Chapter 126 The Calamity of the Undead Descends, Cloud Village's Desperate Situation
Thunder Country, Thundercloud Gorge Outpost on the border.
"Damn weather, this thunderstorm is even worse than yesterday."
A Chunin from Kumogakure complained, clearly dissatisfied with the weather, but there was nothing he could do about it.
"Stop complaining. Lord Darui and the others took a large sum of money to Konoha, and the village is now undefended. Keep your eyes peeled. Lord Raikage has given a strict order: not even a fly can be allowed into the Land of Lightning."
Another Jonin captain stared at the abyss below the canyon, shrouded in thick fog.
Suddenly, the Jonin captain's breathing stopped.
Three figures walked straight up the vertical cliff face.
"Who goes there?!"
The Jonin captain roared angrily, forming hand seals, and the dozen or so Cloud Village ninjas behind him simultaneously drew their ninja swords.
However, when the three figures finally stepped onto the outpost platform, a bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, and all the Cloud Village ninjas felt their scalps tingle.
These three people... no, they can't even be called human!
Their skin was covered with cracks.
What's most chilling are their eyes, which are completely different from ordinary people's eyes and look eerie.
The two men on the left are burly, with menacing horns on their heads and six fox-like markings on their cheeks.
One of them was holding a huge fan, while the other had a thick rope wrapped around his arm.
"Golden Horn...Silver Horn?!"
The Jonin captain's voice changed tone.
"How is this possible... They are notorious rogue ninjas in the history of Kumogakure! They were clearly involved in the First Shinobi World War..."
"Oh? Do the younger generation still recognize us brothers?"
Golden Horn twisted his neck, revealing a sinister smile.
Without wasting words, he raised the banana leaf fan in his hand.
"Since you recognize me, then obediently die! Banana Leaf Fan - Scroll of Fire!"
No hand seals or chakra refining are required.
With a casual wave of his hand, the divine weapon belonging to the Sage of Six Paths unleashed a world-destroying power.
A fire blade, hundreds of meters long, was generated and immediately engulfed the outpost in front!
"Ahhhhh!"
Screams echoed from the sea of fire.
The sturdy fortifications crumbled like paper before this attack, melting and collapsing.
Seven or eight Cloud Village ninjas were burned to a crisp before they could even use their substitution jutsu.
"Lightning Release: False Darkness!"
The Jonin captain's eyes turned bloodshot as he unleashed his potential at the critical moment of life and death.
He transformed into a bolt of lightning and shot out from the sea of fire, the black lightning striking Golden Horn's chest!
"We succeeded!"
The Jonin captain was overjoyed.
This is the Black Lightning technique taught by Lord Darui. It is extremely destructive and would kill even an elite Jonin if struck head-on.
However, the next second, he saw a scene that filled him with utter despair.
The black lightning blasted a huge hole in Jinjiao's chest, but he didn't bleed a drop of blood, nor did he fall down.
On the contrary, the debris that was blown away actually turned into countless tiny pieces of paper, which quickly flew back to Jinjiao's chest.
In just one second, the fatal wound was perfectly healed, and even the cracks in the clothes disappeared.
"No... immortality?!"
The Jonin captain immediately retreated, realizing that the enemy before him could no longer be understood by common sense.
Golden Horn sneered.
"A boring attack. Silverhorn, it's yours now."
"Understood, brother."
Silver Horn pounced like a wild beast, its speed astonishing.
The golden rope on his arm extended and wrapped around the body of the Jonin captain.
"Let the curse of words begin."
Silver Horn took out the Seven Star Sword, preparing to sever the opponent's incantation.
"Don't underestimate the ninjas of Kumogakure, you bastard!"
Knowing he was doomed, the Jonin captain had made a firm decision. He bit down on the detonator hidden in his teeth and clung tightly to Ginkaku.
The sound of the explosion echoed through the sky, and blinding flames erupted at the edge of the cliff.
As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, the Jonin captain was found to be completely destroyed, leaving nothing behind.
Silver Horn's body was also blown in two, a truly tragic sight.
But just when the few remaining Cloud Village ninja thought they had succeeded in their mutual destruction, the scattered pieces of flesh on the ground—or if they could be called flesh—were scattered around.
These turned into scraps of paper again, which then reformed into Silver Horn's body in mid-air, completely intact.
"Infinite chakra, an immortal body, this is the Impure World Reincarnation."
In a secluded cave several kilometers away, Kabuto Yakushi formed hand seals and watched the scene on the battlefield through his senses, letting out a triumphant laugh.
"Obito-senpai, did you see that? This is the real calamity of the dead! The Cloud Village's defenses are utterly vulnerable!"
On the platform of the Thundercloud Gorge outpost, Jinjiao laughed wildly and with a backhand flick of his fan, a violent tornado was created, sweeping the remaining Cloud Hidden Guards off the precipice.
Behind them, however, remained motionless, and was even more imposing than the Golden Horn and Silver Horn.
Not only that, the man with a huge lightning bolt scar on his chest finally raised his head.
He was also the strongest man in the history of Kumogakure, the Third Raikage. Tears welled in his pupil-less eyes.
"I... have become a weapon that destroyed my own village..."
The Third Raikage was conscious, but his body was controlled by Kabuto's talisman.
Just five minutes after the defenses of Thundercloud Gorge completely collapsed, an extremely violent blue lightning bolt slammed into the center of the devastated battlefield.
The ground was smashed into a crater tens of meters in diameter, and the intruder was also destroyed by the force of the attack.
"You scum, Akatsuki! I'll blast you all to smithereens!!!"
The Fourth Raikage, A, rose from the deep pit, exuding murderous intent and raging lightning chakra.
Upon receiving the desperate distress signal from Thundercloud Gorge outpost, he didn't even wait for the guards to assemble before he and Killer Bee transformed into lightning and rushed there at top speed.
"Big brother, something's wrong. Idiot, bastard, yeah!"
Killer Bee followed closely behind, his eight ninja swords already drawn, but his expression behind his sunglasses became unusually solemn.
Ai ignored Kirabi's rap.
When he looked up and saw the three gray-white figures standing in the ruins, his Lightning Release chakra actually paused slightly.
Raikage stared at the burly man in the center.
The familiar silhouette, the iconic afro, and the lightning-shaped scar on his chest from protecting the village...
"Dad... Dad?!"
Ai's voice trembled, clearly shocked by her father's return. Her feelings were a mix of joy and sorrow.
This tough guy, who was as tough as steel, looked like a lost child at this moment, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"And...Golden Horn, Silver Horn..."
After a brief moment of shock came an uncontrollable rage.
Ai understood, he understood completely!
"Impure World Reincarnation... the Second Hokage's forbidden technique..."
The Raikage's roar seemed to tear the sky apart, and the light from his lightning armor surged to its limit.
"You bastards, Xiao! Not only did you attack my village, but you also dared to desecrate the souls of the dead! You dared to toy with my father's corpse!"
"Even if it costs me my life, I'll drag out and crush all of you maggots hiding in the shadows!"
