Konoha: Start with omniscience and omnipotence

Chapter 169 [168] Strategic Retreat

However, before Sarutobi Hiruzen could ask where the two people in front of him came from, he saw that Juuzou Juzo had already moved.

"laugh--"

He suddenly raised the [True Name Well] in his hand above his head, the hot blade glowing with fiery red lines.

As it passed through the air, a puff of white smoke could be vaguely seen.

That's a sign that chakra has been condensed to its limit.

"out!"

Suddenly, Loquat Juzo slashed his blade in the direction of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Rumble--"

Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly opened his eyes wide.

I saw the five-escape bomb that could match an entire ninjutsu coalition exploded from Loquat Juzo's short sword and advanced in his direction. The power in front of me was no less powerful than the escape technique he used.

This is especially true for leaders like Sarutobi Hiruzen who sit in the position of Hokage.

The Third Hokage himself stood on one side.

The older Loquat Juuzang appeared more steady and said in a calm voice:

"My master asked us to bring you a message."

"When did that guy start colluding with you and betraying Konoha?"

How to fight this?

The moment he thought of this, Loquat Juzo immediately made a decision in his heart and shouted loudly.

Almost at the moment Sarutobi Hiruzen broke through the iron sand and stood still due to the paralysis of his legs, Juzo Hagi who seized the opportunity suddenly jumped up.

Accompanied by a tremor underfoot, doors with a total height of over a hundred meters, made of an unknown metal material, and with Shura patterns engraved on the surface, rose rapidly, and the metal door knockers jingled, blocking the entire field of view between the two parties.

.

'What's this.'

Just as he was thinking this, he touched his waist with his palm and struck lightly, but he saw that Sarutobi Hiruzen did not catch up with him, but pointed at him with the black ax and ordered:

Suddenly, a white shock wave like a wave suddenly exploded under Sarutobi Hiruzen's feet, and the smoke and dust behind him exploded. The super high reaction force brought about a driving force as strong as a wild donkey. The seemingly thin body was like

Shot out like a cannonball.

'Terrible cutting power.'

Loquat Juuzang and Xie stood there as if they were stunned.

It seems that only one collision is enough to cut off the opponent.

Xie suddenly snapped his fingers, using the pain to pull himself out of the shocked state, then quickly formed a seal with one hand and slapped it on the ground.

"Is it the beginning?"

In the low and mute explanation of the first words, Juzo Juzo and Koko could only see the Zanpakutō in Hiruzen Sarutobi's hand, peeling off the skin like a charcoal fire, and the vague black sparks burned, revealing that

The whole body is old, like a decaying battle ax corroded by some black substance.

Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his head and looked at the two people in front of him:

"I'll ask again."

"Initial understanding is not something unique to you."

In an instant, Sarutobi Hiruzen narrowed his eyes slightly.

Seeing this scene, Loquat Juuzang and Xie's pupils shrank.

"Magnetic Escape·Iron Current Wall!"

Almost killed him?

What a terrifying power this is!

However, what is in front of me is

"Squeak——"

Under this crushing pressure,

Sarutobi Hiruzen lowered his eyes slightly and chanted in a low voice: "Darkness abounds, it is neither day nor night, when sacrifices to the dead are all reduced to ashes."

The power has just been exhausted.

While swinging the sword to strike, you can also see the flame composed of chakra being swallowed and absorbed by the [True Name Well], and the blade of the sword faintly glows with red.

The three sounds almost merged into one.

"You two, are you ready to die?"

"Where did the shallow blow in my hand come from!"

"call--"

The spreading poisonous mist was like some kind of living thing, being guided by the wind and iron sand and gathering in the direction of Sarutobi Hiruzen, seeming to wrap his whole body around the center.

"Epidemic!"

The five-escape large-volume bombs advanced with a roar.

Then he saw a shockingly strong murderous intention erupting from those eyes that were slightly drooped due to old age.

At the same time, black snowflakes like soot fell.

'If that's the case, then so do I.'

All this was done without any thought, but was ‘thought’ subconsciously.

Hiruzen Sarutobi held a sword in one hand, pointed it at the two people in front of him, and sneered:

Get away!

Not only that, whenever the iron sand is about to catch up to his feet, you can see a suddenly formed iron puppet launching a suicidal attack at Sarutobi Hiruzen regardless of the cost.

Puppet, manipulator, multitasking!

This is the fighting technique that the Second Kazekage became famous for!

Moreover, it is indeed useful enough.

The surface of the [True Name Well] blade in the hand is bursting with flames.

The fingers in the sleeves of the scorpion robe quickly formed seals.

The flowing black wall was entirely made of steel. On a normal day, even if a whole ninjutsu team was attacking, Scorpion would not have the slightest doubt about its defensive power.

However, it is paradoxical that

Such a seemingly rusty battle ax gave the two people in front of them a strong sense of crisis that was so heavy that their prefrontal lobes continuously issued emergency warnings.

Wave after wave of iron sand was seen chasing behind Sarutobi Hiruzen. Although the speed was obviously slower, the overwhelming power was extremely visual impact.

"Eighty Days of Disaster!"

"I see."

"We must inform Masaki-sama of Sarutobi Hiruzen's news alive!"

The moment he shouted out that command, Xie suddenly felt that his heart was beating at a speed that was so heavy that even in his own eardrums he could hear the clear sound of blood flowing and blood vessels rupturing.

In the blink of an eye, the puppets in front of them were smashed into a pile of iron filings.

As he spoke, Sarutobi Hiruzen shrunk the Vajra Wishful Rod to the size of a needle tip and pinned it to his ear like a cigarette.

On the charred soil, Hiruzen Sarutobi stood on the spot with a stern look on his face, holding the Vajra Wishful Rod, looking coldly at the two people in front of him.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen was not as helpless as Loquat Juzo and the others.

On the ground where Sarutobi Hiruzen had just stood, a blackened knife mark was left that was several meters long and more than one meter deep.

At this moment, the two of them had such thoughts in their minds at the same time.

The Rashomon, which was made of an unknown material, only supported this terrifying power for a few brief moments before being destroyed in one breath by the ultra-high temperature and the special chakra reaction mixed within it.

Taking advantage of the brief seconds when he leaped away from the ground, Loquat Juuzang changed his hand seal again:

"Kirigakure no Jutsu!"

"Boom——"

"out!"

"."

Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly raised his brows, spat out a mouthful of blood, and seemed to have bitten the tip of his tongue to refresh himself. His thin body stood abruptly on the spot, and the Vajra Wishful Stick in his hand suddenly stretched out, and he struck with a few neat moves.

The wave of iron sand chasing closely behind him was shattered.

Two iron puppets blocked the gap between them, blocking the seemingly rusty black ax with their bodies.

"Who are you?"

He subconsciously elevated his dedication to the village without limit in his heart, and instinctively treated the stupid things he had done as if they had never happened.

"puff!"

".But, since you dare to come and kill me, you should also be prepared to be killed, right?"

Got hit!

Scorpion's eyes suddenly brightened.

At the end of the sentence, the voice of the seemingly short and stooped middle-aged man in front of him could no longer suppress the anger rushing from his chest to his forehead, and his voice sounded like thunder.

The big hand slapped on the ground.

"This is really amazing power."

However, under Sarutobi Hiruzen's Zanpakutō, he didn't even last a single round before he knelt down and unlocked the battle damage screen.

In his hand, he pulled out a [Shallow Fighter] from his waist that was the same as what they were holding and had a wooden structure.

"burst!"

At this moment, not only Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was locked in the barrier by the puppets, failed to react, but even Scorpion's accomplice was stunned for a moment:

"I, I can actually still fight."

He suddenly vomited a large mouthful of blood.

He waited patiently for so long just to drive Hiruzen Sarutobi to continue moving and encourage the paralyzing toxin that had just exploded to invade his body.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned, and his figure suddenly disappeared and reappeared. Every time he jumped, he could jump tens of meters away. At the same time, several shurikens flew out of his hands, and fireballs kept coming from his mouth.

The pupils of the scorpion's eyes are constricted.

Suddenly, the gravel beneath Sarutobi Hiruzen's feet exploded, and a ball of fire exploded.

Just relying on his 'vigor' was enough to immobilize the two people in front of him.

While waving, the strong wind kept blowing.

In this brief moment, it was enough for Xie to retreat ten meters away with a teleportation. Although his face seemed expressionless, his heart in his chest was beating like a drum, and his thoughts were racing.

.

Scorpion didn't even look at these hidden weapons. While his eyes followed Sarutobi Hiruzen, he spread out the five fingers of one hand, and a thin and erratic chakra thread spread out from each fingertip, operating the iron puppet.

The other hand is always performing one-hand seals quickly.

"True name well?"

Immediately afterwards, it will fall on his head.

The cut section is smooth and flat, like a sharp knife cutting through tofu.

"laugh."

"Zizzizi——"

Until it hit the hard and thick Rashomon gate, the terrifying impact force suddenly poured in both directions, and it collapsed, like a wave hitting a dam, and it was torn apart.

At the same time, Loquat Juzo also immediately seized the opportunity for his companion to strike. He leaned against the ground and approached Sarutobi Hiruzen like a shadow.

When Xie saw this scene, she subconsciously curled her lips and laughed in a low voice.

The two stood side by side, jointly resisting the pressure brought by the strong man in front of them.

The ax blade is like a crescent moon.

At the critical moment, the fingers immediately twitched.

"snort!"

Obviously, this is his technique!

The blackened and dry earth collapsed again.

The handprints in the sleeves of the robe changed.

[Puppetry: Iron Blades Close]

Before Sarutobi Hiruzen could react, he saw that Loquat Juzo had already picked up the scorpion, and without even sparing a word, he strode out of the barrier.

‘During the collision, the mark fell from his black axe. Could it be?!’

"Dang! Dang!"

"puff!"

The steaming water mist mixed with the chaotic air flow caused by the fireball continued to rise, forming a slightly humid wind, which instantly obscured the vision of several people.

He seemed to realize something.

"boom!"

After this short delay, the illusion on Scorpion's body had been forcibly broken through.

However, Scorpion suddenly narrowed his eyes.

In an instant, Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes widened.

As soon as he finished speaking, the hearts of the two people in front of him suddenly sank, as if something heavy had fallen, and as if the air pressure had suddenly dropped.

until

"Um?!"

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't want to leave any chance to them. He casually held a beautiful ax flower in his hand and weighed it.

Before he could mentally prepare himself, the huge iron wall that had just been erected in front of him was suddenly cut into two by a black axe.

For a master like him, the principles of weapons are always clear to all.

Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly raised his head, but looked at the strange-looking short sword in Loquat Juuzang's hand, and whispered:

Scorpio was not the only one who was shocked.

The body of the iron puppet that was shattered by the Vajra Ruyi Rod suddenly exploded into clouds of purple smoke.

In Loquat Juzo's peripheral vision, fine gravel floated upward against gravity, and the earth shook faintly.

If you look carefully, you can see that half of the sleeve of his left arm has been singed.

After a person has experienced long-term self-suggestion, he will instinctively create a very solid cognitive orientation for all his actions - that is, everything I do is correct.

The blazing flames flew away and turned into sporadic lights.

Seeing the entire process at a very close distance, Loquat Juzo was even more shocked.

Facing such a strange force, even if they were two against one, they would still be at a huge disadvantage.

But it was only cut down with one axe, and it was immediately divided into two parts.

Dang Dang Dang——

"Psychic Technique·Fourth Level Rashomon!"

Although the opponent seemed uninjured, Scorpion was still like a seasoned hunter, patiently driving the hounds and eagles to drive away the most ferocious prey in the forest.

The smoke cleared.

Loquat Juzo looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with cold eyes through the thin mask, and said word by word:

"It's rude to come and not reciprocate."

Loquat Juuzang walked through the encirclement of dozens of Konoha ninjas with a serious look on his face, and fled towards the outside of the village without looking back:

Hearing this, the two of them subconsciously raised their heads and looked at each other with Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Ding ding ding!

Ignoring the pursuit, Loquat Juzo quickly swung his sword to knock away the shuriken wrapped in flames.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's whole body was wrapped with a terrifying chakra that was suffocating. The surface of his body seemed to be coated with a layer of metallic luster. His breath was swaying like a flame. The ground beneath his feet was crushed by the pressure of this terrifying chakra.

, cracking open a series of fine spider web-like gaps.

The reason why I was willing to use the Vajra Ruyi Stick was purely because of the weight!

But now, he has a more satisfactory choice.

'correct!'

The moment he realized this, Scorpion felt a chill in his heart.

He always firmly believed that Konoha, led by him, was on the 'right' path.

After the brief fight just now, he knew clearly what level of power his companion possessed.

You must not be hit by him!

However, even if it is just a five-escape chain of bullets in the front direction, it still has enough terrifying power.

The friction between the black ax and the puppet triggered a series of flying sparks.

The scorching high-temperature flames wrapped around the rotating iron concealed weapon and quickly drew a large-angle arc in mid-air, sealing off the retreat of the two men.

However, facing the threat of a few iron puppets, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't even bother to look at it. He swung the Vajra Wishful Stick in his hand like a fan, and the buzzing sound caused by the whistling showed that

The huge strength contained in the thin arms, as well as the weight of the stick itself.

Therefore, when he issued a stern and solemn question to a 'traitor', he was completely confident, like a superior judge.

Obviously, the Hokage known as 'Ninja Hero' knows the power of his moves very well.

"Buzz——"

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at them coldly, with dark murderous intent boiling in his heart, but he had to hold it down temporarily and asked in a deep voice:

"You are the only person in Konoha who has passed the first sword selection test."

One fan, two fans, three fans.

The fourth fan!

"Boom!"

"It seems that the abilities of your knife are 'devour' and 'release', right?"

'And why does he seem to be ignoring my toxins?'

Almost at the moment when his voice fell, several slightly deformed iron puppets suddenly sprang out from the charred soil at the feet of Sarutobi Hiruzen, wrapped in fine iron sand.

Just contaminated with such a small amount,

"Swish swish——"

It was not until this moment that Scorpion, who lowered his head, realized that his exposed wrist had been stained with a piece of black, gradually melting soot.

The black ax fell from his hand.

"Fire Release·Risk Flower Claw Red!"

"No more fighting, strategic retreat!"

"Lord Jianghui's matters come first!"

So, when Hiruzen Sarutobi dispersed the mist and rushed out of the smoke, he saw only an empty ruins.

And a question mark on his forehead.

Is it so straightforward?
