A Dark Ambush

After unleashing the Kirin, Uchiha Ruofeng let out a sigh of relief. In order to control the Kirin so as not to accidentally harm the Konoha Ninja, he could only control the Kirin to pounce into the distance.

The Sunagakure Ninja underground were truly reduced to ashes in the Kirin, which is not far from the purpose of clearing out the area.

The dark clouds, which should have dissipated after the lightning power was channeled, are now even darker, seemingly brewing even more powerful lightning.

Ruofeng looked at the dark clouds in the sky with a look of surprise and doubt.

"I just finished channeling the lightning power, so why is there still lightning power in the dark clouds?"

Before the Ruofeng could guide them again, the dark clouds in the sky seemed to be guided, drifting away into the distance at a very fast speed, making it seem as if the dark clouds were aware of their own existence.

The desert in the canyon where Tsunade fought a major battle underwent a sudden change, and a giant Katsuyu crawled out from where Tsunade had buried something.

The Katsuyu was enormous, probably over a hundred meters tall, Tsunade emerged from the top of its Katsuyu.

As one of the legendary Sannin, Tsunade is certainly not so easily defeated.

After emerging from the desert, Tsunade surveyed her surroundings but found no trace of Rasa. Rasa's elite guard had already silently disappeared into the sands beneath Tsunade.

Rasa fought fiercely for a long time, but even with his Chakra under such intense fighting and fled via a side path.

After the Gold Dust stopped, Tsunade's elite guards rushed to the spot where Tsunade had sunk to offer assistance, but they were helpless. They dug with their hands and dug, but they could not dig out Tsunade who was buried deep inside.

In the end, Tsunade broke the Ninjutsu with her own abilities and escaped.

Tsunade was panting heavily. The massive depletion of her Chakra, along with the effects of releasing the Yin Seal, had Tsunade somewhat weak.

Before Tsunade could even rest, she noticed a well-proportioned red-haired female ninja carrying a muscular ninja as she hurried toward her.

The ninja being carried had flowing, long, curly black hair that Tsunade found somewhat familiar.

Further behind the female ninja, there appeared to be another battle, with Kakkō occasionally flashing.

"Katsuyu, could you please go ahead and heal the Konoha Ninja?"

"Yes, Lady Tsunade!"

The Katsuyu was very obedient, splitting into countless smaller Katsuyu that scattered in all directions to heal the fallen or wounded Konoha Ninja.

After the Katsuyu split, Tsunade fell from the sky and stood in the yellow sand. The yellow sand lost its control and Chakra.

Aside from the sand formed by Rasa grinding the earth with Gold Dust, which remained, the other sand manipulated by Chakra gradually seeped into the earth and disappeared.

The land gradually returned to its original state, except for small sand vortexes in many places.

Tsunade leaped several times, rushing towards the Uzumaki, with her bodyguard ninjas following closely behind.

"Lady Tsunade! Lord Naraku here to save you, but he was hit by some kind of Ninjutsu and has fallen unconscious! And there's a powerful assassin following him!"

No one knew why Naraku had fainted, and given their previous suspicions that Naraku seemed to have a close relationship with Tsunade, they hurriedly sought help.

After Tsunade Uzumaki Taki, Taki Naraku flat on the ground.

Tsunade was somewhat anxious, but she didn't forget that they were on the battlefield, and gave orders to the guards behind her:

"You all go and provide support!"

"Hi!" X17

Four small teams rushed towards the site of the battle at Inabi.

After the guards left, Tsunade looked at the unconscious Naraku and then revealed a look of horror. She hurriedly gathered Chakra in her hands to examine Naraku's entire body.

Uzumaki Taki worked with Tsunade to perform healing, a glance revealed Tsunade's strange expression.

After examining Tsunade for a while, Naraku discovered that some kind of change was indeed happening to him, with his Chakra surging abnormally.

"How long has this situation lasted!?"

Although Tsunade was nervous, she was, after all, a renowned healer, and asked seriously.

"Naraku only fainted after he arrived here!"

After a moment's thought, Uzumaki Taki replied earnestly.

Meanwhile, as the two were examining Naraku's body after healing him, a dark cloud crackling with lightning drifted overhead, darkening the surroundings.

The two were so focused on Naraku that they didn't notice the unusual situation in the sky.

Uchiha Inabi's eyes widened, the Three-Tomoe Sharingan in them transforming into three sharp swords, veins throbbing on his forehead, his anger reaching its peak.

Uchiha Inabi had just awakened her Mangekyō Sharingan, and the surge in her ocular power and Chakra did not cause her any discomfort; on the contrary, it was like a timely Inabi.

Uchiha Inabi desperately needed this power to kill the monster before her.

Uchiha Inabi had just awakened her Mangekyō Sharingan when she was about to engage in a fierce battle. The surge in her eye power and the tense moment made Inabi quickly realize the Dōjutsu residing in her eyes.

"Amaterasu!"

Blood trickled from Inabi's right eye. The Black and White Monster in front of him showed a look of fear. Before he could react, he was surrounded by black flames and let out a shrill scream.

Wow!

Black Zetsu controlled White Zetsu's body and had been watching Uchiha Nara for a long time. Uchiha Nara powerful, acted eccentrically, and had a deep bond with Uchiha Obito.

Black Zetsu realized that Naraku was someone who could influence Uchiha Obito. This time, while infiltrating around Konoha, he encountered the sudden Battle of Kikyo Pass.

Black Zetsu remained hidden underground, his Mayfly Technique blending seamlessly with the earth. Even those skilled in Sensory Ninjutsu failed to detect Black Zetsu's pursuit.

Black Zetsu observed for a long time, but seeing no opportunity, he originally wanted to leave. However, he noticed that Uchiha Nara's eye power and Chakra were surging, as if a strange change was taking place.

This made Black Zetsu somewhat uneasy. He Black Zetsu to eliminate this uncontrollable factor, but he wasn't confident. Naraku's sudden unconsciousness gave Black Zetsu a sense of opportunity.

Black Zetsu mustered his courage to attempt the assassination, only to find that Naraku's Guard Corps were quite strong, which further stimulated the Mangekyō Sharingan, much to Black Zetsu's dismay.

Most importantly, with their primary target, Uchiha Nara, and a new elite guard unit on the other side, Black Zetsu felt he had no chance.

If they could take control of these newly awakened Mangekyō Sharingan, it would be a success. However, after a long struggle, they couldn't defeat their enemy.

As Black Zetsu sensed the enemy's Chakra and ocular power gradually stabilizing, he began to perceive the powerful threat emanating from their eyes.

When their vision disappeared after a clash of Ninjutsu, Black Zetsu created a Wood Clone on the ground while he hid behind a large tree created by Wood Release Ninjutsu, preparing to burrow underground and escape.

Inabi breathed a slight sigh of relief as she looked at the Black and White Monster reduced to ashes. Little did she know that what had been burned was merely Wood Clone, Ninjutsu that even the Mangekyō Sharingan couldn't see through.

Black Zetsu burrowed underground, and just as his head was about to leave the ground, he was startled by a sinister voice behind him.

"Is it too late to leave now?"

Black Zetsu didn't have time to turn around and look behind him. A slash flashed, and half of Black and White Zetsu's head flew off.

Uchiha Zensui, wielding a long sword imbued with Chakra blades, sliced off half of Black Zetsu's head!

Uchiha Zensui's eyes turned bloodshot. After severing half of the head of the Black and White Zetsu, the red light in one of Zensui's Sharingan gradually dissipated, turning white.
