A ninja's mind is not easily broken; otherwise, they could not have survived countless life-or-death struggles to this day.
Moreover, they have a compelling reason to fight: the village is currently under invasion!
Moreover, if Kakashi and Akira Hatake's frontal advance is not effectively stopped, it won't be long before they openly and legitimately march all the way from the village entrance to the Raikage Building!
This is not only about killing people, but also about destroying their spirit!
The Cloud Ninja simply couldn't take it!
The wind fanned the flames, and with the help of the Wind Release ninjutsu, the fire dragon suddenly grew several times larger, carrying an overwhelming force as it pressed down on Kakashi and Akira Hatake.
but!
Bloodstained Elimination Blade Technique: One Slash!
With another slash, the fire dragon was split in two, and the flames vanished into thin air wherever the blade touched. It had no power whatsoever, not even a trace of its former might remained.
"So these are the Konoha Twins... This is terrifying!"
"What should I do! I can't win with taijutsu, and ninjutsu is useless!"
"how could I know!"
"If we don't come up with a solution soon, the Konoha Twins will launch a frontal assault on the Raikage Building!"
"I have no choice! Let's use human lives to fill the gaps!"
It must be said that in times of despair, there will never be a shortage of passionate people.
The same applies to Konoha and Kumogakure.
Kakashi looked at the Cloud Ninja charging towards him again, a slight ripple appearing in his cold eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
He admired and respected him, but it was wartime!
"Let me give you a grand finale!"
Kakashi gripped the Snowless Blade tightly with both hands, his chakra boiling, and the power of the Bloodline Elimination surged forth, covering the Snowless Blade in its most violent form.
Suddenly, he swung his sword!
"This is the only thing I can do for you..."
A phantom image, a kilometer long and a hundred meters wide, appeared in mid-air, its power of elimination by blood pure yet violent.
As Kakashi finished speaking, the phantom of the sword energy in mid-air crashed down!
Chapter 178 Minato Namikaze's Plan. (Seeking monthly votes!)
A single, earth-shattering strike fell.
What appeared ahead was no longer a road, but a bottomless ravine.
The surrounding buildings had long since disappeared, leaving the area bare and devoid of any human warmth, replaced by a desolate silence.
As for the Cloud Ninja who planned to use human lives to hold back Kakashi and Akira's advance, they had all vanished without a trace.
It wasn't the most perfect ending, but it was definitely the most magnificent curtain call.
Kakashi's ultimate strike made the Cloud Ninja remember him, and they also remembered the strike itself, as well as the Cloud Ninja who died by that strike.
Although the fallen Cloud Ninja were merely background figures, they still left behind proof of their existence in the world.
"call……"
Kakashi exhaled a breath of stale air, twirled his sword, and sheathed the sword "Unseen Snow" behind him.
"Kakashi, that's a beautiful sword!"
Behind him, Akira Hatake promptly offered his heartfelt praise, "Truly worthy of being my younger brother, the pride of the Hatake family!"
"No... I can't compare to my brother."
Kakashi smiled so much that his eyes narrowed into slits, but he still humbly shook his head.
"Alright, there's no need for this mutual flattery. Let's continue with the mission."
Akira Hatake quickly changed the subject, pointing to the seemingly insurmountable chasm ahead, "This sword is powerful, but how are we supposed to get across?"
The ravine in front of us is a kilometer long and hundreds of meters wide, almost splitting the Hidden Cloud Village, which sits atop the largest mountain, in two.
Following the direction of Akira Hatake's finger, Kakashi naturally took a look at his masterpiece. When asked the question by Akira Hatake, Kakashi scratched his head awkwardly.
"I didn't think that much about it at the time..."
"Never mind, let's just use Flying Thunder God."
Akira Hatake certainly didn't blame Kakashi. As he reached out and grabbed Kakashi's shoulder, he threw out the Flying Thunder God Kunai from his right hand.
Sa!
With the unique sound of the Flying Thunder God Technique accompanied by flashing silver light, the two brothers swiftly crossed the natural barrier carved by their swords and rushed towards the distant Raikage Building.
……
"The Konoha Twins have broken through our defenses head-on!"
"The Konoha Twins are rushing towards the Raikage Building!"
"Quickly! Gather all the important intelligence and get out of here!"
"With such a short preparation time, we can't take everything with us!"
"Burn it! We can't leave these important documents to them!"
"The Book of Seals! With the Book of Seals!"
The civilian ninjas in the Raikage Building were in complete chaos, with the three elders of Kumogakure adding to the confusion by issuing a constant stream of orders.
Give me the Book of Seals!
The First Elder of Kumogakure snatched the Book of Seals from the Third Elder's hand and headed straight for the back door of the Raikage Building.
The Third Elder was furious, but he didn't have a good solution. Now was not the time to argue about these things.
"Have you compiled the important intelligence yet?" he asked urgently.
“Most of them are here!” A ninja with a civilian job wiped the sweat from his forehead and pointed to a huge pile of sealing scrolls behind him.
Without hesitation, the Third Elder selected several Cloud Ninjas with a series of taps of his finger. "You, you, and you, come with me and take this important intelligence with you!"
"Yes!" The Cloud Ninja who were called upon acted quickly, each carrying a large stack of sealing scrolls.
Burn everything you can't take with you!
There was simply too much important information about the Hidden Cloud Village to be taken away all at once, so the Third Elder could only grit his teeth and give the order that pained him deeply.
These vital intelligence reports, which cannot be taken with them, contain a great deal of information, covering all the arrangements and plans of the Hidden Cloud Village. The loss of such information would cause immeasurable damage to the village.
Even so, the spy lists, ANBU ninja lists, ninja files, research successes, and so on contained here must be burned, but absolutely not left to Konoha.
Even the slightest leak of information about these aspects would be more distressing for the Hidden Cloud Village than a complete loss of intelligence.
Fire Release: Ash Pile Burning!
After the Third Elder left through the back door with several Cloud Ninja, the Cloud Ninja who stayed behind to handle the aftermath used Fire Release ninjutsu in an attempt to burn the large amount of information that could not be taken away.
Sa!
A soft sound,
Bloodstained Elimination Blade Technique: Consecutive Slashes!
Immediately afterwards, several continuous sword beams shot towards the high-temperature smoke cloud created by the Ash Accumulation Burning ninjutsu, and quickly cleaved it into ashes.
escape!
The civilian ninja who stayed behind to clean up the mess didn't even think twice before running towards the back door, without even considering glancing at Kakashi and Akira.
Having witnessed the strength of Kakashi and Akira Hatake, the civilian Cloud Ninja wouldn't make a foolish mistake while fleeing for their lives.
One glance is often the end of a lifetime.
"Stop chasing."
Akira Hatake slammed his hand on Kakashi's shoulder, stopping him from giving chase. "Let's organize this information and then wait for Uncle Hizashi and the others to arrive."
"Ok!"
Kakashi nodded, and seeing that the snow had been sheathed again, he and Akira Hatake squatted down to tidy up the various intelligence scrolls scattered on the ground.
At this time, the Raikage Building was deserted, and it was hard to imagine that it was the political and military hub of Kumogakure.
……
The northeastern defense line of the Land of Fire, under the command of Minato Namikaze.
Jiraiya handed over power to Minato Namikaze and personally sent a letter to Hiruzen Sarutobi. Minato's appointment letter also arrived early this morning.
Minato Namikaze is now the rightful commander-in-chief, having achieved the first significant accomplishment of his life.
This also marks that from now on, Minato Namikaze has officially transcended the limitations of his commoner class and become a rising star in Konoha.
It goes without saying how beneficial this would be for Minato Namikaze's future, but right now, Minato's attention is not on his own promotion.
"Teacher, Akira and Kakashi have launched a surprise attack on Kumogakure."
"Oh? So fast?"
“Ming and Kakashi have never disappointed.” Minato Namikaze smiled. “They will always be someone I can trust.”
"Your two disciples have truly matured." Jiraiya smiled broadly as well. "Now that you know this news, are you preparing for a full-scale attack on the Cloud Ninja forces?"
"Indeed, beset by internal and external troubles, there is no reason why the Cloud Ninja Forces could not be defeated."
Minato Namikaze nodded. "And I also told Akira to go easy on him, preferably over five days, and to launch a surprise attack on Kumogakure every day."
"This..." Jiraiya glanced at Minato Namikaze, then chuckled and cursed, "Slippery!"
Minato Namikaze's strategy was a combination of "besieging Wei to rescue Zhao" and "besieging a point to attack reinforcements".
The idea was to have Akira Hatake and Kakashi keep attacking Kumogakure, putting constant pressure on the village and forcing the Kumogakure frontline troops to retreat.
Furthermore, because Akira Hatake and Kakashi had previously disrupted the Kumogakure's war supply lines, the Kumogakure's frontline troops were experiencing a shortage of supplies.
With the Third Raikage dead, supplies insufficient, and their home stolen, coupled with the fierce attack from Minato Namikaze's forces, there was absolutely no reason why the frontline troops of Kumogakure would not collapse.
