Naruto: The Infinite New World

Chapter 325 A Battle Without a Winner

A powerful destructive force was tearing everything apart.

The Tailed Beast Ball, the most powerful attack, completely destroyed the surrounding forest floor.

When all the aftershocks subsided.

Minato Namikaze crouched on the ground, his chakra cloak gone, leaving only a point beneath his feet to stand. He looked at the Raikage who had landed on the slope of the pit in the distance, his lightning-woven clothes barely covering his body.

The other person was also catching their breath.

The two fought without holding back at all; in such a short time, they had already exhausted all their strength.

The surrounding area was riddled with huge, cratered holes, a result of the two men's battle.

There was also damage caused by two Jinchūriki.

Even the ninjas from both sides had fled their battlefield.

If we stay here any longer, it would be a shame to die.

"boom!"

"boom!"

Kushina was still fighting Burubi, and the two Jinchūriki were locked in a fierce battle.

Instead of controlling the Nine-Tails' chakra to form claws, Kushina unleashed a barrage of punches and kicks infused with the Nine-Tails' immense chakra.

The immense chakra amplifies the power of the Super Strength Technique, making it even stronger.

The air seemed to scream and howl under her fists.

Even Brubi didn't dare to take Kushina's punch head-on.

Kushina relied entirely on her extremely agile body to dodge counterattacks; her speed made it impossible for her to hit anyone.

Although Brubi wasn't equipped with a chakra weapon, he didn't need any other fancy things thanks to the power of the Eight-Tails.

He used speed to fight Kushina.

Suddenly, chains shot out from the ground and wrapped around Brupi's feet.

"I've got you."

Kushina grinned.

He raised his fist high.

"Full Power! Super Strength Technique!!"

The situation was starting to look bad.

Buru made a heart shape with her hands.

A massive amount of lightning chakra gathered around him, and a skull appeared in front of him.

"Thunderous Plow and Hot Blade!!"

"Die a hundred times over!!"

Brubi transformed into a red shadow and rushed towards Kushina, the chains binding her feet shattering under his sudden burst of power.

Kushina charged forward, fists raised.

The two quickly passed each other, both collapsing to the ground, spitting blood.

Both Ai and Minato Namikaze, who were recovering their strength, narrowed their eyes.

"The final blow."

Raikage A no longer intended to continue fighting Minato Namikaze.

"That's exactly what I was thinking too."

Minato Namikaze was worried about Kushina's safety and didn't want to delay any longer, so he raised his hand and quickly condensed a ball of chakra.

Ai began to gather chakra with one hand, and the remaining white lightning on his body gradually gathered on his fingertips.

"Hell Thrust! One-Shot Punch!!"

"Rasengan!!"

The Thunder Finger collided with the Rasengan, and a bright white light shone, enveloping the two of them.

Jin, who was watching the game, shook his head and stood up.

"I'm gone."

"Isn't the outcome still undecided?"

Shennong looked at Jin with confusion. "You're the one who brought us to watch the battle. Now that the outcome is almost decided, you're about to leave with your men."

"The two are locked in a stalemate because they're both held back by the people around them."

Jin said without turning around.

"The two of them are evenly matched; unless they fight to the death, it will be impossible to determine a winner."

Shennong hesitated for a moment but still followed Jin.

Why are there so many monsters in the ninja world?

A dark rift opened up in front of them, and the two stepped inside.

Minato Namikaze and Ai stumbled to the ground and disappeared from the spot.

Ai helped Brubi up, and Minato Namikaze also helped Kushina up.

The two exchanged a glance.

Ai grinned at Minato Namikaze.

"Kid, you're a good opponent."

"Lord Raikage, we're even."

Minato Namikaze responded with a smile.

At this moment, the Konoha ninjas who had left the battlefield appeared next to Minato Namikaze, and the Cloud ninjas also jumped behind A one by one.

"Looking forward to the next battle."

Ai led the Cloud Ninja and jumped backward, quickly leaving the battlefield.

Until the Cloud Ninja could no longer be seen.

Minato Namikaze couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Minato, what's wrong?"

At this point, Kushina supports Minato Namikaze.

Minato Namikaze shook his head: "It's nothing."

In the distance, Lei Ying, who was rushing forward, half-squatted on a tree and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Ai, are you alright?"

Brubi's eyes widened instantly, and she hurriedly asked a question.

All the Cloud Ninjas stopped.

This is their Raikage, the spiritual pillar of the entire Hidden Cloud Village.

"It's nothing." Ai wiped the blood from her mouth with her sleeve.

His face, however, showed no sign of diminishing his fighting spirit.

"Minato Namikaze is a good opponent."

Ai grinned, revealing a fierce and determined smile.

Only in this way.

War is never boring.

Jin led Shennong back to the fortress of Kongren Village.

All the empty ninjas are cleaning up the mess.

Jin's single strike caused extensive damage to the entire fortress.

"How do you plan to take something this big?"

Shennong asked curiously.

For now, we'll feign compliance with this man, waiting for an opportunity to directly annex the entire Land of Rain.

Shennong silently gave himself a thumbs up.

"Is there anything else outside?"

Jin asked aloud.

Shennong shook his head.

"No, all life in the Sky Ninja Village takes place inside the fortress."

The fortress was large enough for a village to live a normal life, not to mention that their population was not large after being devastated in World War II.

"Then there's no problem."

Jin nodded, and darkness began to spread beneath his feet, rapidly expanding outwards like a tide.

"What is this?!"

Kong Ren stared in panic at the darkness beneath his feet.

The ground was quickly shrouded in darkness.

"They're eating us?!"

She screamed in terror.

The legs had been swallowed by darkness.

It was too late to escape; the darkness was rising much faster than they could move.

Darkness engulfed all the empty ninjas, gradually devouring the entire fortress from the inside out, transforming the underground fortress into a giant black egg.

They suddenly vanished into thin air.

Without the support of the fortress, the ground began to collapse.

"Boom!"

When the light reappears.

Shennong knelt on the ground, breathing heavily. The other Kongren were not to be outdone; fear still lingered on their faces.

He looked at the large hole exposed in the fortress, where a light drizzle continued to flow.

"Welcome to the Land of Rain."

"Everyone."

Jin opened her arms wide.

One by one, figures jumped in through the hole and knelt down behind him.

"Your Excellency, Daimyo."

The moment the Rain Army members who came to scout saw Jin, their hearts, which had been hanging in suspense, were put at ease.

After all, everyone would be terrified if such a large thing appeared next to the new city.

"Truly..." Shennong opened his mouth, "Powerful."

Moving such a large object over such a long distance would require an enormous amount of chakra, even with space-time ninjutsu.

At this moment, one of the Jonin from the Rain Army approached the golden statue and whispered a few words in his ear.

"The Sand Village and Iwa Village are scouting the Land of Rain."

A smile appeared on Jin's face.

It seems that the Land of Rain cannot remain uninvolved this time, unlike in the previous timeline.
