Uchiha Ryosuke chuckled softly, silently activated the advanced version of the Flying Thunder God Technique, and vanished instantly.

Border of the Land of Fire, northeastern battlefield.

A large force from Kumogakure in the Land of Lightning is gathering here.

They are preparing for a major counterattack to break through the blockade imposed by Konoha Village.

Their goal was not to conquer the entire Land of Fire.

The Hidden Cloud Village did this mainly to make Konoha feel pain and discourage them from taking action.

If Konoha's combat forces retreat, then victory will belong to Kumogakure.

At that time, Kumogakure will be able to firmly grasp the initiative in the negotiations.

To achieve this goal, they deployed not only precious combat forces, including Jinchūriki.

They also dispatched almost all of their secret forces.

Because the Hidden Cloud Village came with great force and was well prepared.

The secrecy work was also done very well.

As a result, the Konoha defense forces did not become aware of the enemy's advance until the enemy's army was pressing in.

Although an urgent distress signal had already been sent to Konoha.

However, the defensive forces were outnumbered and outgunned by a huge gap in combat power.

They were simply unable to withstand the onslaught of the main force from Kumogakure.

They held out for three days, but now they are out of ammunition and food, and most of their members have already perished.

Only three Jonin remained, stubbornly guarding the border outpost and attempting to continue repelling the enemy.

"Lord Ai, Konoha's defensive forces are already at their wits' end..."

"Let's charge in and wipe out their remaining enemies, then we can advance straight into the Land of Fire!"

The subordinates in charge of reconnaissance rushed back.

The observations were reported to A, the son of the Third Raikage and a candidate for Raikage who was commanding the frontline troops.

"Send all the seriously wounded down for treatment. The rest of you, follow me and Killer Bee and charge!"

"This time, we must tear a huge gap in Konoha's defenses."

Let them feel real pain! Create the most favorable negotiating conditions for us!

As Ai spoke, he raised his arm and gave a shout.

Killer Bee was the first to respond, and the other ninjas from Kumogakure followed suit.

Immediately afterwards, their main force, hundreds of ninjas, crossed the line of confrontation.

They launched a final attack on the three Konoha Jonin who were stubbornly resisting.

"Damn it...it looks like we're going to collapse here."

Higashimura Hibari, the Jonin leading the team, looked at the enemy force, which outnumbered them by tens or even hundreds of times.

He felt a chill run down his spine, and his tone became unusually serious.

"Even if we die, we must stop them here and hold out until our reinforcements arrive!!"

His teammate, Watanabe Taiya, stood beside him, gritting his teeth with a determined look in his eyes.

He pulled out the last two explosive tags from his pocket, ready to take the enemy down with him if necessary.

Killing one is enough to break even, killing two makes you a profit.

Another teammate, Raimu Yamato, shared the same determination to die.

As the enemy drew ever closer, the two sides were about to engage in their final showdown.

Suddenly, at that moment, a figure landed beside them.

Raimon Yamato looked up and saw a completely unfamiliar face.

He initially thought the other side was reinforcements from Konoha.

But when they saw clearly the very obvious headband from the Hidden Cloud Village on their opponent's forehead...

Lei Ming's heart sank suddenly; all his hopes were shattered.

"Only the three of you are left to put up a last-ditch resistance. Why don't you surrender to us? The Hidden Cloud Village will treat you well."

A, the candidate for the Third Raikage, stood high above the pile of rocks.

Looking down at the three Konoha Jonin who were already at their wits' end.

He could have killed those three enemies at any time if he wanted to, but he chose to give them a chance.

If we can obtain useful information about Konoha, then it will be worth it.

However, it was clear that these three Konoha Jonin were not buying it.

The closest one, Lei Ming Yamato, even spat out a vicious "Pui!"

Without a second thought, he raised his hand, ready to use his remaining chakra.

He detonated the last two explosive tags in his hand and went to his death with the enemy.

But just then, another figure appeared behind him.

And a sharp dagger was already at his neck.

The one who made the move was Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.

"What you have is dangerous. Why don't you give it to me?"

As Killer Bee spoke, the sharp longsword in his hand turned and slashed towards Yamato Rai's wrist.

He attempted to sever his opponent's arm to prevent him from detonating the explosive tag.

Just at that critical moment, a white phantom suddenly appeared from nowhere.

The figure moved so fast that it was almost impossible to see clearly.

Killer Bee paused for a moment before realizing something was wrong, but he didn't have time to react.

There was a "dang" sound.

The sharp weapon in his hand was struck by that spiraling white figure.

After producing a metallic clang, it was immediately thrown back.

Killer Bee felt a slight jolt in his heart again as he felt the astonishing impact transmitted through his hand.

It was at this moment that the white phantom spun rapidly before my eyes.

It unleashed an even stronger rotational force, generating an astonishing outward impact that shot towards him and Ai.

"Be careful, Bee!"

Ai's face darkened, and he roared at Killer Bee.

His entire body suddenly exploded with bolts of lightning, forming an indestructible Lightning Release Chakra Armor.

Immediately afterwards, his enormous fist slammed into the rapidly spinning white figure in front of him.

They planned to break the opponent's offensive directly with their strength.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Killer Bee was just about to join the battle when he was held back by another attack.

Chapter 38 Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms - Return to Heaven!

An astonishing amount of chakra was released.

It forms a spiraling storm and presents a 360-degree defense with no blind spots.

The high-speed spinning chakra storm not only successfully deflected Killer Bee's sword.

Furthermore, it poses a further threat to him and A, the successor to the Third Raikage.

At the critical moment, Ai unleashed a powerful ninjutsu.

We're going to teach this unexpected opponent a lesson.

Both he and Killer Bee could tell that their opponent was no ordinary person.

They possess at least the combat strength of elite Jonin.

Killer Bee plans to team up with his older brother to defeat their opponent.

However, it was at this time that...

Suddenly another figure rushed over and attacked Killer Bee without saying a word.

"Soft Boxing Technique·Bagua Sixty-Four Palms!"

The other party gave a low shout, followed by a barrage of palm strikes.

It launched a devastating attack on all the pressure points on Killer Bee's body.

It was incredibly fast and the angle was precise.

"So it's a powerful member of the Hyuga clan from Konoha..."

At this point, Killer Bee had already recognized his opponent.

It wasn't just because his opponent used a soft-style boxing technique, but also because he could clearly see his opponent's face.

The man before them possessed Byakugan eyes, wore a Konoha headband, and attacked with incredible speed.

Killer Bee dodged his opponent's attacks while searching for an opening.

However, he discovered that this opponent was much stronger than any Konoha ninja he had ever encountered before.

For a time, they couldn't find a suitable opportunity to retaliate.

At the same time, Ai on the other side had already thrown a powerful punch at his target.

This punch was cold and heavy, capable of shattering even a large rock on the spot.

However, when the fist covered in lightning chakra struck its target.

It bounced off with another muffled "bang".

Ai felt a slight chill and looked in astonishment at the enemy opposite him, who was still spinning like a ball of chakra at high speed.

"A defense formed by the ultra-high speed rotation of chakra can be used when an attack hits oneself."

By using differential speed to deflect attacks, and then unleashing a high-density burst of chakra, defensive capabilities can be further enhanced...

"Is this the power of the Hyuga clan of Konoha?"

Ai was very surprised and taken aback.

This is the first time they have encountered such a powerful member of the Hyuga clan in their battles with Konoha.

And it was while Ai was distracted that his opponent suddenly launched a counterattack.

"Bagua Kongzhang!"

Within the rapidly spinning spherical storm of chakra, a palm strike formed from high-density chakra suddenly slashed out.

Ai reacted quickly, immediately dodging the fatal attack by sidestepping.

At the same time, they arrived behind their opponent in the next instant.

Because he used the Bagua Empty Palm technique, he interrupted the use of the Bagua Return to Heaven technique.

At this moment, the large spherical chakra storm disappeared, and the true form appeared.

The three Konoha Jonin who were rescued immediately recognized the other party's identity.

"That day was a good day..."

Lei Ming Yamato looked at the familiar tall figure and called out the other person's name.

"This is a really tricky situation."

Hiashi Hyuga stared solemnly at the hundreds of enemies from Kumogakure who were sweeping towards them in a massive, overwhelming manner.

It's obvious what kind of environment we're in here.
