Master, please become the Hokage

Therefore... Hanzo considered and agreed to Danzo's negotiations, and formed an alliance with Konoha.

As a supporting force, Xiao was naturally invited to participate in this battle.

When it comes to the survival of the country, everyone has a responsibility, and Xiao is no exception.

Jiraiya's eyes widened in disbelief as he watched the three familiar yet transformed figures appear.

"Yahiko? Nagato? Konan?"

After Jiraiya left the Land of Rain, he continued to hear the legend of Akatsuki.

But then Xiao disappeared.

Some say they were killed.

But now, they appeared before his eyes alive, how could Jiraiya not be surprised.

The addition of the demigod and the prestige that this title represented made the Iwagakure ninjas start to panic a little.

At the same time, he faced Konoha White Fang, Demigod, Sannin... these legendary masters.

Even if we have an absolute advantage in numbers, we will naturally feel nervous.

Especially...Iwagakure was also resisted by Sunagakure led by Hakura.

In other words, Iwagakure is fighting against three ninja villages at the same time with its own strength!

This not only foreshadows the strength of Iwagakure.

It also indirectly shows how weak Konoha has become.

Seeing that the morale of the army was wavering, several commanders of Iwagakure acted decisively and immediately activated the power of the tailed beasts.

The first one to transform into a half-tailed beast was the Five-Tails Jinchuriki.

As a scarlet beam of light shot straight into the sky, everyone saw the light stirring the clouds.

The next moment, an extremely powerful chakra reaction appeared on the surface.

This reaction is so powerful that even a perceptive ninja can observe it!

"Is it Jinchūriki..."

A cloud of smoke rose up, and Jiraiya and Orochimaru landed on the ground.

They both looked over there at the same time.

Soon, a lightning-fast figure came rushing over from a distance.

Orochimaru didn't even have time to remind Jiraiya before he attacked him on the spot.

"Pfft~!"

Jiraiya spat out a mouthful of blood and was instantly knocked away.

It crashed backwards into the trees, breaking more than a dozen large trees before it finally came to a stop.

"Roar......"

When the scarlet figure appeared, Orochimaru slowly turned his head.

"Ho ho..."

Orochimaru, known as the Three Ninjas, showed a serious expression on his face for the first time.

Chapter 88. Five-tailed Jinchūriki

During their many years of ninja career, Orochimaru and Jiraiya had seen Jinchūriki before.

The two of them even have some experience fighting against Jinchūriki.

but......

There has never been a Jinchūriki who behaves like this.

It's not about borrowing the chakra of the tailed beasts, but about changing the pupils, teeth, and other physical features.

Nor is it the foamy, transparent chakra coat of the tailed beast that changes after further activating the tailed beast chakra.

This form, with its body covered in scarlet, its eyes turning white, and it lying on the ground like a shrunken tailed beast, was something Orochimaru and Jiraiya had never seen before.

Also known as.

Orochimaru and Jiraiya have seen the complete form of Shukaku, the one-tailed beast, because the Sand Village has deployed it on the battlefield many times in the past.

But what about this miniaturized form?

Orochimaru and Jiraiya, who were only able to see the full picture during the Shippuden period, are now able to see this form more than ten years earlier.

I saw a strange man with a scarlet body...lying on the ground.

The three dancing tails fluttered behind it like wild silk.

Just one strike made Jiraiya lose his fighting ability.

You know, Jiraiya at least has the title of Sannin, and is a strong man with the strength reaching the level of Kage.

This kind of danger made Orochimaru's expression even more solemn.

"It's not Lao Zi...it's Han..."

Orochimaru identified the opponent's appearance through the outline of the other party as the Five-Tails Jinchuriki of Iwagakure...Han.

Because if it was Lao Zi, his appearance would be different, and Lao Zi is better at the molten chakra mode.

"Wind Style..."

Immediately, Orochimaru formed hand seals and used the most powerful wind-style technique as the starting point of the attack.

To deal with a monster like a Jinchūriki, one naturally has to use the most lethal moves.

However, just as the B-level Wind Tornado formed and swept towards Han...

"Hoo~~~!"

Han opened his mouth and roared loudly. The chakra shock wave started from his body and suddenly formed a physical shock wave visible to the naked eye.

The shock wave hit the Wind Style Tornado, and the latter was destroyed instantly.

"!"

Watching the ninjutsu being shattered by a roar in one blow, Orochimaru's pupils slowly dilated.

The next moment, he no longer hesitated, and directly pressed his hands on the ground, summoning various kinds of poisonous snakes.

Snakes of all sizes attacked Han from all directions.

Faced with the siege of the snakes, Han just rushed forward and turned the snakes into debris all over the sky.

All kinds of poisonous blood and flesh flew everywhere.

It was only then that others reacted.

"Jiraiya-sama~~!"

"Y-It's the Jinchūriki~~!!"

Various exclamations were heard in Konoha.

Faced with the Jinchūriki who suddenly joined the battlefield, their side seemed to be in a complete disadvantage again.

But luckily, at least there is only one Jinchūriki here.

Another Jinchuriki, Lao Shi...seems to be having a head-on confrontation with Ye Cang on the battlefield on the Sunagakure side.

Without any pause, Orochimaru took out the Kusanagi sword from his mouth.

The whole person turned into an afterimage and rushed towards Han with incredible speed.

As the Kusanagi sword thrust out suddenly, the sharp blade that even the Monkey Demon could not withstand pierced directly into Han's body surface.

laugh!

The Kusanagi sword succeeded and penetrated a little.

But that's all.

The extremely high density of chakra covering Han's body prevented the Kusanagi sword from penetrating further.

The next moment, the chakra claws of the tailed beast suddenly grew out from behind Han and suddenly grabbed Orochimaru's body.

Then, under the incredulous gazes of everyone, Orochimaru's body was pulled and torn.

With just a crisp sound, Orochimaru's body was pulled into two pieces alive!

If it were an ordinary ninja, he would have died in an instant.

But Orochimaru does have the ability to save his life after all.

A brand new Orochimaru came out of the broken upper body's mouth.

"It's a bit tricky... hehe..."

Orochimaru looked at Han, thinking about his battle plan against the Jinchūriki.

I originally planned to rely on Jiraiya's Sage Mode.

But the opponent made Jiraiya lose his fighting ability right from the start, which was not good.

If even the Kusanagi sword cannot pierce the tailed beast coat, it means that we can only fight a war of attrition with Han.

Until White Fang is free to come.

or......

Orochimaru turned and looked deeper into the camp.

Konoha's secret weapon, Kushina of the Uzumaki clan.

Relying on the Uzumaki clan's sealing technique...the Diamond Seal, it is possible to restrain the power of the tailed beasts.

As long as Kushina holds him still, then he can...

......

"The enemy's Jinchūriki has been dispatched, and Lord Jiraiya has lost his combat effectiveness with just one blow..."

At the back of the camp, Nohara Rin, who had treated Jiraiya, immediately spoke to Kushina.

Kushina, who came with her, was standing next to the battle-damaged Minato Namikaze.

On such a large-scale battlefield, even the Golden Flash would be stretched to the limit.

After all, Flying Thunder God can only harvest on a small scale, thus maintaining a balance between damage and mana consumption.

Once a long distance is crossed, using Flying Thunder God will rapidly consume chakra.

By then... I'll be exhausted to death before I defeat the enemy.

"Ahem... I was careless..."

Jiraiya leaned against the broken tree, spitting out blood.

Generally speaking, ordinary ninja's physical skills cannot have such lethality.

It's not a sharp weapon injury...

However, the man with three tails is just that powerful.

How powerful would they be if four, five... or even the tailed beasts turned into complete forms?

"Lord Jiraiya, please stop talking..." Nohara Rin said to Jiraiya in an anxious tone.

"Minato-sensei..."

Standing behind Kushina, Obito, who was arranged by Minato Namikaze to protect her, couldn't help but look expectant.

He hoped that his teacher would be able to show his great power and kill the Five-Tails Jinchuriki.

However, this was not something Minato Namikaze could do immediately.

"Obito, things like the Tailed Beast Jinchūriki..."

Minato Namikaze's eyes flickered and he began to explain.
