Konoha: Superman template, the spoiled brat becomes strong.

Everyone cut off the flow of chakra! Tsunade's monstrous fist slammed into the ground, and the flying ice shards formed a temporary barrier, mimicking the chakra flow trajectory of the Tailed Beast Ball!

Naruto's golden hair danced wildly in the energy storm.

He could feel the Nine-Tails' claws frantically digging at the ground in his consciousness space, and the chakra being devoured by the crystals was transforming into some kind of viscous, malicious substance.

But what alarmed him even more was the warmth emanating from his palm—it felt as if countless Obito's hands were caressing his wrist through a rift in space and time.

Bagua·Empty Wall Palm!

Hinata's sharp cry startled him from his daze.

The spherical barrier formed by Gentle Fist Chakra sealed the out-of-control energy waves at eight points, and the blood beads that seeped from the girl's forehead bloomed like red plum blossoms on the snow.

Naruto suddenly realized that his chakra was resonating with her Byakugan through crystallization, like... like a telescope technique that shares vision.

"I see." Shikamaru suddenly snapped his fingers.

His shadow meandered along the chakra nodes Hinata had created, dismantling the rampaging energy beams one by one, like unraveling a nine-linked ring. This wasn't chakra absorption, but resonance amplification—Naruto activated the runes with the Nine-Tails' chakra, Hinata's Byakugan provided the perspective, and Kakashi's Sharingan was responsible for analyzing spatial coordinates...

Sasuke's Kusanagi sword suddenly appeared at Shikamaru's neck: Get to the point!

The key point is... the Nara clan genius rolled his eyes. We're all just pieces of a puzzle. His shadow suddenly wrapped around Sasuke's wrist, especially you, the Uchiha clan's chakra characteristics just happen to be able to...

Before the words were finished, the crystal suddenly emitted a buzzing sound like a whale's song.

Milky white light streamed from the spiral cracks, weaving into a giant Tenseigan pattern above everyone's heads.

Kakashi felt a piercing pain through his Sharingan—he saw it: the black sphere rotating within the core of the rune was the Kamui coordinate system that Obito had left him years ago.

Stop! The silver-haired Jonin's roar was drowned out by the energy tide.

His Mangekyou Sharingan began to distort space uncontrollably, and the crystal in Naruto's palm suddenly floated above everyone's heads, with blood flowing from the three Rinnegan patterns at the same time.

Now! Shikamaru's roar tore through the storm, and Hinata sealed off the Qian position chakra!

The Raikage used Lightning Release to provoke him to leave his position!

Sasuke infused Yin-attribute chakra into the Zhen position!

The moment the last command was completed, all the cracks on the crystal surface suddenly closed.

The runes that had been floating in mid-air slowly fell back into Naruto's palm, the blue and gold patterns now as gentle as a stream under the moonlight.

As Sasuke sheathed his sword, he caught a glimpse of the starlight in Hinata's eyes as she looked at Shikamaru, and let out a barely perceptible snort.

Well done! Temari lightly tapped Shikamaru's back with the rib of her fan. Her eyes, hidden beneath the Sand Village forehead protector, curved into a crescent moon. She hadn't expected the strategist of the Ino-Shika-Cho trio...

Her teasing came to an abrupt end.

Naruto suddenly staggered and knelt on one knee, spiderweb-like black patterns seeping from the surface of the crystal.

Kakashi felt a burning sensation in his Sharingan again—this time he could see clearly that the black lines were devouring the star pattern spots on the snow, just like the spatial folds when Kamui space devours matter.

The wind and snow stopped at some point.

Everyone held their breath as they watched the crystals return to calm, unaware that the snowflakes within a hundred miles radius were frozen in mid-air, as if the entire world had been put on pause.

Deep within the core of the rune, three tomoe-shaped shadows are quietly coalescing.

As the still snowflakes began to fall again, Kakashi's fingertips were being penetrated by some kind of viscous folds of time and space.

He stared at the gradually dimming runes on Naruto's palm, the burning sensation lingering on his retina mirroring the tearing pain of the collapsing Kamui dimension.

The Nine-Tails bared its sharp teeth within the sealed cage, its crimson chakra, mixed with sand, churning in Naruto's consciousness: "Kid, this thing is gnawing at my malice!"

It wasn't malicious. Hinata suddenly covered her right eye, pale blue veins bulging on the surface of her white eyeball—memories... fragments of a memory from another time. She staggered and grabbed Naruto's shoulder. The instant their chakra touched, the snowflakes frozen in mid-air suddenly refracted countless spots of light, piecing together a winding arrow on the snow.

The Raikage's Lightning Release armor exploded with arcs of electricity, and his fan-like hand shattered the ice surface: playing tricks! The flying ice shards vaporized into indigo mist the instant they touched the arrowhead of the light spot, and the outline of the Uchiha clan crest emerged from the mist.

Sasuke's Kusanagi sword tip pierced a patch of ice crystals, the three tomoe swirling wildly in his pupils: the location of the clan's Naka Shrine...

The error was seventeen degrees. Shikamaru's shadow wrapped around Sasuke's wrist, preventing him from slashing through the mist. These spots of light were correcting their direction—look at the western cliffs! The thousand slips he bit off traced a parabola in the snow, pointing towards the old site of Kirigakure.

The dissipating indigo mist suddenly solidified, like a guiding spark piercing through the clouds.

Tsunade released the seal of the Hundred Healings Technique, emerald green chakra coiling around her trembling fingertips: "Shizune, send a message to the Kirigakure liaison team." Her Healing Palm aura swept across Hinata's bleeding forehead. "Kakashi, your Sharingan's power is waning..."

It's a coordinate. The silver-haired Jonin ripped off his blood-soaked headband, the Mangekyou Sharingan pattern overlapping the clan crest in the mist at an eerie angle. Obito had inscribed the same formula at the very bottom of the Kamui dimension. He swallowed the rest of his sentence, his Adam's apple bobbing—those snow-covered star maps swallowed by the black lines were now reconstructing on his retina the sign language Obito had made on his deathbed.

Temari's three-star fan suddenly buzzed, the iron sand vibrating between the fan ribs: the wind direction was wrong. She loosened the ribbon binding her hair, her long chestnut hair pulled by an invisible force in the opposite direction of the arrow of light; something was interfering with the flow of natural energy...

Two-way resonance. Fragments of Onoki's Dust Release barrier floated in a diamond-shaped array, and the old man's cloudy eyes reflected the shadow of the three tomoe that had re-lit the core of the rune. This thing was both a compass and bait. As we followed the guidance, the being on the other side was also moving towards us.

Naruto suddenly clenched the crystal.

The Nine-Tails' chakra cloak spread uncontrollably across the back of his hand, the black patterns coiling around his veins like living things: It's so hot... But... His azure pupils reflected Hinata's pale profile, and he felt he had to confirm it, just like when he chased after Sasuke back then.

Sasuke's cold laughter was accompanied by the fine snow.

As he sheathed his sword, he deliberately let the scabbard clang against Naruto's ninja tool bag: Is the bottom-of-the-barrel's intuition even less reliable than the Nara clan's brains? But the footsteps of the Uchiha descendant were the first to shatter the starting point of the light-spotted arrow. Chidori Stream burned charred footprints on the snow. I want to see what is imitating the Uchiha clan crest.

Kakashi's Sharingan suddenly felt a sharp, needle-like pain.

Within his forcibly concentrated pupil power vision, each falling snowflake transformed into a miniature time-space scroll, recording the chakra pathways extending from the former site of Kirigakure.

Those veins were greedily sucking up the scattered chakra fragments from everyone, like a spider web waiting for its prey to flap its wings.

The medical team stayed behind to guard the barrier. Tsunade tore off the scab from her sleeve, channeling the chakra of her Super Strength Fist into the soles of her feet. The Jonin formed a triangular formation, with the Jinchuriki in the center. She noticed Onoki's hesitant expression and added, "The Tsuchikage's Dust Release will cover the rear. We need to deal with experts in space-time ninjutsu."

As the first kunai was driven into the direction indicated by the light spot, Killer Bee's eight-tailed tentacles suddenly became restless in the mental space.

The rapper, pressing his buzzing Samehada, his pupils behind his sunglasses contracted into vertical slits: "Xiao Ba says he smells the stench of an old acquaintance...like the pungent, sour smell of being beaten up by Old Man Madara!"

Shikamaru's shadow twisted into a talisman on the ground to break the curse.

He counted the frequency with which everyone stepped over the light spots, then suddenly grabbed Temari's sleeve: "Every seven steps will trigger a chakra resonance, get ready for Wind Release..." Before he finished speaking, Sasuke, who was at the front, suddenly froze—the slush sticking to the soles of his boots was transforming into dark green moss, and the direction in which the moss spread completely overlapped with the arrow of the light spot.

Dusk had somehow swallowed up the setting sun.

Deep within the forest, unnoticed by anyone, the Udumbara flowers, which had not bloomed for twenty years, were now in full bloom, each petal reflecting the patterns of the Rinnegan.

In a more remote swamp, a sleeping puppet opened its eye sockets, which were inlaid with Sharingan eyes.

Chapter 317 Deep in the Swamp

A damp, fishy-sweet scent hung in the air. As Shikamaru's shoes crushed the translucent mycelium, the sticky liquid refracted the unique indigo blue of the runes under the moonlight.

He suddenly realized that what he was standing on was not soil at all—the entire forest's humus layer was turning into a gelatinous substance resembling animal entrails at a visible speed.

Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms! Hinata's Byakugan suddenly contracted, and the chakra whirlwind wrapped in her palms twisted the three snake-shaped vines into dust.

The splashed green juice stained Naruto's headband, immediately corroding it and leaving charred marks.

Beware of these plants! Temari's fan blades unleash a hurricane, pinning gold-dusted leaves into tree stumps.

The pierced tree trunk suddenly emitted a shrill cry like a baby's wail, and spiral patterns appeared on the bark surface that were exactly the same as the arrowheads of light.

The moment Kakashi's Lightning Blade tore through the mist, everyone saw the building.

The twisted beams and pillars, like the broken ribs of a giant beast, are stuck diagonally into the ground, and the chains wrapped around the bronze door knockers are slowly seeping ink.

Killer Bee's eight-tailed tentacles on his shoulder suddenly straightened, and Samehada emitted a buzzing sound like metal scraping.

Twenty years ago, when Amegakure was destroyed... Onoki floated in mid-air, the aura of Dust Release flickering in his palm. I've seen this architectural style before.

Tsunade smashed the charging gargoyle with a single punch, the flying shards creating ripples on the barrier: This isn't Amegakure's craftsmanship, look at the family crest on the lintel— Before she could finish speaking, seventeen dark figures suddenly seeped out from the crack in the bronze door, the shadows flowing from the hem of their black robes actually swallowing the moonlight.

Naruto's Rasengan suddenly swelled, its azure light illuminating the mask of the black-robed man closest to him.

That wasn't ordinary protective gear, but a fleshy membrane made up of countless miniature Sharingan eyes, each eyeball rotating at a different frequency.

When Sasuke's Kusanagi sword pierced the opponent's chest, what splattered was not blood, but thick Udumbara pollen.

"Don't breathe!" Shikamaru's Shadow Binding Technique entangled the three black-robed figures who were about to form hand seals, their chakra trajectories and light spots frequency matching! Before he finished speaking, the floor tiles of the entire ruins suddenly flipped over, revealing a bottomless vertical shaft below.

Thousands of puppet arms climbed out of the well, each finger adorned with a ring engraved with the Rinnegan symbol.

"Uncle!" Naruto flipped and leaped onto the Eight-Tails' tentacles, using that combination technique! Killer Bee's sunglasses flashed with a cold light, and the clanging of the seven ninja swords being drawn simultaneously composed a kind of battle song melody.

Sasuke's Susanoo skeleton suddenly enveloped Naruto's shadow clone. In the instant that purple flames and tailed beast chakra merged, six rainbow-like torrents of chakra exploded in the sky.

When the smoke cleared, a huge gap appeared in the black-robed men's formation.

Hinata's Byakugan suddenly saw an astonishing sight—the corpses of the fallen enemies were rapidly decomposing, turning into nutrients to nourish the Udumbara flower.

As if possessed, she leaped behind Naruto, her Gentle Fist striking precisely at a transparent spirit about to launch a sneak attack.

Hinata, you... Naruto looked at the girl's flushed cheeks, and the pollen on her hair was forming the Hyuga clan crest around her Byakugan.

Before he could thank him, a strange throbbing suddenly came from the ground.

The swamp twenty paces away began to boil, and some ancient aura spread along the earth's veins, causing the chakra of all the ninjas to freeze for a moment.

The Raikage's Lightning Release armor exploded as he shattered the head of the last black-robed man, discovering that the inside of the man's broken mask was engraved with the ANBU number from the early days of Konoha's founding.

This detail almost caused Tsunade's medical ninjutsu to miss its mark, as the green chakra blade severed the chains on Gaara's sand mat.

Something's not right. Kakashi lifted the sleeve of one of the black-robed figures, revealing the fading bone veins on his skin. These weren't living people, but... He suddenly fell silent, because the destroyed Udumbara flowers suddenly collapsed en masse, all their petals pointing towards the depths of the swamp.

From the distant forest came the continuous cracking sound of branches, as if a colossal creature was awakening.

Before the cheers of victory could even be uttered, Sasuke's Rinnegan suddenly detected chakra veins flickering deep underground.

The remains of the black-robed men who should have been wiped out are reassembling, while the first corpse to fall twitches its fingers slightly—the index finger wearing a swirling totem ring is gently tapping out some ancient rhythm.

Sasuke's Rinnegan suddenly shrank to the size of a needle tip, and the chakra veins entangled deep within the earth's ley lines were proliferating wildly along the roots of the Udumbara flower.

The shattered remains of the black robes suddenly turned into a scarlet viscous liquid, converging towards the center of the swamp like iron filings attracted by a magnet.

The chakra flames on Naruto's Tailed Beast Cloak suddenly shook violently, and Kurama growled deep within his consciousness: Kid, this aura is even more disgusting than Madara Uchiha!

The clump of slime in the center of the swamp suddenly exploded, and a ninja wearing a dark gold talisman robe emerged from the water, stepping on lotus flowers formed from the Corpse Bone Vein.

As he raised his hand to form the Child Seal, the moonlight in the entire space suddenly twisted into solid chains, forcibly pressing the Raikage's Lightning Release Armor back into his body.

Onoki's Dust Release beam mysteriously dissipated three feet away from his opponent, turning into a shower of phosphorescent flames that drifted down.

Tiannum Spear?

No... Kakashi's Sharingan's three tomoe were spinning wildly. He saw the Six Paths Sage's cuneiform script floating on the surface of those moonlight chains. This was a forbidden technique that combined natural energy with runes!

The space began to collapse inward.

Hinata's Byakugan saw the barrier wall swallowing the air, and Temari's fan blade shattered into iron sand the moment it touched the transparent barrier.

Gaara's Sand Eyes suddenly bled, and he hoarsely shouted: "The barrier is absorbing chakra!"

Naruto suddenly noticed the indigo blue residue on the leader's right fingertip—the same substance as the arrowhead of the light spot.

The Nine-Tails' chakra surged within his meridians: Idiot, do you still remember the ley line nodes of the Seventh Training Ground? Memories flashed like lightning, and the scene three years ago where Kakashi guided him to break the Four Purple Flame Formation suddenly became clear.

Multiple Shadow Clone Technique! Hundreds of golden figures rushed towards different directions simultaneously, each clone using its toes to trace sealing patterns.

Sasuke's Susanoo suddenly drew its bow and arrow. As the purple flame arrow tore through the barrier, countless faces wearing vortex masks could be vaguely seen wailing in the cracks.

Now! Naruto leaped to the top of the barrier, his nine chakra tails twisting into a spiral drill.

The moment the Tailed Beast Ball and the Rasengan merged, the air was torn open, creating a dark vacuum channel.

The shrill sound of the barrier shattering caused blood to seep from Shikamaru's ears and nose. He suppressed his dizziness and threw out twelve kunai with explosive tags attached, which accurately pierced the leader's chakra points.

The dark gold robe was torn off piece by piece in the explosion, revealing a pale body covered in lividity.

As Kakashi's Lightning Blade pierced through the opponent's chest, a face that made Tsunade stagger was revealed beneath the shattered mask—the ANBU captain who had died in the line of duty twenty years ago, now sneering through his rotting vocal cords.

Look! Hinata pointed her trembling finger into the depths of the swamp.

As the barrier collapsed, stone tablets covered in cuneiform script rose from beneath the boiling mud, the script flowing along the earth's veins toward the five great nations.

Next to the Hyuga clan crest at the top, a prophecy is clearly engraved:

When Udumbara devours Tsukuyomi's son

The cycle of six realms of reincarnation will awaken within the body's bones.

Chapter 318 Kisame's Provocation

A damp mist, carrying the stench of blood, swirled above the swamp. As Naruto crouched down, the crack on his headband severed the Hyuga clan crest reflected in the mud.

The moment his blood-stained fingers touched the ground, the dark red runes suddenly twisted as if alive, forming arrows pointing in twelve directions on the surface of the mud.

These symbols... Sasuke's Mangekyou Sharingan glowed eerily, and the trajectory of those arrows decomposed into patterns of chakra flow in his pupils, originating from the same sealing array we saw in the Land of Wind's underground palace.

Kakashi lifted the sleeve scorched by the Lightning Blade, revealing an old scar from a mission in the Anbu twenty years ago.
