Naruto: By lying low and hiding, he eventually became the leader of the Legendary Sannin.

Hehehe...

Hahaha...

I can't believe it, I was right!

Even my illusion couldn't be seen through, Lord Golden Horn, your condition is indeed not right.

I never thought I would have the chance to kill a legendary ninja!

This is absolutely...wonderful!

Chapter 22 Dance, Boy in the Thunder

"I never imagined that one day I would have the opportunity to kill a legendary figure like you."

This is... absolutely wonderful!

As hundreds of voices rose from all around, the converging sounds startled the birds throughout the forest.

The echoes and the chirping of hundreds of birds gave Golden Horn a headache, and he subconsciously shut out all the noise.

A sinister smile reappeared on his face as he roared:

"Uchiha brat, you think you can scare me with such a simple genjutsu?"

Although I'm not good at illusions, but...

As he spoke, he had already formed a hand seal with one hand.

"untie!"

With a furious shout, the hundreds of Kaguras around them suddenly disappeared.

But the reality before his eyes shocked him once again.

Five Kaguras stood before him, but what surprised him was not the number of clones his opponent had created, but rather his form.

At this point, Kagura had transformed into the One-Tailed Beast Cloak form.

Unlike Kinkaku's bloodthirsty and violent chakra, Kagura's tailed beast cloak was milky white at this moment.

It really looked as if it was just wearing a semi-transparent raincoat, with a tail wagging behind it.

The aura of the tailed beast robe was peaceful and warm, without a trace of the tailed beast's madness.

Besides that, what's most striking is his eyes.

At this moment, the two tomoe in his eyes were spinning rapidly, and even a trace of blood and tears appeared at the corner of his eyes.

This is clearly a manifestation of pushing Kotoamatsukami to its limit.

Seeing this, a serious expression appeared on Jinjiao's face for the first time.

He asked Kagura directly:

"Kid, is that a Tailed Beast Cloak?"

No, there's no trace of a tailed beast.

But why does it possess the same power as the Tailed Beasts?

And your bizarre Sharingan...

Kagura did not answer Kinkaku's question.

At this moment, his previously broken right hand had been fully restored thanks to the healing and strengthening effects of the Tailed Beast Cloak.

The five "Kagura" slowly drew shuriken from their waists at the same time, and in a flash, they appeared in front of Kinkaku at the same time.

At this moment, Kagura's taijutsu, ocular jutsu, and chakra were all greatly enhanced by the Tailed Beast Cloak.

If we had to quantify it, he had already reached the level of a Jonin, and even closer to the level of a Kage.

Kinkaku smiled disdainfully at Kagura's attack.

However, just as he was about to make a move, Kagura's unique Sharingan flashed in his eyes.

Just as he was about to raise his hand to retaliate, he suddenly froze, pausing for half a second.

In ninja battles, even a half-second delay can determine many things.

"Qiang!"

Five Kagura shuriken accurately pierced Kinkaku's chest, producing a metallic clanging sound.

"Tch, it's not that simple after all!"

Kagura muttered something, but her body didn't stop. All five Kaguras simultaneously kicked out at Kinkaku.

"Boom~"

The golden horn was sent flying backward by the precise kick, crashing into several trees along its path and kicking up a cloud of dust.

The Kaguras did not give chase, but remained where they were, intently staring at the cloud of dust.

Gradually, the massive body of the Golden Horned Beast emerged from the gray mist.

A few streaks of lightning flashed across his body, clearly indicating that he had enhanced his physical body with lightning techniques.

This is precisely why Kagura's shuriken couldn't pierce his body.

With a sinister smile still etched on his face, he looked at Kagura and said:

"You brat, you want to kill me."

With that kind of ability, I'm afraid I couldn't do it!

Their figures blurred as they simultaneously charged at each other.

Unexpectedly, in the ensuing battle, both of them opted for close-quarters combat.

While relying on the enhancements from tailed beast transformation, they used shadow clones and Kotoamatsukami to carry out guerrilla warfare.

He relied on his powerful physique, excellent lightning release enhancement, and his unfathomable chakra to fight head-on.

Giant trees fell from time to time in the forest, and the sounds of flesh and weapons clashing could be heard frequently.

For a time, the two sides fought back and forth, resulting in a stalemate.

However, it was precisely this stalemate that made Kagura even more certain of his previous conjecture.

Jinjiao's condition is definitely not right!

He had a clear understanding of his own strength at that moment.

Although he possesses the strength of a Jonin, he is far from being a ninja of the caliber of Kinkaku.

Moreover, the fighting strategy that Jinjiao initially adopted towards everyone was not in line with his personality.

According to the plot, Jinjiao's personality should be characterized by being oblivious to others and having no patience.

This method of threatening students to ambush Hiruzen Sarutobi is more like something his younger brother, Ginkaku, would do.

On the other hand, the absence of Ginkaku and their four other famous ninja tools is also clearly problematic.

Most importantly, the system provides the option to kill the Golden Horn.

This indicates that the system believes these individuals have the potential to kill Golden Horn.

This also suggests that Jinjiao's current strength is not as great as he appears, which is why he used a scheme to end the battle quickly.

At this moment, Jinjiao also felt a sense of frustration.

After experiencing battles with Tobirama and the Third Raikage that year, his body had reached a very poor state.

Especially the pursuit by the Third Raikage, A.

He still remembered that battle when his younger brother, Silver Horn, was ambushed by that guy Aina and killed instantly by a single blow that pierced his heart.

He barely managed to escape after losing two ninja tools.

The reason I came to the vicinity of Konoha Village this time was because I was being chased all the way and had no choice but to come here.

But he never expected to encounter Hiruzen Sarutobi and his group here.

He knew he couldn't show his weakness at this moment, so his subsequent appearance, pursuit, and ambush were all pre-planned schemes.

The goal was to quickly kill these people in front of them.

But he never expected that after defeating Sarutobi, he would be held back by a little brat.

After repelling Kagura's attack from the right flank once again, his heart sank.

No, if we keep dragging this out, Ai might catch up with us from behind.

Thinking of this, he pulled the banana leaf fan out of his mouth.

Although I don't have much chakra left, I should be able to use it one more time.

As he mentally assessed the situation, the veins on his right hand bulged again, clearly indicating that he was preparing to wipe out the five "Kagura" in front of him in one fell swoop.

However, just as he was about to swing the fan, those Sharingan eyes flashed before his eyes again.

Just as he was about to wave the fan, his right hand holding the fan was struck by two "Kagura" figures that appeared out of nowhere, causing the fan to change direction.

"Tsk, those troublesome eyes."

Upon seeing this, Kinkaku, who had regained control of his body, immediately stopped channeling chakra into the fan.

Just as he looked up again, the five "Kagura" stopped their next attack and instead spread out, subtly surrounding him.

The five "Kagura" opened their mouths at the same time, and their tails stood up high.

A bright, sun-like orb of light gradually appeared.

Kinkaku, who was also in the Tailed Beast Cloak state, naturally knew what this was; it was preparing to attack him with a Tailed Beast Ball!

However, Kinkaku was not surprised but delighted. He knew a lot about the Tailed Beast Ball, so he also knew the weakness of this move.

That means the preparation time is too long.

Without hesitation, he immediately rushed towards one of the Kaguras.

The enormous banana leaf fan had been put away at some point, and his right hand was held upright in a hand-blade shape, with a layer of lightning appearing on the outside of the blade, making it look like a real battle sword.

Kagura saw that the one who was charging towards her with Kinkaku showed no panic on his face, but he immediately stopped gathering the Tailed Beast Ball.
