Chapter 94 Orochimaru: I have a general, the Edo Tensei Twin Shadows, invincible under heaven!

A few days later, the four ninja villages of Earth, Wind, Water, and Lightning almost simultaneously declared war on Konoha of the Land of Fire.

War has struck again without warning.

Four great powers launched a fierce attack on the Land of Fire from four different directions at the same time!
Although the younger generation of ninjas from various villages, such as Tsunade and Jiraiya from Konoha, are only just beginning to show their talents and have not yet fully grown into pillars of strength capable of standing on their own.

But the top leaders of the four major countries can't wait any longer.

In their view, if they cannot take advantage of the "window of opportunity" before the Land of Fire's new weapons are deployed on a large scale and before they have formed a complete and overwhelming technological gap, and cripple them in one fell swoop, then they will never have any chance to turn the tide!
What awaits them is only the tragic fate of being defeated one by one by the Land of Fire, and ultimately becoming a complete vassal.

In an instant, the entire border of the Land of Fire was engulfed in flames and war raged.

Konoha, a ninja village that had just been revitalized by chakra technology, was instantly dragged into the quagmire of a brutal war.

Faced with the overwhelming force of the four-nation alliance, Konoha Village had no choice but to bite the bullet and launch a defense on three fronts at the same time.

The eastern defense line faces the formidable onslaught of the Hidden Cloud Village.

With the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi personally overseeing the operation, and supported by the Root organization led by Danzo Shimura, as well as many experienced veteran ninjas, a solid defense was built.

The Hidden Cloud Village is known for its powerful Lightning Release ninjutsu and elite ninja forces, making this the most challenging part of the journey.

The southern defense line is Kirigakure (Hidden Mist Village).

Then, elite young ninjas such as Tsunade and Jiraiya, together with the newly formed alliance of the Land of Whirlpools ninjas, jointly resisted them.

Although the Land of Whirlpools has a small population, its people are skilled in sealing techniques, making them an important asset to Konoha on the southern front.

What surprised everyone the most, and what baffled the enemy the most, was the arrangement of the western defense line.

Facing the combined forces of the two great ninja villages, Sunagakure and Iwagakure, the commander-in-chief sent by Konoha was none other than Orochimaru!

"What? Orochimaru?"

Inside the Sunagakure command camp, the Third Kazekage looked at the intelligence report in his hand and almost twisted his beard in anger.

"Has that old bastard Hiruzen Sarutobi lost his mind? Sending some greenhorn to fight against the combined forces of our two great ninja villages?"

He, the dignified Third Kazekage, a Kage-level powerhouse hailed as the strongest Kazekage, was actually so looked down upon!
This is simply a shame!
"Hmph! Orochimaru?"

Inside the command tent of Iwagakure, the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, burst forth with astonishing rage from his short stature. He slammed his hand on the table, causing the teacups on it to clang loudly.

Onoki, with his Dust Release technique, has conquered the world. When has he ever suffered such humiliation?
The two Shadow-level powerhouses, in their respective tents, almost simultaneously had the same thought:

"That brat Orochimaru and Konoha must learn a lesson they'll never forget!"

"Not only must we win, but we must win decisively and cleanly! We must utterly humiliate him!"

The next day, the dawn broke.

Before the combined forces of Sunagakure and Iwagakure, the yellow sand swirled, and the atmosphere was grim.

The Third Kazekage moved, and countless magnetic sands gathered beneath his feet, lifting him slowly into the air. He eventually hovered high above, the dark sands churning behind him like a ferocious beast ready to devour its prey.

"Humph!"

The Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, snorted coldly, unwilling to back down.

He clasped his hands together and activated the Light and Heavy Rock Technique. The ground shook violently, and a boulder the size of a house was lifted from the ground, carrying him into the air, where he faced the Third Kazekage from afar.

The fact that two Kage-level powerhouses made such a grand entrance wasn't just for showing off.

For ninjas, reputation and prestige are of paramount importance, as they directly affect the quantity and quality of missions and, more importantly, the village's standing in the ninja world.

They wanted to declare in the most shocking way: the majesty of a Kage-level powerhouse cannot be challenged!
Orochimaru, a mere Orochimaru, dares to provoke two Kage-level powerhouses to join forces?
It’s simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!
In this battle, they will show Konoha what true despair is!

Seeing their Kazekage and Tsuchikage make such a spectacular entrance, the ninjas of the Sand Village and Iwa Village alliance were instantly filled with high morale, erupting in thunderous cheers and shouts.

"Lord Kazekage is mighty!"

"Lord Tsuchikage is invincible!"

In their view, the outcome of this battle was already decided.

On the other hand, the atmosphere in Konoha was rather heavy.

The ninjas instinctively turned their gaze to Orochimaru, who was standing at the very front of the group.

This disciple of the Third Hokage has rarely made public appearances on the battlefield in recent years, focusing instead on his various research projects.

But even with just the tip of the iceberg of his strength shown during the Chunin Exams, he was already enough to crush the vast majority of Jonin.

only……

Now he's facing two genuine Kage-level powerhouses!

Moreover, they were the Third Kazekage and the Third Tsuchikage, who were already famous and infamous!
"Lord Orochimaru... can he really manage alone?"

"One against two... this..."

Many Konoha ninjas felt uneasy and secretly swallowed. Looking at the two god-like figures in the sky, they felt a chill run from the soles of their feet to the top of their heads, and their palms began to sweat.

This is terrifying...

"You guys don't know anything! Lord Orochimaru is the strongest!!"

Upon seeing this, Hiruko shouted out, his face showing some excitement.

"Gentlemen, it's not too late to take your men back now."

Just then, Orochimaru smiled, took a step forward, looked up at the two menacing Kage-level powerhouses in the sky, and spoke in a calm tone.

His voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone present.

Calm, yet carrying an undeniable confidence.

"Heh! Kid, that's what I should be saying to you!"

Upon hearing this, the Third Kazekage seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world, and laughed in extreme anger.

With a sudden wave of his hand, the surging iron sand behind him instantly transformed into a black tsunami that blotted out the sky, emitting a shrill "whoosh" as it swept towards the Konoha army formation below!

"Ninjutsu, Iron Sand Burial!"

With this strike, he would bury these arrogant Konoha brats, along with that conceited Orochimaru!
"Ridiculous!"

At the same time, Onoki roared and attacked without hesitation. He hurled the house-sized boulder in his hand and activated the Weighted Rock Technique!

"Earth Release·Super Heavy Rock Technique!"

call--!
The giant rock traced a heavy path through the air, moving at an astonishing speed, and crashed down into the Leaf Village formation with immense force!

With the terrifying enhancement of the Weighted Rock Technique, the weight of this boulder instantly increased several times, or even dozens of times!
The two Kage-level powerhouses had a very clear objective: to use this thunderous first strike to completely destroy Konoha's army and crush their will to resist!
"Boom--!"

Iron sand roared like an angry dragon, and giant rocks collapsed like mountains!

Its earth-shattering power made everyone tremble with fear!
At this critical moment, Orochimaru still wore that enigmatic smile.

The next moment, his chakra suddenly erupted!
A powerful natural energy, far exceeding that of ordinary ninjas, emanated from his body!
Immortal mode!

Orochimaru's eyelids grew scales, and dragon horns grew on his forehead.

This is one of his research achievements over the years: Immortal Mode 2.0.

It skips the previous charging stage and can be started directly.

At the same time, he raised his right hand and aimed it at the iron sand that surged in like a black tsunami.

"Immortal Technique: Inorganic Rebirth!"

The unique magical arts of Ryuchi Cave can imbue inorganic matter with life and will!
Then, a strange thing happened!

The once overwhelming sea of ​​sand, which seemed to be threatening to devour everything, actually stopped abruptly less than a hundred meters away from the Konoha army formation!
It just abruptly froze in mid-air!
It was as if time had been paused at that moment!

"Um?!"

The Third Kazekage's pupils contracted sharply in the air. He continued to exert force, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

He had absolute control over his Magnet Release: Iron Sand, but how could that be...?

However, something even more shocking was yet to come!

Those still iron filings seemed to come alive, and began to wriggle and deform on their own!
The next moment, countless iron sands rapidly condensed, transforming into dozens of incredibly thick, massive drill bits that gleamed with a cold metallic light!
"Whoosh whoosh-!"

These iron shot drill bits changed direction and hurtled toward the huge rock that was falling rapidly from the sky at an astonishing speed!

"boom--!!!"

A deafening roar resounded!
Dozens of iron drill bits slammed violently against the giant rock!

With the enhancement of Sage Chakra, the hardness and penetrating power of these iron sand drill bits reached an unbelievable level!

That super-heavy boulder, which Onoki had high hopes for and which was powerful enough to crush an army into mincemeat, was actually drilled to pieces in mid-air by these iron sand drills!

Countless pebbles mixed with dust fell from the sky like a shower of flowers, yet strangely avoided the Leaf Village army formation below, landing on the open ground on both sides of the battlefield.

"What...what's going on?"

"Lord Kazekage...why did you attack Lord Tsuchikage's ninjutsu?"

The ninjas of the Sand Village and Iwa Village alliance were dumbfounded by this dramatic scene. They looked at each other, their faces full of question marks.

Is this... infighting within their own organization?

It shouldn’t be!

"Ok?"

High in the sky, Onoki was also taken aback. He turned his head and looked at the Third Kazekage beside him with some displeasure.

What kind of plane?
Even if we two old guys don't get along well in the long run, you can't just undermine me at such a crucial moment, can you?

This iron sand is clearly aimed at my stone!

"Forehead……"

"Um... I can't control those iron filings anymore..."

The Third Kazekage's expression was incredibly awkward; he was so embarrassed he could hardly save face.

He coughed twice and explained with some difficulty.

Upon hearing this, Onoki's expression instantly turned suspicious.

Are you kidding me?
When it comes to the ability to control iron sand, who in the entire ninja world can compare to you, the Third Kazekage who is proficient in Magnet Release?

You're telling me you can't control your iron filings anymore?
What a liar!
Could it be... that Orochimaru, that brat, was behind this?

Thinking of this, the two Kage-level powerhouses simultaneously turned their surprised and uncertain gazes to the calm and composed young man below.

However, the next moment, something even more astonishing happened to the two Kage-level powerhouses!
Below, Orochimaru had somehow deactivated Sage Mode and placed his hands on the ground!
Om-!
Two enormous and intricate black magic spells spread rapidly across the ground, centered on his palms!
Ok?
Is this... a form of psychic magic?

Both Onoki and the Third Kazekage were taken aback by what they saw.

Why is this kid summoning a spirit beast at this time?
Did he really think he could turn the tide of battle with just a small summoned beast?
"Ha~"

Noticing the questioning gaze from high above, Orochimaru's lips curled into a meaningful smile as he slowly spoke to the sky:

"Gentlemen, why don't you find two people you're more familiar with to spar with you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the white smoke from the psychic spell suddenly exploded, obscuring everyone's vision!
A moment later, the white smoke gradually dissipated.

From within the smoke, two exceptionally tall figures slowly emerged.

"Hahahaha! Is it finally my turn to appear?"

One of the figures, clad in magnificent crimson armor, stood with his hands on his hips, looking up at the sky and letting out an extremely bold laugh.

His voice was loud and clear, like a bell, and sounded quite cheerful.

The other figure wore a dark blue suit of armor, which, unlike the flamboyant red armor, appeared more composed and reserved.

He coughed lightly twice, a hint of helplessness in his voice, and said to the red-armored figure beside him:
"Ahem~ Big brother, watch your image, there are quite a few juniors watching behind you."

"Fuck!!!"

The moment they saw the two figures emerging from the smoke, the expressions on the faces of the Third Tsuchikage Onoki and the Third Kazekage, who were still suspended high in the air, froze instantly!
The next second, the two Kage-level powerhouses, who were renowned and highly respected in the ninja world, almost simultaneously uttered a vulgar phrase!
Their eyes widened in disbelief, as if they had seen something even more terrifying than the tailed beasts!

That mouth was big enough to fit a fist!
Cold sweat instantly soaked their backs!
Isn't that Hashirama Senju?!
