Impure World War III

Minato Namikaze's gaze sharpened!

He wasn't surprised by Hozuki Mangetsu's actions; it was obvious without even guessing. Hozuki Mangetsu had definitely fallen under Genjutsu, most likely Obito Uchiha.

Minato Namikaze was deeply troubled by his own mistaken feeling.

That feeling at that moment was unmistakable; Hozuki Mangetsu definitely wanted to attack him.

But why did he suddenly stop attacking himself and choose suicide instead?

Did they anticipate I would run away? That's why they gave up attacking me?

Minato Namikaze's mind raced, and Hozuki Mangetsu, the Second Mizukage, and Ao all made mistakes.

The killing move Hozuki Mangetsu, which he had sensed, suddenly disappeared, and he chose to commit suicide instead.

Suddenly, Minato Namikaze turned to look at Fugaku Uchiha.

"Dōjutsu that can foresee the future?!" Minato Namikaze muttered to himself.

His first reaction was to notify the Allied forces, but after thinking about it, he didn't do so.

At this time, Kakashi, Naruto, Sasuke, Hinata also defeated the four Jinchuriki from the Iwa ninja side.

The four are: Yugito, the former Two-Tails Jinchuriki of Yugito Two-Tails, the former Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, and Yuki Koru.

At that point, the result for both sides would be that nine Reanimated Body on the Iwa ninja side would be eliminated, while only four on the allied forces side would be eliminated.

The allied forces were in complete control, but they couldn't be happy because Hozuki Mangetsu had been killed in battle.

This was the first living person on the Allied side to die in battle.

The Iwa ninja only lose Reanimated Body; they wouldn't care how many more die.

However, the allied forces were missing one survivor, casting Kirigakure once again.

Just then, the little Katsuyu on Kakashi's body said anxiously, "Lord Hokage, the Second Tsuchikage is launching a sneak attack on the reserve team."

The reserve team that the little Katsuyu mentioned refers to the reanimated Reanimated Body of many Mist ninja from the Mist Elite Jonin, including that Red Eye ninja.

Of course, besides the Reanimated Body, there are also some Mist ninja Elite Jonin.

Kakashi looked across and saw that the Second Tsuchikage Mu, was still there.

At this moment, Mito Uzumaki had also received a notification from the little Katsuyu on her body, hesitated for a moment and said, "I heard that the Second Tsuchikage has Ninjutsu that can split his body."

"He should divide himself in two and fight on two fronts."

After a pause, Mito Uzumaki added, "I heard Tobirama say that the Second Tsuchikage would be unable to use Dust Release after using this special clone."

Kakashi recalled for a moment, and sure enough, Mu hadn't used Dust Release in a long time.

Mito Uzumaki was right. Aono Shinichi and his two companions deduced that someone was remotely monitoring the battle here, so they sent the Second Tsuchikage Mu, to search for the enemies in the surrounding area.

Without the ability to split, they can leave the battlefield silently and undetected.

Wu also possesses Sensory Ninjutsu and stealth abilities, making him ideal for reconnaissance.

Sure enough, after circling around, Wu found the Elite Jonin of the Allied Forces hidden in the shadows.

Without using the Dust Veil Technique, he approached the Red Eye ninja from behind.

The Red Eye's Dōjutsu is very distinctive, but it doesn't include 360-degree vision without blind spots, so it didn't detect the invisible approach.

Then he was defeated without a single blow.

However, since he didn't know Genjutsu, he simply sealed the Red Eye ninja away.

After dealing with the Red Eye ninja, Wu originally planned to return, not taking the remaining Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist of the Mist seriously.

Even though the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist Ninja Blade, Aono Shinichi and the others didn't consider them as bargaining chips that could influence the outcome of the battle.

However, when Sakura mentioned that the Allied Forces had sent Kakuzu and Karatachi Yagura, the former Three-Tails Jinchuriki, to help, Aono Shinichi changed his mind.

Minato Namikaze and Kakashi didn't come; it seems the Allied Forces only wanted to drive Mu away.

It's probably because they considered that it couldn't fly and could become invisible, making it difficult to deal with.

Aono Shinichi plans to open up a smaller battlefield here to weaken the Allied Forces' fighting strength.

The battle on the main battlefield did not ease despite the departure of Kakuzu and the Three-Tails Jinchuriki.

After a brief delay, the two sides clashed again.

In the midst of the chaos, Minato Namikaze suddenly used the Flying Thunder God to bring Kakashi to Naruto's side.

Under the puzzled gazes of Kakashi and Naruto, Minato Namikaze extended two fists.

Naruto and Kakashi exchanged a glance, then extended their fists and clashed with Minato Namikaze's.

The next moment, the three exchanged a glance, nodded to each other, and then rushed towards the Iwa ninja.

On the other end, Sakura's expression shifted; she used Fugaku Uchiha's Dōjutsu to predict what would happen a few seconds later.

Sakura then took advantage of the situation and targeted her Reanimated Body at the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki, Kaze, and the Three-Tails Jinchuriki, Ao.

Natsuki and Yakumo Kurama had very few remaining Reanimated Body under their control, and they were both trying their best to cooperate with Sakura.

However, when Sakura and her two companions tried to use their old tricks again, relying on their predictions to deal with the Allied Forces, something unexpected happened.

The moment Sakura moved the person away, Minato Namikaze also made his move.

According to Minato Namikaze's analysis, it was impossible to stop Fugaku Uchiha's Dōjutsu.

However, Minato Namikaze felt that while Fugaku Uchiha's Dōjutsu could predict the future, there was one thing he couldn't predict: the Dōjutsu themselves.

For example Fugaku Uchiha can see someone's behavior under normal circumstances, but Sakura will make tactical adjustments after seeing this behavior.

Sakura's tactical adjustment process was something Fugaku Uchiha couldn't see.

In other words, Fugaku Uchiha's Dōjutsu could not detect anything that was done based on this tactical adjustment.

Minato Namikaze's next move was based on Sakura's tactical adjustment.

This way, they can perfectly avoid Fugaku Uchiha's Dōjutsu.

Of course, if Fugaku Uchiha could quickly use his Dōjutsu to foresee the future again after Sakura's actions, then that would be a different story.

However, Minato Namikaze wasn't worried about that, because even if Fugaku Uchiha saw something, it would be too late for Sakura to mobilize her forces.

So when they saw the Iwa ninja make their move, Minato Namikaze suddenly changed direction with Naruto, and the two of them rushed towards the Partial Tailed Beast Transformation, Kinkaku and Ginkaku.

Prior to this, under Kakashi's arrangement, Kushina Uzumaki and Mito Uzumaki were fighting against Kinkaku and Ginkaku.

All four are Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and their fighting styles are similar. Although Kinkaku Ginkaku are at a disadvantage, they are not easy to defeat.

But then Minato Namikaze and Naruto suddenly intervened.

This small battlefield miraculously transformed into a battleground for the six Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

At this point, Minato Namikaze and Naruto did not directly attack Kinkaku and Ginkaku using Ninjutsu or Tailed Beast tentacles.

The two simultaneously communicated with the Nine-Tails within their bodies, intending to use the Nine-Tails Chakra to influence the Nine-Tails Chakra on Kinkaku Ginkaku.

This is something Minato Namikaze learned from when Karatachi Yagura, the Three-Tails Jinchuriki, break free from Genjutsu.

Seeing this, Mito Uzumaki and Kushina Uzumaki, who were originally fighting, did the same thing as Minato and Minato Namikaze.

The next moment, the combined power of the Nine-Tails within the four people interfered with Kinkaku Ginkaku.

Then, the thick Tailed Beast Chakra Cloak that were originally on Kinkaku and Ginkaku immediately began to shake violently.

Almost simultaneously, Mito Uzumaki and Kushina Uzumaki intensified their attacks.

The two swung the Tailed Beast tentacles on their bodies, slapping them hard against Kinkaku Ginkaku.

Bang bang bang bang~

After a series of lashes, the Tailed Beast Chakra on Kinkaku and Ginkaku vanished like Utakata.

Then, Uzumaki Riori and Kushina Uzumaki acted simultaneously, immediately controlling the Tailed Beast Chakra to bind Kinkaku and Ginkaku together.

Seeing that the two were under control, Minato Namikaze quickly stepped forward, preparing to cast Genjutsu.

Just then, Hinata suddenly shouted from afar, "Everyone be careful! The Second Lord has disappeared!"

Hinata had been keeping an eye on Senju Tobirama's movements, and the Third Mizukage, whose Flying Thunder God Coordinates had been marked by Senju Tobirama, was also by her side.

Because only Hinata can limit Senju Tobirama's Flying Thunder God.

Upon hearing this, Minato Namikaze paused, drawing out Kunai preparation for Senju Tobirama's possible appearance at any moment.

But after waiting for two seconds, Senju Tobirama still did not appear.

Without further hesitation, Minato Namikaze immediately used Genjutsu to deal with Kinkaku Ginkaku.

The battlefield situation was unpredictable, and the Iwa ninja gave him no time to hesitate.

Regardless of Senju Tobirama went, his main task now is to deal with Kinkaku Ginkaku.

In addition to controlling Senju Tobirama to carry out missions, Sakura also deployed the people she could command to attack the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki, Kaze, and the Three-Tails Jinchuriki, Ao.

Among them, the wind was targeted by Hanzo, the Fourth Raikage, and Darui.

The three's attack completely stunned Feng.

This time, Hanzo went even further, directly releasing the toxins from the Ibuse inside his body.

Hanzo didn't expect the Ibuse's poison to kill Kaze quickly, but it would at least keep the Allied forces from getting close to provide support.

When arranging manpower, Sakura and her two companions focused on keeping an eye on the Reanimated Body of the Allied Forces, keeping them occupied and preventing them from having a chance to attack.

Those who survived were all poisoned by the Ibuse!

As expected, the allied forces were all taken aback when they saw this scene; the poison in Hanzo's body was Hanzo himself feared.

However, what happened next was completely unexpected for Sakura. Several living people from Konoha suddenly reached into their Ninja Tool Bag, took out some Antidote Pills, and swallowed them.

After they finished eating, they didn't forget to Mist ninja next to them.

Feng, who was being targeted by Hanzo and his two companions, took a handful of Antidote Pills.

This wasn't the first time Hanzo had used his poison; he had used it once before during the Joint Chunin Exams.

Therefore, Konoha had already developed a targeted antidote.

So although the survivors on the allied side were delayed for a while because of taking the antidote, they did not retreat.

After taking the antidote, they, like the Reanimated Body, reached out to the wind for help.

At this point, the numbers of the Iwa ninja and the allied forces were roughly equal.

Minato Namikaze and Naruto's group of four were dealing with Kinkaku Ginkaku, while Iwa ninja were ganging up on one person. The number of people left to rescue and block them was about the same.

However, the average strength of the remaining people was far superior to that of the allied forces.

The three strongest Iwa ninja are the Third Raikage, Mu, and Senju Tobirama.

However, the Third Raikage's Reanimated Body had been dispelled, Senju Tobirama was no longer present, and the Second Tsuchikage Mu also split in two and unable to unleash his full power.

On the Allied Forces side Kakashi, Sasuke, Hinata could each take on several opponents.

Kisame's strength also surpasses that of the Iwa ninja.

If all the living members of the Allied Forces were forced back by Hanzo's poison, then the Iwa ninja would definitely have the advantage, but unfortunately, Sakura's side miscalculated.

The poison from the Ibuse did not have the desired effect, and the coalition's rescue efforts far exceeded expectations.

On the Iwa ninja side, Sakura made Itachi Uchiha fight desperately to hold off Sasuke; this was Aono Shinichi's tactic.

Psychological warfare means that Sasuke might not use his full strength when facing Itachi Uchiha, even if it's just a Reanimated Body.

To this end, Sakura appropriately loosened her suppression of Itachi Uchiha's consciousness, allowing Itachi Uchiha and Sasuke to exchange a few words.

Sasuke didn't disappoint Sakura. He didn't really care much about Kaze's life or death. He probably knew that the Iwa ninja were stalling for time, but he still fell for their trap.

However, this was the only spot on the entire battlefield that favored the Iwa ninja, and Kakashi and Hinata's attacks were thwarted by the Iwa ninja.

Despite their superior strength, the allied forces still provided Feng with ample support.

Sakura couldn't win the battle, but she wasn't in a hurry. She had another goal: Blue!

Under Sakura's arrangement, there was only one person who could deal with Ao: Shisui Uchiha.

While Body Flicker Shisui is powerful, it's impossible for him to defeat Ao in a short time.

Therefore, the allied forces did not take this battle seriously.

This time, Shisui Uchiha did not use Genjutsu. He seemed to be entangled with Ao, preventing him from supporting Kaze, just like the others. He simply fought Ao using Body Flicker Technique and Taijutsu.

While everyone's attention was drawn to the battle in the wind, the light around Shisui Uchiha dimmed, and three people suddenly appeared.

These three are Senju Tobirama, Mu's other half, and Kakuzu.

Just then, Kakashi received a message from the Katsuyu: Senju Tobirama was going to support Mu.

Kakashi was puzzled when he heard this, because Katsuyu had just said that and then immediately added: Senju Tobirama and Mu have already dealt with the Three-Tails Jinchuriki.

Kakashi knew that Senju Tobirama was powerful, and that even the Three-Tails Jinchuriki and Kakuzu might not be his match.

But this defeat was far too swift!

Two against two, how long has it been since Senju Tobirama last appeared? He's already taken one down so quickly?

At this time, the Allied Forces' Minato Namikaze, Naruto, Mito Uzumaki, Kushina Uzumaki had not yet dealt with Kinkaku and Ginkaku.

It's worth noting that Minato Namikaze used a clever trick to deal with these two.

Furthermore, the Three-Tails Jinchuriki's side also had many Mist ninja Elite Jonin assisting in the battle.

Kakuzu and the Three-Tails Jinchuriki are not at a significant disadvantage.

However, Kakashi's doubts were quickly resolved when the little Katsuyu once again delivered accurate information.

Kakuzu his Reanimated Body form suddenly rebelled; somehow, he suddenly became uncontrollable.

Kakuzu broke free from the control of the Mist ninja, and stabbed the Three-Tails Jinchuriki in the back.

Caught off guard, the Three-Tails Jinchuriki was struck by a Combination Ninjutsu from behind by Kakuzu, and was severely injured on the spot.

Then, with the help of Mu and Senju Tobirama, he was successfully sealed away.

Then, without giving Kakashi and Minato Namikaze, Senju Tobirama used a Genjutsu to eliminate the Three-Tails Jinchuriki.

It turns out that Kakuzu was controlled by Obito Uchiha's Genjutsu Kotoamatsukami when he was absorbed into the Kamui Space by Shisui Uchiha.

However, it wasn't the best time for Kakuzu to directly defect, so according to the plan of Aono Shinichi and the other two, Kakuzu temporarily remained hidden within the Allied forces.

Kakuzu did not act against the controller's orders.

The hidden controller was also using the Impure World Reincarnation technique in battle for the first time; he had never encountered Kakuzu's situation before.

Although he found it strange, he didn't say anything since Kakuzu could still be controlled Kakuzu fight as before.

However, Kakuzu's rebellion no longer needed to be reported by the Katsuyu, as he had already joined forces with Senju Tobirama to attack Ao.

Seeing this, Kakashi disregarded his opponent and the danger to Ao, and appeared beside Ao in a flash.

Kakashi dared not delay; any slower and the Flying Thunder God Mark on Ao's body might be removed.

Senju Tobirama and the others were not surprised by Kakashi's reinforcements.

As soon as Kakashi appeared, he saw a blade of light slashing towards him; it was Body Flicker Shisui Technique attack.

Kakashi didn't have a chance to take Ao away directly, so he dodged in a flash.

At that moment, Kakuzu unleashed a barrage of Ninjutsu.

Poor Kakashi, he had barely appeared when he was driven away from Ao by a barrage of attacks from Shisui Uchiha and Kakuzu.

At that moment, Kakashi suddenly sensed that the Flying Thunder God Mark on Ao's body had disappeared.

Then, Kakuzu and Kakuzu used long-range Ninjutsu to hold off Kakashi, Senju Tobirama and Shisui Uchiha teamed up to deal with Ao, who was already badly injured.

At this moment, Minato Namikaze had just dealt with Kinkaku and Ginkaku, and he was free to help Ao, but he no longer had the Flying Thunder God Mark.

The rest of the allied forces were still engaged in battle where the wind was, some distance away from here.

It seemed that Ao was about to be defeated by Senju Tobirama and Shisui Uchiha.

Suddenly, Senju Tobirama felt a tremendous suction force on his body.

His body flew uncontrollably toward the direction where the Allied forces were.

He glanced sideways and saw out of the corner of his eye that the culprit was Hinata.

So Hinata's eyes also possess gravity-related Ninjutsu. She's really been hiding it well; was she waiting for me to reveal a weakness?

Upon seeing Hinata, Sakura, who was controlling Senju Tobirama, suddenly sensed something was wrong.

She immediately tried to control Senju Tobirama to escape using the Flying Thunder God, but panicked the next second.

Because the Flying Thunder God malfunctioned at that moment.

Despite his struggles, Senju Tobirama was eventually drawn to Hinata's side.

Seeing this, the allied forces knew that the time to secure victory had arrived.

All the Reanimated Body disregarded everything and cooperated with Hinata to attack Senju Tobirama.

Realizing the danger, the Iwa ninja also took action, launching attacks on the Allied Shinobi Forces ninjas without regard for the consequences.

It is hoped that the allied forces will abandon the siege of Senju Tobirama in order to minimize losses.

However, the Iwa ninja's plan was doomed to fail, and their attack was completely ignored by the allied forces.

Even when Hiruzen Sarutobi and White Fang Hatake were defeated by the Iwa ninja Senju Tobirama, the Allied Forces did not change their tactics in the slightest.

Senju Tobirama was only a beat slower than the two of them when he was cut in two by Sasuke's Susanoo.

Sasuke then immediately used Genjutsu on Senju Tobirama. Although Sasuke's Genjutsu skills were not high, Senju Tobirama still fell for it thanks to the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan.

Under Sasuke's Genjutsu control Senju Tobirama performed Hand Seals to dispel the Impure World Reincarnation.

This is the biggest loss for the Iwa ninja since the start of the war.

Of course, the Iwa ninja didn't come away empty-handed. Sakura, knowing things were hopeless, seized the opportunity to have Fugaku Uchiha and Obito Uchiha use Genjutsu: Release Hiruzen Sarutobi and White Fang.

However, this gain is far outweighed by the loss.

Furthermore, before Sasuke attacked Senju Tobirama, Itachi Uchiha Susanoo also been destroyed by him.

Sasuke then followed up with a punch that shattered Itachi Uchiha's body.

However, Itachi Uchiha ultimately used Izanagi, sacrificing one of his Mangekyō Sharingan to escape death.

Meanwhile, because Senju Tobirama was absorbed, the Iwa ninja's plan to besiege Ao also failed.

Shisui Uchiha alone was unable to kill Ao before Kakashi Wind Release: Breakthrough Mu and Kakuzu's support.

However, there is also good news: Qing is not Reanimated Body) after all; his injuries are genuine and he cannot recover as quickly as Reanimated Body.

Although Qing was still alive at this point, he had actually lost his fighting ability, and the allied forces had to divide their attention to take care of him.

After a fierce battle, the two sides tacitly separated again, intending to engage in a brief standoff.

As the two separated, Kisame immediately used the Katsuyu on his body to order his subordinates, who were hiding somewhere, "Quickly notify the Anbu to undo Kakuzu's Impure World Reincarnation."

While the Allied Forces were making moves, the Iwa ninja were not idle either.

Kakashi, who had just fought a dozen rounds with Mu, Kakuzu, Shisui Uchiha, suddenly heard a familiar yet unfamiliar voice.

"Kakashi!" The voice came from Obito Uchiha.

The voice contained so many emotions: nostalgia, surprise, resentment, and disappointment.

"Obito!" Kakashi answered, turning his head excitedly.

He concluded that the voice was definitely made by Obito through his own will, and was absolutely not controlled by someone else.

Sure enough, when Kakashi looked at Obito Uchiha, the first thing he saw was the complex look in Obito's eyes.

Kakashi, however, was too focused to notice the large, dark-colored jar next to Obito Uchiha.

Of course, even if Kakashi saw the jar by then, it would be too late.

Because his body was already flying towards the jar at an extremely fast speed.

As he flew past, Kakashi seemed to hear a voice. "Watch out, that's the Six Paths Tools, Amber Purifying Pot."

Before Kakashi could even react to what the Amber Purifying Pot was, he was sealed Obito Uchiha.

Of the Six Paths Tools obtained from the Cloud ninja, only this Amber Purifying Pot is worthy of Yichen's eye.

After carefully studying the functions of the Amber Purifying Pot, Aono Shinichi and his two companions felt that it would be very suitable for dealing with Kakashi.

However, this thing cannot be used right away. Kakashi has a wealth of combat experience and will not be easily fooled.

It must be used when he has been fighting for a long time and his attention has been diverted elsewhere.

Sure enough, when Kakashi had become accustomed to Obito Uchiha being controlled, he was immediately caught off guard by this sudden attack.

This sudden turn of events stunned everyone on the allied side.

Even though Kakuzu's Reanimated Body was dispelled by the caster not long afterward, they didn't realize what was happening.

Kakashi may not be the strongest on the Allied Forces side, but he is the de facto commander of the Allied Forces.

No one expected that Kakashi, who possessed the Flying Thunder God and whose strength was at least enough to take on three opponents at once, would be so easily defeated.

And there were absolutely no warning signs beforehand!

The Allied Forces couldn't accept it, but Sakura and her two companions from Iwa ninja weren't surprised at all.

This was all part of their pre-planned strategy.

Therefore, after Obito Uchiha blocked Kakashi with the Amber Purifying Pot, he immediately put the Amber Purifying Pot into the Kamui Space.
