The rescue team, with bloodshot eyes, stepped on the ice, riding the rolling mudslide, rumbling down from above.

Nara Shikaku, the old cunning fox, showed his potential without a doubt. The route he chose, after descending the dirt mountain, only had a small uphill section in the area they had just fought, with clear downhill slopes afterward.

With a rumbling sound like the sky collapsing and the earth shattering, they attracted wave after wave of attackers trying to stop them. Despite their best efforts to intercept, some were swept away, while others couldn't keep up and could only watch them charge past.

By the time they reached the foot of the mountain, half the water had already receded. But the danger level had not diminished at all!

Below, the Konoha ninja, surrounded by a large number of enemy ninja, had been significantly slowed down.

When they broke through, there were originally over forty elite Jonin. Now, only seventeen or eighteen people were still standing properly, the rest were either moaning on the ground or dead. And the ones standing were all injured and wounded.

Actually, at first, he refused to let Danzo lead the team. How could someone who cherished his own life so much put himself in danger?

But that woman, Pakura, had set her sights on him. Wherever he went, that woman would lead people to chase him. It made Danzo grit his teeth in hatred!

The one leading the encirclement and suppression of the Four-Tails Jinchuriki, Roshi, was from the Land of Earth. Only Pakura and Roshi could barely cooperate; the others couldn't cooperate with Roshi at all. The lava was simply too overbearing.

Roshi had a tail behind his backside, and his entire body was covered in lava. Roshi launched a fierce barrage of attacks at Danzo.

Danzo's left arm hung limply, and his right hand was covered in burns. His hair was messy, and a large part of his upper body clothing was also burned. Danzo fled in disarray, not daring to confront Roshi head-on.

Upon hearing the sound of water, Danzo and Jiraiya visibly relaxed, finally seeing a glimmer of hope.

Their mission was to lure the enemy, not to die.

Now they were just waiting for enough people to arrive so that the main force could retreat from another direction, and they could use the Flying Thunder God Technique to escape.

A rumbling sound had just reached them, and a vast wave of water arrived.

Roshi and Pakura looked up and were instantly stunned by the scene on the mountain, forgetting to attack. The others were also awestruck by the overwhelming momentum.

The Iwa-ninjas who were attacking quickly gathered behind Roshi, seeking his protection.

Seizing this opportunity, Danzo and Jiraiya, along with the mobile Konoha ninja, pulled the wounded and ran to the side.

Roshi gritted his teeth and quickly began to form hand seals, shouting, "Stop for me, Lava Release; Granite Formation!"

With a boom, a rock wall, five to six meters thick, over ten meters wide, and four to five meters high, glowing red, appeared in front of Roshi.

Pakura saw this and broke out in a cold sweat. Disregarding any camaraderie, she abandoned her troops and turned to run.

Roshi could no longer pay attention to Pakura's actions. If they didn't stop the hundred-meter-high wave, they would all be washed to the bottom of the river!

Shikaku saw the lava wall blocking their path, glowing red, and shouted, "Hanta, change it to ice, quickly!"

Hanta gritted his teeth, slammed his hands on the mudslide, and shouted, "Turn into ice for me!"

With a boom, the rolling black river instantly turned into a giant ice block over three hundred meters long, forty meters wide, and nearly ten meters thick, filled with something!

Minato's face was covered in sweat, his eyes wide and red, and he shouted, "Go!"

The people on the ice quickly ran to Danzo and Jiraiya, falling to the ground with thuds!

Roshi: (¬_¬)

Roshi: "Pakura, you %$#..."

With a boom, Roshi and the nearby Iwa-ninja were crushed by the hot water and vegetation, stones, and fell into the nearby river that led directly to the Land of Rain with splashes.

Danzo and Jiraiya stared with wide eyes as fifty to sixty people were instantly swept into the river leading to the Land of Rain, like dumplings being thrown in.

Hanta, standing beside Danzo, wiped the sweat from his forehead and panted like a bellows for a long time before saying, "What do we do with so many left? My chakra is depleted!"

At this moment, the Iwa-ninja and Suna-ninja chasing down from the mountain were almost upon them.

Danzo looked around and felt that it should be about enough.

If they couldn't break through like this, he would kill Mitarai Zixiao when he got back.

At this moment, Jiraiya said, "Prepare to engage, we'll retreat after blocking one wave." Then he said to Minato, "Minato, can you handle that jutsu?"

Minato scratched his head and said, "Don't worry, Jiraiya-sensei."

Minato grinned, wiped the blood from his face, and took out a small blue bottle, shaking it and saying, "This is a chakra recovery potion that Hanta gave me. It's very effective. It can restore one-third of my chakra in about ten seconds."

Jiraiya and Minato threw Flying Thunder God Kunai forward together and quickly formed hand seals.

Jiraiya shouted, "Ninjutsu; Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu."

Minato Namikaze also shouted, "Ninjutsu; Shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu."

Danzo glanced at them and followed suit, forming hand seals.

Danzo shouted, "Wind Release; Great Blow."

Special kunai, covering the mountainside, flew towards the slope. The enemy, who had blocked these kunai with various techniques, hadn't even had time to catch their breath when they heard Minato, that goofball, shout, "Ninjutsu; Spiral Flash Super Round Roar Three Forms."

Hanta and the others: (⁄ ⁄•⁄⁄•⁄ ⁄) (⁄ ⁄•⁄⁄•⁄ ⁄) (⁄ ⁄•⁄⁄•⁄ ⁄) (⁄ ⁄•⁄⁄•⁄ ⁄)

Hanta, who was crouching on the ground, burst out laughing. Although the name was ridiculous, a golden light flashed everywhere, like a beautiful yet cruel meteor shower.

Minato fell to the ground beside Hanta with a thud, gulping down the magic potion and gasping for breath.

It was as if the world had been paused. The Iwa-ninja and Suna-ninja rushing down stood still.

Suddenly, an Iwa-ninja fell to the ground with a thud, and then it seemed to trigger a chain reaction, with a large number falling down. Only a scattered few remained standing intact, and the sounds of moaning and screaming instantly filled the air.

It was as if they had instantly arrived in hell. The bloody and cruel scene stunned everyone into silence for a long time.

A female Jonin suddenly fell to the ground with a thud, muttering unconsciously, "An illusion, it's all an illusion. Hahaha, it's a lie, it's all a lie."

Then she frantically made hand seals and shouted, "Release, release! Why can't this genjutsu be released!"

Even if this person survived, they were finished; they had gone insane.

At this moment, Shikaku slapped Obito with a pa. Obito cried out, "Why did you hit me?"

Shikaku slapped his own face and said, "It seems it's not an illusion!"

Shikaku wanted to say more, but his expression suddenly changed, and he shouted, "Be careful, Bing San!"

Pakura, with a patch of green grass on her head, burst out from underground with a ferocious expression, charging straight at Bing San with kunai in both hands.

Bing San only had time to look back once! With a thwack, a warm liquid splashed all over Bing San's face.

With a thump, Danzo fell backward, a gleaming, green kunai embedded to the hilt in his lower abdomen.

Everyone was instantly shocked and pale. Forgetting to turn around and look at Pakura, who had jumped into the steaming hot river, they rushed to Danzo's side.

Bing San stammered, shouting at Danzo, whose eyes were half-closed, "Wh-why, why, my lord?"

Danzo said weakly, his breath shallow, "Konoha, is very important, you, even more..."

In an instant, this dark, cold-blooded, and unscrupulous man lost consciousness!
