Naruto: In Konoha Village, I awakened Wood Release at the start.

Border of the Land of Fire.

Five thousand Cloud Hidden Army soldiers pressed in.

The murderous aura they exuded even frightened the birds in the sky.

However, the Konoha garrison on the border numbered only a few hundred.

The garrison captain gripped a kunai tightly, his hands trembling like a leaf.

"Damn it..."

"This number is outrageous!"

"Where are the reinforcements? Why hasn't the village sent anyone yet!"

The Konoha ninjas looked ashen-faced.

Faced with such a massive military force, they were like a lone boat on a vast ocean.

On the opposite side of the battlefield.

The Fourth Raikage, A, was enveloped in raging blue lightning.

His muscles bulged, as if they contained the power to destroy mountains.

"You scum of Konoha!"

"Hand over your damn Fifth Hokage!"

"I'm going to twist his head off and use it as a football!"

Raikage's roar shattered the leaves.

Beside him, Killer Bee, wearing sunglasses, drew his ninja sword.

"Idiot, bastard!"

"The guys from Konoha are all cowards!"

"My blade is itching for blood!"

Kirabi twisted his body while singing a terrible rap.

The Cloud Hidden Army roared thunderously, their morale soaring to its peak.

"attack!"

"Crush Konoha!"

Raikage suddenly waved his hand.

Thousands of Cloud Hidden Army soldiers surged out like a flood bursting its banks.

The garrison of Konoha closed their eyes in despair.

At this critical moment.

Boom!

A deafening sonic boom came from high above.

Like a falling meteor.

A figure crashed onto the open ground where the two armies met.

The earth trembled!

The terrifying shockwave transformed into a tangible gale, sweeping outwards in all directions.

The hundreds of Cloud Village ninjas at the forefront were blown away by the strong wind.

The smoke and dust cleared.

Chiba stood with his hands behind his back, wearing a sacred robe.

His cold gaze swept over the Cloud Hidden Army before him, as if he were looking at a group of insignificant ants.

"Raikage".

"How do you want to die?"

Chiba's voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.

"It's the fifth generation!"

"The Hokage has arrived!"

The garrison of Konoha immediately erupted in cheers of relief at surviving the ordeal.

"Senju Chiba!"

"You actually dared to come here alone to die!"

"Kill him!"

When Raikage Ai saw Chiba, his eyes instantly turned blood red.

He killed a Jonin from his own village and now he wants to pay for the damages!

This blatant provocation is simply unforgivable!

As Raikage finished speaking.

Thousands of Cloud Village ninjas simultaneously formed hand seals.

Lightning Release, Fire Release, Water Release, and shuriken rained down on Chiba.

This intense attack was enough to level a small hill.

however.

Chiba didn't even blink.

He slapped his hands together in front of his chest.

The crisp sound of clapping drowned out all the noise.

"Wood Release: Advent of the Tree World!"

In an instant.

The earth cracked violently.

Countless thick tree trunks burst forth from the ground, like gnarled chains of hell.

These tree trunks grow extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, they intertwine to form a vast primeval forest.

"ah--!"

Screams echoed throughout the room.

Those ninjutsu that came rushing towards them were directly blocked by the hard Wood Release.

The charging Cloud Village ninjas were instantly entangled by the wildly dancing vines.

Click!Click!

The sound of bones breaking is chilling.

The vines strangled life like venomous snakes, greedily draining their chakra.

It was just a fleeting glance.

Thousands of Cloud Hidden elites were left hanging in mid-air, completely incapacitated.

Blood stained the leaves red.

The Cloud Hidden Army, which had been riding high on morale, was instantly plunged into immense panic.

"What kind of monster is this?!"

"Retreat now!"

"Ninjutsu can't penetrate these trees at all!"

The Cloud Village ninjas frantically swung their ninja swords, trying to cut the vines.

However, these Wood Release techniques, infused with the perfect Sage Body's chakra, are harder than iron.

Even if you cut with a ninja sword, it won't even break the skin.

Upon seeing this.

Ray Shadow Ai was so angry that he trembled all over.

"You bastard!"

"Get out of my way, all of you!"

Lightning Release Chakra Mode activated to maximum.

The Raikage's hair stood on end like steel needles.

He transformed into a streak of blue lightning, violently smashing through the tree trunks along the way, heading straight for Chiba!

"Heavy Storm!"

The Raikage concentrated his Lightning Release chakra in his elbow.

This blow was enough to collapse a city wall.

He was going to completely crush this arrogant kid in terms of physical skills!

Chiba looked at the Raikage rushing towards him and a cold smile appeared on his lips.

You want to challenge me to a physical combat contest?

Did you really think I only knew how to use ninjutsu?

To know.

With the blessing of a perfect immortal body.

Chiba's physical skills have reached the peak of the Kage level.

the most important is.

Chiba's teacher, Tsunade, was also a master of taijutsu.

Under such circumstances.

Chiba's physical skills are even more powerful than I imagined.

He didn't even bother to dodge, and suddenly clenched his right fist, his chakra being compressed wildly on his fist.

Strange power!

There were no fancy moves, just a simple straight punch.

He slammed his elbow down hard, meeting Raikage's attack head-on.

boom!

The instant fists and elbows collide.

A blinding white light burst forth.

A visible sonic boom cloud exploded between the two.

The surrounding ground collapsed instantly.

The massive tree trunk, too thick for more than a dozen people to encircle, was uprooted by this force.

"Nani!"

The rage on Raikage's face froze instantly.

Instead, there was an undeniable shock.

The power surging from Chiba's fist was like that of a rampaging tailed beast!

Click!

A sickening cracking sound rang out.

The Raikage's most prized armor was rendered useless against Chiba's monstrous strength.

His right arm was bent in a bizarre way.

"what!"

Raikage cried out in pain.

He was sent flying backwards like a cannonball.

It crashed through more than a dozen towering trees in succession.

Finally, it crashed heavily into a distant hill, collapsing most of the hilltop.

The entire room fell silent.

The ninjas from both Kumogakure and Konoha were dumbfounded.

That's the Fourth Raikage, known for his physical strength!

In a direct physical combat duel, he was actually sent flying by a single punch?

"Big brother!"

Kirabi's eyes widened in horror.

He ripped off his sunglasses, and the Eight-Tails' chakra within him surged wildly.

A dark red tailed beast cloak instantly covered his entire body.

Eight enormous octopus tentacles burst forth from its body.

"You damn Konoha brat!"

"I'll show you the wrath of the Eight-Tails!"

Killer Bee fully transforms into a tailed beast.

A gigantic bull demon, as large as a mountain, suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

The terrifying pressure from the tailed beasts made the air thick and sticky.

Ordinary ninjas can't even stand up straight.

"Finally, someone who can take a beating."

"Wood Release: Wood Dragon Technique!"

Chiba looked up at the enormous creature, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.

He clasped his hands together again, and the chakra within him erupted like a tsunami.

Rumble!

The earth cracked open again.

A massive wooden dragon, no less large than an eight-tailed dragon, roared and soared into the sky.

The wooden dragon is covered in sharp wooden thorns.

It circled halfway in the air and then bit down on the neck of the Eight-Tailed Beast.

The thick dragon body tightly coiled around the eight-tailed creature.

"roar!"

The Eight-Tails let out a painful roar.

It struggled desperately, trying to tear the wooden dragon apart with its tentacles.

But this wooden dragon is practically the nemesis of tailed beasts.

The moment of contact.

The chakra within the Eight-Tails began to drain away rapidly.
