but,

But you walked a little too fast.

Hozuki Mangetsu, who was known as a child prodigy, revealed a clear bitterness at the corner of his mouth.

However, he quickly dispelled such emotions, because he had already seen the huge gap between the two back in the Snow Country.

This is just another realization.

In this case,

Hozuki Mangetsu's gaze shifted slightly, finally settling on Kaguya Kimimaro, who was not far away. Even under the immense pressure created by that powerful figure, Kimimaro was the most upright-looking among the hundred-plus elite ninjas!

[Then let's start with you as our goal.]

The only person who can lead the Ninja Swordsmen is me!

A fierce fighting spirit reignited in his eyes.

But at this moment,

A familiar, cool voice rang out once again.

"Is this all there is to you?"

【What? 】

Hozuki Mangetsu, whose competitive spirit had just been stirred, experienced a momentary mental freeze upon hearing such a voice. His gaze shifted from Kaguya Kimimaro back to the boy he followed—no, the young adult.

He wasn't the only one to exhibit this behavior; all the ninjas on this land also displayed similar traits!

Similar speculations were resounding in their minds.

What that person was trying to express was...

"Is this all the power you have?"

The cold, clear voice repeated itself.

As he finished speaking, a genuine air of dominance emanated from him.

black,

Black, substantial chakra surged around him;

White,

A thin, white mist condensed behind it!

In an instant, the surrounding pressure intensified once again.

The cracked ground spread along the entire mountainside, and the trembling air was filled with an oppressive atmosphere that could not be dispelled!

The backs of the bloodline limit users, which they had barely managed to lift, were crushed again; the unruly evil ninja pressed their foreheads tightly against the ground, no longer daring to peek out; Feng Xin, Li, and Hei Chui Lei Ya could no longer resist the pressure, their knees completely pressed against the ground, only their trembling arms still supporting their bodies!

Black, solid chakra coalesced into the shape of a giant, protecting the boy's body.

The thin mist that gradually spread across the mountaintop poured out an obscure energy, as if countless unfamiliar gazes were looking down upon the humans below.

Black blood was flowing from Chino's eyes.

Even the legendary Blood Dragon Eye, which is said to be comparable to the Sharingan, cannot truly confront the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan, even if the user does not release direct malice!

However, her face did not show any dissatisfaction or negative emotions; instead, a genuine smile appeared on her lips.

because,

because!

The greater Lord Huang's individual strength becomes, the more stable their newly established homeland becomes!

That despicable guy.

[If I had known you wanted to establish your authority, I would have stayed on the border of Yugakure myself.]

I've already witnessed the power you possess firsthand in the Land of Snow, haven't I?

Zabuza Momochi knelt on one knee, gripping the hilt of his Executioner's Blade. His usually sharp and cold eyes were now filled with helplessness.

Having served as the Fourth Mizukage's personal bodyguard, he naturally understood the other party's intentions.

The first purpose is to demonstrate one's strength.

As the leader of a faction, one must possess formidable military strength.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to gain the respect of the masses in this turbulent environment, let alone become the backbone of this force, or even a more sublime belief!

This is especially important for an emerging power.

A powerful leader can not only instill fear in other surrounding forces, but also build confidence in this emerging power.

At present, there is no worthy opponent.

While directly displaying one's power in this way is the least effective method, it is still a necessary thing.

The second point is to foreshadow the man's own ambitions.

After all, in the near future, it will inevitably have to face that behemoth next door.

If your subordinates don't even know the strength of their master and have no confidence at all, how can they possibly set foot on that land?

Upon hearing that they would be facing such an ancient and powerful force, the morale of the army was likely already greatly diminished!

As for the last objective

Konoha possesses the 'Will of Fire,' symbolizing the endless cycle of life; Iwagakure possesses the Will of Stone, dedicated to the greater good.

The Hidden Mist Village is a place where only the fittest survive in the bloody mist; the Hidden Cloud Village is a group of barbarians who believe in force; and the unique environment of the Land of Wind has tightly united the Hidden Sand Village together.

Each of the five great ninja villages has its own will, spirit, or customs.

But what can a new force, composed of former playthings of the powerful, wandering rogue ninjas, and unruly bounty hunters, possibly possess?

The home you're talking about?

Well, that does have some appeal in the early stages.

However, this can only be maintained temporarily, and can only play a role in uniting against the invasion of other forces.

If one wants to achieve that ambition, it will never be possible to do so with just such a complex entity.

A mob will always be a mob.

Even if some of the cats and dogs among them are capable of harming people,

However, they were no match for a proper ninja village, even the severely weakened Kirigakure!

Therefore, there is only one way to resolve this awkward situation.

To cultivate a spirit or a belief.

The one in our field of vision is imitating Hanzo the Salamander, a demigod from Amegakure!

Why did the Land of Rain dare to declare war on the Village of Sand, the Village of Konoha, and the Land of Iron during the Second Shinobi World War? It was because of the strength of its leader that his followers were willing to entrust their lives, their will, their future, and everything else to him!

听,

right now,

The voice of faith has already sounded:

"As expected of my beloved Lord Ara,"

"You've become even stronger!"

Ringo Yuri completely ignored her surroundings and proudly praised them, even though she was under immense pressure and could hardly stand up straight, and her whole body was trembling uncontrollably.

but,

However, her voice remained high-pitched and excited, and her gaze was intense and fervent, without the slightest hint of negative emotion.

"Please, please guide me."

"Lead me to the pinnacle of the ninja world!"

Brilliant lightning erupted around the girl without a trace, and immense heroic spirit soared into the sky.

She believes in the power of the strong!

"Lord Ara's will is the meaning of my existence."

The cold words continue at this moment.

It is Kaguya Kimimaro, with long white hair, who, with the strongest martial arts bloodline limit, Shikotsumyaku, is the only one who can stand up in a meaningful sense!

Even so, its dense bones were still trembling slightly!

"I wish to follow Lord Ara forever."

"Please lead us to the pinnacle of this world!"

"........"

The surrounding noise grew increasingly intense.

Those ninjas who had been crushed to the ground by the oppressive aura began to struggle to their feet, their eyes burning with fervor as they looked at the young man standing alone atop the mountain, shouting their vows with all their might.

To possess such strength at such a young age represents limitless possibilities and a bright future.

The sooner you follow this lord, the more likely you are to be his direct descendant, and the more likely you are to share in his future glory!

[Goodness: ...the fanaticism.]

"Ah."

"Don't regret it."

"The price for climbing this mountain with me is enormous."

Huang looked at the commotion below with satisfaction, and the crimson in his eyes and the oppressive aura emanating from the surroundings began to slowly fade away.

"So, the first task."

"Guard this place for me."
