After making tactical plans, the ninja army of the clans resolutely launched their attack. Their very first strike involved countless explosive tags, blanketing and covering a zone hundreds of meters around.
Rumble...
The rumbling sounds merged into one, and the blazing fire swallowed everything.
The ninja of the Mizukage faction were stunned by this move, failing to understand how those rebels managed to get so many explosive tags.
This was the ultimate trump card the Hozuki Clan had prepared for many years; the true power of the explosive blades had never been shown to the outside world.

They had originally not planned to use this killer move so soon, but now they had no choice.
"Kill! Whoever can slay the Third, he will be the Fourth!"
After the explosions ceased, Hozuki Chigetsu brandished the Kubikiribōchō with a roar, charging first toward the Mizukage Building that had already been bombed into ruins.
The ninja in the rear also charged out with excitement and fanaticism; they were truly fighting for their lives.

Although the previous explosive tags had given him a great shock, fortunately he had made preparations, and the majority of his manpower had hidden into the underground tunnel below, leaving his side still holding the advantage.
Furthermore, he was no weakling!
Both sides engaged in a fierce battle right
