The Third Hokage Led the Ninja Against the Nine-Tails!

Spirit Hall, Worship Hall

"There's actually a beast with a million years of cultivation?!"

Qian Daoliu stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze fixed tightly on the Nine-Tails within the Sky Screen, his expression incomparably grave.

"This Nine-Tails is not merely terrifyingly large. The power contained within its body is vast and boundless, like an endless ocean. Ordinary Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts cannot compare to it at all! It truly deserves to be called a Million-Year Soul Beast!"

Golden Crocodile Douluo nodded heavily at his side, his face full of emotion. "This old man has faced Hundred-Thousand-Year Ferocious Beasts before, but compared to this Nine-Tails, they are practically ants. A Million-Year Soul Beast! If it had a Spirit Ring, just how powerful would it be?!"

The other Worship Hall elders were equally shaken. They had never imagined that creatures from the Outer Continent could be this powerful.

At that moment, Mighty Lion Douluo suddenly frowned and pointed at the Masked Man in the Sky Screen as he spoke in a deep voice.

"Big Brother, did you notice? That masked man who appeared out of nowhere has three tomoe in his eyes, exactly like Xiao Zhi's Martial Soul!"

Everyone immediately realized it and stared closely at the screen, all nodding in agreement.

Guang Ling Douluo slowly said, "I spend the most time with Yu Zhi, so I understand his Sharingan best. It evolved step by step into its Three-Tomoe form. In that case, this Masked Man and Xiao Zhi must come from the same bloodline clan."

Qian Daoliu's gaze deepened as he slowly nodded. "Indeed! Yu Zhi's Sharingan is inherently extraordinary. It can absorb negative emotions and evolve on its own."

"Yet I only learned today that this Martial Soul can even control space and perform such bizarre techniques. It seems I still underestimated the Sharingan!"

The Worship Hall elders all deeply agreed.

If they had not already seen the unfathomable potential of Yu Zhi's Martial Soul, they would never have so readily agreed to make an unknown young outsider the Martial Soul Hall Saint as an exception.

Spirit Hall, Pope Palace

Bibi Dong quietly watched the rotating Three-Tomoe Sharingan in the Masked Man's eye within the Sky Screen. Then she turned toward Yu Zhi beside her, her tone gentle.

"Xiao Zhi, is this person one of your kin?"

Yu Zhi was currently stunned by the sheer size of the Nine-Tails!

Damn, this Nine-Tails is way too huge! It has to be over a hundred meters tall!

Douluo Continent has nothing on this!

Hearing Bibi Dong's voice, he deliberately put on a bewildered and astonished expression, repeating the information he had fabricated earlier.

"Teacher, I... I don't know either. I only remember hearing as a child about the Nine-Tails' rampage in Konoha and the Fourth Hokage's death. But I never knew there were such secrets behind it, nor had I ever seen such a powerful member of my clan."

Bibi Dong lovingly raised her hand and gently stroked the top of his head. "It is fine. You were still very young then. It is normal that you could not access the village's high-level secrets."

Her gaze returned to the Sky Screen as she solemnly instructed him, "Watch the scenes in the Sky Screen carefully from now on. Observe more and comprehend more. It will greatly benefit your understanding and development of your Sharingan Martial Soul."

Yu Zhi nodded obediently, thinking to himself, Becoming her disciple was definitely worth it!

All he could say was that Bibi Dong was absolutely amazing when she was not crazy!

Core Region of Star Dou Forest

Mist drifted along the shores of Lake of Life. The Ferocious Beasts stood silently, gazing up at the Nine-Tails wreaking havoc in the Sky Screen, their faces filled with shock.

Di Tian's golden eyes darkened as he stared intently at the hundred-meter-tall crimson fox, his tone carrying both suspicion and gravity.

"This Nine-Tails actually has a million years of cultivation? And the origin of its physique is entirely different from the Spirit Beasts of our Douluo Continent. So it is called a Tailed Beast? And there are nine of them! I wonder whether they were also created from our lord's bloodline back then?"

Xiong Jun scratched his massive head and sighed in a rough voice.

"No one can say for sure. It seems that Naruto Continent is truly strange and unfathomable. This Nine-Tails is far too powerful. The energy in its body is immense and vast, seemingly endless and inexhaustible. More outrageous still, such a supreme existence can actually be forcibly controlled and commanded by someone!"

"It is the strongest beast I have ever seen! Far stronger than that useless silkworm!"

Bi Ji watched the collapsing buildings and fleeing civilians in the Sky Screen. Pity rose in her heart, and she let out a soft sigh.

"Alas, such a prosperous and peaceful city was overturned by war in an instant. It seems that no matter which world or continent one is in, slaughter and conflict can never truly be escaped."

The Ferocious Beasts fell silent. They wanted to refute her, but out of consideration for Bi Ji's feelings, they said nothing.

The light and shadows in the Sky Screen shifted, and the scene continued.

[As the chaos suddenly erupted, Konoha City quickly stabilized itself. Ninja from across the village rapidly assembled and rushed to the front lines to repel the enemy.]

[Lines of clear annotations appeared in the corner of the screen, explaining the Martial Souls and abilities of Konoha's great clans one by one.]

[Nara Clan: Shadow Martial Soul, binding and restraint.]

[Yamanaka Clan: Spiritual Martial Soul, seeking opportunities to control.]

[Akimichi Clan: Physical Body Martial Soul, close-range protection.]

[Aburame Clan Martial Soul: Insects! Disruption!]

[An elderly man with a majestic bearing stepped forward. He was none other than the Third Hokage—Sarutobi Hiruzen.]

[The Sky Screen marked their levels. Most were in their seventies, while most of the leaders were in their eighties. Only Sarutobi Hiruzen had reached level 97!]

[He led a large number of Ninja to face the rampaging Nine-Tails head-on, unleashing a deluge of Ninjutsu.]

[Flames scorched the sky, thunder split the earth, and torrents surged forth. Fire, lightning, water, and all manner of abilities took turns attacking with incomparable ferocity.]

[Yet when they struck the Nine-Tails' enormous body, they failed even to damage its fur. They could not shake this prehistoric behemoth in the slightest.]

["Everyone, disperse at once! This old man will force it out of the village!"]

[The Third Hokage shouted sternly and instantly unleashed his own Martial Soul—Enma.]

[Enma transformed into a towering giant staff. Its body extended segment by segment, growing wildly for hundreds of meters as it forcibly braced against the Nine-Tails' enormous body. By his strength alone, he pushed the terrifying beast step by step away from the heart of Konoha City.]

The scene in the Sky Screen was utterly breathtaking, and gasps echoed throughout Douluo Continent.

"There are actually so many above level 70! There are even Title Douluo-level experts!"

"Konoha's foundation runs deep!"

"Gasp... So this is Ninjutsu? They can freely control flames, thunder, and flowing water!"

"And those Martial Souls are all so unfamiliar! Shadows and spiritual power can both become Martial Souls?"

"And that elderly Third Hokage is already advanced in years, yet he can still hold the front line and forcibly drive such a terrifying beast out of the city!"

Countless sharp-minded Soul Masters stared intently, already silently analyzing the cultivation system and remarkable qualities of the Ninja from Naruto Continent.

Within Spirit Hall's Worship Hall, Qian Daoliu gazed at the Sky Screen with deep eyes and muttered softly to himself.

"They can use extraordinary abilities without relying on Spirit Rings. It merely seems that they need to form those strange hand seals when using these special techniques... They truly have a system of their own."

Golden Crocodile Douluo nodded heavily, his expression extremely grave.

"That is right, Big Brother! The most frightening thing is that this Ninjutsu seems to be something anyone can cultivate and learn, unrestricted by innate Martial Souls or Spirit Ring age limits."

"This does not merely make up for the shortcomings of Soul Skills. Once they have fully mastered it, the techniques and combat methods they can wield may well rival us Douluo Soul Masters!"

"Besides, Konoha does not seem to have many Title Douluo-level experts! So far, there is only Sarutobi Hiruzen!"

Qian Daoliu watched the Konoha Ninja in the Sky Screen and pondered for a moment.

"Perhaps some unexpected change occurred. Konoha has clearly suffered a generational gap!"

Then he sighed again. "Ah... Is this the difference between different continents?!"

"That Sarutobi Hiruzen's Enma Martial Soul is quite formidable!"

"At level 97, and already so old, he still possesses such strength!"

"According to Yu Zhi, Konoha's strongest Hokage was not him, but the First Hokage! What kind of magnificence must he have possessed?"

"And that Fourth Hokage—the Sky Screen is reviewing him! Yet he has not appeared even now! It seems he was the one who appeared and resolved this giant beast!"

The more Qian Daoliu spoke, the brighter his eyes became. An invisible aura rose and fell around him, while emotions that had lain dormant for countless years surged violently within him.

He had not felt this way in a long time!

Extreme curiosity, barely suppressed excitement, and a deeply buried desire to battle Outer Continent experts with all his strength intertwined in his heart, filling this powerhouse who had long stood at the pinnacle of Douluo Continent with a long-lost thrill and agitation.
