Younger Raikage Attacks! I'm Fighting Younger Raikage? For Real? Hyuga Shin, Destined to Be Cannon Fodder

The moment he finished speaking, he sensed a dangerous aura rapidly approaching!

So fast!!

Hyuga Shin's body tensed instantly. The air around him seemed to grow heavy, slowing even his breathing by half a beat.

Through the Byakugan, Hyuga Shin ran toward the camp while observing behind him.

"Lightning Release Chakra Mode!" By stimulating his already incredible speed with a Lightning Release technique, a young man came rushing over at tremendous speed!

So, so fast!

What kind of speed was this?!

This was bad. He was about to be caught!!

Panic surfaced in Hyuga Shin's heart, but those emotions vanished in an instant.

Bang!

A bolt of lightning suddenly burst from the young man's hand!

"Lightning Release: Lightning Fist!"

Yet Hyuga Shin narrowly dodged it!

"Hm?" The young man was puzzled.

He had merely missed one opportunity, but that meant he had lost it completely.

He had already been discovered in advance, and the young man had relied on his unparalleled speed to close in for the kill.

"I thought I'd be able to kill someone from the Hyuga Clan. Looks like I still need more training." The young man sighed before pursuing him again.

Hyuga Shin was frantic, but he also felt fortunate. Thankfully, he had not panicked just now.

He returned to the camp, and by then, many Konoha Ninja had already rushed out.

Their commander was a jonin named Sarutobi Hiyori. His combat strength was relatively poor among jonin, which made Hyuga Shin somewhat uneasy.

"Are you all right, Shin?" Uchiha Miya landed beside him, her eyes already transformed into Two Tomoe.

"I almost died... Miya, be careful. The other side is incredibly strong," Hyuga Shin said.

"Hmph. I was prepared for this long ago."

Without another word, the battle erupted.

Hyuga Shin's gaze sharpened as well.

He was only a Chunin, but he quickly charged toward an enemy.

"Gentle Fist Style: Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms!"

After a fierce struggle, Hyuga Shin personally killed a Kumogakure ninja.

However, he was also utterly exhausted.

The next moment, he felt as if he were being watched by a beast.

Hyuga Shin looked over and saw that it was the young man.

"As expected of one of Konoha's great clans. But I'm not weak either!"

"What...!! Commander Sarutobi... Miya...!" Hyuga Shin was drenched in sweat when he saw that several top fighters on their side were struggling to deal with that young man.

"My name is A! I'm the man who will become the Raikage!" said the dark-skinned young man. His voice was filled with confidence and coldness, and his frigid gaze locked onto Hyuga Shin!

He stepped forward! Bang! The ground instantly shattered beneath him, and then he charged straight at Hyuga Shin!

Hyuga Shin's mind went blank.

Younger Raikage A had been careless before, allowing Hyuga Shin to escape by sheer luck. But now, Hyuga Shin was facing A at full strength!

The aura of death came rushing straight at him.

This was war!

They could win a battle and leave while chatting because the ones who had died belonged to another village.

But when they encountered an enemy this powerful, it would be them who died!

"!"

Suddenly.

Younger Raikage A halted, abruptly pulled away, and even made a dodging motion.

Hyuga Shin: "?"

Younger Raikage A: "..."

The next moment, Hyuga Shin felt himself being controlled by fear. That negative emotion surged toward him like a flood, instantly taking over his mind.

He turned and ran!

And for some reason, he ran incredibly fast!

"After him!" Younger Raikage A ordered from behind!

Time rewound to when Hyuga Shin was fighting a Kumogakure Chunin.

The two had fought evenly.

Inside Hyuga Shin's body.

Amid a Sea of Corpses and Blood.

Su Nuo sat high above it all, propping one hand against his cheek in an imposing pose.

"So that's how it is."

"I understand..."

"Hyuga Shin's strength is undoubtedly at the Chunin level. It isn't too high or too low—he is simply at the Chunin level. Since he possesses the Byakugan, he can bring out its abilities, allowing him to kill an enemy Chunin."

"Previously, Hyuga Shin and Uchiha Miya had also experienced a war, and their unit annihilated a small Kumogakure force."

"It was during that time that Uchiha Miya rebuked the other Civilian Ninja."

"So Younger Raikage A came for revenge."

"Thus, in the original timeline, this branch-family youth of the Hyuga Clan and the Two Tomoe Chunin of the Uchiha Clan would be defeated and die here."

The main combatants in the Third Shinobi World War were people born in their twenties—in other words, those born between Konoha's Year 20 and Year 30. They were sixteen to twenty-seven years old at this time. In the world of Naruto, sixteen was precisely when one was at their peak.

"A member of the Sarutobi Clan was serving as commander, and they had already achieved quite a few victories. That was enough to show that this man was a commander above the passing grade."

"The team includes the Hyuga Clan and the Uchiha Clan, both great clans..."

"I also saw the surnames of several smaller ninja clans among the ranks."

"This Konoha unit could be considered elite."

"Unfortunately... they encountered Younger Raikage A."

During the Third Shinobi World War, Konoha produced Namikaze Minato, who was terrifyingly powerful. But Kumogakure also had a young powerhouse who stood in a league of his own.

That was the Fourth Raikage—Younger Raikage A at this time.

"As expected, I've transmigrated into a character destined to be cannon fodder..."

Su Nuo pondered.

However, he was not worried.

Although he was not strong now, compared with the original Sukuna, he should only be at the level of one finger.

But Hyuga Shin was not a specialized "vessel" like Itadori Yuji, so Su Nuo could control Hyuga Shin's body.

However, people from the Shinobi World were different from modern people. They were essentially living plants, with cell counts far exceeding those of normal humans. Moreover, this world possessed all kinds of secret techniques. Su Nuo did not intend to emerge immediately. He planned to slowly recover his strength.

Although he could immediately seize control of Hyuga Shin's body... there was no need to do so.

Besides.

The A and B Combination—A and Killer B—should be acting together. Where was Killer B at this moment?

That was what concerned Su Nuo.

As for the threat posed by Younger Raikage A before him, he could release a slash through a sneak attack, using Cleave when the opponent closed in.

Or, once the technique had already been released, he could use Tsubaki.

However, his Chakra was currently limited. Facing a Kage Level fighter from this world, he still needed to test how powerful Tsubaki's lethality was.

Tsubaki required contact with the opponent before it could be released, while its destructive power depended on the difference and strength of the cursed techniques between both sides.

In other words, it was a divine skill for bullying the weak...

But Younger Raikage A's Chakra should not be low either.

So it would be better to release a Cleave at close range. As one of the few skills in this world with no startup, Su Nuo could cut off Younger Raikage A's head amid the intelligence warfare that dominated ninja battles.

Although it was somewhat despicable.

Su Nuo did not think there was anything wrong with it.

The information gap was an important factor in ninja warfare to begin with.

"Speaking of which... why didn't Gojo Satoru react in time?"

"Mahoraga unlocked Space Slash. Didn't it already cut off one of Gojo Satoru's hands?"

"Did he let his guard down because he thought he was about to defeat me? Did he fail to anticipate that I would use a binding vow to perform Space Slash?"

"To me, it looked more like a contrived death scene written by some divine manga artist."
