mirai on their own.
...
"Trying to gather intel at close range during battle?"
"What a weakling's strategy."
Mirai had already seen through Obito's intent, but he didn't care in the slightest.
His trump cards were endless—he could keep fighting for an entire day and night without exhausting them.
Obito's plan was destined to be futile.
While he was lost in thought, the Third Raikage had already reached him.
"Die!"
With a furious roar, the Third Raikage bent his arm, preparing to deliver a devastating strike to Mirai's neck.
But in the next moment, his body was riddled with countless tiny holes.
"This is… Ice Release?!"
Only then did the Third Raikage notice that within Mirai's immediate surroundings, an innumerable number of minuscule ice crystals floated in the air, forming an almost imperceptible barrier.
Yet, he ignored it and continued his attack.
"Lightning Release: Lightning Brutality Chop!"
His hand, charged with immense lightning, slashed toward Mirai.
Mirai simply tilted his body slightly.
"You're just as reckless as your dead son. That kind of personality is really annoying."
Boom!
Mirai's punch landed, and the Third Raikage's body was shattered under the immense force.
Watching this, Rasa couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.
This monster… he was just as terrifying as ever.
...
Thanks to the Edo Tensei Jutsu, the Third Raikage's body reformed instantly.
Gengetsu Hōzuki sighed. "If not for this special body, that fight would have already been decided."
"The Kazekage and Hokage were right—this guy is a troublesome opponent."
Hearing that, the Third Raikage scoffed. "If I were in my real body, I wouldn't be this fragile."
Then, his gaze shifted to Hiruzen Sarutobi. "Hokage, he said my son is dead. What does he mean?"
Hiruzen shook his head. "I'm not sure… but he probably killed him."
The Third Raikage clenched his fists. "That bastard…"
He wanted to ask more, but his body started moving on its own.
At the same time, Rasa, Gengetsu Hōzuki, Hiruzen Sarutobi, and Mū all rushed toward Uchiha Mirai.
The Third Raikage, being the fastest, reached him first.
But just like before, the moment he got close, Mirai shattered his body with a single punch.
...
Mū revealed himself in midair, spreading his hands wide and locking onto Mirai.
"Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!"
A beam capable of disintegrating matter at the atomic level shot toward Mirai at terrifying speed.
Casually, Mirai lifted his fan and smirked.
The Dust Release was instantly reversed, erasing half of Mū's body.
Taking advantage of the distraction, Gengetsu Hōzuki formed hand seals.
"Water Release: Water Gun Jutsu!"
A high-pressure water bullet shot toward Mirai, while Gengetsu summoned his illusionary technique.
"Demonic Illusion: Steaming Multistoried Building!"
A vast mirage formed around them, concealing himself and his allies from Mirai's sight.
There was no choice—this opponent was too monstrous.
First, he annihilated the Third Raikage in an instant, then he crushed the Second Tsuchikage immediately after…
Direct confrontation wasn't an option. They had to rely on strategy.
Using the cover of the mirage, Hiruzen closed in on Mirai, summoning his adamantine staff and hurling it to form a cage around him.
A devastating combination of all five nature transformations rained down upon Mirai, engulfing him in destruction.
At the same time, the Second Mizukage's oil clone lunged forward.
The oil clone rapidly expanded and began exploding repeatedly.
Meanwhile, Rasa had already completed his preparations. Clapping his hands together, an immense amount of gold sand surged from the ground, burying Mirai within a massive, indestructible pyramid-shaped seal.
The structure was covered in countless sealing marks, ensuring that Mirai was completely confined.
After the intense battle, the five of them stood their ground, catching their breath.
Though the fight had been short, it was extremely perilous.
If not for their coordinated assault, combined with their undead bodies making them unkillable, taking down Mirai would have been nearly impossible.
The Third Raikage snorted.
"I never expected the ninja world to produce such an exceptional shinobi after my death. He's far too powerful."
Staring at the massive golden pyramid, Rasa muttered, "Five against one… Don't call us despicable."
Hiruzen remained silent, watching the pyramid intently.
Was it really over?
Gengetsu Hōzuki clapped his hands. "Alright, everyone. The battle is over. We can return to the Pure Land and rest in peace."
Just as he finished speaking, the pyramid suddenly shattered.
...
A colossal Susanoo stood tall, completely unscathed, protecting Uchiha Mirai within its shimmering armor.
"Who said the battle was over?"
"I'm not done playing yet."
Mirai clapped his hands together.
In an instant, over twenty clones surrounded the five Kage.
Each one activated a fully-formed Susanoo.
Rasa and the others stood frozen, their expressions blank with shock.
Mirai sat down, resting his chin on his hand with a lazy smirk.
"Now this is five versus one."
"Don't call me despicable. You're the Five Kage."
The moment his words fell, twenty-five Susanoo-clad clones launched their attacks in unison.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The ground trembled, and lightning exploded through the battlefield.
As the Five Kage scrambled in desperation, Mirai smiled.
No wonder, in the original story, Uchiha Madara didn't unleash his full power from the start when fighting the Five Kage.
Toying with them like this… really was amusing.
