[Naruto : Yellow Flash] Chapter 621 - 625

Chapter 621: Beyond the Plan

"It actually blocked my Dojutsu. What a strong eye power!"

This was the first time his eye technique had been blocked by someone since he opened the Mangekyō Sharingan.

To accomplish such a thing, one would need stronger pupil power than one's own.

Each of the Mangekyō Sharingan's eye techniques represents power, but this power comes at a price.

After using eye techniques continuously, Uchiha Yoruki's vision clarity was gradually decreasing.

But the masked man has been using more powerful eye techniques than himself, so his condition should be worse than his.

After blocking an attack for Hiruzen, Minato retreated to Hiruzen's side.

"This guy's pupil power is strong ."

Hiruzen kept muttering, having clearly seen the eye power confrontation between the masked man and Uchiha Yoruki.

According to common sense, although the Mangekyō Sharingan has different pupil powers due to different levels of development, the gap is not so big that it cannot be bridged.

Judging from Uchiha Yoruki's appearance, he should have been defeated in the battle of eye power.

But even if the masked man won, it would be impossible for him to use Susanoo so stably.

Whether it's the space-time ninjutsu that is more advanced than Flying Thunder God, or Susanoo, it should consume a lot of eye power.

This was something that even Madara could not have avoided before that incident.

Although he didn't see it with his own eyes, he heard it from the First and Second Hokage, so it couldn't be wrong.

Unless his eyes are no longer ordinary Mangekyō Sharingan.

Thinking of this, Hiruzen's heart trembled violently.

In the history of the Uchiha, only Madara should have such eye power.

Eye power strong enough to rival that of the God of Ninja, the First Hokage.

Obviously, this masked man has not reached Madara's level, otherwise, he would be able to sweep through Konoha by himself without any help.

"Third Hokage, could you please tell me all the information you have about Susanoo?" Minato frowned, saying that when he and the masked man fought before, the latter had never used this kind of power.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to defeat him in one round with just the Flying Thunder God Stage 2 technique.

Hiruzen nodded and said, "Susanoo is the ultimate eye technique contained in the Mangekyō Sharingan. It is a third ability that can only be used when the pupil power of both eyes is brought to its extreme at the same time."

"As far as I know, Susanoo is divided into several stages, and with each step forward, its power increases exponentially."

Even Hiruzen had never seen Susanoo with his own eyes.

"It's really troublesome."

Minato frowned and asked, "But even with the Mangekyō Sharingan, if you use this eye technique continuously, it shouldn't be able to last too long."

"This is what surprises me. Even after using this kind of ninjutsu that requires huge consumption of eye power continuously, that guy doesn't seem to have much burden," Hiruzen said in a deep voice.

"Bang!"

Just as the two were communicating, a huge cloud of smoke suddenly spread out from Konoha.

Minato looked slightly to the side and saw the huge slug-like creature standing in Konoha. It was Tsunade's summoning beast, Katsuyu.

"Crash!"

The next moment, the huge slug shrank in size as if it was dissolving.

But looking closely, you could see more and more small slugs appearing next to the main slug that was getting smaller and smaller.

That is Katsuyu's unique ability, the splitting technique, which can continuously split into independent individuals according to the summoner's chakra level.

And every slug has the ability to heal.

The slugs of different sizes quickly spread out in all directions.

Not long after, a slug also arrived at the battlefield where Minato and the others were.

"Katsuyu, what happened?" Hiruzen asked immediately.

The slug replied, "Tsunade-sama was unable to temporarily remove the poisonous gas in Konoha, so she summoned me and asked me to wrap up the civilians and ninjas to evacuate them."

"Is it a poison that even Lady Tsunade can't cure?"

Minato murmured, looking sideways at Sasori of the Red Sand who was fighting with Hatake Sakumo.

It seems that after being defeated by me that time, this most outstanding genius in the history of Sunagakure has grown so fast.

But the stronger he is, the greater the threat he poses to Konoha.

"As expected of one of the Three Sannin, you actually have this method."

Sasori frowned. He had asked himself about the new type of poison he had developed, believing even Tsunade would not be able to find a way to counter it in a short time.

But she had another way to protect the civilians of Konoha.

"What are you going to do next?"

At this time, a slight smile appeared on Sasori's face, and he said something to the masked man.

The latter's expression beneath the mask also changed slightly.

His plan was to use everyone in Konoha to wear down Minato.

So far, in order to neutralize their attacks, Minato has paid a huge price in terms of chakra.

But this is not enough. However, the initiative is still in their hands. Because of Sasori's poisonous fog, the civilians of Konoha cannot enter the shelter smoothly.

But with Katsuyu's help, most people in Konoha will be protected in a short period of time, and the method of wearing down Minato by constantly changing the battlefield will become meaningless.

If they were to fight head-on, even if their strength was not much inferior to Konoha's, they would definitely not be able to kill Minato.

Then all plans would be meaningless.

However, the plan to attack Konoha was something "they" had planned for a long time, so any variables were taken into consideration.

The masked man glanced sideways at the man in the black robe beside him.

"There's no other choice but to use that."

Upon hearing this, the black-robed man's eyes flickered slightly, and then he nodded.

However, he turned his eyes to Minato and said with some doubt: "Even if it is him, it is unlikely that he can withstand this move, right?"

"It doesn't matter. He will definitely do his best to protect these people. When that happens, it will be our chance."

The masked man grinned sinisterly. He knew Minato Namikaze too well.

But this time, even he could not save everyone, and could not save Konoha!

"After using this move, I won't be able to use my abilities for a period of time, so when the time comes, you will need to take action to eliminate him."

The black-robed man said. When he finished speaking, his body slowly floated up.

"You actually know how to fly?"

Seeing this, the Third Hokage and Minato's faces became even gloomier. Just as they were about to stop the black-robed man from taking off, the light blue Susanoo let out a low roar.

"Roar!"

As the roar fell, Susanoo's body was completely covered with armor. The powerful force even pushed away the air around it!

Chapter 622: Stop

"Roar!"

At this time, the eyes of Minato and Hiruzen were filled with azure chakra light.

Susanoo, covered in armor, was like a war god. With its roar, the air around it compressed, forming air waves that rose up layer by layer.

"Advanced again?"

The two paused. Although the size of Susanoo had not changed much compared to before, the feeling it gave people now was completely different.

That kind of power, just looking at it, was enough to make ordinary ninjas despair.

"What on earth do they want to do?"

Minato groaned in his heart. This further advanced Susanoo seemed very powerful, but this alone was not enough to leave him helpless.

Because after using this form, Minato's perception of the masked man's chakra fluctuations finally weakened.

While using powerful force, the user himself was also paying a price.

The masked man used this trick that seemed to be his trump card, but the man in the black robe rose into the air and gradually left the battlefield.

Regardless, Minato would never think that the black-robed man was trying to escape.

He had a hunch that he must not let him out of his control.

Swish!

With this thought in mind, Minato's figure moved instantly, like a flash of golden light, and suddenly rushed out.

"Rustle!"

As Minato moved, Susanoo stretched out its hand and the chain in its palm suddenly shot out.

The speed of the chain was quite fast, but compared to Minato, there was still some gap.

"Wow!"

The masked man himself knew this, and in Susanoo, he activated the power of both eyes at the same time.

As far as the eye could see was the chain in Susanoo's hand.

The space in front of the chain immediately twisted, and then the trajectory of the chain's movement began to change.

Even under the distortion of space, the chains that were originally shot out began to roll and then increased rapidly.

The rolling chain wrapped around Minato, who was slightly startled.

Swish!

However, he retreated, and as the attack distance increased, the distortion of the space around the chain became weaker and weaker.

"I can't even touch you like this. You really live up to your name of Yellow Flash."

In Susanoo, the masked man looked at Minato who had stopped moving and seemed to utter an exclamation of admiration.

But that voice was full of sarcasm.

Minato frowned. At this time, the man in the black robe was already floating nearly ten meters in the air.

The confrontation between him and the masked man took only a split second, so the latter's levitation speed was already quite fast.

"Want to delay me?"

Minato's expression changed slightly, and at this time the masked man had locked onto him with full concentration.

This person's ability was not so much powerful as it was difficult. Even with his speed, it was not easy to get rid of him.

"Boom!"

However, just as Minato was fighting the masked man, the Third Hokage also went around behind Susanoo and swept it fiercely with the Vajra Staff.

However, the armor covering the Susanoo was extremely strong. Even the Staff transformed by the Monkey King could not cause any significant damage to it.

"It has no effect at all."

The masked man glanced sideways and looked at Hiruzen with a teasing look.

However, a smile appeared on the old face of the Third Hokage.

He formed the seal of the clone jutsu with his hands, but Hiruzen himself did not use the clone.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Instead, the number of the Staffs was increasing rapidly. When the smoke dissipated slightly, dozens of Staffs appeared around Susanoo.

"Ninjutsu: Diamond Prison Wall!"

Hiruzen's hand seal changed slightly, and dozens of staffs turned into a huge cage, completely locking up Susanoo.

"Minato, go stop that guy!"

After trapping the masked man in a cage formed by the Staff, Hiruzen shouted suddenly.

"Got it!"

Minato nodded, but just as he was about to attack, a huge flame swept over from his side.

That was the fire ninjutsu performed by Kakuzu.

"Water Style: Water Array Wall!"

But at this moment, in front of the flames, Jiraiya's tall figure appeared, and a huge stream of water rolled up from his mouth, turning into a massive water wall to block the flames.

"Ding ding!"

At the same time, Susanoo, who was locked in the prison wall, also launched an attack. However, the monkey king had an indestructible body, and the cage it transformed into was not easily broken.

Of course, the masked man could escape from it immediately by using his space-time ninjutsu.

But in this case, he would have to abandon the Susanoo he had just used, which would be a huge drain even for him.

"Haah!"

At this time, Minato raised his eyes and saw that the man in the black robe was already dozens of meters high in the air. He threw the special kunai in his hand without hesitation.

The masked man in the cage stared at Minato's movements closely. Although he could not keep up with Minato's speed, it was not a problem for him to deflect the kunai thrown by Minato.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"

But at this moment, Uchiha Yoruki, who came to the outside of the prison wall, spat out raging fire from his mouth. The flames were fierce and immediately filled the entire prison wall.

"You use Dojutsus to lock onto a target, right?"

Uchiha Yoruki chuckled. As someone who also possessed the Mangekyō Sharingan, he knew best that the prerequisite for using this power was the focus of vision.

If the masked man wanted to deflect Minato's kunai, he must first be able to see it.

"What a trouble," the masked man lowered his eyes.

The kunai thrown by Minato with all his strength reached a height of several meters in the blink of an eye.

Swish!

Minato's figure suddenly disappeared and appeared next to the moving kunai. He grabbed the kunai with his backhand, and then threw it out again!

After repeating this several times, Minato finally reached a height of several dozen meters, but during this time, the man in the black robe had already surpassed this height.

"What a quick reaction."

The black-robed man who was still rising into the air watched Minato's movements and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

He kept using the mark on the kunai to move back and forth in time and space, moving again before his body fell due to gravity. To complete these actions, the required reaction speed was only possible for Minato Namikaze in the current ninja world, right?

But even so, this forced method could not stop him.

The man in the black robe formed seals with his hands and then pressed them into the air.

"Screech!"

A giant strange bird let out a long roar and suddenly swooped down towards Minato.

At this time, Minato was high in the air and had no foothold, so he had no way to dodge.

However, he did not look surprised at all, but just murmured softly.

"Finally the chakra is full."

Minato murmured, and the next moment, orange eye shadow appeared again from the corner of his eyes.

Sage Mode!

"Senjutsu: Flying Thunder God Stage 3!"

The seal was formed instantly, and a brilliant rain of chakra light burst out from behind him.

Swish!

As the rain of light spread in the air, Minato's figure suddenly disappeared, avoiding the attack of the giant monster bird.

Behind Minato, several beams of light shot out and rushed straight into the sky.

He used this method to move again, and this time the distance between him and the man in the black robe was less than a few meters.

"Zing zing!"

Suddenly, a blue chakra ball condensed in his palm, and shuriken-like wind blades appeared around the ball in the blink of an eye.

In the sky, a sharp high-frequency vibration sound was heard.

Minato suddenly exerted force with his arms, and then threw the ninjutsu in his hand fiercely towards the man in the black robe.

"Senjutsu·Wind Style·Rasengan Shuriken!"

Chapter 623: Destruction of Konoha

"Can you actually condense this kind of ninjutsu with your chakra in an instant?"

The man in the black robe looked at the Rasengan Shuriken attacking him with a little shock.

However, even this kind of ninjutsu posed no threat to him.

At this time, the man in the black robe was surrounded by a transparent protective shield.

"Zing zing!"

The Rasengan, spinning at high speed and emitting a sharp vibration sound, hit the shield, and its powerful chakra was quickly absorbed.

"Bang!"

However, just when he had absorbed some chakra, the rapidly rotating Rasengan Shuriken suddenly "banged" and transformed into the appearance of Minato.

"What!?"

The black-robed man's expression trembled violently, and then Minato, who had fired the Rasengan Shuriken, turned into smoke with a bang.

Shadow Clone!!

"Did you use my summoning beast and clone technique?"

He suddenly realized that because of the size of the summoned beast, Minato disappeared from his sight for a while.

The latter used this time not only to use the third stages of Flying Thunder God, but also to create a shadow clone.

Then, this shadow clone approached him first, and then the main body changed into the appearance of a Rasengan Shuriken and moved to the clone's hand.

"Next, are you going to use repulsion to send me flying again?"

Minato suddenly attacked the black-robed man and grabbed his ankle.

In his perception, the black-robed man was accumulating a huge amount of chakra in his body as he continued to rise into the air.

So Minato had a rough guess about the plans of the masked man and the others.

What he had to do now was to stop the person in front of him from accumulating strength.

And just now, the Third Hokage had also issued instructions to the Konoha ninjas to advance too through the slug clone.

As long as he could stop him from performing this jutsu, Minato could cooperate with Konoha's ninjas to prevent him from carrying out his plan smoothly.

"Woosh!"

High in the sky, within the remaining distance between Minato and the man in the black robe, the space began to twist in a vortex.

The masked man suddenly appeared and stretched out his hand towards Minato.

If only Minato had been able to catch the man in the black robe, he would have been there.

"You are such a bother."

"Let's go to another dimension!"

The masked man grabbed Minato's hands, and then the space in front of his eyes began to distort.

Swish!

With no other options, Minato could only use the Flying Thunder God Technique to move and disappear.

The masked man who lost his target was not lost. The space was distorted again with his eyes as the center, and then his figure disappeared.

In Konoha, where Hiruzen and the others were, Minato reappeared.

"Sorry, he escaped," the Third Hokage looked at Minato and said.

Minato shook his head. As someone who was proficient in space-time ninjutsu, he knew that it was not impossible to defeat someone who possessed space-time ninjutsu.

But even the most powerful ninja cannot stop a ninja who is proficient in this kind of ninjutsu from escaping.

Even Minato himself was not sure if he could keep the masked man as he was now.

As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes turned, and in front of Minato's sight, the space distorted and the masked man's figure reappeared.

"I won't let you get away easily again," the masked man stared at Minato and smiled sarcastically.

Minato's expression immediately turned gloomy, staring at the man in front of him and said, "The technique that guy is preparing is intended to destroy the entire Konoha, right?"

"What!?"

The Third Hokage, Uchiha Yoruki, Jiraiya who was fighting with the enemy, and Hatake Sakumo all trembled when they heard this.

Minato raised his eyes slightly. The black-robed man in the air had disappeared from his sight under the cover of darkness, but the powerful chakra that was lingering in the air was clearly within his perception.

Not only him, but also the ninjas in Konoha who were proficient in sensory, Suzuka and even Kushina who was protected by the barrier, all felt this powerful and amazing chakra.

"That guy's technique is centered on himself, releasing gravitational or repulsive forces, and the power of the technique is determined by the amount of chakra!"

Minato said that if the man in the black robe continued to accumulate chakra and used that ability, the entire Konoha would probably be destroyed by his one move.

"What an amazing analytical ability!"

The masked man was slightly surprised, but the fact that Minato was able to do this was part of his plan.

"So, Konoha's Fourth Hokage, what are you going to do?" He said, staring at Minato with a smile.

Minato looked at the man in front of him and gritted his teeth, but at this time, there was no time to continue to tangle with him.

If nothing is done at this time, Konoha will really be finished!

The Flying Thunder God Technique cannot dissolve the destructive attack of the black-robed man, and in such a short time, even if Minato abandons Konoha, it is impossible for him to transfer all the scattered people in Konoha to other places in such a short time.

If avoidance is not possible, the only option is to confront it head-on. The only way to save Konoha is to release an extra-large physical barrier that is large enough to cover the entire village.

"Third Hokage, please be sure to delay these guys. I must protect the entire village!"

Minato said in a heavy voice. Through his explanation, they were able to roughly understand what would happen next.

"Minato, I'm leaving the village in your hands!"

The Third Hokage and the others said solemnly in unison.

"Understood!"

Minato responded, and then immediately disappeared from everyone's sight.

In the eyes of the masked man, Minato is the biggest obstacle.

Now Minato has left.

"We still have some time, so let's deal with you."

He stared at the Third Hokage and Uchiha Yoruki in front of him with a playful look.

Although these two people are both top-notch ninja in the current ninja world, with his special abilities, if Minato is not around, the battle will be over as long as he sucks one of them into the different space.

However, after experiencing these battles, Konoha also had a certain judgment on the masked man's abilities.

His contemptuous attitude made the Third Hokage and Uchiha Yoruki look gloomy.

"Don't underestimate Konoha ninja."

Uchiha Yoruki said in a deep voice, and in his eyes, the flaming mangekyo patterns began to spin rapidly.

"Woosh!"

At this moment, deep red chakra light gushed out from his body, and then behind him, a semi-human skeleton with veins gradually formed.

The Third Hokage and the masked man were slightly shocked when they saw this.

"Susanoo!?"

Chapter 624: Ultimate Power

"Susanoo!?"

Behind Uchiha Yoruki, a deep red semi-human Susanoo gradually took shape. The light emitted by the several-meter-tall giant was as hot as a flame.

"You are worthy of being able to awaken Susanoo."

The masked man's face hidden under the mask cannot be shown to others, but one can hear a hint of surprise in his voice.

"Have you learned it after seeing me use it?"

Although the eye techniques of the Mangekyō Sharingan reside in both eyes when they are opened, when they can be fully utilized depends on the user.

In the current records of the Uchiha clan, there are very few records about the Mangekyō Sharingan, so Uchiha Yoruki almost entirely relies on his own exploration in the use of eye techniques.

"This pain."

In the midst of the crimson chakra, Uchiha Yoruki paused and frowned.

This kind of pain and consumption of pupil power that even he could not bear was the price of using Susanoo.

However, Uchiha Yoruki quickly adapted to this kind of pain. He turned his gaze to the masked man, and the kaleidoscope in his left eye was once again surging with red light.

"Swish!"

The Flaming Blade was then condensed and grasped in the hand of Susanoo.

"I will return the words I just said to you exactly."

"Since you plan to attack Konoha, don't even think about leaving easily!"

In a corner of Konoha, there is a room shrouded by an extremely complex barrier. The barrier blocks vision and perception, so from the outside, it looks empty here.

"Waaah!"

In the room, little Naruto began to feel uneasy and started to cry loudly.

On the side, Kushina was able to force herself to sit up, holding Naruto in her arms, and coaxing him softly.

But at this moment her expression was extremely solemn.

"Who are they?"

Kushina frowned. At this moment, in the sky above Konoha, an extremely powerful chakra was constantly emerging.

What surprised her was that there was something familiar in this chakra fluctuation.

"Minato..."

Kushina was very worried. Although Minato was already the strongest in the ninja world, an opponent with such chakra fluctuations would be difficult to deal with.

Naruto in her arms kept crying. Kushina lowered her eyes and whispered: "Naruto, don't be afraid, Dad will protect us and the village!"

Konoha, shelter.

Under the cover of Tsunade and the Konoha ninjas, 80% of the civilians were able to gather.

Suzuka was also responsible for the escort mission this time. She also raised her eyes in horror. The chakra fluctuations in the sky at this moment were even comparable to the Eight-Tails she had seen.

In the shelter, the sound of babies crying could be heard continuously.

"Okay, Sasuke, be good. No matter what happens, brother will definitely protect you."

Itachi gently coaxed Sasuke in his arms, constantly stroking his back with his hands to calm him down.

Swish!

At this moment, Minato's figure appeared in the center of Konoha.

He raised his eyes and perceived that the man in the black robe had stopped floating and was suspended in the air.

According to Minato's calculations, the chakra accumulated by the black-robed man at this time has almost reached the level that can destroy Konoha.

But until now, he has not yet launched a jutsu...

As he thought, the real purpose of the masked man and the black-robed man was not to destroy Konoha.

From the beginning till now, their goal has been to wear him down.

This is the real reason why they chose Konoha as the battlefield!

Otherwise, in terms of combat power alone, although the masked man and his helpers are also very powerful, they are still far inferior to the current Konoha.

However, they seized the weak spots of Minato and the others, which restricted them in every way.

"Haaah..."

Minato's lips moved and he exhaled a breath of white air, and then a hint of scarlet flashed across his azure eyes.

"Bzzzz."

He slammed his hands on the ground violently, and black barrier patterns spread out madly from under his palms!

"Such strong chakra..."

The black-robed man in the sky and the masked man who was confronting the Third Hokage and Yoruki, both clearly felt the chakra erupting in the center of Konoha at this moment.

"Minato..."

"Lord Fourth..."

Kushina, Suzuka and all the sensor ninjas in Konoha also noticed the fluctuations emitted by Minato at this time.

The black barrier lines continued to spread and soon extended to several kilometers. However, compared to the huge city of Konoha, this range was still too small.

"The seal mark of the Flying Thunder God?"

The pattern quickly reached the battlefield where the masked man and others were. The latter lowered his eyes and murmured softly.

He knew that during the Third Ninja World War, Namikaze Minato used this method to trap hundreds of Iwagakure ninjas and killed them one by one.

And now, his purpose of using this barrier is very clear. Once the physical barrier fails to defend successfully, these marks spread throughout Konoha will allow him to move with the injured civilians.

Minato Namikaze, who is neither a Jinchūriki nor someone with a bloodline, actually possesses this level of chakra.

If he hadn't seized his weak spot as the Hokage, even if he and the black-robed man joined forces, they probably wouldn't be able to kill him.

If this person is not eliminated and allowed to grow, he will become an extremely terrifying enemy.

In the center of Konoha, when Minato spread the barrier to cover nearly half of Konoha, his own chakra and that of his Sage technique were exhausted.

However, just when this power was exhausted, power surged out from his body again.

With the continuous outflow of the Nine-Tails' power, Minato was able to continue expanding the barrier.

Finally, after using up an amount of chakra equal to twice his own, the black barrier lines finally filled the entire Konoha Ninja Village.

At this time, everyone in Konoha naturally noticed the patterns under their feet.

Therefore, those who are familiar with Minato know that he is protecting them at this moment.

"Seal!"

When the lines covered the entire village, Minato put his hands together and saw a faint light emanating from the edge of Konoha, where the lines ended.

The light formed a transparent film that extended continuously upwards.

"It's amazing that he can create a barrier of this scale."

High in the sky, the man in the black robe exclaimed, and the transparent film even closed towards where he was.

Minato couldn't stop him at this moment, so he could adjust the height at will. If the black-robed man was within the range of the barrier when it closed, it would be meaningless.

Therefore, there is a mark of Minato's teleportation on the barrier. As long as the man in the black robe is within the range of the barrier, he can teleport and launch an attack.

However, since they gave Minato time to release the barrier, they naturally had no such plans.

In the air, the position of the man in the black robe rose again.

Under his feet, the transparent barrier film and the black lines were connected together and finally closed.

At this moment, in the eyes of the black-robed man, a huge bowl-shaped barrier surrounded the entire Konoha.

Seeing this, the man in the black robe raised a hint of mockery at the corner of his mouth.

The chakra that had been stored in his body suddenly burst out at this moment, and the space around him began to tremble wildly.

"Shinra Tensei!"

Chapter 625: Retreat

The moment the black-robed man's chakra exploded, there was a violent flash of white light in the sky above Konoha, as dazzling as the sun.

"Here it comes!"

At this time, all the ninjas in Konoha who were able to sense chakra noticed this fluctuation and cried out in shock.

"Boom!"

The powerful repulsive force immediately hit the bowl-shaped barrier that protected the entire village.

The barrier began to shake violently, and the huge tremor, like an earthquake, swept across the entire Konoha.

"What a terrifying power!"

On the battlefield where Hiruzen and others were, everyone who was fighting was shocked by this power and stopped temporarily.

They raised their eyes, and even though it was dark, they could clearly see the ripples of power caused by the huge force in the sky above Konoha, causing ripples on the barrier like water waves.

In the center of Konoha, Minato clasped his hands together tightly. This barrier was controlled by him, so he could clearly feel how terrifyingly powerful the move used by the man in the black robe was at this moment.

Its power was at least several times greater than that of the Nine-Tails' Tailed Beast Ball.

The barrier he cast was the same advanced barrier technique of the Uzumaki clan that Kushina used to trap the Nine-Tails.

The strength of this barrier is naturally extraordinary to be able to trap tailed beasts, but even so, if Minato was not maintaining it, the barrier would be shattered by this powerful force within a few seconds.

From this, we can see how huge the damage would be if this force directly acted on Konoha, its civilians and ninjas.

The two forces reached their extremes, one attacking and one defending, and a fierce collision occurred throughout the entire Konoha.

A huge tremor continued to spread throughout Konoha, and some houses collapsed immediately due to the vibration.

"Hehe."

Under this kind of power, the only one who seemed calm was the masked man. He observed the collision of this extreme power with great interest and even chuckled.

At this time, in one of the battle areas, Kakuzu and Jiraiya were fighting evenly.

Jiraiya was shocked, because Kakuzu was actually using four types of jutsu at the same time, and each of them was at the top level.

This was definitely not something that an ordinary person could do. Among the people he knew and had heard of, no one could compare to him except the Third Hokage and his rain disciple.

At this time, Sasori of the Red Sand was forced into a somewhat embarrassing situation by Hatake Sakumo. Although he was controlling a human puppet with the ability of the Third Kazekage, and he had also been training hard in the past few years.

But he is still a little young after all. Today's Hatake Sakumo is at his peak. After constant fighting, Sasori has become particularly vulnerable.

However, under the siege of two masters, the Third Hokage and Uchiha Yoruki, the masked man did not show the slightest weakness.

This doesn't mean that his strength is strong enough to compete with these two people, but his strange ability makes it impossible for any attack to hit him.

"How long can you last?"

The masked man stared at Uchiha Yoruki in front of him. How could he, who had just mastered Susanoo, really have any influence on him?

Compared with the other two abilities of the Mangekyō, Susanoo consumes more chakra and pupil power.

"Woosh!"

The attacks of the Third Hokage and Uchiha Yoruki fell, and the masked man ran forward to meet them.

The attacks of the two men went straight through his body.

"Slash!"

The short tonto in Hatake Sakumo's hand emitted a strong White Light Chakra, which directly cut the iron sand that Sasori used for defense into two pieces, and then the blade chopped down on his head.

At this moment, the space between him and Sasori of the Red Sand suddenly twisted.

Seeing this, Sakumo suddenly stepped back.

He doesn't master space-time ninjutsu like Minato, so he would be in trouble if he was caught in the distorted space.

The masked man rescued Sasori of the Red Sand who was about to be defeated, and at this moment, a red sword light suddenly fell behind him.

"Now you can't dematerialize!"

Uchiha Yoruki shouted. He already knew that when the masked man released his eye technique, it could only be used on himself or somewhere else.

This is the weakness of his ability!

"Very smart."

The masked man chuckled, and then light blue chakra burst out from his body again, immediately forming an armored Susanoo behind him.

"Clang!"

The Flaming Blade slashed on it, making a crisp collision sound.

Uchiha Yoruki's pupils shrank. Since he opened the Mangekyō Sharingan, it was the first time he saw a defense that could withstand the Rakka no Ken.

However, soon, cracks began to spread on Susanoo's armor.

Within a few breaths, the armor collapsed and the tip of the Blade pointed directly at the masked man.

But this time, the attack once again penetrated through his body unhindered.

"It's all in vain."

The masked man murmured softly. During the few breaths when Uchiha Yoruki broke through his defense, he did not do nothing.

Susanoo enveloped Sasori, and the masked man placed his hands on his shoulders. Then the space twisted and pulled the latter in.

"It looks like it's almost there."

The masked man raised his eyes. During their fight, the huge repulsive force continued to collide with the barrier covering the entire Konoha.

He doesn't care about these.

In his perception, the chakra fluctuations of Minato, who was maintaining the barrier in the center of Konoha, had become extremely weak.

Although it was beyond his expectation that Minato could defend against this move, his goal had been achieved.

As if knowing his intention, Kakuzu, who was fighting with Jiraiya, also retreated to the side of the masked man.

Chakra burst out from the latter's body again, repairing the parts damaged by Uchiha Yoruki.

"Haah."

After doing this, the masked man took a deep breath. It was the first time he felt the limit of this power since he opened the Mangekyō Sharingan.

After a series of battles, he was extremely exhausted. If it was just an ordinary Mangekyō, it would probably be extremely difficult to maintain it at this time.

"I told you, it's not that easy to leave!"

Uchiha Yoruki and the others certainly noticed the next intention of the masked man and the others.

"Your pupil power is still too weak."

However, the latter did not take it seriously. He grinned grimly, and a chain condensed in the palm of the light blue Susanoo, which he then swung violently!

"Woosh!"

Wherever the chains danced, the space began to distort. With such distortion, no one except Minato dared to approach easily.

Hiruzen and the others were isolated by the masked man, and vortex-like ripples were rippling in the space around him.

Then, before the four people's eyes, the masked man and Kakuzu were swept in and disappeared.
