Chapter – 264 Why go to such length?

The sudden dazzling light that illuminated the sky with a golden glow prompted Ryota to raise his only hand to cover his eyes.

At this time, the two hands that have fallen on the ground exploded further splashing flames everywhere.

The sound of the explosion was obviously very loud, and it still lingered within Ryota's ear.

After forcefully adapting to the golden bright light Ryota suddenly realized that the Golden Sword that Kuroto carried was longer than before and it had already penetrated the chest part of the Susanoo armor.

Two cleaved off hands and the chest pierced by the sword reminded Ryota of that night, and he was instantly angrier when he saw this!

After getting the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan (the epitome of power that an Uchiha can have ) Ryota knows that he stands at the pinnacle of the Uchiha Clan, at the same level of Uchiha Madara, and yet he is so helpless in the face of Hyuga Kuroto, even if he knows that his defeat is inevitable, he doesn't want to be so helpless!

"Ahhhhhh...!!!!!"

With a roar, Ryota urged 'his' Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan with all his power such that bloody veins became apparent on the white sclera, but he didn't care and continued putting more and more and more and more… chakra, squeezing out every bit and fragment, his body started to suddenly age, yet he did not care…

What he cared now was to not die miserably!

Followed by Ryota's roar, and the instantaneous burst of chakra, the golden flams that were encasing the Susanoo armor with a protective cloak sizzled and grew violent, raging uncontrollably.

It grew and its form changed, the empty spots from where the arm was cleaved off were now covered with the golden flames that took the shapes of two giant hands of the Susanoo armor.

And it seems that Ryota was not finished with this, his roar continued, and the Golden Flames even covered the empty interior of the Susanoo armor.

Now the giant Susanoo was a Golden Flame giant, and when Kuroto saw such a change, his face sank.

Although not as strong as Uchiha Sasuke's Indra Susanoo, this Susanoo was only a step or two away from reaching such high power, all that Ryota lacked to be able to match that level of power was the amount of Chakra!

But Kuroto knew that even if this Susanoo is not as exaggeratedly strong as Uchiha Sasuke's Indra Susanoo, he still can't be careless with it.

This is because he is more than familiar with the characteristics of the Golden Flame. Kuroto has already done experiments with this Golden Flame and understands this very well that aside from being very hot and violent, the Golden Flames which is actually a special ability of Ryota's Mangekyou Sharingan (aside from the two dojutsu abilities) these Golden Flames seems to be able to burn the Charka itself.

Which is to say, once pure Chakra comes in contact with these Golden Flames, these flames violently react and engulf that source itself.

As a result, the Chakra source will be instantly consumed, which is extremely dangerous!

Not wanting to take the risk of getting touched by those flames, Kuroto instantly dispelled the Golden Sword, then collected all the Truth-Seeking balls in his right hand, to which he further injected the Tenseigan Chakra and then shouted, "Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!"

Instantly, an extremely violent silver storm spewed out of Kuroto's hand.

The raging winds of the violent silver hurricane filled the interior of Ryota's Susanoo, in just a short time and blew away the Golden Flames.

"But… tch, damn it!"

Even Ryota who was standing in the diamond cavity on the forehead of the Susanoo was blown away by the hurricane and its wings were ridden with holes at this moment.

Boom…

The huge Susanoo that could no longer stay in the sky lost control and fell on the sea past the mountain cliff.

As the huge body of Susanoo fell into the sea, it set off a huge wave, and the wave swept past the mountainous coast.

Fortunately, enough, there was no house near the coast.

The reason why Kuroto chose the Land of Tea as a battlefield because he knows that the Land of Tea is pretty isolated and the chances of people of shinobi interfering with the fight will be extremely less, so Kuroto would not have to worry about being discovered by anyone.

Gurgle… Gurgle…

With the Susanoo falling into the sea, the water poured into the hole, and soon enough the entire Susanoo was seemingly submerged into the sea.

Even the golden flames that were again lit because of Ryota's chakra, although did not extinguish, were still weakened.

On Kuroto's side, because of the Tenseigan, his vision was not at all hindered by all the rising steam that was starting to cover the battlefield along with the dust, and smoke.

Seeing that the Susanoo was starting to submerge into the water, Kuroto stopped the Silver Tornado and again drew his right hand as the Gold Sword reemerged in his hand.

And without even waiting for a second to pass, Kuroto waved the sword.

Whoosh…

The Bright Golden Chakra Sword, drew a shining arc, leaving a conspicuous halo wherever it passed and cut-off everything in its path with ease.

And soon it ran across the head of Ryota's Susanoo, and without even the slightest of effort, the sword easily cut-off that head.

Now Kuroto used Rein Wheel Pull to pull out Uchiha Ryota from the broken Susanoo, and smashed him on the other side of the shore.

Boom…

With a muffled noise, Ryota, who was thrown by Kuroto smashed violently on the side of the shore.

Cough-cough… Cough-cough… Cough-cough…!

Ryota was coughing violently, at this point it was getting hard for him to breathe, his cells have deteriorated very badly and it is very hard for him to even stay alive for a few more minutes.

Staring at Kuroto who had an indifferent look, as if nothing went beyond his expectation during the entire battle, Ryota chuckled, "You… are a monster… you know that? And just what kind of ninjutsu do you use, all of them… all of them…!"

Kuroto did not answer Ryota's question, although he still had that indifferent look, he was actually panting for breath, after all, using Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion and Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion simultaneously with such power is also a bit difficult for him, so obviously he was also a bit drained in this battle.

After all, he went as far as to use seven Truth-Seeking Orbs in both the techniques, so obviously there is some exhaustion!

Ryota didn't really expect any answer from Kuroto at this point, but he went on to say, "You know, I was able to notice that…"

Kuroto did not care what Ryota wanted to say, so he continued ignoring Ryota's words, and as soon as he recovered his breath, he immediately crouched down and took out the pair of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan from Ryota's eye sockets.

Ryota obviously did not resist, he knew that this was inevitable, moreover, he was unable to stop Kuroto, both because of the other person's strength, his own weakness, and tiredness, but most of all, because of that curse tag buried in his heart.

After losing his eyes, Ryota kept asking, "Tell me, why did I lose? Was it just because you were too strong?"

Kuroto put the pair of Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan inside a small nutrition tank, deactivated the Tenseigan Chakra Mode, and then spoke, "I have nothing to speak, even before the battle started I repeatedly told you that you have no chance of winning, yet you wanted to experience the painful defeat, and that's what you are getting."

Ryota nodded, then again said, "You are right! But that is not the answer to my question."

Kuroto sighed and spoke, "Unfortunately, this is shinobi world, a world where even the dead are unable to keep the secrets buried, as such I am not going to speak anything that I do not want to."

Ryota sighed, "Maybe you are right?"

Kuroto looked at the tears mixed with blood coming out of Ryota's hollow eye sockets, he sighed and after groaning a little, Kuroto spoke, "Although I won't be telling you anything about my powers, what I can tell you is that the strength you displayed in this battle even with that half mutilated body of yours, I can most definitely say that your overall strength has far surpassed the level of a Kage, in fact, you have reached the level of a Super Kage, although you are not as strong as Uchiha Madara, and Shodaime-Sama, you are still one of the strongest shinobi to have lived in the shinobi world.

The defensive power of your Susanoo and those Golden Flames makes you extremely strong, and I can guarantee that very few people in the shinobi world, whether dead or alive ever reached your level.

Unfortunately for you, no one will ever come to know of your strength."

"So, you are telling me that it's not that I am too weak or powerless, but that you are too strong?" – with a wry smile, Ryota asked again, "Can you tell me your purpose for doing all this? With your strength, let alone Konoha, you can control the entire Shinobi world, no one will ever be your opponent, so why go through all this trouble? Why make me and my brother go through such a horrible experience? Why do you want Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan? You have no use for those eyes. Why go to such lengths for things that are completely meaningless to you?"
