Simultaneously traversing from the beginning of the rampage in Konoha

Even knowing the truth, Jiraiya did not stop the Konoha ninja from cheering.

After all, judging from the battle against this enormous ninja beast alone, this battle to protect the village is completely out of the question for ordinary ninjas.

Even if more Konoha ninjas attacked, they would only be pitiful cannon fodder.

They can cheer when they win, but what does the responsibility have to do with them when they lose?

It is always the fault of those at the top who created this mess.

This is not the responsibility of ordinary Konoha ninjas, but the sin owed to them by a group of incompetent high-ranking officials.

"……Um?"

Just then, Uchiha Sasuke was the first to notice the anomaly, and due to his lack of experience, he subconsciously let out a soft "Eh."

Even though they managed to stop it in time, Jiraiya had already noticed something was wrong.

"That's... to survive such a terrifying attack, what a fearsome ninja beast!"

"Sage Art: Goemon!"

The blazing torrent of fire, oil, and wind, fused together, surged like a tsunami towards the half of Lieque lying on the ground.

Although this small stream of fire was insignificant in front of Lie Que, it was enough to push the heavily injured creature one step closer to death.

"Don't even think about it!"

During this period of time, Sasuke Uchiha did not develop any respect for Lie Que; instead, he was filled with wariness and a hidden fear.

But at this moment, even for his own sake, he absolutely could not let Lie Que die completely like this.

So he gritted his teeth and rushed between Huoliu and Lieque.

After all, they had just been frightened away by that frog-singing illusion.

He discovered that the trial version of Susanoo, while not achieving much in battle under his control, possessed incredibly strong defensive capabilities.

As long as he remained unmoved, no matter how Jiraiya attacked, whether it was flames, mud, or even that oversized Rasengan, he could withstand it.

Even in the face of the indestructible Susanoo, it was as harmless as a spring breeze.

Even the most troublesome magical toad song, after being interrupted by Lie Que's beastly roar, was never uttered again.

The lightning spears held in each hand, like two fans, shattered or deflected large swaths of flame.

"Konoha ninja, heed my command! Attack the corpse of the ninja beast with all your might!"

"We absolutely must not let it come back to life!"

Although I don't want to let ordinary Konoha ninjas die needlessly, the Susanoo that Sasuke Uchiha is wearing is indeed troublesome.

Of course, there are ways to bypass him and attack the ninja beasts, but with Sasuke Uchiha's interference, it is almost impossible to achieve effective damage.

Left with no other choice, Jiraiya had to shout loudly, and at the same time, he felt increasingly urgent.

Even with the help of Fukasaku and Shima, the duration of Sage Mode has already passed more than halfway.

"Tsunade, if you don't wake up soon, the village will be gone!"

Jiraiya was naturally aware of Tsunade's hemophobia, and after seeing Tsunade recently, he understood even more how serious the condition was.

But faced with the village's existential crisis, he couldn't let go of any useful fighting force.

And then...

"All ninja, listen to my command! If Shimura Danzo does not appear with Root within one minute, he will be classified as an S-rank rogue ninja of Konoha!"

Jiraiya doesn't have the same complex feelings that Hiruzen Sarutobi had for Danzo Shimura.

Since returning to Konoha to assume the position of Hokage more than half a month ago, Danzo Shimura's dissatisfaction with him has accumulated to the point of near limit.

This time, he once again acted like a coward, trying to reap the rewards at the last minute.

The enemy has been wreaking havoc in Konoha for half a day, but not a single Root ninja has been seen.

Jiraiya, naturally, could no longer tolerate it.

So he used what might be his last Hokage power to strike hard at Shimura Danzo's most vulnerable concern.

Unfortunately, even though Danzo Shimura was willing to offer assistance, it was all in vain.

They could only take other actions after Uchiha Owl and Uchiha Izumi had vented their anger on him.

……

It is perpetually shrouded in darkness, and the cold stone walls exude a chilling aura, with a faint smell of blood permeating the air.

Within the vast Root base beneath Konoha, Uchiha Owl acted with the unbridled and unrestrained arrogance of an old man taking a leisurely stroll after dinner.

His eyes, the kaleidoscope of triangular darts, were spinning slightly, while behind him, charred black human figures filled the wide passageway.

The crackling sound of electricity continued incessantly, which annoyed Uchiha Owl.

"Lightning Release: Accumulated Lightning Wave!"

Fine, purplish-black currents, no thicker than a hair, raced across the ground.

Combined with Uchiha Owl's sensory abilities, it enveloped the entire Root organization like interconnected spider webs.

Upon seeing this, numerous Root ninjas scattered throughout the area became alert and even used Wind Release ninjutsu to attack the electric grid.

However, the Wind Release, which should have been able to suppress, cut, and disrupt Lightning Release, seemed so powerless against ninjutsu enhanced by a massive amount of chakra.

"boom!"

The sound of the wind blowing by caused what was originally a tingling, harmless electric current to surge forth in an instant.

The purplish-black light occupied every corner of the passage it traversed.

In an instant, the world fell silent.

The sound emitted by the electric current that had been protecting him from the nano-sized venomous insects also disappeared.

Although the Kaleidoscope Eye Technique of his left eye, Yamata Orochi, granted him superhuman physical abilities and regenerative powers.

This made him unafraid of the harassment of these poisonous insects.

Even Uchiha Izumi's Edo Tensei state can ignore the attacks of poisonous insects.

But the thought of those insects that crawled in and out of other people's bodies flying onto his own made Uchiha Owl feel extremely disgusted.

Meanwhile, the Mangekyou Sharingan technique in his right eye, Takemikazuchi, granted Uchiha Owl unparalleled talent in lightning release.

This is exactly the kind of scenario that's applicable here.

This simple lightning-style ninjutsu was a quick fix he devised to clear the area.

Although this ninjutsu is only B-rank in terms of learning difficulty, its power far exceeds that of S-rank.

The effects of ninjutsu vary drastically depending on who uses it.

It can be like a flame, or it can be like a sea of ​​fire.

They continued striding forward, undisturbed by anything around them.

Finally, when they reached the edge of the Root, an invisible mental shock formed by Yin Release chakra quietly "smashed" into Uchiha Owl's mind.

However, this Mind Confusion Technique, which even the current, no, the previous clan leader Yamanaka Inoichi, couldn't match, had no effect on Uchiha Owl.

Yamanaka Fu's fate was similar to Yamanaka Inoichi's, and even resembled Itachi Uchiha's Totsuka Blade.

Any attack that touches on Uchiha Owl's spirit will face a counterattack from the Starry Sky Atrium.

He didn't even get a chance to cry out in pain before collapsing to the ground. Although his body was still alive, his soul had been completely shattered, and even the Impure World Reincarnation technique couldn't bring him back.

Outside the unassuming secret room, Uchiha Owl and Uchiha Izumi's eyes gleamed with a scarlet light.

Click!

The obsidian shattered, and a massive, 3.2-meter-long weapon was grasped in the hands of Uchiha Owl.

boom!

With a deafening roar, the door disguised as a wall shattered instantly.

The axe and halberd, still powerful from being thrown, severed Shimura Danzo's right arm.
