Naruto: From the capture of the main family to the behind-the-scenes mastermind

Chapter 289 The sky... cracked!
The dull sound of flesh colliding sent ripples throughout the body. After who knows how many times of physical confrontation, Isshiki seemed to have accepted the result of being suppressed in this aspect, and his expression darkened.

"In terms of physical skills, your attainments are indeed superior to mine, but that's all. Even if you have the Samsara Eye of my ancestors, you are no match for me!"

Before he finished speaking, a chakra far superior to that of Uchiha Madara rose from Isshiki's body.

Hinata Yu looked at him leisurely, and the light blue chakra all over his body burst out.

Two chakras that seemed to be real collided in the clouds, and a storm appeared out of nowhere and raged.

……

"where is it?"

Ohnoki kept his eyes and ears open, alert for Wu who had entered stealth mode.

"Tsuchikage-sama, behind you!"

"Ok?"

Hearing the reminder from his subordinates in the distance, Ōnoki was about to dodge, but at the moment he turned sideways, there was a sudden slight sound from his waist, which made his pupils dilate and a muffled groan came from his nose.

Waist, his waist!

Ohnoki, whose old illness suddenly broke out, was hit on the waist by Wu's punch. He flew backwards and was not able to steady himself until he had flown dozens of meters away.

"--hiss!"

Adding insult to injury, the severe pain from his waist made Ohnoki almost unable to stand up straight, and his body trembled slightly involuntarily. He clenched his teeth, and beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

Seeing this, Wu followed him and did not pursue the victory, "You are getting old too, Oonoki."

Oonoki looked up and forced a smile, "Just some old problems."

"That means you are old. So, are you also old enough to covet power?"

"Is this how I am now in your eyes?"

Ōnoki slowed down, straightened his back, and his short figure became tall.

"That's really unfair. No one wants a qualified successor to appear in Iwagakure more than I do. But to be honest, I have not been able to train a qualified successor after taking over Iwagakure for many years."

"A qualified successor in your eyes will never appear." Wu said coldly, "Because you are not satisfied with yourself, how can you find a more perfect successor?"

"From the moment you were stopped by Madara, you lost something. Since then, you have never been able to face yourself for not being able to move forward."

As soon as he finished speaking, the light of Dust Escape emanated from Wu's palm, and the dazzling white light instantly enveloped the surrounding space.

Ōnoki responded with Dust Release, a dazzling light covering the sky, and said in a low voice: "Perhaps. From then on, I do hope that the Iwagakure Village will have a better leader than me, a successor who can lead the village to a stronger future."

Wu Wenyan disappeared, and his voice came into Ohnoki's ears from all directions, "After that incident, I did not deprive you of your qualifications, and the facts have proved that you have done well over the years. Even last time you faced Uchiha Madara, you changed your past actions and were able to face him directly."

"It's meaningless to just guard blindly. Even a baby in swaddling clothes will grow up one day. Trusting others is a skill. If Huang Tu takes over the position of Tsuchikage, what choice do you think he will make in the matter of cloning?"

Loess?
Huang Tu's initial attitude towards the clones was very different from his attitude towards the clones. If Huang Tu had handled the situation in his position, perhaps Iwagakure and the clones would not have come to blows...

Thinking of the relationship between Huang Tu and Kong, as well as his attitude towards clones, Ohnoki sighed secretly, "Is this what you are dissatisfied with me for?"

"Strictly speaking, there are a few other things that I am dissatisfied with, but from my point of view, this is the one I want to mention the most." Wu said noncommittally: "You can't protect Iwagakure forever. If you can't find a suitable successor, do you plan to stay in this position? Do you think it's my fault that the border Iwagakure betrayed you? Their dissatisfaction did not come together in one day."

"Even if you don't have this mentality yourself, it turns out that in the eyes of others, you are already on the path of greed for power."

He is so old that he can't even fight well, but he still sits on the position of Tsuchikage. Although Iwagakure also has a lack of young people, it is not as bad as Sunagakure. There will always be people who are dissatisfied with Ōnoki, but they have been overshadowed by Ōnoki's achievements in the past.

Now something has gone wrong and past dissatisfaction has erupted, leading to the scene at the border.

However, no one knows a son better than his father, and a teacher is like a father. As a teacher, Ohnoki's mentality is incomprehensible.

After all, when Wu watched Ōnoki grow up step by step, he himself also had similar anxieties.

"If you continue to hold this mentality, even if you hand over the position of Tsuchikage to someone else, you will not be completely relieved. Instead, you will intervene as an elder and cause conflicts."

"As a parent, you have to let go sooner or later!"

Glancing at the cyborgs surrounding him, Wu said a final word and suddenly accelerated his offensive, using Dust Escape and various Earth Escape techniques with ease.

Ōnoki collected his thoughts and responded calmly. The two fought from the sky to the ground.

It was not until the two of them simultaneously used the Heavy Rock Technique to attack each other and retreated that Ohnoki found an opening and said with a wry smile: "Master Wu, are you here to preach today? Or... do you want to persuade me to let go?"

Although it sounded like a preaching, Ōnoki heard another meaning in it: give up the position of Tsuchikage... give up ambition.

Wu: "Unification is inevitable and an irresistible trend. You understand."

"I am unwilling. Why can't it be the Land of Earth?"

"You know the reason better than me. If you are still unwilling to give up, just watch the next battle..."

At this point, Wu paused, looked at the sky obscurely, and whispered: "See if that kind of power can make you willing?"

From the beginning, the sky was wrapped in a low pressure, and it seemed that it had started there.

Boom!

There was a loud thunderclap on the ground. Two highly concentrated chakras collided violently in the air, erupting with a roar like thunder.

The shock wave spread out in a visible form, forming a powerful energy storm that seemed to tear the entire sky apart. Wherever the storm passed, the air was distorted, and the clouds were ruthlessly torn apart, revealing pieces of broken sky.

The ninjas fighting in the sky were forced to retreat again and again by this sudden energy storm.

Ohnoki only felt that the ground beneath his feet seemed to be shaking, and there was a suffocating sense of oppression in the air.

"This power..."

Oonoki muttered to himself, with a look of disbelief in his eyes, looking up at the sky.

I saw the clouds were completely torn apart, revealing a deep darkness, as if the entire sky was torn open by this force with a huge crack.

The rolled-back clouds were like a veil torn by an invisible giant hand, rolling and twisting in the sky.

It’s like, the sky… cracked open!
