Finally escaped...
Looking at the bright sunlight rising quietly in the east, there was no longer a bloody monster charging behind them, and the long and torturous winter night had come to an end. All the Hidden Cloud Village ninjas who had escaped were relieved to have survived the disaster.
Kōmon, Tazbi, Yugito and other high-level executives Jonin were in dire straits. They managed to escape, but some were buried in the blood-stained snowfield, and some became prisoners of Land of Night.
Looking back, there were already less than a thousand Hidden Cloud Village ninjas who ran out.
You know, in order to plan this counterattack, they dispatched a total of three thousand ninjas.
Nowadays, less than a thousand people have escaped alive. Even if there are many people who escaped alone because they did not follow the large army, they are probably only a few hundred people at most.
In other words, in this counterattack, they lost nearly half of their elite troops in just a few hours.
This number of injuries shocked the Hidden Cloud Village and Jonin senior management here, and they were so heartbroken that they almost stopped breathing.
This is their wealth that they have accumulated for many years. Many of them are young people with promising futures, but they sleep forever on the endless snowfield of that nightmare, still on the land of their own country.
"There is no time to lament. At least we are still alive, as long as..."
Kōmon was about to boost the shattered morale when a shadow suddenly enveloped him, interrupting what he was going to say next.
Kōmon turned his neck stiffly, and followed the many Hidden Cloud Village ninjas who looked up at the sky.
A giant beast no smaller than Tsuchigumo, flapping its colorful wings, dragging the body of a huge blue beetle, suspended under the rising twilight, giving it a sense of divine beauty.
Seven-Tails Chōmei.
It just landed quietly from a high altitude, hovering nearly a hundred meters above the ground, looking down at Kōmon and other defeated soldiers.
"Are you kidding me? Why is Seven-Tails here?"
"Damn it, did I hit the enemy's Genjutsu?"
"Liar, this is definitely a lie! How could Jinchūriki become such a complete form of Tailed Beasts!?"
Disbelieving sounds trembled and leaked from the Hidden Cloud Village ninjas' lips that had lost their warmth, greatly shaking their inner confidence.
As we all know, although the research and development progress of Five Great Shinobi Nations is different for the utilization of Tailed Beasts and Jinchūriki, they are basically in the early exploratory stage.
The fastest progress is just to enter the Partial Tailed Beast Transformation state, and can barely use Tailed-Beast Bomb.
However, the behemoth in front of us, Half-Tailed-Beast Transformation, which has broken away from the basics, is the real Full Tailed-Beast Form.
Tazbi and Yugito, who are Jinchūriki, are even more in a trance, feeling like they are dreaming.
In order to complete Half-Tailed-Beast Transformation, they went through unimaginable hard work and torture before they reached their current state.
For this reason, they even abandoned the original Nintaijutsu system.
However, someone now tells them that there is already someone who can perfectly control Tailed Beasts and fully demonstrate the power of Tailed Beasts.
Even Uzumaki Clan, who is good at Sealing Jutsu, shouldn't be making such rapid progress in controlling the power of Tailed Beasts?
However, looking at Seven-Tails's violent and extremely peaceful aura, it is the true posture of Tailed Beasts's full power!
They all told them that this was exactly the 'Perfect Jinchūriki' form they had dreamed of!
Faced with the disbelief and horror of the Hidden Cloud Village ninja below, Seven-Tails remained silent and just opened its mouth, while the black ball condensed in front of it.
The black ball's overweight Chakra mass caused even the surrounding air to become slightly distorted.
"Stop her! We can't let her knock that thing out!"
Tazbi and Yugito entered the Partial Tailed Beast Transformation state again. The moment Seven-Tails fell to Tailed-Beast Bomb, they also sprayed out the Tailed-Beast Bomb they had condensed.
Not willing to sit still and wait for death, the Hidden Cloud Village ninjas also performed their own unique skills. Lightning Release, Water Release, Earth Release, including Storm Release Ninjutsu, all poured towards the sky.
Rumble--
The sky suddenly brightened, and a huge ball of light appeared in mid-air.
The sky was shaking and roaring, and the terrifying hurricane formed a shock wave visible to the naked eye, ravaging the entire world.
Although they successfully prevented Tailed-Beast Bomb from landing, the energy impact that exploded midway still caused unimaginable trauma to the Hidden Cloud Village ninja below.
Many exhausted ninjas fell directly to the ground and twitched, their last bits of physical strength and Chakra being squeezed out by the previous counterattack.
After Seven-Tails released this Tailed-Beast Bomb, he did not continue the attack. He just glanced at the Hidden Cloud Village ninjas on the ground and flew quickly towards the west, leaving behind the handsome and proud figure of the Hidden Cloud Village ninja.
"Go, go?"
Hidden Cloud Village The ninjas couldn't believe that Perfect Jinchūriki, who could transform into the complete form Tailed Beasts, could let them go so easily?
To be honest, they all felt unprecedented despair just now.
"Her condition is not right. After releasing Tailed-Beast Bomb just now, she seemed to be panting and not in peak condition."
Kōmon glanced at Seven-Tails's flying back and made a judgment.
The Hidden Cloud Village ninjas next to Kōmon looked at each other and were thinking about the reason.
Suddenly, Kōmon seemed to have thought of something, and his face became extremely ugly.
"Master Kōmon, you--"
"Damn it, go back quickly!"
Kōmon didn't have time to explain, so he took the lead and ran forward, with cold sweat dripping from his face.
Thinking that Seven-Tails had just landed from the east, he thought of an extremely serious possibility.
Some Hidden Cloud Village ninjas also reacted. After Kōmon's actions, they naturally thought of some terrible things.

Yayoi is arranging people to clean up the battlefield, and the intensity of the pursuit is enough.
He had never thought about annihilating all Hidden Cloud Village, leaving aside the middle and low-level ninjas. If the top ninjas wanted to escape, it would be difficult to catch up, especially on a chaotic battlefield.
What he wants is to annihilate Hidden Cloud Village's effective forces as much as possible, consume part of the foundation Hidden Cloud Village has accumulated for many years, and provide a powerful 'bargaining chip' for Land of Night to enter the stage of a great power in the future.
Yayoi knew very well that his purpose in participating in the war this time was not to swallow up Hidden Cloud Village and Land of Lightning, but to intimidate and obtain the entire land, population, and resources of Land of Fields.
The former is the key prestige in establishing the Land of Night alliance system, and the latter is a real and huge benefit.
As for Land of Lightning, even if an occupied area is established, it is beyond our reach to manage it. It is too far from Land of Night's homeland and has to take the troublesome sea route.
As for the elimination of Kumogakure...Yayoi has never thought about this matter. Even if it is really possible, he would not be able to do it.
First, the losses were too great. Hidden Cloud Village could at least pull out a sizable main force, as well as those old people from the Warring States Period who were living in seclusion in Kumogakure and were not completely dead. It is very likely that they would come out again for the sake of the continuation of the family.
Yayoi Don't dare to underestimate these old guys in their 60s and 70s.
For example, Third Hokage and Chiyo are old. They are just old, not that they cannot fight.
Secondly, eliminate Hidden Cloud Village and Land of Lightning, which is such a big place, Land of Night cannot monopolize it.
That would cause a problem.
Land of Night fought hard to kill Hidden Cloud Village with serious injuries on his own, but he had to share it equally with other countries. This is a loss to his grandma's family.
Peace talks are the tone set by Yayoi next.
From the relentless pursuit at the beginning, to the subsequent continuous killing of Hidden Cloud Village's morale, to the collapse of the fighting will of Hidden Cloud Village's main force in one fell swoop, they all served one purpose - to make Hidden Cloud Village fearful enough to not want to continue fighting.
Even if this does not happen, Yayoi will find ways to promote this result.
If there is no peace negotiation, then call Hidden Cloud Village to want peace negotiation.
Not to mention, he now has an extremely important bargaining chip that can be used to negotiate with Hidden Cloud Village.
Just when Yayoi was thinking about these questions--
"General."
Assault Force ninja Body Flicker Technique, wearing a windbreaker jacket and a blue patterned mask, flashed in front of Yayoi.
From the pattern and color of the mask he wears, we know that Special Assault Department is a Jonin-level team leader.
"What's the matter?"
Yayoi asked a little.
The people from Assault Division came here at this time. I think they came to Izayoi because they had important news to convey.
The Assault Division team leader then spoke:
"General, Konoha High Command consultant Sasuke Sarutobi died in the line of duty."
"... who?"
Yayoi didn't react for a while.
"Konoha High Command consultant Sasuke Sarutobi died in the line of duty."
Jonin team leader answered clearly again.
Yayoi finally reacted, but his head still didn't turn around.
After a long period of reflection, Yayoi continued to ask:
"What's going on?"
"It's brothers Kinkaku Ginkaku. During the battle, they unsealed Six Paths Ninja Tools, which was mentioned in the intelligence but has been hidden and unused."
This news was a bit unexpected for Yayoi.
But if you think about it carefully, it is quite normal. The ninja tool related to Sage of Six Paths must have some incredible power.
Many people have speculated about Six Paths Ninja Tools, but there are different opinions on what kind of abilities those ninja tools have, and there is no accurate conclusion.
If there is a bad information, it can easily lead to death at first sight.
Not to mention, the ones who master these ninja tools are Kinkaku Ginkaku, the monster brothers.
