From Hokage to Visionary

Being knocked away by a mere human made the Nine-Tailed Fox feel deeply humiliated. It roared and growled, and its huge body burst out with amazing power like a mountain, trying to crush the skinny old man who dared to stand in its way.

Considering the chakra problem, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not choose to use ninjutsu, but the most direct and effective physical technique.

“Ruyi Stick·Swift Wind!”

The Vajra Ruyi Stick in Sarutobi Hiruzen's hands can be transformed into infinite forms, and its changes in length make it difficult to guard against.

Moreover, the Vajra Ruyi Stick, which was already heavy, was even more powerful with the help of his natural strength. Especially when it was hit by the tail of the stick, the Nine-Tailed Fox screamed in agony.

Although his aging body made Sarutobi Hiruzen feel exhausted, he still gritted his teeth and persevered.

The heavy Vajra Ruyi Stick in his hand seemed to become much lighter, and it cast shadows of the stick all over the sky. The heavy and violent attack was like an endless rainstorm. The attack even suppressed the mad Nine-Tailed Fox for a while, making the latter roar continuously.

He had made many wrong decisions and had used unfair political means to persecute and oppress many people, but from beginning to end, his original intention had never changed, which was to make Konoha stronger.

Looking back today, Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly realized that his entire life was a joke.

Not only did Konoha fail to become stronger, but it declined in his hands. He watched generations of young people die, and the disciples he taught were also expelled from the village. His most trusted deputy and companion turned out to be a spy who had been hidden for many years. Looking back on the rest of his life, it seemed like a microcosm of countless failures.

But at least now, at this moment, at this second, he is not a loser, but the 'shadow' who protects Konoha!

"Nine-Tails, as long as I, Sarutobi Hiruzen, am still alive."

Sarutobi Hiruzen held the Diamond Ruyi Staff in his hand, his eyes bloodshot, and stood on the broken outer wall of Konoha like a god of war: "Today, you will never set foot in Konoha!"

Chapter 254: Konoha has no martial ethics, Obito wins the mixed doubles

Roar--! ! !

The atmosphere vibrated resonantly, like ripples on the calm surface of water.

The huge body blocked the moonlight, casting a slanting shadow and giving people an almost suffocating feeling of oppression.

The nine-tailed demon fox lowered its center of gravity. Deep in its narrow and long pupils, two streaks of scarlet light were dotted, and three blood-colored magatama were clearly visible. The cruel, fierce, and violent aura from the top of the food chain was like a fierce tsunami, madly impacting Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind.

"Is that the shape of the Sharingan?"

It was not until this moment that Sarutobi Hiruzen noticed the magatama in the Nine-Tails' pupils, and it caused a storm in his heart.

Suddenly, he felt as if he was hit by a huge hammer. His head buzzed and a terrible guess flashed through his mind: "Could it be that the Uchiha rebelled?!"

This was not an unfounded suspicion. In fact, as a disciple of the Second Hokage, he had witnessed Uchiha Madara controlling the Nine-Tails with the Sharingan when he was young. Now that he encountered the same situation again, he naturally thought of Uchiha.

Before he could think any more, the Nine-Tails' roar interrupted Sarutobi Hiruzen's thoughts.

Under the sound waves and air waves that seemed to be real, the invisible impact spread layer by layer, uprooting the surrounding trees, and dust continued to fly amid the roar.

If you don't move, it's fine; if you move, it's amazing.

The huge fox demon suddenly burst out at an extremely fast speed, like an orange-red flame, and ran wildly on its four hooves, stirring up a whistling gale, dragging a huge air wave behind it. The smoke and dust rolled like a dragon, like a flaming red meteor streaking across the ground.

Boom. Boom. Boom.

The earth was shaking violently, and the air rushing in from the front was like a huge wave hitting the shore.

"I've said it before, as long as I'm still alive, you'll never set foot in Konoha again!" With one breath and one inhalation, Sarutobi Hiruzen's chakra boiled, his body was like a taut bowstring, bursting out with brute force, he leaped to the ground, thrust his stick forward and struck out with all his might: "Ruyi Stick·Gongli!"

In an instant, the Vajra Ruyi Stick grew larger, until it was as thick as a dozen people could hug around it, and it hit the oncoming fox demon directly.

boom! ! !

This collision was truly terrifying.

The noisy smoke and dust carried with it a huge air wave, and it was as easy as a trapped dragon rising from the abyss to rush into the sky.

The deafening roar caused the houses several kilometers away to vibrate, the glass to turn into powder, and the eardrums to hurt.

The man and the beast were actually wrestling with each other.

Just like in sumo wrestling, they collide with each other with pure brute force until one of them is defeated.

The earth wailed as if it could not bear the heavy burden and was shaking horribly. Along with the clash of forces, countless criss-crossing cracks spread in all directions like a dense spider web.

To Nine-Tailed Fox's surprise, it had clearly used all its strength but could only advance half a step.

That tiny body seemed like a solid wall. No matter how it attacked, it could not cross the forbidden area.

"This is the Tailed Beast."

After being knocked back dozens of meters, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the grooves plowed by his feet, as well as his hands that were shaking violently and cracked, and he suddenly felt powerless.

I really don't know, Mr.

He is old after all. If he were young, he might be able to hold on.

"There's nothing I can do." Sarutobi Hiruzen exhaled, his eyes gradually sharpening: "I can't conserve chakra anymore. If you keep fighting like this, my old bones will fall apart!"

He decided not to conserve chakra anymore and instead immediately created two shadow clones.

"Earth Escape·Yellow Spring Marsh!"

A huge swamp suddenly appeared, swallowing up the Nine-Tailed Fox's limbs and making it stuck in the quagmire, unable to extricate itself.

Then, the two shadow clones that had been prepared directly refined the chakra, accumulated it in their mouths, and transformed it into a ferocious ninjutsu:

"Thunder Release: Thunder Dragon Bullet!"

"Water Release·Water Dragon Bullet!"

"Compound Ninjutsu: Thunder Water Dragon Bullet--!"

While trying his best to save chakra, Sarutobi Hiruzen chose to use the Thunder and Water Combined Escapism Technique which was more suitable for the current situation.

In an instant, the raging waves turned into a dragon shape, entangled with shining lightning, and roared towards the nine-tailed fox. The raging electric current flowed on the orange fur, and immediately emitted a burnt smell. The water escape spread the power of the electric current throughout the body, paralyzing the fox's body.

"It's now!"

Three figures instantly landed at the corresponding four positions while the Nine-Tailed Fox was being controlled.

After completing the hand seal, Sarutobi Hiruzen growled, "Three-way seal!"

Green transparent curtains rose in the east, south, and west directions, and then a pyramid-shaped barrier was opened, forming a solid wall that trapped the nine-tailed fox.

boom!

The Nine-Tailed Fox escaped and angrily attacked the barrier.

The violent shock caused cracks all over the barrier, and the caster, Sarutobi Hiruzen, was severely injured, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his lips. However, he said nothing, staring at the Nine-Tails in the barrier with bloodshot eyes, and the veins on his forehead bulged: "Don't even think about getting out before I die!"

No matter how the Nine-Tailed Fox attacked inside the barrier, the seemingly weak and cracked pyramid barrier always stood firm.

With each heavy blow, Sarutobi Hiruzen's life force gradually faded away like a candle in the wind.

On the other hand, the battle situation showed a one-sided trend.

The extraordinary ability of the Sequence 5 Wraith is indeed bizarre. It can penetrate various attacks, launch sneak attacks silently, and possess people and flash between mirrors.

However, should we say that Obito is unlucky, or that he has done too many bad things and his luck is always a little bad?

The biggest advantage of the resentful spirit state is that it can penetrate obstacles and ignore all kinds of attacks, but it happened to hit Minato Namikaze and was perfectly restrained by the natural energy in the Sage Mode.

With each punch, Obito was beaten so hard that his face was bruised and swollen, and he looked in a miserable state.

However, although Minato Namikaze had the advantage, he was unable to turn it into victory. It was not because he could not make up his mind, but simply because Obito was too difficult to kill. His body was as hard as steel, his movements were agile and quick, his recovery speed was astonishingly fast, and he would summon "ghosts" and "zombies" from time to time to delay the battle.

Feeling the gradually weakening aura over there, Namikaze Minato was anxious and knew that he could not delay any longer, so he did not hesitate, bit his thumb, and pressed it to the ground: "Summoning Technique!"

"Hahaha, at this point, do you think you can get rid of me by summoning a summoned beast?" Obito seemed to have been beaten badly, but in fact he suffered no losses. He just wanted to delay deliberately and watch Minato Namikaze become more and more desperate. This would satisfy his desire for revenge deep in his heart.

However, the next moment, Obito was shocked to find that what came out of the smoke was not the so-called summoning beast.

Instead, it was a tall and burly figure, with a head of white hair scattered like a lion, two small toads standing on his shoulders, and he exuded a heroic spirit.

"I didn't expect that Konoha would become like this after not coming back for so long."

The man wore a forehead protector with the word "Oil" on it, a red outer coat, a pair of wooden clogs, and carried a huge scroll on his back.

His calm and steady gaze fell on Obito. After half a second, the tall and burly man sighed and said, "Minato, is this guy the disciple you mentioned?"

"is teacher."

Namikaze Minato walked out from the side, his eyes lowered, and said softly: "I can't take him down by myself, so I can only let the messenger toad inform you."

"Stop talking nonsense, little Jiraiya, little Minato!"

Zhijian, who was standing on their shoulders, clapped his hands and interrupted their reminiscence: "I have to hurry back to cook for the children. The child's father, please get rid of him quickly!"

"Understood, mother."

Fukasaku smiled, looked at the two people beside him, and said with emotion: "After so many years, I didn't expect to see two people in Sage Mode fighting together again."

"Then. Go ahead."

Jiraiya kicked off his clogs, his eyes suddenly sharp: "Boy, let me show you what happens when you offend an immortal!"

At this moment, Obito suddenly lost his composure and beads of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Did something go wrong?

Minato Namikaze is already difficult to deal with, and now Jiraiya appears?

You people in Konoha have no martial ethics!

We agreed on a one-on-one match, how did it turn into a mixed doubles match!

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 255: You've offended the immortal and you still want to run away?

"It's time to go, two immortals!"

Jiraiya shouted, put his palms together, and made a rather exaggerated gesture: "Next up is the Toad Sage of Myoboku Mountain, the heroic Jiraiya!"

The abundant natural energy made his already strong body even more sturdy and powerful, which was completely contrary to the ninja system's concept of being agile and thin.

Not only that, compared to Minato Namikaze next to him, Jiraiya's changes are obviously greater, with webbed feet and hands growing.

"Shut up!"

"Noisy!"

The toads standing on either side of his shoulders punched him in the face.

Jiraiya, who was attacked from both sides, had a buzzing sound in his head: "Okay, I get it, two sages."

In the background, a line of black dots seemed to float by, accompanied by an eerie silence.

The brief moment of antics seemed to ease the tense atmosphere a little.

"Is this guy really a Sannin?"

Just as deep doubts were passing through Obito's mind.

Swish!

A flash of light yellow suddenly passed before my eyes.

"I've been on guard against you!" Obito reacted quickly, swinging his arms and creating a hurricane around his body: "Ice Storm!"

Hoo ho ho.

Dreamy and beautiful snowflakes are flying and cold air is sweeping.

In an instant, the temperature nearby suddenly dropped to freezing point, causing Minato Namikaze, who had forced his way into the storm, to feel his limbs suddenly stiff and his movements became slow.

After catching the slow-moving figure out of the corner of his eye, a hideous sneer spread across Obito's face. He twisted his ankle, and while his upper body turned, his arms suddenly expanded several times, with black bulging blood vessels wrapped around them, like thick rebar, and he clenched his fist and smashed down like a hammer.

The strong airflow was like a dump truck, crushing towards Minato Namikaze.

That terrifying force, before even touching him, had already caused his facial muscles to be squeezed and deformed.

"Immortal Technique: Needle Ksitigarbha!"

At the critical moment, long white hair came like a tide and entangled Minato Namikaze. The long hair was like steel needles, with a hard metallic color.

boom!

Obito's punch not only failed to break Jin Jizo's defense, but was pierced by his hardened long hair.

"Senjutsu: Chaotic Lion Hair Technique!" Jiraiya on the side made hand seals in an instant, and his white hair seemed to grow wildly. In just a few seconds, he entangled Obito who had no time to retreat: "Take advantage of this moment, Minato!"

"Damn it, what on earth is this weird energy?!"
