Chapter 1057: Splitting Forces to Aid Cloud Village and Suna
Chapter 1057: Splitting Forces to Aid Cloud Village and Suna
While Yecheng was also an old bachelor, he had no trouble finding a wife, for in Konoha, there were countless female ninjas who admired him.
Much like Naruto, who was once ignored in Konoha, but after the Ninja World War, he became a hero with a legion of young admirers.
Yecheng's advantages were even more pronounced than Naruto's after the war. His looks were impeccable, with no signs of aging, and he maintained the appearance of someone in his early twenties.
In terms of strength, he was the strongest ninja in Konoha, capable of single-handedly defeating all the previous Hokage. He possessed both the "Sharingan" and "Mokuton" Kekkei Genkai, making him the new "God of the Ninja World."
In terms of status, he was the disciple of the Fifth Hokage and the current head of the Senju clan. If things went as expected, he would almost certainly become the Sixth Hokage.
Naruto, just by being a hero, was already adored by countless young women. With Yecheng's current conditions, would he lack admirers in Konoha? That would be a joke.
Teacher Minato might think Lord Yecheng was lonely, but that was only because most of his admirers, under pressure from certain individuals, had no choice but to withdraw themselves...
"The Sand Village and the Cloud Village are too far apart. If we support them one by one, we might miss the critical moment. Why don't we split our forces?
Senior Minato, you and I both have access to space-time ninjutsu. We can each aid the Sand Village and the Cloud Village, respectively."
After a moment of hesitation, Minato ultimately nodded and accepted Yecheng's suggestion.
Uchiha Fugaku's deployment and the strength of his forces had surpassed their initial expectations. When they arrived at the Mist Village front, more than thirty percent of the Kirigakure ninjas had already been casualties.
The White Zetsu Army was manageable, but the Eternal Truth ninjas, as top-tier combatants, were a different story.
The longer the conflict dragged on, the greater the losses would be for the major ninja villages. The original ninjutsu alliance of ninety thousand ninjas, at this rate, might struggle to muster sixty thousand by the time they regrouped.
Speed is of the essence. Rather than supporting one village at a time, it would be more efficient to split our forces.
With their space-time ninjutsu, even if they couldn't win, it wouldn't be difficult for them to retreat safely.
After some discussion, Minato took Kakashi to support the Sand Village, while Yecheng took Rin and Obito to aid the Cloud Village.
Initially, Yecheng had planned to act alone, sending Minato's team to the Sand Village.
However, Minato pointed out that Rin, as the Sanbi Jinchuriki, might become a target for Uchiha Fugaku. Having her with Yecheng would give him peace of mind.
Rin was naturally delighted to be working with Yecheng, as she had never been on a proper mission with him since becoming his disciple.
When Obito heard that his goddess, Rin, would be going on a mission with Yecheng, he immediately refused to be left behind and insisted on joining them. Thus, the final grouping was decided.
Yecheng's Teleportation Magic could only take him to places he had visited before, so they could not teleport directly to the Cloud Village front. Instead, they teleported to the nearest location and then walked the rest of the way.
When Yecheng and his team reached a plain, they finally found the Cloud Village forces battling the White Zetsu Army and the Eternal Truth ninjas.
Compared to the Mist Village, the battle at the Cloud Village was significantly more intense.
Although the Cloud Village had been severely damaged once before, as one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages with combat power second only to Konoha, the ninjas of the Cloud Village were known for their fiery tempers and brutal fighting style.
Compared to the original plot, because Konoha had to take the blame, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer Bee did not manage to survive until the end. Instead, he was captured alive by Uchiha Fugaku when the Akatsuki invaded the Cloud Hidden Village.
So now, the Cloud Hidden Village front, aside from the large number of White Zetsu Army, faces the strongest Eternal Truth Ninjas, which are the Third Raikage, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki Killer Bee, and the Two-Tails Jinchuriki Yugito.
With two Jinchuriki and one Kage, this lineup is by no means inferior to the Mist Hidden Village's two Kage and the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist.
The Fourth Raikage, especially after his father, the Third Raikage, and his younger brother, Killer Bee, were both killed and then used by the Eternal Truth, is burning with rage, wishing he could kick Uchiha Fugaku's head like a ball.
However, despite the Fourth Raikage's anger, the current battle situation is decidedly unfavorable for the Cloud Hidden Village.
He and the Eternal Truth's Killer Bee are fiercely clashing with "Lightning Release", while Dariu, using Storm Release, is barely holding his own against the Two-Tails Jinchuriki Yugito.
But Samui and the other Cloud Hidden Village ninjas are almost completely overpowered when facing their former Third Raikage.
Samui, with her short yellow hair, fair skin, and the only chest in the Ninja World that can rival Tsunade's, looks at the Third Raikage, who is clad in his Lightning Release armor, with a solemn expression.
Although the Cloud Hidden Village now has a numerical advantage, they are suffering heavy casualties against the former Third Raikage.
No matter how many attacks hit the Third Raikage's Lightning Release armor, they barely scratch him, while his strongest attack, Hell Stab, causes massive casualties every time he strikes.
"Damn it, how can we break through the Third Raikage's defenses?
The former Third Raikage could single-handedly fight the Eight-Tails and suppress it, even battling thousands of ninjas for three days and three nights before finally exhausting himself. He's a formidable warrior!"
Wind Release can counter Lightning Release. Theoretically, using wind chakra is the best way to break through the strongest defense, the Lightning Release armor.
However, the problem is that the Cloud Hidden Village does not have any powerful ninjas who specialize in Wind Release.
Even if they had a strong ninja, could they really hope to break through the Third Raikage's Lightning Release armor?
The Third Raikage has fought countless battles in his life, but the only scar on his resilient body seems to be the one on his chest from his battle with the Eight-Tails.
As the Third Raikage, clad in his Lightning Release armor, moves like a bolt of lightning across the battlefield, a massive purple-black sphere suddenly shoots towards him from a distance.
For the Cloud Hidden Village ninjas, who have perfect Jinchuriki of the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails, this purple-black sphere is not unfamiliar.
At first, Samui and the others were shocked, thinking that Killer Bee or Yugito had made a bad situation even worse.
But they soon realized that the Tailed Beast Ball, which suddenly shot from afar, was aimed at the Third Raikage.
"Boom!"
Seeing the Tailed Beast Ball hurtling towards him, the Third Raikage shows no fear. Clad in his Lightning Release armor, he does not dodge but instead charges forward with his Hell Stab!
