Five days later, Golden Shovel Beach
The Fourth Elder Kairyū, led the Thirteen Nuclear Guardian Pillars to gather here, lined up in a row, and looked towards the direction of the Nuclear Ninja Village.
The miners, wearing Mining Type Two mining gear, stood on the edge of the cliff in the distance, looking at the crowd with puzzlement.
Kairyū sat on the reef, his legs trembling uncontrollably. "My Gundam, my Gundam, come quickly..."
Hōryūsai was closest to Zenhō, exchanged a glance. "→_→ What is the Fourth Elder muttering to himself?"
The Zenhō stood ramrod straight. "I don't know either."
Suddenly, Kairyū sensed something and jumped to his feet, shouting, "They're here! They're here! They're coming!"
The group, who had initially lost interest, suddenly heard a booming sound and saw more than a dozen black dots slowly flying towards them on the distant horizon.
Ujin scoffed, "Tch, it's just a flying ninja tool. I thought it was something amazing."
Kyōai frowned and said, "Hmm? This isn't a flying ninja tool!"
Chinchiku noticed the difference and said, "This size and voice... could this be the Gundam that you guys keep talking about?"
Kyōai understood. "Oh! No wonder the Fourth Elder was so nervous."
Everyone was astonished. "Gundam? It's finished so quickly?"
Just then, a faster figure arrived at the beach first—it was Hieimon —and landed in front of everyone. "Fourth Elder, the Gundam is finished."
"Hahaha! Good, good, good!"
Kyōai asked, "Teacher Shelin, shouldn't Gundam be our Nuclear Ninja Village's secret weapon? How come we've brought it here now?"
Gundam's size is too enormous, and what's worse, no one except the five elders can shrink it, making it extremely conspicuous.
Hieimon laughed and said, "The Second Elder said you encountered a lot of trouble here, so we brought it over."
Chinchiku also asked, "Isn't it too early to use this now?"
Hieimon shook his head. "Hades, the Hades of the Underworld, has sent word that the Shinobi World War is about to break out. You'd better make a name for yourselves as soon as possible, or you'll face endless trouble."
All members of the Nuclear Ninja Village knew that Hades, the King of the Underworld among the Seven Ninja Warlords Under the Shadow, was the true embodiment of beauty and wisdom. Kyōai and Chinchiku had received his guidance, were aware of his wisdom, and admired him greatly.
Upon hearing this, Kyōai's expression turned grave. "If what Hades said is true, then I'm afraid something really bad is going to happen."
Chinchiku exclaimed with admiration, "As expected of Lord Hades, he could foresee so far ahead!"
"Boom!"
As everyone was discussing this, fourteen Gundams flew in and stood on the beach.
Based on the original design, modifications were made according to the users' habits, and each one was equipped with a samurai sword, with different shapes and colors.
Kairyū was the first to lose his composure, flashing into his " Asura Type One " and starting to fiddle with it. "That's it! That's it! This is the feeling! Hahahaha! Eight mountains and nine seas, without end!"
" Kairyū, don't press that button! No! That's the self-destruct button!"
"Get out of here!"
"Oops!"
The members of the Department of Science and Technology who were piloting the Asura Type One were thrown off by Kairyū.
Hieimon handed a scroll to Kyōai: "The Fourth Elder has fallen ill again. This is the instruction manual. You can decide for yourselves when to use it."
"Yes, Teacher Shelin!"
"By the way, don't let the Fourth Elder and the First Elder cause trouble; they're Tenten acting like idiots."
After saying this, he flew onto the Asura Type One and exchanged a few words with Kairyū before leaving with all the members of the Department of Science and Technology using the Blue Bird Type Seven.
Kyōai was now in a dilemma. "Oh dear, the Gundam is too conspicuous. We need to plan when to use it first. Hmm? Where is everyone?!"
In that short time, everyone on the beach except for Kyōai jumped onto the 20-meter-tall Gundam and entered the cockpit.
"Wahaha! Surprisingly handsome!"
"Gundam is definitely a man's romance!"
"Yes, with this thing, what are orcs!"
Ah! A brand new way of asking questions!
Kyōai: "(°ー°) You guys calm down! You haven't even read the manual, what are you doing driving it?!"
"Boom! Bang! Squeak!"
Why did you hit me!
"Da da da..."
"Don't shoot!"
"Self-destruct program activated. 3. Self-destruct program canceled."
Everyone was as excited as children who had received a new toy. However, due to their unfamiliarity with operating the Gundam, they all fell down before they could even take a step, or swung their huge mechanical arms and hit the mechs next to them, causing chaos once again.
Kyōai quickly stopped them, and after much persuasion, dragged the extremely unwilling group out of the driver's seat and began explaining the operating procedures.
Hōryūsai: "→_→ Even piloting a Gundam is this troublesome."
Sōretsu: "Shut up! You just hit me!"
Kaname Seisen: " Sōretsu- chan, look at my Gundam, aren't those two scars on its head familiar?"
Ujin: " Kaname Seisen, shut up too! You almost self-destructed just now, and you still have the nerve to say that!"
Seeing the group's sudden loss of common sense, Kyōai said with a mournful face, "You guys better take this seriously, or you'll be worn down by your own internal conflicts before even reaching the battlefield."
After much persuasion and calming down of everyone's agitated emotions, it took several hours before they finally fully understood how to operate the Gundam.
Suddenly, a red flame rose into the sky.
"Um?"
The flames were rising in the direction of the Blade Ninja Village.
Kashirō was startled. "Red flames, that's the orcs' signal! Could it be that the orcs have launched an attack?"
Kyōai stood up. "Why now of all times!"
Chinchiku asked, " Kyōai, what should we do? We're too far apart."
Zenhō pinched Kairyū: "It's all your fault, Fourth Elder! Why did you have to summon us at this time? Now there's no one in the village to lead us!"
Kairyū leaned back strategically. "How should I know! Besides, you guys are having a lot of fun, aren't you? And besides, the boss's Shadow Clone is right there, so don't worry."
Kyōai stroked her chin. "I've temporarily handed over command to Shino and Temari. Although we don't know the beastmen's deployment, with their intelligence, they should be able to hold them off for a while. Let's pilot the Gundam over there immediately."
Kendon chuckled, "Hehehe, let's make a grand entrance! Let's wipe them all out!"
Kyōai stood up. " Kendon, this war must revolve around you, with the primary objective being to remove the Beast Seal Transformation."
After the Beast Seal Transformation is released, people have a high chance of obtaining a certain degree of Sage Body. With guidance and assistance, they can practice the Nuclear Ninja Style Senjutsu. Although the strength is much weaker, this opens the door to Chakra training, allowing ordinary people to condense Chakra. Therefore, the primary task is to rescue the residents of Yamakawa Castle who have not yet been completely corrupted.
Kendon chuckled, "Hehehe, but if the Beast Seal Transformation has completely eroded your mind, then my antidote won't work. So, this is a blitzkrieg."
Kyōai nodded and said, "Yes, once we return to the Blade Ninja Village, we'll retrieve and use the antidote immediately. To conserve our strength, we'll only deploy the Gundams of Kaname Seisen, Sōsuke, Kendon Mayuto this time. The others Immobility for now."
What?!
"After all that, you only need three?"
"Alright, let's go back to the Blade Ninja Village. This battle will be the one where blades Jonin world stage! We cannot afford to lose!"
"I'm unhappy that we can't use Gundam!"
Kaname Seisen's Gundam is named Enma Cricket. It is entirely black and slender. Apart from a katana, it has no other weapons. The purpose of the six rings on its back is unknown.
The Sōsuke, named Kyōka Suigetsu, is of standard size, with no additions or subtractions to its weaponry. However, its entire body is smooth white, like a mirror, reflecting light.
The Kendon Gundam Demonic Womb Subduing Seal has a rather bulky body, especially in the abdomen, which makes it appear to have slightly poor mobility. In order to give it the same mobility as other models, most of the energy of its weapons has been transferred to the power system, so it only has a katana.
Besides Kairyū, everyone else jumped onto Gundam's shoulders.
"Set off!"
"All troops, attack!"
"Boom!"
Three Gundams shot into the air and headed towards the Gold Mine Mountain.
