Chapter 182 Five Million Souls
No, it's not immortal, but it can be resurrected continuously, making it impossible to kill!
Upon learning this, the Sage of Six Paths was completely dumbfounded. No—this isn't a human?
Are you sure this Uchiha Tsuki is human? Are you sure this Uchiha Tsuki you're talking about really exists, and isn't just something you made up?
How could such a monster possibly exist!
Even if it existed, how could it possibly be a monster born from a mere pair of Mangekyou Sharingan?
How could he not know that the Mangekyou Sharingan possessed such power?
If the Mangekyou Sharingan has such power, then what is the God Tree?
You know, he dismembered the Divine Tree because he thought it was too dangerous. Now you're telling me that the Mangekyou Sharingan is the real danger compared to the Divine Tree?
The Sage of Six Paths was incredulous!
However, when he turned his gaze to that darkness, that dark realm that had already swallowed up the Land of Fire and the surrounding countries, and was expanding without any limit, he was struck by its vastness.
He tried to extend his senses into the realm of deathly silence to see what this Uchiha Tsuki was all about; however, his senses...
I can't get in!
The edges were alright, but as he went deeper into the abyss where even light disappeared, his power was directly absorbed. At that moment, he understood that Uchiha Tsuki was indeed something that should not exist. Such a living calamity was even more terrifying than his mother had been.
Even if his mother had actually carried out her tyranny, she would have only turned the people of the ninja world into White Zetsu. There would still be living people, plants, bacteria, animals, and the like.
But what about Uchiha Yue?
This is fucking annihilation of the entire world!
"No, I must stop Uchiha Tsuki!"
The Sage of Six Paths immediately took action. His first step was to find the Divine Tree, and then, "Where is the Divine Tree?"
He discovered that the sacred tree was gone!
No, where did that huge divine tree he placed on the moon go?
Not only the Divine Tree, but after the Sage of Six Paths discovered that the Divine Tree was missing, he wanted to pass on its power to the two reincarnations of his son. Then he discovered that Indra's chakra reincarnation was missing. His soul was still in the Pure Land, but his chakra was gone.
Moreover, the remaining reincarnation has also turned evil.
No, how could the ninja world have become like this after he just took a nap? The world is on the verge of collapse and destruction, and he seems to have no power to save it.
His chakra couldn't penetrate that desolate realm at all, unless, just as the Sage of Six Paths hesitated about whether he should break his own principles, rebuild his physical body, and be resurrected, he discovered the prophecy of the Child of Destiny: "No, don't kill me!"
"Help!!!!"
"I don't want to die!!!"
"You damned ninjas, to hell with your world-saving nonsense!!!"
"Why didn't that person kill you all?!"
"ah!!!!"
Desperate cries, angry curses, hatred, accompanied by screams of terror and despair, a crimson river of blood flowed, steaming and emitting an incredibly strong, nauseating stench, almost forming a blood-red river.
Countless corpses piled up together, forming a giant mountain of flesh and blood.
Five million!
Five million people from various countries were massacred, their souls drawn away and sealed by the massive sealing array beneath their feet.
"Is it worth it? Why are we doing this—"
"Ugh—what are we—what are we doing?!"
A ninja looked at the surging river of blood, smelled the disgusting stench of blood, looked at the terrifying Mount Toto, and seemed to hear the echoes of layers of mournful cries in his ears. He couldn't help but cover his mouth, kneel on the ground, and vomit.
Such a horrific tragedy has never occurred in any war in history. Five million people—not five million pigs. Even if it were five million pigs, the mass slaughter would be enough to make any person with a conscience feel unbearable and uneasy, let alone their own kind.
"It was worth it, it was worth it! If you want to blame someone, blame Konoha! Blame Uchiha Tsuki! If it weren't for dealing with Uchiha Tsuki, if it weren't for killing that monster, why would we have done something like this!"
"It's all...it's all Uchiha Tsuki's fault, we did nothing wrong—"
"That's right, they were destined to die anyway. Now, contributing to killing Uchiha Tsukuyomi is what they should do. It's for the world, and it's for themselves!!!"
"We're not wrong, we're absolutely not wrong!"
"It's all for the sake of saving the world—"
The ninjas stared pale-faced at the blood-red hell. Even for these ruthless killers, the sight was terrifying.
The pressure was unbearable, and some of these ninjas, unable to cope with the stress, committed suicide.
This is not simply a massacre, but a massacre for the souls!
Through their research on Hiruzen Sarutobi, they developed a special technique for fusing souls together.
By fusing a massive amount of souls and subjecting them to special processing, they ultimately created a weapon capable of destroying souls.
All these sacrifices were worthwhile in the eyes of Otsutsuki Isshiki. He didn't care about the lives of inferior beings; he only cared about whether his plan could succeed.
That's right, Isshiki Otsutsuki didn't give up on killing Uchiha Tsuki; he still had his sights set on those Mangekyou Sharingan eyes that could evolve and elevate a person.
He was still incredibly envious, and he believed he had found a way to kill Uchiha Tsuki.
He definitely needed a weapon that could completely annihilate the soul, especially after learning about Cixian's ideas, and especially after the noble rulers realized that a large population was needed to forge a powerful weapon.
In the past, they would never have agreed to this. Although they were not human, they were not insane.
But now everything is different. It's just a small population. They're going to die anyway, and the world is going to be destroyed. If they want it, they can take it. As long as we nobles aren't sacrificed, a few lowly commoners can just die.
As long as we can kill Uchiha Tsuki and save the world, these lowly people, unless they all die, will grow back like weeds.
Five million?
Is five million too little?
How about ten million? Twenty million is also fine. The ninja world is a world with hundreds of millions of people.
Even Ōtsutsuki Isshiki felt that these nobles were somewhat out of place!
