Chapter 187: Lord Madara, How Does It Feel to Rise and Fall Like This?
The nine-tomoe Rinnegan! The Tenseigan has also fully evolved! Absolutely incredible!
The Void Swallowing Flames absorbed Ashura's chakra, and combined with the looting mechanism of the Reincarnation Abyss, the feedback from Ashura's death pushed Uchiha Yi's powers to unprecedented heights.
The Rinnegan and Byakugan were both elevated to their ultimate forms, marking a transformation that surpassed anything previously imaginable.
As the last vestige of Ashura's presence was extinguished in the Reincarnation Abyss, Uchiha Yi, victorious, returned to the shinobi world.
When he reappeared, he found countless pairs of eyes fixed on him.
"How did it go?"
The one to approach him was none other than Mei Terumi, who shared the closest bond with him among those present.
"Ashura is dead," Uchiha Yi replied nonchalantly, as if delivering the most trivial news.
The crowd erupted in celebration, unable to contain their joy. The end of Ashura signified the end of war—no more senseless death, no more despair.
"Don't get too excited just yet!"
"But remember this!"
"From this moment onward, I will be the one to rule the shinobi world!"
"If anyone has objections, now is your chance to voice them. Fight me if you dare! However, if you choose to remain silent now and later attempt to undermine me in secret, do not blame me for my ruthlessness."
Uchiha Yi's chilling declaration was like a bucket of ice water poured over the crowd's enthusiasm. The stark reality of his intentions left them frozen in place.
"This…"
The shinobi world had never been unified, and no one could predict what a unified shinobi world might look like. To them, the unknown was far scarier than maintaining the fragile status quo.
Moreover, the Uchiha's reputation was steeped in madness and destruction.
One Uchiha had wiped out his entire clan in cold blood.
Another had plunged the world into chaos with an insatiable thirst for destruction.
Yet another had orchestrated an elaborate scheme to enslave the entire world in a dream.
And now, Uchiha Yi stood before them, promising domination. Could such a person be trusted?
The people were torn, their faces painted with hesitation and fear.
"What do you plan to do with the shinobi world?"
"What will happen to the various villages?"
"Generations of hatred and animosity won't just disappear overnight!"
Tsunade finally broke the silence, voicing the doubts that were on everyone's minds.
"Then I'll destroy the entire shinobi world!"
"How's that for an answer?"
Uchiha Yi's sarcastic response sent waves of unease through the crowd. Even those familiar with his sense of humor couldn't help but shudder.
But Tsunade, who knew him well, wasn't worried. She saw his comment as nothing more than an ill-timed joke, though its implications were no laughing matter.
"My fire will illuminate the entire shinobi world, bringing stability and peace."
"But make no mistake—it will also burn and obliterate anyone who defies me!"
"This is my Will of Fire!"
"What the shinobi world becomes is not up to me."
"It's up to you and the choices you make!"
Uchiha Yi's words were as resolute as they were domineering. He left no room for doubt: his rule would be absolute, and those who betrayed him would face annihilation.
For now, the shinobi who listened could only steel themselves. If they dared resist, they would soon realize the futility of opposing someone like Uchiha Yi.
As the crowd processed his ultimatum, Uchiha Yi turned and walked toward Madara, who lay battered and defeated on the ground.
"Well, Lord Madara!"
"I've got to ask—how does it feel to experience the rise and fall of a lifetime?"
"Care to share your thoughts with us?"
Crouching beside Madara, Uchiha Yi grinned mischievously, clearly reveling in the man's despair.
"You… already knew everything from the start, didn't you?"
Madara's voice was weak, but his question carried the weight of betrayal and regret.
"It's true. You got it right."
"I even warned you, didn't I? It's just that you failed to notice."
Uchiha Yi's smile widened as he watched the pain flash across Madara's face.
"You bastard…"
Madara's body trembled with anger, but he lacked the strength to act on it. If he weren't so utterly spent, he would have tried to wipe that smirk off Uchiha Yi's face.
"By the way, Lord Madara!"
"I've got a favor to ask. Don't worry—you'll be rewarded."
"Ha… don't mock me!"
"What could a dying man like me possibly do for you?"
Madara's voice was filled with bitterness. He didn't believe for a second that Uchiha Yi's request was genuine.
"You'll find out soon enough!"
"Let's just say I'm taking your silence as consent."
Before Madara could protest, Uchiha Yi pulled him into the Reincarnation Abyss.
"What is this place? What are you planning?"
Madara's weakened voice betrayed his unease as he looked around the eerie realm.
"Relax, Lord Madara!"
"It'll be over in no time."
Placing a hand on Madara's forehead, Uchiha Yi engraved a mark of the Flying Flame God into his soul—a mark that ensured Madara could never escape his reach.
Then, with a single, merciless strike, Uchiha Yi ended Madara's life.
After extracting Madara's Rinnegan and genetic material, Uchiha Yi summoned the Void Swallowing Flames to erase his body entirely.
The process was swift and clinical: kill, loot, and obliterate.
With the remnants of Madara's power now fully absorbed, Uchiha Yi's strength soared to even greater heights.
