"Did something happen over in Amegakure?"
Minato Namikaze, who had just finished fighting in Konoha, saw a bolt of lightning spanning heaven and earth and turned to the Anbu beside him in astonishment.
"Well... I don't know, sir."
The Anbu beside him dropped to one knee and answered.
They had all believed Ning Feng was overwhelming the opposition in Amegakure. Given the relationship between Minato Namikaze and Ning Feng, they had not stationed any informants there.
They could not receive timely intelligence about Amegakure, either.
"It looks like something happened."
Minato Namikaze carefully extended his senses in the direction of the lightning and discovered two astonishing sources of chakra!
He had only ever seen chakra of this magnitude in Ning Feng!
Then one of those two sources of chakra belonged to Ning Feng.
Who did the other belong to?
Such terrifying chakra that even he, who was not skilled at sensing, could detect it from so far away...
Had Minato already been forced into a difficult battle?
"No, I have to go take a look!"
With that thought, Minato Namikaze ordered the Anbu beside him to assemble an elite force and prepare to head to the Amegakure battlefield!
"Hah... hah..."
The Amegakure battlefield...
The battlefield was devastated after enduring the large-scale Lightning Release Ninjutsu, Kirin.
The ground had cracked apart inch by inch, and the mountain peaks had been shattered.
Even the forest, once thick with trees thanks to the damp environment, was now covered in scorch marks.
The apocalyptic scene stretched for several miles.
At the center of the lightning, where Madara Uchiha's Susanoo had stood when Ning Feng aimed Kirin at it...
A deep crater now spread outward from that point.
The crater spanned hundreds of yards!
Even the overturned earth along its edges was faintly visible.
