Warlock Invasion of Naruto.

"If you all go together, none of you will escape. You guys go ahead, the six of us will buy you some time!"

Mimura Yoru had an expression of resignation to her fate.

brush!

At this moment, a tall young man suddenly appeared in the trench. It was none other than Minato Namikaze, who had fought alongside Jiraiya to repel the Iwagakure army on the main battlefield.

Minato Namikaze said, "It seems I'm not too late."

"Minato, you've finally arrived!" Mimura Yoru asked hurriedly, "How's the main battle going?"

"Jiraiya-sensei and I have already defeated the enemy, which is why we were able to come and support you."

Minato Namikaze explained.

How many enemy troops are there now?

Yingren activated his Byakugan and said, "There are 61 people left. Based on their chakra levels, there are 15 Jonin, 34 Chunin, and the rest are Genin. Our chakra is almost depleted. My suggestion is to retreat first, since we have already won the main battle anyway."

"Only 61 people left? I understand." Minato Namikaze nodded, put down the backpack on his back, and then took out all the ninja tools from the ninja tool bag and sealing scroll.

His kunai was specially made, resembling the shape of a trident.

Bai Yu sensed a special chakra fluctuation on it.

"What exactly is the key to not being able to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique?" Bai Yu wondered to himself, realizing that he should start with Minato Namikaze.

Minato Namikaze neatly arranged over a hundred specially made kunai on the ground, pointing to the Iwagakure base opposite him and saying:

"Please throw all these kunai at the enemy's position, and leave the rest to me!"

"Isn't this a bit too reckless? Now that the war has been won, there's no need for unnecessary sacrifices."

A Jonin standing nearby couldn't help but speak up. As a newly promoted Jonin, he had heard of Minato Namikaze, the Yellow Flash, but had never fought alongside him.

Unless it's the Third Hokage, one of the Legendary Sannin, or a powerful figure like Shiraha or Kushina, it's simply reckless for one person to take on a dozen Jonin and thirty Chunin.

"Do as he says! Then you'll witness the Golden Flash in battle."

Mimura Yoru said in a deep voice.

"The enemy is most concentrated in the northeast, at the two o'clock position!" the Englishman warned.

Upon hearing this, the people in the trenches threw Minato Namikaze's kunai toward the opposite position.

At this moment, the Iwagakure ninjas who were approaching the trench were all stunned when they saw the kunai suddenly shooting towards them.

Everyone dodged and avoided the kunai that was thrown so lightly.

The leader of the Jonin on the Iwagakure side was Higashi Shijin, an elite Jonin from Iwagakure. When he saw the trident kunai reflecting a cold light in the setting sun, his expression suddenly changed.

"This is... Oh no! It's a golden flash! Scatter!"

No sooner had Dong Siren finished speaking than a scream of agony came from his companion beside him.

"what!"

"what!"

The man in the east felt a blur before his eyes, and then suddenly felt a sharp pain in his neck.

The screams of Iwagakure ninja echoed continuously from outside the trenches, with most of the screams occurring almost simultaneously.

Death can happen in an instant.

Bai Yu looked at Minato Namikaze, who was standing in the crowd, and his gaze sharpened slightly.

Is this the improved Flying Thunder God Technique?

That's truly amazing.

No wonder he earned the title of Golden Flash!

"This speed involves spatial abilities, which even I cannot achieve. I'm afraid only Kushina could do it using the Nine-Tails Chakra Mode."

Bai Yu sensed a threat.

Minato Namikaze's speed is just too fast.

In a direct confrontation, Shiraha would have to activate the "Demonized Scales" and use the "Crimson Dragon Armor" to protect himself from Minato Namikaze's unpredictable attacks.

Of course, since Bai Yu is currently operating in the shadows, there are many ways for him to kill Minato Namikaze.

Many spells are suitable for surprise attacks.

Speaking of which, he had a pretty good relationship with Minato Namikaze when they were at the Ninja Academy.

Now, due to the butterfly effect following Bai Yu's appearance, it's uncertain whether he can still become the Fourth Hokage.

Kushina has already left Konoha with him to establish the Uzumaki clan in the Land of Whirlpools, so the Nine-Tails will no longer go out of control. If Minato Namikaze hadn't died, the original storyline would have changed drastically.

However, Bai Yu doesn't care about that now. After all, he was in World War II more than 30 years before the start of the story. He doesn't care how the story changes afterward. As long as he is careful and keeps strengthening himself, he can cope with any changes.

In the current ninja world, everyone only knows that he and Kushina possess peak combat power comparable to the Third Raikage, but they don't know that Bai Yu's true identity is not a ninja, but a spirit summoner, and that Kushina didn't even make good use of one-tenth of the Nine-Tails' chakra.

"Is this... the Golden Flash?"

At this moment, the remaining ninjas in the trenches all stared wide-eyed, their mouths involuntarily agape.

At this speed, against a normal ninja, it would be like cutting melons and vegetables.

......

Jiraiya won the main force of Iwagakure with his victory on the front lines, while Minato Namikaze used the Flying Thunder God Technique to instantly kill dozens of Iwagakure ninjas, including several Jonin. He demonstrated the overwhelming power of the Flying Thunder God Technique against non-Kage level opponents, instantly making him famous throughout the ninja world and his reputation even surpassed that of the Sannin.

Kakashi and his team also successfully destroyed the Kannabi Bridge behind enemy lines.

The only price paid was the death of Chunin Uchiha Obito.

However, the information brought back by Kakashi and Rin Nohara was of great concern to Shiraha.

Obito died in the Land of Grass, and according to the map, Madara was hiding nearby.

The idea that Obito was killed by a boulder falling after the cave collapsed just doesn't make sense.

Is it really such a coincidence?

"If Madara Uchiha wants to cause trouble, he will probably need pawns. Clan members are the easiest to deceive, but Obito is just an ordinary Chunin, so he shouldn't have much use, right? I'm probably overthinking it."

On the way back, Bai Yu kept thinking about this matter. Because he was wary of the Uchiha, he naturally wouldn't go to the cave where Obito 'died' to find out, but he always felt that things were not that simple.

"Obito loves Rin so much, if he's not dead, he'll definitely come back to find her. The fact that he survived being hit by a boulder must be related to Madara. In other words, as long as we keep a close eye on Rin, if Obito really shows up, we'll have a way to find out Madara's purpose from him!"

Bai Yu's eyes suddenly lit up as he figured out the situation.

[Chapter 140: The Illusionary God of Civil War]

Konoha Village.

Next to the Hokage's office, in the high-level conference room, four high-ranking officials of Konoha, along with a group of Jonin, were gathered.

"We'll agree to a ceasefire with Iwagakure! But you must agree to our conditions!"

"Exactly! After paying such a huge price, are we just going to let them go so easily?!"

"If the fighting continues, the village can't hold out any longer!"

"If we don't give Iwagakure a good beating now, we'll have to face the Fourth Shinobi World War sooner or later!"

"I support fighting again!"

"We must defeat Iwagakure!"

"If Iwagakure won't pay compensation, then let's fight!"

The crowd was abuzz with discussion, with the pro-war faction displaying a fierce momentum.

The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, remained silent, his face ashen.

Danzo chuckled inwardly, but remained outwardly calm.

Since Jiraiya and Minato Namikaze repelled the Iwagakure army on the main battlefield of the Northwest Front, Minato's team successfully destroyed the Kannabi Bridge, and the Iwagakure army suffered heavy losses. Finally, they withdrew from the Land of Grass and returned to the Land of Earth.

Subsequently, in response to the ceasefire agreement offered by Konoha, the Third Tsuchikage of Iwagakure, Onoki, agreed to the ceasefire, but Iwagakure would not pay reparations to Konoha as the defeated party.

Some ninja clans that suffered heavy losses in the war expressed strong dissatisfaction with this, and many Jonin disagreed with Iwagakure's conditions.

If it were in the early or middle stages of a war, as long as Iwagakure was willing to cease hostilities, the vast majority of people would certainly be willing to do so, even if it meant giving up some benefits.

After all, in the early and middle stages of the Third Shinobi World War, Konoha was surrounded by enemies on all sides and faced the siege of the four great ninja villages. Its combat strength was stretched thin. If it weren't for Kushina and Shiraha repelling the Third Raikage, this war would have gone on for who knows how long.

However, after the Cloud Village withdrew its troops and Orochimaru defeated the Sand Village and recaptured Kikyo Castle, the situation instantly reversed.

Konoha is now fully capable of focusing all its efforts on dealing with Iwagakure.

Admittedly, some conservatives are right. Konoha suffered heavy losses in this war, and continuing the war delayed its recovery.

But for the pro-war faction, so many of their comrades and clansmen had died. If they couldn't get some compensation, wouldn't their clansmen have died in vain?

Training ninjas requires resources and money!

Is it generated for love?

Konoha suffered heavy losses, and other villages also suffered significant losses. If Konoha is now determined to continue fighting Iwagakure, Iwagakure will definitely be no match for them. If it comes down to a single village, no ninja village can stand against Konoha.

After all, the Hyuga and Uchiha clans on the eastern front had joined forces to repel Kirigakure, and it was only a matter of time before Kirigakure was completely defeated.

“I understand everyone’s thoughts, but the village simply cannot continue fighting, so we have no choice but to accept Iwagakure’s conditions.” Hiruzen Sarutobi looked apologetically at everyone present. The risk of fighting again was too great, so he chose the safest path.

“If we don’t continue to deplete Iwagakure’s forces now, they will inevitably come back sooner or later. In every Shinobi World War, it was Sunagakure and Iwagakure who led the charge. Some time ago, Sunagakure proposed an alliance with our village, and you, Third Hokage, agreed not to pay reparations because Sunagakure was too poor to afford it. But the reparations we demand, Iwagakure will definitely be able to provide. I absolutely do not agree to a ceasefire like this!”

The former Senju clan elder said in a deep voice, expressing his outrage at Hiruzen Sarutobi's actions. In this war, nearly half of the former Senju clan's ninjas were killed or wounded, and with the addition of ninjas who volunteered to participate in the Wood Release experiments, the elite of the former Senju clan were almost wiped out.

If it weren't for Nawaki's regeneration of his severed limbs and awakening of the power of Wood Release, the Senju clan would have been extinct.

"If we were to fight again, I would be the first to go to the battlefield!" Nawaki said. Since he awakened the power of Wood Release, his strength has increased by leaps and bounds, and he is now close to the Kage level.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed helplessly, not knowing what to do.

At this moment, Minato Namikaze spoke up, "Everyone, the Third Hokage also has his reasons. If we continue to fight against Iwagakure, then we will have to lead our army into the Land of Earth."

The terrain there is rugged, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. In a foreign land, and with the enemy having the advantage of terrain, our ninjas will not be able to gain any advantage.

Once a protracted war breaks out, logistical support becomes a huge problem.
