Soon, Raikage understood that the Kid opposite was interfering with him.
Regardless of whether there is someone lurking nearby, Naruto Uzumaki is the enemy of Kumogakure.
Even if it will temporarily change due to the presence of foreign enemies, Konoha has swallowed nearly two-thirds of Shinobi World, how could it be possible to let Kumogakure go?
In this way, Raikage no longer thinks about it.
The opponent is already very strong, and the Girl next to him looks like Uchiha.
Although I don't know what that technique is, it looks very dangerous at first glance.
If the other party is willing to delay, then just delay first. When Killer B and Yugito come back, the outcome is still uncertain.
'I wasn't more careful than that guy, and he got hit so easily. I thought it was Octopus who was burned, but I didn't expect it was really his hand?'
Thinking like this, Raikage looked at the scorched black marks on the ground.
The charred black thing looked nothing like the tentacles of Octopus.
The gap has been forged. No matter what, Kumogakure will have a fight with Naruto Uzumaki today. It is better to let the other Ninja in the village be careful and fight the Hokage in front of him.
Thinking of this, Raikage began to maintain precautions and refine Chakra.
During this period, someone also brought him food.
Raikage would also ask someone to send some food to Naruto, but Naruto declined.
Wait...
It's almost time.
Naruto condensed a handle of Wooden Sword in his hand.
With his current strength and Konoha's background, defeating any Shinobi Village head-on is just a matter of time and cost.
The real trouble is that "march" takes time. No matter how fast Ninja's footsteps are, the logistics of a cross-border expedition are a huge drain.
After the "rule" takes time to be defeated, how to make the originally hostile Ninja and civilians accept the new order?
Moreover, "construction" takes time. The damage caused by the war needs to be repaired, new systems need to be established, and the gap between people's hearts needs a long time to bridge.
Of course, there is also the most realistic... funding.
War is the most expensive game.
Military expenditures, reconstruction costs... each amount is an astronomical figure.
Even Konoha, which has now annexed Iwagakure and Sunagakure and is greatly rich in resources, must be careful with its budget.
Therefore, like today, directly "beheading" the enemy's supreme leader and forcing the opponent to surrender or collapse at the minimum cost and as quickly as possible is the most "efficient" and "economical" way.
Thoughts flashed like lightning, Naruto turned his gaze back to Ai opposite.
However, it was not either of them who took the lead in breaking this final confrontation.
"Fire Rat Ball!"
A clear and clear scream with a decisive fighting spirit came from a high ground inside Kumogakure, near the gate.
Immediately afterwards, an energy bomb shaped like a mouse and completely composed of Blue Eyes Flames shot towards the location of Naruto at an astonishing speed!
The person who performed this trick was Yugito who had handed Killer B to Medical Team and returned.
There is also a Flames tail of Blue Eyes on her back.
This "Fire Rat Ball" is like the signal of the starting gun!
It announced Kumogakure's official counterattack against the invaders after evacuating civilians.
It also announced that this battle concerning the survival of Kumogakure has officially begun!
Almost at the same time as "Fire Rat Ball" was ejected.
"Drink!"
Fourth Raikage A let out a thundering roar, and the already violent Lightning Release Chakra around him exploded like a boiling fire at this moment!
Blue Eyes's electric light moved crazily, enveloping his entire body in a dazzling thunder light.
His short, thick hair stood upright under the action of static electricity, like an angry lion's mane.
Strongest Lightning Release Armor, Raikage's iconic Nintaijutsu activates Lightning Release Chakra to the extreme, Bestowal's unparalleled defense, speed and attack power.
"Lightning Release·Lariat!"
Ai didn't have any tests, and as soon as he took action, it was one of his most powerful and fastest Taijutsu.
His thoughts are clear:
We must not let Naruto Uzumaki, this Perfect Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, have the chance to enter the complete Tailed Beast Transformation state.
Once the opponent turns into that huge Nine-Tailed Demon Fox and starts fighting at the gate of Kumogakure, the damage caused to the village will be devastating.
Moreover, the scale and uncertainty of the battle will also increase greatly.
Therefore, it is necessary to fight quickly. When the opponent is still in the "human form" state, use Strongest's blow to severely damage or even kill him.
Ai's Body Flicker Technique, with the support of Strongest Lightning Release Armor, has an explosive speed within a short distance that is almost comparable to Flying Thunder God Technique.
I saw a lightning flash of Blue Eyes, and Ai's figure had disappeared from the place.
The next moment, he had appeared directly in front of Naruto. The thick arm wrapped with destructive lightning was like a huge lightning guillotine, slashing hard at Naruto's neck.
There is no warning, no temptation, it explodes with all its strength and is unexpected.
This is Ai's tactic!
However, facing this sudden and lightning-fast fatal blow, Naruto did not even lift the wooden sword in his hand.
He just opened his squinted eyes and saw a pair of Byakugan.
Like the purest jade, or like the first snow in late winter, there are no pupils, no boundaries between the whites of the eyes, only an indifferent and deep white.
In this white, there are faint meridian-like lines extending from the corners of the eyes to Temples.
Byakugan!
Ai's eyes widened at this moment, and a turmoil arose in his heart.
How come this guy has Byakugan?!
Is this Kid so ruthless, attacking people in his own village, or even his girlfriend's family?
"Do you dare to be distracted when you fight me?"
The words have not yet fallen.
Naruto's hands have been raised like phantoms.
However, the palms of his hands were now covered with Wind Release Chakra.
Ai's "Lariat", with the violent Lightning Release Chakra on it, the moment it came into contact with the light cyan Wind Release on Naruto's hands, was easily scattered as if it had encountered a nemesis.
The lightning dissipated, revealing Ai's muscular bronze arm.
A trace of unbelievable horror flashed across Ai's eyes. He had never seen anyone be able to resolve his Lariat so lightly.
Of course he knows the principle of Feng Clay's attribute restraint, but to achieve such precise and efficient restraint, what kind of terrifying Chakra control and understanding of attribute changes is required?
Before Ai could recover from the shock.
"Bang!"
A dull loud noise.
Naruto's right leg kicked Ai firmly in the abdomen.
Ai felt an unimaginable force coming from him, as if he was hit head-on by a high-speed moving mountain peak.
"Ugh!"
Ai let out a muffled groan, and his huge body flew backwards like a cannonball at a faster speed than when he rushed over.
It hit the ground hard in the distance, plowing out a deep ravine and stirring up dust all over the sky.
And the "Fire Rat Ball" fired by Yugito was stopped by Uchiha Hikari holding Yasohinokami at the moment it was about to hit Naruto.
