Chapter 319: Helping Outsiders Instead of Your Own Family?
Chapter 319: Helping Outsiders Instead of Your Own Family?
"Fire Style: Dragon Flame Jutsu!"
"Wind Style: Whirlwind Hurricane!"
"Earth Style: Muddy River Flow!"
"Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
"Lightning Style: Lightning Beast!"
At that moment, at the ninja base camp, as the Hayabusa Unit launched their surprise attack, the five Hayabusa elders at the forefront swiftly performed hand seals.
Compared to regular ninja techniques, the five-nature transformation techniques they unleashed were far more powerful and had a much wider range.
As the techniques blended and combined, they transformed into a super-large composite jutsu, surging forward with immense power towards the area where most of the Ninja Alliance troops were gathered.
"What's happening?"
"There are enemies!!"
"How did the enemies appear here?"
"What powerful ninja techniques!"
". . ."
The Hayabusa Unit's initial targets were the Ninja Alliance's staff officers and intelligence units who were trying to re-establish communications.
Naruto Uzumaki, Shikamaru Nara, and Ino Yamanaka sensed something amiss and turned around, their pupils narrowing in surprise.
Without time to ponder how the enemies had arrived, they were well aware that such powerful jutsu were beyond their ability to withstand, and they immediately prepared to dodge.
Suddenly, a frail, elderly figure appeared in front of them.
The sound of the Shadow Clone Technique being activated echoed, and the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, arrived just in time, along with four of his shadow clones. Each of them performed hand seals for fire, wind, water, earth, and lightning styles.
"Five Elements Unison: Great Ball Technique!"
Hiruzen and his shadow clones pulled their abdomens in, tilted their heads back, and channeled a large amount of chakra into their mouths. Finally, they opened their mouths and spat out their respective elements simultaneously.
In the blink of an eye, massive flames, gale-force winds, gushing waters, earthen rivers, and crackling lightning surged forth from their mouths, intertwining and merging into a massive composite jutsu that rushed forward.
Five-nature transformation against five-nature transformation!
In the instant they collided, the entire Ninja Alliance base camp seemed to be enveloped in a dazzling display of ninjutsu.
Amidst the relentless, thunderous roars, the wildness of fire, the sharpness of wind, the versatility of water, the heft of earth, and the volatility of lightning were showcased in all their glory.
It was a spectacular and luxurious display of ninjutsu.
"How beautiful! This is truly art! Pure art, indeed!" Deidara stared at the front mirror, his face filled with fascination as he immersed himself in the moment.
"Now is not the time to space out, Deidara!" Kisame Hoshigaki snapped his fingers in front of Deidara's face, not waiting for a response before proceeding with the earlier plan to clear out the other areas of the Ninja Alliance base camp.
Startled by Kisame, Deidara finally snapped out of his trance.
Taking one last admiring glance at the fleeting beauty before him, he pulled out a clay bird, enlarged it, and hopped on. With a mischievous grin, he flew into the sky and exclaimed:
"Now, it's time to show my true art! Indeed!"
Not only Kisame and Deidara, but all the members of the Hayabusa Unit, being the elite among thousands of ninjas, dispersed in small teams at that moment, swiftly engaging and resolving the ongoing battle.
Even the five Hayabusa elders who had just performed the five-nature transformation technique and were surprised that someone could counter their attack were no exception.
There were already people dealing with the one who had intercepted their jutsu—Hiruzen Sarutobi.
"You're from the Sarutobi clan, aren't you?"
After the five-nature techniques canceled each other out, Hiruzen summoned the Kongou Nyoi, ready to continue the fight. However, a voice suddenly rang out.
He looked up and saw a silver-armored elder with the Hayabusa clan emblem imprinted on it, standing before him, blocking his path.
"Are you... the previous generation leader of the Hayabusa clan?"
Hiruzen studied the elder before him, a sense of familiarity in his eyes, as he asked.
Hayabusa Muri nodded, a mixture of emotions in his voice as he assessed Hiruzen, "I never expected that the little brat from back then would also become an old man, not so different from me now."
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen, appearing as an elderly man, replied with a respectful tone despite being a few years older than Hayai Mu:
"Thank you for your praise. I never expected to meet you again under such circumstances, Elder Hayai. However, your timing, along with that of the other Hayai elders, is most unfortunate."
As Sarutobi Hiruzen spoke, he surreptitiously gathered information about their surroundings.
The battle had already commenced.
Although the number of Hayai troops paled in comparison to the Ninja Alliance, their individual strengths were notable. Even with the presence of powerful reincarnated shinobi like the Third and Fourth Raikage, the Third and Fourth Kazekage, the Third and Fourth Mizukage, and the contemporary strong shinobi led by Jiraiya, the battle seemed to be turning against the Ninja Alliance.
Sarutobi Hiruzen observed the situation with growing anxiety.
In contrast, Hayai Mu remained calm and asked, "What do you mean by saying that our timing is unfortunate?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen snapped back to attention, aware that he needed to resolve the situation swiftly. Gripping the Kongou Nyoi tightly, he said, "Hayai Gengetsu's ambition will only lead to the destruction of the entire shinobi world. As elders who once lived in this world, you should not be aiding him in his destructive path."
"Aiding him?" Hayai Mu shook his head. "If we don't help our own, should we then help outsiders?"
"As for destroying the shinobi world, it will only be rebuilt, allowing a new shinobi world to emerge—a world dominated by the Hayai clan!" Hayai Mu's eyes gleamed with a fierce light.
For someone who had dedicated his life to the Hayai clan, his greatest aspiration was to see the Hayai clan rise to the top of the shinobi world.
As for the lives of others...
They were of no concern to him.
Most of the reincarnated Hayai elders shared Hayai Mu's sentiment.
The remaining few were battle maniacs, driven by the thrill of combat rather than submission to Hayai Gengetsu's strength.
Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't be persuaded, he tightened his grip on the Kongou Nyoi and said with a solemn expression, "I'm afraid I must ask you to step aside, Elder Hayai."
Hayai Mu gestured dismissively and said, "Come, then. I've heard that you've joined a village called Konoha and even become its leader, the Hokage. Let me see if the strongest Kage of this era is truly worthy of the title."
As his words fell, two shockwaves reverberated through the air.
Sarutobi Hiruzen and Hayai Mu's battle had begun.
Not far away, Jiraiya, who had been observing the situation, seized the opportunity to strike at Hayai Li, sending him flying with a punch. However, Hayai Li quickly recovered and continued the fight, catching Jiraiya's fist in his hand.
Feeling the pressure from his opponent, Hayai Li asked between exchanges, "Your strength is remarkable. What's your name?"
Jiraiya nonchalantly introduced himself.
"And your surname?" Hayai Li probed further.
"Jiraiya is my full name," Jiraiya replied, looking at Hayai Li with confusion.
Hayai Li: "..."
He was a commoner?!
Before Hayai Li could process this surprise, further away, Hayai Mio, having been punched back by the Third Raikage, looked at him with a mix of surprise and delight.
"The Raikage of the Shinobi Village era, huh? Excellent!" Hayai Mio's face lit up with excitement as she engaged him once more.
In various parts of the Ninja Alliance's base camp, intense battles erupted.
Blood and fire blossomed amidst the chaos.
