Chapter 186 The Plan Succeeded

The defensive effect of this bracer is secondary; its main purpose is to conceal some senbon needles and ration pills inside for easy access. It also allows the user to pull out a scroll from inside and use the Lightning Sword twice.

The more skilled the opponent, the longer the battle will last, and there may not be time to slowly take things out of the ninja tool bag.

We can simply activate the mechanism on the wristband and shoot the ration pills into our mouths, which will save even more time.

1:24 AM.

As the moonlight was obscured by a dark cloud, a ninja from the Aburame clan's eyes flickered slightly.

"The parasites that were fostered there have been returned by reverse psychic communication; the time has come."

He was a member of the liaison team.

This information was relayed to higher management within seconds.

"Communication signal received! All troops, prepare to depart immediately!"

Upon receiving the signal from the liaison squad, Danzo, the nominal leader of this battle, was invigorated. He drew his staff and sword and spoke with great enthusiasm.

For this battle, Konoha mobilized almost all of its forces in the Land of Hot Springs.

Apart from the thousand ninjas led by Mimura Yoru to intercept the Kumogakure support force, there were only a thousand remaining at the main camp guarded by a veteran elite Jonin.

This is to leave a way out, in case this battle fails: the headquarters ninjas can provide backup and hold the line.

The remaining six thousand or so Konoha ninjas all gathered here, abandoning excess food and supplies, and traveled lightly, fully armed, and on a high-speed raid.

The advance team of twelve couldn't remain hidden indefinitely; they had to act quickly.

Among those twelve were three Jonin and nine Special Jonin. Losing them would undoubtedly be an extremely heavy loss. As the commanders of this battle, Orochimaru and Danzo would undoubtedly suffer the same fate as the Third Hokage.

Not to mention, if they arrive too late and fail to break through the Cloud Village's strongest defenses from within and without, and instead alert the enemy, the difficulty of this battle will increase exponentially, and there is even a possibility of defeat.

This battle, in a way, is also a gamble!

Six thousand ninjas set out simultaneously, raising clouds of dust and creating a deafening roar. They arrived outside the fortress in just over ten minutes.

The Cloud Village ninjas were not fools, of course. The sensory ninjas patrolling around the fortress had already relayed the information back, and knowing that the Konoha ninjas were coming, they were already prepared to meet the enemy.

It was the familiar clash of combined ninjutsu and armies. Konoha, once again relying on its deeper ninjutsu foundation and greater numbers, emerged victorious in this contest and besieged the city.

Just as they were about to face the most difficult moment of the attack, one side of the fortress wall suddenly collapsed.

Amidst the smoke and dust, the sounds of battle cries could be faintly heard.

"It's done!"

All the high-ranking members of the Konoha Ninja Army who knew the inside story couldn't help but feel a jolt of excitement.

When the Konoha ninja saw this, although they didn't understand why, they knew it was a good thing, and their morale soared. Led by several of Konoha's top fighters, they shouted battle cries and surged toward the breach.

Gen Uchiha, Orochimaru, and Danzo, the three strongest fighters from Konoha, charged ahead. Danzo, who wanted to make his contribution even more dazzling in this battle, used the most eye-catching fighting style and charged at the very front of the three. He unleashed all kinds of cool and dazzling large-scale wind release techniques as if he didn't care about his life, creating a remarkable momentum.

You could say Danzo was bad, or that he was narrow-minded and limited his thinking, but you really can't say he was incompetent.

If he were truly incompetent, he wouldn't have been able to do so many bad things.

Uchiha Gen was naturally pleased with this, and wielding his Sengoku Ninja Sword, he created several clones to follow Danzo around, doing nothing.

Danzo's actions naturally attracted the tougher opponents, making it easier for him to mow down the enemy.

The presence of top-tier experts like them on the battlefield can directly change the course of the battle.

Unless, an equal force comes to restrain it.

"Lightning Release: Lightning Plow Blade!"

A blue lightning bolt swept across the battlefield, arriving in the blink of an eye, and raised its elbow to attack Danzo.

The fastest ninja in the current ninja world, the Fourth Hokage A!

"Lightning Release Chakra Mode, Swift Ninja".

Danzo was also a veteran of many battles. However, more than thirty years later in the original timeline, due to physical aging and injuries, as well as years of pampered living, he lost most of his combat awareness, so his reactions were naturally timely.

"Wind Release: Vacuum Wave Barrage!"

One after another, extremely sharp, wave-like wind blades flew out rapidly, occupying most of the space in front of Danzo.

Danzo's Wind Release technique was almost at the pinnacle of ninja skill, with astonishing speed and power. In addition, given the elemental advantage between chakra types, even his father, the Third Raikage, wouldn't have dared to take those Vacuum Waves head-on, let alone the Fourth Raikage, A, whose skill was still a bit inferior to his father's.

At the same time, a phantom clone of Gen Uchiha quietly arrived beside the Fourth Hokage, A, holding a shining Rasengan in his hand, and pressed it down.

He had fought with the fourth generation of Ai several times, and they had gained a considerable understanding of each other.

Gen Uchiha knew how the Fourth Hokage, A, would retreat, and the latter had also guessed that Gen Uchiha would launch a sneak attack at this moment. With a nimble turn and a backbend, he avoided the Rasengan and grabbed Gen Uchiha's lower limbs with both hands.

"Thunderbolt Bomb!"

The phantom clones dispersed upon hearing the sound.

After only a few exchanges, it was enough for other powerful figures from the Hidden Cloud Village to join the battle.

"Molten Essence: Protective Desert Turbid Current!"

The large drum sprayed out yellow rubber liquid, which stuck, cooled and sealed the surging snakes released by Orochimaru on the ground.

Kaleido and Tsuchida, master and apprentice, arrived together and stood in front of Orochimaru.

However, what Konoha feared even more than this master and disciple was the burly man who was over two meters tall and had a head of blond hair as thick as a lion's.

"Sizzle—sizzle—"

A deafening roar of thunder emanated from the Third Raikage, whose lightning chakra armor seemed to solidify into a chakra cloak.

"Yuan, stand beside me and keep him at bay. Try your best not to give him a chance to get close to me."

Danzo's face was solemn, his cold eyes fixed on the Third Raikage.

In this era, no one can help but fear this man who is as wild and powerful as a lion.

"Elder Danzo, I will do my best."

Gen Uchiha exhaled a shallow breath, and his two scarlet three-tomoe Sharingan eyes spun at an extreme speed.

Almost instantly, the Third Raikage's figure rushed towards Danzo like a ghost.

He also knew that Danzo's Wind Release was the greatest threat to him and had to be restricted as a top priority.

Uchiha Gen's Sharingan has been closely following the Third Raikage's movements.

This guy's speed is not perfect; it's definitely top-tier in the ninja world. However, it's still not as fast as a true god-speed ninja like the Fourth Hokage, A. The three-tomoe Sharingan is enough to keep up with his speed.
