Naruto: Traveling Through Time Starting with Seizing the Dragon Vein

"Hehehe... So irritable right from the start, old man Onoki."

On the throne of flesh and blood, Orochimaru smiled coldly.

Countless synthetic chimeras with fleshy wings fearlessly charged towards the white light of Dust Release, while Orochimaru took the opportunity to escape.

Meanwhile, in the skies above the Land of Wind.

The main guns of the [Electromagnetic Airship] were firing at full power! Thick, dark blue plasma beams stretched for hundreds of miles, weaving a net of death across the sky in an attempt to stop the oncoming [Sun Kingdom] forces.

"Six Paths: Divine Raid!"

Nagato's purple Rinnegan erupted with a majestic, cold light, and a terrifying repulsive force transformed into an insurmountable wall of sighs, forcefully deflecting the light spear into outer space.

Luo Sha's strategy, however, was extremely clear.

Fight and retreat simultaneously, using space to buy time for the mechanical units to develop!

Not only these four factions, but even the [Lightning Release Sage Legion], which has been waging guerrilla warfare all over the world, and the [Undead Konoha], which is hiding in the Kamui Space, were inevitably drawn into the aftermath of this chaotic battle, and could only secretly "steal" some marginal points in the cracks.

Various "rule-level" composite ninjutsu, electromagnetic cannons, and flesh-and-blood behemoths collide wildly on the land of the ninja world!

The mountains were leveled, and the rivers were evaporated.

The entire plane's sky was dyed a dazzling yet deadly five-colored hue, as if the end of the world had arrived.

……

"It's madness... This world has gone completely mad..."

Inside the underground temple of Konoha, Shimura Danzo stared intently at the battle report, his single eye filled with panic.

On the holographic map, the dots that originally represented his "rule" were being extinguished in large swaths amidst the aftershocks of the battles between the various factions.

His proud ambition of "ruling the world" was, at this moment, ruthlessly trampled on by this group of "fourth natural disasters".

The extreme sense of loss left this militaristic Konoha dictator depressed for three whole days.

For three days, he watched helplessly as his border defenses were torn to shreds and heard reports of casualties coming from all over the country, yet he didn't even have the courage to send troops to provide support.

However, three days later, when Danzo stood in front of the holographic map again, the panic in his eyes had subsided, replaced by a kind of madness.

"No... I haven't lost yet!"

Danzo clenched his cane tightly, his knuckles turning white.

Who is he?

He is Shimura Danzo!

He was a man who, through forbearance and scheming, stepped over Hiruzen, and even the coffins of the First and Second Hokage, to finally reign supreme in the ninja world!

How could he admit defeat so easily?

Of course, what comforted Danzo the most was that he didn't seem to be the weakest link among so many forces.

The first group of [Undead Konoha] to arrive, even with access to advanced information from the multiverse, were still overwhelmed by his cursed clone army in direct combat and could only flee in disarray!

What does this prove?

People are most afraid of making comparisons, but what if you find yourself to be the one with the advantage when you make comparisons?

This directly proves that his past actions were absolutely correct!

Danzo's "Will of Fire" and the militaristic Konoha he led truly surpassed the Konoha of that parallel universe in terms of foundation and strength!

Thinking of this, Danzo's mood strangely improved a bit, and his vanity, which had been shattered by the monster from another world, was once again satisfied.

"Although these monsters are powerful, after they arrived, they deliberately avoided the core area of ​​the Land of Fire, and none of them chose to attack Konoha directly."

Danzo's one eye narrowed into a slit, gleaming with the cunning of an old fox.

"This shows that they also have reservations, either about my trump cards or about Lord Ban's power!"

"As long as they don't dare to attack Konoha, my forces will still have value in this great battle!"

Looking at the four major forces locked in a fierce battle on the map, a sinister plan to "drive away one wolf to devour another" gradually took shape in Danzo's mind.

If handled properly, he could definitely get a share of the spoils in this chaotic battle!

……

And at the highest point of the Valley of the End.

Madara Uchiha crossed his arms, facing the fierce winds blowing from afar, his crimson Rinne Sharingan with nine tomoe eyes surveying the scene with great interest.

Although these four factions are powerful and their destructive force is devastating, their strength is based on "collective," "formation," and "technology" that he has not yet fully understood.

As a perfect being who has entered the Six Paths realm, as long as he doesn't foolishly get surrounded by hundreds of thousands of people or try to withstand the bombardment that "gathers the power of the entire world", he can survive.

If he wants to fight alone, or if he wants to leave, this group of people can't stop him at all!

Chapter 308 You overestimate yourself, Danzo

On the fifth day after the arrival of the four factions.

Through the Root organization, Shimura Danzo sent letters of intent to form alliances to the command centers of these four major camps.

In Danzo's calculations, he controlled the world's most comprehensive intelligence network and local resources, and this "unignorable local force" would definitely become a highly sought-after asset.

However, reality struck him like a resounding slap across the face!

The first to send back a message was from [Sand Hidden - Magnetic Storm Mech Time and Space].

When Danzo's projection appeared on the flagship screen of the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, Rasa didn't hesitate and immediately started cursing:

"Old man, stay away from me!"

Next up is [Yan Yin · Yang Xian Chen Dun Shi Kong].

The Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, floated in mid-air, patiently listening to Danzo's clichéd rhetoric about the "Will of Fire" and the "overall vision of the ninja world," before picking his ear.

"Danzo, Danzo, no matter which time or space you are in, your tricks of scheming in the gutter are still disgusting. We don't need a piece of trash like you who only drags us down."

As for the Sun Kingdom faction, it doesn't even exist.

Three consecutive setbacks pushed Danzo to the brink of mental collapse.

But he still held onto a last glimmer of hope.

He made his final communication request to [Orochimaru - Flesh and Blood Ascension Time and Space].

Orochimaru!

When Danzo saw the familiar face in the holographic projection, he took a deep breath.

"In my world, you and I were once the best collaborators! I even provided you with countless test subjects and covered up so many traces for you!"

Danzo stared intently at Orochimaru's golden vertical pupils: "You're a smart man, you should understand my value! If you and I join forces, my cursed seal clone army, combined with your biotechnology, will be enough to make us invincible in this chaotic battle!"

"Hehehe..."

Orochimaru leaned lazily against the throne, letting out a chilling chuckle.

"Lord Danzo, have you been underground for too long? Has your brain completely rotted away?"

Orochimaru rested his chin on one hand, and his gaze, which seemed to look at Danzo as if he were looking at a lowly experimental subject, made Danzo tremble all over.

"Cooperation? What do you have to offer me for cooperation? Intelligence? Combat power? Or resources?"

Orochimaru scoffed, "Your Root army, which you are so proud of, is nothing but a bunch of defective products in my eyes. Your laughable trump cards are of no value to me."

"Orochimaru! You're too arrogant!"

Danzo finally reached his breaking point.

It's one thing for the other worlds to reject him, but why does Orochimaru have the right to be so condescending and belittle him?!

"You invaders from another world, what gives you the right to look down on me like this?!"

Danzo, leaning on his cane, roared and howled:

"The Leaf Village I lead is the strongest in this world!"

"Even the first wave of [Undead Leaf Village] that descended were routed like stray dogs before my Root army! I can defeat them, so why do you think I'm worthless?!"

Danzo attempted to salvage his last shred of self-respect by claiming that he had "defeated" the first batch of players.

However, upon hearing this, Orochimaru's mocking expression deepened.

He couldn't help but clutch his stomach and let out a soft, pleased chuckle.

Based on their observations of the battle over the past few days, Orochimaru, Rasa, Onoki, Nagato, and other commanders had already reached a conclusion.

The first wave of "Undead Konoha" that descended upon this world had no real control over it. They were simply using Danzo, the local tyrant, as a shield to wage guerrilla warfare.

"You think too highly of yourself, Danzo."

Orochimaru suppressed his smile and looked at the old man with pity.

"Why do you think we didn't raze your Hokage Building to the ground the moment our four factions arrived?"

"Is it because you're afraid of my strength? Don't dream about it."

Orochimaru directly revealed the truth:

"In our eyes, you and your root army are nothing more than animals that can be wiped off the map at any time. The reason we haven't touched you is because what we truly fear is each other!"

"If anyone attacks you first and wastes even a little bit of their troops and energy, they will definitely be stabbed in the back by the other three factions. We keep you around just to annoy those rats that are running around everywhere, nothing more."

"You..." Danzo's one eye shrank abruptly, and his face turned deathly pale.

"And do you think that by defeating them, you've proven the correctness of your 'Will of Fire'?"

Orochimaru shook his head, his tone full of mockery:

"You have no idea what you're facing."

"That [Undead Konoha] that you chased all over the place is just a post-apocalyptic wasteland that was brutally destroyed by Madara Uchiha. There are hardly any survivors left, and they are struggling to survive only because of the souls of the dead in the Pure Land."

"They are the world with the weakest foundation among all the participating worlds. I admire their willpower to have made it this far... and you, you're actually gloating over just forcing these refugees to retreat?"

"The weakest... Konoha?"

Upon hearing this, Danzo was struck dumb, frozen in place.

His opponents, whom he thought could prove the correctness of the "Will of Fire," turned out to be just the weakest group in other people's eyes?
