In na, they were the Shimura Clan's "elite ninja army," but in reality, it was only a few dozen individuals.

After all…

Compared to the Sarutobi Clan, the Shimura Clan was far less prominent.

The Sarutobi Clan not only produced Sarutobi Hiruzen, but also his father Sarutobi Sasuke, renowned throughout the ninja world; Sarutobi Shinnosuke served as the head of the Anbu; Sarutobi Asuma was part of the Twelve Guardian Ninja for the Daimyō of the Land of Fire—it was a genuinely distinguished clan, producing talent across generations.

Even by the end of the Fourth Great Ninja War, they could still organize a proper battle formation and jointly unleash the clan's signature Fire Release: Great Fla Technique!

And the Shimura Clan? Other than Shimura Danzō, there was hardly any particularly outstanding individual. These dozens here constituted nearly all of their remaining forces!

At this mont, in the eyes of Mitokado Homura, the Shimura Clan was facing utter annihilation!

Because—

Uchiha Chiyu…

Combining the ninja world's fastest speed in his Lightning Release Chakra Mode with the impenetrable defense of the Strongest Lightning Release Armor, plus the terrifying cutting power of his sword infused with Lightning Release: Blade of False Darkness…

Wherever he went, nothing was left alive!

Only a flash of lightning could be seen, followed by thunderous blasts, and then clouds of blood mist erupted one after another!

The scene resembled a living hell!

Those Shimura Clan "elite" ninja scarcely had ti for so much as a dying scream before being blasted into gory scraps, collapsing right then and there!

Mitokado Homura himself had fought many battles over a long career—he was no stranger to killing and bloodshed. Yet never before had he seen anything so shockingly brutal!

A fleeting thought told him to flee imdiately.

But he also knew: even if he did manage to escape (and that assud Sarutobi Hiruzen would let him off afterward), how could one outrun Uchiha Chiyu, clad in that Lightning Armor, with his peerless speed?

His only option was to take advantage of the fact that the Shimura Clan had not yet been entirely wiped out, to keep fighting with everything they had!

So…

Mito Homura finally roused his own chakra.

He hadn't truly fought in decades. Yet, as soone who once served directly under the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama—alongside Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzō—he absolutely was no pushover.

Chiyu recalled reading in so original references that Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu supposedly "possessed ability and intellect on par with the Hokage." Of course, Chiyu didn't really believe they were at Hiruzen's level—but they still weren't total nobodies.

With a shout, Homura flung off his outer robe, revealing the trim attire beneath. Then he pulled out a scroll from his back, forming seals in rapid succession as he invoked his personal secret technique—

"Manipulated Armory—Hidden Projectile Assault!"

All at once—

A flurry of kunai, shuriken, fūma shuriken, spines, senbon needles, poison darts, caltrops…

Of course, many lit with explosive tags—hurtled forth in a mad torrent from the scroll, aid at Chiyu!

Yet in the face of attacks of that level, Chiyu didn't even bother dodging. He calmly continued slaughtering a Shimura "elite," hacking them in half with an electrical crackle. Flesh and blood spattered everywhere!

Homura frowned, realizing that ordinary attacks wouldn't do anything to him.

"Form the Four Violet Flas Formation!"

At his command, a few especially trained Shimura ninja took positions around Chiyu, initiating the Four Violet Flas Formation—only this ti to protect themselves from Chiyu.

Chiyu sneered:

"Child's play."

With the insight of his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, the gleaming hue of Kuyebiko flared across his eyes. He instantly saw right through the array's weak points. Then—

A bolt of intense lightning erupted!

Boom! Boom!

The Four Violet Flas Formation abruptly shattered from sheer force. Those four ninja operating the barrier spat up blood from the violent backlash.

Homura had known such a barrier wouldn't actually hold Chiyu for long. It only served to buy ti for a finishing strike.

At that very mont, as Chiyu lopped off another barrier-maintaining ninja in a geyser of blood, that man forced out a grin despite his death throes:

"You're finished, Uchiha Chiyu…"

He placed a hand upon Chiyu's body. Right then—

Humm—

Chiyu felt black curse-mark patterns swiftly spreading across his entire body, attempting to seal his every movent!

"That's Shimura Danzō's…

'Self-Cursing Seal?'"

Sure enough, that suicidal ninja was a sealing-arts specialist. He had sacrificed himself in that final grab—imposing the Self-Cursing Seal upon Chiyu!

Suddenly, Chiyu's chakra flow and movent were heavily suppressed; the lightning cloak dimd noticeably…

Mitokado Homura gave a cold laugh.

"Uchiha Chiyu, do you think we'd co here without any plan to handle your Lightning Release Armor? For the sake of our revenge, the Shimura Clan rehearsed all sorts of scenarios for you!"

Chiyu calmly nodded.

"Indeed. Homura, to bind briefly with a curse seal is quite an achievent."

"It's just… Not enough."

He instantly unleashed more powerful chakra, forcibly dispelling that Self-Cursing Seal! Even so, he'd lost maybe just a second or two to the seal.

Homura's face fell.

"Now! While he's sealed—kill him!"

He likewise perford a summoning from his scroll—his trump card:

"Manipulated Armory—Bomb Scatter!"

A giant iron sphere bristling with kunai and explosive tags materialized and ca crashing down on Chiyu's head. At the sa ti, all the remaining Shimura ninja flung every possible jutsu and weapon at him, turning the field into an inferno.

Boom—!

Chiyu shrugged off the seal's restraint.

At once, a massive phantom giant—dark as ink, tinted with crimson—rose up around him:

Susanoo!

Rumble after rumble—

No matter the barrage, no matter the chain of explosive tags from Homura's iron orb, none could breach the Susanoo's outer armor!

Seeing that, Mitokado Homura finally succumbed to despair.

Their ticulously devised trap—sealing him with the Self-Cursing Seal—had barely held him for a single instant before he broke free.

And now Chiyu had unleashed Susanoo on top of that?

The number of Shimura nin was already slashed by half, leaving maybe twenty.

Could there be any chance left except… that final tactic?

Homura inhaled deeply, painfully.

He knew he would die. Nothing could prevent that.

Then… it was ti to end it in mutual destruction?

He pictured old comrades…

Sarutobi Hiruzen, Shimura Danzō, Utatane Koharu, Akimichi Torifū, and… Uchiha Kagami.

Yes—once, they had followed the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama, braving countless warzones. Then the Second Hokage died, Hiruzen succeeded him.

Homura himself, ever since, served as adviser and seldom entered real combat…

His entire life had belonged to Konoha.

For them…

Yes, at this point, if he must die, at least let him drag Uchiha Chiyu to hell with him!

Convinced, Homura charged headlong at Susanoo.

He again launched a storm of kunai, shuriken, and explosive tags, but all were futile.

Susanoo's might was absolute.

Finally…

A trembling, near-death Mito Homura arrived before Susanoo, incurring a downward slash from its sword wreathed in karmic flas.

Blood spurted from his mouth, and he stared up with utter hatred.

"Even if I die—I will—!"

But Chiyu's Susanoo sword fell, unstoppable.

Yet at that last mont, Homura gave a twisted, hysterical grin.

"Uchiha Chiyu—

Die with !!

Reverse Four Symbols Sealing!!"

All at once, Homura's body exuded thick, inky-black fluid gushing out in all directions beneath the blood moon's glow.

Nearby Shimura survivors all fled, yelling:

"Get out of here—! Quick!! That's Lord Danzō's…!"

Chiyu recognized it.

Reverse Four Symbols Sealing—one of Shimura Danzō's ultimate moves. In desperation, Mitokado Homura was replicating it. By triggering a deadly seal already implanted in his body, it would drag everything within hundreds of ters into oblivion, sealed away forever…

Previously, when Chiyu killed Danzō, Danzō never got to use it. Now Homura was unleashing it here at death's door.

Chiyu rely shook his head.

"Such trifling illusions cannot kill , Homura."

But Homura couldn't speak further.

A swirling do of black fluid ford, swiftly expanding to a radius of over a hundred ters, swallowing land, devouring reality into an empty void.

Then…

Nothingness.

However…

Chiyu's figure was already hundreds of ters away, completely safe.

Mitokado Homura's suicide gambit ended in vain…

With that, among Konoha's four elder advisors, Mitokado Homura also perished in battle.

As for the few Shimura clan ninjas still alive, they scattered in desperate flight. But at that mont, Chiyu's shadow clone—leading the Uchiha Police Force—arrived.

They only managed to witness Homura's self-destruction.

Chiyu did not speak.

He only gestured.

"Kill."

So with a thunderous cry, the enraged Uchiha took off in pursuit. anwhile, Chiyu's true body flickered once more in white lightning, harvesting life after life…

The Naka River's waters still flowed.

But on its bank lay corpse after corpse, blood streaming into the river, staining it red beneath the blood moon.

Thus perished the Shimura clan's elite…

And the Shimura clan, once a na in the village, was now effectively extinct.
