Intimidating Konoha

Tsukuyomi!

Blood and tears streamed down Uchiha Itachi's face as he gasped for breath. The Third Hokage opposite him collapsed to one knee with a thud, his cloudy eyes filled with exhaustion and bloodshot veins, now glaring at him with fury.

"Naruto!"

Hatake Kakashi and Uchiha Shisui are now the top fighters in Konoha. With the two of them working together, plus Uchiha Itachi, they appeared in front of Naruto Uzumaki in the blink of an eye.

"The Third Hokage!"

Countless ninjas from the Hokage Faction exclaimed in shock, but Hiruzen Sarutobi was enraged by the loss of Naruto's Nine-Tails Jinchuriki fell into the hands of the Uchiha, the Nine-Tails' calamity would be repeated.

"Enma!"

With a beastly roar, the Enma instantly transformed into the Adamantine Staff, which grew long in an instant. Hiruzen Sarutobi grasped the other end and gave it a sharp shake, creating a dazzling display that forced Kakashi and Shisui, who were about to approach Naruto Uzumaki, to retreat.

Although Hiruzen Sarutobi was old, he was still extremely fierce when he suddenly unleashed his power. He Adamantine Staff great power and even forced back the combined attack of the three despite his exhausted body.

However, the next moment Hatake Kakashi, who was holding a Kunai block the Adamantine Staff, changed his expression under this great force, and his body suddenly turned into a wisp of white smoke.

Shadow Clone!

Earth Release: Cracked Fang

Suddenly, the earth cracked open, and Hatake Kakashi's figure burst out of the ground. In the instant he grabbed Naruto Uzumaki, he simultaneously clenched his other hand, revealing a Steel Wire.

Using the Steel Wire for support, Hatake Kakashi carried Naruto Uzumaki and fled quickly into the distance. However, the next moment, a familiar hissing sound rang out, and Kakashi's expression suddenly changed as he carried Naruto.

In the instant he looked down, he saw that the Explosive Tag inside Naruto Uzumaki's collar were hissing and burning. More importantly, Naruto was wearing clothes, no longer looked like a human at all; he was clearly a monkey.

Boom!

"Kakashi!"

A huge explosion rang out, and instantly two distinct forces appeared on the battlefield.

On one side were the elite ninjas of the Konoha Military Police Force, who had just taken control of six departments in Konoha, and they were all staring intently at the other side.

On the other side was the Third Hokage's faction, which also had a considerable number of members, including many elite members of the Anbu and Root. However, most of them were injured or had exhausted more than half of their Chakra, and were in a sorry state.

"Kakashi, are you alright?!"

After the explosion, the battle for the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was declared a failure, or rather, it was a scheme set up by the Third Hokage from the very beginning.

At this moment, the Third Hiruzen Sarutobi, held his Adamantine Staff, his cloudy eyes filled with tired bloodshot as he stared at the opposite side. Meanwhile, among the trio opposite him, Hatake Kakashi clutched his abdomen, crimson blood seeping out, clearly indicating that the trap had injured him.

Just like the trap Orochimaru used, no one was prepared for this move. It was just an ordinary Explosive Tag trap, but the Third Hokage had a very impressive record of using it.

The Explosive Tag technique of the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, was used by Orochimaru when he defected, severely injuring him. The First and Second Generation were also hit by this technique during the Chunin Ninja Exams. If not for the Impure World Reincarnation's immortal body, this single technique would have been enough to change the course of the battle.

Rumble~

On the distant battlefield, the Jinchuriki of the Four-Tails, having unleashed his power, was still roaring furiously, and the situation between the two sides was strangely tense.

Hatake Kakashi, clutching his injured waist, broke out in a cold sweat. He almost fell victim to this ordinary Explosive Tag trap!

"Third Hokage, the most important thing right now is to seal the rampaging Jinchuriki. After all, you don't want the village to break out into civil war, do you?"

Despite his injury, Hatake Kakashi remains incredibly popular among the younger generation and is now a representative of the Konoha Military Police Force.

After Hatake Kakashi spoke, the ninjas on both sides looked at each other in bewilderment, especially the ordinary Konoha Ninja, who were completely dumbfounded.

Both sides are on the same side, but it's obvious something's wrong. The Konoha Military Police Force's actions are clearly Armed Coup, and they've even tried to seize control of the Konoha Six Departments.

"Kakashi!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's hoarse voice echoed, attracting the attention of countless ninjas. After all, a person's reputation precedes them, and the Third had ruled for so many years; every time he spoke, he was sure to be the center of attention.

Dressed in full military uniform Hiruzen Sarutobi, wielding his Adamantine Staff, roared, "As the Third Hokage, I now command you Kakashi, to immediately lead the Konoha Military Police Force in the rescue operation!"

"All Konoha Ninja, listen Chunin and below are responsible for rescue; Jōnin will provide support at any time!"

At the critical moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi gritted his teeth and chose the village. After all, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki surge was incredibly terrifying, especially with its unrestrained Tailed Beast Ball, which seemed endless. If left to run rampant, the entire village would suffer.

Although Hiruzen Sarutobi has stopped mentioning the Hokage selection process in recent years due to his advanced age, and has also lost some popularity due to the governance of the Hokage leadership, it must be said that he still retains the Hokage's prestige accumulated over so many years.

As Hiruzen Sarutobi's command resounded, even the ninjas in the Konoha Military Police Force exchanged bewildered glances. Seeing this, Hatake Kakashi frowned, but he still waved his hand and shouted, "The Konoha Military Police Force is responsible for the safety of Konoha. All chunin Genin are responsible for rescue, Jōnin standby."

At this critical moment, Hatake Kakashi remained vigilant, maintaining the advantage of having a concentrated force of Jōnin. In case of any unforeseen events, this Jōnin could instantly suppress the situation.

"Captain Kakashi, let the Medical Ninja treat you first."

After the Medical Ninja finished treating him, Hatake Kakashi cautiously looked around, while whispering to Shisui and Itachi, "Be careful, this is the final step. One wrong move and we'll lose everything."

"Rest assured!"

Rumble~

On the battlefield, Uchiha Yoru's Nintaijutsu was simply astonishing. He fought the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki entirely with Taijutsu, and even showed signs of overwhelming him. Keep in mind that the legendary Mangekyo had not yet been revealed.

This was also the purpose of Uchiha Yoru deliberately displaying his strength; ultimately, ninjas are judged by their strength.

In the original work, it is said that the Third Raikage fought to a draw with the rampaging Eight-Tails, relying on his Nintaijutsu and taijutsu. As for Uchiha Yoru now, he is only fighting against a Nine-Tails Nine-Tails Jinchuriki who has exploded with four tails, which is still quite good.

"That brat! He's a monster!"

Jiraiya, looked at the battlefield with shock in his eyes. "If this brat didn't have the Sharingan, I would have suspected that he was the Third Raikage's illegitimate son."

"Taijutsu to fight Tailed Beast!" Only the Third Raikage in the entire Shinobi World possessed this ability, but the scene before them made all the Konoha Ninja realize one fact: it is indeed possible for human beings to fight Tailed Beast.

It's worth noting that Uchiha Yoru is most famous for his mysterious Mangekyo, the Dōjutsu of which remains unknown to this day. His Ninjutsu and Nintaijutsu are also noteworthy.

However, the Nintaijutsu revealed today alone have already shattered the worldviews of all the ninjas.

Tsunade nearby, said in a deep voice, "Jiraiya, haven't you realized this brat's purpose yet? From the very beginning, this brat has been calculating every step, almost making himself invincible."

"If the old man and the others do nothing, they will face impeachment and a severe loss of prestige. If they do something, it will be what we see right now: three pairs of Mangekyo from the Uchiha Clan, plus Kakashi's Mangekyo, which is enough to change the course of the battle."

Looking at Tsunade before him, Jiraiya remained silent for a moment before finally asking in a hoarse voice, "Tsunade, whose side are you on this time?"

He was Jiraiya stupid; he could naturally see that Tsunade, though seemingly neutral, appeared to be somewhat biased.

Looking at Jiraiya, Tsunade scoffed disdainfully, "Now that you and I are on the old man's side, do you believe that the Konoha civil war will begin soon?"

"As for which side I'm on!" Tsunade's face revealed a mocking smile in response to this question. "Jiraiya, Konoha was founded by my grandfather. Who dares to presume to say that I'm on either side!"

Looking at the confident Tsunade before him, Jiraiya gave a wry smile; he seemed to have found the answer in his heart.

"Is this Nine-Tails Jinchuriki really a test subject of Root?"

Gazing at the distant battlefield, Jiraiya muttered to himself. Through close contact, he had already discerned that this Jinchuriki was strange, or perhaps not real.

It is now visible to the naked eye that this Jinchuriki's aura is beginning to weaken, and his Chakra is also starting to weaken. Logically speaking, the true Nine-Tails Jinchuriki should continuously break the seal until the Nine-Tails is finally broken.

Facing the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki whose aura was beginning to weaken in the distance, Tsunade glanced at him sideways and finally curled her lip in disdain, saying, "Jiraiya, why are you worrying about all this? Now you should be thinking about how the old man will clean up this mess."

Rumble~

With each punch landing squarely, the four-tailed Jinchuriki in front of him roared repeatedly, clearly showing that his momentum had diminished compared to the beginning.

Uchiha Yoru, clad in the Lightning God Armor, was filled with excitement. The visceral feeling of punching and kicking was incredibly satisfying. The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki before him was a perfect punching bag, and one that didn't even know how to use Ninjutsu very well.

As the fierce battle raged on, the Konoha Ninja who had rushed over from all sides stared blankly at the scene, their expressions filled with shock.

The Tailed Beast Chakra began to dissipate, and finally, Uchiha Yoru looked at the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki before him and couldn't help but sigh softly.

"The game should end now."

Lightning Release: Chidori

In an instant, lightning flashed across his right palm, a streak of lightning disappearing in a flash, and the Chidori in his right hand pierced directly into the opponent's chest. However, at that moment, Uchiha Yoru suddenly unleashed a burst of lightning from his palm.

"Roar!"

As lightning raged, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki let out a painful howl, but he was now at his last gasp. His powerful, solid, blood-red Nine-Tails claws struck Uchiha Yoru's body and were shattered by the lightning.

The unwilling roars gradually weakened, and at this moment, the surrounding Jōnin gathered around and witnessed a shocking scene.

"What! What on earth is going on?!"

As the Tailed Beast Chakra dissipated, its true form was revealed, a face that no one recognized. However, judging from its age, it was clear that it was not much different from the age of Naruto, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

However, as the Nine-Tails Chakra dissipated, the boy's blank, lifeless eyes were now empty; he had long since lost all life.

"Lord Yoru!"

Looking at the ninjas approaching from all sides, Uchiha Yoru's eyes, though only gleaming with the Three Tomoe Sharingan, exerted a heavy pressure on everyone.

"Shisui, take this Nine- Root Nine-Tails Jinchuriki experimental subject's body back to the Konoha Military Police Force. No one is allowed to touch it."

"Yes!"

Uchiha Yoru, his body crackling with lightning, proved his immense strength to everyone, especially his terrifying power in hand-to-hand combat overwhelming the Jinchuriki. He hadn't even revealed his true Jōnin Mangekyo, which was enough to silence countless Jonin.

Or rather, from the very beginning when this False Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was wreaking havoc, Uchiha Yoru decided to reveal his true strength as a deterrent when he arrived.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was eager to evacuate people and take charge of the overall situation, while Jiraiya was unaware of the situation and was afraid of harming the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. He was thus hesitant and careless, and a carelessness led to his own serious injury.

The False Nine-Tails Jinchuriki who caused this immense destruction struck the Konoha Ninja as terrifying—a terrifying existence that overwhelmed all the other ninjas.

The fact that Uchiha Yoru made a strong appearance proves that his strength is now comparable to that of veteran Kage Level ninjas, even the Sannin or the Third Hokage.

At this moment, Uchiha Yoru looked at everyone, revealing a powerful aura, and shouted directly, "Announce to Konoha that the crisis has been resolved, but the village must remain silent. Anyone who dares to take advantage of this situation will be killed without mercy!"

"Yes."

At the same time, the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, merely glanced at the battlefield with his cloudy eyes and hoarsely ordered, "All ninjas, heed my command: treat the wounded."

It was clear that at this point Hiruzen Sarutobi knew it was not the right time to start a war. Although the tide had turned against him, he still wanted to preserve his strength.

However, when Uchiha Yoru saw this scene, a bloodthirsty smile appeared on his lips.

"Members of the First, Second, and Fourth Division of the Konoha Military Police Force, immediately arrest all members of the Anbu and Root who are preparing to carry out the Clan Annihilation."

Upon receiving Uchiha Yoru's order, the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, immediately changed his expression. These were elite ninjas from Root and Anbu, all of whom were high-level combatants.

As their eyes met, the lightning on Uchiha Yoru's body continued to flicker, and the Three Tomoe Sharingan in his pupils slowly rotated into Mangekyo shape.

Uchiha Yoru's eyes said it all. His domineering and resolute expression was telling everyone that anyone who disobeyed or resisted would be killed without mercy!

He had reached a point where there was no turning back Armed Coup.

Faced with Uchiha Yoru's blatant Kamui, Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced deeply at him before looking at his own side. The Anbu and Root had already been significantly depleted, and the Sarutobi and Ino-Shika-Cho Chakra, who were capable of fighting, were in disarray.

Finally, Hiruzen Sarutobi a deep breath and fell silent in the face of all the Anbu's gazes.

When Uchiha Yoru saw this, a victorious smile appeared on his face. He raised his arm and shouted, "Uchiha Shisui, Might Guy, Hatake Kakashi... you have drawn elites from various police departments to oversee and investigate this place. There must still be Root Human Experimentation base here."

The blame for the False Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was directly pinned on Root, who used this as an excuse to openly and legitimately order the Konoha Military Police Force to monitor the various clans of the Hokage Faction.

Many of the ninjas present changed their expressions upon hearing the order, but when faced with Uchiha Yoru's full power, as well as Uchiha Shisui, Uchiha Itachi, and Hatake Kakashi's three half Mangekyo, everything seemed so pale and powerless.
