Naruto: Starting with the Two Kamui

The city walls collapsed, and countless clones with identical faces stormed into the city, stepping over rubble and corpses.

The ninjas behind Takitsubo, no matter how unwilling they were at this moment, could only swallow their resentment, turn around with tears in their eyes or grit their teeth, and run towards the city to complete the mission they had been given!

With a whoosh, the surviving members of the Sarutobi clan walked silently across the blood-red moat on either side of the city, their eyes filled with the resolve to die, gathering behind Takitsubo.

"I want to stay and fight alongside everyone!" Behind them, a four-year-old child, whose teeth hadn't even fully grown in, shouted at the top of his lungs, tears streaming down his face.

An elder of the Sarutobi clan held onto Konohamaru tightly, saying, "Konohamaru, you need to understand what everyone is risking their lives to protect..."

"No, I want to stay with everyone!!" Konohamaru stubbornly shook his head, and the old man had no choice but to knock him unconscious.

Takitsubo glanced behind him out of the corner of his eye: "Where the leaves dance, the fire will never cease. The firelight will illuminate the earth and allow new leaves to sprout. I entrust this to you, Konohamaru... The will of fire of the Sarutobi clan must be passed on by you."

Turning her gaze away, Takitsubo said sincerely, "My clansmen, I'm sorry..."

Sarutobi replied frankly, "Not at all! The Sarutobi clan has never had a deserter!"

"Kill them all!!" Kabuto's chilling command echoed in the minds of Uchiha Shin and his comrades.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

The believers clasped their hands together in front of their chests.

—The Group's Wood Release: Advent of the Tree World!

Rumble rumble rumble!!!

From the silt at the bottom of the moat, large trees sprouted, breaking through the water's surface, like countless...

Sarutobi Takitsubo's eyes burned: "Even Wood Release? If it were just now, I would have been terrified, but now, there's nothing to be afraid of!"

Swish!Swish!Swish!

Hundreds of Sarutobi formed hand seals in perfect unison, then inhaled sharply, their chests bulging high.

—Group Fire Release: Great Flame Technique!

Bear! Bear! Bear! Bear!

The most spectacular group fire jutsu ever unleashed! The entire moat was dried up in an instant, and the rolling flames and the falling tree worlds collided together. The crackling and exploding sounds were like the wailing of ghosts and gods!

This is a battle that is destined to result in total annihilation!

boom!

The flames were eventually extinguished by the Tree World, but the defense line built by the Sarutobi clan with their flesh and blood... bought the people in the city a chance to escape!

Chapter 631 Three Inches of Human World, United in Hatred Against the Enemy!

Overnight, four cities under the Ninja Kingdom were ravaged.

The enemy was Shin Uchiha's clone army, which launched attacks from four directions—east, west, south, and north—at almost the same time, targeting the four gateway cities of the ninja kingdom. Before reinforcements arrived, they used a method similar to White Zetsu's underground escape to conceal their whereabouts.

The city attacked from the east was Utan, the gateway city of the Iwagakure vassal state.

The city attacked from the south was Sarutobi Castle, the gateway to the Konoha vassal state.

The city attacked from the west was Flowing Sand Castle, the gateway city to the Sand Village's vassal state.

The city attacked to the north was Mizukage Castle, the gateway city to the vassal state of Kirigakure.

Among them, the Iwagakure side suffered the heaviest casualties. Utan City was completely wiped out, with no survivors, from ninjas to civilians. The city became a living hell. Tangled logs pierced through the broken walls and ruins, covering every corner of the city. Blood and flesh seeped through the cracks in the logs, making it impossible to step on them. Many of the ninjas who were responsible for cleaning up the corpses suffered mental breakdowns and needed psychological rehabilitation.

Konoha suffered the fewest casualties, with nearly half of Sarutobi Castle's inhabitants and ninjas escaping. However, the castle lord Sarutobi Takitsubo and his entire Sarutobi clan were wiped out, with only the young Sarutobi Konohamaru surviving.

"How could this happen!" Hiruzen, who had stayed in Feather Emperor City since his resurrection, sighed in despair upon hearing this devastating news, looking as if he had aged ten years overnight!

The following day, in the meeting room of Feathered Emperor City, the four shadows of the vassal states gathered.

Unlike the relaxed atmosphere at the last tea party, the meeting room was oppressive and heavy, with all four figures remaining silent.

The young and beautiful Mizukage Mizuki arrived without makeup, her bare face conveying a sense of solemnity, her brows furrowed in worry.

The languid young Hokage, Kakashi, had a tense expression beneath his mask. With the mask pulled back, his Sharingan was exposed, and even the book he had been casually holding, "Icha Icha Paradise," was left lying in his office.

The already serious Fengying Luosha and Tuying Huangtu were even more so. Huangtu stood with his arms crossed in front of his chest, his feet pounding the ground impatiently, his eyes fixed on the doorway.

The four Kage hold a position in the vast system of the Ninja Kingdom second only to the Feather Emperor and the four elders of the Council. They all have some knowledge of the inside story of this attack!

creak!

The door to the meeting room opened, and Yu, dressed in a formal suit, walked in with a serious expression.

Behind him followed Kabuto, whose appearance had returned to that of a teenager!

Boom!

Huang Tu slammed his fist on the table and stormed past Yu, his large, fan-like hands grabbing Kabuto's throat. His eyes bloodshot, he roared, "Yakushi Kabuto! You bastard, you dare come any closer?! Do you know how many of us have died because of you?! I'm going to strangle you!!!"

"Ugh...!!" Kabuto Yakushi was pinned to the ground, his glasses falling to the side, his frail face contorted with suffocating pain.

"Lord Huangtu, don't be impulsive!" The other three figures used a lot of strength to pull Huangtu away.

"Cough cough..." Covering his reddened neck, he coughed until tears streamed down his face, and sat on the ground panting heavily.

Rasa and Kakashi each grabbed one of Huangtu's thick arms.

With bloodshot eyes, Huang Tuhu stared at Yu Dao and said, "Your Majesty, please give me an explanation! Why have you kept such a menace by your side?!"

Yu pulled up a chair, sat down, and lit a cigarette: "Keeping Dou around is better for the future. This is a conclusion I've reached after careful consideration. If he hadn't confessed about the external brain-computer interface, and we had continued to keep it a secret, things would only have gotten worse..."

"Moreover, since the incident has already occurred, venting your anger on him will not help. The most urgent task is to sit down and negotiate how to handle the aftermath and deal with the situation that follows."

Huang Tu stared fiercely at Kabuto Yakushi. After a long while, he finally suppressed his anger: "Let me go, Kakashi, Rasa. I won't use violence again."

Rasa and Kakashi let go of each other's hands. Actually... everyone had made sacrifices this time, and everyone was in a heavy mood. No one wanted to give the instigator a good look.

"Hoo..." Kabuto adjusted his breathing, picked up his glasses, put them back on his nose, and stood up, saying, "I know that at this point, any apology seems pale, but I still want to sincerely say 'I'm sorry' to everyone. After this situation is resolved, I will definitely atone for my sins to everyone here and to the victims in my own way. So, I hope you will listen to me with disgust."

"..." The four figures said nothing more and returned to their seats.

Yu Chong gestured towards the door, and his secretary, Nadeshiko Saori, nodded, closed the door, and activated a barrier to prevent eavesdropping.

Yu said, "Actually, after the incident, the first thing I received wasn't the reports from you all, but a message from Kisame Hoshigaki, a member of the Dark Curtain..."

"!" All four figures were astonished.

Kabuto Yakushi adjusted his glasses and began to speak, “Let me explain… After turning away from darkness and embracing the light, I have been gathering information about my backup plans, the ‘Chakra Furnace’ and the ‘Wakubu Nest,’ and I have recently made some progress.”

"Last night, Shisui, the leader of the Ninja Kingdom's secret police, and his partner Kisame went to the intelligence location, the northern part of the Sand Dunes outside the Land of Wind, and witnessed the Chakra Furnace devouring nearly ten thousand innocent refugees."

"Shisui instructed Kisame to deliver information to Lord Yu Huang, and then he single-handedly destroyed the chakra furnace located beneath the desert of the Land of Wind... As a result, my other self, the 'external brain,' determined that the relevant information had been leaked, and the Ninja Kingdom began to intervene. Since they could no longer mass-produce clones, they decided to launch a desperate operation!"

At this moment, Rasa said, "So, it was because of Uchiha Shisui's unauthorized actions that the enemy was alerted?"

Yu said, "We can't say that. If we stir up trouble, we'll definitely stir up trouble. The number of clone legions will increase over time. The longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for us. If we can stop the production process of the clone legions as soon as possible and turn the competition from covert to direct confrontation, it will be the best outcome for us!"

Yu clenched his fist: "I just didn't expect the enemy to act so quickly. Almost at the same time that stronghold was destroyed, their desperate operation began..."

Yu took out the remote control and pressed the button.

drop!

The screen on the blank wall fell, revealing a map of the Ninja Kingdom, with four vassal states surrounding the Dark Ninja Kingdom in the center from the east, west, south, and north.

Its total land area has exceeded one million square kilometers, which is not much less than that of the two major countries of land and water.

The four cities that were attacked are located at the gateways to the east, west, south, and north, and are marked with red dots.

Yu said, "The four attacked cities are each tens of thousands of miles apart, yet they were attacked simultaneously. The enemy forces in each city number around ten thousand. This shows that the million-strong clone army is not concentrated in one place, but rather dispersed in various locations. This is precisely the enemy's cleverness; even if they are discovered, they can avoid the risk of being wiped out in one fell swoop..."

"As for the drawbacks, with the personnel scattered, more hiding places are needed, increasing the probability of being discovered. I have already mobilized all 100,000 White Zetsu from the Ninja Kingdom to conduct a radial search, starting from the Ninja Kingdom itself. I believe we will soon have some results..."

"Hmm? I understand!" At this moment, Nadeshiko Saori, who was standing in front of the door, pressed her earpiece and said something to Yu.

Yu's eyes lit up: "Oh? Speak of the devil, and he appears! The hideout of the clone army that disappeared after attacking four cities last night has been found..."

Whoosh! The four figures stood up almost simultaneously.

Yu said with a deep gaze, "Everyone, I understand your feelings, but please calm down..."

The four shadows, united in their hatred, cried out: "Are we still going to wait?!"

“Wait? I didn’t say that…” Yu said softly, raising her hands to form a hand seal: “I’m angrier than anyone else, so I have to crush them myself!”

Rustling sounds!

Four Wood Release clones appeared... Yu was going to take action himself to avenge the ninjas and civilians who died in the four vassal states last night!

Chapter 632 Three Inches of Human World, All Sides Destroyed!

call out!

Accompanied by the divine vortex, one of Yu's wooden clones descended upon the plains of the Land of Fire.

According to the intelligence sent by White Zetsu, the Shinigami Corps that attacked Sarutobi Castle last night is hiding in this area.

Noisy!

The veins in his temples bulged, and the eyes of the wooden clone turned into white eyes.

The clone's Byakugan perception is not as sharp as the original, but its viewing distance is still 10 kilometers.

Through the surface rock layers, one could see countless figures slithering underground...

Yu murmured, "Sure enough, after having the structure of White Zetsu in their genes, these clones of Shin Uchiha have the ability to travel underwater. But it seems that their speed is far slower than that of White Zetsu, which is why they moved to such a close place and were discovered by the White Zetsu."

Noisy!

Yu withdrew his Byakugan and transformed it into the Rinnegan.

Unlike Madara, Yu's Wood Release clone also possesses the Rinnegan, but this Rinnegan does not have the six-tomoe form that only the original body possesses.

Therefore, the three great dojutsu—Danmyo-chantika, Takanashi-chantika, and Yomotsu Hirasaka—cannot be used.

However... the Six Paths ability of the Rinnegan is still no problem!

—Planetary Devastation!

*Snap!* Yu clasped his hands together, and when he separated them, a black chakra ball grew in the gap between his palms. As he raised his hands, the ball floated into the sky, paused, and then emitted thousands of white rays of light!

Rumble rumble rumble!!

The earth cracked into countless stones, which were pulled into the sky by gravity and gathered into stars!
