On the Fifth Division battlefield.
Houka's Shadow Clones not only rescued Ino Yamanaka, Shino Aburame, and Inuzuka Kiba from Roshi, the Four-Tails' Jinchuriki, but also ran into the Jinchuriki of the Two-Tails, Five-Tails, and Six-Tails.
These people felt much the same as Roshi. None of them wanted to fight the shinobi from their own villages, and they followed behind Houka's Shadow Clones with an attitude that practically begged to be beaten up, killed, and sealed.
The moment Mifune saw this, he was overjoyed. He immediately gathered a large number of Elite Jonin, intending to take down all four troublesome opponents in one fell swoop!
Of course, these people alone were nowhere near enough.
Mifune found one of Houka's Shadow Clones and asked for his help with the Fifth Division.
After hearing Mifune's request, Houka's Shadow Clone looked troubled. They could not afford to be distracted right now—they had to focus on practicing shot put. No, no, they had to focus on finding Kinkaku and Ginkaku.
Still, Mifune's request could not simply be ignored. After all, he was the commander-in-chief of the Allied Shinobi Forces.
After agreeing, Houka's Shadow Clones immediately began gathering together, drawing Roshi and the other three Jinchuriki toward the same spot.
As soon as the Jinchuriki converged, they understood that Houka was about to make his move.
"Is he planning to seal all of us at once?" Karatachi Yagura, the Fourth Mizukage and also the Six-Tails' Jinchuriki, held a flowered club upside down, his expression uneasy. "Though we do hope he can do it, our wills cannot control our actions."
"Don't worry. Uchiha Houka is very strong," Roshi said. He had fought Houka several times during the Third Shinobi World War and knew just how powerful he was.
"Let's hope so."
Yugito, the Two-Tails' Jinchuriki, snorted coldly.
