Chapter 648: Sorry, I'm an Undercover Agent
Chapter 648: Sorry, I'm an Undercover Agent
In a battle of confidence, the Stone Hidden Ninja Forces and the Leaf Hidden Ninja Forces clashed in a full-scale war on the border of the Land of Grass.
Both sides had their strategies, and there was no room for deception; it was a pure, unadulterated ninja force confrontation.
Hundreds of ninjas unleashed their skills, attacking each other with various means.
"Earth Style: Rock Iron Cannon Technique!"
Hundreds of Stone Village Ninjas stood in formation, spitting out rock cannonballs at the Leaf Ninja Forces.
"Fire Style: Inferno Technique!"
The Monkeyfly Clan's ninjas gathered, using their clan's secret technique to spew out intense, high-temperature flames.
"Toad Oil Bomb!"
Following Jiraiya's command, Gamabunta gathered his chakra, transforming it into toad oil, which he spat out alongside the Monkeyfly Clan's fire technique.
Whoosh!
Combined with the toad oil, the already fierce inferno flames intensified in temperature, becoming even more terrifying in their destructive power, even eroding and destroying the rock cannonballs.
"Explosion Style: Bursting Flying Rocks!"
Reishi quietly approached Gamabunta's side and fired an explosion-style cannonball at Jiraiya, who stood above Gamabunta.
However, Jiraiya had already noticed him and quickly blocked the attack with his ninjutsu.
Bang, bang!
A red figure with steam rising from its back ran rampant on the battlefield, leaving severely injured or dead Leaf Ninjas in its wake.
The surrounding Leaf Ninjas could only retreat swiftly, as this was a Jinchuuriki.
Yuyu Mumu didn't rush to take action. Instead, he activated his Byakugan and Transparent World, carefully examining the non-Leaf Village's powerful fighters.

It must be said that their stats were impressive, even the seemingly weakest, Luo Sha, had a stat panel that surpassed many powerful individuals Mumu had encountered.
The most formidable, the Third Raikage, possessed a perfect-level skill.
Mumu wasn't surprised by this; after all, these individuals were Kage, the true pinnacle of the ninja world.
For a Kage, genius was just the entry requirement; each had, at some point, dominated the ninja world.
"It's time to cast the hook."
Upon sensing that the Leaf Village's forces were at a disadvantage, Mumu quickly gathered a large amount of chakra and performed a Wood Style Technique.
On the surface, this was a war to break through the Fire Country's defense line, but in reality, Mumu was the core of this war.
Only after Mumu made his move would the real war begin.
"Wood Style: Birth of Forest!"
Boom, boom!
As Mumu completed his ninjutsu, the earth began to tremble, and countless branches and trees shot up from the ground.
With the earth's roar, the trees grew rapidly, tearing up the once flat battlefield, causing boulders to roll, and creating deep ravines. Everything was reshaped by this irresistible force.
They rose at an astonishing speed, their trunks so thick that it would take several people to encircle them. The lush foliage blocked out the sun, instantly creating a dense and thriving forest.
"This is the Wood Style Technique!" Jiraiya exclaimed, his face showing a hint of surprise as he witnessed the sudden transformation of the battlefield.
This was the first time he had seen the Wood Style Technique with his own eyes. Before this, he only knew that Mumu had mastered Wood Style, but he had never witnessed Mumu using it.
Jiraiya had to admit that the Wood Style techniques were indeed impressive.
In the blink of an eye, massive trees that would take decades to grow sprang from the ground.
Slap! Slap!
Under Yu Sheng Mu Yue's control, the trees waved their branches, striking the Stone Hidden Ninjas while defending the Leaf Ninjas from their attacks.
With an entire forest as an ally, the battlefield situation changed instantly.
"It's Lord Mu Yue's Wood Style!" The Leaf Ninjas, who were being assisted, were both excited and thrilled.
For the Leaf Ninjas, there was no more reassuring technique than Wood Style.
Only those who had fought alongside Mu Yue against the Mist Hidden Village or Uchiha Sasuke could remain calm.
Because they had witnessed even more powerful Wood Style techniques; although Birth of Forest was impressive, it was still far less powerful than the Flower Birth of Forest and Wooden Man Technique.
In contrast to the excited Leaf Ninjas, the Stone Hidden Ninjas, instead of running away in fear, were suddenly under immense pressure.
The Five-Tails Jinchuriki, Han, glared at Mu Yue with heightened vigilance.
If not for his concern about Mu Yue's Wood Style, he would have unleashed the Tailed Beast's chakra and dealt a severe blow to the Leaf Ninja Forces.
"Wood Style techniques are truly formidable," Deidara took the opportunity to capture several Stone Hidden Ninjas, and couldn't help but exclaim.
The Rinnegan was also powerful, but it couldn't be used frequently, or else his eyes would go blind, which was very frustrating.
"Flash!"
Kakashi tightly gripped Yama Yo and performed a swift sword draw, instantly killing a Stone Hidden Jonin. He then cautiously surveyed his surroundings, with no intention of unleashing his chakra to massacre the enemy.
The Stone Hidden Ninjas knew that Mu Yue possessed Wood Style and still dared to attack, so they must have a backup plan. It was safer to conserve their chakra.
"Earth Style: Mountain Soil Technique!"
Huang Tu unleashed a massive amount of pre-gathered chakra, slamming his hands onto the ground.
A loud rumble reverberated, and the ground beneath Mu Yue suddenly shook violently.
With Mu Yue at the center, the ground on both sides split open rapidly, and two enormous rocks, several dozen meters in size, rushed towards Mu Yue.
Crack! Crack!
Mu Yue controlled the trees to block, but the rocks were too massive, instantly destroying the trees in their path.
Huang Tu's eyes fixed on Mu Yue, breathing heavily. This was his most proficient and powerful Earth Style technique, requiring an enormous amount of chakra to both execute and maintain.
Whoosh!
Mu Yue immediately activated the Lightning God Technique, appearing next to a Flying Thunder God Kunai he had thrown earlier.
He had the ability to defend head-on, but doing so would consume more chakra than using the Lightning God Technique.
"What a troublesome technique," Huang Tu sighed.
The Mountain Soil Technique was virtually useless against the agile Flying Thunder God Technique.
However, Huang Tu's expression remained unchanged, as this was still within their plan.
"Dust Style: World Separation Technique!"
Dainoki, who had arrived above the battlefield at some point, rapidly descended and fired a transparent cylindrical object at Mu Yue.
He had been at the scene since the start of the battle but remained hidden in the sky without intervening.
He had been waiting for Huang Tu to use a large-scale Earth Style technique to force Mu Yue out of hiding.
Whoosh!
Before Dainoki's Dust Style could hit Mu Yue, Mu Yue disappeared within the range of the technique using the Instant Body Switch Technique.
How could he not be prepared for Dainoki's attack after identifying his abilities? The destructive power of Dust Style was terrifying, and even with the full use of the Armored Color, Mu Yue wasn't sure he could withstand it completely.
Boom!
A violent explosion erupted, and everything within the range of the Dust Style, whether the sturdy trees created by Wood Style or the rocks formed by Earth Style, was instantly reduced to ashes.
"What a terrifying reaction speed," Dainoki thought, assuming Mu Yue had instantly sensed the attack and dodged it.
"Earth Shadow!" The Stone Hidden Ninjas, upon witnessing the unique Dust Style, showed expressions of surprise and delight.
Only the upper echelon of the Stone Hidden Ninja Forces knew about the plan to surround and kill Mu Yue; they were aware of the reinforcements but never expected it to be their revered Third Earth Shadow.
The morale and confidence of the Stone Hidden Ninja Forces soared instantly.
Apart from being the Earth Shadow, Dainoki was undeniably the strongest in the Stone Hidden Village, the undisputed mightiest.
Many Stone Hidden Ninjas believed Dainoki to be the strongest ninja in the current era.
With the strongest ninja as their ally, how could they not feel joy and confidence?
"If I had come alone, it would have been challenging to defeat him," Dainoki quickly gathered his chakra in preparation for his next move.
Dust Style had unparalleled destructive power, but its casting time was a weakness. It was manageable against ordinary ninjas, but against a ninja who mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, they might not even touch the hem of his clothes.
Sizzle! Sizzle!
A thunderous noise echoed, and suddenly, a tall and muscular Cloud Hidden Ninja appeared, moving as swiftly as lightning towards Mu Yue.
"For the glory of the Cloud Village, die!" The Third Raikage swung his hand blade, enveloped in a dazzling blue lightning, at Yu Sheng Mu Yue without hesitation.
In his pursuit of speed, he refrained from using his signature Hell Spear, the so-called strongest spear, aiming to catch Mu Yue off guard.
Of course, this hand blade was infused with his Lightning Nature Transformation, pushing it to the limit. Even if it wasn't as powerful as the Hell Spear, it was still a highly lethal Lightning Style Body Technique.
Mu Yue's expression remained unchanged as he countered with his own hand blade.
At this moment, his breathing was intensely focused, maximizing the enhancement of his Stone Breath for both power and defense.
Simultaneously, with the blessing of the Transparent World, all his strength surged into the palm he swung.
Finally, Mu Yue transformed his chakra into the Armored Color, covering his palm with the pitch-black hue.
Boom!!
The collision of the blue and black hand blades unleashed a terrifying impact, causing the ground beneath them to shatter and explode under the immense force.
The resulting shockwave destroyed the surrounding trees, and nearby ninjas who failed to stabilize themselves with chakra were blown away by the aftermath.
"Third Raikage!"
The Stone Hidden and Leaf Village ninjas were stunned. How did a Kage from the Cloud Village suddenly appear in the middle of their battle?
Unaware of their respective village's plans, the ninjas from the Stone and Leaf Villages subconsciously restrained themselves, not wanting to give the other villages an advantage.
"Hmm?" The Third Raikage's expression turned to one of utter astonishment.
He was even more surprised than when he had witnessed Mu Yue's Wood Style: Birth of Forest.
A ninja had actually blocked his Lightning Style Body Technique head-on, and it was a young ninja renowned for his ninjutsu.
If he didn't consciously believe that no one in the current ninja world could cast an illusion on him, the Third Raikage would have thought he was hallucinating.
This hand blade strike, even if his son were to intercept it with his full Lightning Nature Transformation, would have resulted in injuries. Yet, Mu Yue remained unharmed.
"We must not let him continue to grow stronger!" This thought flashed through the minds of both the Third Raikage and Daigo.
They didn't know how Mu Yue had managed it, but one thing was clear: Mu Yue was stronger than they had anticipated.
This was no longer a potential second God of Shinobi; he was destined to become the next God of Shinobi without a doubt.
"Magnet Style: Sand Gold!"
Seizing the opportunity, Luo Sha unleashed a large amount of chakra, instantly creating a vast expanse of Sand Gold that surged towards Mu Yue like a tidal wave.
If Mu Yue were to revoke his strength and use the Lightning God Technique now, he would undoubtedly face the Third Raikage's attack.
Conversely, he would be controlled by the Sand Gold and then forced to endure Daigo's Dust Style and the Third Mizukage's Water Style.
Regardless, it would be difficult for Mu Yue to escape unscathed, at least in Luo Sha's opinion.
"Fourth Kazekage!"
Luo Sha's sudden appearance and attack further intensified the eerie war atmosphere on the battlefield.
This was already the third Kage to show up.
Kages rarely appeared on the battlefield since they were invaluable to their villages, serving not only as powerful leaders but also as the highest decision-makers. Their unexpected presence could have severe consequences.
Even ordinary ninjas could sense that something was amiss with this battle.
"The Sand Hidden Village, which hasn't declared war on the Leaf Village, has appeared on the battlefield and is attacking Teacher Mu Yue. Could it be that..." Kakashi, who had been observing Mu Yue, wore a grave expression.
His quick-thinking mind instantly connected the dots, leading to a terrifying conclusion.
To eliminate Mu Yue, a Wood Style ninja with limitless potential, the four great ninja villages had set aside their differences and united in hatred.
If things proceeded as expected, the Third Mizukage would also make an appearance soon.
Kakashi didn't panic; he and the other disciples had a tacit understanding, ensuring they stayed close to Mu Yue.
This was to guarantee their ability to support Mu Yue at a moment's notice.
"No matter who you Kages are, if you dare harm Teacher Mu Yue, be prepared to face the consequences!"
Deidara's kaleidoscope Mangekyo Sharingan fixed intently on Daigo in the sky, rapidly gathering chakra in his eyes.
Should Daigo dare to use his Dust Style, Deidara would activate the Divine Might, tearing apart half of Daigo's body.
Zhi Shui also gathered chakra in his Sharingan, ready to approach Mu Yue at any moment to provide support with his Mangekyo Sharingan.
The Divine Might was a precious ability that, once used, might not be available for a long time. But with Mu Yue's safety at stake, it was worth the risk, even if it didn't trigger in the end.
"Water Style: Circular Mirror Technique!"
At this critical juncture, the Third Mizukage appeared, just as Kakashi had anticipated, and performed an unexpected defensive ninjutsu.
