Warm-Up Over
Rumble~
The meteorite shattered into fragments and fell to the ground, but the Ninja Alliance were filled with despair.
"This! Is this the power of God?!"
The enormous shadow did not disappear; a huge meteorite, trailing a tail, was still falling from the sky.
"How are you going to intercept the second one?"
Uchiha Yoruro a mocking smile, "This one doesn't have as much time as the first one."
Rumble~
The second meteorite, trailing its tail, followed closely behind, and by then the Ninja Alliance had little time left to unleash their Ninjutsu.
"Don't give up!"
Earth Release: Ultra-Light-Weight Rock Technique
Dust Release: Atomic Dismantling Jutsu
Hell Stab - One-Finger Nukite
With the roars of the five Kage and under the threat of death, the tens of thousands of ninja from the Ninja Alliance erupted in fury, unleashing their Ninjutsu in an attempt to destroy the approaching meteor that was about to annihilate them.
Rumble~
Dust Release: Atomic Dismantling Jutsu
Lightning Release: Electromagnetic Murder
In an instant, tens of thousands of Ninjutsu attacked from the other side, and under the carpet bombardment, the meteorite shattered.
"Ninja Alliance, do not give up!"
It was the Ninja Alliance in the distance; the Fourth Raikage, Ay, roared and led his numerous Ninja legion in an attack.
In an instant, the meteorite shattered into many pieces, but due to insufficient time, it still crashed down heavily, while countless other meteorite fragments continued to hurl down like cannonballs.
The land seemed to have been bombarded like a carpet, with booming sounds echoing everywhere.
A fierce wind swept through the sand, revealing the battlefield. At that moment, the smile on Uchiha Yoru's face gradually turned into a cold glint.
"Tailed Beast Cloak, is this your choice?! To act with impunity time and time again!"
A cold, suppressed voice echoed across the battlefield, and as the true nature of the battlefield was revealed, the Konoha members all showed angry glares.
"Is this your choice?!" Hatake Kakashi slowly revealed the Mangekyo in his left eye, his eyes filled with cold killing intent.
Jiraiya couldn't help but reveal a complicated expression, which eventually turned into a soft sigh.
"Naruto!"
Many ninjas in the Konoha Allied Forces showed grim expressions.
After the sandstorm subsided, the Ninja Alliance beneath the meteorite appeared with red Tailed Beast Cloak shaped like foxes. A blond-haired boy appeared among them, his gaze fixed firmly on the Ninja Alliance Uchiha Yoru.
"Stop! War only breeds hatred! This is not peace!"
Naruto Uzumaki shouted resolutely, but Uchiha Yoru revealed a mocking sneer, "It seems I've spoiled you too much all these years, Naruto Uzumaki! You've actually turned against me at the last minute."
However, Naruto Uzumaki, without any shame, looked around at everyone and solemnly shouted, "Why do we have war? Isn't peace better?"
"Such fighting only breeds hatred... I'm willing to act as a bridge between the two sides and put an end to the war!"
Looking at the arrogant Naruto Uzumaki, Uchiha Yoruro a mocking smile, just then a voice rang out from afar by Hatake Kakashi.
"Naruto!"
Naruto Uzumaki looked at Konoha with a pleading gaze, hoping someone would understand him. Unfortunately, he was met with an incredulous and indifferent look from his teacher Hatake Kakashi.
"It's not too late to turn back now!"
Under Kakashi's cold voice, Jiraiya remained silent. He naturally understood Naruto's will, and their years of companionship had forged deep feelings between them.
If the two sides were evenly matched, he would definitely side with Naruto. But now they have the advantage, and unifying the Shinobi World is within reach.
As for whether Uchiha Yoru's direction was right or wrong, Jiraiya could only smile bitterly. At the very least, in an era where ninja villages were numerous and daimyo ruled, war never stopped. No one knew what peace truly looked like; success could only be achieved through repeated failed attempts.
"Kakashi!" Kakashi hesitated for a moment, Jiraiya sighed, and finally shook his head, saying, "Never mind."
In the end Jiraiya fell silent and chose to abandon Naruto. He also pursued peace, and Naruto's peaceful coexistence was clearly similar to the situation of the First Hokage.
This peace is fleeting and illusory.
In contrast, after Uchiha Yoru unified the Shinobi World, he concentrated all his power in the most fertile Land of Fire. Even a hundred years later, when the Shinobi World experienced turmoil, it was only a small part of it.
After all, the strongest forces are in the Land of Fire, so they can easily quell the unrest.
While this doesn't qualify as true peace, he can see that it's much better than the current situation of numerous ninja villages.
There are also drawbacks, namely that the current war for unification will inevitably result in bloodshed and accumulate countless hatreds, which is why Uchiha Yoru said that unification should be done as soon as possible.
Over Third Hokage and a century, hatred will be forgotten with time.
"Kakashi-sensei!"
Looking at the familiar faces of Konoha in the distance, Naruto Uzumaki's face showed a determined expression.
"Kakashi-sensei, even if you don't understand, I will do it. This First Shinobi War, for the sake of so-called unification and peace, will inevitably result in rivers of blood and more than 100,000 ninjas killed or wounded."
"But as long as both sides are willing to shake hands and make peace, just like the First Hokage, the ninja world will remain peaceful until Uchiha Yoru's power disappears. During this time, we can do our best to find peace and let us understand each other..."
Despite his internal struggle, Naruto Uzumaki still couldn't bear to watch over the sacrifice of more than 100,000 ninjas.
"Naruto, is this the peace you've been seeking?!"
At this moment Hatake Kakashi showed a look of disappointment. Naruto's so-called peace ideals were still living within the confines of the Shinobi World's plans and had never stepped outside of them.
Naruto Uzumaki believed he was right; if both sides stopped the war, it would reduce casualties by tens of thousands, and Konoha's power was enough to maintain peace in the Shinobi World.
Why kill so many people and create so much hatred?
Earth Release: Ultra-Light-Weight Rock Technique
Just then, the First and Second Hokage Tsuchikage rode on the backs of the three Raikage, with the Second Tsuchikage Mu even splitting himself off using the Split Technique.
The three Tsuchikage rode on the backs of the First, Second Hokage, and Third Hokage Raikage, and directly unleashed Earth Release: Ultra-Light-Weight Rock Technique.
In an instant, the three Raikage unleashed their full power, directly using their strongest offensive Ninjutsu.
Hell Stab - One-Finger Nukite
Hell Stab - Two-Finger Nukite
The three Raikage, the First and Third Raikage being the strongest, appeared directly in front of Susanoo as a bolt of lightning and unleashed their strongest attack.
At that moment, the three Tsuchikage, riding on the Raikage, roared, "Earth Release: Ultra-Added-Weight Rock Technique!"
In an instant, the three Raikage's power increased exponentially, and before Uchiha Yoru could react, the Susanoo's bones shattered.
Rumble~
Susanoo shattered, the ninjas on both sides of the battlefield watched in shock as the three Raikage's strongest attacks pierced the chest of Uchiha Yoru, the so-called God of Shinobi World.
Three thick, powerful hands, like sharp Kunai, pierced through his chest. At that moment Uchiha Yoru showed an expression of disbelief, looking down at the wound on his chest, and Susanoo."
"This is the power of the Five Kage!"
The Raikage and Tsuchikage roared excitedly, unleashing the power within them.
"No!"
"Damn it! Kill!"
The sudden turn of events filled Naruto Uzumaki with disbelief. After the initial shock, he roared, "I said stop the war! Didn't you hear me?!"
With Uchiha Yoru dead, the war will immediately spiral out of control. Even the thick-skinned Naruto Uzumaki knew this, and he roared in anger.
However, at that moment, a smile gradually appeared on Uchiha Yoru's face as he looked at the five Kage who were attacking him.
"Not bad teamwork, you actually managed to break my Susanoo."
As Uchiha Yoru spoke these words with a smile, his body began to change. At this moment, the Third Raikage exclaimed in shock and anger, "It's Wood Clone!"
Click~ Click~
As Uchiha Yoru's body gradually turned to wood starting from his feet, the Raikage and Tsuchikage looked extremely grim, while the Konoha Ninja in the distance cheered.
"Naruto Uzumaki!"
The sound came from above, and only then did everyone realize that Uchiha Yoru had never come down from the rock in the first place; what he had just seen were merely Wood Clone.
Uchiha Yoru slowly emerged, his crimson Mangekyō Sharingan scanning all the ninjas before finally settling on Naruto Uzumaki.
"Naruto Uzumaki has defected to the enemy and is now classified as an S-rank Rogue Ninja of Konoha. All Konoha ninja have the right to kill him and reclaim the Nine-Tails!"
Rogue Ninja!
Naruto Uzumaki was stunned when he heard this. Looking at the angry and indifferent eyes of the Konoha in the distance, his heart trembled.
Although he had considered the consequences of doing so, he still couldn't help but feel heartbroken when the time came.
"Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, do you have any objections to my orders?"
However, just after announcing Naruto Uzumaki Rogue Ninja, Uchiha Yoru calmly said something, and then, as footsteps sounded, everyone noticed that there were two coffins behind them.
A blond man wearing a divine robe and a red-haired woman walked out. When Naruto Uzumaki saw them, he couldn't help but have tears welling up in his eyes.
"Father! Mother!"
The people who appeared were none other than the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, and Kushina Uzumaki.
At that moment, the couple looked at their son, Minato Namikaze took a deep breath and replied hoarsely, "No objections!"
"Minato!" Kushina Uzumaki couldn't help but grab her husband's arm; she couldn't bear to see her son become Rogue Ninja.
At this moment, with Minato Namikaze's personal admission, Naruto Uzumaki's face turned ashen, as if his insistence had become utterly laughable, staring at the indifferent gazes of everyone in Konoha.
A voice seemed to be screaming in Naruto Uzumaki's heart, asking him if it was worth it. He had given everything for a so-called peace that had nothing to do with him.
However, another voice told him to uphold his Nindo, that there were too many tragedies in this world, that war only breeds hatred, and that only mutual understanding could bring peace.
"Naruto!"
At that moment Minato Namikaze let out a hoarse shout. Looking at his distraught son, he still couldn't bear it and pointed at Konoha.
"Naruto, look at the situation now! War is unavoidable, Konoha and other villages! Your friends, comrades, and teammates are all in Konoha. Is it worth it for an unfamiliar Ninja Alliance?"
Minato Namikaze rose to fame during the Third Shinobi War, his hands stained with the blood of countless enemy village ninjas. He also yearned for peace, but loved Konoha even more.
Minato Namikaze was a pure and true Hokage; he loved only his own existence, just like the Five Kage.
"Then I'll give you two a chance: capture the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and extract the Nine-Tails. In return, I can allow you to keep a portion of the Nine-Tails Chakra."
Uchiha Yoru looked at the Fourth Hokage and his wife and coldly said something that was practically saying that as long as the two of them captured Naruto Uzumaki, they could be allowed to leave behind a portion of the Nine-Tails Chakra, and Naruto Uzumaki would not die.
However, Naruto Uzumaki's actions today have sealed his fate of spending the rest of his life in Prison.
Thank you, thank you.
Upon hearing this, Kushina Uzumaki expressed her gratitude repeatedly, while Minato to the side, wore a complex expression, still deeply grateful to Uchiha Yoru.
At this moment, Uchiha Yoru looked at Naruto Uzumaki with a sarcastic smile on his lips. He hadn't expected that his backup plan would come in handy.
Originally, after Sasuke Uchiha went to capture the Daimyo, he secretly noticed that Naruto Uzumaki was acting strangely, so he secretly reported it to him.
Unexpectedly, Naruto Uzumaki's unexpected number one ranking as a ninja is truly surprising and outrageous.
All of this was seen by the Fourth Hokage and his wife. The Fourth Shinobi War was inevitable. Among the various ninja villages, Konoha and the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, firmly chose Konoha.
"Now it's your turn!"
At that moment, Uchiha Yoruro a cruel smile, while Naruto Uzumaki was already captivated by the Fourth Hokage and his wife.
Wood Release: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees
Uchiha Yoru suddenly clapped his hands together, and the earth trembled instantly, with terrifying vines beginning to sprout.
At this moment, Uchiha Obito voice, "Madara, we can't just watch. If this continues, we won't be able to inflict much damage on Konoha."
Madara Uchiha was silent for a moment, then nodded and said in a deep voice, "Let's start the war!"
Wood Release: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees
Madara Uchiha also unleashed his full power, clapping his hands to unleash the same Wood Style Ninjutsu. The difference was that, as the earth trembled, the Wood Release of both sides clashed and clashed.
Uchiha Obito also Hand Seals, and at the same time, his right Mangekyou Mangekyo began to spin rapidly.
Fire Style: Blast Wave Wild Dance
Kamui distorted the surrounding space and created a vortex-like storm. Then, Obito spat out a terrifying, spinning fire serpent. The vortex-like storm and the spinning fire serpent combined to form a huge, rotating flame, instantly creating a terrifying Fire Release Ninjutsu aimed at the Konoha Allied Forces in the distance.
At the same time, the reanimated ninjas hidden in the Impure World Reincarnation also appeared at the ambush site and charged towards the Konoha Ninja legion.
At that moment, both sides' ninjas roared in anger, and the Ninja Alliance's ninjas also rushed madly towards Konoha's side. As long as they were entangled, even a terrifying ninja like Uchiha Yoru wouldn't dare to act recklessly.
"This is bad, Madara Uchiha is trying to wear down both of our strength."
The Impure World Reincarnation Hashirama Senju cried out in surprise; at this moment, no one was a fool.
But Madara Uchiha and Obito are using an open strategy; should we fight or not?
If we fight, they're now on the Allied Forces' side. If we don't fight, the current Ninja Alliance are no match for them. The legion forces are a different story; they're evenly matched.
However, in terms of high-end combat capabilities, the gap is not small.
Therefore, Ōnoki and the Fourth Raikage, Ay knew about each other's scheme, but could only endure it and launch an attack.
Were Madara Uchiha and Obito strong? They were indeed strong, but their opponent Uchiha Yoru, was no pushover either. It might not be a mutually destructive fight, but rather a triple defeat.
