Chapter 20 - C20 The Eyes of God V.S. The Demigod

~Naori Uchiha POV of the Battle of Ame, Suna, and Konoha~

Naori calmly responded to the dozens of assaulting Suna Shinobi. Her ninjato moving with the grace of a dancer. Her red flower shaped Mangekyo Sharingan glowing flashing at speeds imperceptible to most. Head after head, heart after heart, Naori slashed and killed with indifference. 

'They dare try to covet Soutarou's Konoha?' 

With deep reverence she slashed and cut faster and faster.

'The faster I kill these insects the faster I can return to his side… Oh Soutarou… I miss you… I miss you… I miss you… But you always only pay attention to Mikoto, Kushina, Tsunade… no matter after this war, with a performance I'll show off today… I'll claim you as my prize.'

With a maddening crazy psychopathic indifference in her eyes she giggled as her blade became dyed red and her chakra flow became a visible purple color from all the blood under her flowing chakra overlapping with her blue chakra created the effect of a reddish purple blade. 

'Souta-chan~'

Naori chanted in an increasingly demented tone in her mind as she continued to slaughter and slaughter. In her wake was left an increasingly growing pile of Sunagakure Shinobi corpses. 

The Konoha Shinobi around her that were once chanting and cheering that such a powerful figure was on their side, became afraid after a certain point when Naori's giggling continued for so long. It became beyond concerning… The few Uchiha who had been assigned to protect Lady Mito alongside Naori all had fervent faces flushed with pride for a while, before even they were dissuaded and came to one conclusion. 

'No one with those eyes can be sane!'

The ROOT shinobi grumbled to themselves that "Lord Danzo was correct in saying that Uchiha are an inherently evil clan!" and all of them increased their vigilance of Naori. 

One Suna ninja cursed her and said, "I hope all your loved ones die."

To which Naori went insane and ripped his head off by hand. She then proceeded to bathe in Suna Ninja blood as she sped up and started using Lightning release to enhance her speed while using wind chakra flow on her ninjato. 

Naori imagined herself getting praised from Soutarou before looking back at the Konoha ninja who avoided her gaze.

'Hm? It must be that they won't look at me for Soutarou's sake… Yes…'

'All for Soutarou~'

~Meanwhile Soutarou POV~

*Achoo!*

'Who's cursing me?'

[Naori Uchiha's Danger Rating has reached 9.8/10. User caution advised.]

'???'

'Man I hate Mondays. You know she's probably does too and maybe she's just on her-'

[Naori Uchiha's Danger Rating has reached 9.9/10. User caution advised.]

[Host get good. Please don't die yet, I bet too much money you'd do good.]

'Bet money on me? You bastard!'

~Naori POV~

 As Naori's gleeful slaughter continued. A figure with dirty blonde hair she remembered was from the root named Nono moved near her. Nono shouted out to Naori, "Lady Naori! Hanzo is arriving on the battlefield."

Without hesitation Naori nodded and took note of Nono recognizing it as the same voice that noticed the enemy assault in the first place. 

Sighing a bit Naori's Mangekyo spun rapidly before she snarled and scowled thinking, 'Just as I was getting into a good mood and thinking about Soutarou too. Hanzo, the Salamander… you're dead!'

Speeding up and carving a path towards the largest chakra signature nearby that her sharingan could see Naori killed in such a manner that most of her targets didn't even realize she'd killed them until afterwards. Her genjutsu combined with kenjutsu and sheer taijutsu speed meant she basically had free reign on the battlefield. 

Naori's expression tightened, 'another strong chakra signature.'

'Hanzo the Salamander and Kandachi the Conch Summoner.' 

'Troublesome.'

Forming handsigns rapidly Naori's hand came alight with lightning. 

'Lightning Style: Chidori!'

Moving even faster, Naori attempted to kill Kandachi in one strike. To which Hanzo himself grimily pulled him back at the last moment. Revealing both masked figures. 

Both began forming handsigns, not before Naori cast genjutsu on Kandachi and sent his head rolling to which Hanzo's sickle nicked Naori's cheek. 

Hanzo drily commented, "Ruthless Uchiha girl. Your folly ends here. As does Konoha's reign as one of the Five Great Nations. For too long we of Amegakure have been oppressed. For Kandachi. For the Land of Rain. This will be where you take your last breath."

Understanding just how much of a threat the opponent was, Hanzo ripped off his mask without hesitation and bit his thumb after forming hand signs with one hand and slamming it down. 

"Summoning Jutsu, Ibuse!"

Naori frowned and responded with her own summoning jutsu. 

"Summoning Jutsu, Lady Katsuyu!"

Using nearly fifty percent of her remaining chakra in one go Naori summoned the green slug and immediately ordered Katsuyu to spray her acid all over the Ame troops and Hanzo. To which Hanzo responded in kind. To which Naori shrugged it off and had a chunk of Katsuyu detach and slither into her armor and help her combat the poison. Putting on a mask Naori shot off a flare and flickered at her highest speed right on top of Ibuse. Immediately engaging Hanzo. 

Hanzo didn't bother making further commentary realizing Naori viewed her as a pest only rasping, "You dare mock the Demigod?"

Forcing his eyes shut Hanzo used his four senses and sensory technique to lock onto Naori's chakra. His chained sickle screamed through the air at beyond the sound barrier speeds. Naori on the other turned more and more annoyed as Hanzo avoided her gaze repeatedly, showing combat experience well beyond any normal shinobi. Naori noticed something as Hanzo kept breathing and her Mangekyo swirled as if something activated. The two clashed ferociously. Naori turned grimmer and grimmer by the moment as she realized without his eyes and even with her sharingan she was still on the weaker side of the clash between the two. Forcing Hanzo back she rapidly formed handsigns and spat out a massive column of dragon shaped fire. 

'Fire Style: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet'

To which Hanzo calmly responded with four handsigns

'Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet'

Three massive water dragons empowered by the rainy terrain formed and slammed through Naori's singular fire dragon as if it were child's play. Naori's expression turned more and more grim. 

'Hanzo! You dare make me look back infront of Konoha Shinobi? You dare make me bad infront of Soutarou's people? It's all Soutarou's, it's all rightfully his. How can I lose?'

Naori's eye bled as she suddenly teleported to Hanzo's side and slashed through his chest partially. As Hanzo even on instinct evaded what should have been a killing blow.

'You dare evade? No! You'll die. You'll pay. You'll die. I'll kill you. Anyone who stands in my way for Soutarou… They'll all DIE!'

Her Mangekyo spun faster and faster. Just then Hanzo grinned and formed the tiger handsign.

'Fire Style: Exploding Flame Formation'

Explosive tags attempted to swarm Naori. Only for them to phase right through causing Hanzo's expression to darken as he then breathed out as much poison as possible only for Naori to ignore it completely and continue targeting him physically. 

Again Naori reappeared behind Hanzo slashing at him, unfortunately for her Hanzo much more aware this time countered her strike and even managed to counterattack only for his attack to fail again. 

Hanzo grimly asked, "How can you use Genjutsu to appear physically? I do not believe the Mangekyo Sharingan can give such absurd abilities to make Genjutsu a reality."

Naori laughed manically and muttered, "Genjutsu? Yes it is… it's all for Soutarou. With my ocular eyes I can make reality however I wish it to be... Soutarou can always be just mine. Mine! So you need to die. Die. Die!"

Naori rambled dementedly. 

Hanzo's eyebrows scrunched and his face blacked as he mumbled, "Insane Uchiha Girl. I'll send Soutarou Senju on his way after you. May you join him in hell."

Naori's eyes lit up saying, "You want me to be with Soutarou too?"

Hanzo's face turned puzzled, "No I want to kill him along with you."

Naori said, "You're so nice wanting me and Soutarou and me to share a coffin."

Hanzo paused for a moment and said, "As you wish then. On your way you go."

Naori said, "You'll kill yourself so I can go home?"

Hanzo coughed repeatedly and he said, "Insane girl I want to kill you!"

Naori's expression hardened and she growled, "Only Soutarou can target my life!"

Hanzo charged her in his annoyance, yet in that short moment he had opened his eyes towards Naori. And in that split second Naori's eyes had swirled momentarily before Hanzo snapped them shut and riled his chakra aggressively, realizing that this girl was acting even more demented on purpose to throw him off. Unfortunately for Hanzo, that instant of riling up his chakra led to Naori regaining the momentum. She slammed her hand on the ground. While simultaneously four clones shot off of her. 

'Shadow Clone Jutsu!'

'Earth Style: Earth Rampart!'

'Earth Style: Earth Flow Spears'

Jumping atop the rampart Naori supercharged her chakra as much as she could and funneled it into one Jutsu. 

'Fire Style: Majestic Destroyer Flame'

A sea of flame parted in front of Naori creating a thick mist. 

Hanzo on the other hand cursed repeatedly at Naori's shameless methods of creating a wall while forming the Earth Flow Spears invertedly so they pointed toward the wall essentially pinning him there. With a slash of sickle he broke through, not before a massive sea of flame crashed towards him. Gritting his teeth he sent out chakra to send a message and quickly formed a wall of water.

'Water Style: Water Formation Wall'

Hanzo realizing that even the water formation wall wouldn't hold, quickly formed handsigns.

'Earth Style: Hiding in Rock Technique'

Slipping into the earth Hanzo relinquished control of the water wall. Causing a massive amount of water to evaporate and the rain to stop for a moment.

Naori's eyes glinted. 

'Even before that ROOT girl said anything I knew this old coot was watching, acting as insane as I did was a ruse to get his guard off momentarily. This strategy comes straight from Soutarou, as he said, even in battle one must partake in the Dao of Shamelessness! And now the icing on the cake…'

'Lightning Style: Chidori'

'This jutsu Soutarou made is ironically better for Uchiha than any other's… though technically Soutarou's part Uchiha too… Still with my Mangekyo aiming this at Hanzo who's hiding and preparing to strike at me is all too easy and I want him to attack. Let's see if you dare scar the skin I maintain so perfectly just for Soutarou again!' 

At the moment a giant Salamander's mouth burst out of the ground aiming to swallow Naori whole and Hanzo appeared right beside her 

'As expected.'

The lightning shot into the sky causing Hanzo's eyes to flicker in confusion before he pressed his attack as Naori used her legs in basically the splits to hold on the Salamander's Teeth from chomping down on her. 

'Just a little… little more…'

As the Salamander finally managed to close its teeth a bit and Naori was forced to use its teeth as a spring board to jump into the air, Hanzo smiled arrogantly. Before a massive lightning dragon formed across the entire battlefield. And Naori's smile turned wicked and she screamed in victory, "LIGHTNING STYLE: KIRIN!"

Hanzo's eyes turned into slits as he then jumped into Ibuse's mouth and attempted Ibuse burrow into the ground. Or at least it attempted to before the Lightning Dragon slammed into Ibuse at such a high speed and strength that in mere moments it was absolutely electrified and destroyed. The light actually physically destroyed most of Ibuse and even electrified its insides leading to a plume of smoke. And started a large fire that was quickly put out by the rain. Once the remnants cleared away, it revealed a charred and barely alive Hanzo. Before that it turned into water. Causing Naori's eyes to widen as a sickle pierced through her chest. She spat out blood as blood poured out of her. 

Hanzo said, "Stand proud Naori Uchiha, you are strong. Unfortunately I knew I'd win from the very moment you began using this jutsu. If you seriously thought the five great nations didn't have spies in Konoha and that we didn't already analyze Soutarou Senju's personal jutsu. Then you are beyond stupid. Though I must say today's inflicts a high toll."

Hanzo glanced at the number dead Ame Shinobi and Kandachi before shaking his had

Naori coughed before asking, "If you and Mito Uzumaki fought, would you lose?"

Hanzo turned puzzled, but replied, "No. I'd win."

Hanzo's frizzled appearance and bleeding arms and legs portrayed a hard fought win he grimaced and then watched as Naori Uchiha's body collapsed

A ninjato sliced through his shoulder as Naori's former dead form dissipated. Revealing her bleeding right eye. Hanzo in horror attacked only for his sickle to rebound against a purple chakra skeletal frame. The frame quickly gained muscles and then armor resulting in a massive purple armor half giant that was nearly fifteen stories tall (1). The armored giant formed a giant bow and shot an arrow almost instantaneously at Hanzo with Naori saying in a smirk to Hanzo, "If you could not defeat me even in spite of my technique… you are not even a half as good as Mito Uzumaki. Now it's time to say goodbye to this world Hanzo, the Demigod. In the Eyes of a God even a Demigod is mortal afterall."

Forming a chakra sword and slashing through the mountainous terrain Naori destroyed the entire area. Leaving nothing behind. 

'Tsk. He ran. Old coot… No matter, next time Lady Mito won't allow even his ashes to survive.'
