Little Goku's Great Adventure Starting from One Piece

Chapter 407 An Insurmountable Gap

Whoosh—!

Neji, with his Byakugan activated, moved nimbly across the battlefield, constantly searching for suspicious targets.

However, such a large-scale search is extremely taxing on his mind and chakra. His Byakugan was already bloodshot, and there were even streaks of blood running down from the corners of his eyes.

Finally... he had to temporarily stop rolling his eyes, catch his breath, and give them some rest.

"Headquarters should already know that White Zetsu has infiltrated the Allied Shinobi Forces. I wonder if they have come up with a countermeasure."

Neji covered his sore eyes and muttered to himself.

During his search for White Zetsu, he encountered several standoffs within the Allied Shinobi Forces. Fortunately, he arrived in time each time, uncovered the disguised White Zetsu who was hiding among them and causing the conflict, and brought the truth to light.

Otherwise, who knows what terrible consequences might occur.

However, his strength was limited. On this battlefield filled with tens of thousands of people, his role was limited to a small area, and he could not reach other places no matter what.

Just as his mind was in turmoil, a white Zetsu silently appeared behind him, a sinister smile curling at the corner of its mouth.

Unexpectedly, there was a lone ninja here, who looked to have used up a lot of chakra, making him an excellent target for a sneak attack.

Furthermore, after killing the other party, he can disguise himself as them and infiltrate the Allied Shinobi Forces to continue assassinating others, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone!

The White Zetsu bared its sharp teeth, raised its right hand, and attempted to unleash a Wood Release attack to pierce Neji's back.

Just then, an invisible wave swept in from afar, passing right past the two of them.

Neji was completely unaware of this, but White Zetsu suddenly stiffened, the light in his eyes vanished, and he collapsed with a thud.

Um? ! !

Hearing the commotion right behind him, Neji, whose attention had been somewhat distracted, finally snapped back to reality. His body tensed abruptly, and without thinking, he jumped back from his spot, simultaneously drawing his kunai and swinging it backhand in an attempt to block the attack from behind.

But his swing missed its mark; there was no attack coming from behind at all.

Neji's face showed surprise.

As he swung his hand back, his body turned around due to inertia, and his gaze fell behind him, he saw a White Zetsu lying motionless on the ground.

Was the noise just now not an attempt to kill him, but the sound of someone falling down?

But why did the other person collapse for no reason?

Clang!

The two kunai clashed fiercely in mid-air, sparking a string of sparks.

Kakashi and Obito were locked in a fierce struggle, staring intently at each other, their expressions icy cold.

Suddenly, the two realized something and retreated almost simultaneously, instantly creating a large distance between them.

The two of them kept most of their attention fixed on each other, but glanced around as if checking something.

But the shouts of battle that had filled the surroundings suddenly decreased significantly, as if the fighting in several areas of the battlefield had suddenly ended at the same time. This obviously strange situation made the two of them feel uneasy and suspicious.

What exactly happened?

"Hand him over now! Or don't blame us for being impolite!"

In some corner of the battlefield, the Mist Ninja still protected Nobu behind them, who had nearly caused a catastrophe, but the pressure on them was immense...

...

The difference was enormous, because the number of Cloud Ninja in front of them had increased significantly, nearly doubling their numbers!

"Yes, just hand him over. This kid clearly did something wrong. He did something like this on the battlefield, and he has to pay the price for his actions. What's the point of protecting him like this?"

Several ninjas from other villages also spoke up to dissuade them, because they didn't want anyone on the battlefield who would stab their comrades in the back.

Seeing that not only the Cloud Ninja, but also the Leaf Village and the Sand Village had stood against them, the Mist Ninja broke out in a cold sweat, their faces filled with great difficulty, unsure of what to do.

Shinji, who was being protected behind them, was actually a disguised White Zetsu clone. Seeing this, he knew that the Mist Ninja could not protect him for long, so he decided to take this opportunity to kill a few Mist Ninja and then escape into the earth.

Do it when you think of it.

The White Zetsu clone revealed a malicious smile, suddenly raised its hands, activated Wood Release, and a large number of sharp branches sprouted from its arms, stabbing towards the several Mist Ninja who were close at hand.

None of the Mist Ninja noticed, but a few Cloud Ninjas not far to the side saw this scene, but they were stunned and couldn't react for a moment.

At this critical moment, Goku's Conqueror's Haki spread over the area, instantly severely damaging the White Zetsu clone's spirit, turning it into an unconscious idiot, and then causing it to collapse helplessly to the ground.

Upon hearing the commotion, the Mist Ninja turned around and saw their familiar companion, Nobuyuki, whose appearance, body, and other aspects had rapidly transformed into White Zetsu!

"What, what's going on? Xinzhi, what happened to Xinzhi?!"

Not only were the Mist Ninja dumbfounded, but the Cloud Ninja, who had been furious earlier, also froze in place, their minds blank for a moment.

At this moment, several slug clones crawled over from not far away, their crisp sounds echoing in everyone's ears.

"Lady Tsunade has instructed me to inform you that an unknown number of White Zetsu are disguised as our comrades and are hiding within the Allied Forces, plotting something sinister. If you discover anyone attacking our comrades, do not hesitate to subdue them immediately!"

Upon hearing this sound, everyone finally reacted, staring incredulously at the motionless White Zetsu lying on the ground.

So they were all fooled by a White Zetsu from beginning to end?!

But... how could someone who just tried to kill a Mist Ninja suddenly fall down for no reason?

The group looked at each other, none of them able to figure it out for a moment.

"Damn it!! How did a Jinchūriki end up here?!"

Tsunade wasn't the only one to spot Naruto; A also did, after discovering that the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki had inexplicably arrived from Turtle Island...

Inside, Ai was extremely angry.

Without thinking, he rushed towards the direction where Naruto had fallen.

No matter what method he uses, he has to get the other person out of here!

Upon seeing this, Tsunade quickly came to her senses and immediately gave chase.

Since Goku and Naruto had landed not far from them, A, who was quite fast, quickly arrived there.

"Nine-Tailed Brat! Who sent you?!"

Upon seeing Naruto, A confronted him aggressively.

Naruto was completely stunned. He had intended to use the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique to send his clones to various locations to eliminate White Zetsu, but he did not expect to suddenly sense that all the White Zetsu on the battlefield had fallen down at the same moment!

"Wukong, did...did you do this?"

He seemed not to hear Ai's question at all, and turned his head to stare intently at Wukong.

Although he could sense an invisible fluctuation emanating from Goku's body just now, thanks to his extremely strong perception in Sage Mode, he still couldn't help but ask.

Because what just happened was so astonishing, tens of thousands of White Zetsu fell to the ground simultaneously in an instant, no matter how far away they were from Goku.

Even the White Zetsu, which was seven kilometers away, could not escape that force.

Naruto had never seen anything like this before, so he hoped to get confirmation from Goku.

"Yes, I did it. Those guys aren't good people." Wukong nodded.

The moment his Observation Haki covered him, he understood from various situations that White Zetsu was the current enemy of the Allied Shinobi Forces. He also heard many shinobi spreading the word that White Zetsu had disguised himself as a comrade to attack his own people, which further confirmed his suspicions.

Then his Observation Haki locked onto all the White Zetsu.

Those White Zetsu who disguised themselves as members of the Allied Shinobi Forces, making them indistinguishable to everyone, could not escape his lock. This was because his Observation Haki could detect the malice in the other party. The malice in these White Zetsu all came from the same source, making it easy for him to identify them.

Then, needless to say, his Conqueror's Haki swept out like a gentle breeze, stunning all the White Zetsu he had locked onto, resulting in the scene we see now.

"Hiss—! It really was you, Goku. You're incredible."

Upon hearing Goku's answer, even Naruto, who was usually very quick to learn, couldn't help but gasp.

Although he was confident that he could capture all the White Zetsu in one fell swoop, it would take a lot of time and require his clones to travel around.

But Wukong simply stood still, without moving a muscle, and instantly completed the task.

The difference between the two is like heaven and earth.

"Hey! You nine-tailed brat! Did you even hear what I said?!"

A, left out by the two, was twitching incessantly, his face contorted with rage as he clenched his fists, the size of sandbags, wanting to punch Naruto.

Naruto finally turned his head and looked at the Raikage, saying in a low voice, "Raikage-san, you and Tsunade tricked me, didn't you? All that talk about training to improve my strength was just to keep me from participating in the war. But I don't want to dwell on those things now. I just want to do everything I can to protect everyone."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Tsunade, who was a step slower, finally arrived.

Before she could say anything, Ai angrily retorted, "Protect everyone? With your insignificant strength!"

Did you know that on the battlefield, not only will you fail to protect others, but you'll also force others to divert their energy to protect you?

Despite being belittled, Naruto showed no anger, only a firm look in his eyes as he said, "I have mastered the Nine-Tails' chakra. Now I have enough strength to protect everyone, and we also have Goku. Goku will help us too. Just now, he defeated all the White Zetsu here."

"What did you say?! White Zetsu was defeated by Goku?!" It wasn't A who responded first, but Tsunade. She looked at Naruto with a shocked expression, then at Goku.

The reason she arrived so late was not only because she was slower than Ai, but also because she heard the news from the slug along the way.

The slug clones, which had already dispersed to various locations, witnessed many White Zetsu inexplicably collapsing. Those who missed witnessing it also heard the discussions among the Allied Shinobi ninjas and the sight of the White Zetsu lying on the ground when they arrived at the battlefield.

After all the information was put together, a startling conclusion was reached: the White Zetsu had apparently lost their fighting ability for some unknown reason!

Tsunade, who had been pondering this matter since arriving here, was momentarily distracted by Naruto's arrival. However, she was taken aback when she heard Naruto say that the White Zetsu had been defeated by Goku.

"That's right! It's incredible, but Goku just took care of all the White Zetsu, including those disguised as Allied Shinobi!" Naruto nodded seriously.

He was unaware of this at first, but when he sensed that the chakra of many ninjas had suddenly turned into the chakra of White Zetsu, and heard the voice of a slug telling the Allied Shinobi the story of the White Zetsu's disguise to the Allied Shinobi in the distance, he realized what had happened.

"What?! Are you serious?!" Tsunade's pupils contracted. Although she had this suspicion, she couldn't confirm it yet, since the slugs hadn't spread to the entire battlefield.

"Mmm!" It was Wukong who nodded this time.

He looked at Tsunade and said, "I've defeated all those white villains, but there are still some guys I don't quite understand fighting with Uncle Jiraiya, Uncle Guy, and others."

After saying that, he scratched his head.

When his Observation Haki covered him, he naturally noticed those resurrected through Impure World Reincarnation. However, their auras were particularly strange, lacking any trace of human life. Moreover, many of them seemed harmless, yet they still fought alongside the Allied Shinobi Forces.

"You must be talking about us, those who were resurrected through the Impure World Reincarnation, Goku."

A voice suddenly came from not far away.

Goku, Naruto, Tsunade, and A looked over and saw two men dressed in black coats with red cloud patterns arriving together.

"Nagato?! Itachi Uchiha?!"

"Five Elements Seal!"

After exchanging blows with Hanzo for several rounds, Jiraiya, with his now-greater strength, severely injured Hanzo. Then, when Hanzo's body was broken and unable to move, Jiraiya struck him with a palm, sealing his body in place.

After doing all this, he showed no joy, because he had recently received news that the past Kage of other ninja villages had appeared on the battlefield where he was.

.....

These resurrected Kage are almost as powerful as they were in life, and with the immortality granted by the Edo Tensei, they are virtually invincible in the Allied Shinobi Forces.

Even he could only deal with one, and couldn't eliminate the opponent immediately.

Meanwhile, Kakashi, Might Guy, Bunga, and other strong individuals who could stand alone in the army he commanded were mostly still being held back by the reanimated ones.

In this situation, who else could help him deal with those reanimated shadows?

The thought weighed heavily on Jiraiya's mind.

Because before those powerful enough individuals to restrain the Edo Tensei Kage can free up their hands, the unstoppable Edo Tensei Kage will inflict immeasurable casualties on the Allied Shinobi Forces.

Jiraiya sighed inwardly and wanted to rush to the nearest location of the Edo Tensei Kage, but he stopped abruptly after only a short while because two people were blocking his way.

It was none other than the Second Mizukage, Hozuki Gengetsu!

And the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura!
