The domineering Uchiha drove the Third Hokage mad!

Chapter 542 Root Ninjas, You're Asking for Death!

Three thousand Konoha ninjas stationed on the border marched into the village in orderly steps.

Upon hearing the news, thousands of ninja family members, children, and villagers, totaling nearly ten thousand people, gathered densely in the square at the village entrance.

Crowds thronged, banners fluttered, and an atmosphere of joy filled the air.

Some children clung to their ninja fathers' legs and cried loudly; some wives threw themselves into their husbands' arms and sobbed; and some elderly parents held their returning children's hands, their hands trembling, filled with heartache and relief.

Among the crowd, Uchiha Mitsunaga stood tall and straight like a pine tree, completely out of place amidst the surrounding noise.

He frowned slightly, his gaze quickly sweeping over the crowded people, without lingering on the hustle and bustle of the square.

Although the village was bustling after the war, it was also chaotic and harbored unknown dangers. He just wanted to take the four women with him back to a safe place as soon as possible.

Reaching the fork in the road, Uchiha Mitsunori stopped, pondered for a moment, and turned to the woman beside him: "Huiyi, I'm sorry to trouble you to stay at Ami's house for now. My house is not spacious enough for the five of us. Once I've settled things here, I'll arrange a spacious and comfortable place for you."

Upon hearing this, Uchiha Ami immediately smiled and stepped forward, taking Uzumaki Megumi's arm. Her eyes crinkled with delight, "Megumi-neechan, my house is so spacious! It has its own yard and rooms, it's so comfortable to live in, and we can even talk together!"

With her arm linked with his, Huiyi's awkwardness gradually faded, and she nodded gently: "I'm fine, as long as I have a place to stay, I'm not upset."

Afterwards, Uchiha Mitsunori led Aoyama Yui and Sango toward their home, while Uchiha Ami held Uzumaki Megumi's hand and chattered about the interesting things that happened in the village.

Sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on the bluestone path. A gentle breeze rustled the leaves, bringing a rare post-war tranquility.

Three figures dressed in ANBU uniforms and masked faces suddenly leaped down from the roof, forming a triangle to block the five people's path.

Without any unnecessary pleasantries, the head of the "Anbu" slightly raised his chin: "Aoyama Yui, a former Iwagakure ninja, is suspected of colluding with the Uchiha Sanfeng and committing treason, intending to endanger the safety of Konoha! We are ordered to arrest both of them. Anyone who resists will be killed without exception!"

As he spoke, he slowly drew the short sword from his waist, its blade gleaming coldly, pointing directly at Yui Aoyama.

Yui Aoyama froze, her body trembling slightly. She instinctively clutched Uchiha Mitsunori's sleeve: "Mitsunori, I didn't! I've never betrayed you! Ever since I left Iwagakure, I've followed you wholeheartedly..."

Uchiha Mitsunori gently patted the back of her hand, the warmth of his palm passing through his sleeve to reassure her, while his sharp gaze swept over the three "Anbu" members in front of him.

These people were stiff and their chakra fluctuations were chaotic and sinister. Although they wore ANBU uniforms, they did not have the composure and secrecy unique to ANBU ninjas. Instead, they exuded the sinister and violent aura unique to Root ninjas, hiding in the gutter.

"These scum from the Root dare to impersonate the Dark Guard and swagger in front of me?"

Uchiha Mitsunori's tone was full of disdain, and his chakra surged slightly, indicating that he was ready to make a move.

His figure vanished from the spot in an instant, his Instantaneous Movement Technique pushed to its limit. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of the leading "Anbu" member, the gust of wind around him stirring up the dust on the ground.

Before the other person could react, he raised his hand and slapped him, sending him flying and crashing into the wall with a "bang".

The mask instantly fell off, revealing a strange and ordinary face, with a hidden mark etched on the root of the tongue.

Upon seeing this, the other two "Anbu" members' pupils shrank sharply, and they immediately drew their short swords from their waists, rushing towards Uchiha Mitsumine, aiming straight for his vital points.

Uchiha Mitsumine sneered and slapped them twice with lightning speed. With two crisp "slaps," the two "Anbu" members were instantly sent flying, crashing heavily against the wall, spitting blood, and their short swords flying from their hands.

But this was just the beginning. On the rooftops on both sides, more than a dozen Root ninjas leaped down instantly, each holding ninja tools and their eyes filled with killing intent.

The Root squad leader, dressed in a black, close-fitting outfit, his face as cold as iron, sternly rebuked, "Uchiha Mitsumine, how dare you openly attack an Anbu ninja! Insubordination! Are you plotting to betray the village?!"

Uchiha Mitsunori scoffed, his disdain growing even stronger.

He had no interest in wasting his time arguing with these clowns.

"Traitor to the village...you dare to speak to me like that?"

He moved swiftly, using his teleportation technique once more, instantly appearing in front of the Root Division Captain. He raised his hand and delivered a resounding slap, sending the Root Division Captain spinning in place, his cheek instantly swelling and turning red.

"You bunch of scum who hide in the gutter and dare not face the light, do you even dare to mention the words 'traitor to the village' in front of me? Why don't you take a piss and look at yourselves in the mirror!"

The gen squad leader was slapped until he was dizzy. After regaining his balance, his eyes were filled with rage and humiliation. The pain in his cheek was nothing compared to the anger in his heart.

He roared fiercely, "Attack! Kill him! Kill them all! Including these two women, leave no one alive!"

The Root ninjas around them immediately attacked in unison, their hands rapidly forming hand seals. Fire Release: Great Dragon Ball Technique and Wind Release: Gale Palm intertwined, carrying scorching air waves and sharp gusts of wind, and blasted towards Uchiha Mitsumine, Aoyama Yui, Sango, and the other three.

Some even secretly took out explosive tags, clearly intending to wipe them out completely.

In the chaos, a small Root ninja quietly took a half step back, lowered his body, and quickly formed hand seals.

He is a member of the Yamanaka clan, forcibly recruited into Root by Danzo. He is skilled in the Mind Transfer Technique and is usually used as a hidden weapon. Now he wants to take advantage of the situation to control the three peaks of the Uchiha clan and turn the tide of the battle.

"The Art of Mind Transference!"

With a low shout, an invisible spiritual entity quietly detached from his body, carrying a faint amount of chakra, and rapidly burrowed into the body of Uchiha Mitsumine. The movement was so secretive and swift that no one noticed.

Just as the spirit was about to enter Uchiha Mitsunori's body, the mountain ninja suddenly let out a shrill scream, a sharp and desperate sound that echoed throughout the alley.

The spiritual body seemed to have crashed into an impenetrable wall, instantly torn apart and crushed by a powerful force, without even a chance to struggle.

Everyone looked on in astonishment to see the mountain ninja bleeding from all seven orifices, his body limp and collapsed on the ground, his eyes wide open, and his breath gone. He had clearly suffered the backlash of the Mind Transfer Technique and was completely lifeless.

No one knew that a terrifying being lurked within the spiritual world of the Uchiha Three Peaks. The moment that faint spiritual entity entered, a colossal phantom of Susanoo suddenly appeared, surrounded by an aura of world-destroying power.

Even a mere wisp of its aura was enough to crush that weak spiritual entity. Susanoo slightly raised its hand, and with a gentle squeeze of its enormous palm, it completely annihilated that spiritual entity.

Uchiha Sanfeng remained unmoved; this was the consequence of daring to trespass into his mental world.

Seeing that the Root ninjas were using explosive tags and deadly ninjutsu, even intending to kill Aoyama Yui and Sango, two unrelated people, Uchiha Mitsunori's eyes were filled with a chill.

The crimson Sharingan suddenly spun, its speed increasing rapidly until it transformed into the Mangekyou Sharingan. Strange patterns flowed within its eyes, and the murderous aura emanating from its body almost materialized.

"Since you're courting death, don't blame me for being impolite! Today, I'll send you scum on a journey to the Impure World!"

With a low shout, Uchiha Mitsunori's chakra erupted once more, and the third stage of Susanoo was formed.

The armor was thick and cold, with strange patterns. He held a huge chakra blade, looking both majestic and terrifying.

The enormous figure almost blocked out the entire alleyway, casting a shadow over the ground and inspiring fear.

Susanoo slowly raised its hand, and its huge palm gently fell, tightly protecting Aoyama Yui and Sango behind it, isolating them from all attacks and shockwaves.

Immediately, the enormous hand slammed down, sending two Root ninjas flying with a single slap. The sound of bones shattering was clearly audible. The two men instantly lost their breath, crashing heavily to the ground and turning into a pile of minced meat.

The commotion at the alley entrance had already alerted the crowd not far away, especially the Uchiha clan members who were lingering and packing their belongings near the square. Hearing the sounds of fierce fighting and the roar of Susanoo, they rushed over, their steps hurried, each holding ninja tools, their expressions wary and angry.

When they saw the Susanoo activated by Uchiha Mikado, saw that huge and majestic figure, and saw the Mangekyou Sharingan rotating in Mikado's eyes, their eyes lit up, their faces were full of excitement and pride, and they started discussing it, their tone full of pride.

Susanoo is the strongest symbol of the Uchiha clan, the ultimate power that only the Mangekyou Sharingan can unlock. Now, Lord Sanmine can actually unlock the third stage of Susanoo, which is enough to prove his strength, uphold the glory of the Uchiha clan, and make the entire Konoha fear the Uchiha!

"It's Lord Mimine! It's Lord Mimine's Susanoo!" a young Uchiha ninja shouted excitedly, his voice trembling, his eyes filled with admiration.

"These bastards dared to besiege Lord Sanfeng and even use explosive tags! They're courting death!" A Jonin Uchiha said coldly, his voice filled with rage, as he drew his ninja sword from his waist.

"Arrest all of them! I believe they are spies from an enemy country, plotting to assassinate our Uchiha's strongest members and disrupt Konoha's peace!"

An elder of the Uchiha clan shouted sternly, his tone filled with anger and authority, his chakra surging slightly, already prepared to make a move.

"That's right, they must be spies... Everyone, attack together... Don't let them get away!"

The surrounding Uchiha clan members echoed in unison, drawing their ninja tools and surrounding the remaining Root ninjas.
