Konoha, reported by the Fourth Hokage at the start.

Chapter 151 Four Red Sun Formation

As Li Yao left, he saw the reactions of the mother and daughter, especially Gui Mo, through his shadow clone, and his lips twitched.

Well, this woman is completely lost in her own imagination. No matter what decision he makes, she won't think there's anything wrong with Li Yao until she's desperate.

However... it's hard to tell whether the mother and daughter were just lucky or if the enemy's methods were too clever.

The third generation and the others continued to follow Li Yao closely, unaffected by the mother and daughter's advances. The other party didn't even bother to chase the shadow clones, but instead pursued his main body directly.

Now Li Yao could finally be certain that either the other party could directly see his shadow clones, or they had a way to see through the shadow clones.

Regardless of the method, it was no use for Li Yao to use shadow clones again. He immediately dispelled all shadow clones, leaving only the shadow clones with Gui Mo and her daughter, and left with them.

Li Yao himself recalled the Black Iron Giant Eagle and switched back to the Ink Eagle, which he no longer needed to control, and continued flying forward.

"Let's see who can outlast whom."

Despite being pursued by the Five Shadows, Li Yao was not flustered at all.

The reason is simple. To paraphrase the TV series "Head Breaks the Sky," I was being chased by a bunch of Dou Di (Battle Emperors) behind me, but I wasn't worried at all because their horses couldn't run as fast as mine.

The combined strength of the five Kage truly extinguished Li Yao's desire to fight.

However, his opponent's movement speed was clearly comparable to his. He had enough chakra and food, so it was a matter of who could outlast whom.

"snort!"

A cold glint flashed in Li Yao's eyes.

After this chase, he'll definitely go to the battlefield of the Five Great Nations and kill all the ninjas who can't withstand his genjutsu chakra.

Let them know that the price of hunting him down is not something everyone can afford.

"Stop, this is it."

"Activate the barrier."

Just as Li Yao was about to walk out of the encirclement formed by four ninjas from the four countries wielding the Four Red Sun Formation sealing scroll, Kato Dan used his spiritual speed to notify the four of his decision to activate the barrier in the blink of an eye.

Without hesitation, the four of them stopped immediately upon receiving Kato Dan's instructions, put down the scrolls in their hands, opened them, gathered chakra in their hands, and pressed them onto the scrolls to break the seals as quickly as possible.

"Four Red Yang Formation!"

In an instant, four crimson beams of light shot out from the sealing scroll in front of the four people. Soon, a blazing crimson light curtain appeared between the beams, forming a cube-shaped barrier with sides of four kilometers, binding Li Yao... no, the time was too short, and Gui Mo and her daughter were also unable to escape, and were bound inside the barrier just like Li Yao.

"The barrier... is it really this large?"

On the back of the ink-wash eagle, Li Yao looked somewhat surprised. He had considered that the enemy might use a barrier to bind him and then surround and kill him.

However, the amount of chakra required for such a large-scale barrier technique is terrifying. With all five Kage gathered together, Li Yao didn't notice that the four people who were on a different path from the five Kage from the beginning were actually... Mito Uzumaki's chakra.

"I see!"

At that moment, Li Yao sensed that the chakra on the sealing scroll in front of the four people was familiar; it was Mito Uzumaki's chakra, and he immediately understood everything.

If you were to ask who else in the entire ninja world could single-handedly unleash such a large-scale barrier technique, it would only be Mito Uzumaki, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

Li Yao just didn't expect that such a massive barrier technique could be sealed inside the scroll by Mito Uzumaki... *snap*.

Li Yao suddenly slapped himself.

He was still careless.

Where did his giant scroll come from? Wasn't it the scroll of the Adamantine Sealing Barrier Technique that Sarutobi Tensuke used to create with the help of Mito Uzumaki?

He should have known that Mito Uzumaki possessed this ability.

Ultimately, it was Li Yao's carelessness that led to this.

Humans are a species that only remembers what they've been fed and not what they've learned, and Li Yao is clearly no exception to this species.

call out!

Li Yao continued flying towards the edge of the barrier. Although the barrier spell was complete, he could try to see if he could break through it.

Thump thump thump... The Third Generation and the others arrived at a corner of the Four Red Sun Formation.

When the barrier was activated, they were outside and unable to break in, so the person in charge of the Four Red Sun Formation needed to open a temporary passage for them to enter.

"Ayase, don't go in."

The temporary passage opened, and Biwa Lake blocked the daughter-in-law who had followed and was about to go in.

At this point, Ayase, a married woman, had given birth to her son with Li Yao and her figure had returned to its original state, but her heart could not return to its original state.

"I must kill Li Yao," Ayase said expressionlessly, looking directly into Biwako's eyes.

Biwako shook her head and said, "Just leave the killing of Li Yao to the Five Kage. You should know that you can't withstand Li Yao's illusions."

The Tsuchikage and his entourage entered the passage alone, without allowing the guarding ninjas to enter with them.

To be honest, Li Yao's killings on the border between Kusaka and Takizaka were a bit frightening to them.

Grass Village is one thing, but Takigakure was the only non-five great nation village to receive two tailed beasts when they were distributed.

It's worth noting that even Sunagakure, one of the Five Great Nations, only received one Tailed Beast.

This shows that Takigakure Village is quite powerful, with many strong individuals among its members.

But even in such a powerful hidden village, with over a thousand ninjas on the border, including many Jonin-level ninjas, not a single one could withstand Li Yao's genjutsu.

The combined number of ninjas from the two hidden villages was nearly three thousand, yet not one of them could withstand Li Yao's illusion technique; they were all slaughtered by Li Yao.

Such a powerful illusion technique is impossible for anyone other than a Kage-level expert to withstand.

No matter how many Jonin join the battle, they will only provide Li Yao with humanoid chakra fruits to devour.

It was precisely because of Li Yao's overwhelming slaughter of lower-level ninjas that the Tsuchikage and others realized that if they didn't kill Li Yao today, they would have to wait until one day when Li Yao actually faced their own hidden village.

Li Yao could kill everyone who couldn't withstand his illusions.

The key is that Li Yao also possesses the heart to kill.

That's terrifying.

The five Shadows were now determined to kill Li Yao today, no matter what, and absolutely not let him live.

"Let Ayase in," the Third Generation said.

Besides Sarutobi Tsukiishi, Ayase is also a backup plan. Bringing her along is to add another layer of possibility to killing Li Yao.

"I'll kill you with my life..." Biwako.

"There's no time, hurry," the third generation said.

With the third generation personally speaking up, and given that time was indeed of the essence, Biwako had no choice but to let her daughter-in-law in, even if she really didn't want her to.

Whoosh... The married woman Ayase joined the group that was besieging Li Yao, and the group of eight quickly rushed towards Li Yao's location.

The people who surrounded and killed Li Yao this time included the Five Kage, Kato Dan who possessed the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Tsukiseki who could open the Eight Gates Formation, and Ayase, a married woman who possessed secret techniques.

Before the crimson barrier, Li Yao stood on the back of the ink-wash eagle, a water ball the size of a billiard ball in his hand turning from transparent to pure white.

The Four Red Yang Formation is primarily composed of fire-attribute chakra.

Water overcomes fire. Li Yao frantically compressed the water sphere in his hand, pouring water-style chakra into it, until he reached his limit and felt the weight of it.

The white water sphere was like a solid, containing terrifying water-style chakra, and it was only thanks to Li Yao's control that it did not explode.

"go!"

Li Yao reached out towards the barrier, and with a thought, the high-pressure water ball, under his control, shot out like a bullet and instantly struck the barrier.

boom!

The highly compressed water sphere burst open instantly, like a high-pressure water bomb.

Splash!

The water cascaded down, and the high-pressure water balloon, the size of a table tennis ball, exploded, releasing hundreds of cubic meters of water, demonstrating the immense amount of water-style chakra injected and the tremendous power of the explosion.

However… looking at the unscathed crimson barrier, Li Yao sighed inwardly. As expected, it was a terrifying barrier technique that could block the Tailed Beast Ball.

Li Yao naturally recognized the Four Red Sun Formation at this moment.

When the water escape failed, Li Yao tried to use the Vajra Lock to devour it, but the Vajra Lock was directly ignited by the flames on the Four Red Yang Formation.

"Well, now it's a fight to the death."

Since we can't get out, let's fight and see who can kill whom.

With a thought, Li Yao created seven shadow clones that rushed towards the Hokage and his group.

Boom boom boom... On Gui Mo and her daughter's side, inside the belly of the Black Iron Giant Eagle, Li Yaoying's clone split into five shadow clones. Then, he took out a huge scroll from the Black Water Space, and the six shadow clones absorbed the chakra inside to fill the shadow clones.

"Ayase, Tsukishiro, you two stay here and see when the time is right to enter the battlefield."

With 1.5 kilometers to go, the Third Hokage ordered his wife Ayase and Sarutobi Tsukiishi to stop. The five Kage went first, while the two waited for their chance.

The five figures continued their charge towards Li Yao.

"Lord Hokage, what's charging at us is Li Yaoying's clone. His real body is still on the ink-wash eagle behind us."

In his mind, Kato Dan relayed the information he had sensed to the Third Hokage. The Third Hokage immediately notified the Four Kage that the attacking entity was a clone of Li Yaoying, and that they should not linger and should directly attack Li Yaoying's main body.

They knew that Li Yao could extract chakra from the giant scroll. If it came down to a contest of chakra quantity, the five of them would definitely lose. Their only option was to attack Li Yao's physical body directly and kill him as soon as possible.

"Earth clone".

"Iron Sand Clone".

"Shadow Clone".

"Lightning Release: Clone Technique"

"Water clones"

The five shadows immediately created clones of themselves, preparing to entangle Li Yaoying's clones while they continued their attack on Li Yao.
