Chapter 306: Tobirama’s Departure

Read 20+ Chapter's Ahead in Patreon

In the midst of Kyōsuke's astonished expression, the transparent figure of the Death God (Shinigami) slowly emerged behind Tobirama.

The short blade clutched in its mouth exuded an aura of lifelessness, a presence so chilling that any living being who laid eyes on it could not escape the grip of fear.

It was the very essence of death itself, a terror that reached deep into the core of one's being, beyond control or comprehension.

"Didn't expect this, did you, Uchiha Kyōsuke?" Tobirama sneered, his lips curling into a vicious smile. "I will unleash the ultimate sealing technique of the Uzumaki Clan."

"Today, you will pay the price for your arrogance."

"That sounds familiar… I believe you said something similar years ago," Kyōsuke remarked, scratching his head in a casual, almost amused manner. To an outsider, it would appear as though two old friends were simply engaging in a light-hearted chat.

From start to finish, Tobirama felt no trace of fear or hesitation from Kyōsuke.

"Heh, you're good at hiding your emotions," Tobirama thought with conviction in his heart. The person beside him, Kyōsuke, was simply pretending to be calm, trying to conceal the nervousness he surely felt.

The Death God's power was exceedingly unique. Anyone who fell within its influence was almost certain to face a death sentence.

No matter how skilled one might be, whether they had mastered the Seven Chakra Natures of Ninjutsu or called themselves a legendary powerhouse, before the Death God, none of it mattered. It was irrelevant. All that remained was the inevitable end.

Of course, the price for this power was steep. The soul of the victim would be sealed away for all eternity.

Yet, in Tobirama's mind, the cost was worth it. He would pay any price to defeat Kyōsuke.

Even if it meant losing the chance for reincarnation.

"Cough, well, um…" Kyōsuke awkwardly scratched his head, a sheepish grin spreading across his face as he cut off Tobirama's self-satisfied monologue. "I forgot to mention, I might be a little more familiar with the Death God than you. Just a tiny bit more, mind you."

"Just a tiny bit, that's all."

Tobirama, visibly confused, stared at him, clearly unable to grasp the meaning of Kyōsuke's words.

Seeing the blank expression on his face, Kyōsuke sighed in exasperation, shaking his head before casually waving toward the towering figure behind him.

At that moment, an enormous apparition of the King of Hell materialized behind Kyōsuke. The contrast between the two figures was staggering—Tobirama's Death God appeared almost laughable in comparison to the sheer magnitude of the King of Hell's presence.

In Tobirama's memories, he had never encountered any force capable of altering the Death God's power. Yet now, he watched in disbelief as the massive mouth of the King of Hell swallowed the Death God whole, its tongue lapping up the figure as if it were mere noodles.

When the suffocating weight of the Dead Demon Consuming technique vanished, Tobirama felt an overwhelming sense of disbelief. He stood stunned, struggling to process what had just happened.

The truth was, even before Kyōsuke had decided to engage in a life-or-death battle against Isshiki, he had thoroughly researched the Death God.

He was absolutely certain that the power of the Rinnegan could harm him. That was why he had no qualms about sealing his own soul.

What he hadn't expected was that Tobirama would rely on the Death God as his trump card. It seemed that he was bound to feel disappointed and disheartened.

"Good boy," Kyōsuke said, patting Tobirama's head like a pet with a mocking smile. "Now you know, right? You're no match for me."

"You're a bastard!"

Before Tobirama could react, Kyōsuke suddenly reached out and grabbed him by the throat.

With his left fist clenched, Kyōsuke struck him in the abdomen with a devastating blow that nearly made Tobirama lose consciousness.

"Is the Senju really that powerful?"

BOOOOOM!!!

Kyōsuke spun and kicked him away, but before Tobirama could hit the ground, Kyōsuke was already on top of him, landing a powerful punch.

"Did you steal my techniques?"

Grabbing him by the collar, Kyōsuke swung him around, smashing him repeatedly into the ground, perfectly recreating the scene of Hulk beating Loki.

"Are you so intent on opposing the Uchiha?"

BOOOOM!!!

"Do you want to compete with me for Hokage?"

BAAANNG!!!

"You secretly went after my son?"

BOOOOOM!!!

"Do you think you're good at scheming?"

BAAANNG!!!

"You think you're more handsome than me?"

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!

When Kyōsuke finally stopped, out of breath, Tobirama was left battered and unrecognizable, his face completely swollen and bruised.

Even if Hashirama were resurrected, he'd have trouble recognizing his beloved younger brother.

Kyōsuke lifted him by the throat with one hand and spoke in a cold, detached tone.

"Anything else you want to say?"

"You... spare them, they are innocent."

Innocent?

Many of these people's parents and siblings had blood on their hands, stained by the Uchiha clan. How could they be innocent?

Did you consider innocence when you forced Uchiha Itachi to slaughter his own parents and murder his siblings? Did the Hokage of the Senju clan faction ever think about innocence then?

You gathered a pile of Sharingan and embedded them into your arms. Did you ever think about the accomplishments the Uchiha had made?

Senju Tobirama, you may be despicable, but the students you trained, even the truly loyal Shisui, had to be treated harshly.

If a child is not taught properly, it is the father's fault. If a student is not disciplined, it is the teacher's laziness.

As the teacher of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo, if their thoughts were not influenced by Tobirama, Kyōsuke would never have believed it.

Once again, Kyōsuke was merely using Tobirama's arrangements, applying the same conditions to the Senju clan.

If you wanted power, the Konoha Military Police Force was handed to you.

If you wanted status, the village carved out a vast area of clan land where no one was allowed to tread.

Why couldn't you just live peacefully?

Why did you have to stage a coup?

Just like the comments from some Senju supporters, I was simply taking normal precautions. There was no intentional targeting whatsoever.

How did this cause such great dissatisfaction?

"Sorry, but I cannot fulfill your last wish." Kyōsuke raised his free left hand and snapped his fingers lightly.

The next moment, the trembling survivors from the Senju clan collapsed to the ground, dead in an instant. Tobirama didn't even know how they had died.

"You... you're just a bastard."

"Indeed," Kyōsuke admitted without hesitation. "Go ahead, say everything you want to say."

Upon hearing this, Tobirama gave a bitter, twisted smile. His face, swollen and purple, forced out an ugly grin. "Go ahead. Do it."

"Very well, we'll part ways here, Tobirama."

"On your way to the afterlife, be sure to send my regards to Hashirama."

CRACK!!!

With a surge of power, Kyōsuke effortlessly crushed Tobirama's neck.

Far away, beyond the stars, the true Kyōsuke sat cross-legged on a barren planet, meditating.

Suddenly, his eyes snapped open, and a flash of lightning-like brilliance flickered across his gaze.

◇◆────────────────◆◇

Name: Uchiha Kyōsuke

Age: 47 years old (26 years since Konoha's founding)

Physical Strength: Six Paths (High-tier)

Mental Strength: Six Paths (High-tier)

Chakra Amount: Six Paths (High-tier)

◇◆────────────────◆◇

After completing the exchange of "Amenominaka," his mental strength had finally risen to the high tier of Six Paths.

From this point forward, Kyōsuke had no weaknesses. Below the Divine Fire level, he could confidently claim to be an invincible existence.

If the Six Paths Sage brothers came to challenge him and there was no way to escape, he was confident that he could destroy both of them at once.

At this point, he was in a position where it didn't matter who his enemies were.

"I didn't expect Tobirama to die so quickly at my hands," Kyōsuke mused, his voice carrying an undertone of contemplation.

"It seems that the clan extermination plan has already begun," he continued, a knowing look crossing his face as he assessed the situation.

With a faint smile, Kyōsuke quickly dismissed the thought from his mind, understanding that there were more pressing matters to address.

To him, the insignificant little Tobirama was no longer a concern. What truly mattered now was how to deal with the obstacles in the Shadow Star.

Those wretched individuals had the ability to draw upon the planet's power to launch their attacks. Even if Kyōsuke endured several more strikes, there was a genuine risk that he could fall.

Engaging in a direct confrontation would not be wise. If he were to carry out his plan of eradication, he would have to rely on methods beyond mere brute force.

At this moment, before him now stood several figures—human-like beings, motionless and lifeless, as though they were little more than corpses.

This was the Kyōsuke version of Pain's Six Paths, ready to take action.
