Chapter 187 : Susanoo!
Time flies.
The sun set and then rose again, and sunlight once more blanketed the earth.
A day and a night had passed, but the battle between Uchiha Yuzuru and Minato Namikaze still hadn't stopped.
The Konoha Ninja finally realized a truth.
They were nothing but clowns!
They were trying to use Human Wave Tactics to exhaust a monster who was still full of vigor after fighting intensely for a day and a night... No wonder Uchiha Yuzuru looked at them with such mockery; their so-called plan was just a joke in his eyes.
If Minato Namikaze hadn't become a Perfect Jinchuriki, even if they had tens of thousands of people, they probably wouldn't be able to wear him down, right?
Therefore... Lord Minato, you must win!
----

Boom!
After another clash of fists, Minato Namikaze's figure flashed and disappeared from the spot.
When he reappeared, he was already in a small alley a hundred meters away.
His brow furrowed deeply: "Nine-Tailed, is there any way to end this quickly?"
Uchiha Yuzuru fights without any restraint; if they can't decide the victor quickly, the longer the battle drags on, the more severe the Village's losses will be.
However, his attacks can hardly inflict effective damage on Uchiha Yuzuru, who possesses the ability to phase while in Lightning Release Chakra Mode.
"If you were proficient in Sage Art, you might have a chance, but unfortunately, you're not."
"Without my Chakra, you might have to say goodbye to this world if he so much as touches you."
Minato Namikaze couldn't help but fall silent.
Uchiha Yuzuru possesses the ability to phase himself, making it difficult for Minato to distinguish whether the opponent's movements are feints or genuine attacks during high-speed combat.
During their battle, he had been knocked flying by Uchiha Yuzuru multiple times.
Just as the Nine-Tailed said, if it weren't for the Nine-Tailed's Chakra protecting him and its healing power treating his wounds, he might have died long ago.
"Is that guy really part of the Uchiha Clan? His physical strength seems unreasonably high."
He has been consistently going head-to-head with Minato Namikaze, who possesses Tailed Beast Chakra, and still managing to gain the upper hand.
Even the Uchiha Madara of the past couldn't achieve this level relying only on his own body, could he?
Hearing the Nine-Tailed's question, Minato Namikaze shook his head: "I remember when we were at the Ninja Academy, Yuzuru didn't show anything particularly surprising regarding physical aptitude."
"That's strange..."
Minato Namikaze's figure suddenly vanished, and immediately afterward, Uchiha Yuzuru kicked the spot where he had been hiding into dust.
"How exhilarating. It's been a long time since I've enjoyed myself this much."
"Minato, stop constantly trying to run away."
Uchiha Yuzuru's face was filled with excitement, and his innate combat instincts had been fully aroused.
He possesses the Uzumaki Sage Body, Mangekyo Sharingan, Night Moon Bloodline, Chinoike Bloodline... whether it's Chakra or physical strength, he is already beyond comparison with ordinary people.
The Third Raikage might be able to contend with him in terms of physical strength, but the other party's speed is too slow.
Therefore, Uchiha Yuzuru hadn't fought at such a high intensity for a long time.
In this regard, Minato Namikaze really is a decent opponent.
It's just that the opponent doesn't seem to want to continue fighting him, instead using the Flying Thunder God to constantly hide.
"He must be thinking of a way to defeat me."
Uchiha Yuzuru saw through Minato Namikaze's thoughts and showed a cold smile.
If you won't fight me, I'll go fight others.
Uchiha Yuzuru gave up on the idea of continuing to chase Minato Namikaze and immediately activated Susanoo.
Blessed by terrifying Ocular Power, a two-hundred-meter-tall Susanoo materialized out of thin air in Konoha.
Its pitch-black armor was chilling under the sunlight, looking like a Demon God governing death in Hell descending upon the mortal world.
As Susanoo took a step, the ground began to tremble incessantly, followed by a flash of black light.
The terrifying Saber Qi directly split the distant Hokage Rock in half, leaving a bottomless sword mark on the cliff face.
The Konoha Ninja looked up at Susanoo in horror, and despair lingered in everyone's hearts.
"Are you kidding me? After fighting for a day and a night, you're telling me he can still use this kind of power?"
"Where exactly is this guy's limit? If I'm going to die, at least let me die knowing."
"In the face of this power, do our self-important tactics, efforts, and sacrifices... really matter?"
Many people even smiled bitterly, dropped the weapons in their hands, and knelt directly on the ground.
It wasn't just the ordinary Ninja; even Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was hidden in the shadows, couldn't help but gasp.
"How does that guy's eye still possess so much Ocular Power?!"
"After so many years of intense fighting, he should have gone blind long ago."
"Could it be that he already possesses the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, which prevents blindness?!"
As soon as this thought appeared, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately shook it out of his mind.
That is absolutely impossible!
Just as he was having wild thoughts, Minato Namikaze appeared beside him.
"Sandaime-sama, I want to lure Uchiha Yuzuru outside the Village. Could you go out first and help me?"
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen's old face flushed: "I understand."
"Summoning Technique: Enma!"
After Enma appeared, he immediately saw the two-hundred-meter-tall Susanoo.
It swallowed hard and said somewhat uncertainly, "Hiruzen, your opponent this time..."
"That's right, it's that Demon God Statue."
You really think highly of me.
Enma's hanging heart finally died.
He knew it; the monkey never lets him fight low-level battles.
"Then I'll leave it to you."
After Minato Namikaze finished speaking, his figure vanished once more.
Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't keep hiding either. He had Enma transform into the adamantine staff and rushed outside.
"It's Lord Third Hokage! We're saved!"
"Everyone cheer up! The Sandaime is the strongest Hokage of all time; he will definitely defeat Uchiha Yuzuru."
"The battle isn't over yet; we can't lose our fighting spirit like this."
Seeing the hopeful looks in the eyes of the surrounding Ninja, Sarutobi Hiruzen found himself in a difficult spot.
Back when he was bragging about himself, he never imagined someone would charge into Konoha and massacre people, forcing him to take action... However, his reputation was what he valued most, so naturally, he couldn't show fear now.
He immediately said in a deep voice: "Where the leaves dance, the fire burns bright."
"The will of fire will not be extinguished, and we cannot give up like this."
"Although my physical condition is currently severe, I must offer my last ounce of strength for the Village."
Sarutobi Hiruzen first gave himself an excuse, then raised the adamantine staff and charged out: "adamantine staff, lengthen!"
Uchiha Yuzuru only felt a blur before his eyes as a thick staff stabbed into his body.
