Naruto: Help Madara rejuvenate and launch a counterattack on Konoha

Outside the thick fog, on one side of the Allied Ninja Forces.

Hiyori activates his Byakugan to provide real-time updates on the battle situation within the dense fog.

"Lord Raikage is at a disadvantage. He has no sensory ninjutsu, and his home ground is a watery environment that is unfavorable to him. Senior Liaowu used the Water Dragon Bullet Technique to attack Lord Raikage."

"Oh no! Senior Liao Wu is skilled in water-based techniques; this environment is advantageous for him!"

Killer Bee rapped angrily: "Idiot brother~ How can you be so careless? You bastard Ryou~ How does he know brother can't use sensory ninjutsu?"

Killer Bee should have fought the Fourth Raikage and Ryougo before the Fourth Raikage. The Fourth Raikage is indeed very strong in single combat, but he also has many disadvantages.

For example, if he cannot sense ninjutsu, he will suffer from the Sharingan's genjutsu if he encounters it and there are no companions around to dispel it.

Danzo said to the Cloud Village's sensory ninja, "Quickly use your sensory ninjutsu to assist the Raikage in battle!"

Mifune intervened, saying, "Isn't this unsportsmanlike? They're having a fair one-on-one duel; outsiders interfering is breaking the rules!"

Mifune was a samurai, a group of people who were willing to sacrifice their lives for righteousness and exercised self-discipline.

Liao Wu and the Fourth Raikage are currently engaged in a duel on the battlefield, a one-on-one contest. If outsiders interfere with this competition, it would be breaking the rules.

It's not illegal, but it's immoral.

Danzo retorted to Mifune: "We ninjas are not samurai, we don't follow rules, and besides, Uchiha Ryogoku even brought a cat into the battle."

Mifune shook his head: "Danzo, don't think I don't understand ninja stuff. During the Chunin Exams, ninjas are allowed to use ninja tools and summoning beasts."

"Summoning beasts are also seen as ninja tools."

Danzo then looked at the Cloud Village's sensory ninja and commanded, "From today onwards, you are the Fourth Raikage's summoning beast. Go and assist your master!"

"..."

The Cloud Village group and Mifune were dumbfounded. Could this really be done?

Danzo is truly capable of anything!

Killer Bee stepped forward and rapped, "Idiot~ Bastard~ Don't try these tricks! Big Brother is a proud man. He'll never approve of relying on others to get out of trouble!"

Danzo looked at Killer Bee with a grim expression: "The Kumogakure's killer bees... The Raikage can't afford to lose, or it will demoralize the Allied Shinobi Forces."

Killer Bee shook his head: "~Idiot~Bastard~ It's already enough to demoralize us five great ninja villages with so many people fighting against just two people."

"Killer Bee is right. If we in Kumogakure lose, we lose. In a battle between men, it's either win or lose."

"A person must be able to accept defeat!"

The people of Yunyin also firmly stopped them, saying that one can lose, but one cannot stubbornly insist that one has not lost.

"snort!"

Danzo snorted and ignored the people from Kumogakure, listening intently to Hizashi's report on the battle situation.

Hiashi's voice was full of surprise: "Senior Ryouwu is using steel to attack Lord Raikage. This is Magnet Release. He can use the Sand Village's secret technique, Magnet Release."

Danzo's face darkened: "What's going on? How does this evil Uchiha know the secret techniques of the Sunagakure Kazekage lineage?"

The Third Hokage said, "It's probably information about Magnet Release that was extracted from Rasa's brain and then used for his training."

Liao Wu's true form can use Magnet Release. Even without Shukaku's assistance, he can still use Magnet Release. Having cooperated with Shukaku so many times, he has long since memorized the fusion method of Magnet Release.

However, it wasn't as smooth and easy for Shukaku to assist it, and the clones weren't being used as skillfully either.

He simply controlled poisoned kunai and shuriken to attack the Fourth Raikage.

Use whatever tricks you can think of!

Hiashi was sweating profusely as he watched: "Senior Liaowu's attacks are too unruly, specifically targeting the Raikage's eyes and genitals."

"They didn't hold back at all, constantly attacking the Raikage's father's generation!"

"Lord Raikage is starting to feel the strain."

"Oh no! Senior Liaowu used Wood Release to drag the Raikage into the water. He appeared behind the Raikage and is absorbing the Raikage's chakra."

"..."

Mifune was speechless. Even from a samurai's perspective, Ryougo's fighting style was too underhanded.

He asked the Third Hokage, "Hokage, is this how the ninjas of your village fight?"

The Third Hokage gave a somewhat awkward laugh.

Although ninjas strive for deadly strikes and aim to hit vital points, such cunning individuals are still rare.

Even members of the Root Clan would not attack the enemy's relatives during a battle.

Only people with extremely bad personalities would both hit a dam and curse their parents.

Danzo stroked his chin, quite admiring Ryogoku's fighting style. That's how battles should be—the more disgusting the enemy is, the more effective it is.

If the enemy is disgusted, then it means the offensive is working.

The strangest thing is that samurai would inexplicably develop a mutual respect for each other while fighting, which means that they weren't hurt and were just exchanging blows.

Instead of a life-or-death struggle!

The Third Hokage advised the people of Kumogakure, "That brat Liao Wu has used every dirty trick in the book. That's enough. Let the Raikage come back!"

The Cloud Village's sensory ninja nodded; he too was using ninjutsu to sense the battle situation within the thick fog.

Liao Wu not only insulted the Fourth Raikage but also resorted to underhanded tactics, showing a complete lack of tact. Meanwhile, the Fourth Raikage couldn't control his temper.

They've been led by the nose by Liao Wu all along; if this continues, they'll lose badly.

It's better to end things gracefully now.

It's not that the Fourth Raikage was weak, but rather that his abilities seemed to have been leaked to Liao Wu.

Liao Wu knew the Fourth Raikage's strengths and weaknesses, knew his personality traits, and knew how to make him unable to calm down.

The Cloud Village's sensory ninja channeled chakra to the Fourth Raikage: "Lord Raikage, please calm down!"

The Fourth Raikage's body, activated by Lightning Release, possessed strong defensive capabilities, and Liao Wu's kunai could not break through the Raikage's defenses.

Even if they wanted to absorb the Raikage's chakra, the Raikage's thick skin and flesh meant that his chakra meridian system was protected by a layer of lightning armor.

It's not easy to absorb; you can only absorb the opponent's chakra after the Fourth Raikage has exhausted his strength.

"Shockingly brutal!"

The Fourth Raikage concentrated his chakra in his elbow, intending to burn it with his elbow.

Liao Wu quickly dodged.

The Fourth Raikage seized the opportunity and burst out of the water.

A sensory ninja from Kumogakure said, "Lord Raikage, the misty environment is putting you at a huge disadvantage. Please retreat!"

"snort!"

The Fourth Raikage snorted coldly, not out of anger at his own sensory ninja for telling him to step back, but out of dissatisfaction with himself.

The Fourth Raikage finally realized his shortcomings.

He lacked sensory abilities, had no long-range ninjutsu, and couldn't calm down. After becoming the Raikage of Kumogakure, the Fourth Raikage trained relentlessly.

But in the face of the strong, one's own disadvantages will be magnified infinitely.

In my future spiritual practice, I must make up for my shortcomings.

The Fourth Raikage roared, "Uchiha Ryougo, I've lost!"

After admitting defeat, the Fourth Raikage transformed into a bolt of lightning and disappeared from the thick fog on the river, returning to the Allied Shinobi Forces' position.

The Fourth Raikage's voice was so loud that even those in the Allied Shinobi Forces near the shore heard him admit defeat.

No one was surprised.

They would be even more surprised if the Raikage won.

Because Liao Wu's achievements have already been reported to the three armies: he single-handedly stormed Sunagakure, killed the Fourth Kazekage, and stole the One-Tailed Shukaku.

He stormed into Takigakure and defeated Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin; Minato, the Yellow Flash of Konoha; and Shisui, a master of genjutsu from the Uchiha clan.

Such a record already ranks among the top in the ninja world.

The Allied Shinobi Forces were originally formed to defeat Uchiha Madara and Ryougo.
