Chapter 246 Cutting off the Thunder from Yunyin
"Konoha ninja! Don't even think about getting through here!"
As violent thunder raged in the rainstorm, an angry roar resounded through the heaven and earth.
The faces of the group of Cloud Ninjas who had escaped in a panic from afar were filled with anger. The Fourth Raikage Ai, who was in the lead, had tears and rain mixed on his cheeks. He suppressed his anger and shouted:
"Don't let the Third Raikage down! Everyone, break through as quickly as possible and return to the Land of Lightning!"
The Cloud Ninjas paid a heavy price, and with the Third Raikage personally covering their rear, they had time to break out.
Thunder flashed in the distant canyon.
The Third Raikage Ai, who had fallen into rampage mode, was seen roaring madly.
"If you want to get through here, you have to step over my body first!"
The Konoha ninjas were also extremely angry, but facing the Raikage who no longer cared about his own life and went straight into a rampage mode, it was comparable to a tailed beast going berserk.
"All Chuunin retreat from the battle, Jonin stay at a safe distance... This is not a battle you can participate in!"
puff!
Under the shocked gazes of the Konoha ninjas, blood splattered everywhere. The Third Raikage was so crazy that he gouged out his own eyes.
"Haha, Uchiha Ye! I know your Mangekyō has hidden powers, but now I have dug out my eyes, your Mangekyō has no effect on me!"
At this time, with lightning flashing all around him, Uchiha Ye felt a strong pressure facing the violent Third Raikage, which made him frown secretly.
The Third Raikage had completely gone berserk and was madly using the Lightning Release Mode. His skin had begun to turn red and blood was constantly oozing out of his pores. However, blood was instantly evaporated under the runaway Lightning Release Chakra.
"Third Raikage, are you really going to die?"
Uchiha Ya, holding the Kusanagi sword, and the Third Raikage turned into two bolts of lightning and fought fiercely.
There were also some Cloud Ninjas left behind around, and after seeing their own Raikage fighting desperately, they all roared in determination.
"Kill!"
With this reckless fighting style, their combat power increased greatly, and for a while, this elite force was actually dragged into the canyon by the Cloud Ninjas.
“Haha, Uchiha Ye! When I stayed behind to cover your retreat, I knew you wouldn’t let me go. So I might as well do my best to hold you back!”
The Third Raikage laughed wildly without any regret. The Cloud Ninja Village was too weak now, and if this elite force had to stay behind.
Even if he went back, it would take the Cloud Ninja Village 20 years to rise again, and at his age, his fighting power would decline rapidly in three to five years at most.
Therefore, exchanging an old and useless Raikage for the future of the Cloud Ninja is a very worthwhile deal.
"night!"
Uzumaki Kushina shouted angrily. She had finally seized the opportunity, but the elite main force of the Cloud Ninja escaped. It would be a great loss if she missed this opportunity.
"Don't be impulsive Kushina, we have lost the chance to keep all the Kumo ninja after they broke out."
Ninja Corps combat is not as simple as squad mode.
Although a Kage-level warrior is powerful, he is still unable to defeat an entire army by himself.
Uchiha Mikoto looked at the situation on the battlefield and began to take command instead of Uchiha Ye.
"Everyone, focus on delaying the fight. Since the Cloud Ninja wants to delay us, then we will completely leave their Third Raikage behind!"
In the distance, Tsunade's support team was on their way.
"Lady Tsunade, the latest information from the village."
In the heavy rain, countless Konoha ninjas in the forest advanced quickly. Along the way, the Cloud Ninjas also set up many traps when they retreated quickly, which slowed them down for so long.
"These old guys!"
When Tsunade saw the information sent by the village, she couldn't help but frown and then showed dissatisfaction.
A bunch of corrupt old guys, they can't wait to start fighting among themselves before the war is completely over.
"Each foreign war is worse than the last, with stupid decisions and commands, and each internal fight is more cunning than the last!"
Tsunade crushed the scroll in her hand into pieces and sneered sarcastically.
This scene was not hidden from anyone, causing many Konoha's jonin to secretly twitch their lips, but the only one in Konoha who had the courage to do this in front of everyone was Tsunade.
Considering the rumors that suddenly broke out before and the current situation, there aren't many fools among the jonin.
"Lady Tsunade, isn't this a good idea?"
However, at this moment, a weak and silent voice was heard beside her, which made Tsunade look back and saw the little girl with black hair and lowered head following behind her.
After the baptism of the battlefield, the fourteen-year-old elite Chunin has good talent. He usually looks weak, but unexpectedly, at this moment, he dares to speak.
"not too good!?"
I thought that would anger Tsunade, but under Shizune's worried look, Tsunade simply sneered.
"These old guys don't even have the courage to come to the front line. What do they know? The battle on the front line was fought by countless ninjas of our Konoha. It was not a peace achieved by the conspiracy of these old guys in the rear."
Shizune felt even more embarrassed for a moment, and although Lady Tsunade wasn't angry, her words were becoming more and more outrageous.
But the other Konoha jonin looked at Shizune calmly. They could naturally see Lady Tsunade's attitude towards Shizune, and many of them showed envy.
"Tsunade-sama, Lord Ya led the elite troops to intercept the Kumo Ninja, the Third Raikage personally led 300 elite Kumo Ninja to cover the rear, the rest of the Kumo Ninja have already broken out..."
A Konoha ninja in front hurried back to report the battle situation. At the same time, Tsunade and his group were passing through the dense jungle.
Amid the rustling sound of leaves, countless Konoha ninjas flashed out from the forest, and what came into view was the canyon in the distance where thunder was flashing.
"This! What kind of power is this!"
"It actually caused the thunder of nature..."
Countless Konoha ninjas were looking at the scene in the distance in shock. Even though they were so far away, they could still feel the pressure from the huge chakra.
Lightning Release: Kirin
The roar of thunder above the canyon transformed into a giant thunder beast. With a roar of thunder, it instantly illuminated the sky and the earth, making countless ninjas unable to open their eyes.
Immediately afterwards, the explosion of thunder and the loud noise echoed in the valley.
As the thunder dissipated, countless Konoha ninjas around looked at this natural force from heaven and earth in shock.
Many Konoha ninjas were swallowing in shock.
"This! Is this really a power that a ninja can master?!"
"This power should have surpassed Shadow!"
The Third Raikage was known as the strongest Kage among the five major ninja villages, but today they witnessed the end of a battle with their own eyes.
“Hahahaha…it’s actually Lightning Escape!”
The next moment, the crazy laughter of the Third Raikage was heard from the huge pit, which shocked countless Konoha ninjas. He was actually still alive!
The Third Raikage in the deep pit was covered in blood. After enduring this attack of thunder, he was almost exhausted.
At this time, Uchiha Ye, who was standing high above the valley, also showed a solemn expression and shouted domineeringly:
"You are still alive, Third Raikage. I, Uchiha Ye, recognize your strength. In terms of lightning escape, among all the ninjas I have fought, no one is better than you!"
At this time, Uchiha Ye was panting heavily, and even he needed to fight with all his strength to the Third Raikage who was fighting to the death.
"Haha, Uchiha Ye! In the name of the Third Raikage Ai, I am willing to call you the strongest ninja in Lightning Release!"
Similarly, the Third Raikage standing in the deep pit grinned, and the next moment he burst out the last chakra in his body. "But I, the Third Raikage, have not lost yet! For the Cloud Ninja! For the Land of Lightning!"
The Third Raikage Ai roared wildly as thunder flashed wildly around him. His body, which had already been severely overdrawn, continued to bleed from the pores, and fragments of his internal organs were spewing out of his mouth, but all this did not stop him.
Hell's Thrust·One Hand
Immortal Technique: Lightning Release: Raikiri
The lightning illuminated the night sky, and countless Konoha ninjas and the reinforcements that had just arrived happened to witness the showdown of the strongest lightning escape techniques.
Ipponkante VS Raikiri!
"Uchiha Ye!"
The Third Raikage's angry roar was accompanied by flashes of thunder in the sky, as if reflecting the Raikage's loneliness.
The lightning illuminated the sky and the earth, allowing countless Konoha ninjas to witness the attack with their own eyes.
puff!
With blood splattering everywhere, Raikiri once again cut off the thunder from the Land of Lightning.
In the heavy rain, as a figure fell to the ground with a plop, another figure stood in front and behind the defeated figure, and the winner was decided.
"I'll leave Ai... Yunyin... to you..."
Lying on the cold ground, his body already burned to a crisp by the Thunder Release Kirin, the Third Raikage muttered hoarsely.
The chakra in his body that represents the fire of life has been extinguished, and now he is only relying on his last bit of will.
Uchiha Ye was panting heavily, looking at his opponent who had lost his life force, and he could not help but sigh: "What an admirable opponent."
The raindrops falling on his body evaporated in an instant. One can imagine how fierce the previous battle was. Even though he had lost his life, he still emitted a high temperature.
"Win...win..."
The Konoha ninjas in the distance were watching the scene in shock. You know, the Third Raikage brought the greatest shame to their Konoha.
The Third Hokage who defeated them in one battle was also because this Third Raikage shocked the ninja world and started the Third War.
As a result, the three world wars started because of the third Raikage, and finally the three world wars slowly came to an end with the demise of the third Raikage.
It seems like a fateful agreement.
"Really won!"
"The Third Raikage who defeated the Third Hokage was actually killed!"
Countless Konoha ninjas looked at this scene in shock. Even after seeing the corpse of the Third Raikage with their own eyes, countless ninjas were filled with disbelief.
It was really because the Third Raikage was too famous in the ninja world, and he became famous by stepping on Konoha.
He defeated the Third Hokage in one battle and pulled Konoha down from the altar of the strongest in the ninja world. However, he died on the battlefield and was killed by Konoha themselves.
At this time, as the Qilin of Thunder consumed the energy of the rain clouds, the heavy rain became visibly smaller, and then the black clouds gradually dissipated with the sky above the canyon as the center.
A ray of golden sunlight appeared in the sky, shining just above the canyon and enveloping Uchiha Ye.
In the sunlight, Uchiha Ye's figure radiated golden light. He slowly raised his head with the swastika Mangekyō Sharingan representing the will of fire in his eyes, and looked around at the Konoha ninjas.
The next moment, Uchiha Ye took a deep breath, slowly stretched out his arms, and shouted to everyone:
"Wan Sheng!"
The next moment in the canyon, with the victory over the Cloud Ninja and the slashing of the strongest Thunder, countless Konoha Ninjas burst into cheers and roared excitedly.
"Wan Sheng!"
"we won!"
"The war is about to end! The Mist and Sand Ninjas have already negotiated peace. What else can the Cloud Ninjas use to fight us in Konoha!"
"Haha, I can finally go home!"
The excited cheers of countless Konoha ninjas echoed over the canyon; they had been waiting for this moment for too long.
At the same time, the Third World War also accumulated too much anger and frustration.
They are the strongest Konoha ninjas and have finally regained the glory that belongs to them!
The sacrifice of the Third Raikage and three hundred elite Cloud Ninjas gave the Fourth Raikage and thousands of his companions time to break out.
When the battle was over, the Fourth Raikage had led the Cloud Ninjas out of the pursuit range and returned directly to the Land of Lightning from the sea.
……
Konoha.
"Sarutobi, the Uchiha are in great danger. The Third Raikage was killed. Here's the report from the front line!"
Danzo Shimura pushed open the door of the Hokage's office with an unsightly look on his face and placed the information directly on the Hokage's desk.
The Root knew about it, so how could he, the Third Hokage, not know it? Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his head and handed a piece of information to Danzo with a serious expression.
"Danzo, this is the detailed information of the battle. It can be said that the Third Raikage was killed head-on by Uchiha Ye."
In terms of the details of the intelligence, the Third Hokage obtained much more details than Danzo.
But the more details he found out, the more gloomy and terrifying Shimura Danzo's face became.
"Huruzen, Uchiha Ya's current strength is far beyond imagination. We must not allow it to develop. Although the intelligence shows that his pair of Mangekyō are almost blind, even without the Mangekyō, this person is a Third-Kage Raikage!"
Danzo Shimura said with a serious expression, he and the Third Raikage had personally experienced the strength of the Third Raikage.
Regarding Danzo's concerns, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen took a deep breath, then exhaled a circle of smoke and said hoarsely:
"The Third Raikage of the Kumogakure died in battle. Danzo arranged for someone to spread the news. This was a glorious victory gained by the sacrifices of countless Konoha ninjas. The war is about to end.
At the same time, I have arranged for envoys to negotiate with the Cloud Ninja and the Rock Ninja..."
As Sarutobi Hiruzen's black glove, how could Danzo Shimura not realize that these words were meant to exaggerate the glorious deeds of Konoha's sacrificed ninja heroes and thus cover up Uchiha Ya's brilliance.
"I understand, but we can't just ignore this Uchiha!"
Shimura Danzo raised his head with a cold look in his eyes and said in a deep voice:
"Huruzen, the Uchiha clan leader has not been feeling well recently. I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on for a few more days. Uchiha Fugaku is on his way to support Mount Kikyo right now. If at this time..."
The murderous intent flashing in Shimura Danzo's eyes made Sarutobi Hiruzen frown and reveal a hint of worry.
"Huruzen, this is not the time to hesitate. To get rid of Uchiha Fugaku, we don't need to frame Uchiha Ya, we just need to pretend that it was done by the Kumo ninja.
Didn't Uchiha Ye just kill the Third Raikage? It's normal for the Cloud Ninja to take revenge. Once the son of the former clan leader is killed by the Cloud Ninja, hehe!"
Shimura Danzo sneered, no one understood the character of the Uchiha clan better than him.
By then, the entire Uchiha clan will be angry and want to retaliate, but now the war has finally seen the dawn of an end. Do you, the Uchiha clan, want to stir up trouble?
At that time, the Uchiha clan will stand on the opposite side of Konoha, and even on the opposite side of the ninja world.
It is hard to deny and attack at the same time, but we have to say that Shimura Danzo's methods were ruthless.
"Danzo, Uchiha is also our ally in Konoha!"
Finally, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen lowered his voice and slammed the table, but Danzo Shimura smiled.
He already understands.
Thank you for your support
