Capítulo 81: Chapter 81 - Kyosuke's Death?
Read 20+ Chapter's Ahead in Patreon
That charred body was naturally Kyosuke's, who had been affected by the Kirin technique.
This lightning-style jutsu has a terrifying destructive power, but unfortunately, the conditions for its use are too strict, so it cannot be used as a conventional means of confrontation.
Without the help of the barrier to funnel the thermal air to the clouds above, Kyosuke might not have been able to use it in the battle.
For the past two months, he had been focusing on studying Kirin.
Unexpectedly, the first time he used it, it saved his life and also completed the eradication of a powerful enemy.
[System Prompt: Killed Senju Nobunaga, gained 16,000 points.]
This was the first time the system reported a name, indicating that clan leader-level figures were indeed special existences.
The clan leader level, or Kage-level during the village era, gives a minimum of 10,000 points for a successful kill, with a cap of 40,000 points.
From this, it is clear that Senju Nobunaga's strength was not all that great.
It's not that he's at the bottom of the Kage level, but it's unlikely he was much better.
However, a Kage is still a Kage and a crucial strategic resource. The unexpected loss of such a strong figure would undoubtedly be a blow to the Senju clan.
What had once seemed like a promising battle might now collapse because of it, especially since they had yet to achieve their original goal.
When Kirin struck, Kyosuke used Chidori to counter the lightning.
At the time, he was near the barrier and was not directly harmed, so he narrowly escaped disaster.
Otherwise, he would have had to spend 20,000 points to buy a recovery potion.
[Points: 24,742.]
Kyosuke, whose body was blackened, glanced at his remaining points and sighed. Saving up points is indeed an extremely difficult task.
After struggling for a while, once his space-time jutsu failed, he used the last of his strength to summon a summoning beast.
"Take me back." After speaking, he collapsed to the ground and lost consciousness completely.
"Kyosuke-sama!" The snake was startled, then, after a moment's thought, swallowed Kyosuke into what seemed like an alternate space within its stomach before canceling the summoning.
Not specifying where to take him, the summoned beast naturally assumed it was returning to the Ryūchi Cave.
In a way, this unintentionally helped Kyosuke.
When the legion leader didn't return for a long time, and Hiti suddenly dispelled the summoning, anyone with a brain would know something went wrong.
The ambush had caused such a commotion, it was impossible to keep it hidden from either side's forces.
Soon, the details of the incident were put on the table.
[The Senju clan designed an ambush against Uchiha Kyosuke.]
[Senju Nobunaga is dead, Uchiha Kyosuke's whereabouts are unknown, suspected to have used a lightning jutsu to perish together.]
Staring at the report on the intelligence, Uchiha Madara remained silent, his body radiating a dense killing intent.
That feeling made Izuna, who was beside him, nervous. He had never seen his older brother this angry.
Of course, Izuna was also furious. Kyosuke was the target he had always wanted to surpass and the only person within the clan whom he considered a true friend.
He never expected that his friend would die due to the enemy's plot.
If he didn't avenge this, Izuna swore he would never consider himself human.
In the midst of his thoughts, Uchiha Madara, sitting in the commander's seat, suddenly stood up without a word and walked outside.
"Izuna, go to the front line."
"Uh, brother, what are you going to do?"
"Kill Someone"
Uchiha Madara's eyes were icy cold, and his entire aura had changed dramatically. It seemed as though something within him was awakening.
---
On the other side, the situation in the Senju clan was similar.
"How could this be?!"
Tobirama's eyes widened in disbelief. This was his uncle, and he couldn't believe that he had died at Kyosuke's hands.
No matter how many times he read it, he couldn't believe the report.
"Damn it! Where's the Uzumaki Ashina?" He shouted in rage.
"Um, the Uzumaki clan leader has already returned, and it is said that he was also seriously injured." was the response.
"That bastard still has the nerve to go back and recuperate?!" A look of hatred flashed across Tobirama's eyes.
If it weren't for that guy, his uncle wouldn't have died.
Now he walks away like nothing happened, without even considering the situation of their clan.
"The Land of the Whirlpool." Tobirama muttered to himself. This grudge, he had made a note of it.
As for Hashirama beside him, his sadness was even more intense than anyone else's.
His uncle's death pained him, but Kyosuke's fall dealt an even heavier blow.
Had he known earlier, he would have spared no effort to stop it.
That's why, when the ambush plan was discussed, everyone had deliberately avoided him.
Now, it was too late. His relative was dead, and his like-minded companion had vanished without a trace.
These consecutive blows made Hashirama feel completely defeated.
"Big brother, you need to pull yourself together. Father is unconscious. You must bear the responsibility of leading the war," Tobirama continued to try and motivate him.
For the first time in his life, Hashirama felt his brother was being overly insistent.
In the end, Hashirama still stepped onto the battlefield amidst the angry cries of the clan.
"War."
"This meaningless slaughter, when will it end?"
"Is it really as Kyosuke said, that I must possess the power to control everything?"
Unknowingly, Hashirama's mindset began to shift.
As his emotions changed, a strange power began to awaken within him.
---
"Ugh~ The strange ceiling~"
Kyosuke, wearing the special edition mummified skin, groggily opened his eyes.
Beside him, a beautiful girl with deep blue hair was looking at him with an emotionless gaze.
"You're finally awake."
"You're really bold, kid. How dare you use the Ryūchi Cave as a shelter."
"If it weren't for the White Snake Sage's orders, you'd have already turned to waste and been expelled from.y body."
This cold-voiced girl was none other than one of the three high-ranking members of the Ryūchi Cave, the Snake Princess, Ichikishimahime.
"Uh." Kyosuke blinked, silently cursing the unreliable summoning beast Python in his heart.
It was supposed to bring him back to the camp, but somehow it ended up here at the Ryūchi Cave.
Oh, that's right, he didn't give any special instructions before he fell unconscious. So, it wasn't really the beast's fault.
Damn it, now he was even more upset.
Carefully glancing at the girl, Kyosuke hesitated before speaking: "Uh, sorry, I can leave right now."
"Leave?" Ichikishimahime coldly laughed and said, "If it weren't for the timely arrival, you'd have been dead by now."
What? Kyosuke gasped, not expecting that he had been injured so severely.
If he had known, he would have just exchanged for a healing medicine.
In fact, the healing potions in the system have different levels.
For such severe injuries, a recovery potion costing 20,000 points was required to heal him.
The problem was, he just couldn't bring himself to spend that much. If he continued like this, it would take a long time to earn enough points for the Mangekyō Sharingan.
"Uh, thank you, Miss, for saving me. I will forever be in your debt."
"Alright, alright." Ichikishimahime interrupted him, saying something that made Kyosuke's heart jump: "I never said you're safe now."
"To truly recover, you'll need to visit the Ryūchi Trapped pond."
"It contains abundant natural energy that might help restore your injured body."
"The premise is, of course, that you don't turn into a mindless beast."
