His body was smashed to pieces and dissipated into the air.
As the chakra dissipated, only Rōshi's corpse remained on the ground.
Chapter 108 Iwa Ninja Surrenders
Iori stood on the battlefield, the air around her filled with the smoke and dust of the battle.
The power of the Fantasy Treasure Artifact - Ruyi Jingu Bang (Monkey King's Staff) is unparalleled. Its extremely strong and yang nature caused the remains of the Four-Tailed Fox to completely dissipate, leaving no remains to be collected.
Iori scratched his head, somewhat regretfully saying, "I really got carried away. I should have cut off a piece of the limb for research material first. What a loss."
Then, Iori reached out and cut off Old Purple's head, using it for her own war merit and to intimidate the enemy.
He didn't linger there and immediately headed towards the main battlefield.
Before he arrived, the Iwa ninja had already begun to collapse.
The battle between Iori and the Four-Tails was so loud that they witnessed the Four-Tails' complete lack of resistance against Iori.
The morale of the Iwa ninja was severely damaged. Seeing their top combat force suffer a crushing defeat in front of the enemy, their confidence began to waver.
If it weren't for their own consistent advocacy of the unwavering will of stone, and the constant encouragement from the Jonin of Iwagakure, their lines might have completely collapsed by now.
However, after the Four-Tails dissipated, even with encouragement from the Jonin, the morale of the Iwa ninja inevitably plummeted.
With Iori's arrival, many Iwa ninja were prepared to sacrifice themselves. For over forty years, the Iwa ninja had nurtured their warriors; today was the day for them to die for their cause.
Iori pulled out Old Purple's head and said to them, "The Four-Tails Jinchuriki is dead by my hand. You have no chance of winning. Surrender!"
Higashi Shijin, a Jonin of Iwagakure, stepped forward and solemnly said, "There are only Iwagakure who die, not Iwagakure who surrender. We will die on the battlefield, and the new ninjas will carry on our will and continue to fight."
Iori laughed contemptuously upon hearing this: "Well said, but what does it have to do with you invaders? You came to invade the Land of Fire on your own initiative, so it's your own fault for being killed by the Konoha ninjas."
The Eastern Dead Man remained unmoved: "Perhaps. You who were born in Konoha cannot understand the pain of the Iwa ninja. We are also fighting for the future of our descendants."
Seeing this, Iori also lost interest in persuading them to surrender. Ninjas in the ninja world are no different from barbarians. When resources are scarce, their first reaction is always to rob, rather than to properly develop their own territory.
He raised his hand, and countless golden ripples appeared in the sky: "Surrender, or die!"
From the golden ripples emerged countless weapons, gleaming with a cold light. The intense pressure emanating from the chakra within these weapons caused some Chunin to tremble involuntarily.
Iori's words echoed in the air, like the declaration of death, telling them to choose their final fate.
Faced with Iori's attempts to persuade them to surrender, the Iwa ninja chose to resist in silence, even though some of them trembled under Iori's pressure and could no longer stand.
But none of them chose to surrender to Konoha; they preferred death to upholding the dignity and honor of Iwagakure.
Iori looked at them, sighed, and then said coldly, "Then die!"
As he spoke, countless weapons rained down from the sky, each gleaming with a deadly glint.
Having lived in the ninja world for over a decade, Iori could understand their thoughts, and out of respect, he decided to grant them a swift death.
"Escape: Earthflow City Wall"
The Iwa ninja did not sit idly by and wait for their doom, but instead joined forces to unleash defensive ninjutsu, piling up earthen walls layer upon layer, stretching endlessly.
Even though the Noble Phantasm was incredibly sharp, it lost its power after piercing through seven or eight walls of chakra earth, and could no longer cause fatal damage.
Iori looked at the earthen wall in front of her, stretched out her hand, and a spiral sword fell from the treasure vault into Iori's hand.
"Lightning is definitely more effective against earth-elemental attacks."
As Iori spoke, the spiral sword began to spin in his hand, with gales and lightning swirling around it, constantly destroying everything around it.
Iori raised her sword above her head, and a tornado arose around her, the gale mixed with the power of lightning, forming a destructive storm.
Just as Iori was about to swing his spiral sword and use the power of divine lightning to shatter the earthen walls of the Iwa ninja's castle, a beam of white light shot over.
"Dust Release: Limit Detachment Technique"
Onoki returned at the last minute and used Dust Release to attack Iori.
Iori's gaze swept quickly over the Konoha ninjas around him. If he chose to dodge, his comrades standing behind him would not be able to escape the attack of Dust Release.
A complex emotion flashed in Iori's eyes. He took a deep breath and said, "Sage Art: Susanoo - Susanoo-no-Mikoto."
As Iori unleashed her eye power, a colossal black giant rose up upon the earth.
The light from Dust Release struck the Sage Art: Susanoo, and the two powers collided in the air, emitting a dazzling light.
The Sage Chakra continuously countered the power of Dust Release, and eventually, the light of Dust Release completely disappeared, unable to penetrate the defenses of Susanoo.
Iori looked at Onoki and said, "Surrender, you've already lost."
Onoki looked at the giant in front of him with a complicated expression. Iori's Susanoo reminded him of the helplessness he and his teacher felt when facing Madara Uchiha.
At that time, even half a Susanoo would have been enough to leave the master and disciple helpless.
Although Onoki is no longer the weakling he once was, Uchiha Iori's Susanoo is not the same Susanoo with only half a body as before.
"We...surrender..." Onoki managed to utter these words with difficulty, as if they weighed a ton, making it hard for him to breathe.
In this battle, Iwagakure has lost two Jinchuriki and a large number of ninja.
Now, the remaining ninjas on the battlefield are the last elite of the Iwa ninja, the backbone of the village.
Onoki knew he couldn't let them die here. If these elites were to perish as well, the status and strength of Iwagakure would suffer a severe blow.
No matter how strong Onoki is, he is still just one person. To maintain the ninja village, mission rewards are essential. Once the Jonin are all killed or injured, there will be no manpower to complete the subsequent high-level missions.
Although Onoki was powerful, he knew he was just one person and could not support the entire village on his own.
The maintenance and development of the ninja village requires the rewards for missions and the joint efforts of the ninjas.
Once all the Jonin are killed or wounded, the village will face the predicament of having no one available, and no one will be able to complete high-level missions.
This would not only affect the village's economic resources, but could also cause employers to turn to other ninja villages to issue missions, something he could not accept.
Just then, Jiraiya rushed back from outside.
After a long battle, his Sage Mode has been deactivated.
He looked at Iori in surprise, completely bewildered that someone who should have just returned to Konoha would appear on the front lines of the Land of Earth.
Iori said to Jiraiya, "The Iwa ninja have surrendered. I'll leave the negotiations to you, Jiraiya-senpai."
Upon hearing this, Jiraiya, without having time to inquire about the reason for Iori's arrival, began negotiations with Onoki.
Chapter 109 The Birth of a New Medical God
Iori did not participate in the negotiations between Jiraiya and Onoki. For him, his work was done, and the remaining political negotiations were not his area of expertise, nor should he be involved.
He turned and walked toward his waiting friends. As she watched him approach, Kaori couldn't help but rush up to him and hug him tightly, as if she wanted to release all her unease and fear.
She had prepared herself to die when facing the Four-Tails. After being rescued by Iori, she was forced to rejoin the main battlefield and continue fighting against the Iwa ninja before she could calm down.
Now that the war is over, the pressure she had been under exploded in front of her lover, causing her to lose control of her emotions.
Iori smiled gently and stroked Kaori's back as if comforting a frightened child.
He said softly to Kaori, "Don't be afraid, the war is over. Let me go first and let me treat the other comrades. They need me more now."
A shy blush rose on Kaori's face. She let go of his hand and returned to her teammate's side, but her gaze never left Iori.
Nobuhiko stood aside, watching the scene before him, as if he were seeing his past self.
His thoughts drifted back to his youth, to the time when his love with his wife was just as innocent and naive.
He thought to himself, "Youth is wonderful. When I go back this time, I'll have a child with my wife."
Takumi teased with a hint of sourness, "Tsk tsk, you really smell like a couple. There's still a long time ahead of you, there's no need to show off your love now."
Suddenly, a flash of cold light appeared, and a few strands of hair fell from in front of Takumi.
Kaori maintained her smile and said, "If you want to be in a relationship, go find a girlfriend yourself, understand?"
Although she was all smiles, Takumi saw no smile in her eyes at all; she looked at him as if she would kill him if he said another word.
Takumi could only raise his hands in surrender and say, "Heh...heh...I understand. I wish you a long and happy marriage."
Sigh, I'm going to find a girlfriend this time I go back to the village. I can't stay single any longer; single people have no rights!
Iori, oblivious to these minor incidents, turned his gaze to Akimichi Tou. "Tou-senpai, please gather the injured ninjas together; I can treat them all at once."
Akimichi Tou's face lit up with joy. Iori's medical skills had deeply impressed the people on the front lines of the Land of Earth.
His offer to help treat the injured ninjas is undoubtedly a timely help for the front lines.
"Jaw, bring the injured ninjas here with everyone. Iori plans to use his spiritual weapon to help treat them."
Akimichi Tōdō mobilized his companions. Now is the golden period for emergency treatment, and every minute and every second is extremely precious and cannot be wasted.
"Bring the seriously wounded over first, then the lightly wounded. Don't get the order wrong. Iori-kun's chakra is also limited, so try to save it for the seriously wounded comrades."
He calmly directed the group, and the people around him nodded. Then they quickly separated, and the figures of the ninjas moved across the battlefield.
While searching for their seriously injured comrades, they also enlisted the help of the ninjas who were still able to move.
Soon, ninjas began bringing the seriously wounded to Iori.
Iori retrieved the "Perfect Repair" from the treasury, planted the staff in the ground, and poured a large amount of chakra into it, further strengthening the Noble Phantasm he had projected.
"I hope... there can be a world where we neither harm others nor are harmed by others... 'Pain Breaker'!"
As Iori spoke, the staff emitted a golden light. This release was different from the past; instead of emitting golden light spots, the staff directly formed a semi-circular barrier.
The barrier emitted a warm golden light, like the radiance of the sun, illuminating everything around it.
Golden smoke rose from the wounded, and their wounds were continuously repaired, even their internal organs.
This miraculous sight left the ninjas who had just brought the wounded speechless, their eyes filled with disbelief.
"Iori-sama's medical ninjutsu is more powerful than Tsunade-sama's. Shinsuke's internal organs were exposed. I thought he was going to die, but now he has regained his senses."
A ninja spoke in a low voice to his companion, his voice trembling slightly, as if he were telling an unbelievable truth.
Just as the group was marveling at this miracle, Akimichi Tou's voice boomed like thunder: "What are you all doing standing here? Go check if there are any more seriously injured people."
After being scolded by Akimichi Tou, the group dared not delay and quickly left the scene to continue searching for the wounded on the battlefield.
Seeing Iori's miraculous power, they became even more excited.
As Akimichi Tou watched the group leave, he couldn't help but think, "These young ninjas these days really lack composure; they make a big fuss over the smallest things."
