Naruto: The Beautiful Uchiha is Actually Me?

Chapter 100 Where do people go after they die?

Where do people go after they die?

The answer is Pure Land.

This is a common understanding among everyone in the ninja world. Even if no one knows exactly when this idea originated, the process of a person's soul entering the Pure Land after death to await reincarnation has become deeply ingrained in people's minds.

Moreover, the Pure Land is indeed an objectively existing plane of existence. Death is not the end, but rather the beginning of the next chapter...

"Uchiha Tajima!!!"

At this moment, Butsuma had gone mad. He could not accept that Tajima's life force, which was like a candle flickering in the wind, could still unleash such fighting power at such a critical moment.

Seeing the golden straight sword, seemingly capable of cleaving a mountain, flying towards his face, Buddha, without a second thought, immediately began rapidly forming hand seals...

"Earth Release! Ten Thousand Mile Earth Flow Wall!"

boom!!

Rows of incredibly hard earthen walls rose from the ground in an instant. At this moment, all the elite Senju ninjas present began to retreat, including the few people surrounding Kuranosuke, who no longer cared about stopping them.

The commotion is too great now, and the danger and destructive power of the battle are increasing dramatically. Faced with that giant-like ability, a simple tag-team approach is probably meaningless.

The Earth Flow Wall of the Buddha is indeed very strong, strong enough that he can use this defensive ninjutsu as an offensive technique.

However, it only slightly hindered the momentum of that blade, and was ultimately meaningless...

Bang! !

The ten-meter-thick earthen wall collapsed instantly, its cut surface smooth and flat.

"Damn it..."

Butsuma's expression kept changing. He really didn't have any good ways to deal with Tajima's Susanoo. All he could do for now was to wear him down.

Tajima's attack failed, and his already pale face turned even paler. His deep black hair also began to turn white from the roots...

He was severely overdrawing his life force, blood and tears streaming from his eyes. Even though his body was in so much pain that it felt like it was about to fall apart, and he seemed on the verge of collapse, he stubbornly used a knife to support his swaying body.

Limping, Tajima used the blade for support as he slowly walked towards the Buddha's chamber... His eyes were filled with determination, as if he had forgotten everything.

So close... so close!

As long as I kill Senju Butsuma, even if it's just killing him alone! I'd be willing to die with him!

Madara...Izuna...Yotoichi.

For the sake of his three remaining sons, and for the sake of giving the Uchiha clan even the slightest hope and a chance to see the future, he absolutely could not die in front of Butsama!

At this moment, Butsuma's mind was in complete turmoil. He didn't know why Tajima had been able to hold on for so long!

Despite his constant defensive hand seals, Tajima's golden giant repeatedly and effortlessly cleaved through him. He retreated, but Butsuma didn't want to withdraw. He had finally seized this opportunity, and today! He had to completely wear Tajima down!

Tajima was already at his limit. Even with Susanoo activated, he was only sustained by his last bit of willpower, making it difficult for him to kill Butsuma in a short time.

Butsuma didn't engage in direct combat with him at all. His hands never stopped forming hand seals, and with the help of more than a dozen Senju elites behind him, he blocked Tajima's attacks time and time again.

Is this the end...?

Every step Tajima took was incredibly difficult, his feet feeling as heavy as if they were filled with lead.

By this time, Butsuma was already drenched in sweat. He was indeed very strong, but when faced with such an invincible profound technique, he didn't have any particularly useful ninjutsu to deal with it.

However, as the light on the giant's body gradually dimmed, Buddha breathed a sigh of relief.

"Heh, Tajima, you sure know how to surprise people. Your last-ditch effort is quite something... But I think you're pretty much done for. You can't even scratch me now!" Butsuma shouted at Tajima with a defiant smile.

He wanted to crush Tajima's beliefs and hasten his death.

Tajima knew he had reached his limit, but he still held onto a deep conviction... his sons were all outstanding, and he wasn't worried that they would disappoint him...

"Ha ha ha ha!!!"

Tajima suddenly stopped and burst into laughter, looking up at the sky.

"So what? My son is exceptionally talented! And you! You're just a failed father! A failed clan chief!"

Tajima's words were a bit nonsensical, and Butsuma frowned upon hearing them. He didn't know what gave Tajima such confidence. He was clearly about to die, and as soon as Tajima died, he would immediately lead all his troops to besiege the Uchiha clan's territory!

At that time, what kind of resistance can Tajima, a dead man, and his son who hasn't even grown up yet, possibly offer?

Tajima stood there, panting heavily. The Susanoo's attacks ceased, and the golden giant had lost its luster, seemingly on the verge of collapse...

"It seems I still have a chance..." Tajima muttered to himself, a slight smile appearing on his face.

Because at that very moment, he felt an extremely pure chakra coming from behind him... that chakra mixed with the power of nature instantly filled Tajima's body, and Susanoo, which was just about to collapse, immediately shone brightly again.

"Hehe... I'm really sorry, I thought I could manage on my own..." Tajima's tone was still weak and listless, but there was a hint of relief in his eyes.

The one who transferred chakra to him was none other than Kuranosuke, who had sneakily approached him from behind earlier.

The Hagoromo clan has a unique ability to blend into the natural environment, so much so that when Kuranosuke escaped, Butsuma didn't even notice his movements.

Kuranosuke shook his head with a wry smile, saying with a hint of regret, "My strength is limited... This is the only way I can help you. If we lose today, we'll all die..."

"That's true..."

Tajima rallied his spirits, channeling his chakra into his eyes once more, instantly restoring his ocular power to its peak. Even though his body's meridians had been forcibly depleted to the point of being almost riddled with holes, it didn't matter...

"Damn it!" For the first time, the thought of retreating arose in the Buddha's mind.

Seeing that the giant was even stronger than before, he truly regretted not eliminating that wretched troublemaker, Kuranosuke, earlier! Now, even though the situation was clearly settled, he had managed to exploit a loophole.

Not reconciled!

Buddha hesitated for only a moment before ultimately choosing to fight them to the death. The Senju clan had already paid far too high a price for this, even sacrificing their own clansmen, neglecting their own sons, and plotting schemes that were morally reprehensible and dishonorable, all in an effort to eliminate the Uchiha.

Having come this far, how can we back down here?

Kuranosuke didn't bother to look at Butsuma's expression. He truly hated Butsuma, but now he felt the same way and didn't care about such hatred anymore.

But Butsuma still had to die, for the sake of his son... Although he was still young, he was a good boy... Even if he died, Tajima's youngest son would surely treat him well, right?

All his obsessions were transformed into chakra. At this point, he even began to overdraw his own life force, continuously supplying Tajima with his power without spending a penny.

“It’s time to end this…” Tajima once again manipulated Susanoo, polishing the straight sword in his hand.

Buddha was on high alert; he knew that Tajima's strike was his final blow... and he had to block it.

"Everyone! Use your strongest defensive ninjutsu immediately! Now!!"

Ignoring whether the elites behind him would die from this blow, he now had to strengthen all available defenses to completely block this devastating attack.

Similarly, Butsuma was confident that Kuranosuke, that good-for-nothing, could provide Tajima with much energy. Once this attack ended, it would be the death knell for the Hagoromo and Uchiha clans!

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

Buddha roared, his expression ferocious, and began frantically channeling his chakra into his feet.

In an instant, a massive earthen wall, as large as a mountain peak and capable of altering the terrain, rose from the ground, reaching a height of tens of meters, just like a real mountain, completely blocking Tajima's path.

"it's useless..."

Tajima had completely calmed down by this point, and there wasn't even the slightest ripple in his heart.

All his chakra was drained in an instant, leaving him without even the strength to stand. The situation was even worse for Kuranosuke; he had given all his chakra, even his life force, to Tajima. Success or failure hinged on this moment.

"Don't let me down..."

"rest assured..."

The sword in the giant's hand suddenly lit up, and the golden chakra was like a world-destroying divine light. In an instant, the sword seemed to extend countless times, and the dazzling beam of light even shot straight into the sky, completely splitting the clouds.

The sky has cleared up...

"cut."

All the light instantly converged, and a slash that seemed to shatter the void cleaved straight down towards the mountain-sized defensive barrier without any deviation.

bass! !

For a moment, the world seemed to have lost all color and all sound.

...This is a divine weapon called Futsu-no-Mitama, possessing an inherent ability of Tajima's Susanoo... Unlike the sealing power of the Totsuka-no-Tsurugi, this sword can even directly annihilate spirits...

That is, the soul.

With Tajima's final strike, all defenses in front of them were completely destroyed.

Even Buddha hadn't anticipated that this strike would unleash such terrifying power. Despite his best efforts to block the blade's edge, it still nearly cleaved him in two...

Along with the shockingly large wound on his body, there was also a look of horror and disbelief on Buddha's face.

"You...you!" Buddha coughed up blood, unable to even utter a complete sentence.

However, Tajima could no longer answer him.

Tajima is dead... but his expression remains calm, as if nothing has happened.

This strike was the strongest and only one he had ever unleashed in his life. Even if he perished after using this attack, he would no longer worry about whether Buddha was truly dead...

"Wow!!"

Buddha was coughing up blood. All the Thousand Hands elites around him were dead; now he was the only one left, barely clinging to life...

Seeing Tajima lying motionless on the ground, Butsuma was overjoyed. He had finally waited for this day!

"Hahaha... I won! Cough cough cough cough..." The Buddha laughed for a couple of minutes, but then started coughing violently again.

what happened?

Buddha quickly checked the abnormality of his body, but the result puzzled him even more. Although he looked badly injured, he should not have been in any danger of losing his life.

However, he was only puzzled for a second... then a piercing chill erupted from his body.

"Ahhhhh!!!"

The sudden, intense, shattering sensation at the wound site made Buddha scream out.

"I told you... you would die..."

In a daze, Butsuma seemed to hear Tajima's voice. He forced himself to stay conscious and glanced in Tajima's direction with horror, but Tajima remained lying there, motionless...

The voice was extremely cold, like the demonic voice from the deepest hell, frantically assaulting the mind of the Buddha.

click-

A sound like something shattering rang out, and Senju Butsuma, who had been screaming in terror just a moment ago, was now completely silent...

Where do people go after they die?

The answer is not Pure Land... at least not in the Buddhist realm. Under the influence of Futsu-mitsuru, no one can survive.

The soul is shattered, and cannot enter the cycle of reincarnation.
