“A person’s energy is limited, Kazan,” Fukasaku advised. “We can use other methods.”

"No, I feel I can do it." Kazan clenched his fist, looked up at Gamabunta, and shouted, "Gamabunta, again!"

The most dangerous aspect of Sage Mode is that absorbing too much natural energy can lead to a frog-like state.

However, during his battle with Granny Chiyo, Kazan reached the pinnacle of Observation Haki and foresaw the future.

"As long as we can foresee danger in advance, we can control the absorption of natural energy."

Kazan and Gamabunta were locked in a fierce battle, constantly pushing their Observation Haki to its limits.

As the saying goes, practice makes perfect.

That's how cultivation works; you fully master it through repeated trial and error.

Chapter 103 Frontline Situation

In the days that followed, Kazan stayed on Mount Myoboku to train.

He needs to absorb natural energy during battle and refine his Sage Chakra to maintain Sage Mode for an extended period.

Gamabunta cooperated with him in battle, spending every day either fighting or on his way to fight, making Mount Myoboku incredibly lively.

The divine immortal stood by, urging them on, a large black club in his hand, ready to strike at any moment.

"Now that you've grasped it, there's no reason why you can't control it!"

Kazan, shirtless, engages in a battle with Wen Tai.

He abandoned Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki, and focused all his efforts on Observation Haki, aiming to completely master the ultimate Observation Haki and foresee the future.

"Boom!"

Mount Myoboku was extremely lively, with the mountain shaking frequently.

Bunta also called over his brothers, Gamaken and Gamahiro.

no way.

Kazan is a beast; he could fight for days and nights without getting tired.

Bunta alone—no, Bunta, a toad, couldn't hold on.

"Bunta, Ken, Hiro, all three of you, come at me together!"

Kazan isn't content with one-on-one combat; he wants to deal with the three toad brothers simultaneously.

"What did you say?"

"Even if it were Kazan, I would get angry if he said that."

"I'm so clumsy..."

All three toads were angry, which was exactly what Kazan wanted.

You must put yourself in difficult situations and move forward even in dire circumstances.

The battle escalated further, with the three toad brothers causing Kazan considerable trouble.

Occasionally, you can see Kazan being blasted away like a cannonball, crashing into the mountain and creating a hole.

Even with Observation Haki, one cannot completely dodge three toads at the same time unless they can see a glimpse of the future.

Kazan shattered the boulder and charged out again, battling the three toads.

As for Minato Namikaze...

He has left Mount Myōboku, believing that Sage Mode is not suitable for his fighting style.

Therefore, after completing his training in Sage Mode, he returned to the front lines and did not continue his studies.

Only Kazan insisted on completing the training for the Perfect Sage Mode.

..........

now.

The Land of Sound and the Land of Flow have gathered a large number of troops from the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Stone Village.

Jiraiya and Orochimaru simultaneously led their troops to occupy both countries, confronting the ninja forces of the two major ninja villages.

The original Third Shinobi World War.

The first to attack Konoha was also the Sand Village. After being repelled by Konoha, the five great ninja villages remained peaceful for a period of time.

Immediately afterward, Iwagakure launched an attack on Konoha, and Kumogakure launched a surprise attack on Iwagakure at this time.

Kirigakure also launched an attack from the sea, targeting Konoha's rear. Immediately afterwards, Kumogakure also saw an opportunity and turned to attack Konoha.

This created a situation where the three villages attacked from the opposite direction.

However, instead of attacking Iwagakure, Kumogakure led its troops to the Land of Sound and engaged in battle with Konoha's forces.

During this period, countless small countries wailed, and their people suffered greatly.

The five great ninja villages tacitly chose to set the battlefield in these countries that did not have ninja village troops. Even if they did, they had already won them over, so the outcome could not be changed.

The flames of war spread to every inch of the ninja world.

Some villages secretly resolved to train their own ninja forces.

Before that, they could only unite and protest to the daimyo of the five great powers.

Danzo Shimura commanded the Kirigakure battlefield, leading his troops in a frontal assault.

Might Guy's team was also on this battlefield, but the most outstanding young generation member was not Guy, but Uchiha Shisui, who was younger than them.

Konoha's battle lines are stretched too thin, resulting in daily casualties and a constant need to replenish its fighting strength.

On the battlefield between Kumogakure and Iwagakure, Jiraiya and Orochimaru each led their own squads to meet the enemy.

Jiraiya felt immense pressure; his initial battles against Kumogakure resulted in heavy losses.

Fortunately, Minato Namikaze returned from his training at Mount Myōboku in time, which stabilized the situation.

These days, battles of all sizes are breaking out every day, and the number of casualties is constantly increasing.

"I have a bad feeling, Minato."

Inside the camp, Jiraiya discussed matters with the various troop commanders.

They had barely managed to repel the Sand Ninja when another battle immediately followed, leaving them no time to catch their breath.

Most of Konoha's troops have now been mobilized to fight against the three major ninja villages simultaneously, putting them under immense pressure.

The battle against the Cloud Ninja was particularly difficult.

"Yes, the Jinchuriki of the Cloud Ninja haven't been deployed yet."

Nara Shikaku let out a long sigh, his brows furrowed with sorrow.

A perfect Jinchūriki possesses astonishing destructive power.

If the Hidden Cloud Village deploys its Jinchūriki, it means that the Hidden Leaf Village will have to face two Tailed Beasts at the same time.

They need manpower, especially high-end combat personnel.

"Where is Lord Kazan?"

Hiashi Hyuga asked, "Our troops urgently need the young hero who killed Granny Chiyo."

"Still cultivating immortal arts on Mount Myōboku."

"Haven't you mastered it yet after all this time?"

Jiraiya knew that mastering Sage Mode was difficult, but it couldn't be this difficult, could it?

He was always "gathering materials," which is why he didn't have time to complete the cultivation of the Sage Mode; otherwise, he would have mastered it long ago.

"It's probably done, but Kazan wants to perfectly master Sage Mode."

Kazan made no secret of his intention to maintain Sage Mode for an extended period of time during combat.

Minato Namikaze also tried, but found it was simply impossible.

Only Kazan possesses an aura that can capture the natural energy in the air, which can be felt without needing to enter a meditative state.

"Then let Kazan continue his training at Mount Myōboku. We can call him back when necessary."

Upon hearing this, Jiraiya did not rush to call Kazan back.

He harbored expectations, yearning for Kazan to recreate the invincible legend of the First Hokage.

........

Outside the main camp.

Kakashi, Obito Uchiha, and others gathered together.

Having experienced the baptism of war, these fledgling young ninjas have matured considerably.

Uchiha Jō still shouts "Shame on the Uchiha" every day, but having fought alongside Obito several times, he has actually come to accept this former loser in his heart.

At this moment, none of them had their usual smiling faces.

Even Nohara Rin had a serious expression.

Obito was covered in bruises and bandages, his expression solemn, and much of his childishness had faded.

When will the Cloud Ninja launch their all-out attack? Will the Jinchuriki also participate in the battle?

These words struck like a heavy hammer.

They all thought of the Chunin Exams, and Yugito Nii, who could perfectly control the Tailed Beasts.

Besides, that time was during an exam, but now we're on the battlefield, where there are no more worries.

Next, they will likely have to face the legendary nine tailed beasts directly, and two of them at once.

"Hmph, you're scared already, you bottom-of-the-barrel kid."

"If you're scared, then hide at the very back of the unit."

Uchiha Jō proudly raised his head.

The Uchiha clan will not back down; they firmly believe they are the strongest clan in the ninja world.
