The meteorite turns into fragments as it falls, and the ninja alliance is filled with despair.
"This! Is this the power of a god?"
The massive shadow doesn't disappear. In the sky, another large meteorite, dragging its tail, falls.
"How will you intercept the second one?"
Uchiha Yoru reveals a mocking smile, "You don't have as much time with this one as the first."
With a thunderous roar, the second meteorite, dragging its tail, follows closely behind. The ninja alliance now has little time to launch their jutsu.
"Don't give up!"
Earth Release: Super Light-Weight Rock Technique
Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique
Hell Stab: One Finger
As the five Kage roar in anger, the tens of thousands of ninjas in the alliance erupt in a furious roar, facing the impending meteorite and unleashing jutsu in an attempt to destroy the meteorite threatening their existence.
Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique
Lightning Release: Gratitude Wave
…
In an instant, tens of thousands of various ninja techniques struck from the other side, and under the carpet bombing, the meteorite directly shattered.
"Ninja Alliance, do not give up!"
It was the distant Ninja Alliance, where the Fourth Raikage A roared, leading the many ninja legions to launch an attack.
In a moment, the meteorite shattered a lot, but due to lack of time, it still heavily smashed down, along with countless fragments of the meteorite falling down like cannonballs.
The land seemed to have been carpet-bombed, with booming sounds everywhere.
The gust of wind blew over the sand, revealing the face of the battlefield, and at this moment, the smile on Uchiha Yoru's face gradually turned into a cold light.
"Tailed Beast Mode, is this your choice? To do as you please time and time again!"
A cold and angry voice spread across the battlefield, and as the true face of the battlefield was revealed, the Konoha side showed angry looks.
"Is this your choice!" Kakashi slowly revealed his Sharingan in his left eye, filled with cold killing intent.
Jiraiya couldn't help but show a complex expression, ultimately sighing deeply.
"Naruto!"
Many ninjas in Konoha showed displeased expressions.
After the sandstorm, ninjas under the meteorite appeared wearing fox-like red Tailed Beast, and a blond young man appeared on the side of the Ninja Alliance, now looking steadfastly at Uchiha Yoru.
"Stop this! War only brings hatred! This is not peace at all!"
Uzumaki Naruto shouted firmly, but Uchiha Yoru revealed a mocking cold smile, "It seems I have been too indulgent with you over the years, Uzumaki Naruto! You would even turn against us in battle."
However, at this moment, Naruto looked around boldly and shouted solemnly, "Why must we have war, isn't peace better?"
"Such slaughter only breeds hatred... I am willing to be a bridge between both sides, let's put down the war!"
Looking at the bold Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Yoru revealed a mocking smile, while in the distance, Kakashi's voice sounded.
"Naruto!"
Naruto looked somewhat imploringly at the Konoha side, hoping someone would understand him, but what met him was the incredible cold gaze of his teacher, Kakashi.
"It's not too late to turn back now!"
Under Kakashi's cold voice, Jiraiya remained silent, well aware of Naruto's will. Years of companionship had fostered deep emotions.
If both sides were evenly matched, he would definitely stand with Naruto. But now that they held the advantage, unifying the ninja world seemed within reach.
As for whether Uchiha Yoru's path was correct, Jiraiya could only give a wry smile, at least in the era of the famous ninja villages and ruling, wars never ceased, and no one knew what peace really looked like, only through constant failed attempts could there be success.
"Kakashi!" Jiraiya hesitated and sighed at Kakashi, finally shaking his head and saying, "Forget it."
Eventually, Jiraiya fell silent, choosing to give up on Naruto, yet he too pursued peace, and Naruto's kind of peaceful coexistence was clearly akin to the situation of the First Hokage.
This peace is temporary and false.
In contrast, after Uchiha Yoru unifies the ninja world, concentrating all power in the most fertile Land of Fire, even after a century, the disturbances in the ninja world are minor.
After all, the strongest power resides in the Land of Fire, which can easily suppress any disturbances.
Although this can't be considered true peace, he can see that it's much better than the situation where ninja villages stand independently.
There are disadvantages, namely the unification wars that will inevitably lead to rivers of blood and accumulate deep hatred, which is why Uchiha Yoru insists on early unification.
Through the efforts of three generations over a century, the hatred will fade with time.
"Teacher Kakashi!"
Looking at the familiar faces in the distance of Konoha, Uzumaki Naruto's face showed a determined expression.
"Teacher, even if you don't understand, I must proceed. This war, for the so-called unified peace, will lead to rivers of blood and over a hundred thousand ninja casualties."
"But as long as both sides are willing to shake hands and make peace, just as the First Hokage did, under the power of Lord Uchiha Yoru, the world of ninjas will still be at peace. During this time, we can exert all our efforts to seek peace and mutual understanding..."
Amid these thoughts, Naruto still can't bear to watch the sacrifice of over a hundred thousand ninjas.
"Naruto, is this the peace you seek?"
At this moment, Kakashi showed a look of disappointment. Naruto's idea of peace still lives within the confines of ninja world planning and has never stepped out.
Uzumaki Naruto believes he is right; stopping the war would reduce tens of thousands of casualties, and with the power of Konoha, they can suppress peace throughout the ninja world.
"Why must so many be killed, breeding so much hatred?"
Earth Release: Super Light-Heavy Rock Technique
Just then, the First and Second Tsuchikage, each riding on the three Raikage, with the Second Tsuchikage even using a split technique to create another of himself.
The three Tsuchikage rode on the first, second, and third Raikage, directly deploying the Earth Release: Super Light-Heavy Rock Technique.
In an instant, the three Raikage, with full firepower, launched their strongest offensive ninjutsu.
Hell Stab: One-Finger Assault
Hell Stab: Two-Finger Assault
The three Raikage, with the first and third being the strongest, turned into lightning and appeared in front of Susanoo, launching their most powerful strikes.
And then, the three Tsuchikage riding on the Raikage roared, "Earth Release: Super-Weighted Rock Technique!"
Instantly, the three Raikage's power increased manifold. Before Uchiha Yoru could react, Susanoo's bones shattered.
With a thunderous crash, the black Susanoo crumbled, and at that moment, the ninjas on both sides of the battlefield were shocked to see the scene. The three Raikage's strongest attacks pierced the chest of Uchiha Yoru, known as the God of the Ninja World.
Three thick palms, like sharp kunai, penetrated his chest. At that moment, Uchiha Yoru showed an incredulous expression, looking down at the wound in his chest, muttering to himself, "To break through Susanoo..."
"This is the power of the Five Kage!"
The Raikage and Tsuchikage shouted excitedly, venting the existence of their power.
"No!"
"Damn! Kill!"
The sudden turn of events left Naruto in disbelief. Shocked, he roared, "I said stop the war! Didn't you hear me?"
With the death of Uchiha Yoru, the war would spiral out of control, something even the usually thick-headed Naruto realized, leading him to angrily roar out his frustration.
However, at that moment, Uchiha Yoru's face gradually broke into a smile, admiring the coordination that had managed to break his Susanoo. As he spoke, his body began to transform into wood, prompting the Third Raikage to shout in surprise and anger, "It's a wood clone!"
As Uchiha Yoru's body turned to wood, starting from his feet, the expressions of the Raikage and the Tsuchikage turned extremely ugly, while Konoha ninjas began cheering in the distance.
"Naruto!"
The voice came from above, making everyone realize that Uchiha Yoru had been using a wood clone from the start and had never left his position on the rock.
Uchiha Yoru emerged, his eyes swirling with the crimson of the Sharingan, focusing on all the ninjas before his gaze settled on Naruto.
"From this moment, Naruto is declared a Class S rogue ninja of Konoha, and all Konoha ninjas are authorized to execute him and recover the Nine-Tails!"
Rogue Ninja!
Hearing this, Naruto was stunned, trembling at the cold and angry stares from the Konoha ninjas. He had anticipated the consequences of his actions, but the reality was still painfully hard to accept.
"Namikaze Minato, the Fourth Hokage, do you have any objections to my order?"
After declaring Naruto a rogue ninja, Uchiha Yoru calmly spoke these words. As footsteps sounded, everyone noticed two coffins behind them. A golden-haired man in a God robe and a red-haired woman emerged, bringing tears to Naruto's eyes.
"Father, Mother!"
The couple was the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato and Kushina Kushina.
At that moment, looking at their son, Minato took a deep breath and hoarsely replied, "No objections!"
"Minato!" Kushina, unable to bear seeing her son become a rogue ninja, grasped her husband's arm.
With Minato's admission, Naruto's face turned pale, his determination seeming foolish in the face of the Konoha's cold stares.
Inside, Naruto was screaming, questioning if this path was worth the sacrifices made for a distant peace.
Yet another voice told him to adhere to his ninja way, in a world rife with tragedy. War only breeds hatred, and only mutual understanding can lead to peace.
"Naruto!" In a hoarse shout, Minato looked at his despondent son, unable to bear it, and pointed towards the Konoha.
"Naruto, look at the situation. War is inevitable, between the Konoha and other villages. Your friends, comrades, and teammates are all in Konoha. For the sake of an unrelated ninja alliance, is it worth it?"
Minato became famous in the Third Ninja War, with his hands stained with the blood of many enemy ninjas. He longed for peace but loved Konoha even more.
Minato was a true Hokage who loved only his Village, just like the other Kage.
"Then I'll give you and your spouse a chance. Capture the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, extract the Nine-Tails, and I'll allow you to keep a portion of the Nine-Tails' chakra."
Uchiha Yoru said coldly to the Fourth Hokage and his wife. Essentially, as long as they captured Naruto, they could keep some of the Nine-Tails' chakra, ensuring Naruto wouldn't die.
However, Naruto's actions today have doomed him to spend his life in prison.
"Thank you, thank you."
Upon hearing this, Kushina was overjoyed with gratitude, while Minato was filled with complex emotions, grateful to Uchiha Yoru.
At that moment, Uchiha Yoru looked at Naruto, his lips curling into a mocking smile, realizing the contingency plan was needed.
Originally, Uchiha Sasuke went to capture the Daimyos and secretly reported that something was off with Naruto.
Unexpectedly, Naruto, the most unpredictable ninja, turned out to be truly surprising and outrageous.
All of this was witnessed by the Fourth Hokage and his wife. The Fourth Great Ninja War was inevitable, and among all the villages, Minato unwaveringly chose his own.
"Now it's your turn!"
At that moment, Uchiha Yoru revealed a cruel smile, while Naruto was entangled by the Fourth Hokage and his wife.
Wood Release: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees
Uchiha Yoru suddenly clapped his hands, and the earth trembled as terrifying vines emerged.
Meanwhile, Uchiha Obito, watching from afar, said, "Madara, we can't just watch anymore. If this continues, it won't cause significant damage to the village."
Uchiha Madara nodded, agreeing to start the battle.
Wood Release: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees
Uchiha Madara also went all out, using the same Wood Release technique. The earth trembled, and the two forces' Wood Release techniques clashed.
Uchiha Obito also formed hand seals, and his right eye's Sharingan rapidly spun.
Fire Release: Wind Style - Flame Dance
With a spatial twist and a vortex-shaped storm, Obito unleashed a terrifying serpent of fire. The vortex storm and the rotating fire serpent combined into a massive fire technique aimed at the distant Konoha Forces.
Meanwhile, hidden reanimations began to emerge at their ambush spots, attacking the Konoha ninja army.
At that moment, both sides' ninjas erupted in roars, with the Allied Shinobi Forces desperately attacking the Konoha side. As long as they were entangled, Uchiha Yoru, a terrifying level ninja, wouldn't dare to act recklessly.
"Oh no, Uchiha Madara intends to exhaust both sides."
The reanimated Hashirama exclaimed. At this point, no one was fooled.
But were Madara and Obito's plans transparent? To fight or not? If they fought, they'd stand with the Allied Forces. If not, the current Ninja Allied Forces were no match for the enemy. While the general forces might hold, the gap in top-tier power was significant.
Therefore, despite knowing their plan, the Tsuchikage Onoki and the Fourth Raikage A had no choice but to launch an attack.
Do Uchiha Madara and Obito strong? Indeed, but Uchiha Yoru on the other side is also not to be underestimated. The outcome might not just be mutual destruction, but possibly a three-way devastation.
