The situation on the battlefield underwent a staggering reversal.
Just moments ago, the three-way alliance had been fighting the allied forces of Konoha and Sunagakure. Who could have guessed that, in no time at all, two people would appear, resurrect the dead Kage, and summon a vast host of the deceased?
No one had seen this turn of events coming.
Moreover, the man wearing the white mask had declared with absolute conviction that the era of shinobi villages was over.
What did he intend to do? Destroy every shinobi village?
"Unforgivable!"
The hot-tempered Raikage A was the first to roar.
Seeing his father resurrected through a sinister jutsu, seeing the ninja who had once died for their village brought back and controlled, the Fourth Raikage A seethed with rage.
"You bastard! How dare you desecrate the souls of the dead! I'll kill you!"
Raikage A lashed out in fury, charging straight at Obito.
"Lariat!"
Obito, however, made no unnecessary movements. One of the Impure World Kage before him moved first.
"Hell Stab: One-Finger Nukite!"
Whoosh!
The Impure World Raikage charged forward at a speed that rivaled the Fourth Raikage's.
Bam!
Crack!
Rumble!
Two bolts of lightning collided. Electricity instantly sprayed in every direction, accompanied by rolling thunder.
"Father!"
Looking at that familiar face before him, the Fourth Raikage A was overcome with grief and fury.
The Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu Kabuto used was a version perfected by Orochimaru. Those resurrected through it retained their consciousness and memories, yet obeyed the caster's commands absolutely.
This meant the caster only needed to issue an order. The resurrected individuals would carry it out in their own way, without needing to be directly controlled.
"Don't hold back! I can't control myself, but for the village, for the shinobi world, fight with everything you have!"
