Zongman: Starting with the Samsara Eye, I Became the God of Ninja World

Like an over-the-shoulder throw, he slammed the 100-meter-tall Akimichi Choza in one direction.

"Quick, get out of the way! It's coming this way!"

Someone noticed the huge dark shadow overhead and immediately shouted a warning.

boom! ! !

The Akimichi Choza was slammed to the ground with tremendous force, as if a magnitude 10 earthquake had occurred, and countless houses were crushed into dust.

Before long, having exhausted himself, he returned to his original size, rolled his eyes, and fainted.

Rukawa stood with his arms crossed at the highest point of the building, looking down at everyone present with an arrogant gaze.

I was just about to add a line like "Who else?" to elevate my sophistication.

And at this moment,

A bold and unrestrained female voice rang out.

"Don't get too arrogant! Don't think you can act recklessly just because you're strong! I'll let you experience the pain of being strangled!"

"Blackball, let's go!"

"Wang!"

—Tooth to Tooth!

next moment,

Inuzuka Tsurugi and Kuromaru spun their upright saw-like bodies at high speed, transforming them into two whirlwinds that seemed capable of cutting through anything, and attacked Rukawa.

The one who launched the attack was none other than the head of the Inuzuka clan, a woman exuding wildness, who was also Kiba Inuzuka's mother.

"Tch, the Inuzuka clan, huh? Konoha has so many clans with secret techniques! Taking them down one after another!"

Rukawa was somewhat displeased that someone dared to interrupt his act of showing off.

He immediately took the initiative and disappeared from the rooftop. When he reappeared, he was already between two whirlwinds.

With a casual punch and kick, two loud "bangs" rang out, and the man and the dog immediately coughed up blood and flew backward, not even a chance against him.

Shhhhhh!!

As soon as Rukawa landed on the ground, he heard a dense rustling sound behind him.

Looking back, I saw countless flying insects.

The number of flying insects was so great that they blotted out the sun, like a dark, swirling cloud rushing towards him.

Behind these insects were a dozen or so Aburame clan ninjas who were completely covered up.

"What does it matter how strong your power or how formidable your defense? None of that matters against insects."

"Because the insects will devour you completely, leaving not even a trace. Repent, invader!"

—Secret Technique: Parasitic Worms!

With a wave of her hand, Aburame Shiki sent countless parasitic insects swarming toward Rukawa like madmen.

Rukawa formed hand seals, preparing to unleash a ninjutsu.

It wasn't that he was afraid the insects would break through his defenses, but rather that he didn't want to see himself covered in countless insects.

—Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!

With a single breath, a gigantic fire dragon appeared out of thin air.

The fire dragon let out a silent roar and charged fiercely towards the swarm of insects.

It seemed to possess a spirit, soaring and circling in the air, appearing wherever there were parasites.

The flames burned fiercely, and countless parasites were reduced to ashes in the high temperature, leaving not even a trace!

In just a few breaths, all the parasites were burned to ashes.

"How...how could this be! All the insects have been wiped out!"

You Nuzhi's face looked unpleasant.

Bear! Bear! Bear!

The fiery dragon that had burned away all the insects set its sights on them, and with boundless waves of energy, it charged fiercely towards the group of Oil Maidens.

"What!!"

Faced with the charging fire dragon, the faces of all the Oil Maidens changed drastically.

Without the parasitic insects, they had absolutely no means of defense against this level of attack.

Damn it! I shouldn't have brought my clansmen along to fight.

You Nu Zhiwei couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

Just as he was beginning to despair,

Wow! !

A massive wall of water suddenly appeared, blocking their path.

——Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!

boom! !

The fire dragon crashed into the wall of water with a roar.

Under the intense heat, a large amount of water evaporates, turning into dense water vapor.

When the white mist dissipated, Yu Nu Zhiwei could clearly see who had come to her rescue.

He immediately became excited, but at the same time felt ashamed.

"Third, Third Generation Lord! It is my incompetence that has troubled you to personally come to my rescue. I am truly ashamed!"

"It's alright. As the Hokage, I would never stand idly by while my fellow villagers are in danger."

Hiruzen Sarutobi waved his hand, his face full of righteous indignation.

After a pause, he said again:

"You've done your best, there's no need to blame yourselves!"

"Yes, I'm sorry, Third Hokage!"

The Aburame group felt even more ashamed. With their subordinates around, it was really inappropriate to make their leader, the Third Generation, personally take action!

I am deeply grateful and also impressed by the magnanimity of the three generations.

This is the Third Hokage, this is the leader they admire, this is the Third Hokage they love!

"Alright, you guys go down first! The opponent is very strong, not an enemy you can handle."

Hiruzen Sarutobi waved his hand, signaling the Aburame and the others to step back.

As Aburame and the others left the scene, the Konoha ninjas around them became incredibly excited and thrilled to see the Third Hokage personally take the stage.

They shouted and roared, their emotions running high like never before.

"It's the Third Hokage! The Third Hokage is going to take action himself!"

"Lord Third Generation, you must teach this arrogant bastard a lesson! Don't hold back!"

"Although I trust Lord Third, I'm still a little worried. I'm concerned that Lord Third might not be a match for him. After all, that guy is so powerful; he's not so easy to deal with!"

"Shut up! How dare you question the Third Hokage? The Third Hokage is the strongest Hokage of all time. He could easily defeat that bastard with one hand. How dare you question him!"

“…”

Hearing the thunderous shouts of the crowd, Hiruzen Sarutobi looked slightly uneasy.

Because he stepped forward at this moment not to challenge Rukawa to a fight.

"Sir, let's stop here!"

He looked at Rukawa and said in a deep voice:

"You have injured so many of our comrades. Even if you have some grudge against Elder Danzo, it should be settled now."

"Continuing to fight is pointless, so please leave now and depart from Konoha! As for your previous actions, I will pretend they never happened!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi said these words calmly.

In short, he doesn't want to play anymore.

That's not quite right. It should be said that after witnessing Rukawa's formidable strength, he chose to back down.

Having witnessed the battle, he sadly realized that even if he, the Third Hokage, were to personally intervene, he would only face defeat.

Taking action will result in defeat and further humiliation.

If you don't make a move, you won't be defeated, and you'll save face.

If that's the case, then it's better not to make a move!

Moreover, Rukawa had already left Danzo aside before the battle.

The Konoha ninjas naturally and successfully rescued Danzo.

With their scapegoat successfully rescued, the mission of this support operation can be considered accomplished.

There's no need to increase casualties just to fight a monster.

Therefore, the battle should end.

This is what Hiruzen Sarutobi is thinking right now.

Although being slapped in public made him feel very aggrieved, he had the urge to tear the culprit to pieces.

But now that I've calmed down, I don't really feel anything. After all, the other party is just too strong!

In the ninja world, might makes right.

The title "Oni-Hero" Hiruzen Sarutobi is well-deserved, especially the "Oni" in the first part.

Just like when the Hidden Cloud Village kidnapped Hinata, was exposed and killed, and then turned around and threatened the Hidden Leaf Village to hand over the culprit from the Hyuga clan.

Endure it and it will pass.

However, when Hiruzen Sarutobi expressed his intention to cease hostilities, before Rukawa could even react, the Konoha ninjas around him erupted in uproar.

"What?! Does the Third Hokage mean to let this bastard go?"

"Why? That guy injured so many of our comrades, why should we let him go so easily?"

"Lord Third Generation, that guy just slapped you in the face! How can you tolerate that?"

"Yes, could it be that the Third Hokage is afraid? Or is it that even the Third Hokage, the strongest Hokage in history, is no match for that guy?"

“…”

"Whoo~"

Hearing the clamor of voices around him, Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep breath and then suddenly shouted.

"Enough! I have my reasons for doing this."

His expression darkened slightly, and he said in a solemn voice:

"In my observation, this person is extremely powerful, probably only slightly weaker than me."

"It would be difficult for even an old man like me to defeat such an opponent."

"When the time comes, if I were to fight this man, the battle would surely be earth-shattering."

At that time, the aftershocks will only destroy more Konoha houses and implicate more Konoha villagers.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice suddenly became impassioned.

"For Konoha, for the millions of people of Konoha, for everyone, the humiliation I suffered from being slapped in the face is utterly insignificant!"

These words brought tears to the eyes of many Konoha ninjas.

"Oh, I see. It seems we misunderstood you, Lord Third Generation."

"The Third Hokage wasn't unable to defeat them, but for the sake of Konoha, he had no choice but to compromise!"

"Truly worthy of our great Third Hokage, always putting Konoha first. We've wronged you, Third Hokage!"

“…”
