Konoha teaches, then stands in the sky

"Two sages, thank you for your help." Jiraiya said as he condensed his chakra and used the technique of instant body movement to dodge Han's attack.

boom! !

Hana's thick arm wrapped in red chakra suddenly slammed down on the ground where Jiraiya had just stood. The huge force broke the ground and a collapsed hole appeared.

"Now that the troops have arrived and Mu Yue is there to deal with the Four-Tails, we can expand the battlefield a little bit." Jiraiya thought to himself.

The Jinchūriki was afraid to fight and enter the full tailed beast state when he was surrounded by his teammates. Jiraiya also had concerns after the arrival of the Konoha ninja troops.

Because many of Jiraiya's powerful attack methods have a large range, it is extremely easy to accidentally injure surrounding ninjas.

Ninja troops do not fight each other in waves. Most of the time they have to look for opportunities in close combat.

On the one hand, chakra does not support the continuous release of ninjutsu, and on the other hand, there are a series of limitations such as the range of ninjutsu.

Generally, only the jonin can fully master various ninjutsu at long, medium and short range. It is considered good enough for the chuunin to learn ninjutsu with good lethality.

In a ninja unit, jonin are often a minority, while chuunin and genin are the majority, so close combat is inevitable.

In various close-range melee situations, it is easy to kill friendly forces using large-scale ninjutsu.

With a battle plan in mind, Jiraiya quickly dodged and created some distance, luring Han away.

Han noticed Jiraiya's purpose, but he still did not retreat.

His thinking was very clear. Although the Iwagakure troops were at a disadvantage at the moment due to a series of factors such as traps, the number of Iwagakure troops was real.

If Jiraiya can be killed and the Konoha ninja army is leaderless, perhaps Iwagakure can turn defeat into victory!

Several Iwagakure jonin who were responsible for protecting Han followed to prevent any accidents.

"Fairy Mode!"

After enough natural energy had accumulated in his body, Jiraiya decisively fused the chakra and natural energy into fairy chakra, preparing to enter the sage mode.

As his nose changed slightly towards the toad and a sage's mask appeared on his face, Jiraiya successfully entered the sage mode of Myoboku Mountain.

"Boiling Escape: Unparalleled Impact!"

Han released the chakra of the tailed beast in his body to stimulate the power of boiling escape and strengthen his physical strength.

Not only do the various basic property changes have multiple different developments, even two identical bloodline limits can develop vastly different abilities.

For example, Mei Terumi developed the Boiling Release into a highly corrosive mist, while the power of the Five-Tails' Boiling Release is more inclined to enhance its own strength. By bringing the chakra to the boiling point and then strengthening the body, it can gain power far beyond ordinary chakra enhancement.

Jiraiya in Sage Mode had extraordinary perception abilities, so naturally he was unwilling to confront Han head-on with all his explosive power, so he dodged flexibly again.

The difference is that this time the distance was widened so there was no need to worry about affecting the Konoha ninjas, and Jiraiya launched a counterattack.

"Senjutsu·Fire Style·Great Flame Bomb!"

Jiraiya jumped up to dodge and changed the nature of his condensed senjutsu chakra, spitting out an extremely huge and violent bullet-shaped flame.

"Tu Dun·Tu Liubi!"

The Iwagakure jonin who followed immediately used defensive ninjutsu to help Han block the attack.

But how could a mere Iwagakure jonin be able to block Jiraiya's Fire Style when he used all his strength in Sage Mode?

Boom! !

The raging flames broke through the thick earth wall, as if to burn everything to ashes.

Han closed his eyes upon seeing this.

Is he waiting to die? Of course not. Since he doesn't have to worry about accidentally hurting the Iwagakure here, he can naturally further use the power of the tailed beast.

The dark red chakra erupted again, and a terrifying chakra aura rose from Han's body.

As his aura grew, the dark red chakra on Han's body quickly transformed into a physical tailed beast.

Soon, a huge white beast appeared on the battlefield, even bigger than the giant toad that Jiraiya had summoned before.

Han, who had completely transformed into a tailed beast, attracted a lot of attention.

As the super war weapons of the five major countries, the tailed beasts have extraordinary deterrent power. Once they appear, they can bring a strong sense of oppression even if they stand still.

PS: When I saw some brothers talking about adjusting their work and rest schedules, I thought about it carefully and found that it made sense.

Xiaoju's current work and rest schedule is really bad. Although no serious illness has occurred yet, he has constant minor ailments.

Tomorrow happens to be the last day of the holiday, so I'll try writing less tonight and going to bed early, and spend the whole day tomorrow writing.

Chapter 574: The Ice Age That Freezes Everything

Although the Jinchūriki who had completely transformed into the form of a tailed beast had a strong presence, Han and Jiraiya had already left the main battlefield, so it did not cause any actual impact.

Whether it is the Iwagakure ninja or the Konoha ninja, they will fight the way they should.

Mu Yue originally wanted to press on with the victory, but many Iwagakure ninjas saw that Lao Zi was injured and quickly attacked Mu Yue, preventing Mu Yue from continuing to harm Lao Zi.

Most of the Iwagakure ninjas dislike Lao Zi because he is both a Jinchūriki and has a bad temper.

But this is on the battlefield, and they are at a disadvantage due to Konoha's conspiracy, so they need Lao Zi's power.

When the Iwagakure Ninja Corps was first formed, because there were already two Jinchuriki in charge, Ohnoki did not arrange other top masters from the Iwagakure Village.

If Lao Zi was killed by Mu Yue's combination of punches, the Iwagakure ninja troops would be in trouble.

"Earth Release: Rock Iron Cannon Technique!"

"Earth Release·Rock Pillar Spear!"

All kinds of earth escape techniques came towards Mu Yue.

Phew! !

Mu Yue calmly took out three Flying Thunder God Kunai from his ninja tool bag and threw out two of them.

"Tu Dun·Tu Liubi!"

A Iwagakure ninja quickly built an earth wall to block the kunai, preventing it from getting close to the attack range of the earth escape ninjutsu.

Whoosh!

Mu Yue activated the Flying Thunder God Technique and disappeared from the spot, appearing next to several Iwagakure ninjas.

He and Minato had made sufficient preparations, and they had set up Flying Thunder God techniques in advance at many locations. The purpose of the two kunai that were thrown out was actually to attract attention.

Swish!

Blood splattered as Mu Yue's kunai accurately cut the necks of the Iwagakure ninjas, taking the lives of several of them.

The other Iwagakure ninjas who saw this scene frowned and secretly cursed Flying Thunder God as a disgusting ninjutsu.

Being able to teleport by throwing kunai was annoying enough, but now they had fallen into a trap carefully prepared by the enemy and didn't even know where the enemy would teleport to.

"Cough cough."

Lao Zi coughed twice, condensed his chakra and stood above the small lake.

"Hoohoo."

Lao Zi was breathing heavily, trying to adjust his body's condition with the help of the tailed beast's chakra. He was feeling very uncomfortable now.

Although only four of Mu Yue's ten dragons hit him, it still caused considerable damage to Lao Zi.

His lava armor, which was strong enough to block Minato Namikaze's Rasengan, was useless against water dragons that had attribute restraint. Except for the first water dragon, which was slightly blocked, the next three water dragons hit his body solidly.

If he hadn't activated the tailed beast's chakra in time to offset some of the power, his current condition would probably be even worse.

"Hanyu Muyue!" Lao Zi stared at Muyue's flashing figure in the crowd with a serious expression.

After hard training and mastering the ability to fully transform into a tailed beast, this was the first time he suffered so much at the hands of a human being.

If there hadn't been other Iwagakure ninjas around to help him, he would probably have been defeated by Mu Yue.

"Use the complete tailed beast transformation and let Hanyu Muyue think you are going to fight to the death. Then I will lead the team to take advantage of the opportunity to deal with him!" Iwaku Youyou said as he came silently to Lao Zi's side.

Yanku really wanted to retreat, but given the current situation, he definitely couldn't retreat by force.

They have to kill some core characters among the Konoha ninjas, such as Jiraiya or Hanyu Muzuki.

Even Minato Namikaze is not suitable because he has a lower position in the current battlefield.

"Completely transform into a tailed beast here?" Lao Zi frowned.

Their location was the center of the Iwagakure ninja force. Because of this, Lao Zi only used the Lava Release Chakra Mode.

"Most of the ninjas had time to retreat to a safe distance. As for the small number of ninjas who were accidentally injured, this was a necessary sacrifice towards success." Iwaku replied quickly.

This was the best solution he could think of.

Even if Lao Zi led Mu Yue to the Five-Tails, it would be useless because Jiraiya was equally difficult to deal with. The injured Lao Zi and Han might not be able to defeat Mu Yue and Jiraiya.

But it’s different here. With the Four Tails fully transformed into tailed beasts, plus the five Jonins of the Iwagakure blasting corps led by him, and a large number of Iwagakure ninjas around, it is not impossible to kill Mu Yue.

Lao Zi showed a hint of hesitation.

Even though his status as a Jinchūriki had caused him to suffer a lot of criticism and discrimination, he subconsciously disagreed with Iwaku's words.

"If we don't kill Hanyu Muyue to create a chance to break out, more people will die in the end." Iwaku continued while the iron was hot.

If Lao Zi agreed, he wouldn't have to worry about having no one to share the spoils with.

After all, Ōnoki had been at odds with Laguna de Murasaki because of Laguna de Murasaki's stubbornness. When he reports, he can say something like Laguna de Murasaki disregarded the lives of his fellow ninjas and performed full transformation into a tailed beast. Then, wouldn't the blame for the defeat be lessened?

"You'd better really kill Yuzuru Muyue." Lao Zi sighed and closed his eyes slightly.

Iwaku was delighted and said with a serious expression, "Of course, I will do my best!"

Dark red chakra continued to flow out of Lao Zi's body, enveloping his entire body.

Along with a rising aura of brutality, another gigantic beast appeared on the battlefield, right in the center of it.

"In order to deal with Mu Yue, he actually used the complete tailed beast transformation in this position." Namikaze Minato looked at the red-haired giant ape with some surprise.

From Lao Zi’s current position, if he punches Mu Yue, it’s unknown whether Mu Yue will die or not, but several members of the Ivy League will probably die.

"Are you targeting me?"

Mu Yue's 360-degree eyes noticed one thing. After Lao Zi transformed, several ninjas with strong chakra were approaching him.

Although the Byakugan had seen through the opponent's chakra, Mu Yue still used a few identification techniques to be on the safe side.

【Name: Iwaku】

[Chakra: 71000]

[Skills: Explosive Release (Mastery level: 3100/15000), Earth attribute chakra property change (Mastery level: 3500), Explosive Release: Meteorite Explosion (Mastery level), Explosive Release: Exploding Stone (Mastery level)...]

【Name: Sandstone】

[Chakra: 41000]

【Name: Tu Ke】

[Chakra: 35000]

[Skills: Explosive Release (Mastery), Earth Attribute Chakra Nature Change (Mastery), Earth Release: Hardening Technique (Mastery)...]

"It's the Iwagakure Demolition Force."

Looking at the six panels that were all explosive, Mu Yue instantly knew that the six people who approached quietly were the Iwagakure Demolition Team, the strongest elite force in the Iwagakure Village.

But Mu Yue did not panic.

Since he has discovered the opponent's plan, the danger is much lower. In addition, he has the Flying Thunder God Technique that allows him to withdraw at any time and the Armament Haki that can perfectly protect his body, so there is nothing to worry about.

Seeing Lao Zi transform into a huge monkey, the Iwagakure ninja retreated quickly for fear of being accidentally injured.

Mu Yue followed at a faster speed, attacking the Iwagakure ninjas while moving towards the place where there were more Iwagakure ninjas, trying to make Lao Zi accidentally injure more Iwagakure ninjas.

Lao Zi made up his mind and did not give up the attack because of Mu Yue's actions. He jumped up suddenly and swung his huge fist towards Mu Yue.

When he is in full tailed beast form, he can use chakra to strengthen his body and launch physical attacks with great power.

boom! !

Lao Zi smashed a big hole on the ground, and in the hole were the bodies of two unlucky Yanyin.
