Naruto: I, who fooled the ninja world, was hailed as a savior.

Chapter 288 Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explodes!
Boom! !
Hinata Kumokawa disappeared into the depths of the incredibly thick rock layers of Chibaku Tensei.

Immediately afterwards, a chilling sound of rocks shattering suddenly emanated from within the Earth-Exploding Star, as if something was frantically destroying and tearing apart from its depths!
Accompanied by this dense, muffled sound, the entire enormous sphere began to tremble violently!
"Lord Yun Chuan! He..."

"It works! It really works!"

"Attack! Attack those cracks! Don't let Lord Yun Chuan's sacrifice be in vain!"

This sudden change gave the Konoha people below, who were originally in despair, a sudden boost in spirits, as if they had seen a lifeline, and their instinct for survival was instantly ignited.

They screamed and shouted, their eyes burning, desperately squeezing out the last of their remaining chakra.

One ninjutsu after another was desperately bombarded at the ever-spreading crack, attempting to tear this damned thing apart completely from the inside!

"Yun Chuan!"

Might Guy, who was being toyed with by "Espada No. 7", was sometimes pulled into the sky by gravity and sometimes slammed into the ground by gravity. He couldn't help but let out a scream when he saw this.

He suddenly twisted his body and punched "Seventh Blade of the Ten Blades" away. Then he poured all his strength into his arm and aimed it at the huge planet Earth Explosion in the distance!

"Day Tiger!!"

A white tiger, composed entirely of compressed air and exuding a terrifying aura, suddenly materialized!
Wherever it passed, the air twisted and exploded, carrying an indomitable and tragic momentum, as it blasted towards the area with the densest cracks on the surface of the Earth-Exploding Star!
Boom! Crack! Snap!

The "Day Tiger" exploded violently, and its ferocious impact raged wildly in that area, clearing away large swathes of rock!

Thick cracks spread rapidly outwards from the center of the pit, tearing and shattering in all directions, with countless huge rocks collapsing as if the structure were disintegrating!

"Who is that guy?"

Seeing the power of Might Guy's attack, Pain, who was already hiding in the shadows, suddenly changed his cold expression.

Seeing the damage caused by Hyuga Kumokawa and Might Guy, a look of disbelief and anger flashed in his eyes!
Then, he suddenly raised his hands, clasped them together in front of him, interlocked his fingers tightly, and poured in more chakra like a tidal wave.

"Aha!"

He tilted his head back, a roar bursting from the depths of his throat, his expression contorted by the excessive force he was exerting, veins bulging on his forehead, neck, and even arms!
In an instant, the terrifying gravitational force generated by the Earth-Exploding Star suddenly surged again!

"Ugh!"

"not good!"

Many Konoha ninjas who were barely clinging to the larger boulders and forming hand seals had their rocks instantly torn to shreds by the suddenly increased gravity!

They only had time to let out a short scream before their ninjutsu was interrupted, and their bodies, now without support, were mercilessly dragged into the sky at several times the speed!
The surrounding ground was lifted and broken in layers, and more ruins, debris, and even the still-standing building skeletons collapsed and disintegrated under this surge of gravity!
It transformed into an even more turbulent torrent of rocks and metal, soaring into the sky and crashing down on the disintegrating planet!

Bang! Bang bang! !
Under Pain's all-out, relentless effort, the cracks and gaps created by the explosion were quickly filled and covered, forcibly stabilizing the collapsing structure once again!
The deep interior of Hyuga Kumokawa, along with the violent sounds emanating from within, vanished completely, seemingly losing all trace.

"..."

Fear surged like a tidal wave, instantly engulfing the hearts of every survivor below.

All the struggling Konoha ninjas stared blankly at the rocky celestial body that had not only not shattered, but had instead become even larger and thicker.

The glimmer of hope and excitement that had just appeared on their faces froze completely, then turned into utter ashen white and despair.

"Lord Kumokawa."

"Is this kind of power truly something that human beings can resist...?"

Someone murmured absentmindedly, their voice trembling uncontrollably.

Some people blankly loosened their grip on the kunai, letting their bodies be slowly dragged into the sky by the gravity, their eyes losing all light, leaving only an empty despair.

"Hyuga Kumokawa!" Jiraiya clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his palms, and bright red blood dripped down between his fingers, but he seemed oblivious to it.

"Sigh." Fukasaku sighed, somewhat moved, but still advised, "Jiraiya, run away. Although you can't save everyone, you can still save some people."

"..." Kakashi opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but no sound came out, and his body flew into the sky uncontrollably.

It's over. Konoha is finished.

"Trash! They're all trash!"

A middle-aged man who looked like a businessman was clearly driven mad by fear, flying uncontrollably through the sky while screaming hysterically.

"What's the point of you high and mighty ninjas collecting so much tax from us all day?"

"You can't even protect your own village? How can you face the Hokage who died before you?!"

"I don't want to die!" a woman cried out in heart-wrenching agony. "Didn't you say you'd protect us? Why? Why?!"

"What a load of bull! What kind of Hokage are they? What kind of Sannin are they? They're all useless! Konoha is finished! We're all going to die here!"

More curses and desperate cries erupted, directed at those high-ranking officials they had once trusted.

Hearing these piercing curses, Hiruzen Sarutobi's face turned ashen, his lips trembled, but he couldn't utter a sound of defense. His hunched figure seemed to have aged another ten years.

The wound on his abdomen was still bleeding, staining his divine robes red. He could only urge the ape demon to try to save as many people as possible.

hum!
A deep yet penetrating buzzing sound, seemingly coming from the distant horizon, clearly drowned out all the cries and curses, reaching everyone's ears.

Everyone involuntarily looked up.

In the distance, at the base of the aerial fortress suspended in the clouds, the massive cannon once again shone with a chilling light, golden lightning bolts surging and converging wildly!
Clearly, the enemy was wary of the potential threat posed by Hyuga Kumokawa and wanted to take advantage of the moment when he was sealed away and Konoha was completely unable to resist to deliver a final, fatal blow.

This was undoubtedly the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The final despair gripped everyone's throats, silencing even the curses.

In the distance, Might Guy watched Hyuga Kumokawa's reckless charge, watching as the faint light and sound he brought were completely wiped out, leaving no trace.

Even this steely man couldn't help but shed hot tears.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

He let out a roar of grief and rage, the power of the Eight Gates within his body surging wildly, and the light armor formed from 'Gluttony' hummed, steam billowing around it.

"Well done, my dear friend! My youth must not be left with regrets!"

His eyes became resolute and crazed, and he suddenly crossed his arms in front of him, his aura beginning to surge towards a violent direction.

Although he wasn't sure if his current 'binge eating' could keep him alive, Hinata Kumokawa's self-sacrifice had made him completely determined.

However, just as he was about to desperately break through the final "gate of death," in this moment of utter silence, when everything seemed predetermined.

boom! !

A powerful and unfamiliar aura, yet imbued with holiness and majesty, suddenly erupted from the depths of the deathly silent and heavy Earth-Exploding Star above.

The aura was so vast and powerful, like a sleeping sun awakening from deep darkness.

"That is……"

Everyone who sensed this aura widened their eyes in that instant, their hearts pounding uncontrollably.

The next moment, a dazzling and incredibly sharp golden light burst forth from the depths of the rock layers of the Earth-Exploding Star!

From the inside out!

From bottom to top!

The light easily sliced ​​through layers of hard rock, and irresistibly penetrated the massive structure of the planet Earthburst!

Undeterred by its momentum, it plunged headlong into the high-altitude clouds, piercing through the churning cloud layer!
Then, slash downwards!
Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explodes!
laugh!
