Konoha's lexicon of ninjas

"This...this is the power of the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki?"

"That's terrifying!"

"Such power is impossible to resist, isn't it?"

"They're on completely different levels!"

Clang!

A ninja's sword fell to the ground without him noticing.

Some people even collapsed to the ground.

The meteorite falling from the sky caused the Allied Shinobi Forces, who had just defeated the White Zetsu army, to lose their will to fight.

Even figures like Onoki and the Fourth Raikage felt powerless at this moment.

"That's incredible power. Even at my full strength, I'm afraid I could only handle one meteorite."

Kakashi's expression was extremely solemn, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.

There were too many meteorites!

At this moment, Might Guy's expression turned serious. He clenched his fists and crouched down: "It seems the time has come to ignite my passion and transform into the Blue Beast of Konoha!"

As he spoke, veins bulged on Kai's forehead.

"Eight Gates Formation, First Gate, Open!"

"Third door, open!"

boom!

A green light enveloped Kai.

But it wasn't over yet. Under the shocked gazes of those around him, Kai opened the seventh gate in one go. Blue light enveloped his entire body, and the powerful aura generated by the force made those around him involuntarily retreat.

"So strong!"

"The Eight Gates Formation, huh? It's reached this level? Truly astonishing!"

Many people were shocked.

Kakashi had already witnessed this before, and immediately unleashed his Tailed Beast chakra, shouting, "Guy, I'm here to help you!"

"I'll do it!"

As Obito Uchiha spoke, Susanoo rapidly formed.

"Kai, I'll take it from you!"

"Obito Uchiha shouted."

Might Guy immediately leaped onto Susanoo's hand, and the next moment he was thrown out by Susanoo, flying at high speed towards the meteorite in the air.

Immediately afterwards, with a loud boom, a gust of wind swept in all directions, and Obito Uchiha's Susanoo soared into the sky.

Kakashi covered his face with his hands, but his eyes were fixed on the two people who were soaring into the sky.

boom!

The meteorite exploded, and Kai launched the first attack, using Day Tiger to smash one of the meteorites.

Immediately afterwards, Obito Uchiha's Susanoo unleashed a giant black shuriken, and the meteorite that was hit was instantly sucked into the Kamui dimension.

"Well done, Obito!"

Kakashi was genuinely happy, and then he saw Obito Uchiha's Susanoo draw his sword, swing his arms, and in the blink of an eye, cleave a huge meteorite in two.

The surrounding ninjas couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "How amazing!"

The low morale was lifted.

The Fourth Raikage shouted at Onoki, "Tsuchikage, we can't let our juniors outdo us!"

"certainly!"

Onoki flew to the Fourth Raikage's side and cast the Super Light Heavy Rock Technique on him.

The next moment, the two of them soared into the sky.

Immediately afterward, Hashirama Senju shouted, "Fourth Hokage!"

With shouts, giant trees rose from the ground, and then the wooden figures towered up.

Minato Namikaze vanished from his spot in a flash, reappearing beside Hashirama Senju atop the wooden head.

Sage Mode!

Minato Namikaze revealed his eye shadow, opened his arms, and a Wind Release: Rasengan shuriken materialized in each hand. He then swung them out one after the other, accurately hitting a meteorite one after the other.

However, after firing two Rasengan shuriken, Minato Namikaze's Sage Mode disappeared.

He can indeed enter Sage Mode instantly, but he can't maintain it for long.

"continue!"

Hashirama Senju placed his hand on Minato Namikaze's shoulder, and a massive amount of chakra surged into Minato's body.

"Such powerful chakra!"

Minato Namikaze showed delight, then entered Sage Mode again and created shadow clones to create Wind Release: Rasengan.

Besides them, Uchiha Shisui also rode Susanoo and soared into the sky.

Hoshinobi Shuichi's numerous clones then cast the Super Light Heavy Rock Technique on each of the shadows.

The shadowy figures rose into the air together, each using their own methods to bombard the falling meteorite.

Seeing this scene, the ninjas of the Allied Shinobi Forces couldn't help but feel their blood boil.

"Let's work together to break up the falling rocks!"

"Let's use Water Release together!"

"All Sand Village ninja, use Wind Release!"

"Sarutobi clan, Uchiha clan, use Fire Release!"

……

At their headquarters, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Shikaku Nara, and many other ninjas joined forces, unleashing wind, fire, lightning, water, and earth techniques as they soared into the sky.

Madara Uchiha chuckled as he watched this scene: "Heh, all in vain."

The next moment, he pressed his palm to the ground, and a huge divine tree rose from the ground and continued to grow.

"What is that?"

Someone suddenly screamed.

Amidst the billowing dust, a colossal ancient tree grew rapidly, making even Susanoo, wooden figures, and meteorites appear tiny in comparison.

Hashirama Senju's gaze sharpened: "It's Wood Release... no, no, this feeling..."

As Hoshino Shuichi watched the rapidly growing and ever-expanding Divine Tree, his eyes sparkled even more intensely.

The divine tree has finally emerged!

"Let everyone become nourishment for the divine tree!"

Madara Uchiha stood on a thick branch, manipulating the Divine Tree.

In an instant, the divine tree sprouted thick roots, like dragons and snakes, sweeping towards the Allied Shinobi Forces like a tidal wave.

"Be careful!"

"The attack is coming!"

"Is this the same Wood Release technique used by the First Hokage?"

One by one, the ninjas shouted and attacked.

But soon, screams rose and fell as ninjas were captured by the Divine Tree, their chakra rapidly draining away, and they quickly became thinner and thinner.

"I am Hoshino Shizuka. Now, everyone, obey my command and retreat!"

Hoshino Shuichi's voice reached the ears of all the ninjas.

"Run!"

"Retreat quickly! These things can't hold us off!"

The newly organized ninja alliance immediately collapsed and retreated in disarray, following Hoshino Shuichi's orders.

But ninjas continued to be captured.

Kakashi leaped forward, wielding the White Fang short sword in one hand and the Thousand Birds spear in the other, severing thick tree roots and saving ninjas one by one.

However, more and more tree roots came and entangled Kakashi.

"Damn it, there are too many!"

Kakashi gritted his teeth, and tailed beast chakra surged from his body, increasing his speed once again.

Boom boom boom!

Kurenai Yuhi, Anko, and Genji Shiranui were all saved by Kakashi.

"Retreat immediately!"

Kakashi shouted.

Kurenai and the others hurriedly fled backwards.

At this moment, atop the Divine Tree, watching Hoshino Shizuka approach with a whoosh, along with Hoshino Shizuka's numerous clones and the reanimated ninja, he couldn't help but sneer: "Then let's try attack mode!"

With Madara Uchiha's control, what were originally just tree roots transformed into wooden dragons, instantly boosting their attack power several levels.

"Damn it, Samehada has absolutely no effect on these pieces of wood; instead, it drains my chakra!"

Gekko Hayate, wielding his greatsword Samehada, retreated repeatedly.

Not far away, Namiashi Raido, wielding a decapitation sword, was also being chased by the wooden dragon and forced to flee in a sorry state.

Kakashi, who displayed the chakra of the tailed beasts, was even more alluring, and more and more wood dragons attacked, surrounding him completely.

The Thousand Birds Spear was bitten, and the White Fang Short Sword in his hand was broken.

Just as Kakashi was about to be bitten by the wooden dragon, a huge figure descended from the sky, accompanied by a huge roar and a terrible storm, cutting down all the wooden dragons.

"Kakashi, you're still the same old Cheng Qiang!"

Obito Uchiha's voice rang out, and Kakashi was immediately grabbed by Susanoo and brought to Obito's side. On the other side was Guy, who had activated the Seal of Life to recover his strength.

"Dealing with these wooden dragons is useless; the key is the divine tree itself!"

As he spoke, Obito Uchiha swung his Susanoo sword, severing the incoming wooden dragon before leaping into the air.

Kakashi nodded: "That's true, but it's probably not a coincidence that these things absorb ninjas' chakra, is it?"

Obito Uchiha said, "They probably need to absorb the chakra of ninjas to nourish the Divine Tree, make it bloom, and then unleash the Infinite Tsukuyomi."

"The Ten-Tails is ultimately missing the Nine-Tails, and Shuichi seems to have also diverted a large portion of the Tailed Beasts' power."

Kakashi's expression turned serious as he looked towards the main trunk of the Divine Tree: "Shuichi should be able to stop it, right? If the Infinite Tsukuyomi activates..."

Obito Uchiha frowned upon hearing this, feeling uncertain, but he flew towards the main trunk as fast as he could.

At the same time, Hashirama Senju also unleashed the Advent of a Tree World technique, causing a large number of trees to grow and rush towards the sweeping wooden dragon.

Completely crushing everything in its path!

Hashirama Senju's expression was grim: "We're no match for them at all..."

Soon, even the wooden figures were entangled by the wooden dragons and collapsed, unable to support themselves.

Minato Namikaze immediately led Hashirama Senju away from the battlefield, gazing at the main trunk of the Divine Tree: "The key lies there; we must cut it down!"

Back at headquarters, as information from the battlefield continued to pour in, Nara Shikaku said, "Third Hokage, it seems that only by mobilizing the other armies and joining forces can we possibly cut down that divine tree and stop the Infinite Tsukuyomi from being cast."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression turned solemn as he shook his head and said, "No, we must trust Shuichi."

"He probably anticipated this situation, which is why he allowed ordinary ninjas to approach the main battlefield."

"Now Madara Uchiha has grasped this weakness that can be said to belong to Shuichi."

Nara Shikaku, however, had a worry: Could Hoshino Shuichi manage alone?

It's not that he doesn't trust Hoshino Shuichi.

He dealt with Nagato cleanly and efficiently, but when Madara Uchiha was resurrected, he sensed many strange things.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sensed it too, and said to Shikaku Nara, "I believe in Shuichi!"

"He wouldn't joke about himself or Tsunade!"

Hoshino Shuichi is loyal and righteous, and he has always seen it in his eyes. He is absolutely right!

……

Hoshino Shuichi is saving people.

One by one, the clones that had previously absorbed the White Zetsu cells and split off were now activating their golden Susanoos to rescue the ninjas who were bound by the Divine Tree.

Meanwhile, Hoshino Shuichi's true form was facing Uchiha Madara.

"Saving them will only buy you a little time."

Madara Uchiha spoke.

Hoshita Shuichi chuckled: "They are indeed insignificant, but have you thought about Uchiha Madara?"

"You manipulated Nagato, attempted to control Obito, and wanted to control the entire ninja world, but in reality, you yourself are nothing more than someone else's pawn."

Madara Uchiha suddenly understood: "I see."

"Your goal is also the Divine Tree!"

"That's also immortality!"

"That's why you let Nagato resurrect me."

"However, if you think you can convince me with just a few words, you're mistaken."

Clearly, Madara Uchiha misunderstood Shuichi Hoshino's words.

However, Hoshino Shuichi didn't seem inclined to explain, and chuckled, "You've misunderstood. I've never liked trying to persuade others with words."

"I like to use my fists!"

Madara Uchiha's gaze sharpened, his blood boiling as he declared, "Then let me see your strongest power!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a Seeking Truth Orb shot out, heading straight for Xingxia Xiuyi.

"As you wish!"

Hoshino Hideichi kicked him away and appeared in front of Uchiha Madara in the next moment, his body wreathed in green flames and blood-red lightning.

"So fast!"

Madara Uchiha used his staff to block, which collided with Shuichi Hoshino's fist.

With a snap, the staff broke in two, and the two Truth-Seeking Balls on the left and right rushed towards Hoshino Shuichi. However, Hoshino Shuichi's figure suddenly disappeared and reappeared a hundred meters away.

Earth Breathing!

Hoshino Shuichi's body immediately changed, each cell seemed to turn into the hardest stone, and his body instantly became dozens of times heavier, no less than the Super Weight Rock Technique.

Breath of the Wind!

He took another deep breath, and Hoshino's body was filled with energy. Every cell seemed to be immersed in the energy, and his originally heavy body suddenly became light again.

His body was surrounded by solidified cyan wind blades.

Next is water breathing, which manipulates body fluids and external water, allowing cells to liquefy and regenerate at any time.

The Breath of the Spirit grants the user exceptional sensory abilities, while the Breath of the Yang grants exceptional regenerative abilities.

Finally, breathe naturally.

A surge of natural energy flows into the body, continuously replenishing vitality and further enhancing the previously acquired abilities.

This is a forbidden physical technique that surpasses the Eight Gates Formation.

When all eight breaths are activated, the burning green flames and blood-red lightning all disappear, replaced by golden flames like the sun.

At this moment, Hoshino Shuichi's hair and eyebrows were dyed gold.

Standing in the air, he looked like a small sun.

The terrifying aura it unleashed even caused Madara Uchiha's expression to change: "This guy, he really was hiding his power!"

"However, it's been a long time since I've felt this kind of pressure."

"Then let me see just how magnanimous you really are!"

shhhhhh!

One after another, wooden dragons sprouted from the divine tree and attacked Hoshino Hideichi, but then suddenly split in two.

It's Obito Uchiha's Kamui shuriken!

Madara Uchiha snorted coldly, and one by one, Wood Release clones emerged from the Divine Tree, then activated their Complete Susanoo and attacked Obito Uchiha and his group.

"You'll die if you get distracted by me!"

Hoshita Shuichi's voice rang out from behind Uchiha Madara.

The next moment, the defense formed by the Truth-Seeking Ball exploded, followed by the collision of Shinra Tensei power and Hoshino Shuichi's fist.

boom!

The shockwave exploded, and Madara Uchiha was sent flying.

Hoshino Shuichi's figure soared through the air, instantly catching up with Uchiha Madara, and he kicked out from a distance.

Storm kick!

The terrifying airflow tore through the sky like a dense white light, as if it would rip space itself apart. Madara Uchiha's pupils shrank as he watched this move slice through his Truth-Seeking Balls and easily cut through the rebound force of Shinra Tensei.

Susanoo!

Click!

The storm foot landed on the fully formed Susanoo, still splitting a crack in its path.

But before Madara Uchiha could take the next step, Shuichi Hoshino's attack occurred again.

Hoshino Shuichi's body instantly swelled to a height exceeding that of the Complete Body Susanoo. His enormous fist slammed down, and with a deafening boom, the Complete Body Susanoo exploded. Then, the fist, as large as a mountain, crushed down.

Boom boom boom!

As the Truth-Seeking Balls enveloping his body shattered, Madara Uchiha's body smashed through layer after layer of the Divine Tree's branches, finally crashing into the ground with a deafening roar, creating a huge crater.

"Cough cough cough..."

Madara Uchiha got up from the ground, spitting blood from his mouth, half of his body was also smashed to pieces.

However, as a Truth-Seeking Ball fell, his lost body quickly recovered.

Looking up at Hoshino, Madara Uchiha laughed maniacally, "What astonishing power!"

"I almost got beaten to death!"

"But if it's only this bad... you'll have no choice but to obediently enter the dream."

But the next moment, Madara Uchiha's expression changed as he laughed wildly.

Because Hoshino Shuichi did not pursue them at this moment, his huge body stood in the air, his hands were clasped in a gesture of respect, the surrounding air was reversed and continuously compressed, so that the surrounding light was distorted and spacetime was distorted.

In the blink of an eye, a huge white ball of light appeared between Xingxia Xiu's hands.

Because of the distorted light around it, the ball of light did not appear bright, but Madara Uchiha sensed an extremely terrifying power.

White Dwarf Celestial Cannon!

With a push of his hands, Xingxia Xiu sent the white orb in his hands flying out at more than ten times the speed of sound, carving out a vacuum channel in its path.

Madara Uchiha, who was about to defend himself, suddenly changed his expression: "Damn it, his target is the Divine Tree!"

He was wrong!

He originally thought that Hoshino Shuichi was going to defeat him and obtain the Divine Tree.

However, it was too late at that moment.

The White Dwarf Star Cannon was too fast; it hit the trunk of the Divine Tree in the blink of an eye.

As Xingxia Xiu's body rapidly shrank, she exclaimed, "Explode!"

The air compression cannon that had penetrated the trunk of the divine tree immediately expanded and exploded, shattering a section of the massive trunk into pieces before the divine tree collapsed with a deafening roar.

"So strong!"

Obito Uchiha was surprised.

Might Guy pumped his fist: "Just as I expected, Shuichi did it!"

With the divine tree falling, the wooden dragons that had been attacking the ninjas also stopped.

As Hashirama Senju, Minato Namikaze, and the other ninjas looked at the fallen Divine Tree, they couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

But at that moment, a voice rang in Madara Uchiha's mind.

After his expression changed, Madara Uchiha immediately flew towards the fallen trunk of the Divine Tree.

But at that moment, Hoshinoichi arrived and with a single slash, Madara Uchiha's body was split in two.

But Madara Uchiha no longer had time to care about his other half.

His upper body flew onto the divine tree, and the fallen tree immediately surged into his body in a frenzy.

Hoshino Hideichi reached out and grabbed Madara Uchiha's lower body, absorbing its power as he approached the stump of the Divine Tree.

The next moment, the tree stump and the roots hidden underground began to surge into Hoshino Shuichi's body.

Madara Uchiha ate the trunk and buds of the Divine Tree, while Shuichi Hoshino ate the scraps.

This time, however, Hoshino Shuichi didn't use his mouth to bite. (End of Chapter)
