Escape From Konoha

The damp water prison is large enough to accommodate the tailed beast's rampage.

The battle lasted for almost a day and a night. The aura on Kyuubi's body was still strong, but Naruto felt extremely exhausted physically and mentally. He was starting to feel a little weak in both physical strength and chakra.

The sense of oppression brought by Kyuubi's huge body is one thing. What is more important is that Kyuubi's physical strength is unlimited, and since it restores chakra faster than it is consumed, as long as it is maintained within this limit, Kyuubi can The chakra of the tail is equal to infinite, and there will never be a lack of chakra.

Therefore, as long as there are no means such as sealing techniques that specifically target tailed beasts, it would be unwise to engage in a protracted war with tailed beasts.

Not to mention, his opponent is the Nine-Tails, the strongest among the tailed beasts.

——Don’t think about defeating the Nine-Tails with chakra and ninjutsu, it’s useless to it, find a way to get close to it, use your chakra to pull its chakra out of its body, and then turn its chakra into yours thing.

Kirabi's voice sounded in Naruto's mind, and its serious tone gave Naruto a sense of urgency.

However, although Kirabi gave the method, getting close to the Nine-Tails and plundering the chakra from the opponent's body was not an easy task.

Naruto tried several times before, but he could only plunder a little bit each time. As the Nine-Tails' chakra entered his body, the heavy feeling of being eroded by darkness came to his heart again, making Naruto realize that this kind of thing You can't be impatient, you have to adapt to the darkness of Kyuubi first, and you can't swallow the chakra of Kyuubi in one go.

Otherwise, his will will be eroded by Kyuubi's will and he will completely become a puppet controlled by Kyuubi.

In addition, there is another difficulty.

——No, Uncle Bi. When I pull out its chakra, the Kyuubi will also pull out the chakra in my body.

Naruto expressed this difficulty in his mind, and was quite anxious inside.

The Kyuubi is not a dead thing that cannot move. After being released and sealed, he can also plunder Naruto's chakra.

Once the Jinchuuriki's chakra is exhausted, the Nine-Tails can successfully counterattack and control Naruto's body, allowing him to break through the shackles of the seal and completely resurrect in the outside world.

——Of course, tailed beasts are not ordinary creatures, and their intelligence is no weaker than humans. When our jinchuuriki intends to control it, it will also take this opportunity to control the jinchuuriki in turn. However, no matter how difficult this matter is, you must complete it, otherwise it will be meaningless.

Kirabi told Naruto solemnly.

The battle with Nine-Tails was far more dangerous than his original battle with Eight-Tails.

It was obvious that there was only a difference in the mantissa, but the result was a qualitative difference, which made Kirabi very shocked.

And as far as Kirabi knew, this seemed to be only half of the Nine Tails, not the complete state.

Kirabi felt that this might have something to do with the Ten-Tails.

As the being closest to the Ten-Tails, the Nine-Tails is obviously more special than the other tailed beasts in terms of power and nature.

If it weren't for the wrong timing, Kirabi would have liked to sing a song to complain about his current depressed mood.

They are both tailed beasts, but there is such a big gap.

Over there, Kyuubi was still roaring loudly, struggling to tear at the octopus tentacles with suckers wrapped around its body.

This is the tail of the eight tails.

"Get out of here, old man!"

Finally, Eight-Tails' octopus tentacles seemed to be exhausted, and Nine-Tails violently broke away.

The shackles of restraint were removed, and the Nine-Tails waved its claws as sharp as blades, launching a fierce attack on Naruto.

The Eight-Tails can only act as a distraction in this space, so the Nine-Tails understands that his only real enemy is Naruto.

As long as it plunders Naruto's chakra, it can not only obtain everything about Naruto, but also be completely resurrected in the outside world.

Therefore, even though he was angry at the Eight-Tails for helping the tyrant, he decided to kill Naruto first, and then go to settle the score with that bastard traitor, the Eight-Tails.

Facing Kyuubi's fierce attack, Naruto could only dodge.

It would be unwise to fight Kyuubi from the front.

boom!

The ground of the huge water prison suddenly shattered, leaving deep scratches on the ground, like ravines.

Kyuubi glided forward at lightning speed, and the ground shook with rumbling sounds. Rocks collapsed from above the water prison, as if the water prison was on the verge of collapse and could be collapsed by the power of Kyuubi at any time. .

However, even so, the water prison still endured. It looks like it's crumbling, but the space here is stronger than imagined.

Naruto jumped back and condensed a black ball in his right hand.

"This thing is that old man from Liu Dao..."

Kyuubi roared in a low voice, narrowed his eyes burning with rage, the hair on his body exploded, he raised his neck slightly, and opened his mouth.

Chakra balls the size of fingers or fists quickly condensed in Kyuubi's open mouth.

Finally, a black sphere was formed that was large enough to open the Nine-Tails' huge mouth.

Different from the seeking jade created by Naruto, the chakra ball condensed by the nine tails emitted a strange and dangerous purple-black light. Even the space around the ball was swallowed up, and the light in the water prison suddenly decreased.

call out!

The black ball and the black ball are launched simultaneously and collide directly in the air.

At the moment of detonation, Naruto, who was dozens of meters away from the explosion site, had no time to dodge and was directly swallowed by the burst of light.

The water prison space emitted a trembling cry.

The destructive energy storm occupied every inch of the water prison, trying to evaporate everything in sight.

Kyuubi was unscathed by this energy storm, but carefully narrowed his eyes and scanned the blank space in front of him.

In the energy storm ahead that has not completely dissipated, Naruto's aura still exists and is not weak.

"Niu Gui, it's you that bastard again."

Kyuubi cursed softly.

In the overflowing energy storm, eight octopus tentacles formed a circle, forming an absolute defense to protect Naruto and prevent him from being injured in the explosion.

"However, you are almost exhausted here now."

Kyuubi said with narrowed eyes.

There was no reply, but Kyuubi confirmed this.

Although it failed to hurt Naruto, the tailed beast jade launched by clearing away the obstacle of the eight tails was not without effect.

——Sorry, Naruto.

Kirabi controlled the eight-tailed tentacle tail and slowly faded away, revealing Naruto wrapped in the tentacle tail.

——Helping you block this attack consumes most of my energy. Next, when fighting the Kyuubi, I won’t be able to provide much help.

Kirabi's voice was extremely weak and seemed out of breath.

After all, this is Naruto's spiritual space, and the help he can provide here is really limited.

On the other hand, because Kyuubi was too powerful, he was somewhat unprepared.

"Huh...huh..."

Naruto panted slightly, staring at the Kyuubi in front of him without blinking.

In a body as big as a small mountain, chakra is still at its peak, as if it is endless and cannot be seen to the end.

"That guy Eight-Tails is useless, and that bastard Minato can't provide you with any help either. After all, this is the battlefield between you and me. Do you have any last words to say now, Naruto? I will give you a good time."

Kyuubi took a step forward, bared his teeth, exposed his thick black lips, and smiled cunningly and evilly.

◎

One o'clock in the afternoon, bear country.

On the first day of the official start of the Fifth Ninja War, Shiraishi and the other two people had already set off from the Kingdom of Demons and rushed here.

The Kingdom of Bears will serve as the base camp for the Demon Kingdom's military to respond to the Fifth Ninja War.

In the leadership conference room, after less than half an hour of meeting, senior military officials had received their respective tasks and began to go down to make deployments. In the conference room, only Shiraishi and the other three were still lingering.

On the wall directly in front of the conference room, there is a map of the ninja world, which details the locations of war zones and safe zones, as well as important transportation routes, and even complex terrain such as jungles, rivers, and valleys. It is also carefully marked. mark. Let the viewer know at a glance what kind of deployment can be adopted based on this map.

Shiraishi stared at the map, focusing on three areas.

The country of bears, the country of iron, and the country of Taki are bordered by the country of rain.

These three areas are respectively the country of ghosts, the alliance army, and the location of Akatsuki's power base camp.

It can be said that the concentrated forces in these three areas are the most powerful.

Before removing the obstacles on the road, it cannot be said that it is not possible to directly attack the enemy's base camp, but it is quite difficult.

Even the Alliance Army, which seems to lack the most top-notch ninja combat power, is not without the ability to fight. What's more, there is a ninja like Danzo who is good at hiding and unscrupulous in the Alliance Army. I don't know when he plans to come out. There is still Akatsuki in the Kingdom of Biting Ghosts.

Like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark, it will deliver a fatal blow at the critical moment.

"The search for Turtle Island by Akatsuki seems to have failed. It seems that the two Jinchuriki of the Alliance are safe for the time being."

Ayane looked at the waters of the Kingdom of Water on the map. The current location of Turtle Island is hidden in the waters of the Kingdom of Water. However, because the sea area there is very vast, even if the Sensing Ninja wants to find the moving Turtle Island, it is not possible. A simple thing.

In addition, Turtle Island is equipped with high-tech radars by the Kumogakure ninjas, which can reflect the detection of sensory ninjutsu and block the chakra reactions of creatures on the island. As a result, Turtle Island looks like a very ordinary building from the outside. island, further increasing the difficulty of searching for it.

"Yes, no matter what, it is the territory of Cloud Hidden Village that cannot be accurately displayed on the map. If the whole world is wandering around, even a ninja who is proficient in water will have no choice but to try his luck to find it. .”

Shiraishi nodded.

This news did not surprise him.

He had never had such an idea of ​​looking down on the Alliance Army.

Personally, he has paid close attention to the strength of the major powers in the Alliance Army countless times.

But even so, there are still areas among them that even the Kingdom of Ghosts cannot touch.

After all, they were once the five major nations that served as models for the ninja world.

It is a powerful country that stands at the top of the ninja world.

If the Alliance Army was led by Akatsuki so easily and couldn't even hide two jinchūriki, Shiraishi would have to wonder if there were some inner ghosts in the Alliance Army that he didn't know about. This fifth ninja war will also directly enter the decisive moment.

"It's not just that. I heard that there is an ancient ruins on Turtle Island that were acquired by Kumogakure Village. That ruins can be used to suppress the power of tailed beasts and assist the jinchuriki in controlling the tailed beasts. The eight-tailed jinchuriki is there. Completed the training of a perfect Jinchuuriki."

Liuli clasped her hands on her chest, looking towards the sea area of ​​the Kingdom of Water with a cold light in her dark pupils.

"That nine-tailed brat? If he is allowed to complete the training of a perfect Jinchuuriki on Turtle Island, things may become difficult... Do we need to get rid of him first?"

Ayane narrowed her eyes slightly, with a sharp gaze shooting out of her white pupils.

"It's not that easy to solve him. Namikaze Minato is still hiding in his body. If his life is in danger, Minato will definitely use the Flying Thunder God Technique to take him away and transfer him to a safer place. If you want to solve Nine The tail jinchuriki must kill the Minato guy first, otherwise he will only alert the enemy. After all, this is the last trump card in Minato's hand that can compete with me. He really worked hard for Konoha, and even I was about to be killed. I was moved by his spirit of self-sacrifice.”

Shiraishi smiled, but his look didn't look like he was touched, but instead contained murderous intent.

"That is to say, there will be a chance to fight against him later, right?"

Liuli didn't pay attention to this. Instead, she was looking forward to being able to fight Minato.

"It depends on what he is thinking. The first time I killed him was because of surprise, and the second time I killed him sixteen years ago was an accident. Things cannot be changed. He will not give me a third chance. Take action at the first opportunity. The most important thing is that I hate fighting with ninjas like him. I can deal with most ninjas, but there is nothing I can do about the space-time ninjutsu that cannot be restricted by the Flying Thunder God Jutsu."

Therefore, if you want to actually kill Minato, Shiraishi believes that the best way is not to consider within the chessboard, but to consider factors outside the chessboard.

"The art of Flying Thunder God is really troublesome."

Liuli nodded.

She and Minato had fought face to face, but they couldn't touch each other's body at all.

"Rather than that, you should think about how to deal with your student named Metkai. When you were in the Kingdom of Wind, you fought against ninjas with eight armors fully activated, and were forced into a desperate situation. Keep it for yourself. Solve the trouble yourself."

Ayane intervened at this time, reminding Liuli that there was another problem that needed to be dealt with.

Moreover, this trouble was caused by Liuli's whim.

Just because the other party might grow to the same level as herself, letting the other party live is, in Ayane's view, just asking for trouble.

Liuli just snorted coldly.

"You don't need to explain this kind of thing, I will take care of it."

"I hope so. If you don't change this habit, you will swallow the bitter pill sooner or later. When the time comes, I won't wipe your ass."

"If you feel uncomfortable, I wouldn't mind loosening your bones."

"Oh, you just suppressed me at the beginning that day, and you were so proud of it, but what happened later? I remember that I was not the one who was suppressed... Just like men, women can develop more abilities if they last longer. Tricks.”

"It's really ridiculous. The reason why you had time to take a breath and regain your strength is entirely because of the opportunity I gave you. Don't forget this. If I think about it, no matter how strong your endurance is, it will be meaningless once you are seriously injured."

Liuli and Ayane's eyes met, and their gazes collided in the air like lightning, and the air froze.

Seeing the two secretly competing, Shiraishi pretended not to hear, coughed softly, and looked at the map intently, as if there was a part of the map that attracted attention.

…

In the open-air workshop, the glass barrier above is open, and you can see the clear sky above.

There are mechanical parts hanging everywhere. You can clearly see that those things are various styles of mechanical prostheses, armor parts of armored vehicles, and tubular barrels used to aim at targets. Some are old, and some are very new.

The young man wearing a monocle was wearing a white coat that was only worn by senior technicians. There was a lot of oil stains on it, which ruined the pure white color of the coat, but the overall image was quite neat.

There was a nameplate hanging on the collar of the coat, with the name 'Uchiha Asuka' written on it.

Wearing a pair of white gloves that were also stained by machine oil, he picked up the screwdriver and turned the screws on the cyborg lying on the ground.

The overall structure of the mechanical beast has a rather primitive style, but the precision-made parts are completely consistent with the flesh and blood. It makes people realize that such a machine must have put a lot of effort into matching this flesh and blood body, and the Demon Kingdom Army has devoted a lot of effort. Technicians Fang have extremely high willpower.

After finally screwing on the last screw, Feiniao put the screwdriver in the tool storage box next to him, stood up, and clapped his hands.

"Okay, Thunder Pill, you don't have to come over to replace parts for the next month."

Asuka said to the motionless cyborg beast lying on the ground.

Signaling him to get up.

"Feiniao, I'm not talking about you, why do you always work so fast? Don't you know that if you replace my parts so quickly, I will be thrown into the battlefield? That hateful old man likes me very much. This is a labor force that works hard and never complains."

Thunderbolt, a thunder beast that is a mixture of flesh and blood and machinery, raised its head slightly from its prostrate body on the ground. The mechanical wings on both sides, which were extended like blades, flapped gently, stirring up a weak airflow.

He was looking at Asuka with a resentful look, as if blaming him for his dedicated work attitude.

After all, he works so hard, who is he performing for?

That old man?

No, when he saw this scene, he would only exploit his sons' labor force even more unscrupulously.

He is such a shameless man.

Let your children work hard in various positions, while you are busy in the office, drinking afternoon tea and reading novels that are not suitable for minors.

Thundermaru knew that kind of novel was written by the deceased Sannin of Konoha.

As the Minister of Military Affairs of the Kingdom of Ghosts, he actually used money to finance the enemy. This was undoubtedly a betrayal.

"You can't say that. This is a critical moment in the war. If you go there, you can relieve a lot of pressure on the rest of the troops. Moreover, Yi Ji is also there."

Asuka smiled and didn't pay attention to Thunder Maru's teasing.

Lei Mingwan sighed helplessly, and flapped his wings while breathing heavily. He lowered his head feebly and lifted his four legs off the ground, floating two meters in the air.

It's clearly written on its face that it doesn't want to work or go to the battlefield.

"That's why I don't want to go there. It's okay to be bossed around by the old man here, but when I get to the front line, I have to be enslaved by the young lady... I feel like I can't escape this fate anywhere."

Lei Mingmaru wanted to write the word "miserable" on himself, anticipating the miserable future he might encounter on the front line.

"It's not that exaggerated."

"Forget it, you can't understand this kind of thing. Only those who have experienced it personally will understand how bad the father and daughter are. Speaking of which, Asuka, aren't you going to the front line? I remember you are also a Jonin."

Thundermaru looked at Asuka.

"Well... I won't go there and cause trouble for you. My position of Jonin was specially promoted because of my job. After all, I haven't fought with anyone for several years, and I have almost forgotten how to fight. Moreover, with you and Ichiji here, my impact as a jounin on the battle situation will be insignificant."

Asuka looked up at the Thunder Pill flying in the air, showing a helpless smile.

"You like to belittle yourself too much."

"This is true."

The scale of this war was unprecedented. Even the five-kage level ninjas played a very weak role in the battle. It could even be said that they were insignificant.

After all, his younger brother Cai, who has the strength of the Five Shadows, is in the fourth squadron of the vanguard force and holds the position of squadron leader.

Although this is related to the reason why the military of the Kingdom of Ghosts is so strong, at the beginning of the battle, you can have the luxury of playing a few trump cards, advancing the front line as quickly as possible, and boosting morale. He even threw Yi Ji, a mobile natural disaster, directly to the front line and pushed him all the way.

In comparison, the Alliance Army and Xiao's side seemed to be very strapped in this regard.

The Five Shadows were stationed at the Alliance Army Headquarters and were reluctant to move. Although the ninjas at the captain level were quite capable, they were still far from capable of turning the tide of the war on their own.

Akatsuki's leader is very strong, but he is also weak. There are only a handful of powerful ninjas who can be freely mobilized.

As for the headquarters of the Bear Kingdom, as long as three leaders are personally in charge, they can stabilize the people's hearts and make any invading powerful enemies defeated.

As for Uchiha Obito, Hatake Kakashi, Xuan Yuzhong, and Shiraishi clones, they are all top soldiers who can be freely assigned. As long as they intervene on the battlefield, they can quickly produce immediate results.

Not to mention, on the western border of the Earth Kingdom, there is still Uchiha Sasuke, the rising star of the Uchiha clan, who has not yet moved out.

The Alliance Army stationed more than 20,000 ninjas in the Land of Earth. They did not transfer them to the Land of Grass and entered the flank to attack Akatsuki. This was to prevent the Kingdom of Demons troops stationed on the western border of the Kingdom of Earth and make the Kingdom of Earth a barrier to the Kingdom of Demons. The first barrier to the Allied forces in the United States.

And the main force of that army was Uchiha Sasuke.

Therefore, Asuka felt that with his Jonin-level strength, he was just a slightly larger cannon fodder without any weight on a battlefield where monsters gathered.

"Don't worry about me. Everyone is good at different things. Even in the rear, I can provide assistance to those fighting on the front line."

Asuka, who was well aware of his abilities, refused Thundermaru's invitation.

"Okay, that's not bad. At least it's much safer here than the front line. Then, I have to leave too. See you later."

Thundermaru nodded and used his wings to easily drag his semi-mechanized body into the air, until he flew over the roof of the workshop and disappeared under the blue sky.
