Konoha: Superman template, the spoiled brat becomes strong.

His companions looked terrified; they could clearly feel the immense power emanating from that mountain-like black shadow.

That was an existence they could not match.

The giant tentacles attacked again, this time targeting Naruto.

"Naruto, watch out!" Sakura exclaimed.

Naruto reacted quickly and barely dodged the sweeping tentacles, but he was still knocked to the ground by the strong wind they generated. He got up in a sorry state, feeling a surge of chakra within his body.

Just then, another wave of tentacles attacked, blocking all of their escape routes.

"This can't go on." Kakashi looked at the scene before him, which resembled a natural disaster, and his heart was filled with anxiety.

Just then, the huge black shadow let out a deep roar, like muffled thunder, making everyone's eardrums ring.

One of its tentacles suddenly accelerated, lashing out at Kakashi like lightning.

"Danger!" Yamato exclaimed. He wanted to help, but it was too late.

At the critical moment, a flash of silver light appeared, and Kakashi's figure disappeared from the spot, dodging the fatal blow.

Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, they discovered that the shadowy figure's attack had become even more ferocious.

Despair crept into their hearts, and just then, Orochimaru's voice rang in their ears like a venomous snake: "Hehehe, what a wonderful performance. It seems the real show has only just begun..."

"It's useless, completely useless!" Shikamaru scratched his head in frustration. He looked at the dark figure as an invincible nightmare, making it hard to breathe. "We should retreat first and come up with a new plan. Fighting head-on like this will only lead to our deaths!"

"No!" Naruto's eyes widened, and he clenched his fists. "We absolutely cannot back down! This guy's background is unknown; he's definitely up to something! Now is the perfect opportunity to catch him and get to the bottom of this!"

"You idiot!" Shikamaru retorted, annoyed. "Isn't the situation obvious enough? We can't even break through his defenses, how are we supposed to catch him? Acting recklessly will only get us all killed!"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Naruto roared, veins bulging on his forehead. "Just because the enemy is strong, does that mean we should retreat without a fight? Absolutely not!"

"Naruto's right! We can't give up like this!" Kiba cheered from the side, waving his fist. "A real man faces challenges head-on!"

"Don't be impulsive, Kiba!" Sakura anxiously grabbed Kiba's arm, also feeling that a head-on confrontation was not a wise move.

Sasuke watched all this with a cold eye. He neither approved of Naruto's recklessness nor agreed with Shikamaru's retreat. His arrogant eyes were filled with a hint of impatience.

Kakashi frowned as he watched the arguing crowd. He knew that the most important thing now was to reach a consensus, but given the current situation, it was clear that it would be difficult to do so.

Just then, a black flame suddenly descended from the sky, instantly engulfing the huge black shadow.

The crackling sound of the flames, accompanied by a suffocating heat wave, distorted the surrounding air.

“That is…” Sakura covered her mouth, staring incredulously at the scene before her.

It's Uchiha Itachi.

He appeared in mid-air like a ghost, his scarlet Sharingan radiating a terrifying light.

"It's Amaterasu!" Kakashi exclaimed in a low voice. He recognized the black flames as a powerful ninjutsu unique to the Uchiha clan.

Naruto stared wide-eyed at the raging black flames, his heart filled with awe for Itachi; he had never seen such power before.

"That's great! Uchiha Itachi is so strong!" Kiba excitedly waved his fist.

However, this excitement did not last long.

Within the black flames, the enormous figure let out a piercing, maniacal laugh, a laugh like that of a demon from hell, sending chills down one's spine.

The shadowy figure, originally enveloped in flames, was not destroyed; instead, it grew larger and more ferocious.

Everyone stared in astonishment at what they saw before them. Their prized ninjutsu seemed utterly useless in the face of this colossal creature.

Just as they were at a loss, a mysterious voice suddenly came from all directions.

The voice was low and hoarse, filled with an eerie allure: "Hehehe... What a wonderful fear..."

Chapter 205 Kisame, Continue the Attack

The voice was elusive, like a ghostly whisper, echoing in everyone's ears.

Kakashi frowned, looking around, trying to find the source of the sound.

Naruto clenched his fists, his azure eyes flashing with vigilance.

Sasuke snorted coldly, activated his Sharingan, and tried to detect any abnormal chakra fluctuations.

Sakura and Shikamaru also became more alert, standing back to back to form a defensive circle, and a tense atmosphere spread through the crowd.

The swaying shadows of the surrounding trees appeared particularly eerie in the night, and the darkness seemed like a giant monster that could devour them at any moment.

The air was filled with the damp smell of earth, mixed with a faint stench of blood, which was nauseating.

"Where?" Kiba asked in a low voice, while Akamaru let out a low whimper and nervously sniffed the air around him.

Suddenly, the ground shook violently, and a huge figure burst out of the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

It's Kisame!

He held the sharkskin in his hand, grinned, and revealed his sharp teeth.

"Hehehe...Found you!"

Before he finished speaking, Kisame swung his Samehada, and a huge torrent of water, like a roaring beast, swept towards the group.

The waves churned and roared, creating a deafening sound and a suffocating sense of oppression.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

"Scatter!" Kakashi shouted, and everyone quickly scattered to avoid the surging water.

Kankuro reacted quickly, immediately controlling the puppet crows and black ants to meet the water dragon.

The crow brandished its sharp blade, slicing the water dragon into several pieces, while the black ant spewed out poisonous mist, attempting to distract Kisame's vision.

Temari was not to be outdone. She pulled out a huge fan and swung it fiercely, sending out a howling wind that collided with the water, creating a huge roar.

Water splashed everywhere, like a torrential downpour, soaking the surrounding trees.

Kisame sneered and swung Samehada in his hand again, causing more water to gush from the ground, forming huge water columns that rushed towards the group.

Kankuro and Temari fought back with all their might, but Kisame's attacks became increasingly fierce, and they gradually felt powerless.

"Damn it..." Kankuro gritted his teeth, and the puppet's movements began to slow down.

Just then, Kakashi's figure flashed and appeared in front of Kisame, his Raikiri flashing with dazzling light.

"Rachel!"

"Hmph, child's play!" Kisame sneered, and with a sudden swing of Samehada, he blocked Kakashi's attack.

"Kakashi, what are you doing!" A gloomy voice came from behind.

Danzo emerged from the shadows, leaning on his cane, his tone filled with disdain.

"Kakashi, is this what you call leadership? Leading the team into such a predicament is a disgrace to Konoha!"

Kakashi's eyes sharpened, and he retorted, "Now is not the time to assign blame. The most urgent task is to deal with the enemy at hand!" The lightning in his Raikiri intensified, crackling and reflecting on his resolute face.

"Deal with the enemy? I think you're just courting death!" Danzo sneered, and the Root ninjas behind him were poised to strike at any moment.

"Enough!" Yamato suddenly stepped forward, blocking Kakashi's path. "Internal strife now will only give the enemy an opportunity to exploit!"

"Yamato, how dare you disobey my orders!" Danzo roared, his eyes flashing with a dangerous light.

"I obey the Hokage's orders, not yours!" Yamato said firmly, without backing down.

Supporters of both sides began blaming each other, creating a tense atmosphere that seemed on the verge of erupting into civil war.

Kankuro and Temari exchanged a glance, both seeing helplessness in each other's eyes.

These Konoha ninjas are really something...

Just then, a hearty laugh broke the deadlock.

"Hey, looks like I've arrived just in time!"

With his golden hair and bright red toad-like outfit, who else could it be but Jiraiya!

He crossed his arms, looking completely at ease, as if the crisis before him was nothing to him.

"Immortal Technique·Super Large Jade Rasengan!"

The massive Rasengan, with overwhelming force, instantly shattered Kisame's Water Release technique. The violent energy swept outwards, uprooting the surrounding trees.

Kisame was blasted away by this powerful force and crashed heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"Amazing!" Naruto exclaimed excitedly.

"As expected of Jiraiya-sama!" Sakura exclaimed excitedly.

Seeing Jiraiya's formidable strength, everyone's morale soared, and they were filled with confidence in victory.

However, at that moment, the mysterious voice rang out again, like a demonic sound from hell, echoing in everyone's ears.

"Kisame, keep attacking..."

Kisame struggled to his feet, his eyes growing even fiercer. Samehada in his hand vibrated with a buzzing sound, and an even more powerful surge of chakra coursed through his body.

He suddenly raised his head and charged towards the crowd, Samehada held high in his hand...

"kill!".

Chapter 206 Kisame's Defeat

The air was thick with the pungent smell of scorched earth, and the battle-ravaged ground exuded a suffocating sense of oppression.

Broken branches and debris lay scattered about, as if silently recounting the clash of forces that had just occurred.

Kakashi stared intently at Kisame, who had risen again, his eyes sharp as knives. Naruto clenched his fists, his eyes burning with an indomitable flame. He couldn't wait to rush forward again and use his power to protect his comrades.

Sasuke's expression remained as cold and stern as ever, but his slightly trembling hands betrayed his inner tension; he was ready to cooperate with Naruto at any moment.

Sakura stood behind the two of them, biting her lip tightly, her eyes showing both worry and strength.

Shikamaru, Kiba, Akamaru, Neji, and Hinata all held their breath, ready to engage in battle at any moment.

"roar--".

Kisame let out a beast-like roar, his Samehada in his hand greedily sucking up the chakra in the air.

He launched another attack, this time summoning countless shark clones that shot towards the crowd from all directions like arrows.

Water splashed everywhere, reflecting a cold light in the setting sun.

"Naruto, Sasuke, get ready!" Kakashi shouted.

Naruto took a deep breath and rapidly formed hand seals, unleashing the "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!" Countless shadow clones instantly appeared on the battlefield.

Sasuke's body also moved, his eyes flashing with a scarlet light, "Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!" A huge fireball spewed from his mouth, sweeping towards the shark clone.

Naruto's shadow clones also unleashed their Rasengans, which intertwined with Sasuke's Fireball Jutsu, creating a symphony of fire and storm that crashed violently into the shark swarm.

Explosions rang out one after another, water splashes and flames intertwined, and the air itself was distorted and deformed by the scorching heat.

Sakura followed closely behind, swinging her fists with astonishing power, shattering the approaching shark clones with each blow.

Shikamaru used the Shadow Binding Technique to restrict the shark clone, creating an opportunity for the others to attack.

Kiba and Akamaru worked in perfect harmony, darting across the battlefield like a whirlwind, tearing apart any approaching enemies.

Hinata activated her Byakugan, constantly observing the battlefield situation and providing intelligence for her teammates, while Neji stayed behind everyone, ready to fill in at any time.

Seeing his clones being defeated one after another, Kisame suddenly leaped up, raising Samehada high in his hand, his chakra surging wildly around his body, and water forming whirlpools around him.

He roared and charged at the crowd again.

Just then, Jiraiya's voice rang out again: "Watch out!"

The battle reached a fever pitch, with everyone giving their all to defeat the enemy before them.

Just then, a scream pierced the sky.

"what!"

In the salty, pungent air, besides the smell of scorched earth, there was also a faint stench of blood.

Sakura clenched her teeth, beads of sweat forming on her forehead, as she tried to dodge the shark clone's relentless attacks.

However, in a moment of carelessness, a sharp fin blade slashed her arm, and blood instantly stained her sleeve.

"Sakura!" Sasuke roared. He appeared beside Sakura like a black lightning bolt, picked her up, and in a few leaps, carried her away from the center of the battlefield to a relatively safe corner.
