Chapter 120: Forcing the Daimyo of the Land of Fire to Sign an Unequal Treaty!
At noon, the sky over the capital of the Land of Fire suddenly darkened.
The guards looked up and saw the clouds being stirred by an invisible force.
Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the clouds, bathing the entire capital in an eerie orange glow.
"What is that?" The sentry on the city wall asked in a trembling voice.
The next second, a deafening roar resounded through the sky.
A sudden storm swept through the entire capital.
The roof tiles shattered, street stalls were overturned, and people fled in terror.
In that instant, it was as if time itself had frozen.
Countless terrified eyes stared intently at the sky, unable to believe what they were seeing.
The clouds were torn apart by two giant hands, and a huge figure slowly descended from the crack.
That was the complete Susanoo, an orange giant over two hundred meters tall.
It spread its wings, and its enormous shadow covered half the city, as if the end of the world had come.
Finally, Susanoo landed on the ground, and with each step it took, the earth trembled violently.
With each step taken, bricks and stones on the city wall crumbled and fell, as if the city itself could not bear its weight.
A cry of alarm broke the brief silence: "Quick...protect the Daimyo...raise the barrier!"
As the twelve elite ninjas simultaneously formed hand seals, a dazzling defensive barrier instantly rose above the royal palace.
However, upon seeing the enormous, fully-formed Susanoo, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire was filled with terror.
He slumped onto the throne, the wine glass slipping from his hand, splashing wine onto the floor, forming a dark red stain that seemed to foreshadow the impending bloodshed.
"Uchiha...Uchiha Mitsumine...Susanoo..."
The daimyo of the Land of Fire's voice trembled, revealing his fear and despair over the name.
Through the shattered dome of the palace, he saw the figure in the crystal on Susanoo's forehead... those Mangekyou Sharingan... coldly looking down at him.
Uchiha Mitsumine's voice boomed like thunder over the capital.
"Daimyo of the Land of Fire, I am very displeased that you sent 7000 ninja to besiege Konoha. Now I announce three treaties, and I hope you will agree to them!"
"First: The former site of Konoha Village will become a permanent neutral zone, not under the jurisdiction of the Land of Fire, and no troops are allowed to be stationed within a 60-kilometer radius!"
"Second: Trade in this region is tax-free, and the Land of Fire is prohibited from interfering in any way!"
"Third: I will leave 200 ninjas in the area to maintain order."
The daimyo of the Land of Fire's lips trembled incessantly, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
He tried to stand up from his seat, but his legs felt like they were nailed to the ground and wouldn't obey him at all.
The enormous figure of the complete Susanoo stood before the palace like a mountain.
The giant sword in its hand, over a hundred meters long, pointed straight at the royal palace, exuding an irresistible aura of power.
"Don't worry, I will relocate all the remaining Konoha ninja to the Land of Water!"
The daimyo of the Land of Fire stared wide-eyed, his body involuntarily shrinking back as if he wanted to flee this terrifying place.
However, he was, after all, the ruler of a nation. Clinging to his last shred of dignity, he shouted with all his might, "Uchiha Mitsunori...you...you dare threaten me?"
With a slight sweep of Susanoo's giant sword, the easternmost tower of the palace, pointed at by the sword tip, suddenly emitted a loud bang and then collapsed.
Gravel flew everywhere like raindrops, and the dust it kicked up filled the entire palace square.
Hidden by rubble and dust, Uchiha Mitsunori's voice, as cold and piercing as if from hell, rang out: "This is not a threat, this is a notification. Otherwise... I wouldn't mind having the Land of Fire... change to an obedient daimyo."
The air inside the palace seemed to have frozen, a deathly silence reigned.
The daimyo of the Land of Fire stared intently at the man before him, his heart filled with fear and despair.
In front of this man, he felt like a lamb to the slaughter, powerless to fight back.
Daiming's lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but his throat felt as if something was blocking it, and he couldn't make a sound.
He swallowed hard, forcing out a sentence through gritted teeth: "I...I accept..."
This sentence was extremely difficult to say, as if each word weighed a ton.
As the Daimyo finished speaking, the enormous figure of Susanoo slowly disappeared into the air.
Uchiha Mitsunaga appeared before the Fire Country Daimyo in an instant, like a ghost.
His gaze was icy cold: "I'll give you fifteen minutes. I need to see the official documents."
After saying that, he ignored Da Ming and turned to stand quietly to the side, waiting for time to pass.
The daimyo of the Land of Fire's fingers trembled slightly, as if the words on the edict were so heavy that he could hardly bear them.
He served as a high-ranking official for over thirty years, enjoying smooth sailing and having all his wishes fulfilled.
Today, he completely abandoned his usual elegance and composure.
The ink on the document, still wet, trembled slightly at his fingertips, as if it too feared the fate that was about to befall it.
However, at that very moment, Uchiha Mitsunori snatched the document away.
His movements were so fast that they were almost impossible to see.
Uchiha Mitsunaga unfurled the scroll and quickly scanned each word.
Suddenly, he let out a cold laugh, a laugh filled with disdain and mockery.
"You think you can fool me by writing 'Special Autonomous Region' instead of 'Permanent Neutral Zone'?"
Before he finished speaking, a powerful flame erupted from his hand, enveloping the document completely.
In the blink of an eye, the document turned to ashes in the raging fire, as if it had never existed.
The daimyo of the Land of Fire said, trembling, "I was too nervous just now, that's why I made a mistake!"
Uchiha Mitsunori's face was cold and ruthless, like the pronouncement of death: "My patience is limited. Don't try any tricks, or you'll suffer a terrible death!"
Suddenly, eight ninjas sprang up from the shadows, hurling a barrage of kunai from eight directions, attacking Uchiha Mitsumine's entire body!
Uchiha Mitsuhide's Mangekyou Sharingan suddenly spun, and a three-headed, six-armed, half-body Susanoo instantly appeared and crushed two nearby ninjas to death.
The remaining six attackers also suddenly froze, their kunai in hand, and instead of turning around, they plunged them into their own throats.
After eliminating these people, Uchiha Mitsunori said expressionlessly, "You have eight minutes left."
The fire daimyo's teeth were chattering, making a clicking sound.
He painstakingly finished writing the second document and then respectfully handed it to Uchiha Mitsunori.
Uchiha Mitsunori took the document, confirmed it was correct, and nodded slightly: "I hope you will keep your promise, otherwise next time..."
