The Master of Konoha's Legacy

Those rushing forward now are all people who value loyalty and righteousness.

Those who would risk their lives for Minato Namikaze must have been people who believed in him.

It is a staple food that can be eaten.

Although he inwardly praised these people, outwardly, Tu Nan still had to go against his conscience and put on an act, coldly snorting:

"A clown."

The next instant, the Nine-Tails' eyes transformed into kaleidoscope shapes and began to spin rapidly.

"roar~"

"Boom!" A huge plume of smoke rose up, instantly enveloping the surrounding area.

"Puff puff puff~~"

Those outside the smoke could only hear a series of sounds, like sharp blades piercing flesh, coming from inside.

At the same time, a pitch-black iron rod flew out of the smoke and stuck into the soil in front of Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Bang!" A small wisp of white smoke rose, and the iron rod transformed back into the form of the Ape Demon King.

The Ape Demon King stood up, clutching his waist, and grimaced, saying, "It hurts so much!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at the Monkey King and saw that he seemed to be alright, then looked up again with a worried expression.

Sudden.

"Click".

Hiruzen Sarutobi clenched his left hand, hidden in his sleeve, and crushed his beloved pipe into several pieces. His expression turned grave.

"Oh no..."

A few breaths later.

"Fire Release: Great Fire Pillar".

The scorching flames transformed into a pillar of fire, rising from the ground and soaring into the sky, while the smoke dissipated.

Countless Konoha ninjas were stunned on the spot.

The nine-tailed fox showed no sign of pain while bathed in the pillar of fire.

And it has completely broken free of its restraints; the swamp beneath it has turned into scorched, hard earth.

The most terrifying thing was that the nine tails of the Nine-Tails were covered with countless Konoha ninja corpses.

Meanwhile, Masked Tunan stood with his hands behind his back, surrounded by pillars of fire alongside the Nine-Tailed Fox.

The corpses of Minato Namikaze and Kushina beneath him, along with the corpses of the Konoha ninja, were reduced to ashes in the flames.

But then, Tu Nan's black hair flew wildly in the flames as he slowly opened his arms and arrogantly declared:

"The sun will rise in about ten minutes."

May some of you see the sun rise tomorrow.

[Chapter 346 Absolute Crushing, Savior Appears]

(Two-in-one)

Hearing Tu Nan's arrogant words, the crowd felt indignant but lacked the confidence to refute him.

Each of them had their eyes reflecting raging flames, their fists clenched, glaring angrily at the masked Tunan standing atop the Nine-Tailed Fox.

Danzo now knew he couldn't just sit and wait to die.

Arriving beside Hiruzen Sarutobi, he said with a solemn expression:

Have you thought of a solution?

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression was ashen as he scrutinized the masked Tu Nan, trying to find a flaw. He whispered:

"With the help of those eyes, it will be too difficult for us to seal the Nine-Tails."

Danzo narrowed his eyes, staring at the pair of eerie, scarlet Mangekyou Sharingan revealed through the tiger-skin mask of the masked figure, and said in a cold voice:

"My men have just finished their investigation."

Recently, apart from the Hidden Mist battlefield, the rest of the Uchiha clan members have been in their clan territory.

This person possesses such formidable strength; he is very likely an older member of the Uchiha clan.

"We'll have to investigate his exact identity later. Let's get through this crisis first, or Konoha will really be finished."

After speaking, Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep breath and patted Danzo on the shoulder.

Danzo paused slightly, glanced at Hiruzen Sarutobi, and nodded in tacit agreement.

At this moment, the two seemed to have put aside their past grievances and returned to the time when they fought side by side in the First Shinobi World War.

Danzo clenched his fist tightly and said hatefully:

"The evil Uchiha clan. I have said long ago that they are a threat to the village. This clan should not exist in Konoha."

Hiruzen Sarutobi did not answer the question. He crouched slightly and said in a deep voice:

"Ape Demon, transform into the Vajra Ruyi Cudgel!"

Upon hearing this, the Monkey King disregarded the pain in his body and instantly transformed into the Vajra Ruyi Staff, falling into the hands of Hiruzen Sarutobi.

In an instant, Hiruzen Sarutobi seemed to transform back into the ninja hero who once dominated the battlefield of the ninja world.

An invisible aura spread out, drawing the attention of all the Konoha ninja and boosting their morale.

Hiruzen Sarutobi stared at the Nine-Tails and the masked figure standing atop its head, and began to make plans in his mind.

To defeat the Nine-Tails in its current state, it would probably require the use of the Five Elements Great Combo Technique, a super-powerful composite ninjutsu.

As for this masked man...

Perhaps one of us, Danzo or I, will have to sacrifice ourselves today.

However, the Four Symbols Seal might make it easy for the opponent to escape using space-time ninjutsu. Do I really have to use the Reaper Death Seal in the end?

Damn it... Minato is the only one besides me who knows this technique.

I should have found more promising young people to learn this ninjutsu.

In the blink of an eye, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't have time to think any further.

Hiruzen Sarutobi leaped forward, transforming into a streak of light as he charged toward the Nine-Tails, which was bathed in flames.

The stream of light split into five streams halfway through its journey, then dispersed.

Danzo, being an old comrade-in-arms, naturally knew Hiruzen Sarutobi's ultimate killing move, and immediately shouted the order:

"Let's all use ninjutsu from a distance to bombard the Nine-Tails."

The Konoha ninjas obeyed the order and formed hand seals, unleashing a variety of ninjutsu to bombard the Nine-Tails.

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique".

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique".

"Shadow Imitation Technique".

"Gentle Fist - Bagua Empty Palm".

"Lightning Release: Thunderclap Technique".

"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Bullet Technique".

"Earth Release: Earth Rock Barrage".

........

At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi and his four shadow clones had already taken their positions.

Then, the five Hiruzen Sarutobi turned their hands into afterimages, forming intricate hand seals, and shouted in unison:

"Five Elements: Great Continuous Bullet Technique".

Faced with the combined onslaught from the crowd, Masked Tu Nan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Masked Tunan naturally didn't need to worry about the Nine-Tails being unable to withstand the ninjutsu of ordinary ninjas.

Faced with Hiruzen Sarutobi's ultimate attack, Masked Tunan dared not let the Nine-Tails beneath him take the hit head-on.

It should be noted that Hiruzen Sarutobi's Five Elements Great Combo Technique is the pinnacle of composite ninjutsu.

The main body and four shadow clones each use ninjutsu of the five different attributes—wind, fire, water, earth, and lightning—to attack the enemy.

Not only is it powerful and has a wide range, but it can also cause devastating explosions.

Masked Tu Nan himself knew this move, so he naturally knew its power.

If Nine-Tails takes this attack head-on, it might not die, but it will likely be severely injured.

The masked Tu Nan, bathed in flames, had an indifferent look in his eyes as numerous ninjutsu were about to bombard the Nine-Tails.

Masked Tu Nan's left eye suddenly glared, and the scarlet kaleidoscope began to spin rapidly.

In an instant, an invisible spatial barrier seemed to appear around the Nine-Tailed Fox.

The dense barrage of ninjutsu struck the spatial barrier, creating ripples like dark spatial vortexes on a lake surface under a light drizzle.

Even the Five Elements Great Combo, hidden among many ninjutsu, when it hits the spatial barrier...

It merely created a spatial vortex several times larger than the original.

Of course, this is not a spatial barrier.

Instead, it was Masked Tunan who captured the trajectory of these ninjutsu through the terrifying dynamic vision of his Mangekyou Sharingan.

It was simply a small-scale Kamui activated in the direction these ninjutsu were advancing.

It's important to know that Masked Tunan's eye power is far, far greater than Obito's.

Even the power of the Eternal Kaleidoscope is only qualitatively superior to that of Tu Nan at this moment, but quantitatively it is far inferior.

For Masked Tunan, unleashing so much divine power in one go was merely a matter of greater consumption.

Hiruzen Sarutobi hadn't expected his opponent's space-time ninjutsu to be so powerful, and his expression darkened further as he thought to himself:

It seems we have to take down this masked person first.
