The Kiri Jōnin, though intimidated by Shin's Susanoo, still attacked after the Mizukage gave the order.
They didn't believe they couldn't break through the Susanoo, even with so many of them.
Over forty Jōnin, plus the Mizukage, unleashed their Jutsu. Shin's current Susanoo form couldn't withstand su assault.
But he wasn't going to just stand there and take it.
He eled more Chakra and ocur power into the Susanoo. Armor materialized, and its frew rger.
Then, legs appeared, followed by wings. It was now a true warriod.
The Perfect Susanoo towered over them like a mountain.
Its destructive power was immehe Mizukage couldn't even imagi.
"Mizukage, if I attack, you'll all die. Wouldn't you agree?"
Shin asked.
"So I'll give you a ce to escape. Whether you succeed or not depends on your own abilities."
Bck fmes, Amaterasu, ignited on the Susanoo's sword.
With Amaterasu and Kagutsuchi, Shin could now imbue his Susanoo's ons with the iinguishable fmes.
Sensing the immense dahe Mizukage didn't hesitate. "RETREAT!!!" he yelled.
This wasn't the time to be brave. Even if he didn't care about his own life, he had to sider Kirigakure.
If he died, the vilge would desd into chaos.
The Hōzuki and Kaguya s were already restless. With him gohey might rebel.
The Mizukage and the Kiri Jōnin fled. Shin didn't hold back. He swung his sword.
The earth shook, and a massive chasm opened up, bck fmes burning within.
The Mizukage and the forty elite Jōnin were ied, leaving no trace.
"Don't say I didn't give you a ce. You just couldn't dodge." Shin looked at the devastation he had wrought.
The Mizukage had dodged the sword, but not the Amaterasu fmes.
Shin had finally killed someoh Amaterasu. It was a joyous occasion. It seemed Amaterasu could only truly shine in his hands.
The shockwave from his attack had spread far and wide, catg the retreating Kiri Shinobi and inflig heavy casualties.
With his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, Shin could see the fleeing Kiri Shinobi from a great distance.
The Mizukage had brought over three thousand Shinobi. Over half were dead, most killed by Shin.
This was the greatest loss Kirigakure had ever suffered. And the Mizukage would be remembered as the most disgraceful one.
He had lost the Forbidden Scroll and led Kiri to a crushi. The vilgers would probably demand he it suicide.
Shin didn't care. He had killed many Shinobi, but he felt no guilt.
Shinobi weren't i. If he were killed one day, no one would mourn him.
But that day would never e. No one could kill him.
He didn't pursue the fleeing Kiri Shinobi. He deactivated his Susanoo ainguished the Amaterasu fmes with Kagutsuchi.
He turned a, leaving behind a scar on the nd and tless corpses.
....
Back at the Konoha camp, the Shinobi were restless. They didn't know Shin had attacked Kiri, but they had heard the otion.
"You're finally back! We were about to e looking for you!"
Kushina, Mikoto, and Konan sighed in relief when they saw Shin.
They knew he was strong, but they couldn't help but worry.
"That was loud. We could hear it all the way from camp," Mikoto said.
"By the way, what happeo Kiri?" Kushina asked.
"They've bee with. The remaining Kiri Shinobi are probably running back to their vilge. They won't dare set foot in the Land of Fire again."
Shin said with a smile.
This defeat would leave a sting impression. They wouldn't dare return. The Land of Fire would be their nightmare.
"Dealt with?" Mikoto and Kushina stared at him in surprise. They had thought he would just kill some Kiri Shinobi.
"Yeah, the Third Mizukage is dead. Isn't that sidered 'dealt with'?"
With the Mizukage dead, Kirigakure would be too busy with internal affairs to attack Konoha again.
As for revenge? Shin didn't think they would dare.
Even if they did, he would just kill them. If they angered him, he might even attack Kirigakure aroy the vilge.
Kushina and Mikoto were stuhe Third Mizukage, dead? They couldn't believe it.
"You don't think I'm capable of that?"
"That's not it. It's just... hard to believe. A Kage... dead..."
Mikoto shook her head.
They didn't doubt Shin's strength, but the death of a Kage was still a shock.
"What's so hard to believe? The Mizukage is just a human. There's nothing strange about him dying."
Shin shrugged.
Only he could say such a thing so casually. A Kage was the stro in their vilge.
If news of the Mizukage's death spread, the entire Shinobi world would be shocked.
But to Shin, the Kage weren't that impressive. The truly impressive ones were those like Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju.
