Naruto: Uchiha Madara's Cousin

Chapter 126: 126. Misunderstanding



"Eh?"

Feeling the gust of wind pressure from above, Uchiha Gin's curly hair was blown into a messy state.

The Senju clan caught up this quickly? And the approaching person's strength wasn't ordinary—they had managed to evade his senses.

Raising his eyebrows, Uchiha Gin was just about to deal with the attacker dropping from the sky when he heard a loud shout from above.

"Die, human trafficker!"

???

That familiar term awakened Uchiha Gin's buried memories.

Quickly raising his head, he saw a red figure charging toward him, with two bright red bun hairstyles swaying freely in the wind.

"Tsk! How annoying."

The girl clinging to Uchiha Gin's arm also sensed the intruder.

After finally finding a moment to get close to him, being interrupted like this was unforgivable.

Uchiha Hikari's eyes immediately turned blood-red. She looked up, her beautiful, angry gaze fixed on the descending figure.

As the bewitching patterns in her eyes appeared, a cold and eerie aura surged around Uchiha Hikari.

She slightly raised her eyelids, and a transparent, cherry-red skeleton slowly formed behind her, transforming into a half-body Susanoo.

Uchiha Hikari's cherry-red Susanoo used its massive body to shield both her and Gin, wielding a several-meter-long machete, and without hesitation, she slashed at the rapidly falling figure from the sky.

"Ah? Hikari, stop!"

Everything happened too fast. By the time Uchiha Gin reluctantly tore his gaze away from the bright red hair buns, the girl beside him had already launched a fierce attack in her Susanoo form.

This was a classic case of one family member not recognizing another in the heat of the moment.

But Uchiha Hikari, now in a state of rage, had dark energy swirling around her brow, completely ignoring Gin's words as she continued to drive her Susanoo with undiminished force.

Trapped inside the Susanoo, Uchiha Gin was at his wit's end.

He had no choice but to act.

Gathering strength in his legs, he prepared to forcibly break out and salvage the situation. However, the next scene shattered his entire worldview.

"What the... is that technique...?"

Before her empowered fists could land, Uzumaki Mito, who had just finished shouting, noticed the strange half-body giant forming beside Uchiha Gin.

Her mind flashed to a certain ninjutsu recorded within her clan—something only those at the pinnacle of the Uchiha clan could possess.

"I didn't expect the human trafficker to become this strong."

For some reason, a hint of joy sprouted in her heart, and a subtle light flickered in her beautiful eyes as she pondered something.

But I'm not far behind.

Golden light flashed in Uzumaki Mito's pitch-black eyes, and her fiery red robe began to billow, though there was no wind.

The girl activated all the power hidden in her Uzumaki bloodline, and the already vast chakra around her began to materialize.

"What the... seriously?"

Uchiha Gin's dead-fish eyes widened to the size of saucers, and he forgot to close his gaping mouth.

Countless massive golden chains extended from Uzumaki Mito's back, spreading out like the steel wings of an angel. Each chain was tipped with a sharp spike, and they moved at her command, intertwining in the air.

As the chains stacked and merged, they formed a giant golden chain titan, dozens of meters tall, wrapping the girl's small figure within it. The golden titan swung its enormous iron fists, bringing down an unstoppable force from the sky.

Adamantine Sealing Chains: Chain Colossus

A grand entrance!

"Smack!"

The stunned Uchiha Gin couldn't help but slap himself with his enhanced strength. Feeling the slight pain on his face, he snapped back to reality and instinctively swallowed a gulp of saliva.

"I'm still in the Naruto world, right? Not in a giant robot TV show?"

"Boom!!!"

The cherry-red machete clashed with the golden chain fist, producing a powerful impact that sent shockwaves through the area, leaving the onlookers completely disoriented.

Uchiha Haruka was the first to hide behind a large boulder, shielding herself from the earth-shattering collision.

Feeling the tremors from the giant rock pressed against her, the girl's heart was filled not only with shock but also with envy.

Her narrowed eyes glinted with determination—one day, she would become this strong.

"Ahhh!!!"

Kinkaku and Ginkaku weren't so lucky. Positioned right at the center of the battlefield, they were blown away by the powerful shockwaves.

The stronger Kinkaku managed to cling to a tree, narrowly avoiding being thrown into the abyss, while Ginkaku wasn't so fortunate. He was swept up by the wind, heading straight for a deadly cliff.

"Brother, help me!"

Terrified, the Ginkaku shouted, but the wind was too strong, and his open mouth quickly filled with dust.

Just as he was about to meet his doom, a thick tree branch shot up from the ground, tightly wrapping around the flailing Ginkaku, saving him from certain death.

"Phew, just in time."

Inside the Susanoo, Uchiha Gin wiped the sweat from his forehead, dispelling the faint blue glow from his hands. He couldn't let these two kids die—they were crucial to dealing with Senju Tobirama later!

"Thud!"

The shockwave subsided, and Kinkaku Ginkaku brothers fell to the ground. Kinkaku rushed to check on his younger sibling and, upon finding only minor injuries, looked toward Uchiha Gin with deep gratitude in his eyes.

But Uchiha Gin was too focused on the two girls' duel to pay them any mind.

Uchiha Hikari frowned. Despite her efforts, her Susanoo couldn't advance an inch. The stranger before her was no ordinary opponent.

Unwilling to admit defeat, she poured even more of her ocular power into her Susanoo. The cherry-red Susanoo, bathed in the girl's eye power, began to evolve.

Her cherry-red half-body Susanoo grew taller, sprouting legs and even a pair of bone wings on its back. It only stopped when it reached the height of the golden chain titan.

"Hehe, now we're evenly matched!"

With a sinister grin, the girl looked across at her opponent, making Uchiha Gin shiver.

The third-stage cherry-red Susanoo pushed back the still-stunned golden chain giant, raising its now-massive machete and slashing at the titan with relentless force.

"Huh? Ah!"

Inside the golden titan, Uzumaki Mito was momentarily stunned.

The once smaller cherry-red Susanoo had suddenly grown to match her own giant chain robot.

Caught off guard, she staggered as the massive machete struck her.

"The human trafficker is truly ruthless. If that's how it's going to be, I won't hold back. After I defeat you, we'll catch up properly."

Not one to be intimidated, Uzumaki Mito's fighting spirit surged. In her mind, she imagined a grand reunion with Uchiha Gin after destroying his Susanoo.

She fully unleashed her golden titan, and its enormous hands struck the Susanoo with a deafening boom.

"Ugh~"

Inside the Susanoo, Uchiha Hikari was almost knocked over by the impact. Struggling to steady herself, she wiped the sweat from her face. Instead of feeling discouraged, a beautiful smile curved her lips.

"It's been a long time since I've faced a worthy opponent. Let's have some fun!"

Hearing her words, Uchiha Gin couldn't help but feel a little nauseous. Who would've thought this seemingly gentle girl had such a battle-hungry nature?

What followed looked like a classic mecha battle scene.

The two giants clashed fiercely in the forest. The cherry-red Susanoo wielded its massive machete, the blood-red blade gleaming menacingly in the sunlight. Meanwhile, the golden titan relied on its sturdy fists, each blow shaking the ground with a thunderous sound.

"Heh, interesting~"

Both girls hummed in unison from their "cockpits."

Uchiha Hikari's cherry-red Susanoo swung its gigantic machete as if determined to cut down everything in its path. Each strike sent the surrounding trees and air into creaking disarray.

Meanwhile, Uzumaki Mito's golden titan nimbly deflected the machete with its fists, seizing every opportunity to punch at the Susanoo's lower body, causing Uchiha Hikari to knit her eyebrows in annoyance.

Unlike Uchiha Hikari, who was fully immersed in the battle, Uzumaki Mito began to feel something was off. While she could sense the human trafficker's chakra coming from the Susanoo, it wasn't as strong as she'd expected. Instead, an ominous and oppressive aura dominated her senses.

Taking advantage of a lull in the battle, Uzumaki Mito discreetly activated her sensory ability, narrowing her range for more precise detection.

Kagura's Mind Eye, an Uzumaki clan exclusive technique, allowed for ultra-wide-area sensory detection. When activated, it could sense abnormalities within a radius of dozens of kilometers. Furthermore, if specific chakra signatures were already identified, it could provide detailed information about their position, numbers, characteristics, and even movement speed.

"Wait, the one controlling it is that girl?"

Through the use of her sensory abilities, Uzumaki Mito accurately identified the controller of the Susanoo. To her surprise, it wasn't Uchiha Gin, as she initially thought, but rather the seemingly helpless girl who appeared to be under his control. Shocked, she thought to herself, "Could it be that the 'human trafficker' is actually the one being coerced? Was he raising his hand earlier to surrender?"

For a moment, Uzumaki Mito was confused, her mind racing with different possibilities.

"Hikari, can you stop fighting for a moment?" Uchiha Gin, dizzy from the shaking inside the Susanoo, grabbed the girl's shoulder and pleaded.

"No!" Hikari responded without even turning around, her anger still raging. There was no way she would back down first. If anyone was going to stop, it would have to be the other side.

"Sigh, this is so troublesome," Uchiha Gin muttered. Seeing that words were not enough to stop her, he helplessly moved to the corner of the "cockpit" inside the Susanoo. He placed a hand on the crimson structure, intending to force his way out.

But to his surprise, when he applied his strength, the chakra feedback from the Susanoo felt oddly familiar. Raising his eyebrows, he attempted to infuse his own chakra into it and found that the Susanoo offered no resistance, accepting his chakra naturally.

Realizing what was happening, Uchiha Gin slapped his forehead in sudden understanding. "Of course! Hikari's eyes share a part of mine, so our chakra is naturally connected."

He then tried to open a door in the Susanoo. As soon as he thought of it, a door appeared.

"Just as I expected!" he exclaimed.

Without hesitation, Uchiha Gin pushed the door open and leaped out of the prison that had held him for so long.

"Now, time to stop this fight!"
