Chapter 60 Conflict!

Minato Namikaze stood atop the highest branch, his azure eyes gazing into the distance.

Even without the Byakugan's super long-range vision, Minato Namikaze could sense the dense mass of chakra stretching out in front of him.

He thought, "They really don't hide it at all."

The Land of Lightning, the Hidden Cloud Village, is a formidable enemy that has always been warlike and aggressive towards outsiders, yet is also quite united internally, making it a very troublesome and formidable foe.

But Minato Namikaze felt no fear. With the Flying Thunder God Technique in hand, there were very few people in the world who could overpower him.

He threw a few specially made kunai as teleportation points, his figure disappeared from the spot, and he teleported to his companions behind him.

"Namikaze-sama..."

Most of the vanguard members of Konoha are here. Excluding those who guarded the rear route, those who died on the way, and those who were sent to be "free agents," there are still more than 320 people left.

There was some damage, but not much, and it was within an acceptable range.

"The enemy is directly ahead, about five kilometers from here." Minato Namikaze said calmly, surveying the surroundings.

"We're going to fight them there."

"The Cloud Village arrived before us, and they have already set up defensive ninjutsu. Rushing in would come at a great cost."

"So I'll be the first to go in and disrupt their formation. Once you see the signal, you can engage them head-on!"

The handsome young man with blond hair stroked his specially made kunai, his tone gentle:

"Does anyone have any objections?"

Neither the Hyuga nor the Uchiha clans expressed any objection.

On the battlefield, going head-to-head with your direct superior can really lead to death.

Moreover, in the ninja world, where extraordinary powers exist, the art of war command is of little use. Most of the time, it's all about sheer courage and brute force. As a leader, Minato Namikaze's willingness to lead the charge and be the first to charge into battle makes him an absolutely qualified leader.

"Alright." Minato Namikaze chuckled.

"Then, everyone, I hope we can meet again tonight."

Even with the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan, the Flying Thunder God Technique could not detect how he disappeared.

One second, two seconds, three seconds... Seven seconds later, dust billowed in the jungle five kilometers away, and a series of explosions soared into the sky. The defenses and traps built by the Hidden Cloud Village were quickly dismantled, and vibrant lives were ruthlessly harvested.

Roar!

The Konoha members who remained in place heard the ferocious roar of the beast. Even from such a distance, the ominous chakra of the Eight-Tails still gave them goosebumps.

"Charge!" Someone shouted, and more than 320 Konoha ninjas began to move. They swung their hands behind their backs and charged forward at high speed.

When they arrived on the battlefield, they saw the cratered and ravaged land, and three powerful figures clashing violently. The shockwaves they generated swept across the sky and forest, and every bit of the leaked power was enough to take the life of an ordinary ninja.

Minato Namikaze and the "AB combination" of Kumogakure are at war once again.

The Cloud Village noticed the Konoha ninja rushing towards them. Without any hesitation, they abandoned their wounded comrade, and the silver arcs of lightning crackled.

Without even a single charge, the two sides clashed violently, and within seconds, more than a dozen ninjas closed their eyes forever.

Uchiha fireballs, Aburame's swarm of insects, swords flashing with lightning release light, and a bronze-skinned figure moving with incredible speed...

Under the influence of colorful ninjutsu, this land gradually became riddled with holes, and its original ecosystem was completely destroyed. Even small beasts hiding deep underground would be crushed into dust by the power of chakra.

Severed limbs, internal organs, and fresh blood.

Slaughter became the theme of this land.

Whether it's a young person with a reputation for genius, a seasoned ninja who has been through countless battles, or a young man whose sweetheart is still waiting in the village, they may all lose their lives here.

For most ninjas, and even most Jonin, a small kunai could easily take their lives.

Even with the existence of chakra, people are not happier as a result.

But perhaps, even if they lose chakra, humanity will find other "superpowers" to use to slaughter their own kind.

The name of that superpower might be "steam," "electric power," "nuclear fission," "genetic programming," etc.

The world has always been a giant arena.

……

Hinata Yuto stopped by the stream.

Those magical white eyes were turned on at their highest power ever, with veins bulging to an exaggerated degree, making one worry that their blood vessels might burst.

Even when he concentrated all his chakra into his eyes, Hyuga Yuto could only see a blurry cloud of smoke in the far distance.

"About ten kilometers from the center of the battlefield." He estimated the distance, micro-investigating the distribution of kra, keeping the Byakugan's power at an appropriate level.

However, at that moment, a group of people appeared in Bai Yan's field of vision.

It was a small supply team belonging to Kumogakure, consisting of two Chunin, five Genin, and the rest ordinary soldiers from the Land of Lightning.

Hinata Yuto frowned almost imperceptibly.

He was going the same way as someone else and might bump into them. He touched his chin, formed hand seals, and tried to use a transformation spell to cover himself up.

But before releasing his chakra, he stopped and remained in his original form.

Suddenly, the handsome young man from the branch family sighed:

"Be careful, maybe you should silence them."

He drew two kunai and hid them in front of him, then stood still with his head down.

Soon, the supply team spotted him.

"Hey! You in front! Who are you? State your identity!" the leading Chunin from Kumogakure shouted.

Swish!

Without any response, Hyuga Yuto, who had been practicing Gentle Fist and honing his superhuman strength for seven months since childhood, possessed power and speed far exceeding that of a Chunin, even when he only used kunai to engage in close combat.

In less than a minute, the entire Cloud Hidden Squad was wiped out.

Smoke billowed, and a slug the size of a house appeared through a spirit medium.

"Lord Slug, consume all the corpses and supplies of these Cloud Village ninjas. Hide them in Shikkotsu Forest for now, and I'll clean them up in a few days."

"Okay, Yuuto-kun."

The slug wrapped itself completely in its soft body and disappeared into the white smoke.

In war, countless small squads disappear without attracting anyone's attention.

Hyuga Yuto looked around to make sure he hadn't missed anything, then continued towards the battlefield ten kilometers away.

He didn't use too much speed. The Byakugan was his weapon, but it was also someone else's. Every time he got close, there was a possibility that a Konoha ninja could see him.

However, after walking three kilometers, Hyuga Yuto thought about it carefully and took out a hideous Hannya mask and put it on his face.

As darkness fell, he smelled the stench of blood in the air.

This is war, where countless lives perish in the vortex of slaughter, regardless of age or gender.

Missing persons, deaths, maiming, massacres—things that cause a huge uproar in peacetime rarely stir up a massive wave in war.

Wearing the Hannya mask, Hyuga Yuto took a deep breath.

"What a convenient thing, war."
