Chapter 191

"Why have you become like this? You shouldn't have become this way!" Kuchiki Senya took a deep breath, his tone complex.

"Heh, you don't understand—I'm a shinobi, and I must fight for the peace of the Shinobi World!" Tsuchikage Omoi said coldly: "You've broken the shinobi code, so you must pay a heavy price!"

"Hmph, since you chose to betray Konoha, even if I kill you, the Third Raikage won't say a word!"

"Tsukuyomi: Rinne Tensei Technique!"

Kuchiki Senya's face turned icy; memories flooded his mind—he saw many things, including the bitter hardships of his childhood, deepening his hatred for Tsuchikage Omoi and stirring a faint resentment toward Konoha.

But this resentment was quickly suppressed; Kuchiki Senya knew these were illusions—he was here for vengeance.

"Tsukuyomi: Mangekyō Sharingan!" The pupils of Kuchiki Senya's Sharingan revealed the pattern of the Mangekyō.

Under the power of the Mangekyō Sharingan, the surroundings instantly shifted into a dense jungle, its scenery beautiful and soothing to the soul.

"No good!" Tsuchikage Omoi's expression changed abruptly.

"Doton: Tsuchi Nagare no Kabe!" Tsuchikage Omoi hastily unleashed his ultimate technique.

The ground trembled; countless sands rose and coalesced into a massive wall, shielding him within.

"Bang!" Kuchiki Senya's Tsukuyomi skill shattered the Tsuchi Nagare no Kabe outright, then slammed violently into Tsuchikage Omoi's chest, shattering his ribs and sending him flying backward.

"Cough, cough, cough—I never expected it to be you!" Tsuchikage Omoi spat out several mouthfuls of blood, wiped the blood from his lips, and stared pale-faced at the young man before him.

"Yes, it's me!" Kuchiki Senya's expression returned to its usual state, yet his body still radiated terrifying killing intent.

"Heh, you're still as stubborn as ever—but then again, you've already fallen, corrupted by power, having forgotten your original purpose as a shinobi!" Tsuchikage Omoi's face showed sorrow.

"I have been blinded and corroded by power—but so what? I no longer wish to remain a shinobi!" Kuchiki Senya's face twisted with savagery.

"Hahaha, this is perfect—I've finally waited for you! I will destroy Konoha, destroy everything, destroy this filthy, evil nation."

Tsuchikage Omoi threw back his head and laughed wildly, then his body began slowly swelling.

"Self-destruction?" Kuchiki Senya's eyes sharply contracted, and he immediately turned and fled.

"Boom—!"

Tsuchikage Omoi's body erupted in waves of smoke, leveling everything within a hundred-meter radius.

"Huff, huff, huff!"

Kuchiki Senya now panted heavily; had he been even a moment slower, he might have perished in that self-destruction.

165, disciple of Jiraiya, Kuchiki Senya

"Disciple of Jiraiya, Kuchiki Senya?" Tsuchikage Omoi slowly rose from the ground, his eyes burning as he fixed them on Kuchiki Senya—he had lost all reason.

"But don't worry—I won't kill you. I will train you to become the next Hokage, because you're better than me, your talent surpasses mine!"

"Too bad—you've lost all right to become Hokage, for you've fallen!" Tsuchikage Omoi roared, then slammed his palm toward Kuchiki Senya's skull.

"Heh, then let me end your madness today!"

A flash of cold light flashed in Kuchiki Senya's eyes; he clenched his fist, and countless chakra gathered along his arm.

"Tsukuyomi: Tsukuyomi: Tree World Descent!" Kuchiki Senya roared, and instantly saplings of green sprouted above his head.

Each green sapling was ten meters thick, writhing and clawing as if ready to devour the world.

"Impossible?!" Tsuchikage Omoi felt the immense, far-reaching pressure and his face turned pale.

"Tsukuyomi: Moon Binding!" Kuchiki Senya's Sharingan vanished from his eyes, replaced by Nine-Tails Mode.

Endless darkness engulfed the area, and a terrifying pressure settled over the entire land.

"Ahh!!" Tsuchikage Omoi's face twisted in terror, sweat pouring from his body.

The moon was obscured by thick black clouds, leaving only a dim starlit sky to illuminate the earth.

Towering trees erupted from the ground, binding Tsuchikage Omoi tightly within one massive trunk.

"Tsukuyomi: Tsukuyomi!"

Kuchiki Senya's eyes narrowed slightly, glowing with dangerous light.

The subtlety of Tsukuyomi: Mangekyō is no less than Tsukuyomi: Mangekyō—if the target's strength is sufficient, it can easily immobilize a Jonin.

But this limitation has its own constraint: it demands strict requirements on the user's own strength.

Generally, during a minor stage, the number of times Tsukuyomi can be used is limited.

If in a major stage, using Tsukuyomi ten times will damage the user's soul, making it hard even to maintain oneself.

But even so, once Tsukuyomi is used, its negative effects are completely nullified, allowing another use of Tsukuyomi with even greater power.

"Tsukuyomi: Mangekyō¨．!"

A flash of lethal light passed through Kuchiki Senya's eyes; he immediately activated Tsukuyomi: Mangekyō, and countless vines erupted from the ground, swiftly wrapping around Tsuchikage Omoi's body.

Tsuchikage Omoi's face changed; he struggled desperately, yet found he could not break free from the vines' grip.

Then, he suddenly realized he could no longer move—he stood frozen in place.

"Heh, I already anticipated you'd use this trick!"

"Tsukuyomi: Moon Seal!"

Kuchiki Senya sneered as his hands rapidly formed seals, driving a series of sealing techniques into Tsuchikage Omoi's body.

"You bastard!" Tsuchikage Omoi raged.

"Heh, don't get excited!" Kuchiki Senya regarded Tsuchikage Omoi coolly: "Do you know my Master held you in high regard? Though your personality is stubborn, your strength is no small thing!"

Kuchiki Senya sneered, then lifted his right foot and kicked Tsuchikage Omoi's abdomen with full force.

"Spurt!" Tsuchikage Omoi spat a huge gout of blood, his eyes filled with shock and terror.

"Your power!" Tsuchikage Omoi struggled to swallow.

"Heh, only now do you realize? Too late!" Kuchiki Senya grinned.

"Tsukuyomi: Tree World Descent!"

Kuchiki Senya's eyes glowed with bloodlust; he clasped his hands together, then thrust them forward heavily.

"Boom!"

The entire forest shook as if struck by an earthquake, countless trees uprooted and formed a barrier of woodland, blocking enemies approaching from all directions.

"What on earth is this?" Tsuchikage Oonoki's pupils contracted violently, for he saw countless monsters crawling out from the tree trunks and charging toward him.

Tsuchikage Oonoki stared in disbelief—he had encountered the legendary monster legion, endless creatures bursting forth from the trees.

"Roar!"

The horde of monsters roared and furiously lunged at Tsuchikage Oonoki.

Tsuchikage Oonoki's face turned ashen; the weakest of these monsters possessed Shadow-level combat power, and many were even Pre-Shadow-level beings.

"Damn it, where the hell did these monsters come from? There can't possibly be this many here!" Tsuchikage Oonoki gritted his teeth and hardened his own decision.

Transit Group 371729-119

"Lightning Release: Thousand Birds!"

Tsuchikage Oonoki roared, and lightning surged over his body—dozens of Lei She slithered out from his skin.

In an instant, those Lei She transformed into countless lightning blades, slashing violently against the monsters' bodies.

In a flash, the monsters were wiped out, leaving only a few barely clinging to life.

"Heh! Is this your strongest power?" Kuchiki Senya watched Tsuchikage Oonoki trapped within the tree trunks with nowhere to escape, the mockery in his eyes growing stronger.

"Hmph!" Tsuchikage Oonoki swung his arm, endless tree roots shattered, and his figure darted swiftly away.

"Try to run?" Kuchiki Senya raised an eyebrow and extended his index finger—countless branches rapidly coalesced.

The next instant, Kuchiki Senya stabbed forward; the branches fused into a spear that pierced through Tsuchikage Oonoki's chest.

"Spurt!"

A muffled sound—Tsuchikage Oonoki's chest shattered instantly, his body impaled, collapsing to the ground, barely breathing, eyes wide open.

"Tsuchikage, killing you with my own hands this lifetime is worth it. I haven't killed anyone in a very, very long time—this is my compensation to you!"

Kuchiki Senya's eyes flickered with strange emotion; his right hand clenched tightly, and Tsuchikage Oonoki's (Li Haohao) body exploded instantly.

"Huff!"

Kuchiki Senya took a deep breath, then closed his eyes and rested for several minutes.

"What a nightmare—forced me to this point!" Kuchiki Senya muttered to himself.

His strength was not weak; he possessed formidable Yomi power, and in the Ninja Academy, he was regarded by all as a genius, hailed as a strong contender for the next Third Hokage.

But he was still too young, his foundation too shallow, and lacking in experience, causing his power to rise slowly.

Yet he remained a top candidate for the next Third Hokage, and he truly had that potential.

Unfortunately, Tsuchikage Oonoki sent assassins to hunt him down, even attempting to destroy Konoha.

If it had been any other matter, Kuchiki Senya might have backed down.

But if it concerned Konoha's safety and future, Kuchiki Senya would never compromise.
