Killing his way through the ninja world, starting from being adopted by the second generation!

The fully transformed Golden Horned Beast had lost its human form. He opened his blood-red maw, and a jet-black Tailed Beast Ball was rapidly condensing inside.

"Tailed Beast Ball?!" Lian Ye's three-tomoe Sharingan spun wildly, immediately recognizing that Kinkaku had condensed a Tailed Beast Ball. "Disperse!"

He hadn't expected that Kinkaku, who only possessed the Nine-Tails' chakra, could unleash a Tailed Beast Ball with astonishing destructive power.

Could it be a skill unlocked by using the Nine-Tails' chakra over many years?

The three of them leaped out in different directions in an instant.

The next second, the Tailed Beast Ball was completed and landed in their previous position, exploding with a bang.

As the smoke and dust dissipated, a deep crater tens of meters in diameter appeared on the ground.

The shockwave sent debris flying like bullets, and Lianye quickly raised her banana leaf fan to defend herself.

"Wind Release: Divine Gale!"

The violent wind-style chakra collided with the flying debris, producing a piercing explosion.

Uchiha Kagami's three-tomoe Sharingan was fixed on Kinkaku's movements when he suddenly shouted, "Left front!"

Mitokado Homura immediately understood and quickly formed hand seals: "Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!"

A thick earthen wall blocked the sweeping tail of the Golden Horn. Although it was shattered instantly, it bought the group precious time to dodge.

"It's no use!" Kinkaku, now fully transformed into a tailed beast, roared inhumanly, his six tails attacking the three of them simultaneously like giant pythons.

While dodging, Renya tried to counterattack with her katana, but the Tailed Beast Cloak's defense was too strong, and the blade couldn't even touch Kinkaku's body.

Uchiha Kagami's Sharingan was already bloodshot. He was barely able to predict Kinkaku's attack, but the three-tomoe Sharingan's perception was woefully inadequate in the face of Kinkaku in his tailed beast form.

"Fire Release: Great Fire Dragon Technique!" Mirror seized the opportunity to unleash the ninjutsu, and the fire dragon rushed straight at Kinkaku's face.

Kinkaku crawled on all fours on the ground, easily dodging the fire dragon. He ignored Uchiha Kagami and instead focused his attention on Renya.

We must kill this guy who killed Silver Horn today!

"die!"

He leaped up suddenly, his giant claws slamming down on Lian Ye with destructive force.

Lianye's three-tomoe Sharingan spun at high speed, capturing Kinkaku's attack trajectory at the critical moment.

He quickly dodged the attack and gave instructions to his companions.

"Mirror, interference on the left!"

"Flame, seal off the ground!"

Uchiha Kagami instantly understood and formed hand seals: "Fire Release: Great Fire Dragon Technique!"

Mitokado Homura simultaneously unleashed, "Earth Release: Swamp of the Underworld!"

The fire dragon lunged straight at Golden Horn's face, forcing him to distract himself and block, while the swamp beneath his feet restricted his movement speed.

Golden Horn has lost his mind; this is absolutely the best time to kill him!

If we wait until he calms down, there might never be another chance...

Seizing this momentary opening, Lian Ye moved with lightning speed, using a low-level Flying Thunder God Slash, her katana thrusting straight at the left side of Jin Jiao's chest.

Even with a chakra cloak, Kinkaku's powerful inertia can still break through his defenses!

If you hit the target, the battle is over!

Just as Jinjiao had parried the two attacks, he saw Lianye rushing towards him at an extremely fast speed. He tried to dodge but found that his feet were stuck in the mud.

Finished!

He watched the blade hurtling towards him and closed his eyes in despair.

"We succeeded!" Lian Ye exclaimed excitedly.

Just then, a rough voice suddenly rang out from afar.

"Hell Thrust·Four Pen Hands!"

P.S.: I suddenly remembered that the Third Raikage died in the Third Shinobi World War. Before I wrote it, I thought he died in the Second Shinobi World War, so I introduced him earlier. But then I realized it was the Third Shinobi World War, which caused the age discrepancy... Now that I've written so far, I can't change it anymore. Please bear with it, and don't mind the age difference (doge jpg).

Chapter 167 Ceasefire

Lianye's blade was only three inches away from Jinjiao's left chest; the battle would end in an instant.

"Hell Thrust·Four Pen Hands!"

A thunderous shout rang out, and blinding lightning suddenly struck from the side!

Lian Ye sensed danger; the impending death forced him to abandon his deadly attack and retreat sharply to dodge.

"boom--!"

The ground where they had been standing was pierced by the violent lightning, blasting out a crater several meters in diameter, with debris flying everywhere.

Lian Ye steadied herself and looked up.

A burly man with blond hair standing in front of Jinjiao stood with his body wrapped in violent lightning chakra. His muscular body was like cast steel, and his sharp eyes were fixed on Lianye.

The long-haired, burly man exudes a powerful and intimidating aura simply by standing there.

The moment Lian Ye saw the burly man, her face darkened instantly.

This guy is none other than the future Third Raikage, known as the strongest Raikage in history!

The old ones get beaten, then the young ones...

Having just killed the future Second Raikage, the future Third Raikage has arrived.

"The traitors of Kumogakure are not for Konoha to execute!" The long-haired, burly man's voice was deep, his four fingers on his right hand still in a thrusting position, with lightning dancing at his fingertips.

Upon seeing the long-haired, burly man before him, Jinjiao revealed a smile of relief, "Hehe...it seems my life isn't meant to end after all."

He would have been killed if the strong man hadn't arrived in time.

However, he quickly realized what the burly man had just said and said with dissatisfaction:

"What makes you think you can call me a traitor?!"

"Don't think the village leaders don't know what you've been doing in secret..." The burly man said coldly without turning his head, "After the war, you'll have to atone for your sins!"

Golden Horn's pupils suddenly contracted, revealing a shocked expression.

It goes without saying that their assassination attempt on the First Raikage has been exposed.

"Oh, right..." The burly man glanced at him, his lightning chakra surging, "Don't even think about running away, or I'll kill you myself!"

Jinjiao's face was very ugly, but he did not refute it.

The long-haired, burly man was a ninja personally trained by that brute, and he perfectly inherited the Lightning Release Chakra Mode.

Even the two brothers in the village dared not provoke each other.

Because with his strength, he really could kill me...

Lian Ye's gaze was icy, her right hand gripping the hilt of the knife tightly, her knuckles turning bluish-white from the excessive force.

To be honest, he didn't think the group could withstand the combined attack of Golden Horn and the strongman.

The title of the strongest Raikage in history is well-deserved!

Although the burly man is not yet the Raikage, it is not far from the time when he will become the Raikage.

Even if he doesn't kill the future Second Raikage, he will be ambushed and killed by Kinkaku and Ginkaku a few years later.

And then the burly man before us became the Third Raikage...

Perhaps because he was in his prime, the Third Raikage exerted an even stronger sense of pressure on him than the Second Raikage!

If a real fight breaks out, they might all die here.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, Kagami Uchiha, and Homura Mitokado all had solemn expressions and stood beside Renya without prior arrangement.

They clearly all sensed the strong man's immense power.

"Koharu, take Danzo and leave first," Renya suddenly said.

Koharu Utatane, who was treating Danzo Shimura in the distance, froze upon hearing this.

She looked up at the backs of Lian Ye and the other two, and subconsciously pursed her lips.

"Cough cough..." Danzo's face was bloodless as he weakly said, "Don't worry about me, go and support them."

Koharu Utatane nodded, and was just about to get up to help when the voices of Hiruzen Sarutobi and the other two came from behind.

"Xiaochun listened to Renya and left with Danzo."

"You're just a hindrance here!"

"That's right, let's go, don't interfere with our battle!"

"I understand..." Koharu Utatane's eyes were red. Ignoring Danzo's struggles, she carried him on her back and left the battlefield.

The long-haired, burly man watched this scene quietly, choosing not to intervene.

Under the wary gazes of Lian Ye and the other three, the burly man made his move!

He didn't attack any of them, but instead scanned the Cloud Ninja and Leaf Ninja fighting fiercely on the battlefield.

He frowned in displeasure when he saw the Cloud Ninja being killed and suppressed by the Leaf Village.

The burly man glanced at Golden Horn beside him and snorted coldly:

"For personal revenge, you recklessly started a war and ended up in such a sorry state... Golden Horn, you have truly disgraced the Hidden Cloud Village."

Jinjiao gritted his teeth, wanting to retort, but swallowed the words back.

That guy is right. After he staged a coup and became the battlefield commander, he not only failed to defeat Konoha, but also caused Ginkaku to die in battle and lose the Banana Fan...

It's like losing both your brother and your army!

The long-haired burly man ignored him and turned to look at Lian Ye and the other three, his lightning chakra surging once more.

"That's enough for today." His voice left no room for argument. "The Hidden Cloud Village will cease hostilities for a period of time. We hope the Hidden Leaf Village will refrain from any underhanded tactics!"

He needs to use this time to clean up the mess that Jinjiao and Yinjiao have made.

If it weren't for those two idiots giving reckless orders, the Cloud Village wouldn't have suffered such heavy losses.

When the strong man learned that Jinjiao and Yinjiao had launched a coup, he immediately left the village and went to the battlefield.

As a result, the situation on the battlefield reversed in a very short time.

These two brothers are truly idiots!

No, there's only one left now...

If it weren't for the fact that Golden Horn was still useful, he would have killed this guy long ago.

Upon hearing the burly man's words, Lian Ye remained silent for a moment before slowly sheathing her sword.

"retreat."

Don't be fooled by his calm exterior; it's all an act...

Others may not know how powerful the long-haired strongman is, but he knows it very well!

A formidable figure who was besieged by tens of thousands of Iwa ninja for three days and three nights before finally running out of chakra and dying!

This powerful guy is definitely not someone he can contend with in his current state.

Let's wait for that guy Onoki to make a move...

The battle between Konoha and Kumogakure has ceased.

As the Konoha ninja withdrew, the long-haired burly man glanced at Kinkaku with disgust, "You'd better give me an explanation when we get back!"

He had barely arrived at the camp and hadn't even had a chance to catch his breath before heading straight to the battlefield.

If he hadn't arrived in time, that idiot Jinjiao would have been killed!

Kinkaku did not respond, his gaze fixed venomously on Lianye's departing figure, and he murmured softly, "Heh... Uchiha... Lianye!"

"By the way, who exactly is the guy who killed my teacher?" the long-haired burly man suddenly asked.

He didn't believe that Kinkaku and Ginkaku could kill the First Raikage and their teacher, who had developed the Lightning Release Armor, so quietly.

The long-haired, burly man and the Raikage's personal guard were not master and disciple, but their relationship was even closer than that of master and disciple...
