How Is This Possible!!

After some intense fighting, Gen'ichi successfully closed the distance between himself and Godzilla to 80 meters.

"Tsk tsk, I wonder when I'll truly be able to wield your power..."

Gen'ichi looked up at the massive creature shrouded in darkness, sighed with emotion, then directly retreated.

When he opened his eyes again, he was already in the tent. His teammates next to him were resting.

Gen'ichi, full of energy, immediately got up and walked out of the tent.

A figure was already there, endlessly drawing and sheathing a sword.

"Hey, Kakashi, you're up early. Still not resting after all that intense fighting?" Gen'ichi stretched and greeted him.

"Gen'ichi..."

Kakashi glanced at Gen'ichi with a complicated expression, then immediately turned his head away, continuing to repeat his movements.

He didn't have any Kekkei Genkai or secret techniques. The only thing he could rely on was the White Fang Short Sword in his hand.

Oh, perhaps this seemingly harmless guy next to him, the one named Gen'ichi, was someone he could try to trust.

As for everyone else, they weren't even worth mentioning. Whether it was Obito or anyone else, they were ultimately just tools to help him complete his missions.

"A ninja's life is about constantly strengthening yourself, then completing missions. When you stop growing, that ninja loses their reason for existence."

Kakashi spoke coldly.

Gen'ichi shrugged and smiled, "You really haven't truly moved on yet... but oh well. At least this change is quite reassuring. If you have any difficulties, just say the word, and I'll do everything I can to help you."

But the only response he got was Kakashi's deliberately averted head and a cold snort.

After another moment, a barely audible sound came: "Mm."

Gen'ichi chuckled softly and began his training for the day, which, put simply, was refining chakra.

As his body grew, the cells within him became more active, allowing him to refine more chakra.

Once I get back this time, I can apply to take the Chunin exams. Everything is simplified during wartime, so becoming a Chunin won't be a problem for me.

Gen'ichi mused. Being stuck as a Konoha Genin bug was truly tedious.

As time passed, the others slept soundly through the night, recovered their energy, and began getting up to train.

But just as the few of them were training...

"Under attack!!"

"Large forces of Iwa Ninja and Sunagakure Ninja have broken through several outposts and are approaching the main camp!"

"Are these guys crazy? They're suddenly launching an all-out attack?!"

Many ninjas looked astonished, then rolled up their sleeves.

Ever since Minato and Shibi joined, they had thoroughly beaten the Iwa Ninja and Sunagakure Ninja on the Western Front. The Western Front battlefield, which was already like a dull knife slowly cutting flesh – with constant small skirmishes but no major battles – had calmed down significantly.

But now, a major battle was suddenly about to break out, which was somewhat abrupt.

Soon.

Large numbers of Konoha ninjas were mobilized, including the injured and medical ninjas, totaling over four thousand people.

This was the entire force on the Western Front.

Orochimaru himself even took to the field, standing grim-faced at the front of the Konoha army, issuing orders and arranging the battle lines from time to time.

"Finally. I was wondering how long you would hold out..."

Orochimaru licked his lips.

Beside him, Tsunade whispered a reminder, "Be careful, Orochimaru. Their sudden attack must mean they've reached some kind of agreement. It's possible Hanzo is involved too... I can't help you directly; I can only stay in the rear with the medical ninja."

Orochimaru nodded coldly.

Tsunade stayed in the main camp with the medical unit, ready at any moment to rescue ninjas retreating from the front lines.

Swish swish swish!

Figures approached rapidly. Some Konoha ninjas responsible for sensing, unable to escape in time, were killed on the spot.

Boom boom boom!

On the Iwa Ninja side, loud explosions rang out wherever they passed. On the Sunagakure Ninja side, puppets darted everywhere, making clicking sounds.

"The Iwa Ninja's Demolition Squad, the Sunagakure Ninja's Puppet Brigade... these are their villages' elite forces, and they're sending them all out just like that?! Are they trying to start an all-out war?!"

Even Minato was shocked. This didn't make any sense.

But war doesn't bend to human will. The front-line ninjas had already engaged the enemy, and war had erupted.

This could also be said to be the largest-scale battle to erupt since the Western Front was established. Originally, the Three Great Ninja Villages had been fighting within the Land of Rain, tacitly agreeing not to invade each other's countries.

But now, that tacit agreement had been shattered.

Boom boom boom!

Instantly, the great battle erupted. Countless figures moved swiftly, and countless shuriken and kunai were unleashed. Looking out, it was impossible to defend against the innumerable overt and covert attacks.

Thump thump thump!

Various highly destructive ninjutsu were unleashed one after another. Wherever they swept, the ground shattered, and screams echoed continuously.

In this chaotic battlefield,

"Protect yourselves well."

"I'll be back shortly."

Minato and Shibi each left a sentence behind, and as always, they vanished with a whoosh, heading directly to intercept the enemy's powerful ninja.

A Kage-level ninja and a flawless Elite Jonin could indeed inflict terrifying casualties in this chaotic environment.

Gen'ichi and the other five immediately gathered together, long accustomed to their squad leader Jonin's routine.

"The actions of the Iwa Ninja and Sunagakure Ninja are very strange; be careful."

Gen'ichi naturally took command of the six-person squad and immediately led the other five, weaving through the front lines of the battlefield.

He himself no longer concealed his strength and went all out.

"Speaking of which, this is my first time truly participating in a large-scale army confrontation. It's finally not just small squad battles like before."

Gen'ichi revealed a faint smile, then began forming hand signs.

Nuclear Release: Radiation Absorption Technique!

Nuclear Radiation, far exceeding that of the past, began to proliferate wildly and spread rapidly, instantly covering the area with a roar, scorching everything in its path.

All Konoha ninja were avoided by Gen'ichi as much as possible, while all enemies were specifically targeted. Anyone caught was mercilessly filled with Nuclear Radiation.

Countless radiation particles surged wildly with exaggerated momentum, extensively destroying the body cells of all enemies and harming their health.

In every instant, a large number of ninja died.

And dying even more brutally than these ninja, though undetected in the short term, were the human cells that had already suffered devastating damage.

Amidst the fierce fighting, after receiving a signal from Gen'ichi, Kakashi, holding the White Fang Short Sword in one hand and Lightning Blade in the other, took the lead in launching an assault, pushing forward with the other members of the squad.

A few minutes later,

"Something's wrong with my body... the speed of chakra production is dropping..."

"Heat dissipation is higher than normal levels!"

"Could it be the Nuclear Release bloodline limit mentioned in the intel, that damn Shiranui Brat! But how can his jutsu cover such a large area of the battlefield? How is this possible!!"

Some Iwa Ninja and Sunagakure Ninja who were currently fighting changed their expressions drastically!
