technique?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No wonder the old man fears the Uchiha so much.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But thank goodness!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Before I came, the Toad Sage gave me a Sage Seal.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiraiya’s scalp prickled, his face filled with terror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He never imagined that just one glance from Uchiha Jin would cause his body to crumble piece by piece.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wind-up, no time to prepare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly pulled the Sage Seal from his chest and slapped it directly onto his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body, already crumbling, was forcibly stabilized by a milky-white energy, which then fully repaired him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How is this possible?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just a single seal?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uchiha Jin let out a startled cry, his eyes filled with shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Mangekyo technique Susanoo had never before been forcibly interrupted—no matter how much ocular power he poured in, he could not sustain it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The traveler's memory suddenly reminded him: in the original manga or a movie, something similar had appeared—called the Sage Seal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Toad Mountain truly is formidable!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He ceased outputting ocular power, his gaze fixed on Jiraiya, waiting for the Sage Seal’s effect to end—then he would use Susanoo again without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Jiraiya is too strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no idea how many hidden cards Jiraiya still held, backed by Toad Mountain and Hagoromo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t waste time—he had to kill him the moment an opportunity arose!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unfortunately…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiraiya had clearly sensed Uchiha Jin’s intent, and while the Sage Seal’s effect still lingered and he could begin refining chakra, his hands were already frantically forming hand seals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After sixty-three seals, Jiraiya brought his palms together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sage Technique!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time, without guidance from either Toad Sage, he truly activated his Sage Mode on his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pulled out a flask filled with essence of toad oil, given to him by the Toad Sage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“All the accumulated essence of Toad Mountain over a thousand years amounts to only this one flask.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The trust placed in me by the Toad Sage and Hagoromo Sage—I would rather die than let them down.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uchiha Jin, I will stop Itachi!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After muttering these words, Jiraiya drank it all down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He began frantically refining Sage chakra, even feeling a fleeting illusion of invincibility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterwards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hands formed seals again, spending two full minutes to complete one hundred twenty-nine seals—then, the instant the Sage Seal’s effect faded, his eyes blazed with madness as he roared:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Demon God Law—Descend!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Screaming!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a roar audible to all, the Death God—previously summonable only by Shinigami Shōjō—appeared before everyone in full form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And more importantly, it was not a phantom summoned by Shinigami Shōjō, but a solid, physical Death God!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Si\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiraiya formed only one seal and immediately took full control of the Death God, who then swiftly drew the dagger from its mouth and lunged at Uchiha Jin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uchiha Jin: “...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face was pale with terror, his scalp prickling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was truly stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew the original manga couldn’t show everything, and that this world held many hidden secrets—but seeing it firsthand still shocked him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the original, the Death God was merely a soul-sealing technique with weak effects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t expected Toad Mountain or Hagoromo had actually found a way to control it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No other option—he had to endure it by force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“All of Itachi, listen!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kill Jiraiya—everyone except Itachi!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll handle this Death God myself; Itachi, use Amaterasu to burn it; Fugaku, use Tsukuyomi to slow Jiraiya down—slower, the better!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Move, now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uchiha Jin immediately activated Susanoo, attempting to force the Death God to crumble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest—it worked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the effect was extremely limited; this Death God seemed to originate from another dimension—while his ocular technique could still damage it, it required dozens of times the normal ocular power and yielded only one-tenth the usual effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as long as it worked, that was enough!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Uchiha Jin now possessed the Eternal Mangekyo—so long as it had any effect, he could grind the Death God down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uchiha Itachi did not hesitate—he immediately activated his Mangekyo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As blood trickled from his eyes, roaring black flames of Amaterasu engulfed the Death God, causing it to shriek in agony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fugaku also moved!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his Mangekyo technique activated, Jiraiya’s speed slowed drastically, as if moving in slow motion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, on the other side:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hashirama Senju, Tobirama Senju, Kakashi Hatake…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shisui, Kakashi, Orochimaru…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether reincarnated masters or Konoha’s new generation, all sensed the urgency and launched a desperate assault on Jiraiya.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wood Release roared and coiled, wrapping around Jiraiya.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tobirama’s Water Release—Heavenly Weeping—severed Jiraiya at the waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kakashi Hatake’s White Fang blade flashed like a silver lightning bolt, decapitating Jiraiya.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kakashi’s Lightning Cutter pierced straight through Jiraiya’s chest!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone’s Fire Release reduced Jiraiya to charred ash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In short…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiraiya was dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He may have had other powerful techniques from Toad Mountain and Hagoromo—but Uchiha Jin and the others clearly gave him no chance to use them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His death seemed sudden, but it was the result of meticulous planning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the ninja world—even as a Ōtsutsuki, physical durability remained pitifully weak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A power from the One Piece world might endure longer, but ninja were all fragile shells.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>High offensive power, but frail bodies!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, on the other side:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Jiraiya’s death, the Death God before Uchiha Jin began to fade amid shrieks, finally vanishing from this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Finally… dead!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That Jiraiya was terrifying—but why was he so strong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s unbelievable!”\u003C\u002Fp>",920,"2026-06-20T16:36:29.902Z",1,"Qwen3-Next
