Konoha: Unable to learn ninjutsu, they had to develop their own.

Chiba ignored him and looked at Kisame Hoshigaki.

Immediately afterwards, lightning flashed like a dragon.

Immortal mode.

open!

In the next instant, two lightning bolts slashed down like swords, their speed astonishing.

Obito immediately went into Hollowfication to evade.

Missing?

Kakashi's heart sank, but the next second, a tremendous force came from behind him.

Do not!

It's not that it's gone, but that the body has disappeared from this world.

Time and space ninjutsu!

His entire body erupted with chakra, lightning flashed, and streaks of electricity raged, forming a new defense along with his strong muscles and chakra.

Bang!

Kakashi blocked Obito's punch without getting hurt.

Obito's eyes narrowed.

Based on his understanding, Kakashi definitely didn't have that kind of chakra, and such a terrifying lightning release defensive technique could only be used by one person in the entire ninja world.

Lightning armor!

Has the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Leaf Village cooperated to this extent?

Outrageous!

What on earth is wrong with the ninja world?

Obito was in a state of confusion.

The moment of distraction—

laugh!

A sharp, subtle sound of something cutting through the air came from behind.

Obito immediately entered Hollowfication, but it was too late. He knew very well that Chiba also possessed the ability to manipulate space and time.

He may not be as good as his teacher, Minato Namikaze, but he is definitely not weak.

At least.

It's not impossible to strike yourself in a spacetime tunnel.

A weapon appeared in his hand.

when!

With a crisp sound, a fan appeared, deflecting Chiba's chakra "sword energy" away.

boom!

The building in the distance was instantly severed at waist by this attack and collapsed amidst a deafening roar.

Mei Terumi's beautiful eyes widened.

This……

A counter-strategy?

No, the key isn't the rebound, but Chiba.

It's too exaggerated!

It looked like an ordinary slash, but it possessed such terrifying power. No wonder the opponent dared not take it head-on; if they were hit by it, they would basically die.

The other Hidden Mist ninjas were speechless, their minds filled with only one thought—

So strong!

"Kisame."

Obito once again used his ability to evade the attacks of Chiba and Kakashi, and looked back at Kisame's location.

Subsequently.

Kisame Hoshigaki maintained hand seals and spewed out a massive wave of water that crashed down from the sky like a tidal wave, rushing outwards in all directions.

Kakashi formed hand seals, intending to use his own chakra to erect a massive earthen wall to divert the floodwaters—

With his current chakra, he could easily do it if he wasn't afraid of depleting it.

but.

He hesitated for a moment.

This is the Hidden Mist Village.

If I were to use that level of ninjutsu in Sage Mode, how long would it take to recover the chakra I lost?

With that moment of hesitation, the giant wave was already upon them.

Kakashi quickly completed the hand seals.

Then, a small but not too large earthen wall rose up, splitting the water flow to both sides.

Mei Terumi had already secretly approached Kisame and attacked him with Lava Release when Kisame unleashed the Great Explosion Water Wave, but a significant portion of her ninjutsu chakra was directly absorbed by Samehada.

Although it didn't devour everything, its power was greatly reduced.

The massive water blast transformed into a giant water ball, covering everything around it. The Hidden Mist ninja reacted quickly, and most of them withdrew.

Kakashi and Chiba were blocked by the flood and could not break in for a while. They could only watch as Obito and Kisame disappeared into the water.

"Pity."

Kakashi sighed softly.

This was a very good opportunity; his cooperation with Chiba almost caught the enemy off guard. He hadn't expected their methods to be so difficult to deal with, and...

Kisame has way too much chakra!

Such a large-scale water-style ninjutsu is truly astonishing. If I possessed this kind of chakra, I could maintain the Sharingan's durability even without the sealing of acupoints.

He couldn't help but feel a little envious.

"Ahem, Jonin Kakashi, Jonin Chiba, thank you for your help."

Mei Terumi quickly emerged from the lake.

The ninjutsu above is still in effect, but the one maintaining it has changed from Kisame to a shadow clone.

The real body has already escaped using space-time ninjutsu.

but.

This time, the fact that most of the people in Kirigakure were saved, and the Byakugan was also preserved, is already considered a very good result.

If it weren't for Chiba and Kakashi's intervention, Kirigakure's losses would have been even greater, and the other side didn't seem inclined to continue their entanglement with Chiba and Kakashi.

otherwise.

The losses suffered by Kirigakure are far more than these.

"No, we just did what allies should do. By the way, this is the head of your village's Jonin. It's a pity his body was taken away and can't be retrieved."

"..."

Mei Terumi looked at Ao and couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness in her heart.

Qing helped her a lot.

If it weren't for Ao, she would never have been able to obtain evidence of the Fourth Mizukage being manipulated, let alone become the Fifth Mizukage. But now, Ao is dead, with only his head remaining.

The most painful thing is...

The person who killed him did so to protect their Hidden Mist Village.

Kwon Bing-wei stood to the side, not daring to say a word.

The others remained silent, and many looked at Chiba and Kakashi with a hint of fear in their eyes.

Kakashi and Chiba are too strong!

Mei Terumi looked around and forced a smile: "Everyone, tidy up the village. I have some things to discuss with the two Jonin from Konoha."

"Yes!"

"Kwon Bing-wei, is the elder in the building?"

"Yes, Bi is ordered to protect him."

"it is good."

Mei Terumi nodded slightly, then led Chiba and Kakashi towards the Mizukage Building.

After walking for a while, she turned around and looked at Chiba.

"Chiba, thank you so much for your help. If it weren't for you, I might still be adrift at sea, completely unaware that Kirigakure had been invaded, and I wouldn't have been able to get back so quickly."

“They are our common enemy, so you don’t need to be too polite.”

After they reached the Land of Water via the Parasite Insects, Chiba released the Parasite Insects at the location Mei had indicated. After traveling for a while, the Parasite Insects quickly relayed the news of the attack on Kirigakure.

They raced along the coast and finally arrived at Kirigakure Village.

"In short, thank you very much. As a token of my gratitude, although I cannot provide more chakra iron, I can tell you where to find chakra iron."

Mei Terumi was really not happy.

Even with the help of Chiba and Kakashi, she returned to the village immediately, but many Kirigakure ninja still lost their lives in the first wave of attack.

Most of them died from Kisame's ninjutsu.

However, Kisame didn't specifically target the Hidden Mist ninjas; he just casually used a few ninjutsu...

The gap is too big.
