"Now is the time for us to end the Third Shinobi World War!"
At Mukai's command, the ninjas who had been standing guard at the border of the Land of Wind began to don the latest mecha.
There are three main types of mechs deployed in service. One type is the Reaper Jetpack Mecha used by Ninjutsu- type ninjas.
While ensuring basic defensive capabilities, this mech's jetpack allows for efficient maneuverability and brief periods of aerial flight.
The high-purity Chakra Metal gloves on their hands greatly enhance the power of their Ninjutsu.
They belong to Pakura's command and are mainly responsible for controlling the field and providing mobile support.
Taijutsu -type ninjas wear mass-produced Zealot Mecha with anti-joint powered lower limbs, which greatly enhance their agility.
The Chakra longswords on their arms make these ninjas, skilled in Taijutsu, exceptionally formidable in close combat.
They were led by Shisō, and most of them were proficient in using the Second Activation of the Seven Heavens Breathing Method and the first two gates of the Eight Gates Released Formation.
Some elites can even open three gates.
Their main task was to break through enemy lines and prevent enemy advances.
Meanwhile, the Puppet Brigade led by Chiyo has been completely equipped with mass-produced Quadrupedal Immortal Heavy Combat Mecha.
These mechs are equipped with two heavy cannons that fire supercapacitors and two electromagnetic shotguns that fire projectiles.
With the manipulation of Chakra Threads, complex control that resists interference can be achieved without relying on external forces.
It can provide long-range fire suppression as well as mid-range barrage attacks.
Meanwhile, the trio of Mukai, Scorpion, Konan used their respective mechs to provide high-speed aerial support.
After so much preparation, it's time to let Iwagakure and Kumogakure experience the awe-inspiring power of technology.
Mukai's voice came through the humanoid form of the War God Mecha:
"It's time for this pointless Third Shinobi World War Shinobi World War to end!"
Now, follow me, and let's end this chaos together!
We will win!
"Victory is certain! Victory is certain! Victory is certain!"
The battlefields of Konoha and Iwagakure in the Land of Grass
"Cough...!"
Orochimaru knelt on one knee on the messy, rubble-strewn ground, his pale face even more bloodless.
"Heh heh, Ōnoki truly lives up to his reputation!"
If my teacher had had that courage to go into battle, things wouldn't have turned out this badly."
He wiped the dark red blood that kept seeping from the corner of his mouth and muttered to himself.
His signature long hair was covered in dust, and for the first time, a look of exhaustion appeared in his golden snake eyes.
A large chunk was missing from his left shoulder, the edges of which were eerily smooth, without any bleeding.
This damage was caused by Dust Release: Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique.
If he hadn't managed to turn his body using the software at the last moment, it would have been his head that was erased.
The Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, that short old man, was hovering in mid-air.
His hands remained in the Hand Seals for Dust Release, his gray beard fluttered in the Chakra flow, and his eyes were as cold as a rock.
Even without his intervention, he was enough to restrain Orochimaru, a top-tier fighter.
" Konoha's strength is nothing special."
If it weren't for those strange ninja tools, I would have wiped you all out long ago!
His voice, amplified by Chakra, echoed coldly across the battlefield.
" Lord Orochimaru!"
The nearby Konoha Ninja cried out in alarm and tried to rush forward to cover them, but were blocked by the giant snake summoned by Orochimaru.
"Don't come any closer! Ōnoki is deliberately provoking us to come here and die!"
"Ōnoki can't do anything to me, don't worry about me, just hold off the other Iwagakure attackers!"
Ōnoki revealed a cruel smile:
" Orochimaru, do you think you can delay your defeat by using secret techniques to hold me back?"
How naive!
Just then, a roar that shook the earth came from the valley on the flank of the battlefield!
That wasn't a human voice; it was filled with primal violence and heat.
"Die! Roar--!!!"
Crimson Chakra erupted into the sky like a volcanic eruption, turning the sky an ominous dark red.
A monster covered in molten lava armor and with four tails made of pure Chakra lava swaying behind it appeared, charging into the battlefield with unstoppable force!
Wherever he went, the ground melted, rocks turned into boiling magma, and the scorching heat distorted the air itself.
It's the Four-Tails Jinchūriki — Roshi, in his Tailed Beast Transformation Mode (four tails)!
" Lava Release: Flower Fruit Mountain!"
Roshi roared and slammed his fists into the ground!
Centered on him, the earth within a hundred meters in front of him was like an awakened volcano, with countless columns of scorching lava bursting out of the ground and soaring into the sky without warning!
Its range and power far exceed those of ordinary Ninjutsu.
Many Konoha Ninja who were unable to dodge in time were instantly engulfed by the lava.
Those who managed to dodge were severely burned by the splashing molten lava and scorching heat waves, and their formation was instantly thrown into chaos.
"It's the Four-Tails Jinchūriki!"
"Scatter! Don't gather!"
" Water Release ninjas, assemble! Use Water Release for defense!"
The desperate shouts of the Konoha command seemed so faint amidst the roaring sound of exploding magma.
The power of Tailed Beast is something these ordinary ninjas simply cannot handle!
Should we rush in and stab with Kunai?
A flash of golden light!
Minato Namikaze appeared like a ghost behind and to the side of Roshi, gripping a specially made Kunai and forcefully stabbing it towards Roshi's waist.
The teleportation ability of the Flying Thunder God Technique allowed him to evade the magma defenses erected by Roshi and appear behind him.
However, just as the Kunai about to hit, a scorching gust of wind swept in.
Roshi could even fully turn around, a massive tail made of lava and Chakra swept across!
Even more terrifying, it wasn't just the tail that swept over, but also a large expanse of scorching, deep red lava!
These lava flows instantly covered multiple areas from which Minato could have teleported away.
Meanwhile, the lava armor on Roshi's body instantly thickened, completely ignoring Minato's Kunai!
If Minato insists on continuing to stab, his own hand will be crippled by the lava first!
A lava armor that combines offense and defense!
Minato's pupils contracted, and he had no choice but to abandon his attack. The golden light flashed again, and he appeared ten meters away next to another pre-set Kunai.
In mid-air, he threw out five special Kunai in succession, his figure flashing constantly, trying to find Roshi's weakness.
"It's no use, Yellow Flash! I came here specifically to deal with you!"
Your attacks can't harm me!
Roshi turned around, his crimson eyes locking onto Minato on his lava-covered face.
"You can instantly kill more than ten Iwagakure Jonin, but can you do anything to me?"
Die!
Before he finished speaking, he clasped his hands together in prayer:
" Lava Release: Scorching River Rock Technique!"
This time, instead of spewing fireballs, Roshi guides the jets to continuously burn and spread a pool of lava!
Minato's figure flashed rapidly across the battlefield, golden light flashing continuously.
He narrowly avoided the lava attacks time and time again, but still couldn't find any weakness in Roshi's defenses.
The Flying Thunder God Technique allows for the selection of the optimal assassination position through unpredictable movement.
Roshi's Lava Release not only encased himself in thick lava armor, but also wreaked havoc on the battlefield.
This place has become a world of lava, the air itself distorted by the scorching heat.
Lava flowed everywhere and flames raged, making even breathing scorching hot.
Despite Minato Namikaze's reliance on Space-Time Ninjutsu Flying Thunder God, he always managed to dodge lava attacks at the last second.
However, his room for maneuver is being gradually compressed, his teleportation options are becoming fewer and fewer, and the risks are increasing.
Minato Namikaze glanced at Orochimaru, who was being held back by Ōnoki, then vanished from the spot and reappeared in a safe area outside the lava pool.
He bit his finger, rubbed the blood on his palm, quickly Hand Seals, and slammed his palm onto the ground:
" Summoning Technique!"
As the white smoke dissipated, Gamabunta, with bandages wrapped around his waist, appeared on the battlefield.
"It's Minato, huh? You're in trouble too?"
Gamabunta looked at Roshi standing in the lava lake and took a deep drag on his pipe:
"Another battle against Tailed Beast, what a hassle. Jirai 'Gamaken and Gamahiro have both gone to help deal with the Jinchūriki of Kumogakure."
"Let's finish this quickly and go provide support."
"Yes Gamabunta Wen, please use Water Release to create a safe passage for me."
Gamabunta nodded his enormous head and clapped his frog paws:
Water Release: Iron Cannon Ball!
A giant water sphere shot out from its mouth and crashed directly into Roshi, who was standing in the lava lake.
"A mere trick! Lava Bullet!"
Roshi smiled contemptuously and shot out a scorching lava ball, blasting it towards the incoming water ball.
Gamabunta and Roshi were exchanging blows across the lava lake, with the lava ball clearly gaining the upper hand.
As the lava suppressed the water bullets, Roshi became increasingly smug, and the lava balls he ejected grew ever larger.
The entire lava battlefield was shrouded in billowing white mist.
Just then, golden light flashed continuously within the white mist. Roshi only felt a blur before his eyes as a figure swept past his side.
Did it go astray?
Before he could even ask a question, a peculiarly shaped Kunai appeared in front of his eyes!
Minato Namikaze!
Using the cooling effect of the Water Gun and the fog as cover, he successfully appeared in front of Roshi and thrust his Kunai straight into Lao Zi's eyes!
A decisive blow!
