Meanwhile, in the capital of the Land of Whirlpools, the situation was already extremely tense. When Mito Uzumaki arrived with a thousand Hokage's Secret Guard at breakneck speed, she was met with the sight of Kaguya Tsukino Na leading an army of 70,000 men, attacking the capital like ravenous wolves. Kaguya Tsukino Na, a powerful member of the Kaguya Clan and possessing a terrifying Kekkei Genkai, stood proudly at the front of the battle lines, coldly commanding her army as they launched wave after wave of fierce attacks on the capital.
"Your Highness, you've finally arrived." When the ninjas of the Land of Whirlpools saw Mito Uzumaki, their previously dim eyes instantly lit up with the joy of seeing a glimmer of light in a desperate situation.
Looking at the chaotic and brutal battle before her, Mito Uzumaki felt a surge of anger well up inside her. She took a deep breath, slowly closed her eyes, and tried to calm the turmoil within her. The next moment, a terrifyingly powerful surge of Chakra erupted from her body like a volcanic eruption.
"Roar!" A deafening roar that made one's eardrums ache suddenly rang out as Mito Uzumaki activated her Nine-Tails Mode. Behind her, a gigantic phantom of Nine-Tails appeared with overwhelming power, its nine tails swinging wildly and radiating a terrifying aura that froze the surrounding air.
"Kill!" With a command that boomed like thunder, Mito Uzumaki led a thousand Hokage's Secret Guard) like an unstoppable black Mito Uzumaki, charging relentlessly towards the Land of Water's army. In Nine-Tails Mode, Hokage's Secret Guard followed closely behind, their movements perfectly coordinated, like gleaming blades, precisely and ruthlessly piercing the Land of Land of Water's ranks.
At the same time, the Uzumaki Clan of Sealing Jutsu, launched their attack. Their hands Hand Seals and chanting incantations. Mysterious runes flew from their hands, weaving together in the air to form massive sealing arrays. These arrays, like enormous cages, suddenly enveloped the Land of Water's army. The Land of Water ninjas trapped within the sealing arrays felt their Chakra drain uncontrollably like a burst dam, their bodies becoming incredibly heavy. They could no longer even perform the simplest Ninjutsu, and could only struggle desperately within the sealing arrays.
Five hundred Senju clan members, masters of superhuman Super Strength Technique and water/earth-attribute Ninjutsu, joined the battle. Some slammed their hands into the ground, causing the earth to tremble violently. Sharp rocks erupted from the ground like arrows, shooting towards the Land of Water's army. Senju Clan leaped high, gathering their superhuman strength in their fists and slamming them down on the enemy. Each blow exploded like a cannonball, scattering the surrounding foes. Still Senju Clan used Earth Release Ninjutsu to build earthen walls, trapping the Land of Water's ninja and creating opportunities for their own attack; others used Water Release Ninjutsu, coordinating with Mito Uzumaki's Nine-Tails power to create monstrous waves that sent the enemy reeling. Under their combined attack with Mito Uzumaki, the Land of Water's army suffered countless casualties and was thrown into chaos.
Kaguya Tsukino Na's face was ashen; he never imagined that Mito Uzumaki possessed such devastating power. "Everyone, don't panic! Hold your ground!" he shouted, his voice echoing across the battlefield. To stabilize morale, he personally engaged Mito Uzumaki in a fierce battle. Kaguya Tsukino Na unleashed a powerful Bone Release Technique, sharp, spear-like bones erupting from the ground, carrying a chilling killing intent, swiftly stabbing towards Mito Uzumaki.
Mito Uzumaki snorted coldly. In Nine-Tails Mode, she moved with lightning speed, easily dodging the Bone Release Technique attack in a flash. Like a black meteor, she rushed towards Kaguya Tsukino Na, unleashing a punch. The force of the punch was so powerful that Kaguya Tsukino Na's expression changed drastically, forcing her to defend with all her might.
The situation on the battlefield changed rapidly. The Konoha ninjas coordinated seamlessly, like a tightly knit fighting machine. Some ninjas stood in the rear, their hands rapidly Hand Seals to unleash powerful Ninjutsu for ranged attacks, fireballs and water dragons whistling towards the enemy; others relied on their agility for close combat, their Kunai gleaming as they moved freely among the enemies. Their tactics were flexible and varied, making it difficult for the Land of Water ninjas to defend against, causing them endless trouble. The Land of Water ninjas, however, were not to be outdone, using Water Release and Ice Release Ninjutsu to build strong defensive lines and tenaciously resist.
However, as the battle continued, the Land of Water ninja suffered increasingly heavy casualties under the fierce attack of the army. They were terrified by Mito Uzumaki's Nine-Tails Mode, their hearts filled with endless fear. But their commanders kept moving around the battlefield, shouting themselves hoarse to boost morale, urging them not to give up and to continue fighting. However, the defeat was overwhelming. As some fled, countless Land of Water ninjas followed suit. Kaguya Tsukino Na had no choice but to order a full retreat, but Mito Uzumaki and the Senju Clan pursued them relentlessly.
The army of the Land of Water had been utterly defeated and was mired in despair. The soldiers staggered, weapons fell to the ground, and their eyes were filled with terror and helplessness, cowering like lambs to the slaughter.
Just then, a frenzied roar shattered the brief stalemate on the battlefield. Over a thousand Kaguya Clan ninjas, as if possessed by demons, radiated an aura of madness and desperation, launching a counter-charge. Their eyes, bloodshot and red like burning spheres of blood, were filled with a death-defying resolve. To cover the retreating Land of Water army, they recklessly bypassed Mito Uzumaki and charged madly towards the Senju Clan army. Mito Uzumaki casually killed a few before pursuing the Land of Water of Land of Water army, determined to kill as many ninja as possible.
These Kaguya Clan, renowned for their powerful Kekkei Genkai, now unleashed their full potential. Some moved their hands with incredible speed, instantly unleashing sharp bone spikes from their palms. These spikes, like swords, whistled through the air, aiming straight for the Senju Clan ' vital points. Others stomped their feet on the ground with lightning speed, Setsuna causing the earth to crack and countless massive rocks to burst forth, raining down on the Senju Clan's ranks. Their techniques were haphazard and disregarded their own safety, driven solely by the desire to take down as many enemies as possible in this final struggle.
On the Senju Clan's side, their previously orderly defensive formation was caught off guard by the Kaguya Clan's frenzied counterattack. However, the Senju Clan's inherent passion and resilience were fully unleashed at this moment. They glared angrily, letting out deafening roars, and fearlessly met the Kaguya Clan's attack.
A young Senju ninja wielded his longsword with impenetrable speed, the flashing blades severing the bone spikes aimed at him. He was wounded in many places, his clothes stained crimson with blood, but he felt no pain. Each swing of his sword was delivered with all his might, his eyes burning with fierce fighting spirit, as he roared, "You madmen of the Kaguya Clan, today is your death day!"
The Senju Clan ninjas, skilled in Earth Release Ninjutsu, swiftly Hand Seals, instantly transforming the ground beneath their feet into thick earthen walls that blocked the rock attacks launched by the Kaguya Clan. However, these earthen walls only delayed the enemy's advance. The Kaguya Clan frantically smashed through the earthen walls with their bodies, some sacrificing their lives to break them down, continuing their charge towards the Senju Clan. Their aim was to fight to the death in close combat.
On the battlefield, the fighting between the two sides entered its most brutal phase. The ninjas of the Kaguya Clan and the Senju Clan were tightly entangled, with people falling every moment, blood gushing out and staining the ground dark red.
A Kaguya Clan ninja, already wounded in several places, suddenly sprang into action, tightly embracing a Senju Clan female ninja with his own body, and then detonating his Chakra. With a deafening roar, both were instantly pierced by countless bone spikes, perishing together. As the Senju Clan female ninja closed her eyes for the last time, blood trickling from her mouth, she whispered, " Orochimaru, I'm sorry, Mom can't come back." Such horrific scenes played out repeatedly on the battlefield. The Kaguya Clan seemed to have forgotten fear and death; their minds were consumed only by the thought of buying time for the Land of Water's army to retreat and upholding the honor of their Kekkei Genkai clan.
The Senju Clan ninjas were equally resolute, their pride as members of the Senju Clan forbidding them from retreating before their enemies. One Senju Clan elder, though advanced in years, displayed the ferocity of a tiger. He unleashed a dual-attribute water and earth Ninjutsu, slamming his hands into the ground, instantly creating a massive mudslide that engulfed the surrounding Kaguya Clan. However, the Kaguya Clan defiantly used their bones to hold back the mudslide, continuing their charge. Undeterred, the elder roared and exerted his strength once more, making the mudslide even more turbulent, ultimately engulfing the Kaguya Clan completely. Suddenly, countless bone spikes erupted from the ground, piercing the Senju Clan elder and killing him instantly. It was another mutual destruction.
The battle raged on for a long time, with both sides suffering heavy losses. The Kaguya Clan's numbers were dwindling, but their relentless attacks never ceased. On the Senju Clan's side, although they put up a fierce resistance, their death toll was also rising rapidly.
Finally, with the last Kaguya Clan falling, this fierce battle came to an end. The battlefield was deathly silent, with only a gentle breeze stirring up clouds of dust. The Kaguya Clan, which originally numbered over a thousand, was now completely wiped out; and the Senju Clan also lost five hundred members who fell forever on this land.
The survivors of the Senju Clan slowly lowered their weapons, gazing at the corpses strewn across the ground, their hearts filled with mixed emotions. They felt a sliver of relief at their victory, but at the same time, they were deeply grieved for their fallen kin. As for the Kaguya Clan, although they had failed, the madness and determination they displayed in this battle were etched into the hearts of the Senju Clan people.
After suffering heavy losses, the army of the Land of Water was no longer able to withstand Mito Uzumaki's fierce attacks. They began to flee frantically, eventually being chased to the seashore by Mito Uzumaki. Many jumped into the sea to escape, and Mito Uzumaki bombarded the enemy in the water with Tailed Beast Bomb, sending countless corpses floating on the surface. The Land of Water's army then retreated in disarray using Water Release Ninjutsu. This thrilling battle finally came to an end. The Land of Whirlpools successfully defended its capital, while the Land of Water was severely weakened and unable to launch another attack for a short period.
Mito Uzumaki then headed towards the western route to provide support, but she hadn't seen the Mizukage Minazuki Teru. She was somewhat worried, Hashirama had said that Minazuki Teru was very powerful.
When Mito Uzumaki arrived at the western battlefield, she saw Minazuki Teru slaughtering the Konoha army and was enraged. She quickly Hand Seals and unleashed a powerful Sealing Jutsu. Minazuki Teru sensed Mito Uzumaki's immense power and was startled. He knew he was outmatched by an opponent like Mito Uzumaki and didn't want to be sealed, so he decisively ordered a retreat. Mito Uzumaki transformed into her Nine-Tails Mode and relentlessly pursued him, eventually chasing him to the seashore. Akira Minazuki Teru then used Hydrification Technique, turning into a pool of Shimizu and disappearing into the sea.
This brutal war finally came to an end, leaving countless corpses and blood on the battlefield. Mito Uzumaki found the dismembered Mumei Senju on the beach; his weapons and armor had been taken by the people of the Land of Water. In this great battle, the Land of Water suffered over 100,000 casualties, Konoha over 43,000, Senju Clan clan 923 dead. Both sides were severely weakened, losing more than half their Senju Clan. The Land of Whirlpools's 60,000-strong army was reduced to just over 10,000. It could be said that if Mito Uzumaki had arrived a few days later, the country would have been destroyed. As a clan with Kekkei Genkai, they shouldn't have been so easily defeated. However, who knew that the Land of Water would use a scheme to directly kill nearly half of its ninja?
When Minazuki Teru learned the casualty figures, he nearly vomited blood, cursing Hozuki Gengetsu for his incompetence. He said he should atone with his death and hoped Hozuki Gengetsu could redeem himself through meritorious service.
The ninja army from the Land of Water, though driven into the sea, did not retreat. The two sides faced off along the coast, and the great battle was temporarily over. However, the shadow of war still loomed over the land, and no one knew when the next conflict would break out.
