Konoha.
Bang! Bang!
A large number of ninja from other villages broke through Konoha's outer defenses and launched an attack on Konoha.
Three enormous serpents also appeared.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Damn it, shuriken are completely useless against something that big."
The Konoha ninja looked grim. Dealing with massive summoned beasts like these was truly troublesome.
Just then, several chains descended from the sky.
They bound one of the giant serpents, leaving it unable to move.
"This is... the Barrier Team's Illusory Sealing Chains. They can only seal one living creature. We'll hold the others back."
With one giant serpent sealed by the chains, the Konoha ninja were invigorated and launched attacks against the remaining two.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Another squad arrived and saw the enormous snakes.
"What huge snakes. This is troublesome. Shinobu, move."
Morino Ibiki spoke to Mibu Shinobu.
Hearing that, Mibu Shinobu nodded and formed hand seals. "Eye-Painting Hand, Pangolin."

A massive pangolin rose from the ground, grabbed one of the snakes, and began wrestling with it.
"Captain, I can only control one. Keep an eye on me!"
After casting the ninjutsu, Mibu Shinobu spoke.
He had no choice. He had only learned it halfway, and without the reverse application of the Mind Reading Technique, he could only control it himself.

Sovereign's Palace, Land of Snow.
Tobitake Tonbo moved through the place as though it were empty. The Snow Ninja guards might as well have been blind to his presence.
"This palace is huge."
