A heavy silence fell over the battlefield.
Yamato, who had been about to say sothing when Shin declared his target was the Nine-Tails, now didn't dare speak or move. Shin's aura was too scary—he could intimidate everyone with his re presence.
"DIE!" Kushina produced a kunai and threw it at Sasuke Uchiha.
In Kushina's view, anyone who attacked her man deserved to die. This was a capital offense, even more serious than attacking her.
CLANG!
Orochimaru's Kusanagi Blade deflected Kushina's kunai, saving Sasuke Uchiha's life.
It couldn't be helped—Sasuke's life had to be saved. With the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan almost within reach, how could Orochimaru give up now??
"Orochimaru, what do you think you're doing?" Kushina questioned Orochimaru, her face radiating murderous intent.
"Kushina… please… give so face…" Orochimaru forced himself to say to Kushina.
"" Kushina declared.
'What face do you have?' She unleashed the Sage Art: Gate of the Great God. A red torii gate descended from the sky, suppressing Orochimaru.
This technique could even suppress the Ten-Tails—even the reanimated Madara Uchiha had been restrained by it, let alone Orochimaru. Using the Gate of the Great God to suppress Orochimaru was practically overkill.
"I've disliked you for a long ti—" Kushina couldn't help but say.
Orochimaru felt helpless.
After being suppressed by the Gate of the Great God, Orochimaru found his chakra completely immobilized; he couldn't do anything. If Kushina really wanted to kill Sasuke Uchiha, he couldn't stop her.
"Shin, should we kill this guy or not?" Kushina pointed at Sasuke Uchiha and asked Shin.
"Hmm, kill him." Shin wasn't rciful.
Sasuke Uchiha attacking him without reason—if he didn't kill him, anyone would think they could challenge Shin with impunity!
The last ti Naruto Uzumaki attacked him, Shin had spared him because he had half Uzumaki blood.
But Sasuke Uchiha—he had no connection to Shin whatsoever.
Fear flickered in Sasuke Uchiha's eyes.
'Am I really going to die?' Facing death, everyone feels fear. Moreover, his revenge was unfulfilled—he hadn't avenged himself against Itachi Uchiha yet. Sasuke Uchiha certainly didn't want to die.
But whether you want to die or not isn't up to you. If Shin wanted him dead, could Sasuke Uchiha survive?
Besides, Shin was also doing this as an experint.
After killing Sasuke Uchiha, would the Sage of Six Paths save him? If he did intervene to save Sasuke Uchiha, then he would be completely exposed, and Shin could then deal with the Sage of Six Paths.
Regardless, let's try it first. Without needing Kushina to act, Shin took out his Kusanagi Blade and pierced Sasuke Uchiha's heart with a single thrust.
Filled with unwillingness and resentnt, Sasuke Uchiha's life faded. His eyes remained wide open, dying with grievances.
Actually, the reason Sasuke Uchiha attacked Shin was because he wanted to use Shin, the strongest in the Shinobi world, to test his own limits—
—If he could defeat Shin Uzumaki, it ant his strength definitely surpassed that man, and he could then get his revenge. But he never expected this test would lead to his own demise...

"System, I killed one of the main characters of Naruto. Aren't you going to give sothing??" Shin asked the System ntally after killing Sasuke Uchiha.
[The System only issues missions and provides annual rewards. There will be no other indications.]
The System made it clear. It hadn't issued a mission to kill Sasuke Uchiha, so naturally, there would be no reward for killing him.
Besides, Sasuke Uchiha, even at full strength, was at most an Elite Jonin.
What reward could there be for killing soone of that level? As for Sasuke Uchiha being a protagonist? Sorry, the System didn't recognize any "Protagonist."
"I see." Shin hadn't expected any reward anyway.
"ROARRRRRRRRRR!"
A beastly roar sounded.
Naruto Uzumaki, with eight tails erupted, on the verge of a full Tailed Beast transformation, charged over.
Seeing Shin kill Sasuke Uchiha, Naruto Uzumaki completely lost his sanity, attacking Shin madly.
"The Nine-Tails' power?" Shin glanced over, then grabbed Naruto Uzumaki's neck with one hand, suppressing all of the Nine-Tails's power back into the seal.
"Co out—" Shin looked at the now unconscious Naruto Uzumaki, then broke Naruto's Tailed Beast seal and extracted the Nine-Tails.
The extracted the Nine-Tails roared repeatedly, continuously bellowing at Shin.
"..." Shin only glanced at the Nine-Tails and completely controlled it.
anwhile, Yamato and the others could only watch Shin act. As for trying to save Naruto Uzumaki? Sorry, Shin's aura completely suppressed them, rendering them immobile.
Naruto Uzumaki, with his Tailed Beast extracted, still couldn't escape death. Shin glanced at Naruto Uzumaki's corpse, then turned to Kushina and said, "Let's go now."
Shin then pulled Kushina, jumped onto the Nine-Tails's head, and controlled him to leave.
After Shin left, Yamato's eyes filled with sorrow. He walked step by step towards Naruto Uzumaki's corpse.
"Kabuto, help move this," Orochimaru said to Kabuto Yakushi.
Kabuto Yakushi imdiately ran towards Orochimaru, preparing to rescue him from under the torii gate.
"Yamato-sensei, what do we do now?" Sakura's eyes filled with tears. Sasuke was dead, Naruto was also dead. What should they do now? Sakura felt lost and helpless.
Sai remained expressionless...
Their deaths ant nothing to him. He had no camaraderie with them. Sai certainly wouldn't care if they lived or died, let alone grieve for them. Besides, Sasuke Uchiha was originally his target to kill. Now that he was dead, it was even better.
Yamato lowered his head, lost in thought.
The Hokage had entrusted Naruto to him, yet Naruto had t with mishap. Yamato felt he had no face to return.
———
Shin didn't know what they were thinking. After controlling the Nine-Tails and leaving, Shin stopped not far away.
"Why did we stop?" Kushina asked Shin, puzzled.
"I'm curious... Let's see if the Sage of Six Paths will appear." Shin first stored the Nine-Tails in the Kamui dinsion, then took Kushina back.
He had killed Naruto and Sasuke... Would Hagoromo revive them? If so, Hagoromo would reveal himself, and Shin could act. If not, it would an Naruto and Sasuke weren't as important as he'd thought.
Shin certainly hoped the Sage of Six Paths would save them. If he did, Shin could then make a move against the Sage.
This ti, Shin was betting on whether the Sage of Six Paths would appear.
But regardless of whether the Sage appeared or not, Shin wouldn't suffer any loss.
After returning with Kushina, Shin concealed their presence and observed Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha's situation from the shadows.
