Chapter 109: Chapter 108 » A Three-Day and Three-Night Battle! The Destruction of Kumogakure!
T/N: Sorry the delay, I really tought I had left the chapter programmed to post. Normal schedule today too.
❆❆❆
The terrifying force of spatial collapse crushed the remaining Uchiha clan members in an instant!
The Susanoo on their bodies had already shattered and vanished at the moment of spatial collapse. Under Yusuke's control, his Mangekyō Sharingan floated before him.
Yugo — Fusion!
He instantly absorbed this pair of Mangekyō Sharingan into his body, his ocular power receiving another exponential boost!
In fact, it surpassed even the ocular power provided by those Uchiha clan members he had just fused with {the false ones}! Indeed, only the authentic Mangekyō Sharingan deserves its name!
With that matter settled, he returned to the battlefield — no longer as a Almighty God, but as a Ninja God. The one in in the middle of the battle!
Amid the chaos, ninjas from all sides assaulted him, hoping to kill him in hand-to-hand combat. But to their misfortune, Yusuke was not only a master of Ninjutsu but also highly advanced in Taijutsu!
Dodging a fire explosion, Yusuke suddenly whirled, throwing a punch towards a suicide squad. A white bubble appeared before his fist, causing everyone to tremble in fear.
Vibration Release: Shingen no Ichigeki — Hypocenter Attack!
His devastating punch sent waves of tremors exploding through his enemies' bodies, carving a trench of death and blood. But soon, this void filled with more battles, the clash of metal and cries of death echoing across the battlefield.
Suddenly, a group of Kumogakure ninjas encircled Yusuke and began forming hand seals. Lightning energy crackled through the air, heralding an immense attack.
As the jutsu built up power, other ninjas within the circle frantically tried to escape. These supposed allies realized the Kumo ninjas were willing to sacrifice them along with their target.
Before the combined technique could be unleashed, Yusuke's cold voice cut through the chaos:
"Don't play with fire when you can't contain the blaze."
Lightning Release: Raijo Rikka — Lightning Purifying the Land!
Six orbs of black clouds, pulsing with electrical energy, materialized around him. Thunder boomed across the battlefield, accompanied by the agonized screams of electrocuted ninjas.
A massive pillar of energy shot skyward, and when it dissipated, all the Kumo ninjas surrounding Yusuke lay dead.
In this moment, he appeared as the very incarnation of a deity, wielding godlike powers with effortless grace.
The sight of him effortlessly slaughtering hundreds of ninjas not only struck terror into the hearts of the Kumogakure alliance but also left the Kiri ninjas in awe.
Every face reflected intense reverence. Yusuke Kamizuki had truly become the God of Kirigakure!
The massacre raged on for thirty relentless minutes.
Now, nearly a thousand ninja found themselves trapped on a desolate plain. Abject fear gripped them as they stood surrounded by the corpses of their fallen comrades. Ninjas from the Mist Village blocked every escape route.
High above this grim scene, Yusuke hovered, his cold gaze fixed upon the thousand terrified ninja below.
"Lord Yusuke! Please, spare me! I'll renounce my identity as a Kumo ninja and join the Mist Village!"
"Don't kill me..."
"Lord Yusuke! Me too! I'll give up my identity as a Cloud ninja! From now on, I'm a Kiri ninja! I'll sacrifice everything for Kirigakure!"
"Me too..."
"..."
Panic spread like wildfire among the remaining ninja. As soon as one took the lead, others followed suit.
All the ninja knelt before Yusuke, begging for mercy. In the face of death, concerns about village loyalty or personal dignity vanished — survival was paramount.
"How interesting..." Yusuke's voice drifted faintly.
His words kindled a glimmer of hope in the ninja. He hadn't outright rejected them. Could there still be a chance? Living — no matter the cost — was all that mattered now.
If they were to die at the hands of an equal opponent, it wouldn't feel this desperate. But Yusuke's power far exceeded their imagination. This was truly godlike might!
"Lord Yusuke!"
"Lord Yusuke!!"
"..."
The crowd's frantic shouts echoed across the battlefield, all clinging to the hope of survival.
"You all! Warriors of my Cloud Village! How dare you kneel before the enemy! How can you beg for mercy?!" A roared in anguish upon witnessing this scene, "Stand up! I command you to stand!"
Among the remaining ninja, the Kumo shinobi, seeing their Raikage reduced to a wreck, were filled with conflicting emotions.
Yet, no one dared speak up. If even the powerful Raikage was no match for Yusuke, what chance did they stand?
"I'm afraid that won't be possible." Yusuke's voice rolled out, drawing the attention of all surviving Hidden Cloud ninja, "You seem to have forgotten — this is war, not a playground."
Forgiveness? Surrender? These aren't options after threatening the lives of those one cherish.
You either follow through on your threats or die trying. Don't strike a man without expecting retaliation. Don't threaten a woman's children without anticipating vengeance.
Honor, family, and emotions aren't easily mended with mere apologies.
Moreover, Yusuke had another reason for refusing to let these ninjas escape — one that was quite evident upon reflection.
Every ninja in these allied forces knew their mission, its extent, and its limits, all under the Raikage's command. There were no cowards here, nor any who'd hesitate to assassinate even little kids if ordered.
Their current kneeling meant nothing; the moment Yusuke turned his back, they'd surely betray him. They were enemies with conflicting ideals.
No logic could redeem them. Just as there'd be no redemption for Yusuke's people if roles were reversed.
Mercy for the enemy is cruelty to oneself.
"No! Lord Yusuke, spare me! I swear I'm not here by choice!"
"Lord Yusuke, I have family and children waiting for me at home! Don't do this!"
"Me too! I have five children and my wife is pregnant! Spare me so I can return home!"
"Please, spare me!"
Like a cacophony of desperate pleas, the ninjas below said anything to extract a shred of emotion from Yusuke's heart and gain forgiveness.
This was precisely why he detached his emotions on the battlefield. While those below used every trick to stay alive, a sentimental fool would believe and free them all.
"What of your comrades who've already fallen? What of mine you sought to kill? Didn't they have families too?" Yusuke's voice, though calm, resonated across the battlefield, reaching even the Kiri ninjas' ears.
These three questions, though simple, silenced the ninjas below like a bucket of cold water.
After all their comrades had fallen, only now did they surrender? If everything they claimed was so important, they wouldn't have been here in the first place.
"In the face of death, face your fate with honor and dignity." Yusuke said as he slowly landed before the ninjas. His gaze held the least trace of emotion since his arrival, "The most I can offer you is a painless death."
Silence blanketed the battlefield as something unexpected unfolded.
One of the ninjas closest to Yusuke — so near to killing him, yet so far — looked around. Seeing rivers of blood and piles of his fallen brothers, he shed a tear — an act unbecoming of an Elite Jonin.
He then knelt on the ground.
"Then so be it. At least I'll join my brothers in the afterlife."
His final words resonated with everyone present.
And where one led, others followed.
"Even in death, I'll watch over my children from above!"
"Damn… who'll feed my dog now?"
"My beautiful Aya... Our son will know his father died with dignity."
Ninja after ninja knelt before Yusuke. Under the Raikage's incredulous gaze, they bowed their heads, awaiting death. Their laments varied, but in their final moments, they clung to what mattered most.
'Requiescat in pace...'
Yusuke raised his hand towards the ninjas, then lifted it slightly.
Ice Release: Glacial Tomb — Reduction!
In an instant, a thousand ice spears erupted from the ground, piercing the hearts of all before him. A freezing cold enveloped them as these men and women transformed into fragile, delicate ice statues.
They soon crumbled to dust. Quick and painless.
All the Kirigakure ninjas witnessing the scene closed their eyes briefly — not to deny the vision, but to honor the dignity shown in the face of death.
And with that, the great battle came to an end. The ten thousand ninja allied forces of Kumogakure lay dead.
Only the Fourth Raikage remained as a lone commander.
[ Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 700,000 Villain Points! ]
In just half a day, Yusuke had directly annihilated an allied force of ten thousand ninja! This unprecedented speed created a new legend!
The power of a god was about to resound throughout the entire ninja world!
Yusuke slowly flew towards the Fourth Raikage, his gaze meeting the other's eyes filled with extreme anger.
"I hope you're pleased with the destruction you've brought upon your people." He said, his expression remaining empty, "Your Kumogakure still has about fifteen thousand ninja in its defensive forces. Tell me, do you think it was worth it now? Shitty leader."
"You!" A, upon hearing this, was instantly filled with rage. "You demon from hell!"
Ignoring the human wreck completely, Yusuke shouted loudly:
"All Kiri ninjas, hear my command! Advance on Kumogakure! In three days, I will erase the Cloud Village from the ninja world map!" His order rang out like an iron law!
Every single ninja from Kirigakure vowed to obey it to the death!
Subsequently, the main force began to advance steadily towards Kumo!
❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆
Half a day later, the army arrived at the gates of Kumogakure.
Killer B stood ready with fifteen thousand ninja — from elite jonin to genin — all prepared to defend their village.
This was the moment of truth for Kumogakure. If they couldn't withstand Kirigakure's attack, the Cloud Village would cease to exist.
As night fell, ten thousand reinforcements from Kiri joined the fray, along with the three thousand Cursed Seal Ninja Troops. The battle to annihilate the village was about to begin.
Under the darkening sky, Yusuke's eyes glowed crimson as heat vision energy gathered to its limit. A scarlet beam of light tore through the air, splitting the sky and rending the earth — a battle cry for the village's destruction!
The war to destroy Kumogakure had begun in earnest!
From the lowest genin to the highest jonin, none would be spared the terror of war.
Even the children's only chance at redemption lay in Yusuke's new ability: Seishin Kizuna — Mental Imprint.
Anyone who raises even a spoon against the Kiri ninjas must be eliminated immediately. Only those who surrender and beg will be spared from the war's carnage!
This was Yusuke's merciless decree!
He could be many things — even a demon when necessary — but he wasn't a fool. Possessing an ability to control the masses' minds, he wouldn't squander such valuable labor. He had carefully considered this decision. His new ability was his sole guarantee and security; without it, he'd have to exterminate all the ninjas.
Those who begged for forgiveness, even kneeling and humiliating themselves, were most susceptible to the Imprint. They'd now view Yusuke as a savior, a merciful leader, and a man worthy of respect — far superior to the despicable Raikage who brought ruin to their village.
As for the children? That cruelty was best left to Pedomaru.
The war raged on for a full day and night!
Kumogakure's ninja fought with unprecedented ferocity! After all, losing this battle meant losing everything! They mobilized every ninja in the village, fighting with their backs against the wall!
On the first day, ten thousand ninja still defended the Cloud Village.
As the ninjas on the front lines were the most powerful and willing to die for their cause, they were also the most indoctrinated. Consequently, few surrendered. Out of the five thousand, only five hundred capitulated, undergoing Yusuke's Mental Imprint that very night.
News of the battle spread rapidly throughout the entire ninja world. Konoha, Suna, and Iwa were immediately informed of this war!
On the second day, only three thousand ninja remained in the Cloud Village.
Word that surrender meant a chance at survival spread like wildfire. Of the seven thousand, three thousand people surrendered — a thousand of them children who hadn't even reached adulthood.
This was the true terror of war...
By the third day, Kumogakure's ninja forces were completely annihilated.
Only those who surrendered to the enemy had the slightest chance of survival. In the end, three thousand five hundred ninjas surrendered, while the remaining one thousand five hundred were all children — some having just graduated.
This village-erasing battle raged for exactly three days and three nights. The sounds of slaughter echoed ceaselessly throughout this period.
Finally, at dawn on the fourth day, the gates of Kumogakure were completely breached!
The ten thousand ninja from Kirigakure marched triumphantly into Kumo. In an instant, they seized control of the entire village's vital infrastructure.
❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆❆
On the top floor of the former Raikage's office building, Yusuke stood quietly.
After listening to Mangetsu's report behind him, he nodded slightly and said:
"Announce to the entire ninja world: Kumogakure has fallen! From this moment on, the Cloud Village and the entire Land of Lightning will be incorporated into our Land of Water's territory. Also, eliminate the Lightning Daimyo and all rebellious forces under him."
Upon hearing this, Mangetsu's whole body trembled with excitement. He exclaimed:
"Yes, Lord Yusuke!"
