Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 566 Ninjutsu Variations

"How about we wait here for a while?"

"In my opinion, the Fifth Hokage can still hold out for a while."

This is not a battle for toads. Fukasaku Sage felt that when it was time to back down, he should back down a little.

I heard that the First Hokage also knew Sage Mode. That Madara Uchiha, just looking at that terrifying chakra giant, he was not someone to be trifled with.

It's best not to go looking for your own death.

"No, the Fifth Hokage's ninjutsu has already been countered by the First Hokage. We must go and provide reinforcements immediately!"

Although he was a little uneasy, Jiraiya was not a coward and insisted on going to provide support.

"What?"

Upon hearing Jiraiya's words, Fukasaku, still somewhat conflicted, took a closer look.

The fire dragon, which had just been fighting the first generation to a standstill, had perished along with the wood dragon controlled by the first generation, turning into a scattered mass of lava.

"It's in!"

Before the immortal could think further, a sudden gust of wind swept up around him.

A feeling of floating on clouds followed.

It turned out that he had followed Jiraiya and landed in front of the First Hokage.

"Oh, is it a toad from Mount Myōboku?"

Just as the First Generation had defeated the Flame Dragon and was preparing to finish him off, a tall, strong figure with a full head of white hair leaped into his path and blocked his way.

At first glance, his gaze was drawn to the two oddly dressed toads on Jiraiya's shoulders.

They immediately recognized where they came from and the traces of Sage Mode on Jiraiya's body.

"You're that guy who was with Tsuna last time, right? You've even learned Sage Mode, not bad... not bad..."

"Seeing so many talented people in the village is truly a heartwarming and gratifying thing!"

As he spoke, the First Hokage's figure blurred for a moment, and then appeared in front of Jiraiya.

"Master... um..."

When he saw the First Hokage and greeted him, Jiraiya originally wanted to call him "Grandpa".

After all, he married the other party's granddaughter.

But before he could even utter the word "Grandpa," his face, which had been full of eagerness, was suddenly slapped hard across the face.

"Uh... I wasn't vigilant enough!"

With a single punch, the First Hokage sent Jiraiya, who hadn't even had a chance to react, flying. His hands continued their movements.

"Wood Release: Great Forest Technique"

His entire right arm shot forward, aimed directly at Jiraiya, who was already bleeding from his nose. The First Hokage's entire arm seemed to transform into a vast expanse of living vines, wrapping around him.

"Watch out!"

Seeing Jiraiya still somewhat dazed, Fukasaku opened his mouth and spat out a straight, high-pressure water jet that sliced ​​through the vines.

"Kid, get out of here!"

Seeing that Jiraiya was still somewhat dazed, Shima quickly reminded him.

"Luckily you're in Sage Mode right now, which greatly increases your body's defenses, otherwise your whole face would have sunk in like that."

It didn't expect that the first generation would attack without even giving a warning.

"Oh no, watch out behind you!"

He was about to say something more, but Shima suddenly changed his expression and shouted anxiously at Jiraiya.

At the same time, he turned his head, opened his mouth, and spat out invisible wind blades that attacked the empty space behind him.

Just as the wind blade was unleashed, a figure clad in red armor appeared behind Jiraiya.

With just a few simple swings of his hands and a series of hissing sounds, the First Hokage swung his fist and smashed it into Jiraiya's back.

"Immortal Technique: Needle Earth Treasury"

Fortunately, Jiraiya realized what was happening and immediately started growing hair to cover his back.

Several strands of long hair also split off, like flexible tentacles, and wrapped around the First Generation.

This is... an attempt to restrict the other party's actions, and it seems he has succeeded.

"Watch out, it's a clone!"

A loud, aged shout rang in his ears, pouring cold water on Jiraiya's smug satisfaction at having just restrained the First Hokage's movements.

"They moved so fast!"

Turning around, Jiraiya didn't even care about his still-bleeding nose; he turned and ran.

Behind him, vines, just like his white hair, deftly wrapped around him.

"Seriously, one wrong move and I'm already at a disadvantage. The First Boss's fighting style... is truly cunning!"

To my utter surprise, my nominal grandfather gave me a hard time right after we met.

Without the Sharingan, he would probably have been attacked by now if it weren't for the two toad sages on his shoulders reminding him.

What troubled him even more was that the first generation behind him was chasing after him while also chatting with him about everyday things.

"Um, what's your name?"

"When I last saw you, you seemed to have feelings for Tsunade. How did it go?"

"Listen to me, you're not getting any younger. Stop being so picky; it's time to settle down and start a family!"

The First Generation leader really wanted to say that he didn't want things to turn out this way either. It was all the work of the Uzumaki clan member who was manipulating him.

But looking ahead, running like a rabbit, constantly changing direction, trying to distance himself from him, he regrouped and followed closely behind.

He still cares a lot about his granddaughter's current situation.

"Oh, has that ninjutsu changed?"

Chasing after Jiraiya, the First Hokage's figure had gradually moved out of the range of the Wood Release ninjutsu, but at this moment, the changes over there caught his attention.

In the raging fire of the Wood Release forest, an egg about thirty meters in diameter is constantly absorbing the surrounding flames and beginning to expand.

As it absorbed more and more flames, black lines began to appear on the shell of the giant egg, making the entire shell look like it had a solid form.

Suddenly, the black lines contracted, followed by a series of cracking sounds from the eggshell.

It's as if a life is truly being conceived inside a giant egg, struggling and waiting for the moment it will hatch.

Phew! !

A clear, high-pitched bird song rang out.

A fiery red bird, fifty meters long and with a wingspan several times greater, took to the air.

"This is truly an extraordinary ninjutsu!"

Watching this ninjutsu being created, the First Hokage's eyes were filled with amazement.

Whoohoo!

Before he could develop a more complex expression, the bird flying in the air flapped its wings, stirring up a large amount of heat, and swooped down towards him.

With a single beak, a thin flame descended towards him.

"Since we can still use Fire Release!"

Without hesitation, the First Hokage immediately abandoned his pursuit of Jiraiya.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the bird in the sky only spews out a small flame; once it leaves its mouth, its size begins to grow rapidly.

Moreover, the constant flight of the birds brought in a large amount of fresh air, allowing the concentrated flames they exhaled to burn even more fully.
