Konoha in chaos!

"Boil Release: Boil Release: Skilled Mist Technique!" Mei Terumī opened her alluring little mouth and spewed out a highly corrosive Acid Mist.

Anything exposed to the Acid Mist, whether houses or trees, corrodes at a rate visible to the naked eye.

The appearance of the Box of Paradise was a signal to attack. The appointed time had not yet arrived, and although everyone was puzzled as to why it was brought forward, the die was cast.

Swish swish swish!!

Kakashi and several members of the Anbu arrived at the scene immediately, where they saw a layer of white acid Acid Mist spreading around the Mizukage.

The constant hissing and corroding sound irritated Kakashi's nerves.

"Lord Mizukage! Stop!" Kakashi's face darkened, and he shouted sharply, while secretly gesturing to the Anbu behind him to prepare to stop Mei Terumī.

Hearing Kakashi's voice, which seemed to be calling her, Mei Terumī glanced at Kakashi expressionlessly, then continued doing as she pleased.

The concentration of Acid Mist did not decrease; in fact, it increased significantly.

"The Acid Mist is coming! Back off!" Smoke rose from Kakashi's sleeves as he shouted and quickly retreated.

Kakashi could easily retreat and dodge the Mizukage's Boil Release, but while he could escape, the nearby villagers couldn't.

Even if the villagers can move out, the houses in this area cannot.

We must find a way to Shisui shadow; we can't let the Acid Mist continue to spread!

Boil Release combines water and fire chakra and spews out a highly corrosive Acid Mist from the mouth. The user can control the acidity of the Skilled Mist by adjusting the amount of chakra used.

A plan flashed through Kakashi's mind, and he beckoned the nearby Anbu to come closer.

"Gather the ninjas who know Wind Release; we don't need too many, two small teams will suffice!"

Upon hearing Kakashi's words, the Anbu immediately understood his intention: the Acid Mist created by Boil Release was extremely corrosive.

Mizukage Mei Terumī is also surrounded by Acid Mist; to attack her, one must enter the Acid Mist.

However, entering the Acid Mist will result in acid corrosion, which seems like an unsolvable problem. But in fact, the mist is controlled by the wind.

If everyone can combine their strength to create a strong wind to disperse the Acid Mist... then the rest will be a contest of chakra reserves!

"Understood!" The several Anbu nodded sharply and then vanished in Body Flicker Technique.

Despite finding a way to counter Boil Release, Kakashi showed no joy in his eyes; he stared solemnly in the direction of the Konoha gate.

A deafening roar, and the earth trembled violently.

Everyone told Kakashi that the situation outside the village was equally dire.

Since that giant, ghostly-faced box appeared in the direction of the Forest of Death, it was like a bomb thrown into a calm lake.

The entire Konoha erupted in excitement. Kakashi, as the Anbu Captain, was tasked with leading the team to eliminate the enemies within the village.

Outside the village, there's an unknown number of enemies; the situation is far from optimistic!

To reinforce the village's outer defenses, the internal fighting must be resolved as soon as possible. Kakashi turned his gaze towards the Forest of Death.

Wu is rampaging through the Forest...

Sudden!

Kakashi's pupils contracted sharply as he stared at the Forest of Death, noticing four purple light curtains rapidly rising around Forest of Death.

"Four Violet Flames Formation!"

Sakon, Tayuya, Kidomaru, Jirobo joined forces to create barriers at the four cardinal directions.

The Barrier Formation is surrounded by a light screen formed by purple flames. Anyone from outside who touches the four walls of the barrier will be burned by the flames.

Kakashi's heart sank to the bottom. Had the Forest of Death been completely isolated...?

Summoning Technique!

Bang!

A massive Mushroom Cloud shot into the sky, and an enormous Toad descended from the heavens, pressing down heavily on Wu.

Wu didn't look up, yet he seemed to know that a giant Toad was falling from above. With a single backward leap, he easily dodged the giant Toad's attack.

Gamabunta, a giant Toad living in Toad Village on Mount Myōboku, is also Jiraiya's Summoning Beast!

Jiraiya's idea was simple: to deal with the gigantic monster Satoru, he needed the equally gigantic Gamabunta to come and help.

Jiraiya Mirai Jiraiya to breathe a sigh of relief when he Gamabunta Bunta when he heard Sage Shima's startled cry.

"Jiraiya, look at the sky!"

"A purple light curtain? It's the Four Violet Flames Formation!" Jiraiya looked up and indeed saw a purple light curtain rising from each of the four sides of the Forest.

Tōka noticed the change in color in the sky Jiraiya.

The appearance of the Four Violet Flames Formation indicates that the Forest of Death has been isolated; outsiders cannot enter, and those inside cannot leave.

The Sound Four are pretty quick!

While Jiraiya's attention was drawn to the Four Violet Flames Formation, Tōka secretly gathered chakra in his palm, forming a miniature Vortex Storm.

Wind Release: Sandstorm!

Tōka waved his hand and flung out the miniature Vortex Storm from his palm!

Waaaaah!!

The Vortex Storm grew larger with the wind; what was merely the size of a palm a moment ago transformed into a massive tornado in the blink of an eye.

The violent force tore through space, uprooting a large grove of trees nearby.

The storm whipped up a sandstorm that surged wildly toward Jiraiya, blurring Wind and Sand vision and making Tōka's figure appear hazy.

"They're here!" Jiraiya immediately composed himself, knowing he couldn't afford to be careless in the slightest when facing such a formidable enemy as Tōka!

In an instant, a fierce wind arose, and the world changed color!

Dark clouds gathered in the sky, obscuring the sun and plunging the entire world into darkness.

Jiraiya lowered his body with a serious expression, gathering chakra in his feet, creating a suction force that pinned him to the ground.

The violent storm whipped up rubble from the ground, and the impact of the force sent sharp rubble flying towards Jiraiya like Shuriken.

"Be careful!" Sage Fukasaku warned solemnly.

"Ninja Art: Needle Jizo!" Jiraiya nodded slightly, his hands rapidly Hand Seals.

With a low shout, Jiraiya's snow-white hair grew wildly, transforming into sharp needles that enveloped his body.

Clang! Ding ding ding!

The pebbles and dry branches in the storm clattered against my hair with dull thuds.

Just as the Wind and Sand blurred their vision and the two sides were separated by the whirlwind, Tōka changed his seal Body Flicker Technique disappeared into the distance.

Fighting Jiraiya would be a waste of time for Tōka.

Unless... the technique that Eternal Tenseigan is used!

Tōka needs to be in top form to deal with that old guy. If that guess is correct, he can't afford to fight Jiraiya the death.

Tōka escaped using the storm as a cover, but he couldn't hide it Fukasaku the two Toad, Shima.

"Oh no, that kid's running away!" Sage Shima exclaimed, pointing in the direction Tōka had fled and shouting, "He went that way!"

Without time to think, Jiraiya couldn't wait for the storm to completely pass. He changed his hand seals, released the Jutsu Formula, gathered chakra in his legs, and then exploded into a powerful burst of energy.

With a whoosh, Jiraiya's body was launched into the sky like an arrow.

The Tree Shadow of the trees on both sides rushed past, receding rapidly...

In this chase, the Battlefield between Tōka and Jiraiya rapidly shifted towards the central Tower of the Forest of Death.

Jiraiya was fast, but he was nowhere near as fast as Tōka's Space-Time Ninjutsu.

In the blink of an eye, the lingering aura in the air completely vanished, and even Sage Shima, who was skilled at sensing enemies, could not find Tōka's whereabouts.

"Honey, I can't find that kid." Sage Shima shrugged, looking like he was helpless.

Jiraiya hearing this, Jiraiya immediately stopped and frowned as he looked around.

Without leaving a trace, Space-Time Ninjutsu is very troublesome...

After shaking off Jiraiya, Tōka immediately located Gaara, the One-Tail Jinchuriki Gaara Eternal Tenseigan.

Space was torn apart, and a pitch-black Vortex appeared in front of Tōka.

Beneath the lush and intricate Forest, the appearance of the Four Violet Flames Formation did not hinder the Genin squad's struggle for the Heaven and Earth Scroll; on the contrary, the back-and-forth battle became even more intense.

The most ruthless team is none other than Gaara's squad from Sunagakure, Gaara have already collected Heaven and Earth Scroll.

The battle continued, for one reason only: Gaara was not to seize the Heaven and Earth Scroll, but simply to kill.

After annihilating the three members of the Grass Ninja Squad, Gaara's murderous intent only intensified.

Along the stream, Gaara's team from Sunagakure blocked a group from Konoha.

"This is bad..." Shikamaru, sporting a pineapple-shaped hairstyle, never expected that they would encounter the team they least wanted to see.

The two sides immediately fell into a cold standoff, a chilling atmosphere spreading out, as if the air itself had frozen.

Suddenly, a strange Black Hole appeared above Gaara's head.

All eyes were drawn to it; the dark Vortex grew larger and larger, as if a rift had been torn open in space.

Gaara, his face grim, raised his hand and waved!

A massive Sandstorm immediately surged from the gourd behind him, Sandstorm into a gigantic hand that slammed down on the black Vortex in the sky.

At that moment, a ghostly shadow suddenly descended, landing lightly beside Gaara.

The movements appear slow, but are actually extremely fast.

Gaara didn't even have time to react before he heard a mocking voice beside him.

"Don't be so irritable, little panda!" Tōka put a hand on Gaara's shoulder, and the shimmering Green Light in his palm entered Gaara's body.

Suddenly, a dizzying sensation swept over him, and Gaara almost collapsed.

I felt completely weak, and my body went limp uncontrollably.

Gaara turned his head with difficulty, looking at the hand resting on his shoulder. His last thought before losing consciousness was: What did this guy do to me?!

"One-Tail Beast in hand!" Tōka's lips curled into a slight smile as he hoisted Gaara onto his shoulder.

Just as Tōka turned to leave...

A loud shout suddenly rang out!

"Let go of Gaara!"

Recovering from their brief shock, Kankuro and Temari simultaneously lunged at Tōka.

Kankuro took down his trump card from his back.

A strange creaking sound rang out, and the wrapped white bandages unfurled, revealing a bizarrely shaped mechanical puppet!

Kankuro moved his hands, Chakra Threads at the tips of his ten fingers connected to various parts of the puppet's body.

Clang clang clang!!

The hidden mechanisms on the puppet were activated, revealing a series of poisoned, sharp blades that still gleamed coldly in the dim forest.

Temari's movements were equally swift; her Three-Star Fan was already fully extended.

Tōka raised an eyebrow and glanced at the two who were rushing over regardless of the consequences, a ripple appearing on her calm heart.

The three are not only teammates, Gaara is also the younger younger brother of Temari and Kankuro.

I agree with them, but unfortunately they're enemies!

"You're too weak to save him!" Tōka raised his hand and waved it, instantly creating a gust of wind that sent the two charging men flying into the air.

Temari and Kankuro's bodies, like two kites with broken strings, traced an arc in the air and fell a hundred paces away, crashing heavily into the Bushes.

It seemed like a trivial matter. Tōka, carrying Gaara, turned around and stepped into that dark Vortex.

I don't know how much time has passed...

With a thud...

Ino's swallowing sound woke the two people beside her.

"That person seems to be..." Choji wiped away a cold sweat and said the first half of the sentence uncertainly.

"Tōka- sensei!" Shikamaru pursed his lips, his face grave as he took over the conversation, "The S-rank Rogue Ninja, Ōtsutsuki Tōka, who is currently wanted by the village!"

"What should we do?" Ino looked at Shikamaru anxiously.

"This is beyond our control. Let's get to the central Tower first." Shikamaru looked up at the purple light curtain in the sky, a strange look flashing in his eyes.

Something big is about to happen...

Tōka took Gaara away, not in a hurry to find the other Jinchūriki in the Forest of Death. He first came to a treacherous mountain forest.

A strange wind howled through the forest, like the wailing of a vengeful ghost demanding a life.

Even a ninja squad wouldn't easily set foot in such a place; Tōka's goal was to find a quiet place.

Tōka casually tossed Gaara aside and sat down against a boulder.

"Since you've come all this way, show yourself!"

The abrupt words rang out in the quiet Forest, echoing and sending chills down one's spine.

A breath passed...

The silent Forest remained completely still, still eerily sinister.

Two breaths passed...

A sudden gust of wind arose, causing the Tree Shadow to sway and the branches and leaves to rustle against each other, but there was still no response.

In silence...

The woods fell silent, a silence so profound it sent chills down one's spine.

"Did I guess wrong?" Tōka gave Gaara a strange look. Or was this guy not important enough?

He wasn't sure, just guessing, and said those things to lure out the guy lurking in the shadows.

"It doesn't matter if I guessed wrong, we already have the One-Tail, and next is the Nine-Tails." After pondering for a moment, Tōka decided to finish the battle quickly.

The appearance of the Box of Paradise was the signal that the plan was about to begin.

Now that we've already alerted them, let's see who's faster!

Tōka extended his right hand, his five fingers loosely clenched, and an extremely strong force emanated from his palm, instantly drawing Gaara's body into his palm.

Just then, a scorching wave of heat rushed from behind.

Fire Release: Great Flame Bullet!

The Kakkō illuminated the entire dark Forest...
