Naruto: My version is ahead of the ninja world

A giant toad fell from the sky, its exaggerated size and weight crashing to the ground in an instant, carelessly sending the surrounding ninjas flying.

"Am I late? It seems like I'm just in time." The white-haired man standing on the toad's head shouted, but no one paid him any attention.

Such a huge summoning beast, with such a design, it's obvious who created it... The trio of Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and Tsunade from Konoha have finally arrived at the battlefield.

For ordinary ninjas, the destructive power of a summoning beast of this size is not much different from that of a tailed beast. In any case, every attack of theirs causes damage overflow, and being accidentally grazed by one could be fatal. Of course, although summoning beasts are supposed to be "in unison" with the ninja who summons them and "fight together", in reality, once they have taken a certain amount of damage, they will actively cancel the summoning.

Large summoned beasts are good at fighting, but even better at running away.

The giant summoning toad gripped its "short sword" again, then swung it, instantly leaving a deep trench in the ground, burying many of the Iwagakure ninja involved... This was no sharp weapon strike, but a blunt weapon strike.

At this moment, Yu Xian finally struggled to get up. He supported his side with one hand and knelt on the ground with some difficulty, trying to further observe the battlefield situation.

For the newly arrived reinforcements, the smaller number of Konoha ninjas had its advantages. They could quickly grasp the situation of each Konoha ninja. So, given Yugen's miserable state, a slug quickly climbed up his ankle and onto his back.

Then, a burst of vibrant chakra emanated from the slug. As this chakra seeped into Yugen's body, the excruciating pain on his side was quickly relieved, and his internal and external injuries began to heal rapidly.

With the help of top-notch medics, Yu Xian's condition stabilized instantly.

Jiraiya and his two companions arrived at the battlefield, and Yugen subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. At least he didn't have to worry too much about safety now... Well, he was actually a little too happy too soon.

The trio's fighting style is simple and brutal: they aim to annihilate the enemy without deliberately protecting their allies. In other words, as long as they eliminate all the enemies as quickly as possible, their teammates will be safe.

But no matter what, the capable are always given more work, and the task of eliminating the enemy now fell entirely on the trio... Yu Xian was temporarily unable to keep up with the pace, because if she got too close, she would easily be caught up in the giant summoning beast's attack.

Although the toads of Mount Myōboku are friendly units, Hagen is worried that their eyesight might be off.

Based on the current course of the battle, it seems likely that this encounter will end in an overwhelming victory for the Konoha ninja.

However, war is ultimately a dynamic process, and the conclusions drawn by those involved are often isolated and one-sided... To put it simply, how could Iwagakure, which has maintained a high-pressure and aggressive offensive posture, possibly accept defeat?

The reinforcements from Iwagakure arrived, and more Iwagakure reinforcements appeared on the battlefield. They began using combination Earth Release ninjutsu to restrict and attack the giant summoned beasts on the battlefield.

The Konoha ninjas were once again surrounded, and they could not retreat at their leisure... People like Akimichi Torifu and the Third Hokage's personal disciple could not be considered "sunk costs," so Konoha had no choice but to send reinforcements again.

Thus, what started as a skirmish of twenty or thirty people quickly escalated into a large-scale battle involving thousands of people. Soon, both Konoha and Iwagakure had deployed approximately five hundred ninjas each to the battlefield in the Land of Grass... For the current stage of the war, such a battle was already quite exaggerated.

The organization of the entire battle, whether it was Konoha or Iwagakure, was appalling. The two sides' battle lines were intertwined, and the content of the battle was somewhat unbearable to watch. During the twenty years of peace, even if the major ninja villages in the ninja world did not lose their ability to organize large-scale battles, they should at least have a process of relearning and recovery.

The Fourth Shinobi World War was devastating, but the worst is yet to come. The current chaotic battle can be considered a lesson learned.

With the increasing number of ninjas participating in the war, ninjas like Yugen have become almost dispensable.

"Earth Release: Earthquake Core!"

"Earth Release: Earth Flow!"

The Iwagakure ninja used a combined Earth Release ninjutsu to create chaos on the battlefield. After altering the terrain's angle, they used a large-scale Earth Release technique, similar to a mudslide, to wash over the battlefield.

Yu Xian dodged the attack with a series of quick movements, but at this point, he only wanted to ask one question... Where are my teammates?

Not only are his teammates missing, but the slugs on his body have also been deactivated.

There were some Konoha ninjas around Yugen, but they belonged to different combat teams and had basically lost their original organization, barely able to maintain their individual combat status... The bad news was that the situation in Konoha was terrible, but the good news was that Iwagakure was in the same situation, not much better than Konoha.

Yu Xian was breathing heavily. He felt he was about to reach his limit. A ninja was too insignificant on the battlefield. He couldn't change anything in his current state... Didn't you see how hard he was trying to breathe? He was literally living life to the fullest.

At that moment, another Iwagakure ninja charged toward Hagen.

"This is never going to end!"

Yu Xian turned and left, fighting and retreating simultaneously.

The fact that the ninja could employ such a piecemeal tactic, achieving the effect of the Calabash Brothers rescuing their grandfather, is truly remarkable... This battle began at noon, and by then it was nearly dusk, and the sky had completely darkened.

Yu Xian couldn't squeeze any more chakra out of himself, so he fought and retreated, occasionally having to turn around to block the enemy's thrown ninja tools... So overall, he seemed to be running around in a panic. Before he knew it, the surrounding forest changed from sparse to lush, and then into a giant tree that blocked out the sky.

The sound of rain once again filled Yu Xian's ears.

He seemed to have left the battlefield, with only one relentless enemy by his side.

"Damn it, you have nowhere to run!"

"Stop struggling, how much chakra do you have left?"

Hmm? The Iwagakure ninja behind him was rather noisy and seemed agitated; he didn't seem like an experienced ninja.

Yugen really doesn't have much chakra left, and this can't continue indefinitely.

With a thought, he flashed into the shadow of a thick tree trunk in front of him. Just as the enemy from Iwagakure lost sight of him for a short time and hurriedly ran past, Yugen suddenly launched an attack!

He precisely stepped on the enemy's instep with his left foot, grabbed the other's collar with his right hand, and then gathered the last bit of chakra he had squeezed out on his arm, pulling the other's head down and slamming it down like a firecracker. At the same time, his right leg instantly raised his knee!

boom!

The enemy's forehead slammed into Yu Xian's knee, the sudden impact and shock causing the opponent to lose consciousness for a moment.

That wasn't all. Yu Xian gently patted the other person's face with his left hand, then used his wrist to push the other person's body around half a circle, so that the ninja was facing away from him.

After that, Yu Xian did nothing more. He quickly hid on the other side of the tree... because he had just placed his last explosive tag on the other person.

boom!

Fireworks of blood and flesh exploded in the forest, and the enemy made no further move.

Soon, the forest in the rainy night returned to its original "tranquility," and the chaotic yet somewhat rhythmic environmental noise swallowed up all other strange sounds.

Night had completely fallen.
