Chapter 13 - Whirlpool Empire cap 13

Gin was prepared for the world to see him as a demon. 

He knew that no one would have mercy on him and his clan if they were on the losing side. 

The rest of the world looked with hungry eyes at the knowledge of the Uzumaki clan and wanted to absorb their bloodline into their ranks. 

As she looked down, her lips formed a mocking smile as her palms came together. 

"Zero Hand"

Mu calmly approached his destination, flying through the air, his hands preparing to unleash his Jutsu.

Performing another Ninjutsu would ruin his camouflage, so he must attack quickly. 

He didn't know how his enemy absorbed his Dust Release jutsu, but he assumed he couldn't do the same at close range. 

It was even possible that it was a skill of the enormous lightning dragon, so it could attack at point-blank range and defeat its enemy. 

!!! 

Suddenly, all the alarms went off in Mu's mind when he started seeing everything around him in slow motion. 

Behind Mu, a blue circle formed and quickly a ball of lightning half a meter in diameter appeared. 

Mu's invisible eyes opened rapidly as he wondered what was giving him this deathly feeling. 

He looked in Gin Uzumaki's direction, but only saw him with his palms together…

'wait'

Suddenly, Mu realized that Gin Uzumaki did not have his palms together before, and only now did he notice. 

But it was too late. 

"Zero Water"

That was all he heard before a pillar of lightning pierced his body and erased him from existence. 

Seeing the terrifying lightning dragon approaching them, the sand and stone ninjas felt their hearts want to jump out of their mouths. 

But because they were farther away, it was possible that more of them would survive if they dispersed. 

And that's what they did. 

None of them thought about diving into the sea because they weren't very fast underwater and the dragon could electrocute them more easily. 

Aside from the Third Raikage and Second Mizukage, who had white faces due to the loss of their ninjas, the Third Kazekage sighed as they watched his ninjas disappear into the distance. 

The three of them couldn't see Mu, but they assumed he was under his characteristic camouflage and could be anywhere. 

Suddenly… 

¡¡¡RUMBLE!!! 

They quickly looked up in amazement as a pillar of lightning formed above them and stretched for miles in the distance. 

They stared in amazement at the power of this pillar of lightning, asking what had happened, but it wasn't long before they found out. 

Near them, the air distorted and Mu's figure appeared. 

But it was something different. 

He felt… weaker. 

They quickly realized what had happened and looked up, but found no trace of Mu's clone and knew that the Uzumaki patriarch had destroyed it. 

"What kind of jutsu is that?" said the Second Mizukage, and everyone wondered the same thing. 

To inform his temporary allies, Mu quickly recounted what he saw and how this pillar of lightning appeared out of nowhere behind his clone, and he didn't realize it until it was too late. 

They all swallowed hard and wondered if they could escape a jutsu like that. 

'It's like the legends of Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara,' everyone thought. 

Among those present, only Mu had faced Uchiha Madara and knew how powerful he was, but everyone had heard of the destructive battles between the two titans that changed the geography. 

Their last battle was the most destructive of all and the one that instilled fear in all countries. 

It was because of that last battle that everyone waited to be sure of Hashirama Senju's death before facing the Leaf Village. 

Now that they had no ninjas to defend, the 4 kages thought about quickly retreating from the place. 

No one wanted to stay and face this monster and his lightning dragon. 

Although the lightning dragon was much faster than them, they were ninjas who had various survival skills. 

As they prepared to leave the place and use their secret skills to lose the lightning dragon, they watched in confusion as the lightning dragon ascended into the clouds. 

When they saw the dragon disappear into the black clouds, and shortly afterwards these black clouds grew rapidly in size to cover an area of tens of square kilometers, they knew that something bad was going to happen. 

"Rain of Dragons!"

The same voice that announced the appearance of the lightning dragon sounded again, filling the fleeing ninjas with dread. 

They could clearly see the sky above their heads filling with black clouds, and terror filled their bodies and minds. 

'I don't want to die,' they all thought. 

But even as they prayed for the nightmare to end, they watched with wide eyes as the sky filled with bright lights. 

Woooosh

Woooosh

Woooosh

Woooosh 

Woooosh 

Suddenly, dragon-headed spears made of lightning began to fall from the sky. 

It was a beautiful and terrifying sight. 

From a distance, one could see an area of tens of square kilometers bathed in blue electric lights. 

It was a 'beautiful' catastrophe. 

In addition to the ninjas from the 4 villages who were trying to escape, the 4 kages were also fleeing like rabbits being hunted. 

The four Kage were somewhat lucky, as Gin wasn't specifically targeting them. 

Gin's plan was to eliminate as many ninjas as possible from enemy villages and leave the kages as a concern for the Leaf Village. 

He had already realized that the 'Mu' he killed was just a clone, but he didn't care and didn't pursue him. 

Just as the blade betrayed them by revealing the secret of its swirls, Gin will not specifically target these 4 kages. 

As for whether they could escape this lightning storm? 

Gin left them to their fate. 

If they had the ability to escape the area, Gin would not pursue them. 

The Third Raikage used the speed and reflexes granted by his lightning armor to dodge the rain of lightning dragons and escape the area after half an hour. 

The Third Kazekage used all his reserves of iron dust to defend himself against the lightning storm and barely escape the area. 

A little more and the strongest Kazekage wouldn't live another day. 

The Second Mizukage and Tsuchikage were not so lucky. 

The first one tried to escape across the sea with the advantage given to him by his Hozuki lineage, but the number of lightning spears that fell upon the sea was overwhelming. 

The weakness of his hydration ability was the lightning element, so he went through a very difficult time before he died. 

As for the second one, Mu tried everything, even splitting his body again in an attempt to increase his chances of escaping the area, but it was useless.

In a matter of seconds, the second Tsuchikage also died

All of this was seen by Gin on air. 

Seeing that the two kages who would die in the canon would die, and the other two kages who survived until the third ninja war would live, Gin wondered if this was the force of destiny. 

But he didn't dwell on the matter and promised to protect his clan. 

In the canon, the Uzumaki clan would be annihilated leaving few scattered survivors, but now that he saved them, he knew that destiny is not written in stone. 

As long as he is present, the Uzumaki clan will stand. 

After making sure that all enemy shinobi in the area were dead, Gin planned to retreat. 

Of course, some of the shinobi from the 4 villages survived, and shinobi from other forces were here to spy on the event. 

The shinobi from the 5 villages who survived were those who were outside Gin's attack area from the beginning. 

These ninjas were here to capture any Uzumaki who escaped or to give advance warning of the appearance of enemies, such as the hidden blade. 

Gin didn't kill them because he wanted what happened here to be known throughout the world and for them to return to their villages to spread fear about the Uzumaki clan. 

Knowing that these shinobi had witnessed his power, Gin gave them one last look before disappearing. 

All these shinobi who witnessed everything stood with their bodies stiff and backs sweating after witnessing such an event. 

At first they felt it would be great to participate in a battle like this, but after seeing such a massacre from a distance they thanked all their ancestors for staying here. 

Suddenly, they felt a chill, as if a predator were watching them from a distance for a few seconds. 

This chill woke them up and they all turned around to return to their villages and countries. 

Everyone should know that they shouldn't mess with the Uzumaki clan.
