Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Naruto Uzumaki

When the Fourth Raikage received the message from Konoha, he didn't even have time to curse.

Because he had just received the intelligence and hadn't had time to examine it closely, the Cloud ninja saw a large white bird flying rapidly in the distance.

The Cloud ninja were prepared. The Fourth Raikage roared, "Prepare for battle! Target in the sky!"

A large number of Cloud ninja immediately began to leave the ships quickly and orderly according to the established plan, forming a formation on the sea to prepare to meet the enemy.

However, no matter how fast the Cloud Ninja Army was, they couldn't outrun the few people in the air.

While the Cloud ninja were still busy, a beam of white light traveled several kilometers and struck a ship directly.

Although a large number of Cloud ninja had already left the ship, there were still many on board who hadn't had time to evacuate.

Ōnoki's Dust Release took at least dozens of lives.

Following the white light, several wide-range Ninjutsu immediately rained down. These were A-rank Ninjutsu from Ikura, Han, and Roshi.

But at that moment, the Cloud ninja's defenses also rose up.

First, several enormous Eight-Tails tentacles lashed out rapidly, blocking the two attacks.

Then came streaks of blue Lightning Release that quickly struck the remaining Area of Effect Ninjutsu.

Therefore, apart from Ōnoki's Dust Release, none of the other attacks from the Iwa ninja side were successful.

Seeing the Cloud Ninja Army gradually forming formation, the Fourth Raikage turned his gaze to the sky, muttering, "Another air force."

Then, he patted his Ninja Tool Pouch, and a set of winged armor immediately appeared in his hand.

The Fourth Raikage quickly finished dressing, then his body crackled with lightning. The next moment, the Fourth Raikage soared into the sky and flew directly towards Ōnoki and his companions.

Slightly slower than the Fourth Raikage, one by one, the Cloud ninja flew out from the army.

Once in the air, they formed tight formations and quickly surrounded Ōnoki and his group.

Ōnoki was taken aback and exclaimed in surprise, "The Cloud ninja have actually developed flying ninja tools?"

Deidara, standing nearby, excitedly said, "Old man, let me handle them."

After saying that, the Clay Bird beneath Deidara's feet opened its large mouth and spat out a large flock of small birds.

Under Deidara's control, these little birds swooped rapidly toward their target.

Around Deidara, Ikura and the others also took action, using Ninjutsu to restrict the flight paths of the flying ninjas.

At the same time, a large number of Cloud ninja below had already organized themselves, and wave after wave of combined Ninjutsu began to attack the Clay Bird beneath them.

Staying aloof from the battlefield where the others were, Ōnoki began his battle with the Fourth Raikage.

The ninja tools carried by Cloud ninja also require Chakra Level to be used for flight.

The more condensed the Chakra, the faster the flight speed, and the more agile the turning, acceleration, and deceleration during flight.

The Fourth Raikage was the fastest and most agile of all the Cloud ninja.

Fourth Raikage, clad in Lightning Armor, didn't need to dodge the Earth Style Ninjutsu that Ōnoki used, but this big oaf simply chose to ram it with his head.

The Fourth Raikage would only cautiously dodge whenever Ōnoki used Dust Release.

Ōnoki was no match for the Fourth Raikage, but the Fourth Raikage was no match for Ōnoki either.

For Ōnoki, flying in the air is probably smoother than running on the ground.

Therefore, Ōnoki's agility far surpasses that of the Fourth Raikage.

However, the Fourth Raikage was very excited, finally able to fight a fair fight.

Over the years, Yichen has distorted the fighting spirit of the Ninja World.

Yichen always fights using ranged Ninjutsu in the air, which is very unfriendly to the Fourth Raikage, who is Taijutsu Ninja.

Previously, when dealing with ranged ninjas, the Fourth Raikage only needed to charge in while enduring their attacks.

Use overwhelming strength to close the gap between the two sides, and then use overwhelming power to kill the enemy.

But Yichen can fly. And not only can Yichen fly by himself, he always carries others with him when they fly in the air.

The Fourth Raikage was essentially ineffective in his previous battle with Yichen.

Despite possessing the strongest attack and the strongest defense, its effectiveness is less than that of an Elite Jonin who knows A-rank Ninjutsu.

The fact that he was able to contend with Ōnoki today gave the Fourth Raikage a glimpse of a bright future.

This armor was only the first generation of Flying Armor developed by the Cloud ninja. As the technology improved, the Fourth Raikage felt that one day he would be able to fly in the air as if he were on flat ground.

As a result, the Fourth Raikage became more and more excited during the battle. Although he never managed to touch Ōnoki was also preoccupied with his interference and had no time to spare.

On the other side, the battle between Ikura, Han, Roshi, Deidara, and the Cloud Ninja Army was also raging fiercely.

The Cloud ninja's teamwork is nowhere near that of the Konoha Army, but the Eight-Tails' agility surpasses even that of Ikura and his group.

Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer B, made up for the shortcomings of the Cloud ninja.

Therefore, in the battle between the two sides, it turned out that Ikura and his group were at a disadvantage.

A few kilometers from the battlefield, in the water, a small squad of Iwa Ninja Anbu were observing the situation.

One of them appeared no different from his companions, but beneath his mask, the veins around one of his eyes were bulging.

This person is none other than Hu, who has had his Byakugan transplanted.

Hu kept his eyes glued to the battlefield. Suddenly, he said to someone beside him, "Send a message to Lord Kawakita, telling him that Third Lord are at a disadvantage."

"The Cloud ninja used wind-based ninja tools; the Fourth Raikage and many Cloud ninja were able to fly."

"Yes." A nearby intelligence ninja responded, immediately wrote down the information, and then used Summoning Jutsu to transmit it to the Iwa Ninja Army that was poised to attack behind him.

At the border Lands of Fire and Earth, Yichen was listening to his subordinates report on the situation.

"Lord Tsuchikage, the Konoha Army has moved closer to the border, but they haven't crossed it yet."

"The Mist ninja have not made any moves yet; their assembled army is still in the Land of Water."

Yichen nodded. In fact, he didn't need intelligence ninjas to report; he could grasp the movements of the Konoha Army simply by using his Mind's Eye.

Then Yichen instructed, "Continue to monitor them, paying special attention to the whereabouts of Kakashi Hatake and Hiruzen Sarutobi."

After saying that, Yichen glanced at Chiga beside him, then said to Sokai and Izumi Uchiha in front of him, "Through Chiga's Blood Sense, we can confirm that there is an Uchiha in the Konoha Army."

"Obito Uchiha dead, Sasuke Uchiha in Konoha, Shisui Uchiha in the village, this person must be Itachi Uchiha."

Upon hearing Yichen mention that Itachi Uchiha was in Konoha, both of them perked up, and their eyes immediately ignited with fighting spirit.

Last time, even though it was two against one, Itachi Uchiha only gained the upper hand because he wasn't familiar with their Dōjutsu.

After some time, both of them felt they had made great progress and were eager to get their revenge.

Then Yichen looked at the listless Matsutani Shinya and said, "Shinya, if I'm not mistaken, Might Guy is on the other side too."

"Last time, when you had just opened the Seventh Gate, Might Guy, who barely had the strength to strike, almost killed you. This time, Might Guy must have mastered the essentials of the Seventh Gate. Can you hold him off?"

Matsutani Shinya and said, "Now I know how to deal with the Eight Inner Gates."

Yichen nodded. Matsutani Shinya one to show off; he was intelligent enough that Yichen didn't need to worry about him too much.

Then Yichen said, "It's settled then. If Konoha chooses to attack, I will deal with the Third Hokage and the Seventh Hokage."

"Give Might Guy to Shinya, Itachi Uchiha to Sokai and Quan Luo."

"Furthermore, Sokai and Quan Luo, you have witnessed the capabilities of the Konoha Army. I need you to use Susanoo assist in battle if the camp is in danger."

Sokai and Quan Luo nodded.

Seeing this, Yichen said to Matsutani Shinya, "Shinya, after the battle, take Sokai and Quan Luo to the Land of Snow Branch and see if you can help them restore their eye power."

After arranging the battle, Yichen summoned the Anbu and said, "Keep a close eye on the movements of the Mist ninja. If necessary, contact my people whom I have personally placed within the Mist ninja."

"Yes." Upon hearing this, the Anbu immediately left to make the arrangements.

Then Yichen summoned two more people: one was Kamizuru Tsuruhime, and the other was Yichen Neji Hyuga had temporarily brought from the Ninja Academy.

Yichen said to the two, "Tsuruhime, Neji, you both possess special abilities that excel at reconnaissance."

"From now on, carefully scout the surroundings, and report any suspicious activity to the commander immediately."

Yichen did all this to guard against the Mist ninja.

Although Yichen believed that Mist ninja would not change his stance so hastily.

However, Yichen still needed to take some precautions, at least in terms of intelligence.

We can't wait until the Mist ninja launches an attack on the Iwa ninja before we start thinking about how to remedy the situation.

After making these arrangements, Yichen sat in the tent, waiting for Konoha's next move.

A moment later, sensing something, Yichen's heart stirred, and he muttered to himself, "Konoha actually chose a battle between high-level combatants?"

In Yichen's perception, several powerful Chakra fluctuations from Konoha were rapidly breaking away from the Konoha Army and heading towards the Iwa ninja.

Yichen frowned and thought for a moment. Why would Konoha abandon its greatest advantage and choose to fight against its top-tier fighters?

After witnessing the methods of the Konoha Army, Yichen felt that although the Iwa ninja far outnumbered the Konoha ninja.

However, in a real large-scale battle, Yichen had no confidence in his side.

The Iwa ninja lack a commander like Shikaku Nara.

Unable to understand, Yichen, along with Matsutani Shinya, Sokai, Izumi Uchiha, left the camp.

In fact, Konoha was also afraid of engaging in ninja army battles with Iwa ninja.

First, the number of Iwa ninja far exceeds that of Konoha.

Secondly, the Iwa ninja have spare capacity, with troops remaining in various branches and a large number of troops stationed in the village.

Furthermore, the number of Iwa ninja ninjas on missions across half the Ninja World is enormous. These Iwa ninja have not been recalled.

Therefore, in Kakashi's and the others' view, even if the Iwa ninja suffered heavy losses in their army of over 10,000, it wouldn't be a crippling blow.

Konoha was almost at its limit; the village only had essential defensive ninja left.

Most of the ninjas who were out on missions were also urgently recalled.

Besides this large army, Konoha only has two other forces: one in the direction of Kirigakure and the other in the Land of Wind.

When it comes to attrition warfare with the Ninja Army, Konoha fears it more than Iwa ninja.

Finally, the Konoha High-ranking officials concluded that many of their trump Trump Card had already been revealed to the Tsuchikage, rendering them ineffective in surprising opponents.

The Konoha Village had absolutely no idea what methods the Iwa ninja used.

After Yichen left the camp, the Iwa ninja commander stabilized the main force and carried out defenses while sending out a large number of ninja in small squads to harass the Konoha Camp.

Since Konoha is strong in large-scale battles, let's turn the fighting into small-scale melees.

Shikaku Nara quickly discerned the Iwa ninja's intentions. Unperturbed, he calmly dispatched a small team.

When it comes to team combat, Konoha has never been afraid of anyone, and Shikaku Nara has that much confidence.

Yichen, Matsutani Shinya, Sokai, Izumi Uchiha.

Kakashi, Hiruzen Sarutobi (and Enma), Itachi Uchiha, Might Guy.

Upon meeting, Kakashi waved his hand and said, "Begin."

As soon as Kakashi finished speaking, Might Guy rushed towards Sokai, while Hiruzen Sarutobi unleashed Ninjutsu at Izumi Uchiha.

Itachi Uchiha activated his Sharingan at Matsutani Shinya, while Kakashi himself headed straight for Yichen.

Yichen smiled slightly. It seemed that Konoha had made ample preparations.

They chose opponents who were completely countered by them.

For example, if Might Guy were to Sokai without activating Susanoo, Sokai probably wouldn't even last a minute.

For example, Itachi Uchiha chose to avoid the Dōjutsu of the two clansmen.

Since that's the case...

Yichen quickly Hand Seals, and then a wide-range Light Release was launched towards the four people and the monkey.

Following closely behind the Light Release was a vast expanse of Porcelain Mud.

At the same time, a Porcelain Platform Matsutani Shinya directly beneath the feet of each of the three, and they were instantly transported to a new location by the Porcelain Release.

Yichen's Light Release and Porcelain Release techniques have a range far exceeding that of Hiruzen Sarutobi's Ninjutsu.

After a flash of blue light, all that remained in the arena was mud everywhere. Kakashi and the others' view was immediately blocked.

Yichen controlled the mud, weaving it back and forth across the field, though he couldn't harm anyone on the other side.

However, the positions of the four people and the monkey were immediately disrupted.

Then, Yichen controlled the Porcelain Platform and sent Sokai and Izumi Uchiha to Itachi Uchiha.

Matsutani Shinya was sent into the air near Might Guy.

He then gradually separated Kakashi, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Enma, and the others.

Hiruzen Sarutobi and Kakashi exchanged a glance, their expressions both extremely grim.

In terms of battlefield control, none of the Konoha members could match Yichen, who possessed the Hand Seal-less Porcelain Release Yichen.

Yichen smiled slightly at the two of them, then began to rapidly Hand Seals.

Then, one after another, Light Release Ninjutsu rained down on the two of them without restraint.

Over the past six months, Yichen's mastery of Light Release has yielded impressive results. Although the fusion is not yet complete, Yichen's proficiency with Light Release has reached a new level.

He can use various forms of Light Release Ninjutsu with ease, and the number of Hand Seals has been simplified by Yichen, making the execution speed extremely fast.

Faced with Yichen's diverse range of Light Release, Kakashi and Hiruzen Sarutobi abandoned their idea of splitting up to find other opponents.

One of them used Ninjutsu to neutralize the Light Release attack, while the other was responsible for ranged attacks on Yichen. Occasionally, the two would switch roles, cooperating very well.

The Enma transformed into Adamantine Nyoi-bō, occasionally striking in Yichen's direction.

Kakashi and Hiruzen Sarutobi are both tactical masters. The two cooperated perfectly and fought back and forth with Yichen's Light Release.

However, Yichen's Light Release technique is too powerful. Even the lowest-level C-rank Light Release will either kill or maim anyone who gets hit by it.

Kakashi and his team often need to use B-rank Ninjutsu to counter C-rank Light Release. Similarly, when attacking Yichen, at least B-rank Ninjutsu is required to pose even a slight threat to Yichen.

Furthermore, Yichen's Hand Seals speed far surpassed that of the two, so although Yichen was fighting three against one, he maintained the initiative from beginning to end.

Not far away, at the same moment that Yichen clashed with the two, three Susanoo after another.

As soon as the three Susanoo appeared, they immediately engaged in a melee combat of a massive scale.

Sokai and Izumi Uchiha similar plans, both wanting to end the battle quickly. Yichen even said that they should have the spare capacity to support the Iwa Ninja Army.

Although the two armies have not yet clashed, killing Itachi Uchiha as soon as possible to avenge their clansmen remains a shared obsession for both of them.

Therefore, the two of them immediately used Susanoo, which consumes the most eye power.

Itachi Uchiha originally didn't want to waste his time fighting these two fools who only had hatred in their eyes. He wanted to preserve his eye power to protect his beloved younger brother.

However, after the two opponents used Susanoo, his Fire Style Ninjutsu and Kunai-Throwing Technique became useless.

These two's Dōjutsu were completely countered by his, Itachi Uchiha didn't dare to meet their gazes at all. Therefore, he was unable to use his Genjutsu, which he was very good at.

Thus, just like Sokai, Itachi Uchiha Susanoo while shedding tears of blood.

Of the three, only Izumi Uchiha slightly better off; she possessed more eye power and appeared quite relaxed.

Itachi Uchiha's expression was grim as he tried to control his Susanoo while pondering a way to break the deadlock.

His eye power had already been absorbed by Izumi Uchiha, so he couldn't maintain it for long.

Despite the fact that Sokai and Quan Luo's Susanoo were not used well, Itachi Uchiha still felt that there was no hope of defeating the two before his eye power was exhausted.

In the final instance, Matsutani Shinya used Yichen's Porcelain Platform to maintain his distance from Might Guy.

He simply used various types of Senjutsu to maneuver around Might Guy in the air.

Might Guy, with all six gates open, can also move in the air, but his agility is far inferior to that of the Porcelain Platform.

At this rate, by the time Might Guy of the Sixth Gate is exhausted, he probably won't even be able to touch Matsutani Shinya's clothes.

Might Guy, who believed he couldn't hold out for long in the six-gate state, had no choice but to open the Seventh Gate.

However, Might Guy's endurance with the Seventh Gate is very short. Matsutani Shinya can quickly win by simply keeping Might Guy at bay from a distance.

The top fighters from both Konoha and Iwa ninja clashed fiercely from the start, with Konoha immediately falling into a disadvantageous position.

Seeing this, Kakashi Hiruzen Sarutobi was equally disheveled, and then he Hand Seals.

"Water Release - Water Formation Wall." A Water Curtain appeared, quickly blocking Yichen's C-rank Light Release.

"Earth Release: Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall!" Hiruzen Sarutobi shouted in unison, abandoning his attack and once again setting up a defense for the two of them.

At that moment, Kakashi took out a scroll.

He raised the scroll in his hand, and the next moment, a Signal Flare shot into the sky.

Yichen's gaze sharpened. While remaining vigilant about his surroundings, he began to wonder if Konoha had some Trump Card in mind for sending this signal at this moment.

Just as Yichen was pondering this, a small squad of Konoha Anbu rapidly approached from afar.

Yichen clearly sensed that one of the Anbu was carrying a child on his back.

Yichen's heart skipped a beat: the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Naruto Uzumaki.

Yichen thought to himself, "Naruto should still be playing ninja games at the Ninja Academy at his age, how could he use the Nine-Tails' power?"

Soon, the Konoha Anbu team broke through the barrier of Yichen Porcelain Release and brought Naruto into the arena.

Then one of them formed a hand Hand Seals and patted Naruto's stomach. The next moment, a large amount of red Chakra belonging to the Nine-Tails emerged from Naruto's body and appeared on his skin.

This process continued until four Chakra tails appeared on Naruto's body.

"Partial Tailed Beast Transformation?" Yichen observed Naruto's condition while dealing with Hiruzen Sarutobi and Kakashi.

Suddenly, Naruto, in his Partial Tailed Beast Transformation, lunged forward and knocked down Izumi Uchiha's Susanoo.

Yichen was startled. Naruto could really control the Nine-Tails? Was my butterfly effect that powerful?

But Yichen soon realized he was wrong.

Because when Naruto in his Partial Tailed Beast Transformation, he seemed to have no pressure at all when controlling the Nine-Tails Chakra, as if the Nine-Tails had no aversion to Naruto.

At this point, it was impossible for Naruto to reconcile with Nine-Tails.

Even though Nine-Tails) wasn't cooperating, Naruto could still use Nine-Tails power freely. There's only one answer: Genjutsu).

However, it's unclear whether it was Itachi Uchiha's Genjutsu or Kakashi's Genjutsu.

Yichen glanced at Itachi Uchiha, Susanoo at full power, and then at Kakashi, who hadn't yet revealed his Sharingan. He had his answer.

That makes sense. How could Konoha possibly hand over a weapon of war like the Nine-Tails to Itachi Uchiha?

Even if Kakashi were willing, Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others wouldn't agree.

When Naruto with four tails joined the battle, the situation on the field immediately changed.

The initially dominant Sokai and Izumi Uchiha immediately forced to retreat by Itachi Uchiha and Naruto.

Seeing this, Yichen smiled slightly to himself.

With the Sage of Six Paths present, he couldn't get close to the two saviors, but now Konoha has personally delivered Naruto to Yichen.

So...
