Gaara and Kimimaro's Coordination

The wind and sand swept across the land, leaving it barren, with only rocks standing tall amidst the sandstorm.

Beneath the yellow sand, black dots suddenly appeared in the distance, speeding across the desert and kicking up clouds of dust behind them.

"Report! A large amount of Chakra has been detected ahead!"

Among the Ninja legion on their journey, a ninja with a sense of perception shouted urgently, and instantly the entire Ninja legion stopped and became alert.

"The ninjas of Konoha have spotted us! Prepare for battle!"

Leading the group was Darui, Jōnin Kumogakure and a confidant of the Fourth Raikage. As the captain of this advance force, he calmly issued the battle orders.

Behind the towering rocks amidst the vast expanse of Kitsuchi in the distance, countless Konoha Ninja are hidden.

"Captain Gaara, the Ninja Alliance have discovered us."

The Byakugan ninja of the Hyuga clan also noticed the enemy's unusual movements in the distance. One Hyuga ninja, his veins bulging, shouted loudly.

At that moment, a red figure slowly appeared on the towering rock; it was Gaara, the captain of this Ninja legion.

"Gaara, although this is just the enemy's advance force probing, we still can't be careless."

With her calm and strategic mind Temari has clearly become the intellectual powerhouse.

The dashing Temari, holding a large iron fan in one hand, looked at the crowd with a confident smile and said, "Although the number of enemies is about the same, don't forget, this is our home ground, and also Gaara's battlefield."

At the same time, Temari gave a meaningful look. Although Gaara didn't like doing these things, he understood the importance of boosting morale.

With a cold, slight gesture, he raised his hand, and instantly countless grains of sand rose up behind him.

The sand kept clumping together, but Temari calmly said, "Prepare for battle!"

One by one, ninjas wielding enormous scrolls stepped onto the sand. Ira said in a deep voice, "There are too many enemies. I can't possibly take care of everyone by myself. So after I finish releasing my ninjutsu, I will wrap you all in sand and retreat from the battlefield immediately."

"You only get one chance!"

"Yes!"

Leading the group was Tenten, Konoha Ninja. A full hundred ninjas stood on the sand and, under Gaara's control, began to slowly rise into the air.

This time, all the Forehead Protector of the Allied Ninja Alliance were replaced with Forehead Protector bearing the character "Shinobi," representing the Shinobi World. The uniform Forehead Protector also signified that they came from all over the Shinobi World.

Konoha's decision to launch the war to unify the Shinobi World also involved replacing all Forehead Protector with those Forehead Protector the character "God." Although they belonged to different factions, they represented the will of the new era.

"Look at the sky!"

Suddenly, a cry of surprise rang out from the Ninja Alliance, as small black dots appeared in the sky.

Meanwhile, the Konoha Ninja who appeared in the sky using sand dunes also spotted their target, and Tenten, the leader, shouted, "Attack now!"

Manipulation Tool - Super Heavenly Blade Chaos

They were all ninjas skilled in using ninja tools. At their command, one after another, thick scrolls of bladed weapons unfurled in the sky.

The next moment, a barrage of hidden weapons rained down from the sky, and all the ninja tools were covered with Explosive Tag. This scene shocked the Ninja Alliance below.

"It's Explosive Tag!"

Because both sides secretly dispatched advance troops, they simply didn't have time to bring their massive and heavy ninja siege tools to the battlefield.

But unexpectedly, the Konoha Ninja, relying on Gaara's sand control technique, took hundreds of Konoha Ninja and flew into the sky.

"Everyone, launch an attack!"

Darui made a decisive shout and immediately organized his Ninja legion to launch an attack. In response to the aerial attack, he quickly Hand Seals, and countless lasers appeared in the sky in an instant.

Storm Release: Laser Circus

Meanwhile, some members of the Ninja Alliance calmly directed the throwing of Explosive Tag. The goal was simply to launch them into the air and detonate them, creating a chain reaction.

Rumble~

The war began instantly. At the same time, Gaara, who was far away, clenched his fist, and in an instant, the sand in the distant sky turned into a sand ball, protecting the Konoha Ninja and flying rapidly towards the position.

"Everyone, prepare for battle!"

Hoo hoo!

In an instant, countless black dots appeared on the vast expanse of Kitsuchi, and a great battle was about to begin.

Desert Waterfall Flow

Just as the enemy was about to charge, I Love Lai suddenly shouted, his red hair falling without wind, and his eyes were icy cold.

Under Gaara's manipulation, sandstorms surged across the land like a tsunami, shocking countless people.

This terrifying ninjutsu has such a wide range of power that it demonstrates just how strong Gaara's Chakra reserves are.

Upon seeing this ninjutsu, the Allied Ninja Alliance' captain, Darui, coldly shouted, "The enemy is Gaara, the One-Tails Jinchuriki! Iwagakure, prepare to defend! Cloud Ninja, prepare to counterattack!"

At Darui's command, hundreds of Iwagakure ninjas surged out from the crowd, Hand Seals and then slamming their fists on the ground with a loud shout.

Earth Release · Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall

The combined ninjutsu of over a hundred Stone Ninja was terrifying; in an instant, a thick and tall Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall rose from the ground, appearing before them like a city wall.

The next moment, one after another, Cloud Ninja appeared and unleashed their incredibly destructive Lightning Release on the terrifying sand mass in the distance.

The Konoha side wasn't idle either; one by one, the Konoha Ninja completed their Hand Seals.

Fire Style: Great Flame Technique

Terrifyingly fierce flames spewed from its mouth, directly scorching the sand until it turned scalding hot and red-hot.

The secret Fire Release Ninjutsu, once passed down through generations of the Sarutobi Clan, has now been popularized throughout Konoha by Uchiha Yoru.

Although this ninjutsu isn't high-level, it still has its merits as Fire Style passed down through generations of the Sarutobi Clan.

A terrifying Fire Style surged towards the opposite side, and at the same time, Temari, and one by one, Sand Ninja skilled in Wind Release appeared behind her.

Wind Release: Great Breakthrough

The next moment, a terrifying Wind Release swept down, and in an instant, the fire, fueled by the wind, surged and burned the sand until it was glowing red. Together with the sand, it transformed into a terrifying tsunami that crashed against the defensive Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall of the opposite city.

Rumble~

"Attack, everyone!"

When Darui, the captain of the Ninja Alliance, saw this scene, he felt extremely frustrated. It wasn't that they were incompetent; it was just that the Ninja Alliance had only recently been formed and were in complete chaos.

The ninja villages of Cloud Ninja and Iwagakure are alright, but the other smaller ninja villages are too chaotic to manage.

In contrast Three Great Shinobi Villages, Konoha, Mist Ninja, and Sand Ninja have been united for many years and have developed a tacit understanding with each other. While their cooperation may not be seamless, they are not strangers either.

In contrast, their place is a complete mess!

Just as Darui frowned, the terrifying combined ninjutsu instantly destroyed a section of the city wall, and in a flash, a fire dragon burst forth and swept in wildly.

At the same time, there was also terrifying sand, which was scalding hot from the fire and swept down, causing countless Ninja Alliance to wail in agony.

Although the injuries were not serious, the sand that flew wildly from the open wound caused scalding burns on the face, and the sand that splashed into the eyes burned the eyes and caused them to bleed profusely. Not to mention the clothes, many of them caught fire.

"Everyone, form ninja squads and engage in one-on-one combat, charging into the Konoha formation."

Darui was still quite clear-headed; he knew that by using group ninjutsu against Konoha, the Ninja Alliance were at a disadvantage.

Instead, by relying on the ninjas' superior mobility, they can directly infiltrate the enemy formation and create a chaotic melee, thus turning the disadvantage around and putting both sides on a level playing field.

Desert Funeral

As countless ninjas roared and launched their attack, Gaara seized the opportunity to let out a cold shout and unleashed his terrifying Sand Release ninjutsu once again.

The terrifying sand swept in wildly, and this time, there was almost no need to launch an attack; the scorching temperature of the sand alone was a powerful weapon for the Sand Ninja.

In an instant, the sea of sand surged forth, and those who were unlucky enough to be swept up in it were burned alive by the scalding sand amidst screams.

Lightning Release: Electromagnetic Murder

A bolt of lightning flashed, attempting to stop Rai from unleashing his ninjutsu. However, with a soft "pfft," the sand shield blocking his path was pierced through by the Lightning Release Ninjutsu, leaving a hole.

Inside the cave, Gaara coldly stared at the enemy in the distance, who was none other than Darui from the Kumogakure.

"The One-Tails Jinchuriki, don't even think about succeeding!"

Darui launched a direct attack on Gaara, because Gaara's ninjutsu was simply too lethal on the battlefield.

Among ninjas, those skilled in large-scale destructive ninjutsu are absolutely terrifying on the battlefield, and are also the highest priority targets.

Sand Rain

In an instant, a terrifying sandstorm descended upon the heads of the allied forces, as Gaara clearly intended to maximize the advantages of his Sand Release ninjutsu.

"Quickly! Kill them!"

Darui roared, "Gaara's ninjutsu is too lethal to the Allied Forces. This kind of wide-range ninjutsu is just that ferocious on the battlefield."

Lightning Release: Black Spot

In an instant, Darui unleashed a black Lightning Release Ninjutsu and led the Ninja Alliance to charge forward. At that moment, Gaara's cold face revealed a smile.

The next moment, a white figure slowly emerged from behind Gaara. Although he didn't know what was going on, Darui felt a bad premonition and hurriedly shouted, "Everyone be careful!"

Darui's premonition was correct, but he didn't expect—no, it should be said that no one expected—that what happened next would overturn their understanding.

Shikotsumyaku - Dance of the Emerging Fern

In an instant, sharp white bones emerged from the earth, densely packed like a forest, yet this sudden forest of bones was permeated with a strong stench of blood.

"Ah!"

Screams and wails echoed, it was all so sudden and unexpected, such a terrifying range and speed, it was simply a deadly weapon on the battlefield.

This single move Dance of the Emerging Fern, caused heavy casualties to the Ninja Alliance.

At this moment, Darui was enraged and roared, "Damn it! You planned this battle from the very beginning!"

First, Gaara's terrifying Sand Release made the Ninja Alliance eager to engage in close combat with them.

At the same time, the terrifying Sand Release almost covered the entire battlefield, because the sand contained Gaara's Chakra, which also provided Kimimaro with cover.

After all, such a terrifying ninjutsu consumes a lot of Chakra, and with such a large commotion, it's easy for sensory ninjas to detect it.

But with Gaara's sand, things were different. The sensory ninja thought it was because of this sand, and with the two working together, Kimimaro also used Gaara's sand to cause the greatest casualties of the battle.

"Kill!"

After unleashing this ninjutsu, Kimimaro out a cold shout and his body transformed into a cannonball, shooting forward. At the same time, the Cursed Seal on his neck began to spread.

"For Lord Yoru's ideals! I Kimimaro, will be the sharpest tool!"

The cold-blooded Kimimaro charged forward, effectively blocking the attack from the front for Gaara.

With the two working together, the first is a close-combat ninja, and the other is a mobile artillery turret.

Sand Burial of the Great Extermination

The combined strength of Kimimaro and Gaara is nothing short of perfect, one a warrior and the other a mage.

The terrifying power of the Shikotsumyaku) made Kimimaro practically the king of close combat, while Gaara, with his immense Chakra, continuously unleashed terrifying, wide-range Sand Release ninjutsu attacks.

Suddenly, the Ninja Alliance found themselves at a disadvantage.

Upon seeing this, Darui immediately realized the situation was dire and hurriedly shouted, "Everyone, prepare to fight and retreat! Reinforcements are on their way!"

The greatest strength of ninjas is their mobility; even on the battlefield, they can retreat at a moment's notice, unless they are surrounded.

The Iwagakure and the Kumogakure, with the most war experience, did not rush to retreat in a panic. Instead, they used defensive ninjutsu to hold off the enemy first, and then took the opportunity to cooperate with their comrades to take turns covering their retreat.

The battlefields of ninjas are not filled with the sounds of fighting, but rather the explosions of Explosive Tag.

Compared to the Hand Seals required for releasing ninjutsu, Chunin melee combat rely more on Kunai, Shuriken, and Explosive Tag.

Especially the Explosive Tag, which were constantly being thrown out by various means.

Some were hidden in the handles of Kunai, even specially painted with camouflage colors, and were only discovered when they erupted, but unfortunately it was too late.

Ninjutsu can also be used, but it only happens when teammates coordinate well and have a chance to unleash it.

In such a chaotic battlefield, those who can seize the opportunity to unleash ninjutsu are definitely highly experienced individuals.

This was merely an appetizer. The outbreak of battles involving thousands of Ninja legion on the front lines brought news to the command tents of both sides, who all wore solemn expressions.

The rear camp of the Ninja Alliance.

"The battle has begun on the front lines; isn't it time to demonstrate your so-called strength?"

The Fourth Raikage, Ay, clearly looked rather grim, while the Third Hokage Tsuchikage Onoki, calmly watched the strangely appearing figure.

It was Uchiha Obito, who was participating in the Ninja Alliance. Obito, who had one Mangekyo and one Rinnegan, couldn't help but reveal a hoarse smile as he looked at the Tsuchikage and Raikage who were staring at him with dissatisfaction.

"Don't be in such a hurry, because the Impure World Reincarnation technique summons the dead to fight, and there's only one soul. It just so happens that the guys from Konoha can use this Forbidden Technique."

"These past few days, Konoha and I have been vying for opportunities, but I can tell you some good news: I have finally found a more perfect sacrifice that can unleash the full power of all the village's strongest warriors throughout the ages."

Obito Obito's hoarse smile lay a chilling glint in his eyes; Konoha had likely prepared quite a few such individuals.

But did he care? It didn't matter. He didn't even mobilize the White Zetsu Army, choosing instead to remain hidden.

The Shinobi World fought to the point of mutual destruction, but ultimately only one victor could emerge.

Ahem, I'm writing Chapter Two now, please wait a moment.
