Storm Clouds Gather

Lightning Release: Lightning Flash!

Above the passage, Kakashi rapidly Hand Seals, and after Yemo and the monster below passed each other, he immediately activated the Ninjutsu he had prepared beforehand.

A thick, dazzling bolt of lightning shot out from Kakashi's mouth, striking White Zetsu hard like a heavy hammer. White Zetsu let out a painful roar as his massive body was sent flying, crashing heavily into the side of the passage, sending a shower of rubble flying and causing the entire passage to tremble.

Kakashi landed with a thud, Yemo analyzed, "This White Zetsu has abnormal regenerative abilities; sharp blades can hardly harm him, and he has a very high resistance to blows. Taijutsu is not suitable for him either; only Ninjutsu is effective against him."

As can be seen from the battle just now, the White Zetsu was able to heal instantly from the huge wounds inflicted by Yemo's two Kunai, while Kakashi used Ninjutsu to repel the White Zetsu in one go.

"White Zetsu, do you know this monster?" Kakashi turned his head to look at Yemo, he had just felt that Yemo knew this monster.

Yemo then realized he had accidentally mentioned White Zetsu. His eyes darted around, and he offered an explanation. "I saw this in our Uzumaki Clan's ancient texts. This kind of monster, which looks humanoid but lacks reason and has immense destructive power, is called White Zetsu."

Kakashi was about to ask a question when a loud roar suddenly came from the smoke, followed by a powerful hurricane that swept towards them. The hurricane, carrying billowing dust, blew both Yemo and Kakashi away. Fortunately, they reacted quickly and grabbed onto a protruding rock in the passage, and only landed steadily on the ground after the hurricane subsided.

"Be careful, something's wrong with this monster," Yemo warned Kakashi as soon as he landed. How could a simple roar create such a powerful hurricane?

The hurricane dispersed the smoke and dust, and the massive White Zetsu emerged from the darkness with a gait that made the earth tremble, raising its two enormous arms to smash towards Yemo and Kakashi.

Yemo and Kakashi nimbly dodged, with Yemo retreating behind White Zetsu, while Kakashi leaped above White Zetsu's head, gripping Kunai that gleamed with a cold light in both hands, aiming it at the top of White Zetsu's head.

Unexpectedly, although White Zetsu lacked intelligence, its reaction was swift. Its massive arm slammed down on Kakashi with tremendous force, like a speeding car crashing into him. Kakashi was struck hard, spitting out a mouthful of blood and flying backward like a kite with a broken string, tossed about in the wind.

At the same time, Yemo ran behind White Zetsu, his hands rapidly Hand Seals. He took a deep breath, brought his fingers together, and gathered a large amount of Chakra in his throat.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"

With a loud shout, Yemo opened his mouth and spat out a blazing flame. The flame gathered into a huge fireball that filled the entire passage. The fireball rolled in, and the raging flames were like endless waves, with overwhelming power.

The enormous fireball blocked the entire passage, leaving the White Zetsu with no way to escape. The scorching flames instantly enveloped the White Zetsu. The White Zetsu monster's body possessed terrifying regenerative abilities, but that was ultimately a matter of flesh and blood, which could not withstand the burning of the high-temperature flames.

Even the massive White Zetsu could not withstand the scorching flames, letting out a painful, beast-like roar as its enormous body writhed in the flames.

But a monster is a monster after all, devoid of any intelligence. With its massive body and terrifying regenerative ability, White Zetsu broke through the flames and continued to attack Yemo.

Kakashi, who had been thrown to the side, endured the pain and lifted the stones that were pressing down on him. He had just stood up when he saw this scene and immediately took action.

Knowing that Taijutsu was useless against White Zetsu, Kakashi used Ninjutsu from the start. His hands moved swiftly, forming hand Hand Seals, and he slammed his fist into the ground, shouting, "Earth Release: Swamp of the Underworld!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground in front of White Zetsu twisted and turned, and the thick earth instantly turned into a muddy swamp. White Zetsu, a monster without intelligence, naturally stepped into it.

White Zetsu's massive body caused his feet to sink deep into the muddy swamp. Trapped, White Zetsu instinctively struggled desperately, but the more he struggled, the faster he sank, and in the blink of an eye, half of his body was deeply submerged in the mud.

Yemo wouldn't waste this excellent opportunity. He took out a Kunai from his ninja pouch behind him, and blue arcs of electricity appeared on his arm, flowing down his arm and onto the Kunai.

The dark Kunai suddenly glowed with a faint blue light, and the entire Kunai turned bright red under the heating of the electric current, as if it had been forged in a furnace at a temperature of over a thousand degrees.

Yemo leaped up and landed on White Zetsu's shoulder. White Zetsu was enormous, so it was no problem for someone to stand on his shoulder. Yemo raised his crimson kunai, Kunai with electricity, and stabbed it down hard at the top of White Zetsu's head.

The crimson Kunai pierced the White Zetsu's head, emitting a sizzling sound as flesh was roasted by the high temperature. Yemo knew that White Zetsu were monsters created by the Ōtsutsuki, so just in case, Yemo Hand Seals to deliver the final blow to the White Zetsu beneath him.

Lightning Release: Electric Shock!

Yemo raised his right hand, crackling with electricity, and slammed it down on the dagger, which was still half-exposed. The remaining half of the dagger plunged deep into White Zetsu's head with a whoosh, while simultaneously, streams of electricity, reaching tens of thousands of volts, rushed into White Zetsu's body through the metal Kunai, wreaking havoc.

No matter how tenacious the monster was, the double destruction caused by the pierced head and the intense electric currents could not withstand it. After a desperate struggle, it could not escape its fate of death, and its entire body was swallowed by the muddy swamp. When Kakashi withdrew his Ninjutsu, the dead White Zetsu had been buried deep in the ground.

Call...

Seeing that the White Zetsu had been dealt with, Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Yemo then walked over and asked, "How are you? Are you alright?"

"That monster was really strong. My chest is a little sore now, but it's not a big problem. I can treat it with Medical Ninjutsu later," Kakashi said, clutching his chest. As ninjas, everyone knows some Medical Ninjutsu, of course, the most basic Medical Ninjutsu, which can treat some minor injuries.

"Alright," Yemo nodded, then looked around and said, "With such a commotion, those four old guys must have heard it. We can't stay here any longer; we must leave immediately. Since your injuries are fine, let's go now."

Kakashi had no objection to this. Yemo bit his finger and used his blood to draw runes in the air to break the seal.

As the final stroke was completed, the void before them distorted, and a spatial passage, rotating like a black hole, emerged from the void. Without hesitation, the two stepped inside.

The vast passageway suddenly became completely silent, with only cracks in the passageway, several humanoid marks on the walls, and broken ground indicating that a fierce battle had just taken place here.

Not long after Yemo and the others left, the Third Elder and the Fourth Elder appeared. Looking at the traces of the fierce battle before them, the two exchanged a glance, their expressions both quite grim.

The second elder said in a deep voice, "I didn't expect that there was more than one person here, but there were actually others. I just don't know if it's one person or a group."

"Things are getting more and more complicated. Now I'm not worried about whether it's one person or a group, but that it's been discovered by someone who shouldn't have," the Fourth Elder said with a heavy expression, his brows furrowed with worry as he spoke. The situation was becoming increasingly beyond their control.

Meanwhile, in the dense forest outside Uzushiogakure!

All the major Kekkei Genkai families that participated in the destruction of the Uzumaki Clan gathered in one place, and their purpose was naturally for this alliance.

There had been similar meetings before, but at that time each family held its own views and had its own ulterior motives, so after a long discussion, nothing was reached.

But today is different. The soaring red light tonight made many families feel a sense of urgency.

As the red light shot into the sky, the entire Uzumaki Clan was instantly thrown into turmoil.
