Chapter 258: A waist cut brought by a

"Careful!"

Seeing Uchiha Uchiha Zhili approach the enraged Tailed Beast so recklessly, Senju Hashirama, standing on the side, was shocked and was about to step forward to suppress it, but was blocked by a large hand.

"Hashirama brother, don't be impatient."

Biting on a lollipop he didn't know where he got, Uchiha Gin rested his head on one hand and blocked Senju Hashirama, who was preparing to help, with the other.

His lifeless eyes showed no panic at all. On the contrary, he looked old and calm, raised his head to look at Uchiha Uchiha Zhili, who was staring at the Two-Tails, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his tone carried a hint of pride,

"Uchiha Zhili is my disciple~"

"Pfft! Just you, don't mislead your disciples!"

Senju Tobirama, who was standing with his arms crossed on the side, seized the opportunity to mock him first, but his scarlet eyes were fixed on the Two-Tails' movements, and the joints of his hands were tense until they turned white.

He knew deeply that as a clone, he could only exert less than one-tenth of his strength. If the scene really got out of control, he would take his sister and run away at the first opportunity.

"I... those tea leaves, just treat it as feeding a dog!"

Uchiha Gin felt his fists harden upon hearing this. He turned his face to look at Senju Tobirama, who was full of vigilance, and sighed that the other party was someone who took gifts but didn't do things.

"Human, prepare to turn into ashes!"

In the enraged Two-Tails' eyes, fatal light flickered. Deep blue flames continuously sprayed from its nostrils, and the flames in its mouth had reached a critical point, ready to erupt at any moment.

"Too untamed, is this what a wild cat is?"

Feeling the crisis about to descend, Uchiha Uchiha Zhili, who was targeted by the Two-Tails, had no waves on her face. Her cold eyes instead carried a hint of thought.

Just now she tried to touch Matatabi's fur. She thought the flames on the Tailed Beast were physical, but when she touched them at close range, there was no scorching heat she imagined. Instead, there was the feeling of soft fur. It seemed these terrifying flames were just the embodiment of chakra.

"Who are you calling a wild cat?"

Matatabi originally wanted to spray this tiny human at its feet to death, but didn't expect the other party not only not to be afraid, but to speak wildly and insult its beast dignity.

So the Two-Tails wasn't happy on the spot. It immediately closed its mouth, took back the flames it had been brewing for a long time, and then stretched out its sharp giant claws, preparing to use more cruel means to torture this annoying human.

"Go to hell, cat claw!"

Only seeing the Two-Tails arch its body, its two flaming tails swaying wantonly, and its sharp claws wrapped in ten thousand tons of force, grabbing towards Uchiha Uchiha Zhili, who was standing still.

"Whoosh!"

The sound of the cat claw breaking through the air made everyone present vibrate their eardrums. Senju Hashirama's Wood Clone frowned. He couldn't care about Uchiha Gin's obstruction, jumped up, and clapped his hands in the air, making a crisp sound.

"Snap!"

Purple chakra overflowed from his body. Even if he was just a Wood Clone, he could still suppress a Tailed Beast.

"Wood Release·Wood Dragon... uh?"

"BOOM!!!"

Just as the Wood Dragon released by Senju Hashirama poked its head out from the ground, his voice got stuck in his throat. After landing in confusion, his dull eyes were full of disbelief.

"This..."

Uchiha Gin, on the side, walked over, patted Senju Hashirama on the shoulder, and said with a smile,

"Look, I told you, Uchiha Zhili is a disciple I taught, how could she be bad~"

"But... how old is she?"

Swallowing his saliva, Senju Hashirama turned his head somewhat dryly and asked,

C or D?

"What, haven't you heard of a heroine coming from a young girl?"

Raising an eyebrow, Uchiha Gin revealed a constrained expression and asked rhetorically,

"Is that so? You Uchiha clan really have talents coming out in large numbers."

Raising his head, Senju Hashirama looked at the scene in front of him, with an inexplicable look in his black eyes, while Senju Tobirama, who followed behind him, frowned even more, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Meow! Don't come over!"

The Two-Tails, which was aggressive just now, now looked like a kitten being held by the neck. It struggled and retreated, but because its tail was already tightly grabbed by a cherry-pink giant hand, it couldn't resist and shouted in pain,

"Oh? Are you obedient now?"

Hearing this cold voice, the Two-Tails' heterochromatic eyes were full of horror. Looking at the towering cherry-pink giant in front of it, the Tailed Beast, unable to resist, chose to lie flat, letting Uchiha Uchiha Zhili grab it and knead it at will.

Phew~ petting a cat is so cool!

"Wow~ Uchiha Zhili sister's Susanoo is so beautiful~"

Even though she had seen it many times, Senju Itama still felt it was very stunning. Looking at the cherry-pink giant in front of her, wearing soft battle robes, with a tall and slender figure, and wide butterfly wings flapping behind her back, she still couldn't help but click her tongue in praise.

"Hmph! Flashy."

Uchiha Guang, standing beside her, hugged her chest with dissatisfaction, but the envy in her eyes couldn't be hidden no matter what.

As women, how could her Susanoo look so ugly?

"That guy Izuna's Susanoo is nothing more than this..."

Senju Tobirama, whose brows hadn't relaxed yet, recalled his rival and felt a burst of unease in his heart. Then he looked at Uchiha Gin's back, his eyes flickering with light,

"Not expecting the Uchiha clan to hide such power. If Big Brother were suddenly gone, wouldn't Konoha change its sky?"

"Little cat, look into my eyes."

After playing with the Two-Tails for a while, looking at the trembling Matatabi, Uchiha Zhili knew she couldn't continue playing like this. She straightened the cat's head, red light flared in her eyes, and a bewitching clover pattern emerged.

【Immerse yourself in the world of the Mangekyo Sharingan】

"MEOW!!!"

An unstoppable cold force invaded its brain. Matatabi immediately went dark before its eyes.

And everyone present only heard the Two-Tails let out a miserable howl. Then they looked in surprise at the blue big cat sitting upright in place. They didn't expect Uchiha Uchiha Zhili's genjutsu to be so amazing, controlling the Tailed Beast with just one look.

"Tsk."

Perceiving the deep, cold aura emanating from Uchiha Uchiha Zhili, Senju Tobirama's brows seemed to be locked, tightly twisted together, and never let go.

"Gin-sensei, mission perfectly completed~"

Uchiha Uchiha Zhili dissipated her Susanoo, landed on the head of the now-obedient Two-Tails, and stroked the cat's head while looking at Uchiha Gin below with a look of asking for credit,

"Hehe, my Uchiha Zhili is the best~"

For his disciple, Uchiha Gin never stinted on praise. After all, excellent children were praised by adults, and blind suppression and PUAs would only be counterproductive.

"How is it, Hashirama brother, is it stable?"

Turning his head, Uchiha Gin looked at Senju Hashirama, who had an inexplicable expression, and asked,

"The power of Mangekyo is indeed magical."

As an old rival of the Uchiha clan, it wasn't that Senju Hashirama hadn't seen the power of Mangekyo. He had fought against the Mangekyo of Uchiha Tajima and his son.

Mangekyo was just a bit troublesome for him, but for anyone other than him, the Mangekyo Sharingan could be fatal.

"Uchiha Zhili, can you continue? If not, don't force yourself~"

Seeing the Senju brothers speechless, Uchiha Gin raised his head and continued to ask,

"Uh... Gin-sensei, I can..."

Feeling the pupil power just consumed slowly recovering, Uchiha Uchiha Zhili raised a smile on her face, touched the blue pendant hanging around her neck, nodded, and indicated she could continue.

"Wait, let me try too!"

Just as Uchiha Uchiha Zhili was examining the other Tailed Beasts, Uchiha Guang, who had been waiting for a long time, pulled Uchiha Gin's arm and shouted,

"Hmm... Uchiha Zhili, you rest for a while, let Guang play~"

Seeing that he couldn't refuse his childhood sweetheart, Uchiha Gin had no choice but to let his disciple rest on the spot and let Uchiha Guang take the stage.

"Okay, Guang-senpai, good luck."

The girl responded obediently, then controlled the Two-Tails to move slowly out of the battlefield, and said to Uchiha Guang, who was eager to try, with a smile.

"Just some wild beasts, not worth worrying about."

Raising an eyebrow, Uchiha Guang said proudly, then opened her scarlet eyes and scanned the other Tailed Beasts, as if looking for her target.

"It's over, it's over! That human is looking at me!"

Three-Tails shrank its head in horror, its voice trembling. They had all seen the scene of the Two-Tails being handled by the giant just now. This unknown black-haired human could make the purple-haired human just now retreat three points, and must be an even more terrifying existence.

"Phew... Isobu, you give me some spirit, don't lose face!"

The Eight-Tails blew white air from its nose, looked at Uchiha Guang not far away, and incited,

"That's right, we all rolled out of knives and guns, let this human see your power!"

Seven-Tails Chomei also joined in the fun. As two Tailed Beasts with more tails, they didn't worry at all that they would be chosen in this round.

"Wuwuwu..."

Three-Tails was crying without tears. There was no lake nearby, and its power was greatly limited. It estimated that its result would be even more miserable than that guy Matatabi.

"Uchiha Guang..."

Looking at the confident Uchiha Guang, Senju Hashirama recalled the information about the other party. According to Uchiha Madara's description, this girl who looked very young might actually be about the same age as Uchiha Gin.

Not knowing how to address the other party, Senju Hashirama, after a simple brainstorming, said with a normal face,

"Uh... Big Sister Hikari, which one are you choosing, Three-Tails?"

"..."

The originally noisy scene fell into a shocking dead silence after Senju Hashirama finished speaking.

Uchiha Gin, with a sympathetic expression, looked at the confused Senju Hashirama and shook his head gently.

"Hashirama brother, how could you... sigh~ we'll talk in detail next time we meet."

Uchiha Gin, who originally wanted to give a hint, looked at the ghost-like figure behind Senju Hashirama and could only sigh deeply and say goodbye.

"Ha?"

Senju Hashirama, who didn't know what was going on, suddenly perceived danger descending. In shock, he quickly turned around and raised his leg to block, but it was too late.

"Snap!"

A huge cherry-red kitchen knife had already cut him in half at the waist. Looking down at his lower body that had turned into withered wood, Senju Hashirama revealed a bitter expression, gave a wink to his brother's clone, and then his upper body also turned into a section of withered wood and fell to the ground.

Clueless wooden man, remember to address me as Ane-ge next time!

"Big Brother!"

Although this Senju Hashirama was only a Wood Clone, his strength was not something ordinary people could match. However, such a clone was taken away with one knife, which was really unacceptable to Senju Tobirama. He immediately stared at the person who made the move, his scarlet eyes full of anger,

"You!"

"What about me? Don't look at him as a clone, even if the main body comes, I'll cut him too!"

The scarlet eyes glared back without any avoidance. The cold pupil power contained within made Senju Tobirama sweat profusely, and his brain also calmed down. Recalling the wink his brother's clone gave before disappearing, he could only choose to swallow his anger and continue to witness.

Uchiha Guang, with an unhappy face, had coldness emanating from her eyes, making everyone dare not speak, and even the Tailed Beasts on the side perceived this terrifying aura, and they were all afraid that they would bump into this human's hands.

"Isobu, your turtle shell is hard, you should be able to carry it, we believe in you!"

Swallowing his saliva, the Four-Tails comforted the Three-Tails, who was almost fainting in the cage next door.

As the Four-Tails, it just wanted Isobu to hold on a little longer, let that human vent her anger, so that when it was its turn, she could be lighter.

"Uh... what now? Hashirama brother is gone, the seal of this cage..."

Scratching his head, Uchiha Gin looked at the six cages still standing and said with some distress,

"No way, can only wait for Big Brother to send another clone."

Senju Tobirama, who had lost Senju Hashirama's support, was temporarily honest. His expression lacked the disdain from just now. He glanced obscurely at Uchiha Guang, who was in a fit of anger, and shook his head at Uchiha Gin, indicating that he was powerless about his brother's Wood Release.

"Hmph! Waste of time."

Hearing the conversation between the two, Uchiha Guang, full of anger, raised her head and scanned the trembling Tailed Beasts, a flash of violence in her eyes. Her hands were very itchy now, and she just wanted to hammer these guys.

"Wait, what do you want to do?"

Senju Tobirama, who was waiting for his brother, saw Uchiha Guang flying towards the wooden cage and looked puzzled, so he questioned,

Uchiha Guang didn't pay attention to Senju Tobirama's words and stood in front of the strongest Eight-Tails.

"Ha? Why did this human come to me?"

Gyuki, who didn't think he would be beaten early, looked at Uchiha Guang who landed in front of him and said with some shrinking,

Only seeing Uchiha Guang raise her head, red light flashed in her eyes, and a bewitching pattern jumped out, with three swallow-shaped darts slowly rotating in it,

"Amaterasu, break for me!"

With the overflow of pupil power, everyone looked in surprise at the black flames burning on the huge wooden cage, and retreated a few steps one after another,

"Actually able to release Amaterasu with such a terrifying range, this woman's strength is indeed not below Uchiha Madara."

Senju Tobirama looked at the raging Amaterasu with a heavy face. Besides shock, there was only worry in his heart.

Before visiting Uchiha Gin, Senju Tobirama had had a brief confrontation with Uchiha Guang, and he had a rough understanding of the other party's strength. However, after witnessing her terrifying pupil technique, he became even more firm in his thoughts.

The Uchiha clan didn't just have one Uchiha Madara, but the Senju clan only had one Senju Hashirama!

"Ah, ah, ah~ going to be made into octopus balls!"

Because Uchiha Guang didn't care about the Eight-Tails inside when releasing Amaterasu, Gyuki was now covered in black flames. With the scorching high temperature, its huge body actually emitted bursts of tempting fragrance,

"Gulp... so fragrant!"

Senju Itama, who hadn't eaten lunch yet, couldn't help but swallow her saliva after smelling the fragrance of roasted seafood and steak in the air. Her eyes glowing, she looked at the Eight-Tails struggling in the cage, and tears of unsuccessfulness flowed from the corners

"There's actually a scent. So, are Tailed Beasts truly creatures with physical bodies?"

Uchiha Zhili, sitting cross-legged on top of Matatabi's head, wrinkled her nose, then raised her delicate eyebrows and put forward her own hypothesis.

"Boom—"

Amaterasu, as an advanced version of the compassionate ninjutsu Great Fireball Technique, had always been known for burning anyone it touched to death. However, the wooden cages were not human. Under the onslaught of the flames, the wooden cages, being creations of Wood Release, ultimately could not bear the heavy burden and vanished with the wind.

Eight-Tails: Good news, I'm free.

Bad news, I'm almost cooked.

"Ahhh~ I'm dying, I'm dying!"

Gyuki, having regained his freedom, rolled on the ground while covered in flames. The black flames stuck everywhere, and the lush forest was instantly engulfed in a great fire, while the surrounding air also carried a hint of scorching heat.

"Xiao Guang!"

Seeing the situation escalating, Uchiha Gin had to speak up to remind her; if Amaterasu were allowed to spread, the nearby Leaf Village would also be affected.

"Whew~ Sorry, Gin, I got a bit carried away."

Upon hearing Uchiha Gin's voice, the look of cruelty in Uchiha Guang's eyes slowly faded. She turned her head and said with a slightly flushed face.

Looking back at the Eight-Tails wailing in pain, the pattern in Uchiha Guang's eyes shifted. Everyone was then surprised to find that the Amaterasu flames, which had been spreading everywhere, were actually retracting rapidly.

Once all the flames gathered into a ball, Uchiha Guang narrowed her eyes, and those man-eating black flames vanished into thin air.

【Kagutsuchi】

Fortunately, one of the young girl's ocular techniques was Kagutsuchi, which could manipulate Amaterasu; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable, and Uchiha Gin would have had to step in to clean up the mess.

"Huff, huff, huff~ I surrender! I surrender!"

The Eight-Tails, whose body had been burned beyond recognition, couldn't even move. His giant ox eyes were filled with sorrow. He opened his big mouth and knelt down at the fastest speed of his life to beg for mercy.

Next time, if there is a next time, he would definitely choose to sever his tail and escape the moment he sees this kind of black flame.

He didn't want to experience the feeling of being a living octopus ball ever again.

"Oh? Since that's the case..."

Uchiha Guang, who had taken down the Eight-Tails with just one Amaterasu without much effort, pursed her lips with some regret. She then flew down and landed on Gyuki's nose, staring down at his ox eyes, which were filled with fear, and glared with her beautiful eyes.

Eight-Tails, out!

After being controlled by Uchiha Guang, the wounds all over the Eight-Tails' body began to heal rapidly. In just a short while, his hideous burns had completely recovered as if they had never existed.

"Gin, can I continue?"

Standing on top of the Eight-Tails' head, Uchiha Guang's eyes flickered slightly. The battle just now hadn't satisfied her; these behemoths simply couldn't satisfy her desire for combat.

Compared to that white-haired woman, these guys were simply pathetically weak.

Gritting her teeth, Uchiha Guang recalled her past crushing defeat once again. The red light in her eyes became even more piercing, causing Senju Tobirama, who was about to speak, to immediately shut his sharp-tongued little mouth.

"Continue then."

Looking up at the sky, Uchiha Gin nodded. After all, they still had to get home for dinner before sunset.

"Mr. Gin, what about me?"

Uchiha Uchiha Zhili, who had been waiting for a long time on the side, stood up from the cat's head with a look of eagerness in her eyes.

"Little Uchiha Zhili, just do your best, don't force yourself~"

Compared to Uchiha Guang's Eternal Mangekyō, Uchiha Uchiha Zhili currently only possessed a simple Mangekyō. Uchiha Gin smiled and encouraged her.

Even though she was wearing the Dragon's Claw, which could restore vitality, and the consumed ocular power could be replenished, there was ultimately a tiny bit of irreversible damage.

The scene that followed was somewhat unbearable to watch.

The remaining Tailed Beasts looked at the cages that had once imprisoned them, praying from the bottom of their hearts for them to hold firm. However, things went against their wishes. Under the sweep of Uchiha Guang's Amaterasu, those wooden cages vanished into ashes in an instant. The Tailed Beasts, covered in flames, scattered and fled in all directions, attempting to escape.

The flying Chomei gritted his teeth and put all his strength into flapping the wings on his tail. Seeing the blue sky getting closer and closer, he couldn't help but feel smug.

Hmph~ Being able to fly means you can do whatever you want!

"Where do you think you're going? Big bug."

Chomei, who was flying vigorously, suddenly heard a cold voice in his ear. He was so scared that he flapped his wings at high speed, and his tail was almost sparking.

But when he saw the cherry-pink butterfly wings covering his head, Chomei couldn't hold it together anymore and revealed a look of despair.

As Uchiha Uchiha Zhili controlled her Susanoo and swung the short blade with electric light in her hand, the Seven-Tails, suddenly subjected to electric therapy, turned into charcoal all over, then opened his mouth to spit out thick smoke and began a free fall.

"How about that? Our movements were quite efficient, right~"

Watching the two girls' performance, which was like chopping melons and vegetables, Uchiha Gin smiled and asked Senju Tobirama, who was standing beside him, dumbfounded.

"Ah, this... too..."

Senju Tobirama, when asked, could no longer describe his current mood with the word "shocked." Looking at the smiling Uchiha Gin, he stammered for a long time but ultimately couldn't say a word.

"Brother Hashirama, why haven't you come over yet? We're almost done~"

Watching the subjugation battle nearing its end, Uchiha Gin rolled his eyes and deliberately asked Senju Tobirama beside him.

"No need. I'll go notify my big brother right now; he doesn't need to come."

Senju Tobirama, with a complex expression, took one last look at the heated battlefield. The wailing screams of the Tailed Beasts made his mood become very heavy, and he no longer had the heart to bicker with Uchiha Gin. He waved his hand and directly dispelled his shadow clone.

"Finally gone!"

After waiting for so long, Senju Tobirama had finally returned to report. Uchiha Gin let out a long sigh, turned his head to look at Senju Itama, whose eyes were shining, and urged impatiently.

"Quick, quick, quick! Bring the Amber Purifying Pot over to me, I'm about to start harvesting!"
