Hiruzen Sarutobi felt a faint unease in his heart. Continuously accelerating and rushing toward the center.
Earlier, a dark shadow had blocked the Tailed Beast Bomb. He didn't know if it was that embryo or a creation of the other party.
Regardless of which it was, he had to reach the central area at the fastest speed and kill the target.
"Bastard!"
A sudden, explosive roar rang out.
The voice erupted like a shockwave. Echoing in all directions.
Hiruzen's cold eyes looked over. A bird-beast with resplendent feathers was flying in the sky.
The unusual aura immediately made the Bird-Headed Beast notice Hiruzen.
"What strong chakra."
The Bird-Headed Beast immediately looked at Hiruzen with drooling greed.
"I'm going to eat you."
Its cape-like wings immediately shook. Its massive chakra transformed into a sky full of feathers.
A portion turned into wind. A portion turned into fire. Rapidly intertwining to become a torrential rain of fire.
Hiruzen planted the Adamantine Staff nearby. Instantly formed hand seals. Created Shadow Clones.
They respectively used Water Release, Wind Release, and Earth Release. A water dragon soared into the sky. An earth dragon appeared on the ground, opening its mouth to spew an earth current.
A fierce wind swept up both. Instantly overpowering the sky full of fiery rain.
The ninjas nearby also cast Ninjutsu one after another. Contending against the fiery rain in the sky.
The Bird-Headed Beast's attack intensity was not as strong as Hiruzen's. But the area and density of the attack were terrifying. Almost like hundreds of elite ninjas attacking simultaneously.
"Damn old man."
The Bird-Headed Beast stared fixedly at Hiruzen. The feathers on its body shining even brighter.
Right at this moment, a shadow enveloped it.
Before it had time to look up, a strong wind had already swept over.
It only had time to turn its body slightly before the Adamantine Staff swung over.
BANG.
The massive force made it impossible for the Bird-Headed Beast to resist. Its entire body was smashed toward the ground like a cannonball.
Hiruzen floated in the air. Continuing to swing the Adamantine Staff. He wasn't prepared to let this opportunity slip by.
The Hiruzen below also charged toward the direction the Bird-Headed Beast landed. But he felt a faint unease in his heart.
It was too smooth. The number and strength of these monsters were too weak.
He thought there would be a life-and-death crisis. But it simply hadn't appeared.
Near the center of the Daimyo's residence. The epicenter of the Tailed Beast Bomb explosion.
Yagura Karatachi wrapped a tail around a pale youth. Continuously constricting until he directly crushed him.
The exploding body melted into white spider silk. The blood-red eyes fell to the ground. Rolling twice before slowly turning into spider silk.
"Where is the person behind you?"
Yagura stared expressionlessly at the white-haired youth ahead. Speaking coldly.
The white-haired, white-clothed youth smiled slightly. Four of the six eyes on his face had already closed. Leaving traces of blood that made him look somewhat alluring.
"I didn't expect the dignified Fourth Mizukage to have already been controlled by Genjutsu. No wonder greed, despair, fear, and anger had no effect."
The Spider-Monkey spoke with a sigh.
"Oh? So those four clones corresponded to these four emotions. What about you?"
A change appeared on Yagura's expressionless face. Wisps of killing intent emerged. Even his tone of voice changed.
"Me? Arrogance, of course."
As the Spider-Monkey spoke, his only remaining pair of eyes flickered with red light.
An extremely obvious Genjutsu fluctuation transmitted over. Yagura showed no signs of dodging. Slightly raising his head and looking at the white-haired youth with a mocking gaze.
His pupils turned red. Three tomoe slowly appeared. Taking on the appearance of the Sharingan.
He completely ignored the power of the Genjutsu and even erupted with the same power.
Genjutsu: Sharingan.
The moment their eyes met, the powerful Genjutsu of the Sharingan acted upon the Spider-Monkey.
But immediately after, the white-haired youth smiled and tilted his head.
"Is it very strange? The Sharingan Genjutsu actually had no effect."
"The Sharingan isn't the only thing in this world that can resist Genjutsu."
Yagura's expression was cold. Staring at the white-haired youth opposite him. Wanting to transform and kill him.
But the moment this thought appeared, it was suppressed. No one could resist an Uchiha Genjutsu.
"Is this the ability of Arrogance?"
The white-haired youth smiled and shook his head. Speaking with a face full of ease.
"No, no, no. The ability of Arrogance is not resisting Genjutsu. Its ability is very ordinary. It just makes people believe they are right."
"Indeed very ordinary. And also very stupid. To actually reveal your ability just like that."
Hearing this, Yagura laughed disdainfully.
"Stupid?"
The Spider-Monkey cast a glance behind Yagura. Laughing internally that he had stalled for about enough time.
"Is that so? It's possible that this makes the effect even better."
The four closed eyes on the white-haired youth's face slowly vanished. His entire aura underwent a subtle change.
"So-called arrogance. It's not ignorance. Not paranoia... but knowing yet being difficult to change."
The expression of Obito—who was controlling Yagura—changed slightly. Just now, for some reason, he suddenly started controlling Yagura to converse with the other party.
Was I influenced? No. No one can cast Genjutsu on a Mangekyo-level Sharingan. Unless it's also a Mangekyo Sharingan.
Was he stalling for time just now? It's useless. They're just a bunch of dying beasts. Even if the trash of the Hidden Mist Village were careless, there's still Pain and the others.
"Playtime is over."
Yagura's eyes turned cold again.
A tail instantly shot out. Piercing through the white-haired youth's body before he could react.
Not a single drop of fresh blood flowed out. The white-haired youth's body turned into a white solution-like spider silk.
A pair of red eyeballs rolled onto the ground. A moment later, they also turned into a pile of spider silk.
Almost simultaneously, a terrifying chakra fluctuation erupted from behind.
Rewind to over ten minutes ago.
Mangetsu Hozuki, holding the chakra-radiating Hiramekarei, swung out a chakra drill.
It hit a tall, heavily armored turtle monster soldier. Clearly not an ordinary foot soldier. Emitting an ear-piercing sound.
The turtle soldier was directly blasted into the ruins. Its body pierced. Fresh blood flowing out. Its chakra aura slowly dissipating.
Sensing this scene, Mangetsu finally breathed a sigh of relief. The skin of these monsters was truly too thick. Killing one consumed a considerable amount of chakra.
Just at this moment, the ground trembled slightly. As if something was burrowing underneath.
"Watch out."
An exclamation rang out.
A strange snake with a large mouth full of sharp fangs suddenly burst from the ground. Pouncing toward Mangetsu.
Having been highly vigilant, the moment he was bitten by the fangs, he turned into a log.
He had long used the Substitution Technique to dodge to the side. But the person behind him suffered a miserable fate.
That was also an elite ninja of the Hozuki clan. Swallowed in one gulp.
An invisible spherical light enveloped this ninja. Rapidly extracting all his chakra and information.
Mangetsu, having dodged to the side, finally saw the enemy clearly. It was a strange snake that had burrowed out from underground.
A strange snake made entirely of bones with a bloody maw. And it wasn't the only one. Many strange snakes burst from the ground.
"Everyone, watch out underground."
Mei Terumi shouted loudly and immediately launched an attack.
