Konoha's Hextech Ninja

Hiruzen Sarutobi's gaze swept across the edge of the battlefield, where several Cloud Ninja wielding special ninja tools stood. He said, "And those Six Paths Treasures are also a problem. We can't say anything during the battle..."

"I will try to seal the Fourth Raikage as well, and if I fail..."

Minato Namikaze bit his finger, forming a hand seal: "Summoning Jutsu!"

As the smoke cleared, several enormous toads, each tens of meters tall, appeared in the open space.

"Bunta, please, help me buy some time for the Third Hokage!" Minato Namikaze shouted.

"Honestly, it's always this kind of troublesome opponent!" Gamabunta complained, but he had already drawn his 'dagger' and said in a deep voice, "Ken, Hiro, it's time to fight together!"

"Oh~!" Gamahiro drew his twin swords from behind his back and assumed a starting stance.

Hama Ken also picked up the steel fork and shield, and said in a loud voice, "Although I'm clumsy, I'll try my best!"

"A mere spirit beast!"

The Fourth Raikage roared, his body crackling with electricity, and charged toward the three toads.

The two-tailed and eight-tailed beasts, now fully transformed into their tailed forms, also pounced.

Throwing a Tailed Beast Ball from a distance is indeed very powerful, but continuously using Tailed Beast Balls also puts a great strain on the Tailed Beast.

Normal combat relies more on melee fighting due to their massive size, interspersed with a small number of special ninjutsu unique to tailed beasts, which is more effective.

Three toads, two tailed beasts, and the Fourth Raikage were locked in a chaotic battle.

While forming hand seals, Minato Namikaze quickly said, "My summoned toads from Mount Myōboku can fight for at least an hour. If the seal fails, I'll have to trouble you two elders to fight alongside the toads and hold off the enemy for enough time."

Mitokado Yan and Utahara Koharu arrived breathlessly next to Sarutobi Hitsuji and Namikaze Minato.

They already knew what the two men were planning to do.

They wanted to stop it, but couldn't bring themselves to say it.

In the current situation, someone must sacrifice their life to stop the Cloud Ninja's offensive.

Otherwise, the few remaining members of their clan would be wiped out by the Cloud Ninja's pursuit.

This is something they absolutely do not want to see.

"I'll buy you some time." Mitokado Homura's hand, holding the kunai, trembled slightly from exhaustion, but his tone was very firm.

He was prepared to die on the battlefield for the sake of his people.

After a moment of silence, Xiaochun said, "I have nothing to be reluctant to leave this old woman behind, so I'll just keep you company for a while."

As she spoke, she placed her hands on the backs of Hiruzen Sarutobi and Minato Namikaze respectively, transferring her chakra to the two of them.

Hiruzen Sarutobi and Minato Namikaze remained silent and simultaneously formed hand seals.

However, the difference is that Minato Namikaze formed the Reaper Death Seal seal, while Hiruzen Sarutobi divided his remaining chakra into five parts, creating four clones.

The Corpse Demon Sealing Technique, a forbidden art that trades lives for lives, works by summoning the Grim Reaper.

Since there is only one Grim Reaper, they cannot all use the Corpse Sealing Technique at the same time; they can only do it one at a time.

The risk here is that once the Hidden Cloud Village figured out the principle of the Corpse Demon Sealing Technique, the second person to use it would have a good chance of failing.

Therefore, the first one to be sealed must be the most threatening Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, which can only be done by Minato Namikaze.

"The Corpse Demons are sealed away!"

Minato Namikaze completed the hand seals, and a ghostly figure of a Shinigami appeared behind him, visible only to him.

"Is this the Grim Reaper?"

Minato Namikaze was so startled by the aura of death that he broke out in a cold sweat, but his movements did not falter in the slightest.

Through the previous battle, the Flying Thunder God mark left on the Eight-Tails was instantly transferred to the Eight-Tails.

The Reaper Death Seal was activated, and the Grim Reaper's arm passed through Minato Namikaze's body, grabbing the massive Eight-Tails.

"What...what is this thing?!"

The Eight-Tails was seized by the Grim Reaper, and its chakra instantly froze, making it impossible to mobilize even a fraction of its power.

The chakra connection also allowed it to see the ghostly figure of the Grim Reaper floating behind Minato Namikaze.

The overwhelming sense of oppression and gloom made the Eight-Tails feel as if it had encountered its natural enemy.

At the same time, a feeling seemed to come from the depths of its soul, telling the Eight-Tails that it had dealt with this strange being long ago, even before it was born.

How did you interact with them before they were born?

A question popped into the Eight-Tails' mind, but before it could think about it, the Shinigami forcefully pulled it out of Killer Bee's body and sealed it away.

After successfully sealing the Eight-Tails, Namikaze Minato stumbled.

"The burden is much greater than I imagined..."

Minato Namikaze casually stabbed Killer Bee in the heart with a kunai and shoved it in, taking Killer Bee's life.

He was about to activate the Flying Thunder God Technique again to try and seal the next enemy.

Not far away, the Fourth Raikage, witnessing this scene, was furious. A terrifying burst of chakra erupted from his body, sending Gamaken flying with a single strike. He then charged towards Minato Namikaze with lightning speed, roaring, "Die! Lightning Plow Blade!"

Minato Namikaze was about to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to dodge when he suddenly lost focus and slowed down a beat. The Fourth Raikage smashed him on the neck, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Knowing he was doomed, he stopped dodging and instead reached out, ignoring the electric shocks from the Fourth Raikage's lightning chakra, and forcefully grabbed the Fourth Raikage's body.

"Let's die together!"

Minato Namikaze roared inwardly as he activated the Corpse Demon Seal.

Death reached out again, piercing through Minato Namikaze's body and seizing the Fourth Raikage's soul.

Minato Namikaze's movements were incredibly clean and efficient. He directly activated the Reaper Death Seal, dragging the Fourth Raikage's soul into the seal within his own body.

With a swift stroke of the Grim Reaper's dagger, Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Raikage, and the Eight-Tails were all swallowed by the Grim Reaper.

Even after losing his soul, Minato Namikaze, clinging to his last breath, instructed Gamabunta, who had rushed to his side, "Gamabunta, help the Third Hokage and the others hold off the enemy. We absolutely cannot let them catch up with the main force..."

After saying those words, Minato Namikaze's body quickly lost its life force.

"Minato, Minato!" Gamabunta roared in despair.

On the other side, Hiruzen Sarutobi, while grieving at the sacrifice of Minato Namikaze, did not forget his mission.

He formed the seal for the Reaper Death Seal and summoned the Shinigami who had just returned to the Underworld again, charging towards the Two-Tails Jinchuriki and the Cloud Ninja wielding the Six Paths Treasures.

……

The Land of Earth.

In a secluded valley.

Yagami Yoruichi grabbed the unconscious Roshi, sealed him with a seal, and tossed him to a ninja from the sensory squad.

Behind Yagami Yoruichi, another sensory team was carrying the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, 'Han,' who was also unconscious and had his chakra sealed.

"nailed it."

Yagami Yoruichi said to Uchiha Fugaku, "The plan has changed. You don't need to take action directly, just cover for me. If anyone tries to escape, please intercept them."

"I understand, Yoruichi-sama," Uchiha Fugaku said respectfully.

He had already witnessed Yagami Yoruichi's skills during the coup a few years ago.

However, the ease with which Yagami Yoruichi effortlessly captured two perfect Jinchuriki on the previous two occasions made Uchiha Fugaku once again raise his evaluation of Yagami Yoruichi's strength.

If we say that Yagami Yoruichi's strength during the coup a few years ago was still within the range that Uchiha Fugaku could understand, then...

Yoruichi Yagami's strength has now reached a level that Fugaku Uchiha cannot fathom.

Fugaku Uchiha was relieved that since Sakumo Hatake and Yoruichi Yagami took over, the Uchiha clan members had been able to get better treatment and had given up any unwarranted thoughts.

Otherwise, with a powerful figure like Yoruichi Yagami around, he dared not even imagine what the fate would be if the Uchiha clan's Hawk faction continued to rebel.

The information brought by the visitors from another world that the Uchiha clan will be wiped out in the future may actually become a reality!

Now it's all good. We just need to stand firmly on Yoruichi Yagami's side and there's nothing to worry about.

Given the scale and potential demonstrated by Yagami Yoruichi, the Uchiha clan will not lack opportunities for development.

This is a good thing for both the village and the Uchiha clan.

Yagami Yoruichi had no idea what Uchiha Fugaku was thinking, nor did he care.

The group arrived outside Rock Hidden Village.

Yagami Yoruichi stood atop the wooden dragon's head, formed the '巳' hand seal, and shouted, "Wood Release - Descends upon the World of Flowering Trees!"

Unlike the understated approach taken when they wiped out the Grass Ninja Village.

When facing the Hidden Village of Iwagakure, Yagami Yoruichi did not hesitate to use his full strength, immediately unleashing a powerful attack of map-cannon level!

Giant trees and vines swept across the area, and huge flowers with diameters of tens of meters bloomed, spreading highly poisonous pollen with the wind and rapidly reaching the entire Rock Hidden Village.

Chapter 221 Onoki's Submissiveness

"Dust Release - Technique of Stripping Away the Primordial World!"

Ōnoki flew high in the sky and shot out a beam of dust-escape light, shattering a wooden dragon that was chasing him.

But in that brief moment, the other two wooden dragons pounced from the left and right, opening their enormous mouths to bite at Onoki.

Below, the vast majority of the Iwagakure ninjas had been entangled in vines and hung on the trees.

Only Huang Tu remained, leading a small number of elite ninjas, struggling to hold on against Yagami Yoruichi's offensive.

In preparation for the war, Onoki recalled almost all of the Iwagakure ninja back to the village, which made it easy for Yagami Yoruichi to capture them all.

"Damn it! How can this Wood Release brat be so strong?!"

Onoki began to question the meaning of life.

In Yagami Yoruichi, he seemed to see the unparalleled oppressive feeling of Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara back then.

The mere burst of chakra gave him a sense of fear, as if he had encountered a natural enemy.

The ninjutsu he casually unleashed required Onoki to exert all his strength to barely parry it.

"Flying ninjas are a real problem."

As Yagami Yoruichi watched Ōnoki accelerate upwards and escape from the attack of the two wooden dragons, she couldn't help but frown.

Yagami Yoruichi's Wood Dragon can barely be considered a ninjutsu capable of attacking aerial targets.

But it doesn't actually fly; it needs to use its tail to support itself on the ground. It's just that it's so big that it looks like it's flying.

However, when facing the truly flying Onoki, the Wood Dragon's agility was far inferior, and it was difficult for it to catch up with the incredibly nimble Onoki.

Of course, if the battle goes on for a while, I will be able to defeat Onoki sooner or later.

This little old man was much older than Hiruzen Sarutobi, almost seventy years old.

Neither his chakra reserves nor his physical strength were sufficient to sustain him in high-intensity battles for an extended period.

If things drag on any longer, Onoki will definitely be the first to give in.

He couldn't escape using flying ninjutsu if he was alone.

His flight speed wasn't particularly fast; he was just more agile than the wooden dragon.

With just Wood Release, Yoruichi Yagami was confident she could defeat Onoki in a little longer, not to mention she had many other methods at her disposal.

For example, when combined with Ryze's control skills, although it is difficult to lock onto Onoki, who is extremely agile in the high sky, as long as you can succeed once, you can end the battle instantly.

Even if you try several times, it won't take too much time or chakra.

However, Yoruichi Yagami did not have the patience to continue entangled with Onoki.

"Rune Imprisonment!"

Yagami Yoruichi unleashed a burst of chakra, controlling the yellow earth.

Vines quickly wrapped around Huang Tu's muscular body, their sharp barbs digging deep into his flesh.

Without Huang Tu's leadership, the other elite ninjas were no match for Yagami Yoruichi's Wood Release and were captured one after another.

Several Jonin were killed instantly because Yagami Yoruichi didn't control the force of his attack properly; their bones and internal organs were crushed by the tough vines.

Thus, the battle had lasted only half an hour.

Apart from Onoki, all the ninjas and civilians of Iwagakure Village fell under the control of Yagami Yoruichi.
