On the other side, the moment Might Guy sensed the approaching force, his expression changed. He looked at Rock Lee beside him and practically yelled, "Kill me! Use that!"
Rock Lee was startled for a moment, then his eyes instantly filled with tears. But he knew this was not the time to act on emotion. His gloved hands plunged into Matt Dai's chest.
puff!
Might Guy, whose body was pierced, did not recover his body as usual after being resurrected through Edo Tensei.
Rock Lee's palms suddenly opened into two mouths, and Might Guy's entire body quickly turned into specks of light, which were then absorbed into those two open mouths.
At the same time, Minato Namikaze on the other side also turned to look at Naruto immediately, his face serious and his lips slightly moving, as if he was about to persuade Naruto to kill him.
However, he didn't even have time to utter a single word...
Snap! Buzz!
Naruto's hand, covered in bone armor, already left afterimages as it pressed against Minato's dazed face. The power surging from his hand engulfed Minato, disappearing into Naruto's body.
In the blink of an eye, the battlefield situation changed once again.
On the allied side, Hashirama Senju, Rasa Senju, and Tobirama Senju were controlled by Orochimaru and stood on the opposite side with Madara Uchiha, while the four Espada watched coldly.
"So..."
Above the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, Orochimaru spread his arms wide, as if to embrace the chaos he himself had created, a maniacal grin spreading across his face: "Let this wind blow even stronger!"
"roar!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Gedo Mazo beneath Orochimaru raised its ferocious head and roared toward the sky, unimaginably vast amounts of chakra surging forth from its body.
"Hurricane Release: Gale Slash!"
"Storm Release: Storm Demon Dragon!"
Orochimaru's hands moved in perfect synchronization with the Gedo Mazo's movements, forming hand seals and releasing the power.
In an instant, the world changed color.
A terrifying hurricane erupted from the golem, spreading wildly in all directions, sending sand and stones flying and peeling away layers of the ground.
Dark thunderclouds, flashing with blinding lightning, surged forth from the Gedo Mazo around the statue, shooting straight into the sky.
In the blink of an eye, the sky was completely enveloped by the churning thunderclouds.
The light was swallowed up, and the world before everyone's eyes fell into a dim hue, with lightning snakes wandering in the clouds occasionally illuminating the sky and earth in a pale white light.
Rumble!
The massive thunderclouds swirled around the golem below, forming a dark vortex that covered the entire battlefield, with muffled thunder rumbling like the panting of a giant beast.
The hair of each of the Allied Ninjas below stood on end uncontrollably, strand by strand, and a tingling sensation spread through their skin.
"Hmph." Madara Uchiha snorted coldly, glanced at Hashirama Senju who was sighing dejectedly beside him, and then the two of them jumped down from the shoulders of the Gedo Mazo at the same time.
"Susanoo!"
"Wood Release: Wood Human Technique!"
Two low shouts rang out almost simultaneously.
In mid-air, chakra surged from Madara Uchiha's body, forming a complete Susanoo clad in Tengu armor, with wings on its back and two swords at its waist, standing majestically.
On the other side, Hashirama Senju clasped his hands together in the air, and a giant wooden figure rose from the ground, with a wooden dragon wrapped around its wrist.
Two enormous figures, one on the left and one on the right, guarded the two sides of the Outer Path Demon Statue. The three of them stood side by side, looking down at the allied forces. The shadows they cast covered almost half of the allied ninjas.
"this……"
The overwhelming power of destruction, coupled with the terrifying pressure from Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, made the nearly ten thousand-strong force appear so small and fragile in their presence.
A suffocating sense of tension and fear gripped everyone's throats, making even breathing difficult. Many of the weaker ninjas even had their legs go weak and were about to collapse to the ground.
Just as the Allied Forces were in a state of panic, Hyuga Kumokawa, who was standing in the air, slowly descended and landed in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi, Onoki, the Fourth Raikage, and others, and folded his wings.
His robes were stained with dust and blood, but his deep blue eyes remained calm, as if nothing could shake them.
"It's the fifth generation!"
"Kumokawa-sama!"
"Commander!"
After a brief silence, the allied ninjas erupted in uncontrollable shouts of excitement.
For them, witnessing Hyuga Kumokawa being killed by the "Shadow" and now standing alive in front of them was the true meaning of regaining what they had lost.
Seeing him appear safely in person at this moment, the sense of relief and excitement is beyond words.
Standing behind Hiruzen Sarutobi, Aoi Hyuga, who had been clenching her fists, couldn't help but take a half step forward and say in a hoarse voice, "Yunkawa..."
She had a lot to say, but when Hinata Kumokawa turned his head slightly to look at her and saw those eyes, she felt that it didn't matter what she said.
Hinata Kumokawa simply nodded without saying anything more, then turned back to look at Hiruzen Sarutobi, Onoki, and the Fourth Raikage.
"Leave Orochimaru and the Gedo Mazo to me," he said.
"Hoo..." Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, as if trying to expel all the heavy emotions that had accumulated in his chest. He was about to say something.
Just then, a voice suddenly came, interrupting him.
"Then we'll leave Madara Uchiha and the First Hokage to them."
Everyone turned to look and saw Sasuke walking over. He was the one who had spoken those words, and beside him stood Naruto, whose body was covered in strange bone armor and whose aura was chilling.
The Fourth Raikage, Onoki, and the others had naturally witnessed Naruto and Sasuke fighting Orochimaru and Madara Uchiha, and their gazes toward the two now were clearly somewhat complicated.
Of course, it wasn't because of Naruto's status as a rogue ninja, nor was it because Sasuke was involved with rogue ninjas.
At this critical juncture concerning the survival of the entire ninja world, past identities and positions have long been temporarily set aside, and all grudges will be settled after the dust settles.
What truly complicated their feelings was...
"I've lost count of how many times I've said this, but I still want to say it."
Onoki remarked, "Whether it breeds heroes or scourges, brings hope or brings disaster, Konoha is truly a land of outstanding people and blessed by heaven."
Orochimaru, Hashirama Senju, Madara Uchiha, Kumokawa Hyuga, Naruto Uzumaki, and Sasuke Uchiha...
The so-called Ninja World War is almost turning into an internal conflict within Konoha, and the other villages seem more like supporting characters who have been forced into it.
hum! !
Just as Onoki was feeling sentimental, a bolt of lightning struck down without warning from the dark thunderclouds in the sky, its target being Hyuga Kumokawa, who was standing in front of the allied forces below.
However, Hinata Kumokawa didn't even look up; he simply raised one arm calmly, palm facing upward.
The chakra rosary that had been hovering behind him, spinning like a planet, instantly flew to his palm, extended and transformed, turning into a pure black round shield...
Boom!
The blinding lightning slammed into the black round shield, but the expected explosion and impact did not occur. The violent lightning dissipated silently, without even causing a ripple.
"Hmph, what a bunch of hopeless idiots."
Orochimaru's mocking voice reached the ears of everyone present.
"You have no idea how deep the scheming is in the heart of this 'hero' you are currently idolizing and following, or what his true nature is!"
"To be so willingly manipulated by that guy is both pathetic and laughable!"
Upon hearing this, the Fourth Raikage looked up at Orochimaru and sneered without any politeness, "Instead of following the hero standing before you, are you going to follow a madman like you who started this war?"
"Orochimaru, you're about to die and you still try to sow discord. Your tricks are outdated."
Orochimaru ignored the Fourth Raikage's taunts, his golden snake eyes fixed on Hiruzen Sarutobi, and said, "Old man, there's nothing left to hide now."
"My defection from Konoha and even the human experiments I started... are all inextricably linked to this so-called 'hero' in front of you."
"I already possessed the body of an Otsutsuki; he gave it to me. But just after I successfully transferred the power from that body into his own..."
"He killed my assistant, and then you just happened to walk in, and then, my lab, all the records, were destroyed in a sudden explosion..."
At this point, his voice suddenly rose, unleashing years of suppressed anger as he roared, "Don't you think all of this is too much of a coincidence?!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi listened quietly, his wrinkled face expressionless, though his fingers tightened almost imperceptibly for a moment. He didn't respond to Orochimaru with a single word.
Hyuga Kumokawa, who had his back to Orochimaru and was facing the Allied Forces, only turned around slowly at this moment. There was no anger at being slandered in his eyes, nor any guilt at being exposed.
There was only a bottomless indifference, like a frozen lake.
He raised his hand, pointed to the three enormous figures in the distance, and said, "Kill."
"For our fallen comrades."
Those few simple words instantly ignited the anger of the allied ninjas.
"kill!!"
A roar like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashed through the oppressive thunderclouds. Nearly ten thousand Allied Ninja, gripping their weapons tightly, unleashed their last strength and charged toward Orochimaru.
No one believed a single word Orochimaru had just said.
In the truth that everyone saw, Hyuga Kumokawa was just a weak and timid boy from the Hyuga branch family who hadn't even activated his Byakugan.
He had no power, resources, or motive to devise such a complex, meticulous, and ruthless plan to frame Orochimaru, one of the legendary Sannin.
One side is a hero who, through his own abilities and charisma, was elected as the commander-in-chief of the allied forces in this great war, and a leader who, after being rescued from serious injuries, resolutely returned to the battlefield.
On the other side is a notorious traitorous ninja, a mad scientist who conducted human experiments, and one of the main culprits who started the war. His words are completely unreliable, both morally and in terms of his stance.
To everyone else, this was nothing more than a desperate villain who, on his deathbed, tried to sow discord among their revered commander by smearing him with the most despicable lies.
How laughable, how pathetic!
Orochimaru's smile vanished completely, replaced by a manic and ferocious expression, a result of his rage at these fools.
"A bunch of... idiots!"
He grinned, revealing gleaming white teeth, and his voice, laced with rage, came from deep within his throat: "Want to die? I'll grant your wish!"
"roar!!"
The demonic statue roared to the sky, and the jagged protrusions on its back suddenly burst forth with blinding lightning.
Within the black thunderclouds that covered the entire battlefield, countless bolts of lightning, as thick as water tanks, were drawn together, tearing through the dim sky and striking down at the allied ninjas below!
"Earth Release: Ten Thousand Mile Earth Flow Wall!"
Within the allied forces, the Earth Release ninjas immediately formed hand seals and cast spells, causing thick, towering earthen walls to rise from the ground, layer upon layer, to withstand the lightning strikes.
Lightning struck the earthen walls, blasting up countless fragments of rock and scorched earth. Many walls were instantly pierced, and the ninjas behind them screamed as they fell. But many more walls stood stubbornly upright.
Click... Sizzle!
Madara Uchiha's complete Susanoo looked down at the Allied Shinobi Forces swarming like ants, gripped the huge katana at his waist, and with a piercing sound, drew it from bottom to top.
Rumble!
A crescent-shaped chakra slash detached from the blade and cleaved vertically towards the area densely populated with Allied Shinobi. Wherever it passed, the earth was cleaved open, leaving a bottomless ravine.
At the same time, Hashirama Senju's wooden puppet also moved, suddenly swinging out its right arm, which was wrapped around a wooden dragon. The wooden dragon roared and flew off the arm, charging fiercely towards the allied forces.
But the next moment...
Sasuke Uchiha's Complete Susanoo rose from the ground, drew his sword fiercely, and unleashed an equally fierce horizontal slash, meeting Madara Uchiha's attack head-on, colliding in mid-air!
boom!!
On the other side, Naruto Uzumaki also used "Wind Release: Flying Technique" to levitate into the air, facing the roaring wooden dragon charging towards him, with his nine bone tails covered in scarlet tailed beast chakra.
The nine unusually thick and ferocious tails transformed into nine streams of light that shot out.
Click, click, click! Snap!
The incredibly tough wooden dragon had its head pierced through, and its nine tails were violently pulled outwards in mid-air as Naruto did so, tearing its massive body apart!
Almost simultaneously, Tobirama Senju and Rasa, who were under control, also made their move.
"Water Release: Great Exploding Water Wave!" Tobirama Senju formed hand seals, opened his mouth, and unleashed a massive wave that surged towards the Allied Shinobi Forces.
"Magnetic Release: Golden Sand Waves!" Rasa manipulated the gold sand with a blank expression, and towering golden sand waves surged up from beneath his feet, engulfing the Allied Shinobi Forces.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, Onoki, the Fourth Raikage, and others went to meet them.
At the center of the battlefield, Hyuga Kumokawa slowly rose into the air, blue chakra forming an outer garment around him. He calmly gazed at Orochimaru atop the Gedo Mazo in the distance, their eyes meeting.
"Hyuga Kumokawa..." Orochimaru's eyes were icy cold. "Die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the demonic statue beneath him roared, its massive body taking a sudden step forward, shaking the earth, its right fist clenched tightly.
His fist was instantly covered with a metallic sheen, and countless sharp and hard crystals condensed at the tip of his fist. He punched Hyuga Kumokawa, who was floating in the air!
hum! !
The air was compressed into a visible air burst ring, and before the fist even arrived, the terrifying force of the punch had already caused Hyuga Kumokawa's robes to flutter wildly.
Hinata Kumokawa's expression remained unchanged. With a slight thought, the chakra prayer beads floating behind him split into two groups, flying to his sides, one on the left and one on the right.
The next moment, the chakra rosary melted and expanded like liquid, transforming into two enormous hands, one of which was clenched into a fist and fiercely clashed with the giant fist of the Gedo Mazo.
boom!!
Fists collided, and a terrifyingly loud explosion erupted.
The raging torrents sprayed outwards like blades, instantly shredding nearby rocks, trees, and the few unfortunate ninjas caught in the blast into dust, and scraping away a thick layer from the ground.
