Chapter 189 - 181

Despite the agony of losing an arm, Homura Mitokado kept his eyes locked on Uchiha Nanaya, refusing to let his guard down.

Everything had happened so suddenly.

And now—

Divine Ice!

With a single glance, Nanaya's Mangekyō Sharingan flared, and the area surrounding Homura was instantly engulfed in ice and snow.

In that moment—

Homura froze—not just physically, but mentally.

"T-This kid… He's using it again?!"

This shouldn't be possible.

Even the most powerful ninja needed time between chakra-heavy abilities.

But Nanaya had unleashed Divine Ice without any delay.

"No one… no one can fight against this!"

Homura's End

As for Nanaya, his control over Divine Ice had become effortless.

His gaze locked onto Homura's exact position, his precision now flawless.

With only one arm left, Homura was far slower than before.

This time—

He couldn't escape.

All he could do was watch helplessly as his body froze solid.

Then—

Crack!

In an instant, his frozen form shattered into countless shards, scattering across the ground.

Not a single bone remained.

Just like that—

One of Konoha's highest-ranking elders, a veteran from the era of the Third Hokage, was gone.

And with his death—

Nanaya had mastered Divine Ice completely.

Koharu's Fate

With Homura dead, what point was there in sparing Koharu?

She had no use anymore.

She could follow her old friend into the afterlife.

Divine Ice!

Nanaya's Mangekyō Sharingan flickered toward the fallen Koharu Utatane.

Click, click—

Her body froze instantly.

Then—

Crack!

She shattered just as easily.

The Fall of Konoha's Elders

And just like that—

Konoha's two most influential advisors had met their humiliating end.

For decades, they had controlled Konoha's politics.

They had played their games from the shadows, manipulating leaders, making decisions without consequence.

And yet, they chose the wrong person to betray.

Their biggest mistake was treating Uchiha Nanaya as nothing more than a pawn—

A sacrificial piece in their political games.

And now—

They were dead, reduced to nothing but fragments of ice.

They had lived long lives—too long, in fact.

But in the end, they never even realized the truth.

Because if not for Nanaya, the Third Hokage might have never died.

It had been Nanaya who secretly led Orochimaru to Konoha.

The Third Hokage's death had already been written in fate—

Nanaya had simply sped up the timeline.

Now, with Konoha's old relics removed, only Danzo and Root remained.

Tsunade's Reaction

Tsunade approached, a smirk on her face.

"Brat, I just realized something…"

"You're way stronger than before!"

Nanaya grinned.

"Of course! If I wasn't, I wouldn't have survived Cloud Shinobi's trap!"

Humility?

Not a chance.

Dealing with the Aftermath

Then, Tsunade frowned slightly.

"But how exactly are we supposed to explain the deaths of Homura and Koharu to the village?"

Nanaya chuckled.

"That's not my problem—that's your problem, Lord Hokage."

"Hmph—!"

Tsunade rolled her eyes.

He gets to kill whoever he wants, and then I have to clean up the mess?

That's not how this works!

He's having fun, and I'm stuck dealing with the consequences?!

"You're happy, but I'm very unhappy!"

Nanaya's Solution

But Nanaya wasn't heartless.

He offered three simple solutions:

Option 1: Do Nothing.

Just let them disappear.

Honestly, no one in the village even cared about them.

With their bodies turned to ice, there wouldn't even be any remains to investigate.

Option 2: Frame Them.

Charge them with treason.

They had, after all, conspired with Cloud Shinobi behind Konoha's back.

There was evidence—and no one would object to their execution.

Option 3: I'll Think of Something Later.

Tsunade stared blankly.

"You didn't even finish thinking of a third plan?!"
