Chapter 126

As soon as the words fell, the Sarutobi patriarch mobilized all the chakras in his body, his hands forming seals at an astonishing speed.

"Shua, Shua, Shua!"

With swift precision, he completed a fire escape ninjutsu within moments.

"Fire Escape, fire ninjutsu!!"

A torrent of fierce flames erupted from his mouth, propelled toward Uchiha Inahiro with searing intensity.

Anticipating the attack, Uchiha Inahiro swiftly responded, his expression grave as he weaved hand signs.

Despite his best efforts, the water escape ninjutsu formed by Inahiro was unable to fully repel the ferocious flames. A small, fiery tendril pierced through the barrier of water, heading straight towards Inahiro.

Caught off guard, Inahiro could only retreat hastily, narrowly avoiding the oncoming flame. However, even with his swift evasion, he couldn't entirely evade the scorching heat.

In the nick of time, a hand emerged from behind Inahiro, deftly intercepting the fiery projectile.

"Puff!"

Uchiha Natsu, with a stern countenance, extinguished the flame with a single-handed gesture. The force of the flame dissipated upon contact with his unyielding hand, leaving him unscathed.

Witnessing this display of resilience, spectators were awestruck. How impervious must his skin be to withstand such heat unscathed? Or perhaps, had Uchiha Natsu preemptively fortified himself with chakra?

Uchiha Natsu, having neutralized the threat, strode forward, his presence commanding.

Though a shadow clone stood in his place, it remained impervious to the feeble flames—insufficient to breach its enhanced defenses.

Observing Uchiha Natsu's approach, the Sarutobi patriarch's expression darkened.

"Natsu Uchiha, today you'll learn the limits of your ambition! The position of Hokage belonged to the Sarutobi clan in the past, and it remains rightfully ours!"

Though unspoken, the patriarch's resolve reverberated within his thoughts, echoing his fervent declaration.

Without hesitation, Uchiha Natsu raised his hands, prompting the patriarch to brace himself, preparing to retaliate.

Yet, instead of forming a traditional hand seal, Uchiha Natsu's hands remained apart, weaving intricate patterns with startling dexterity.

The Sarutobi patriarch, taken aback by this unorthodox technique, hastened to counter, anticipating Uchiha Natsu's next move.

Meanwhile, the other three senior Sarutobi members engaged in combat with the police team, joining the fray with fierce determination.

Despite the initial skirmish, the scene swiftly devolved into chaos, with Sarutobi clan members rallying against the encroaching police force.

Uchiha Natsu's countenance, once composed, now hardened into a mask of resolve. His raised hands, positioned apart, began to weave signs with unprecedented speed, confounding the Sarutobi patriarch.

In a desperate bid to match Uchiha Natsu's prowess, the Sarutobi patriarch intensified his own hand seals, preparing to unleash a defensive ninjutsu.

However, before he could complete his countermeasure, Uchiha Natsu's technique was already manifesting.

"Water Escape, Water Dragon Bomb!"

"Water dragon jutsu, Let's go!"

With a surge of anger, Uchiha Natsu unleashed a torrent of water, conjuring a massive water dragon that loomed menacingly overhead.

Caught off guard by the sudden onslaught, the Sarutobi patriarch's eyes widened in astonishment. He had not anticipated Uchiha Natsu's mastery of ninjutsu.

Yet, his bewilderment was short-lived, for in the next instant, lightning crackled from Uchiha Natsu's outstretched hand.

With a resolute gesture, Uchiha Natsu directed the lightning towards the ground, where it surged forward with blinding speed.

"Boom!"

The combined force of water and lightning struck the Sarutobi patriarch with devastating impact, sending him hurtling backward.

Despite the patriarch's attempt to shield himself with an Earth Dungeon armor, it proved futile against the onslaught. The armor shattered, leaving him vulnerable to the thunderous assault.

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar, the patriarch crashed to the ground, his eyes wide with disbelief. He hadn't anticipated Uchiha Natsu's unorthodox technique—employing one-handed seals to unleash simultaneous ninjutsu.

In that moment of defeat, bitterness welled within the patriarch's heart. Yet, he remained steadfast in his conviction. Even in defeat, he refused to relent, confident that Uchiha Natsu's ascendancy to Hokage was temporary.

As the chaos ensued, with Sarutobi clan members reluctantly disarming and surrendering, the patriarch contemplated their fate. Though defeat was bitter, it was but a temporary setback in their quest to reclaim their rightful place.

For the Sarutobi clan, the struggle was far from over—a testament to their unyielding resolve and unwavering determination.
