Chapter 124 The Power of Ice Release, Kaguya Clan Joins the Battle (Please Subscribe and Vote)

Yagura can be said to be the most tragic Mizukage, or even the most tragic Kage, even more tragic than the Third Kazekage whose corpse was turned into a puppet.

As the Jinchūriki of the Three-Tails, he was actually controlled by someone using genjutsu.

Although the Fourth Mizukage was not a perfect Jinchūriki, he was still able to forcibly use the power of the Tailed Beasts, similar to Naruto's initial Nine-Tails Chakra Mode.

Such a person is indeed not weak.

At least Kushina Uzumaki could suppress the Nine-Tails, but she couldn't utilize its power.

Okay, the Three-Tails and the Complete Nine-Tails are not comparable at all.

“Controlling a Jinchuriki with a Tailed Beast using genjutsu is no easy task, even for an imperfect Jinchuriki.”

"The genjutsu abilities of the Mangekyou Sharingan are extraordinary, even if the eye techniques are not genjutsu."

Genichi thought to himself, "My current illusion abilities aren't enough to do that."

"However, my illusion abilities are mainly offensive rather than manipulative, so it can't be said that they are necessarily weaker than the Kaleidoscope."

The abilities of the Sharingan, especially the Mangekyou Sharingan, are not limited to genjutsu.

It seems meaningless to compare people in isolation.

Suppressing his thoughts, Genichi first created a clone to stand guard outside and periodically monitor the situation, while he himself entered Jiraiya's tent.

He sat cross-legged under the tree, his hands clasped together, his eyes lowered.

Within his body, a large amount of chakra was extracted and then subjected to ice-style nature transformation to form entirely new ice-style chakra.

This immense chakra, under Genichi's control, enveloped every cell in his body.

His entire body was enveloped in an icy blue chakra glow.

At this moment, Genichi Shushita could clearly feel that every cell in his body seemed to be cheering and actively adapting to the new power of Ice Release and drawing energy from it.

As cells grow, genes change subtly.

Information related to Ice Release is integrated into the genetic code.

Although Genichi Kishita did not feel a significant improvement in his physical abilities from these changes, his intuition told him that these changes were just beginning.

Mastering Ice Release might not directly raise his chakra limit by a level, but the genetic changes and the integration of new power will definitely alter his physique and... enhance his potential!
Based on the current changes, Genichi Kinoshita, with his own knowledge, can ensure that this deduction is correct.

"In other words, while mastering Ice Release won't immediately increase my physical strength and chakra limits, I can still improve them as I tap into my potential."

"Especially since I happen to be in the growth period of my body, the potential for improvement is probably beyond imagination."

Genichi silently felt a sense of immense pleasure that permeated both his body and soul.

Outside the tent, Uzumaki Ina suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the tent with some confusion: "Why does it feel like Lord Genichi's chakra has changed? It feels cold."

Time passed slowly, darkness gradually swallowed the light, and night fell.

But the battle between Konoha and Kirigakure continues.

The civilians in the town had already gone into hiding, and the ninjas were fighting each other in the darkness.

In the forest, flames would occasionally shoot into the sky, briefly illuminating the darkness, accompanied by a terrifying roar.

It could be ninjutsu or a trap being triggered.

The Hidden Mist Village's offensive was extremely fierce.

Especially the ninjas of the Kaguya clan, who charged at the forefront, reveling in the thrill of war and slaughter.

It was as if only fighting could prove they were still alive.

Or perhaps fighting is the very meaning of their lives.

The rising flames illuminated a series of frenzied faces.

……

In the forest, somewhere on the battlefield.

With his three-tomoe Sharingan activated, Uchiha Tekka danced in the darkness, wielding his ninja sword, displaying his superb artistry to his enemies and reaping one life after another.

"Watch out, this guy is an Uchiha, we have to attack him from behind!"

"He has three tomoe, so it will take at least three people to take him down!"

The ninja shouted, reminding his companions.
"Sharingan? Heh, that should be a very nice collectible!"

Having just finished off an enemy, Kaguya Iwa-kun flicked the blood off her bone sword and charged toward Uchiha Tetsuka.

At the same time, two Mist Ninjas rushed towards him from the left and right sides.

One against three!

Uchiha Tetsuka showed no sign of backing down; his crimson eyes were filled only with fighting spirit.

He bit his ninja sword, and with both hands he took out shuriken from his ninja tool pouch, quickly sending them flying, unknowingly weaving a net.

With a leaping and bounding motion, he tightened the steel wire, binding the enemy on the left.

With a three-and-a-half-turn sideways movement in mid-air, Uchiha Tekka dodged the enemy's attack and raised one hand.

Rumble, rumble!

Flames shot into the sky, and a Mist Ninja was blown to pieces.

Amidst billowing dust, Uchiha Tetsuka landed, only to be caught in a pincer attack by two Mist Ninja.

Ding Ding Ding ~
Mars is everywhere.

Ninja swords clashed with each other, and ninja swords collided with bone swords at high speed, leaving behind a trail of afterimages.

Uchiha Tetsuka suddenly activated a genjutsu, freezing a Kirigakure ninja in place.

"Die!"

Kaguya Iwa-kun laughed maniacally, his center gate wide open, and attacked Uchiha Tetsuka recklessly, as if he wanted to perish together with him.

Uchiha Tetsuka revealed a mocking expression, dodged the attack, and slashed horizontally at Kaguya Iwa-kun's chest.

This strike will surely severely injure Kaguya Iwa-kun.

However, Kaguya Iwa-kun's smile became increasingly ferocious and terrifying.

block!
Two bone spikes pierced through Kaguya Iwa's clothes on his chest, blocking Uchiha Tekka's ninja sword.

Uchiha Tetsuka's pupils contracted sharply, and he immediately retreated.

scoff!

The crossed bone blades sliced ​​through Uchiha Tekka's clothes between his chest and abdomen, and blood flowed out.

"This guy can even grow bone spurs on his chest!"

Uchiha Tetsuka glanced down at the wound on his chest and abdomen. Thankfully, it was just a superficial wound; he hadn't been disemboweled.

On the other side, Kaguya Iwa-kun stuck out her tongue and licked the blood off the bone spikes before charging forward again, refusing to help her companion break the illusion.

On a battlefield further away, a Hyuga clan ninja was also facing an attack from two enemies.

And there are many, many more battles like this.

In just one hour, Konoha's two lines of defense collapsed, and the surviving Konoha ninjas quickly retreated to reinforce the rear lines of defense.

Meanwhile, a steady stream of wounded soldiers were being transported from the front lines to the rear and then into the medical corps' camps.

Although some ninja squads have medical ninjas, they are very few and can only provide battlefield first aid.

Minor injuries are manageable, but seriously wounded soldiers must be sent to the medical team's camp to receive effective treatment.

……

Konohagakure Village, Hokage Building.

Although it was late at night, the lights were still on.

Hiruzen Sarutobi smoked a cigarette while looking at the intelligence reports that had just been sent back from the battlefield.

The first three lines of defense have been breached.

Although the large-scale battles have ceased, the intelligence teams of Kirigakure have resumed their activities, continuously probing the weaknesses in Konoha's rear defenses and harassing Konoha ninjas.

In addition to battle intelligence, there was also Jiraiya's plea for help.

We must send more troops.

The battlefield was too large to completely block the Mist Ninja.

Hiruzen Sarutobi exhaled a puff of smoke, put down the intelligence report, and fell into deep thought.

Now, Konoha is not only at war with Kirigakure, but its battles with Kumogakure are also becoming increasingly fierce, and war is only a matter of time.

There was also information that Danzo had sent back from the Land of Rain.

Iwagakure's attack on Sunagakure was remarkably successful. Rasa led his men to break through the blockade and leave the Land of Rain. Now, Iwagakure's power in the Land of Rain is extremely strong.

Most importantly, Iwagakure did not dedicate this force to the war in the Land of Wind.

Are they going to attack Amegakure?
Hiruzen Sarutobi wouldn't be so naive.

Iwagakure has now begun to exterminate ninjas from other factions within the Land of Rain.

Danzo asserted that Iwagakure's attack on Konoha was imminent.

Hiruzen Sarutobi trusted Danzo's judgment and also his own intuition.

Therefore, he must establish a border defense force on the western border of the Land of Fire to guard against Iwagakure.

We also need to take Kumogakure (Hidden Cloud Village) into consideration.

We must also reserve mobility.

"Ugh……"

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed, then had to make a difficult decision.

That is to send Sarutobi Asuma and his group of Chunin and Genin to the battlefield to build a deep defense in the eastern part of the Land of Fire.

However, they alone are not enough.

These seedlings that have not yet grown cannot be sent to the front lines.

Hiruzen Sarutobi summoned an Anbu ninja and ordered, "Go and fetch Fugaku Uchiha!"

He plans to withdraw a group of Uchiha clan ninjas to reinforce the Kirigakure battlefield.

After making the decision, while waiting for Fugaku Uchiha, Hiruzen Sarutobi began to finalize the list of reinforcements.

Sarutobi Asuma's squad.

Medical Ninja Mute.

Might Guy Squad.

……

"Captain, I want to go help out at the medical team."

Uzumaki Ina was asking about the shadow clone that Kinoshita Genichi had left outside.

The shadow clone thought for a moment, then nodded: "Go!"

Wearing a mask, Uzumaki Ina immediately smiled: "Yes!"

She leaped away, and Moonlight Flowing Wind, who had already rested, couldn't help but ask, "Captain, are we just going to wait like this?"

The shadow clone nodded: "Everyone has a different role, Liufeng, don't rush."

"Of course, if you had as much chakra as Ina, I would be willing to take you to the front lines first."

Moonlight and Flowing Wind nodded helplessly.

The three Kage of Sarutobi then asked, "Captain, what if the Mist Ninja don't break through the defenses?"

The shadow clone smiled and said, "That's for the best."

"Lord Jiraiya will give the order then."

"Your most important task right now is to conserve your energy and be ready for battle at any time."

Sarutobi Sankage nodded, his heart settling down.

Akimichi Tou remained silent, as steady and composed as a mountain, just like his physique.

Silent all night.

As dawn broke, Xuan Yi finished his unusual training under the tree inside the tent.

After taking out a soldier's ration pill and eating it, and drinking some water, Genichi Shushita got up and went outside.

After retracting his shadow clone, Genichi turned to look at Uzumaki Ina, who was sleeping against a tree.

I know she was busy at the medical team all night and only came back to rest half an hour ago.

Yin seal, untie it!
Genichi under the tree released the Yin Seal, and a massive amount of chakra surged out before he formed hand seals.

Bang bang bang!
Three shadow clones appeared, then vanished using a teleportation technique, heading straight for the front lines.

He was also very annoyed just sitting there waiting!
He needs to re-accumulate the Yin Release chakra he sealed.
