Erased from the Shinobi World
After a round of attacks, the Iwagakure air force quickly returned, confirming Shikaku's guess.
The Explosive Clay that fell like the Grim Reaper's scythe rarely managed to find its way into the ranks of those who surrendered, thanks to the methods of the four great ninja villages.
After paying the price of dozens of lives lost on the battlefield, the surrendered Iwagakure soldiers have joined the flanks of the Allied Shinobi Forces.
Rōshi felt guilty towards the dead, but even more so, he felt joy for the survivors.
However, Rōshi buried all of this deep in his heart. At this moment, his expression became increasingly crazed and distorted.
Like a bloodthirsty demon!
Those who were going to flee have already fled, and those who were going to surrender have already been accepted.
Now, all that's left are those who don't want to live anymore.
A dark red Chakra Cloak appeared on Rōshi's body, which instantly turned into lava.
Partial Tailed Beast Transformation, Lava Release Chakra Mode!
War is not like drinking tea or washing feet, nor is it like hosting a dinner party; eventually, a battle will always have to be fought.
The remaining Iwagakure Ninja must die; it's good for everyone!
Rōshi, in his Partial Tailed Beast Transformation, raised his arm and gave a shout.
"Jade Shatter!"
The remaining Iwagakure Ninja beside and behind him, already aware of their fate, shouted along with Rōshi.
"Jade Shatter!"
"Jade Shatter!"
"..."
Shikaku looked at the Iwagakure Ninja, all of whom were determined to die, and listened to their synchronized shouts as he calmly issued his orders.
The Allied Shinobi Forces are destined to win; there's no need to fight to the death with a bunch of guys who're ready to die.
Given the certainty of victory, as the commander-in-chief of the Konoha forces, the key consideration is how to minimize losses.
After completing the deployment, they watched as the Iwagakure Ninja, shouting "Jade Shatter!" (meaning "shatter the heavens"), launched a suicidal charge towards the Allied Forces.
Shikaku shook his head slightly. "Whether it's a 'Kage' or a 'Daimyo,' your Land of Earth no longer has any 'Kage.'"
All units of the Allied Shinobi Forces adopted similar methods in an attempt to minimize their own casualties.
Fu, who had been playing a minor role in the Takigakure squad, spoke to the middle-aged ninja in front of her.
"Uncle, shall we go and defeat that big bad guy?"
Following Fu's finger, the middle-aged ninja saw Rōshi, who was clad in a lava-like coat.
The middle-aged ninja didn't explain, but instead smiled and agreed.
"Okay, but let's defeat the little rascals around him first!"
After speaking, the middle-aged ninja skillfully formed Hand Seals, aiming at the charging Iwagakure Ninja.
[Earth Release: Fierce Earth Palm Strike!]
The advanced Earth Release of Iwagakure) can destroy terrain over large areas, causing countless troubles to opposing ninja forces on the battlefield.
Now it was the Iwagakure Ninja had to face this trouble.
A seventeen or eighteen-year-old ninja from Iwagakure was caught off guard by the rapidly cracking earth, his body swayed, and he was then pierced through the body by an Earth Release: Earth Spear.
"Uncle, you're amazing!"
Fu's praise rang out behind him, and the middle-aged ninja turned around and laughed heartily at Fu.
"Hahaha, of course, this is our new justice!"
The one-sided battle was quickly coming to an end.
In the previous ten days or so, Iwagakure had indeed eliminated a considerable number of Allied Shinobi.
But back then, everyone was fighting their own battles, and Iwagakure chose the easy targets.
Now facing the Allied Shinobi Forces, centered around the other four major ninja villages, Iwagakure's counterattack, while achieving some success, has been negligible.
Rōshi watched his subordinates fall one by one beside him, his strength waning, he could no longer maintain his Chakra Cloak and reverted to his original form.
He looked at the tall, slender figure opposite him, who was holding a wooden pipe in his hand, and knew that there was no point in struggling any longer.
All of Rōshi's attacks were easily neutralized by the opponent, and Rōshi also learned the opponent's identity from Son Goku.
The Six-Tails Jinchuriki, the perfect Jinchūriki.
From the beginning until now, the opponent has been keeping a close eye on him, and throughout the entire battle, Rōshi's achievements are zero.
He was even less capable than many of his former subordinates who had already died.
That's all!
Rōshi planned to end his own life. He was more than a decade older than Han, and he had spent decades of his life in Iwagakure.
Iwagakure was his life. Although he later fell out with Ōnoki and chose to leave, it had nothing to do with Iwagakure.
From the moment Rōshi received the news and rushed back to Iwagakure, he had no intention of hiding his life.
Rōshi took a Kunai from his ninja tool pouch and aimed it at his heart.
"Sun, I'm so sorry!"
After apologizing to his old partner in his heart and receiving no response, Rōshi did not hesitate and stabbed him forcefully.
Since no one in the Allied Shinobi Forces stopped them, they were destined to be on different paths. Choosing suicide would be a good thing for the Allied Shinobi Forces.
"Hiss~"
But after just piercing the skin, Rōshi could no longer pierce it.
Because a corpse with half its body missing was standing at Rōshi's feet, it suddenly reached out a hand and stopped Rōshi's actions.
"Lord Tsuchikage, you can't die!"
"It's you!!!"
Rōshi recognized him at a glance; he was one of the six Chunin from Hankou who had killed each other's families.
"To be precise, it's us."
"Hello, Tsuchikage, how are you?"
"..."
Apart from the first person, five more corpses rose up and greeted Rōshi in a flurry of voices.
Rōshi didn't know what was going on, but he understood that the other party's purpose was definitely not simple.
"Kill me now!"
Rōshi shouted towards the direction of the Allied forces.
"That won't do, Lord Tsuchikage!"
The corpse that was holding Rōshi's arm changed at this moment, turning into a pool of white, unidentified substance that enveloped Rōshi's entire body.
Exhausted, Rōshi was powerless to resist, and the other five also turned into white matter, enveloping Rōshi layer by layer.
"Puff!"
Utakata's attack landed on the open ground, while Rōshi and the six White Zetsu had already escaped underground.
The captains-in-chief of several ninja villages turned their attention to Shikaku's location.
Although Shikaku lacked experience, having dealt with Danzo before, he knew he was being blamed!
Regardless of how the Allied Forces view it internally, with Rōshi's disappearance, one thing has been confirmed.
Iwagakure) was completely wiped out of the Shinobi World.
