Warlock Invasion of Naruto.

Kakuzu stared in disbelief: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! The First Hokage is already..."

[Chapter 131. Art is Eternal!]

"This is... Wood Release?!" Sasori's eyes flashed with surprise.

The deeds of the First Hokage are known throughout the ninja world, and all nations have a consistent account of his strength: he was incredibly powerful! Incomparably powerful.

Along with the First Hokage, he is remembered for his unique Wood Release technique.

Throughout the ninja world, all sorts of strange bloodline limits have emerged one after another.

However, only the First Hokage could use Wood Release from beginning to end.

The man in front of me, wearing a spiral mask, actually used the same Wood Release technique as the First Hokage, and its power was astonishing!

boom!

Just as Scorpion was momentarily stunned, Wood Dragon's body bent and coiled into a ball, then suddenly straightened up like a spring and shot towards Scorpion in the sky.

"not good!"

Sasori's expression changed slightly. He quickly controlled the Third Kazekage to rise higher and fly towards a greater height. At the same time, he used the Magnet Release technique to create an even larger sand and iron cube, which was placed in front of him to block the path of the Wood Dragon.

boom--!

Although the giant iron sand cube was smashed open by the wood dragon, Sasori took the opportunity to fly to a higher place. After feeling that he had maintained a safe distance, Sasori looked down and smiled smugly: "Even if you have learned the First Hokage's Wood Release, you cannot escape the limitation of gravity!"

"Can this height be considered flying?" Bai Yu leaped up, and Mu Long, who was landing in mid-air, ducked down and caught him.

'Wood Release: Wood Human Technique!'

Rumble~

The earth trembled.

A wood-style giant, nearly 100 meters tall, was crouching on the ground.

The wooden dragon, originally over thirty meters long, resembled a scarf wrapped around the neck of the Wood Release giant, while Bai Yu stood atop the wooden dragon's head, gazing at Sasori not far above.

"This...this..." Kakuzu's mouth dropped open, his expression somewhat bewildered. He had been defeated by the First Hokage's Wood Clone Technique back then, and his knowledge of the power of Wood Release was limited to legends. For the First Hokage, an opponent like him would probably only need to use a Wood Clone Technique.

"How could this be... Oh no!" Scorpion's smile froze, and the hundred-meter-tall giant suddenly pushed off the ground, leaping into the sky.

boom!

With a loud bang, the Wood Release giant's body shot towards Sasori.

Iron sand attack!

Sand and Iron Boundary Law!

Iron sand rain!

Sasori controlled the Third Kazekage's puppet, continuously unleashing various Magnet Release ninjutsu. However, the Wood Release giant simply waved its hand and blocked them all. The massive sand and iron cube was like a building block that a child could easily move in the Wood Release giant's hand, and then it was thrown away.

Iron Sand Skywing!

The puppet rapidly expanded its sand-iron wings and flapped them to fly higher. However, faced with the explosive speed of the Wood Release giant, it didn't have time to rise higher before being slapped and falling straight down, creating a large crater in the ground.

As the Wood Release giant and Wood Dragon fell from the sky, Bai Yu released both techniques to prevent the commotion from becoming too great.

If this weren't deep in the mountains, it would probably attract a lot of attention.

Of course, the most important reason is that these two techniques consume an enormous amount of chakra, leaving less than 30% of the chakra in this materialized body.

It seems I need to find a way to increase the chakra of this avatar.

Otherwise, the true power of Wood Release cannot be unleashed.

The wooden puppet technique he just used was probably not even as good as the wooden puppet that the white creature used that day.

Not to mention, he couldn't possibly compete with the First Hokage.

It seems that there is still a long way to go before Wood Release can be used to achieve the same level of power as the First Hokage.

After landing on the ground, Bai Yu arrived at the edge of the crater created by the scorpion's body. Looking at the motionless scorpion in the crater, he said in a calm tone, "Stop pretending. Your body has probably been modified as well. One slap won't kill you!"

Click!

Suddenly, the scorpion's body in the pit made a sound like a puppet moving its joints. Then, the scorpion's broken body was pieced back together, and it crawled out of the pit.

Beneath him, the Third Kazekage's puppet remained motionless in the center of the crater.

At this moment, Kakuzu arrived beside Shiraha, preparing to attack Sasori.

"Wait a minute," Bai Yu suddenly said.

Kakuzu paused. If it were before, he would naturally ignore Bai Yu, but the situation was different now.

After witnessing Hakuba's terrifying Wood Release technique, Kakuzu's mindset underwent some changes.

Even if he wasn't the First Hokage, he's still inextricably linked to the First Hokage.

He was able to live to be over eighty years old thanks to the Earth Grudge Fear technique. Could the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, who was known as the God of Shinobi, really have died from his injuries after his great battle with Madara Uchiha?

Couldn't the First Hokage have faked his death?

Although the possibility is very low, Kakuzu doesn't want to take the gamble.

At least for now, 'Kodama' is an ally, not an enemy, so Kakuzu doesn't want to provoke him.

After seeing Kakuzu stop, Bai Yu looked at Sasori beside him, whose hand was controlling the Third Kazekage puppet in the pit.

"Scorpion, I advise you not to act rashly. Our patience is also limited."

Scorpion paused, looked at Bai Yu, and asked, "What exactly is your purpose?"

"At first, we just wanted your head, after all, it's worth 1000 million taels of silver, which is no small matter. But now I've changed my mind, you can obviously create greater value if you're alive."

I now formally invite you to join our 'Infinite Ring' organization and become one of us.

Bai Yu said.

"The Infinite Ring?" Sasori was taken aback. "I've never heard of such an organization in the ninja world. With your strength, such an organization should be quite well-known."

Bai Yu: "We are a newly established organization that has not yet attracted the attention of major powers. In addition, there are only four core members, including the leader and ourselves."

"A new organization?" Scorpion fell silent, clearly contemplating the current situation. He had no interest in joining a new organization; he didn't need companions, nor did he want to be bound by them. However, this organization was obviously quite powerful, and he didn't have much of a choice in the current situation.

"Who is the leader of this organization? Compared to you, who is stronger?"

After a moment of silence, Scorpion asked.

“Once you join the organization, you’ll eventually meet the leader. The ‘Dragon King’ is far more powerful than me,” Bai Yu said calmly.

Kakuzu's eyes narrowed, but considering that Bai Yu had recently defeated the Third Raikage in a direct battle, it seemed that what Kodama said made sense.

However, in Kakuzu's opinion, Kodama did not seem to have used his full strength in the battle just now, and his true strength was definitely stronger.

"Much stronger than you?!" Scorpion's expression changed in surprise, his heart filled with doubt and uncertainty.

Even though he turned the Third Kazekage, the strongest Kazekage in history, into a puppet, he was still suppressed by the masked man in front of him. And the "Dragon King" is even stronger?!

"What is the purpose of your organization?" Scorpion couldn't help but ask.

Bai Yu: "The first stage is accumulating funds, and the second stage is establishing a nation. Of course, the organization's ultimate goal is to pursue eternity!"

"Pursue eternity!" Scorpion's eyes lit up.

Indeed, only eternal life has value, and art is eternal!

I never expected that the leader of the Infinite Rings organization would be such a person of taste.

Thinking of this, Scorpion asked, "Can I refuse to join?"

Bai Yu chuckled lightly and countered with, "What do you think?"

“Okay, then I’ll join the organization,” Scorpion nodded.

"Welcome," Bai Yu said with a smile. "From now on, your code name will be 'Lu Ban'!"

"Lu Ban?"

[Chapter 132. The Seven Ninja Swordsmen x The Six Ninja Swordsmen √]

October of Konoha 47.

The situation in the Third Shinobi World War underwent a dramatic change.

First, a few months ago, Konoha's medical ninja Yagami Hakuha suppressed the Third Raikage in a direct battle, causing Kumogakure to retreat and announce a ceasefire with Konoha.

Afterwards, Konoha suddenly announced that Kushina Uzumaki, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, and Shiraha Yagami would leave Konoha and go to the ruins of the Land of Whirlpools to rebuild the Uzumaki clan. At the same time, they began to recruit the remnants of the Uzumaki clan throughout the entire ninja world.

Those who voluntarily send the remnants of the Uzumaki clan to the Land of Whirlpools will become friends of the Uzumaki clan and gain their friendship.

Before the Land of Whirlpools was destroyed, the friendship among the Uzumaki clan was indeed of great significance.

However, after the Land of Whirlpools was destroyed, it became worthless.

However, the situation is different now. The rebuilt Uzumaki clan is not as strong as before, but with Kushina and Shiraha, two top-tier Kage-level powerhouses, in charge, their overall strength is actually stronger than before.

The current Uzumaki clan is just an empty shell, but precisely because of this, no one dares to provoke them easily.

Everyone knows what it means to have two top-tier Kage-level powerhouses acting without any scruples.

Less than a month after Kushina and Shiraha rebuilt the Uzumaki clan, Orochimaru on the western front used twenty Jonin as bait to lure the Sunagakure forces guarding Kikyo Castle into attacking. In the end, they defeated the enemy with fewer troops, annihilating thousands of Sunagakure ninjas and recapturing Kikyo Castle in one fell swoop.

Thus, Konoha, which was originally caught in a four-front war, has now defeated both Kumogakure and Sunagakure.

Konoha only needs to focus on dealing with Iwagakure and Kirigakure now.

......

boom!

boom!

boom!

A huge explosion rang out in the forest, and flames shot into the sky.
