I will traverse countless worlds and become a god entirely on my own!

"Lu Jiu, don't worry about the enemy's fighting strength. Just make sure we minimize casualties!"

"it is good."

It seems this person is even stronger than before.

Shikaku knew very well that Byakuya wasn't the type to boast. Since Byakuya had said that, it was certain that Byakuya was confident.

"Lord Hokage, a group of Grass Ninja has been spotted ahead, numbering approximately fifteen!"

Grass Ninja?

What are they doing crossing over to the Land of Fire?

Taking out a map, Bai Ye glanced at their respective locations and immediately realized that they were taking a shortcut to the border between the Land of Waterfalls and the Land of Snow, so they were going around the border of the Land of Fire.

"Kill them!"

"Yes!"

If we happen to encounter them, then of course we'll just kill them.

This is someone we'll meet on the battlefield later.

If they've run into them, then they're just unlucky.

Screams came from not far away, followed by some crying. Bai Ye ignored them and continued on his way to the front line.

"Lord Hokage, we have captured two Uzumaki clan members who claim to be from the Land of Whirlpools."

"The Uzumaki clan?"

Bai Ye turned his head curiously to look at the two red-haired women in front of him, one a slightly older, more mature woman, and the other a little girl wearing glasses. Were these two Karin Uzumaki and her mother?

The Land of Grass.

It seems like everything is in sync.

It's really pitiful that they were taken to the battlefield for recovery.

Following her gaze, the two people in front of her seemed to be in a hurry, and Karin also hid behind her mother in fear, not daring to look at Byakuya.

She had just thought she was going to die, but these Konoha ninjas were quick and efficient. In her eyes, the brutal and powerful Grass Ninjas couldn't even withstand a single move before being killed.

Just as she was about to be killed by the Konoha ninja, her mother suddenly showed courage, revealing their background and experiences, and begging the Konoha ninja to spare her daughter, which made the ninja hesitate.

The Uzumaki clan has always been an ally of Konoha, but they were also wiped out back then. Now they don't know what to do, so they brought them here to find Byakuya.

"Since they are from the Uzumaki clan, then take them back to Konoha."

The Vortex Clan is truly rare in this world. Since we've encountered them, we might as well take them back with us.

"Yes!"

Have they been saved?

Karin glanced at Byakuya with some curiosity, then looked at the ninja who had led them away.

Judging from what the other party said before, it seems that the Uzumaki clan will not be treated like the Grass Ninja in Konoha; they are just mobile blood donation packs there.

[Ding! Changing Karin's fate has earned you a chance to win a prize.]

Sorry, Snake, I've snatched it from you again.

Use a lottery.

Bai Ye muttered to himself.

[Ding! Successfully used the lottery draw. Congratulations on obtaining: Ashura Chakra!]

Ashura Chakra!?

Previously, Byakuya possessed Indra's chakra.

Now that he has both types of chakra, a Sage Body, and Sage Eyes, wouldn't he be able to awaken the Rinnegan?

But it seems that the Rinnegan requires a great deal of emotional stimulation, right?

When the Sage of Six Paths saw his brother die, he immediately awakened the Rinnegan. Madara also awakened the Rinnegan when he was about to die. At that time, Madara was probably filled with despair and resentment. The intense emotional stimulation caused Madara to awaken the Rinnegan.

What kind of excitement do I need?

"What's wrong with the Hokage?"

"It's alright, let's keep going!"

Bai Ye snapped out of his daze, waved his hand, and didn't care about the matter. He was just a little disappointed that he hadn't activated the Rinnegan on this battlefield.

However, the Rinnegan is not needed to deal with these guys at all.

He was quite curious whether Nagato would break down when he saw his Rinnegan after he awakened it, since Nagato had always believed himself to be a god, the chosen one to save the world.

On the battlefield, the main combat forces of all sides continued to converge.

Jiraiya and the others had already arrived at the battlefield in Iwagakure, and when Byakuya arrived, Jiraiya's furrowed brows relaxed a bit.

Although I didn't quite agree with Byakuya's ideals before, Konoha is now facing a life-or-death crisis, and if we win this time, we can definitely achieve what Byakuya said.

So Jiraiya was very concerned, but after thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't figure out how to win.

"Lord Hokage, you've arrived."

Everyone made way, and Bai Ye took the main seat and looked at everyone, saying, "Everyone, I won't say much more. Let's have all the Iwa ninja, Kumogakure ninja, and all the other miscellaneous ninja come over for a decisive battle!"

"."

Are you really that reckless?

Before going to war, don't you always have to test the waters first?

Perhaps the other side is also thinking that there's no point in wasting time with so many of our ninjas, so we should just go for it. They haven't considered testing us yet.

"you sure?"

Jiraiya swallowed hard; he had a feeling that Byakuya seemed to have underestimated him.

"Of course!"

"Then let's just declare war."

Hiashi Hyuga couldn't wait any longer; he wanted to avenge his brother's death at the hands of the Cloud Ninja. It was time to settle the score.

The temporary ninja alliance headquarters across the street.

After a period of bickering, Onoki and A calmed down. Although they still had conflicts, they were now clear that the most important enemy they needed to face was Konoha.

"Report! The enemy has sent a challenge, saying they'll start the decisive battle today, a full-scale attack!"

"."

Who has the advantage?

After hearing this, Ai and Onoki were at a loss for words.

Should they say Bai Ye is arrogant, or something else?

Why would Bai Ye, who is at a disadvantage, be more anxious than they, who are at an advantage?

"Is there any conspiracy?"

Onoki rubbed his temples, not in a hurry to make a decision immediately.

"Are you scared, you old codger?"

Compared to Onoki, Ai admired Byakuya's courage. He didn't want to test him wave after wave, but rather wanted to tell Byakuya that everyone should set up their formations and have a decisive battle, where it would be a contest of raw strength.

"Hehe, I'm just afraid you'll get tricked and killed."

A cold smile flashed across Onoki's face, and Ai's reminder instantly enraged Ai.

Wasn't his statement a veiled reference to the death of the Third Raikage?

"Ahem, if you all want to be defeated by Konoha, then let's start the war now."

Huang Tu coughed lightly and quickly tried to smooth things over.

"Calm down, our main enemy is Konoha!"

Samui also offered a reminder.

Just moments ago, as the two sides stood in a stalemate, the other ninja from the smaller villages sat on the sidelines, too afraid to utter a sound, lest a fight break out.

They came together to fight Konoha, how can they turn against each other like this?

Where is the location for the challenge?

"Samui asked."

"On a large plain about a kilometer ahead."

"."

Can you ambush someone on the Great Plains?

Obviously it is impossible.

This made Samui doubt whether the other side really wanted a decisive battle.

"What kind of brains could the Uchiha have? Aren't they just a bunch of brutes? Choosing a decisive battle is very much in line with their style. They were able to directly rebel and eliminate the Hokage's clan, and then kill the Daimyo. They seem to have no strategy at all!"

Black Soil thought they were all too cowardly.

In her view, everything the Uchiha clan had done before was mindless.

Otherwise, Konoha wouldn't have been besieged by the entire ninja world at this time. If the Mistkage hadn't joined Konoha, Konoha would probably have been attacked from both sides.

"Then let's have a decisive battle! I'll see what that brat is really up to!"

Ōnoki pondered for a while and realized that it made sense; if it were him, he certainly wouldn't have chosen to ambush on the plains.

Moreover, since they said it was a decisive battle, it was impossible for the enemy to ambush us if we brought so many ninjas with us.

So, after a discussion, they decided to go and see what was going on. If it really was a decisive battle, then they shouldn't delay and should settle the matter once and for all!

On the Great Plains.

As Onoki watched from afar, he saw the leader of the Konoha group wearing armor, with a spiky hairstyle and long hair fluttering in the wind. At that moment, he felt as if he were seeing an old friend he had met in his youth.

A bad memory suddenly flashed into Onoki's mind!
