Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

Click click click —

The cracks multiplied and grew larger, and the sliver of light gradually increased in size.

"You're a monster too."

As Gaara finished speaking, two fists simultaneously struck Gaara's face.

Snapped.

Gaara's defenses crumbled, turning into grains of sand.

"Don't underestimate the ninjas of Konoha."

Shikamaru chuckled, and Gaara was sent flying through the air.

"Look."

Everyone around them burst into laughter.

"Yala yala".

"who!"

Shikamaru was the quickest to react to this sudden sound from the side.

"hiss."

Looking to the side, I saw a guy with a long tongue sticking out slowly walking over.

"it is good!"

Naruto was still celebrating the exhilarating feeling of having just knocked Gaara away when Sasuke noticed what was happening.

"Everyone back off."

Shikamaru stopped even using the Shadow Imitation Technique and immediately ordered everyone to retreat.

"Such keen intuition, isn't it? No wonder he's from the Nara family?"

The visitor stopped in his tracks.

"Kabuto, so you really had something planned."

The people on this side stood there, while Kabuto on Sasuke and Naruto's side began to approach.

"Brother Dou?"

Naruto also turned to look at Kabuto, whose face was grim.

What are you planning?

Sasuke and Shikamaru spoke at the same time.

"Wind Release: Whirlwind Blade".

"Puppetry, a thousand weapons."

Once Temari and Kankuro's restrictions were lifted, they immediately began their attack on the people of Konoha.

"Earth Escape Technique, Earth Flow Wall Technique."

Shikamaru rarely displays his strength; his hand seals are incredibly fast, perfectly blocking these sudden attacks.

At the same time, figures began to emerge from the surrounding area and stand next to the uninvited guest.

"Illusion, the art of blooming flowers."

The cloaked weasel stood in the center of the village and began to form hand seals.

The two Mangekyou Sharingan started spinning, and a Mangekyou Sharingan appeared in the sky above Konoha.

"Itachi—"

Everyone witnessed this scene, and naturally, people like Minato and Kakashi wouldn't fall for such a group illusion.

Orochimaru!

Red Bean, disheveled and exhausted, crawled on the ground, whimpering softly. Around her lay people lying haphazardly; the entrance had been destroyed, and the ground was scorched.

"It's time for Konoha to collapse."

The uninvited guest, wearing a straw hat, spoke in a low voice.

Chapter 329: The War Begins

"Itachi, why you?"

Do you know what doing this means?

Kakashi was the first to arrive at the scene of the incident. Right in the center of the village, Itachi, dressed in a red auspicious cloud-patterned robe, stood there quietly.

"Kakashi-senpai, I understand this very well."

Itachi's voice was very calm, and his expression did not change at all.

Kakashi stared at Itachi and uttered a quiet sentence.

"Where is the Moon Tree?"

"You don't need to understand."

"You are the greatest genius in Konoha's history, and you are his proudest child."

"Copy Ninja Kakashi".

Kakashi and Itachi faced off, while a sharp edge emanated from the side.

Kakashi drew his ninja sword from his waist in an instant and parried to the side.

"As expected, he was a genius before Itachi."

Samehada!

As the chakra began to be absorbed, Kakashi forcefully pushed Kisame away from in front of him.

"Lightning Release: Lightning Blade".

After forming hand seals, Kakashi swung his ninja sword, imbuing it with lightning, and slashed forward.

"Water Escape, Silver Sky Wall."

Kisame was knocked to the ground, and a water jet shot skyward.

The Lightning Blade slash cut through the water barrier and headed straight for Kisame and Itachi.

"That was close."

The two of them jumped to the side together.

"He's White Fang's son and the disciple of the Unkillable Blade, after all. That strike is truly incredible."

Kisame felt a slight numbness in his arm; even though the Raikiri had blocked most of the lightning, the current overflowing from it was still quite good.

"Wind Release: Wind Demon Shuriken".

Itachi drew a much larger Fuma Shuriken, unlike the shuriken he used to use, and threw it. The wind-style chakra swirled around with it, carrying an increasingly fierce edge.

Kakashi didn't continue using chakra; he simply slashed with his sword. But he had clearly underestimated the situation. Itachi's throwing skills were far from simple.

Chakra threads wrapped around the Fuma Shuriken, instantly changing direction as Itachi pulled between his fingers.

Kakashi's attack missed, and he glanced sideways at Itachi.

Of course, Kakashi wasn't without a countermeasure. He loosened and tightened his grip on the ninja sword in an instant.

He easily severed the chakra threads on the Fuma Shuriken.

"Well done, but even you can't handle one against two."

Kisame, carrying Samehada, stood with Itachi, looking at Kakashi who was all alone.

boom!

"Fire escape!"

Looking around, Konoha had already been attacked, and enemies were appearing one after another.

Is this your plan?

"NONONO, this is not part of our plan, we just happened to be doing it on the side."

Kisame shook his finger.

"By the way?"

"That's right, all of this was done by the people of Konoha."

"When the enemy attacks, it will bare its claws; the Blue Beast of Konoha makes its appearance!"

"Come and experience the passionate Konoha whirlwind!"

Kisame and Itachi watched as Guy jumped over from the side.

"What the hell is that?!"

Kai turned around in mid-air and launched a flying kick.

Kisame drew Samehada and took the blow with a single strike.

"Just a mortal body."

Samehada, the famous sword in the ninja world, collided with Guy's leg.

"That's a lie, isn't it?"

Surprisingly, Kai's foot collided with Kisame's, and the two were evenly matched.

"This is the passion of the Azure Beast!"

Kai increased his strength and actually pushed Kisame away.

Kisame was pushed away, and Kai certainly wouldn't let this opportunity pass. He immediately followed up with another kick with his other leg.

Itachi also started to take action; at least his current comrade was being attacked, and it wouldn't do for him to just stand there dumbfounded.

An arm blocked the attack directly. Itachi didn't pick up a kunai or any other sharp weapon; he simply blocked the blow with his arm.

Kisame adjusted his body, and Samehada was already swinging over.
