Chapter 193: War
Four different forces from four different villages had arrived on the island. The first group came from Kumogakure, followed by Kirigakure, Iwagakure, and finally Sunagakure.
There wasn't a single ninja from Uzushiogakure in sight when the invading groups arrived. If not for the reports that the Hyuga clan was residing in Uzushiogakure, they might have believed the people from Sunagakure are not aware with them coming to this island but the defenders had clearly noticed their arrival.
"Guys, remember—if you encounter someone from the Uchiha Clan, don't look into their eyes. And be aware, the Hyuga clan can see from great distances," warned the Raikage.
He then split his forces, taking command of the main assault unit himself.
The Raikage was overconfident in his power. Among the Five Kage, he believed himself to be the strongest, because he had the most unbreakable defense and the most powerful offense.
On the Iwagakure side, Onoki stood with arms crossed, watching the island with cold, calculating eyes.
"Maintain a full perimeter. No one escapes. If possible, take the Hyuga eyes, they don't have seals to prevent them from being stolen."
His second-in-command, a masked jonin, nodded. "The northern and western shores are lightly guarded. We've already landed scouts there."
"Good. Cut off all escape routes. We'll ensure Uzumaki Clan ends today."
Far to the east, a Kirigakure group had also arrived.
"Why is it so quiet?" asked a Mist jonin, scanning the shoreline through his chakra-infused monocle. "No defensive jutsu, no sealing traps... it's too calm."
Meanwhile, in the south where the main assault was planned—the Kumogakure commander, a shinobi in dark armor wielding a massive broadsword, grinned as he eyed the Uzushiogakure gates in the distance.
"This is where the fun begins. Let the others circle and bark from a distance. We'll break through the front and claim the glory."
His lieutenant voiced a concern. "Sir, what if there are traps—"
"There are no traps. Our sensors already scanned the area. Either they've given up the will to fight, or they think they can negotiate or they didn't notice us. Either way, we crush them first."
Finally, near the west, the Hidden Sand forces silently took position on a cliffside.
"Reports say the Uzumaki don't have a jinchuuriki, so our problem isn't a tailed beast—it's their sealing jutsu," said a Sand strategist while laying out the battle plan.
Another ninja asked, "Then why are all four villages needed? This is just a broken village."
"Because we're here by the order of the Daimyo and," the strategist replied. "We're here to steal their jutsu."
Suddenly, a barrier flared to life, surrounding the entire village of Uzushiogakure. The invading forces were forced to halt.
"The barrier! Fall back! They've noticed us!" someone shouted.
---The defender---
"They've arrived," said Setsuna, his voice calm and steady. This is the battle that he had long awaited for.
"Setsuna-sama, are you sure you want to face them alone?" one of the Uchiha asked, his tone laced with concern.
Even Uchiha Sasuke raised an eyebrow, clearly taken aback by the decision to defend the village alone.
"Yes," replied Setsuna.
In an instant, his entire body transformed, cloaked in the radiant, overwhelming power of Kurama's chakra—KCM 3 form. His golden red energy flickered violently in the air, shaking the ground beneath their feet.
Everyone gasped. The Uzumaki ninja, who had always seen Setsuna as their calm and genius inventor and teacher, had no idea he possessed a tailed beast sealed within him.
"S-Setsuna-sama…" one whispered, too shocked to even breathe properly.
"This is my trump card," Setsuna declared, his voice booming with confidence. "I have a tailed beast sealed inside me. So don't worry about them."
He then turned toward the Uchiha Clan. "Those of you with the Mangekyou Sharingan, prepare yourselves. We'll use the power of Susanoo to strike fear into their hearts."
A silent wave of anticipation swept through the Uchiha. Thirty-six Mangekyou eyes began to glow in unison—dozens of crimson pupils whirling with deadly intent.
"I'll go first—and I don't want anyone interfering," said Setsuna as he stepped forward. His movements were slow, deliberate, and confident, like a god descending into battle. His plan was to reduce their numbers before the actual war even began, by using the overwhelming force of Conqueror's Haki.
Even though his Haki was still at a beginner level and not strong enough to knock out fifty thousand enemies like Luffy could, it was still potent enough to overwhelm weaker shinobi.
Setsuna used Kamui to teleport himself just to the outer edge of the perimerter of the seal where he planned to erect a new barrier. With one hand extended, he slammed his palm into the control seal, activating the full power of the barrier. It flared up like molten glass. This wasn't a simple protective seal, it was a deadly defense system. Anyone who tried to enter would be instantly scorched by third-degree burns. Those fast enough might survive with injuries, but the slow or careless would be incinerated on the spot.
Setsuna smirked as he saw all four invading forces immediately halt. Some of the shinobi even instinctively took a few steps back.
Lifting his hand, Setsuna cast the Sonorus Spell.
"TO THE INVADERS, WE KNOW YOU ARE COMING. THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE TO RETREAT. IF YOU CHOOSE TO ADVANCE, WE WILL SHOW YOU NO MERCY."
His voice echoed across the entire island, deep and commanding. Only those outside the barrier could hear him and the inside barrier cannot heard his voice. Setsuna had placed special seals within the barrier to prevent his announcement from reaching the civilians and allies inside.
The invaders were visibly shaken by the voice, many exchanging confused and wary glances.
"Hahahahaha!" The Raikage laughed arrogantly. "You think you'll kill us? No—we're the ones who will kill you! Your numbers are small compared to ours!"
Setsuna smirked and closed his eyes. For a moment, the world fell silent. Then, as he opened them again, an overwhelming wave of Conqueror Haki erupted from him like a tidal force crashing down on the battlefield.
More than 60,000 shinobi were struck by the sheer pressure. Countless genin collapsed on the spot, unconscious before they even understood what hit them. Chunin and some jōnin trembled where they stood, their legs refusing to obey. Even the Kage, couldn't escape the wave of suffocating pressure that swept over them. Their brows furrowed. Their hearts raced. For the first time in decades, they felt the chill of uncertainty.
"ONE MORE TIME—I WARN YOU!" Setsuna's voice thundered through the air, his eyes glowing with the red colour of Sharingan. "IF YOU DARE TO COME CLOSER, WE WON'T SHOW YOU ANY MERCY!"
A moment of stunned silence followed.
