No big deal, die for him to see!

Minato's purpose in summoning Gamabunta was simple: to lure all the elite ninjas from the northeastern camp of Kumogakure.

On the Battlefield where giant Summoning Beast appear, the Raikage would absolutely not allow Genin or weak Chunin participate in the battle.

This was precisely the plan that Minato changed at the last minute.

Gamabunta draws the enemy's main force's attention, while Tōka, hidden in the shadows, strikes at the crucial moment.

At the same time, Minato also made a backup plan.

With his Byakugan Hyuga Hiashi could clearly observe all of this. When Tōka made his move, he immediately led Konoha's most elite Thousand-Ninja Force to infiltrate the Kumogakure camp.

They hunted Genin and Chunin from Kumogakure in order to reduce the Kumogakure's ninja population!

Under the inky darkness of night, shouts of battle shook the heavens.

One after another, shrill and high-pitched screams rang out, instantly causing an uproar throughout the entire Kumogakure camp.

"Damn it, we've fallen for their trap!" Just because the Raikage is big and burly doesn't mean he's all muscle and brains.

The commotion in the camp clearly told him that Minato Namikaze of Konoha was merely trying to draw the attention of most of the troops.

The real killer move is from behind...

"Damn it! Take some men and guard the Medical Department and the Warehouse!" Raikage roared, spittle flying everywhere, before turning his gaze back to the sky.

The Hokage shouldn't die in that area enveloped by the Dust Release light, right?

Sudden!

With a whoosh, something like a pebble fell and landed squarely on a small rock in front of Raikage's feet.

Due to its excessive speed, the Bone Bullets pierced through the rock and penetrated deep into the solid stone.

The sharp-eyed Raikage noticed the fleeting gray shadow, the familiar aura of decay, the familiar gray Withered Bones.

Is it that brat's ability?

Raikage's pupils contracted sharply, and he quickly focused his gaze.

Just then, Raikage saw Tōka Hand Seals high in the sky. Instantly, his expression changed drastically, and he shouted loudly.

"All-Killing Ash Bones! We absolutely cannot take this head-on, everyone find somewhere to hide!"

As Raikage finished speaking, whoosh whoosh whoosh!!

Countless Bone Bullets fell densely like raindrops, filling the sky and almost completely covering an area within a hundred meters.

An atmosphere of terror spread, and the shadow of death loomed over everyone's hearts.

Some people may not be afraid of death, but no one is unafraid of waiting for death to come.

The elite Cloud Ninja around the Raikage were thrown into a panic, fleeing in all directions in confusion.

They could either seek cover, dodge with agility, or use other methods to avoid Tōka's wide-range attacks.

Ōnoki was floating in the air, suddenly turned pale. He hadn't even noticed when Tōka had flown up to his head!

No, from the very beginning, Ōnoki never even noticed Tōka's existence!

Disgraceful, utterly disgraceful!

With a whoosh, Ōnoki's body felt light and he floated up.

The All-Killing Ash Bones - Bone Rain Scatter involves shooting vertebrae into the air, where they then transform into raindrop-sized Bone Bullets that fall to the ground.

Ōnoki avoided the area covered by the bone rain and went directly to Tōka's side.

Two dry, bare palms were extended towards Tōka, fingers slightly spread, and pressed down in mid-air.

"Dust Release: Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique!"

Sensing Ōnoki's presence and a life-threatening white beam of light, Tōka felt a chill run down his spine. Suspended in mid-air, he had nowhere to grip and could not change direction.

Moreover, he had just used a powerful attack, which consumed a significant amount of chakra.

The range and intensity of the technique "All-Killing Ash Bones: Bone Rain Scatter" can also be controlled based on the chakra released by Tōka.

In order to completely cover the Flying Thunder God Vacuum Zone created by the Raikage, Tōka directly consumed half of his chakra expansion Jutsu Formula.

Moreover, the density of Bone Bullets is much higher than that of ordinary ones.

At that moment, Ōnoki unleashed a Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique, Tōka's pupils constricted; he had never felt so powerless.

Buzz!

A flash of white light engulfed Tōka's body in an instant.

"It's done?" Ōnoki was slightly taken aback, feeling that the success was a bit too easy. Why didn't the Hokage intervene?

However, he could no longer sense Tōka's presence!

Puff puff puff!!

A gust of wind that cut through the air caught Ōnoki's attention.

Bone Rain Scatter, like a torrential downpour of Bone Bullets that rained down on the Cloud Ninja.

Some unlucky Cloud Ninja didn't react at all and were pierced straight through by Bone Bullets. Even a tiny wound was enough to be fatal!

The Bone Bullets pierced through the skin and flesh and entered the body, and decay began to spread from the wound.

The wounded Cloud Ninja all turned into scraps of paper...

Flying everywhere!

Upon seeing this, Ōnoki narrowed his small eyes slightly, his pupils gleaming with delight.

Despite being allied with the Kumogakure, he would be pleased if the Kumogakure suffered a loss or the Raikage was humiliated!

"Tsk tsk... Raikage, you've suffered a huge loss this time!" Ōnoki floated in the air with a smile, seemingly having no intention of helping.

With Ōnoki's mastery of Earth Release, a simple defensive Earth Release Ninjutsu like Earth Flow Rampart or Earth Release: Earth Shore Return would be enough to save most of the Cloud Ninja.

But why would he do that?

Many Cloud Ninja reacted quickly and decisively used Body Flicker Technique to escape the range of the bone rain.

Unfortunately, they forgot something even more important.

That's the even more fatal point!

The area covered by the bone rain was exactly the Vacuum Zone created by the Raikage using the Flying Thunder God technique.

Once you leave the area of bone rain, you leave this vacuum zone where there are no Three-Pronged Kunai.

In other words, they entered the Flying Thunder God Technique hunting area of Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze.

Whoosh!

A golden light flashed, and a sharp Kunai sliced through the throat of an Elite Jonin. He seemed to have no idea what was happening.

Everything went black, Elite Jonin collapsed to the ground, completely losing consciousness.

"I'm sorry, Tōka, I hope you can hold on a little longer!" Minato glanced at the dark night sky and thought to himself.

Whoosh!

Golden Flash flickered in the inky night, wielding Three-Pronged Kunai that resembled the scythe of Shinigami.

The sunny, friendly neighbor boy disappeared, replaced by Yellow Flash that exuded a chilling, murderous aura!

Every time Minato Namikaze raises his hand, he takes the life of a Cloud Ninja.

In just a few breaths, no fewer than twenty elite Cloud Ninja died.

Within the vacuum zone, Raikage, dodging the Bone Bullets, stared at Minato with bloodshot eyes, his gaze fixed on him like that of a crazed beast.

A fierce and violent aura suddenly erupted.

"Stop it right now!!"

The Raikage's furious roar only resulted in another flash of golden light; how could Minato possibly be intimidated by the Raikage's aura?

"Form the formation! Form the Manji Formation!"

Raikage's powerful voice resounded across the Battlefield, and many Cloud Ninja reacted quickly, standing back to back and warily watching the 120-degree field of vision in front of them.

At the same time, the Raikage clasped his hands together, unleashing a torrent of violent Lightning Release Chakra, and stomped his foot.

The ground beneath their feet cracked open, and the fissures in the darkness visibly spread in all directions.

Rocks flew everywhere, and countless fragments of stone floated into the air around Raikage.

Sizzle...

Arcs of electricity faintly enveloped his body, and flashes of lightning were dazzling!

Boom!

Raikage touched the ground with one foot, took a step forward, and instantly transformed into a bolt of lightning, frantically attacking the Golden Flash.

By Lightning Release: Cellular Activation, the Raikage pushed his speed to its limit.

"Lightning Oppression Horizontal Chop!"

A loud shout rang out!

The Raikage leaped into the air, his Lightning Release Chakra frantically gathering in his palm. He then swooped down, delivering a palm strike towards Minato Namikaze!

A terrifying force tore through the darkness, and a lightning-fast blade flashed in the air.

Minato frowned slightly, then glanced calmly at the Raikage. To knowingly do something futile was foolish!

"Knowing full well that you're slower than me, you still want to win in terms of speed?" A sneer flashed in Minato's eyes.

"Raikage, you're too slow!"

Swish!

Yellow Flash disappeared from the spot; the Raikage's hand blade slashed down at the waist, but struck the afterimage left by Minato.

Sudden!

A muffled thud sounded, very close by, and clearly reached my ears.

The Raikage quickly turned his head and saw Minato's Three-Pronged Kunai slash through the Minato, slicing open the neck of a Cloud Ninja.

A burst of glaring blood splattered out, drawing a poignant blood trail in the air.

"Is all you can do to run? Hokage!!" The Raikage roared angrily, veins bulging on his forehead.

"This is called tactics, and this is Battlefield!" Minato remained unmoved; he was no ordinary Third Hokage.

By joining forces with Kumogakure to launch an attack during Konoha's Chunin Ninja Exams, Iwagakure had already violated the greater good.

Since we've started this war, we must be prepared to be killed.

In a battle, it's a fight of blows, one side hitting the other, the other hitting the other, until one side is completely unable to stand up.

A sneak attack? That's just one of my tactics for "hitting you"!

"Tsuchikage, have you had enough of the show?" The Raikage was helpless against Minato; no matter how strong his attacks were, they were useless because they couldn't hit him.

"Hehe... Seeing you two young people getting along so well, this Old Man feels embarrassed to interfere!" Ōnoki said with a smile, arms crossed.

It would be best if the Kumogakure and the Konoha fought to the death, and even better if the Hokage and the Raikage both died in battle!

Ōnoki isn't stupid; even as allies, whoever has the bigger fist has more say!

The Raikage was so angry that the veins on his forehead bulged. If it weren't for Ōnoki flying high in the sky, it would have been difficult for him to attack.

I would have thrown a punch long ago!

While Ōnoki may be playing a minor role, he shouldn't really provoke the Raikage, since they share a common interest in jointly attacking Konoha.

The Kumogakure also suffered significant losses, with at least dozens of Elite Chunin and Jonin killed in action.

"Raikage, I'll help you from the air!" Ōnoki felt that the Cloud Ninja were almost exhausted, so he decided to step in and stop Minato Namikaze.

After all, there were still many elite Konoha ninjas launching a sneak attack from behind the Kumogakure camp.

Once the Kumogakure's main camp is crippled by the Konoha, the Iwagakure's main camp will also be unable to hold on alone.

However, Ōnoki only wants to stop Minato Namikaze and make him fight the Hokage to the death? Impossible!

"Hmph!" Raikage snorted coldly, suppressing his anger, and turned his gaze back to Minato Namikaze.

Minato, who had just defeated a Minato Cloud Ninja a single move, paused in his action as he was suddenly targeted by two Kage-level. Even Minato had to be on high alert.

Although Ōnoki and the Raikage couldn't Minato, they planned to launch a surprise attack on the other Cloud Ninja while the two Kage-level were locked on by their auras.

Even Minato cannot be completely foolproof.

"It seems that's Hiashi for today. Let Hiashi and the others handle the rest." Minato's expression turned serious as he dealt with the Raikage and Tsuchikage.

The auras of the three Kage-level suddenly erupted, making the atmosphere heavy and oppressive.

The Raikage quickly made a hand gesture, signaling the weaker elite Elite Chunin and Special Jonin to stay away from the area.

In the face of Kage-level like Minato Namikaze, even Elite Jonin are nothing more than weaklings among weaklings.

It's enough to leave some to hold them back; there's no need to leave them all here.

As if unable to bear the oppressive atmosphere, Ōnoki moved first. His eyes turned cold, and he slowly opened his arms, which had been clasped in front of his chest.

A terrifying surge of chakra frantically gathered in his palm...

A flash of white light—it was the starting stance of Dust Release!

Sudden!

Just as Ōnoki was about to unleash the Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique, a familiar yet unfamiliar aura emanated from a corner.

"How is that possible?!"

"Wasn't that kid killed by the Tsuchikage's Dust Release?" The Raikage exclaimed in astonishment.

Minato opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing in them, revealing an expression of "I knew it."

He guessed that Tōka possessed a Secret Technique that allowed her to evade a fatal blow from Kage-level.

During the Chunin Ninja Exams, the Raikage launched two full-force sneak attacks, both of which were evaded by Tōka's strange ability.

All of this happened right under Minato's nose, so he naturally took it to heart.

"This brat, it seems he was also..." Ōnoki recalled when Minato led Tōka deep into the Land of Earth to launch a surprise attack on the Kitsuchi Supply Unit.

At that time, his Dust Release seemed to have hit the brat in front of him as well, but the brat is still alive and kicking.

Ōnoki's body gradually became heavier, and he slowly floated down to the ground.

Ultra-Light-Weight Rock Technique, an enhanced version of Earth Release: Light- Light-Weight Rock Technique, grants the user the ability to fly!

"Kid, how did you dodge my Dust Release?" Ōnoki floated in front of Tōka, staring intently at Tōka and asking in a deep voice.

His gaze remained fixed on Tōka 'Tōka face, not missing any subtle changes in her expression.

Tōka took a deep breath. In the moment when he was enveloped by the Dust Release, he had almost forgotten about the Six Harmonies Divine Technique.

The clone created by the Tsuchi-e no Jutsu possesses all the abilities of the Original Body, including the bloodstains.

This is also why Tōka was able to survive.

Tōka stared at Ōnoki with a blank expression, as if he were looking at an idiot.

Villains die from talking too much. How could someone who doesn't understand such a simple truth become the Tsuchikage? How did they survive until now?

"Kid, your gaze is really unpleasant!" Feeling Tōka's disdainful look, Ōnoki's face immediately darkened.

An invisible aura emanated from the space, compressing it.

Tōka felt his breath catch in his throat; the aura of a veteran Kage-level was indeed extraordinary!

He already only had 30% of his Original Body chakra, and after unleashing a massive Bone Rain Scatter, he had even less chakra left.

Although the Six Harmonies Divine Technique doesn't use much chakra, even a small amount is still something!

Facing Ōnoki and the Raikage, Tōka felt a headache coming on. He glanced at Minato not far away; that guy was unreliable...

The thought of running out of chakra made Tōka feel terrible.

"Even the most bizarre abilities have weaknesses!" Raikage was quick-tempered. With One Flash of lightning, he swung his fist and charged straight at Tōka.

He sensed a strong killing intent and the Raikage's determined gaze.

Tōka's eyes gradually turned cold, his chilling gaze like that of a small beast whose inherent ferocity had been unleashed.

Don't underestimate people!

The Six Harmonies Divine Technique: Golden Wheel Nine Revolutions!

All-Killing Ash Bones - Earth Spear Pierce!

Tōka gritted his teeth, his deep black eyes seemingly able to suck people in, and stared indifferently at Raikage who was rushing towards him.

With his hands clasped together, the last of his chakra surged wildly within him...
