No matter which formation they were in, they had to face countless White Zetsu swarming toward them.
These White Zetsu had no sense of self. They fought without regard for their lives, constantly burrowing up from underground.
On such a chaotic battlefield, most people relied primarily on close-quarters combat.
Very few could casually cast Ninjutsu.
For example, when Sasuke Uchiha had been a genin, he could probably cast three to five Great Fireball Techniques.
After that, he would basically be done for.
And that was because he belonged to the Uchiha Clan and had a large Chakra Quantity.
An ordinary genin who could cast two or three C-Rank Ninjutsu was already considered quite good.
Refining Chakra also required stamina. If Chakra was exhausted...
People would die.
In the Original Timeline, Kakashi had died once because his Chakra was depleted.
So it was impossible to use up more than half of one's Chakra right from the start.
Moreover, White Zetsu could absorb Chakra. If several White Zetsu latched onto someone, they could easily fall into a disadvantageous position. Without rescue, it was extremely dangerous.
On the battlefield, being strong was not about killing the most people. The ones who survived were the truly strong ones.
Each combat company fought independently.
After Ōnoki, the Tsuchikage, gave several Kage the Ultra-Light-Weight Rock Technique one by one, the Kage also moved about to provide aid.
Because they knew who their opponent was, and with Kabuto Natsuki backing them up, they fought alongside the others.
However, they were all fairly restrained in their Chakra use. Most of the time, they served to bolster morale.
After all, Obito was hiding underground, and no one knew what mischief he was preparing.
Among all the units, the Uchiha Clan was naturally the most outstanding.
