Naruto: My setting is above yours.

The Iwa ninja who recognized Genma suddenly became shrill: "It's Konoha's Ranga!"

"That guy has appeared on the battlefield!"

"Report this to Lord Red Earth immediately!"

The scream immediately attracted the attention of others.

"Konoha's Ranga, the guy who fought five hundred men single-handedly?"

"The master of Wood Release techniques, wasn't he supposed to be in Konoha Village according to the intelligence?"

"This guy showed up alone, is he going to take us on by himself again? Has he gone mad?"

The Iwa ninja who were observing nearby were shocked, and the information spread rapidly, causing a stir among many Iwa ninja.

In Iwagakure, Konoha's Ranga and Genma of the Wind are extremely well-known.

He fought against five hundred men single-handedly and nearly crushed them!

Even those who participated in the last battle felt a cold sweat break out and their legs cramp when they heard the name Konoha Ranga again.

He's here again!

He came alone again!

……

Soon, Red Earth, the commander of Iwagakure, arrived at the forefront of the battlefield and landed on a towering stone pillar.

On his left and right were two other figures, namely Rōshi, the Jinchūriki of the Four-Tails, and Han, the Jinchūriki of the Five-Tails.

"Is it really just one person?"

Old Purple curiously observed the figure in the distance: "I heard that he defeated the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki and even caused the Third Raikage to lose an arm, so he dared to face us alone?"

"Heh, while I admit he's very strong, I have to say, this guy is incredibly arrogant!"

"Hand this guy over to me!"

Kurotsuchi frowned: "Don't be careless. Since he was able to defeat the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki and the Third Raikage, this guy's strength is definitely not to be underestimated. You are no match for him."

Upon hearing this, Lao Zi immediately showed his displeasure.

At this moment, the man wearing a red cloak and a red mask spoke up: "Perhaps his goal is the two of us."

"If one of us can hold us off, then it will be very difficult to deal with Konoha's White Fang and Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin."

Old Zi frowned and remained silent.

Hongtu's face darkened, and he slowly nodded: "That's true."

"We absolutely cannot let Konoha succeed!"

Looking at the Konoha ninjas at the edge of the forest in the distance, Kurenai's eyes turned cold: "Hmph, Konoha's Ranga, last time he fought five hundred of our Iwagakure ninjas by himself, and this time he dares to fight alone again, then let's grant his wish."

"Old Purple, Han, I will personally lead the team to besiege this Konoha Ranga first."

"You will lead your team to attack Konoha from the left and right."

Old Zi nodded slowly, but his words were unpleasant: "No problem, but don't let me down."

Hongtu ignored Lao Zi's foul mouth and jumped down.

Soon, the Iwa ninja began to change.

The advancing troops began to split up.

One group headed straight for the Wind-Riding Black Horse, while the other two groups went to the left and right, continuing towards the Konoha army.

It's like a great river suddenly splitting into three streams.

The middle group, though the smallest, still had over six hundred members.

However, the entire Iwa ninja army actually only numbered a little over two thousand.

Genma naturally saw clearly what the Iwa ninja were doing.

This is a perfectly normal response.

But he won't let the Iwa ninja have their way.

With a raised hand seal, Xuanma unleashed his spirit communication technique.

bang bang bang~

Three plumes of smoke exploded, and he summoned three shadow clones from Konoha.

Moreover, these three Wood Release clones are different from the previous ones.

When they refine Wood Release chakra, they simultaneously absorb natural energy, namely, the ratio of spiritual power, plant cell power, and natural energy is 1:1:1.

It's Sage Art: Wood Release!

After the three clones appeared, two of them broke through the air and left, one on the left and one on the right, quickly blocking the two groups of Iwa ninja armies from advancing.

Behind them, the Konoha army was in turmoil.

The Jonin and Chunin leading the team couldn't help but look at Jiraiya, who was in charge.

Just watch like that?

There are two thousand Iwa ninja, there's no way one person could stop them, right?

Jiraiya stared intently at the Wind-Riding Horse on the battlefield, resisting the urge to order a change in plans.

On the other side, Hongtu, who was leading the charge, frowned slightly when he saw Yufeng Xuanma split into two.

Is it really possible for one person to stop them all?

Is this guy crazy?

Have they become so arrogant?

Furthermore, how could those people in Konoha allow him to do this?

Hongtu couldn't understand it, but he didn't change his plans because of it. Instead, he ordered the pace to be accelerated.

When they were less than 300 meters away from the Wind-Riding Mystic Horse, Hongtu and his team stopped and rapidly formed hand seals.

The others split into two groups, one on the left and one on the right.

On the large rock, the third shadow clone beside Genma dissipated, and the massive Wood Release Sage Technique chakra returned to his main body.

Instantly, a bluish eyeshadow appeared under Xuanma's eyelids.

Snapped!

Xuanma forms the Si Mudra with both hands.

Almost simultaneously, the other two shadow clones also formed their own hand seals.

A massive amount of Wood Release Sage Chakra was simultaneously injected into the ground.

Wood Release: Advent of the Tree World!

Meanwhile, Hongtu on the opposite side led his men to complete the hand seals and placed their palms on the ground.

Click!

The earth cracked open and rapidly extended forward, then quickly separated, the cracks spreading swiftly around the spot where Xuanma stood.

Immediately following, a massive earthquake shook the ground, and the area within a 10-meter radius where Xuanma stood began to sink.

But at this moment, thick vines also sprang up from the ground.

The vines grew and intertwined like snakes, and thick vines supported Xuanma's feet, lifting him away from the sinking ground.

Kurotsuchi's pupils contracted as she completed the technique: "Wood Release!"

A large amount of vines surged out from the gap created by their earth-style ninjutsu, spreading rapidly and covering the sky like a tidal wave.

Not only in front of them, but also in front of two other Iwa ninja armies, countless vines rose from the ground and grew rapidly, covering the barren land.

The three waves of Wood Release techniques quickly connected, leaving the numerous Iwa ninja with only the sight of vines that snaked and roared towards them.

This made them stop in their tracks and stare in disbelief.

On the other side, many Konoha ninjas were equally dumbfounded.

They could no longer see the Iwa ninjas; their vision was completely obscured by Genma's Wood Release.

"It's...too big, isn't it?"

"Is this the First Hokage's Wood Release technique? It's... completely on a different level!"

"No wonder he dared to go alone, it's unbelievable!"

Jiraiya was also stunned.

The scale is truly astonishing, spanning at least several kilometers.

Seeing the vines and trees sweeping towards him, Hongtu snapped out of his daze and shouted, "Use earth barriers!"

The Iwa ninja behind Kurotsuchi began forming hand seals and casting spells.

Not only them, but the other Iwa ninja armies on both sides, upon seeing the approaching Fujiki, instinctively created earthen barriers as well.

In an instant, a large number of stone walls rose from the ground, forming more than a dozen layers that stretched across the entire battlefield, blocking the tide of wooden vines.

However, immediately afterward, accompanied by a roar, the stone wall was easily pierced by thick vines and then submerged.

"Oh no, the earthen barrier is completely ineffective!"

Hongtu's expression changed slightly, and he immediately shouted, "Fire Release!"

"Send forward a ninja who knows Fire Release and Wind Release."

"Also, use detonating tags!"

The order was quickly relayed, and the Iwa ninjas who knew Fire Release and Wind Release immediately moved forward to gather, while the Iwa ninjas in front had already begun to use explosive tags.

However, they did not directly use kunai to throw the explosive tags.

Instead, they attached the detonating tags to the earthen barrier.

When the vine pierced through the earthen barrier, the explosive charge was detonated.

Rumble!
