Chapter 528: Grudge of the Dead Part-2

Chapter 528: Grudge of the Dead Part-2

As opposed to Fugaku, Akira, and Kagami, are having an easier time on the battlefield.

Unlike Fugaku's opponents, who are mostly the experienced elders of the clans; their opponents lack experience.

Also, both Akira's and Yagami's Mangekyo abilities are a perfect counter to the situation.

Swoosh

Occasionally, a veiled transparent figure with a scythe will appear behind Akira. Every time, the veiled Shinigami's scythe hits a weakened Edo body, it will harvest their soul and seal it to another dimension; thus dispelling the Edo Tensei.

Also, the veiled Shinigami is immune to physical and ninjutsu attacks. Akira battles with these Edo soldiers. After sufficiently exhausting them, the veiled Shinigami will deal the fatal blow and seal them away.

Over the past few years, his control over his Mangekyo ability has improved vastly.

Initially, he could only summon this Shinigami for only thirty seconds and even then it would drain all his chakra. However, after Izuna's suggestion and his training; he can summon the Shinigami for a prolonged duration.

Even then, he found a method to maximize the efficiency. The Shinigami's attacks have a certain death effect on weakened enemies. And much so against enemies with no actual body. Also, the scythe of Shinigami has a certain attribute that allows it to cut through almost any substance; be it any barrier, metal, or ninjutsu? The scythe can even cut through the Amaterasu flames, much to Izuna's surprise. After much testing, he concluded that this Shinigami is a unique being, and the scythe is a powerful artifact.

However, this ability is also quite chakra-taxing. So, Izuna and Akira found a way around it. Akira will summon the Shinigami for a few seconds to land a finishing blow and then immediately desummon him to preserve the chakra.

Also, other than the Shinigami, Akira is also able to wield the Death Scythe in battle. Though, it's not as effective as the Shinigami.

Akira extends his hand and the veiled Shinigami passes the Scythe to him.

Swish swish

He wields the scythe and cleaves several white zetsu around him in half. Akira continues to battle and seal the elite Edo members of the Uchiha clan.

On Yagami's side, one of his Mangekyo abilities allows him to manipulate the body of any shinobi in front of him like a marionette for a while. This ability is even able to rewrite the control of Edo Tensei for a little while. Though this ability is quite chakra taxing.

The Edo elders frown after noticing Akira and Yagami's Mangekyo Sharingans. Rage slowly clouds their senses.

"The entire Konoha would be ours if you people didn't hide your abilities."

Shoom Shoom

Several kunai, shurikens, swords, blades, and other weapons fly out of the hands of shinobis in the Elder's vicinity. A white seal appears on the blades as the elder controls them to attack Fugaku, Akira, and Yagami at the same time.

"Amaterasu!"

Black flames flicker in Fugaku's vision. The flames burn through a major portion of the weapons. However, more weapons fill their position.

Ding ding

A red skeletal ribcage surrounds Fugaku and blocks the relentless attacks of weapons. Similar, deep blue and cyan skeletal rib cages encase Akira's and Yagami's bodies and block the attacks.

"Susanoo!"

The eyes of the Edo elder narrow as he recognizes the technique.

Shiing

Blood leaks from both of his eyes as he uses the ability of his left eye.

"Futsunushi-no-Mikoto,"

BOOM

A powerful explosion shrouds the battlefield as Fukashi's body falls into Itami's embrace.

"Itami, destroy my eyes to prevent them from falling into the enemy's hands."

With these words, Fukashi breathes his last.

Shoom

The three deep red chakra blades fly toward the Uchiha trio at an incredible speed.

Bang

The blades slam into their Susanoo and instantly several cracks appear on the ribcage of the Susanoo.

The expression of the trio tenses up. A feeling of overwhelming danger clutches their heart. They clench their teeth and infuse every last reserve of their chakra into their Susanoo to transform it into the next stage.

Crack crack

However, their efforts are to no avail. The powerful corrosive property of the blade slowly destroys their Susanoo and closes up on them.

"Are we going to die here?"

Yagami, Fugaku, and Akira glance at each other.

"Even if it's so, we won't go out without a battle."

Haah

The three of them rile up their chakra. The bracelet on each of their blade emits a faint light and strengthens their Susanoo.

The deep red chakra blade meets stronger resistance from the trio as their will to fight pushes them past their limit.

Their Susanoo, which was slowly crumbling into fragments, suddenly gain an additional source of chakra and evolve further into a full-body Tengu Susanoo.

After losing most of its energy, the dark red chakra weapons disperse into motes of light. The powerful defenses of a full-body Susanoo are strong enough to withstand the force of a weak divine technique.

Phew

The Uchiha trio heaves a sigh of relief. Their Susanoo disperses as they don't have an iota of chakra in their body.

Whoosh

Suddenly, a figure flickers in front of them.

"Leave the rest to me!"

The trio closes their eyes after glancing at the assuring back.
