Chapter 6: The End of War
"The clan leader is dead! The clan leader is dead!"
Panic swept across the battlefield as the Blood Pond Clan's leader fell at the hands of Uchiha Madara. Chaos erupted as the remaining clan members scattered in all directions, desperately trying to escape.
"Father! Don't let them go! We have to avenge Chisato!"
Uchiha Izuna shouted as he continued battling a Blood Pond warrior who refused to retreat. His eyes burned with rage, his strikes fueled by the grief of losing his brother.
Uchiha Tajima, however, remained indifferent. A woman's kindness, he thought coldly. His two sons were undeniably talented, but they were still shackled by such naive notions as brotherhood. Tajima had survived countless battles, clawing his way out of a sea of blood and corpses. To him, such emotions were meaningless.
Yet, he still commanded, "Uchiha! Listen to my orders! Hunt down the Blood Pond Clan and avenge our fallen! Do not let a single one of these despicable vermin escape!"
"Yes!!"
On the other side of the battlefield, the Kaguya Clan clashed fiercely with the Senju.
"Shikotsumyaku—Dance of the Willow!"
Kaguya Itabashi lunged at Senju Butsuma, his elbow sprouting razor-sharp bone spikes. Butsuma reacted swiftly, parrying with his kunai. Sparks flew as the kunai clashed against the Kaguya's reinforced bones, their sheer hardness evident in every impact.
Realizing he couldn't overpower him in close combat, Butsuma switched tactics.
