Several battle groups have already devastated the Death Forest beyond recognition.
"Truly worthy of being a living legend in the Shinobi World..."
Shisui was somewhat disheveled, with a hole in his shoulder from a Kunai and several Senbon on his body.
The dark blue combat uniform was stained with blood.
Ninjas are not static machines.
Having faced Shisui's first challenge, they had already considered how to limit the Flying Thunder God Technique.
They wouldn't show Shisui any mercy just because they were afraid of Kagami Uchiha.
They've come to our doorstep; are we just going to stand there and wait to be slaughtered?
Nagato was willing to let Kakashi go time and time again because Kakashi posed no threat to their lives.
Even when Hashirama Senju was invincible, countless ninjas still tried to assassinate him.
Their solution was to seal the Shisui in Amber Purifying Pot.
Fortunately, Shisui was always wary of the Six Paths Ninja Tools from Kumogakure and managed to escape at the last moment.
However, he paid a price; a moment of distraction resulted in his injury.
"Although saying it like that might sound a bit sentimental..."
Whoosh...
Shisui pulled out the Kunai, a smile of excitement appearing on his lips.
"This is the first time I've been injured outside of training."
"Gentlemen... you're quite remarkable!"
Shisui formed a hand Hand Seals with one hand and raised his sword horizontally with the other.
Swish...
Unlike the smoke effects of the Multiple Shadow Clone, each Shisui seemed to slowly emerge from his body.
Gradually, they spread throughout the venue, numbering in the hundreds.
Ōnoki looked at the sensory ninja in the group, "Shadow Clone?"
The sensory ninja's pupils dilated, and cold sweat poured down his back...
Her lips trembled as she said, "No... that's not right..."
"In my perception, none of them showed any chakra reaction!"
"Even the original body has disappeared!!"
Ōnoki frowned.
Without a physical form, it's just an illusion, like a mirage similar to the Second Mizukage?
It doesn't matter, as long as they're all within the attack range.
Ōnoki stretched out his hands.
"Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!!"
The giant, pure white cube encompassed all the Shisui within its attack range!
But what happened next horrified everyone.
One by one, Shisui burst out from the range of Dust Release, slashing at the crowd with expressionless faces.
"It's fake! Genjutsu!"
No physical object can stop Dust Release; even Kagami Uchiha would have to use Severance Release to cut through it.
They didn't believe anyone could survive the Dust Release.
There is only one possibility: these are all Genjutsu.
Clang—
Samui's dagger clashed with Shisui's Sode no Shirayuki, producing a clanging sound.
"No! It's a physical entity!"
She had barely finished speaking.
Killer B's seven swords pierced through the Shisui.
"Bagaya deer, Koumeya deer... Little Samui, they are phantoms that can attack!"
Whoosh!
Samui, and with a Shisui, he drew his knife and stabbed her in the heart.
Bang!
Killer B leaped forward to shield Samui from a fatal blow.
"Don't get distracted during the fight! That's what I taught you!"
Having experienced the trauma of their teacher Blue B's death, Killer B cares deeply for his companions and pays close attention to everyone's well-being.
At the same time, he also had to deal with the siege of more than ten Shisui phantoms.
"Killer B, you are very strong."
It was rare for Shisui to smile during the battle.
"Really? Young man, can you tell me what's going on with that move?"
"Sure."
"Phantom Flying Thunder God Three Styles: Chaotic Snow Moon Flower".
"Each one is an illusion, and each one is a reality."
"Hey, I have to say, he really lives up to his reputation as a disciple of the Fourth Hokage."
Shisui's lips curled up. "A very nice name, it's somewhat on par with Minato-sensei's level."
Boom!!
Killer B unleashed the power of the Tailed Beast, forcing back the Shadow Clone around him.
"Everyone stay away!"
To deal with someone like Shisui, who is highly mobile and uses unpredictable Ninjutsu...
We can only rely on firepower coverage now.
Killer B is going to use the Tailed Beast Eight Twists!

"Alright, Kakuzu- sama!"
Mei Terumi was panting, her tone urgent.
Kakuzu narrowed his beady eyes and put the paper and pen in his pocket.
"Alright."
"Come to my side, everyone. I'll arrange your Ninjutsu attacks."
Scorpion summoned an enormous puppet, looking somewhat reluctant.
This attack should destroy this precious puppet.
However, if I can obtain the Mahoraga Demon, it will be worth it!
At the same time, I felt a strange sensation in my heart.
Does that mean... I'm only left with Kagami Uchiha's leftovers...?
I shook my head slightly, banishing the thought from my mind.
Soon, everyone gathered around the head of the colossal puppet, creating some distance between themselves and Mahoraga.
Mahoraga ignored the group who were poised to attack, acting like a robot vacuum cleaner.
It diligently chopped down the trees in front of it, wanting to search further to see if any fish had escaped its grasp.
"We have the most water-attribute ninjas, so we'll focus on water-attribute techniques, combining them to unleash Water Dragon Bullet, with Lightning Release as support, and Dragon Vein Cannon in conjunction."
"Karatachi Yagura, release your Tailed Beast Ball 1.5 seconds after my attack, then Mei Terumi, use Boil Release..."
Kakuzu quickly explained the details.
Kisame Hoshigaki grinned. "If this were used, its power would be terrifying."
"Kakuzu, what would be a good name for this technique?"
Kakuzu rolled his eyes at him.
"Chakra Shot".
"Isn't it just kneading together multiple types of chakra? Why do we need to give it a special name?"
"Stop talking nonsense, get ready!"
An immense amount of chakra converged on the giant puppet, producing a sound like cracking ice.
The sound of gears turning and the hum of surging energy intertwined, sending chills down one's spine.
The puppet opened its mouth, revealing a sharp metallic gleam.
The air was thick with moisture, and visibility began to wane.
Buzz—
A tremendous humming sound.
Roar!!
A huge water dragon burst forth from the mist, its roar echoing across the surrounding area.
In terms of size, it is already comparable to Kagami Uchiha's Flame Dragon!
The water dragon crackled with lightning as it charged straight toward Mahoraga.
It's like a two-stage firing.
A surge of energy rushed into the water dragon, creating a vibrant display of colors.
After a brief fusion, the azure water dragon was stained black and emitted high temperatures.
Sudden acceleration!!
Boom!!!
They eventually merged into a pillar of light, tearing through the darkness like lightning, roaring out with unstoppable momentum.
It seemed capable of splitting the earth in two!
Kirigakure and Dawn Union.
Chakra Shot!!
——
——
Boom boom boom boom boom boom!
A massive beam of light pierced through Mahoraga's chest, its power undiminished, spanning tens of kilometers before violently crashing into the Four Red Yang Formation barrier!
The barrier itself trembled, even more violently than the impact caused by Nagato's previous attack!
This is the power of unity!
Mahoraga swayed precariously, as if he were about to collapse.
This attack was so powerful that it almost killed it instantly.
It's just a little bit short, it just won't work.
The huge hole in his chest was slowly healing, and it looked like he was about to recover.
Whoosh!
Two figures appeared in front of it.
It wasn't given a moment to breathe.
"Sage Art: Inorganic Reincarnation!"
"Water Release: Hard Vortex Water Blade!"
The waters scattered around Mahoraga became their weapons.
Boom!!!
A massive, magnificent waterspout rapidly scraped away the last bit of life from Mahoraga, layer by layer.
Far away.
Scorpion stared at the white hair and yanked its energy core hard.
Mahoraga...
My Mahoraga...
It's that white-haired Konoha bastard again!!
"Tobirama Senju!!"
His shouts were filled with endless grief, indignation, and despair.
The voice was hoarse and shrill, like the final roar of a wounded beast in dire straits.
