Kankuro was rushing to the enemy's general direction along with his squad. The alliance doesn't have much idea of the enemy's movement due to the Infiltration and Reconnaissance Party being wiped out and no report was made. So kankuro's squad was marching towards enemy territory with great vigilance from any ambush of the enemy. And just like they anticipated they were indeed attacked by the enemy however the way of the attack came in a bizarre way as a large number of grasshoppers made of clay were going their way. Only kankuro was aware how the jutsu works since it was the very jutsu that defeated Gaara resulting in him getting captured. The grasshoppers made their into every ally and exploded as Deidara lifted his hands with a sign. "Art is always, a blast" Deidara was smirked as he detonated them. Boom.! A simultaneous explosion occured as if only one bomb went off.
Kankuro was unable to give any warning signals to his squad resulting to most of them dying due to the explosion and it was a surprise attack from the enemy. Using his chakra strings, he was able to save only two members namely omoi and zaji. The rest were blasted to pieces by the explosion of deidara's jutsu with only 2 survivors sustaining injuries from the explosion and was able to avoid death. One was from the Iwagakure since he also have a bit of an information about deidara and the other was a byakugan user from konoha who was able to see through the jutsu when they were about to explode but certainly didn't see the enemy's attack coming. Kankuro ordered omoi and zaji to carry the injured as they made their retreat. An irony for the Surprise attack division to be surprise attacked by the enemies.
Shinobi alliance base
"Sir! We need to deploy the 3rd division immediately to aide the surprise attack division. They only have 5 members left, two of them are injured.! They are currently retreating and being pursued by the enemy." Suggested Shikaku as he informed A
A nodded to shikaku as Inoichi relayed the command to the 3rd division commander Mifune and Back-up division Commander Kuro. To which they immediately gathered the division as they prepared to teleport to the battlefield.
Frontline
Kankuro was busy repelling attacks from the enemy using his puppet sasori while retreating from 2 zombie akatsuki members and 2 other zombie who were also flying on a large bird. Deidara's ride was made out of clay while the other seem like a drawing or painting in ink come to life. It was the brothers Sai and Shin both became an edo tensei of Orochimaru. Deidara created another set of explosives in the form pigeons while Sai drew snakes and it all came off his scroll and came to life slithering fast towards kankuro and the rest. Sasori wasn't able to control any corpses since deidara exploded the rest afterwards kankuro and the rest immediately retreated. Shin was staying still while looking at sai's back whom he considers his little brother.
As the pigeons were coming closer towards the retreating surprise attack division chakra blades flew towards them cutting the pigeons in half and they exploded in the air while the snakes were also disposed of by the rest the group that has been teleported by kuro.
"Well Mifune san. I've done my job. Good luck to you." Kuro disappeared as soon as he arrived with the rest of the 3rd division. Mifune could only look at the empty space where kuro stood just a second ago. Sasori who also saw him was looking at the same space.
Shin lept from sai's bird directly to the 3rd division's location. Boom!!! Shin exploded and taken out a number of shinobi from the 3rd division. Sasori has already started controlling 2 bodies of shinobi from that explosion to attack the rest of the 3rd division.
Sai summoned lions made of ink while deidara kept on throwing explosives in the form of small birds like homing missiles.
Mifune ordered the sealing squad to take care of shin since his body was still recovering from the explosion he did. Kankuro was using his sasori puppet to counter the 2 shinobi controlled by zombie sasori. He was able to cut the chakra strings that sasori used with the windmill blades on sasori puppet's back. Then kankuro summoned the father and mother puppet that hugs the sasori puppet making sasori zombie have a sudden reaction. Light covered sasori as he said to kankuro "I entrust them to you" to which kankuro nodded to him.
Deidara screamed at this "Sasori my man!!! How could you!!!" He then performed the same action he did when he was confronted by team kakashi years ago. A handful of Clay was fed to a mouth by his chest and he starts bloating. The konoha shinobi who was injured earlier could clearly see the amount of chakra gathering inside the bloating deidara through his byakugan. Kankuro who read the report about deidara's earlier attempt when Gaara was being rescued immediately know what's going to happen so he commanded in a hurried voice "Everyone who can use earth style create a very thick wall now!!! A big explosion is going to happen hurry!!! "
"Do it and make more over it!!!" Mifune seconded while still busy slicing off sai's ink lions.
Earth walls was immediately errected over each other in front of them as deidara's bloating was reaching it's limit.
BOOM!!!
A very bright light pierced the skies and scarred the earth. The explosion was not diverted by a kamui so it was able to show it's full potential eliminating more than half of the 3rd division.
Bleeding mifune gritted his teeth and commanded the remaining survivors. "Immediately search for the enemy's location. They must be recovering right now. Seize the moment to seal them.!"
"Byakugan!!! i've located them. You're correct commander, they are still recovering.!" the konoha shinobi immediately guided the remaining sealing squad where the enemy's are.
"Mifune dono please rest and wait a bit. Kuro dono will be there shortly to bring you guys to the Medical post to recover" mifune sits down tiredly and sighed. "We're waiting inoichi dono"
The war has just began but the alliance already have a lot of casualties while the akatsuki only lost 4 zombie corpses.
Coast battlefield
A volcano exploded and a large number of white zetsu poured out literally and started marching towards the 1st division who were waiting by the coast. Zombie akatsuki members was mixed with the white zetsus namely Kakuzu, Kisame, Conan and Nagato. As the akatsuki's advance was nearing the alliance they increased the speed of their march until finally they were running. The alliance didn't wait for them anymore and engaged them.
Blood immediately painted the field and even the sea coming from both shinobi and zetsu alike. Kakuzu didn't waste anytime to get hearts for his limbs as 4 black monster-like creatures with masks immediately appeared on the battlefield. Each throwing 4 elements of air,fire,lightning and water. Shinobi alliance death count kept increasing in every seconds that passed. Shikamaru, Ino and chouji immediately engaged him along with asuma as more and more shinobi dies in front of them. They were able to hold him back a little due to their Ino-shika-cho combination with asuma's assistance protecting them from any zetsu that interferes but they could not immediately win against him. And that's only him excluding the 4 black creatures who were still rampaging in the battlefield and taking shonibi's lives.
'If kuro were here he'd be able to summon those giant birds of his and wipe these things out in a matter of seconds sigh what a drag' were shikamaru's thoughts as they try to take kakuzu down.
Kisame unleashed his Water Prison Shark Dance Technique entrapping a large number of the 1st division members. He followed it with A Thousand Feeding Sharks which is the stronger version of Five Feeding Sharks which feed on the shinobi inside the large dome of water prison.
Conan was flying up as papers in the shape of shuriken were dancing around her and rained down on the shinobi alliance as it took a lot of lives, tears could be seen flowing out of her eyes as she saw a certain man doing the same taking out lives of the 1st division members. Nagato's hair were white and turns red as he absorbs chakra from one of the shinobi member. He then proceeds to shoot missiles using another hand that portruded from his shoulder that appears to be robotic while using universal pull and absorbs another ninja's chakra. As more and more shinobi death counts increases nagato was able to form his six path corpses including himself.
Darui faced kisame and used black panther. Black lightning in the form of a panther dragged kisame from the large dome of water. Kisame being electrified took damage and the large water prison broke. But by the time it broke it was already dyed with blood from the earlier victims. Kisame wanted to retaliate however darui was faster with a follow up chop using his knife like sword beheading kisame immediately who was recovering from the earlier attack.
Akatsuki Base
"I can feel the nine-tails and 8 tails chakra coming to the battlefield." Tobi said as he stand up facing the direction where he felt them.
"Orochimaru, I will intercept them and capture the remaining tailed beast. I will leave the rest of the battlefield in your hands along with the right to command the remaining white zetsu that we are hiding underground" he looked at orochimaru who licked his own face before replying.
"Rest assured. You will have your alone time with the 2 jinchuuriki, I will take care of the rest of them so they won't be able to reach you" 100,000 white zetsu is a lot. They have used more than half of it to face the 1st division which is about 70,000. They have also hidden 20,000 underground near the Coast and Forest battlefield evenly. The remaining 10,000 were added to the unit they sent in the Forest battlefield.
Tobi went out and brought his own version of six paths using the past jinchuuriki namely Yugito Nii, Yagura, Roshi, han, Utakata, and Fuu respectively. Gaara was dead when the ichibi was extracted from him but was revived immediately by Granny Chiyo in exchange for her own life. With Tobi in front of them the past Jinchuurikis were jumping from trees to trees to intercept the trio Uzumaki Naruto, Killer Bee and Uchiha Sasuke.
Shinobi Alliance
"Send in 5 squadrons of the Back up Division to assist on the remaining akatsuki members! Make sure that 3 squadrons assists the ones facing those with the rinnegan" commanded A who was just briefed of information about the rinnegan and Nagato who attacked konoha. To which the other kage had a hard time believing before when tsunade told them about it during the summit.
"I think it would be best to send in the Back up division's commander since he knows a lot of information about those akatsuki members. Also he was the one who defeated most of them by himself before. That's how he got his nickname (RedFlash) afterall" advised Jiraiya by the side with tsunade support as she also nods and looks at A.
"Fine. Call in the back up division Commander" A agreed and commanded kuro to assist the first division using only 5 squads from his division and as soon as the previous akatsuki members were taken down he is to go to the medical post if he needs medical attention if not immediately return to base to be able to provide back up to the rest of the divisions on other battlefields.
Forest battlefield
Kakashi's division was facing an enemy unit consisting of mainly edo tensei shinobi both masters and ordinary alike with 10,000 white zetsu. The stronger zombies immediately rampaged taking the lives of the shinobi alliance members. Hanzo using his poison fog, kimimaro using his bloodline limit, and chiyo controling the alliance members bodies like puppets against them.
Kakashi himself was occupied with the 7 swordsmen of the mist but he has his eternal rival with him as both of them gave the 7 swordsmen their all. Haku was immediately taken down by kakashi using raikiri on zabusa. The unplayed scene on the land of waves because of kuro was still fulfilled in the battlefield as haku took raikiri in the place of zabusa. Haku was immediately sealed as zabusa regrouped with the rest of the swordsmen of the mist. An inevitable clash will once again commence between them.
Gai's students were near them as they took care of the white zetsus and common ninja zombie easily and sealing the defeated corpses. They are focusing mainly on the small fries first so they can all take care of the stronger one later on together as their strategy.
Dessert Battlefield
A loud battle cry could be heard in the dessert as the 4th division were running towards the enemy which also were running towards them. As soon as both side clashed against each other blood of both sides which is came from both living ninjas were painted on the sand below them. Weapons and Jutsus were unleashed one after the other against each other and both shinobi from each side dies. The akatsuki's side consist of real people from the Hidden sound village and human experiments of Orochimaru. The akatsuki has an edge at the begining of the battle as the human experiments transformed to their respective monster forms. However the alliance was able to adapt quickly by sending more numbers at those human experiments and simply even out the normal ninjas from the sound. Though this would seem they are underestimating the sound ninjas but it was really effective as the battle goes on.
The previous kages which were edo tensei summoned by orochimaru are only standing by the side observing the fight.
"This war, I don't recognise their enemy but I can see our descendants fighting on the same side this time." says the former Mizukage Gengetsu Hozuki
"That brat Ohnoki is still alive but was able to be part of them. This is really a surprise to me" it was Mu who spoke this time.
"Gaara..." Rasa only mumbled his son's name while also looking at him from a far distance
"Standing here with all of you means their enemy must be very capable to be able to summon us all together back to the world of the living" commented the 3rd raikage.
"It must be that Orochimaru from my village who summoned us, he did the same thing before when he summoned me and my brother to attack konoha. Unfortunately, it seems that he already has complete control over us since even though I was the one to create this jutsu. I can't break his control over me" replied Tobirama.
The other Kage were shocked to know this. Using Tobirama Senju to attack his own village is a big thing however even as far as using the God of shinobi himself was outrageous. They're all wondering as to how did konoha survived that seeing there were still some konoha ninja in the crowd of the shinobi alliance. As if Tobirama could read their thoughts he answered.
"That day when my brother and I were first summoned, this technique was still not perfect like today where we can speak. There was a brilliant young man who helped my student who was the Hokage at that time." Hearing him praise the younger generation of konoha who didn't just assisted the Hokage but helped made other kages envious. Konoha really seemed to be a cradle of geniuses. Ironically however the enemy of the whole five great villages also comes from konoha.
In the distance completely opposite to them Gaara and Ohnoki was also observing the battle but Gaara was giving out commands as he's the one leading them.
Medical Post
Mifune's 3rd division with the remaining surprise attack division members were teleported earlier by Kuro and are now recuperating. From a distance an injured ally who was supported by another ally could be seen slowly walking towards the medical camp.
Meanwhile naruto, bee and sasuke were preparing to face the incoming enemy which naruto himself has seensed from a very far away distance. Soon enough even Bee was able to detect them but it wasn't the one Naruto sensed. As the figures landed in front of them Naruto recognized tsunade and calls her granny but Bee blushed as he stammered calling his brother.
"No! B-bro.. B-bra.."
"Bee!!! How dare you stare at the Hokage's chest when i'm standing right in front of you! You were supposed to stay at that island.!" A just received the report about them escaping from the barrier team that was tasked to hold them in that island so they can be safe while the war was going on. Who would have thought that the ones they are trying to protect and the main reason for this war are going to join the battle themselves. Bee however rapped his way out of it explaining that he is only helping naruto and was not the one to plan and join the war.
"Sasuke did you forget your mission? I'm pretty sure it includes making sure naruto isn't aware of the war and holding him down safe there. what's going on?" Tsunade asked from A's side.
"I'm sorry tsunade-sama. Naruto was able to know the truth himself. He already knows how to control the kyuubi's chakra afterall. Once he was able to do it, he sensed everything that's going on. I'm not enough to hold him down at the moment" explains sasuke.
"Granny. I now know who my parents were. And as someone who inherited their dreams. I will top this war. I can't stand it that people are dying for me! please let me go!"
"Enough!!!" A was enraged activated his lightning armor "We're here to stop you. Our allies are dying to protect you both but they are doing so the world won't end. Bee, you're important to me so I will definitely stop you here" A was serious on stopping them.
'If you won't listen then I'll just avoid confronting you'
"Uncle bee, sasuke we're going!" Sasuke nodded but Bee warned them about his brother's speed in rap style ofcourse.
[AN: not a rapper so pardon me xD]
"Naruto i'm sorry. But this is a direct order from the shinobi alliance." explained tsunade. But that says more than what she said. Saying that her being there stopping him was an order given but not what she wants and there's nothing she can do about it.
"I understand your situation Granny. Sasuke " Naruto looked at sasuke and he received a nod.
The War continues and so is the confrontation between the 2 kage and Naruto's group. Meanwhile kuro will soon to enter the battle as he is currently facing his division members. He's going to enter the battlefield with the whole back up division since there were factors that changed in the coast battlefield that they are going to. The forest and dessert battlefields does not seem to need back ups any moment soon.
