“Third Hokage-sama!
Urgent military report!
Kumogakure has invaded our eastern border!”
Upon seeing the Kumogakure army advancing toward the eastern part of Konoha, a Konoha Ninja immediately returned to the Village to inform the “Strongest Hokage of All Generations,” Hiruzen Sarutobi.
Hiruzen Sarutobi was not actually surprised that Kumogakure would invade; on the contrary, he was surprised it had taken them this long since the war began.
Hiruzen Sarutobi puffed on his pipe, pondering for a moment with a rhythmic clicking sound.
“Shikaku, bring me my battle gear!”
Sakumo Hatake was fighting Sunagakure, and the Legendary Sannin were fighting Iwagakure.
Currently, the only Kage-level combatants Konoha could field were Danzo and himself.
But it was clear that Danzo could not stop the Third Raikage.
“Hokage-sama, things haven’t reached that point yet, have they?
We could have Danzo-sama lead a group to stall the Third Raikage and wait for Sakumo Hatake-sama to win and provide reinforcements!”
Nara Shikaku tried to persuade Hiruzen Sarutobi from the side.
“No, let Danzo stay to guard Konoha Village.
Danzo cannot stop the Third Raikage; only I can go to withstand him!”
In his middle age, Hiruzen Sarutobi was not yet the ‘Ninja Bear’ of his later years, but a true ‘Ninja Hero’ who stood unrivaled in the Ninja World!
Seeing his Hokage’s expression, Nara Shikaku knew he couldn’t be persuaded and could only go to fetch the battle gear.
“Shikaku, go call Danzo here.
If there are any matters you cannot decide, ask him!
I am heading to the eastern battlefield!”
After giving Nara Shikaku his instructions, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately selected a group of people and led them toward the eastern battlefield.
Perhaps it was this kind of unfettered power granted to Danzo that allowed him to get a taste of it, leading to his eventual corruption.
“Yes, Hokage-sama!”
After Nara Shikaku finished speaking, he went to call Danzo from Root.
Root at this time was not yet as outrageous as it would become in the future; it was actually not much different from the Anbu.
It was only under the Third Hokage’s increasingly lax control that Danzo developed inappropriate ambitions, turning Root into a living hell.
But let us leave that aside for now and return to the other side of the story.
“Raikage-sama, we have sensed a large amount of Ninja Chakra ahead!
The eastern border of Konoha should be just ahead!”
A Ninja from the sensory unit reported the results of their sensing to the Third Raikage.
“Good!
In one fell swoop, we will take the eastern border of Konoha!”
The Third Raikage roared in his powerful voice, and then, leading the charge, he rushed toward the eastern border of Konoha!
“Earth Style: Mud Wall!”
“Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!”
“Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!”
“Shadow Neck Binding Technique!”
“Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm!”
A wide variety of Ninjutsu were launched at the Third Raikage.
It had to be said that the Konoha Ninjas at the border were much stronger than those of other Villages!
However, it was clear that their Ninjutsu had very little effect on the Third Raikage.
Even the Nara clan’s Shadow Neck Binding Technique couldn’t even budge the Third Raikage’s neck!
“This is troublesome…”
Kuki Nara, the commander of the eastern border, looked at the Third Raikage with a solemn expression.
“We must do our utmost to stall the Third Raikage and wait for reinforcements from the Village!”
“Everyone who can use Earth Release, do your best to block the Third Raikage!
The Yamanaka clan, use Mind Transfer to interfere!”
“Everyone else, hold off the Kumogakure Ninjas!”
Kuki Nara knew very well that direct offensive Ninjutsu would be useless against the Third Raikage; they could only use Earth Release to stall for as much time as possible!
“Earth Style: Mud Wall!”
“Earth Release: Swamp of the Underworld!”
“Mind Transfer Technique!”
A barrage of crowd-control Ninjutsu was launched at the Third Raikage.
The Third Raikage alone forced nearly half of the opposing Ninjas to use control techniques on him, barely managing to keep him at bay!
But the Kumogakure army outside wasn’t just for show.
Their numbers were already more than triple those at the border, and with the Raikage stalling half of the defenders, there was now nearly a six-fold difference!
“Forward!
Assist the Raikage-sama!”
Dodai gave the order.
The Kumogakure army charged toward the Konoha Ninjas.
Ye Yue Ling was also in the ranks, alongside Yezhue Ai.
“Multi-Size Technique!”
A member of the Akimichi clan enlarged his body several times, attempting to block the Kumogakure army.
But in the next moment, he was hit by an overwhelming barrage of Ninjutsu.
After supporting for only a few seconds, he fell to the ground, heavily injured.
Ye Yue Ling was also assisting Yezhue Ai, performing Lariat Lightning Blade together to slaughter the enemy.
At least a dozen Ninjas died under their combined assault.
On the other side, although more than two hundred Ninjas were desperately trying to stop the Third Raikage, they only managed to stall him for about ten minutes!
Soon the Third Raikage broke through and began to massacre everyone with his Four-Finger Piercing!
“Dammit, why hasn’t the reinforcement arrived yet!
We’re about to lose our position!”
Kuki Nara was highly intelligent, but even the cleverest housewife cannot cook without rice.
In the face of absolute strength, all he could do was stall for a few more minutes.
Just as the border was about to fall, the Third Hokage finally arrived with his men!
“Earth Release: Earth Dragon Bullet!
Fire Release: Fire Dragon Bullet!”
“Combined Technique: Earth-Fire Dragon Stream!” You are reading on g.com, the official source.
As soon as Hiruzen Sarutobi arrived, he launched a combined Ninjutsu at the advancing Kumogakure army, halting their progress!
He then ordered the Ninjas behind him to support the border line while he went to duel the Third Raikage one-on-one!
Hiruzen Sarutobi wasted no words with the Third Raikage and immediately summoned Enma, the Monkey King!
“Monkey, is it another big battle?”
“Yes, Enma.
Transform: Adamantine Nyoi Staff!”
Upon hearing this, Enma immediately transformed into the Nyoi Staff!
“The Hokage-sama is personally taking the field!”
“We will definitely win!”
Seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi personally taking action, the morale of the border Ninjas soared, and they clashed with the Kumogakure army alongside the new reinforcements!
“Lariat Lightning Blade!”
Yezhue Ai and Ye Yue Ling targeted a Ninja from the Uchiha Clan, rapidly moving to strike his neck!
“Fire…”
Even though this Uchiha Ninja had activated his One-Tomoe Sharingan, he still couldn’t block the combination technique of the Yezhue brothers.
His head was instantly twisted off, and he died on the spot!
The Yezhue brothers were wreaking havoc on the battlefield, while on the other side, the Third Hokage was locked in a fierce battle with the Third Raikage!
“Hell Thrust: Two-Finger Pierce!”
The Raikage reduced his fingers to two and charged at Hiruzen Sarutobi with extreme speed!
“Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!
Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!”
“Combined Technique: Super Great Dragon Fire Technique!”
The wind fueled the fire, and with the enhancement of the Wind Release, the flames instantly became incredibly massive.
Even the Third Raikage began to temporarily retreat from its peak; if he were hit by this move, even he would be injured!
“Enma!
Adamantine Prison Wall!”
Hiruzen Sarutobi threw the staff in his hand, which transformed mid-flight into a cage, trapping the Third Raikage!
“Hell Stab: One-Finger Pierce!”
The Third Raikage also unleashed his strongest One-Finger Pierce.
The powerful force instantly shattered the Adamantine Prison Wall, and Enma was knocked unconscious, vanishing in a puff of white smoke!
But in those few seconds while Enma had him trapped, Hiruzen Sarutobi had already created four clones!
