"Boom! Boom boom!!!"
The colossal Senju Buddha stood immovable on the battlefield, like a mountain!
Countless Kunai with Explosive Tag reflected endless Kakkō soaring into the sky on the surface of the Buddha!
" Lord Kazekage!"
"We've already used up hundreds of thousands of Kunai and a million explosive talismans; our supplies are almost exhausted!"
One of the Allied Shinobi Forces soldiers standing beside Gaara reported anxiously.
Gaara's gaze swept over the figure crackling with lightning beneath the giant Buddha, Gaara replied solemnly, "Don't worry about depleting your reserves, you must help the Raikage restrain the giant Buddha's movement!"
"Yes!"
As the order was relayed, the explosions became even more frequent!
Strangely, the enormous wooden Buddha silently endured the attacks from the crowd, without making any move to retaliate.
Time passed second by second,
From sunrise to sunset, this strange battle had lasted for most of the day!
The wooden Buddha standing in the center of the battlefield remains completely intact!
The explosion that roared for half a day was far slower than the Wood Buddha's repair speed, since the Reanimated Body's Chakra could be used indefinitely!
The Raikage, who had already arrived at the scene to provide support, was now panting heavily and looking disheveled!
Faced with the enormous wooden Buddha controlled by Hashirama, Raikage A's advantages of high single-target attack and speed were completely rendered ineffective!
The only way is to fight your way up step by step from the very bottom to the figure of Hashirama standing on the wooden Buddha's shoulder!
Along the way, countless twisted branches as hard as steel and endless obstacles and attacks prevented Ai from even getting close to his main body, let alone fighting the First Hokage!
I've been firing at full power for most of the day, and I almost died of exhaustion on the battlefield!
Ai also tried to use the sand from the Kazekage to launch a direct attack from the air! But faced with the overwhelming barrage of fists and palms, Ai still had no chance of breaking through!
" Kazekage, do you have any other countermeasures?"
"Gaara, who was standing to the side.
Gaara looked up at the indestructible Buddha and shook his head solemnly.
Even setting aside acting, Gaara really has no choice in this situation.
If it were just him and the Raikage, they could use their speed or levitation to escape the battlefield and temporarily cease hostilities to avoid danger!
But of the tens of thousands of Allied Shinobi Forces, only less than five thousand remain capable of maintaining high-speed movement!
The other half were either bound by Wood Release: Tree World or had exhausted their Chakra, making high-speed teleportation impossible!
Gaara didn't mention leaving these people behind, and Raikage A didn't even consider it!
That's why this strange battle has continued to this day!
Just when everyone was at a loss, the towering Buddha statue, which had stood firm, suddenly turned into a shower of wood chips as the breeze blew through the air!
Noticing the decrease in attack frequency, Hashirama also calculated that the Kunai and explosive talismans were running out.
After the Hashirama containing the giant Buddha took a deep look in the direction of the Allied Shinobi Forces, it vanished from the spot, leaving the bewildered crowd staring at each other in disbelief.
As time went by, seven days had passed in the blink of an eye!
At the Allied Shinobi Forces Headquarters, Inoichi Yamanaka, wearing his sensory ninja tools, is reporting on the enemy's movements!
"About 100 kilometers to the north, Lord Hashirama Chakra has appeared!"
"Seventy-five kilometers to the south, a large number of summoning beasts and the aura of Madara Uchiha have appeared!"
"Sixty-four kilometers to the north, we have detected the Chakra reactions of six individuals comparable to Kage Level!"
"East..."
Inoichi reported non-stop, and the strategist team of the Five Kingdoms Alliance, led by Shikaku, quickly conveyed the location details to the Five Kage team that was traveling on the road in a special way!
The Five Kage are so busy that they have no time to return to headquarters to oversee operations, constantly shuttling between battlefields to provide support!
Because of the enemy's unpredictable appearances and disappearances, the Five Kage split up and formed teams to intercept or seal them!
The Hokage's logistics department and the Kazekage's surprise attack unit joined forces, with the Raikage and Tsuchikage acting as commanders...
As for Mizukage, he formed a team all by himself!
It wasn't that Mei Terumi was being ostracized or suspected by the Allied Shinobi Forces...
Mei Terumi, known as the Mizukage, and two Uchiha Clan bodyguards, Shisui and Uchiha Itachi, whose strength was comparable to that of Kage Level.
It's simply that the power of the Kirigakure is strong enough to form a main force on its own!
" Kazekage, don't you find this war a bit strange?"
In the rapidly moving convoy, Tsunade head and asked Gaara a question.
This Fourth Shinobi World War was instigated by a mysterious powerful figure...
Over these seven days, the course of the war has left the allied Allied Shinobi Forces, including their high-ranking officials, feeling utterly bewildered!
Gaara, though fully aware of the situation, nodded with a serious and puzzled expression.
"Yes, the fighting these past seven days has indeed been rather strange."
"Each time there was a chance to annihilate the main force, the enemy repeatedly withdrew from the battlefield at crucial moments."
Just like Hashirama seven days ago, he had the chance to kill this army of tens of thousands of people, but suddenly left!
The same script was playing out again and again in the seven days that followed, as wars broke out in various places.
What exactly is the enemy's objective?
"They clearly have the ability to make a decisive decision, yet they insist on dragging things out like this..."
Tsunade continued talking to herself about the bizarre course of the war, her brows furrowing even more deeply.
The largest Shinobi World war to date, a coalition of countless nations, was nothing more than a script already prepared by the adults.
All of this, which seems strange, is simply to deplete the ninja tool inventory that the Allied Shinobi Forces have accumulated over the past six months with a large amount of money.
Although Gaara knew the truth, he still appeared deep in thought in front of Tsunade.
Meanwhile, the mastermind behind the immense turmoil sweeping through the entire Shinobi World was in the basement of Kirigakure Company, watching a unique surgery unfold.
Kimimaro lay naked on the operating table, his eyes closed, already unconscious!
Kimimaro's current physical condition, while supposedly being treated for Kekkei Genkai Disease, looks more like someone who has been cruelly dissected!
Except for his head, which was relatively intact, Kimimaro's chest, thighs, and arms were all neatly cut open at the joints with a sharp scalpel!
If it weren't for the glass-like devices on both sides of this specially designed operating table, the scarlet blood would have long since stained the pristine white floor a different color!
"The outside world has been fighting for so long, boss, aren't you interested in seeing the turmoil you yourself have stirred up?"
Orochimaru, acting as the chief surgeon, chatted with Haruma about the current situation in the Shinobi World while slicing open Kimimaro's body.
As Orochimaru placed cells from his own body into Kimimaro's bones, Haruma replied without changing his expression, "Whether you watch or not, the ending won't change."
"Oh~"
Orochimaru surveyed the blood-soaked body on the operating table with admiration, then asked with interest, "The Allied Forces are quite large, and they have many powerful members who haven't yet submitted."
"Do you really have that much faith in those Reanimated Body?"
Haruma smiled calmly and said casually, "The story was created by me, so there might be some unexpected developments in the plot."
"But... the ending I want will never change."
Sensing Ban Kimimaro's current state, and finding no backlash after adding his own suppressed cells, Haruma stretched and slowly walked towards the door.
"Whether those Reanimated Body are sealed away or destroyed, it doesn't matter."
"Even if they all disappear, can the entire Shinobi World world really defy my will if they join forces?"
"They're nothing but a bunch of worthless mortals."
