The other side of the cliff.
Tsunade watched the Hyuga Clan ninjas retreating from the opposite cliff and glanced at Orochimaru.
She asked curiously and teasingly:
"Are you not going after them?"
Jiraiya was curious about this as well.
He and Tsunade had more or less the same thought. Since Orochimaru had an alliance with Ingetsu, he was most likely responsible for dealing with the Konoha Ninja outside the main battlefield.
At this moment, Hiashi was leading the retreat, yet Orochimaru remained unmoved. This left both of them puzzled.
"Sigh..."
A hint of resolve appeared in Jiraiya's eyes. He sighed inwardly and secretly made up his mind. He could ignore the cannon fodder below the cliff.
But Ingetsu had attacked the head of the Hyuga Clan, and he could not stand by and do nothing.

Jiraiya could not bear to watch Hiashi sacrifice himself in such a meaningless battle.
If Orochimaru tried to stop Hiashi from retreating, Jiraiya would also choose to attack Orochimaru.
At this moment, even Shizune was studying Orochimaru curiously.

Jiraiya, Tsunade, and Shizune all frowned deeply, unable to figure out what Orochimaru was planning.
"Whoosh—"

The main battlefield.
Relying on Yachihoko and borrowing the Chakra of other ninjas, Ingetsu planted the Eight Thousand Spears Imprint on ten thousand ninjas using nothing but visual transmission.
After completing this, Ingetsu's eyes throbbed with soreness and pain. Waves of stabbing pain ran through
