Red sand dust

Over the past few decades, the Five Kage Conferences held in the five major ninja villages have sat together many times to discuss major issues in the ninja world. Most of the time, they were in the Kingdom of Iron, with occasional exceptions.

As hosts, the warriors of the Iron Country have gained a lot of experience.

In the past, there have been cases where uninvited guests tried to force their way into the Iron Kingdom and disrupted the Five Shadows Conference, but there had never been such a big move as tonight.

"Still no enemy found!"

After waving the reporting samurai back, Mifune, who was fully armed, stood guard at the door, looking worriedly at the thick fog rolling outside, spreading in all directions.

The Kingdom of Iron is located in the northern frontier. The weather is cold and the climate is rainy and snowy. Even in summer, there are few extremely hot days.

Because it is close to the sea, the rolling hills and the water vapor brought by the cold air falling from the sky, there are many foggy weather. But like tonight, when it is so cold, the wind is swirling all the time, and there is thick fog, then That's so weird.

The chakra aura contained in the thick fog is the fundamental reason why this place is invaded by the thick fog.

Enemy attack, this is what the warriors of the Kingdom of Iron can determine when they have not found the enemy. Such a serious abnormal situation cannot be hidden from the local indigenous people.

"Send more manpower and form more patrol teams! The reserve team is wearing armor and is ready to attack at any time..."

There were sharp whistles one after another, and the five shadows and their guards who were about to take a rest were also alerted.

After sending away the samurai who reported the danger, Kurama Yakumo and Haruno Sakura stood guard outside the door where Shimura Danzo was resting.

A somewhat nervous Haruno Sakura turned her head from time to time to observe the samurai coming and going around the corner, and whispered to Kurama Yakumo worriedly:

"Is it true that someone will attack the Five Kage Conference? This is the place where the ninja world's combat power is at its peak. Does anyone really dare to cause trouble?"

"There are definitely some people who have the courage, but not many have the ability!"

Through deeper spiritual perception, Kurama Yakumo already knows the real situation outside.

The second generation of the Mizukage, Kito Gengetsu, is a rare water escape master in the ninja world. His psychic beast, the Big Clam, has the ability to use thick fog to release illusions, and can create an environment similar to a mirage. The power of the magical steam tower is real. horrible.

This secret technique that combines water escape and genjutsu does not seem to be as close to the essence of chakra as Qian's phantom fire, which is made from yin escape, or Kurama Yakumo's further genjutsu, which is really close to the essence of chakra. In actual combat, it is not bad at all. It is a combat art that combines water escape, necromancy and illusion.

The secret technique that Daimaru often used in the past few years, the Polarizing Killing Formation, is more or less based on the ability of the Ghost Lantern and the Moon. It is also a stunt that deflects light. The Tsuchikage Nidaime used water mist, and Daimaru used compressed air. Water Escape and Wind Escape are essentially the same.

As a ninja who is also proficient in genjutsu, Kurama Yakumo can understand the reason why the attacker did what he did. If he cannot create an external environment that is beneficial to him, the strength of genjutsu ninjas will be greatly reduced.

In the thick fog that can distort even perception, those dedicated warriors are completely manipulated by applause, and they can't even touch the enemy's shadow.

"Samurai...can't become the mainstream, and it's not without reason!" This is the age of ninjas. Whoever can use chakra more effectively can dominate the ninja world! 』

After all, the Kingdom of Iron is a country of samurai, and even Mifune, the leader, is not very good at dealing with this kind of top illusion.

"coming!"

Suddenly, Kurama Yakumo's eyes narrowed, and he turned to look at the corner of the wall. Through the thick granite barrier that was comparable to a city wall, a figure hidden in the shadows could be seen, avoiding the sight of the patrolling samurai. He was almost invisible. After going around the blind spot that might have been noticed, we were about to reach the rest area where the Five Shadows were.

Just when the visitor was about to break through the defense, a burly figure walked out from the shadows behind the stone pillar.

Just when the attacker paused, a bright light suddenly appeared, illuminating the shadow, and the strong figure of Uchiha Sasuke appeared in front of him.

"Thunder Escape·Thunder Phantom Lightning Pillar!"

The handsome young man with blond hair, Yun Ren Xi, shines with golden light all over his body, making all stalkers in the shadows invisible.

Xi, who has excellent perception ability, still found traces of the enemy at such a close distance.

Even the illusion effect of Thunder Release's strong light made Uchiha Sasuke stunned for a moment.

The flaw that was exposed in a very short time was caught by the thunder shadow, and the strong body surrounded by lightning suddenly accelerated...

"Thunder Escape: Thunder Plow Hot Knife!"

With shocking speed and extremely powerful punch, he directly hit Uchiha Sasuke.

Under the heavy blow, Uchiha Sasuke's body flew upside down, hit a stone wall not far away, turned into chakra smoke, and disappeared into the air with a bang.

"Shadow clone? Something seems wrong..."

The fourth generation Raikage moved his hands and feet, and the chill in his voice spread.

"It seems that you are Uchiha Sasuke, right? The grudge of my brother Kirabi being attacked needs to be settled carefully..."

At the corner of the long corridor, Uchiha Sasuke appeared with a cold face, holding the hilt of the Kusanagi sword at his waist with one hand.

I originally thought of finding the exact location of Shimura Danzo, killing him with one blow, and then running away after the assassination, but I didn't expect that he was discovered before he got deep enough.

The movement here immediately attracted a large number of patrolling samurai, who all rushed here and completely blocked Uchiha Sasuke's retreat.

Mifune, who came after hearing the news, waved everyone away.

"This is not a battle for you to intervene in, just stay back and be on guard!"

In a battle between the top ninjas in the ninja world, the two parties involved may not necessarily be able to decide whether to live or die. Those who watch the excitement and get too close will definitely not end well.

The Kingdom of Iron is a neutral country, and there is no need for the samurai to shed their blood for the grievances between ninjas. It is enough to show their stance when the time is right.

Among the people nearby, the one who had the biggest objection to Uchiha Sasuke was probably the Raikage. First, the two-tailed jinchuriki Yuki was attacked, followed closely by the eight-tailed jinchuriki, Kirabi. One of them died and the other was injured. It was really a big blow. deficit.

The other ninja villages have more or less dealt with the "Akatsuki" organization and have already anticipated the losses they may suffer. Only the Raikage really regards the rebellious ninja organization as a bastard that can be wiped out at any time, and Other wandering ninja groups are equivalent.

As a result, now, after suffering a great loss, he couldn't accept it anymore. It was inevitable that the Fourth Raikage would be angry.

Especially Uchiha Sasuke, a rebellious nin who had only just started his career, was even more infuriating.

The Fourth Raikage, who has turned on the Thunder Chakra mode, is surrounded by a layer of Thunder Armor that integrates offense and defense, which increases his speed to the extreme that his body can bear. At the same time, he holds extremely powerful lightning in his hands, just like the arrival of the God of Thunder. Terrible.

After charging up, the Fourth Raikage accelerated his thrust again.

"Thunder Release: Heavy Flood Storm!"

Even with the eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, he could not see the trajectory clearly. Uchiha Sasuke, who had just used Susanoo to defend himself, stretched out his giant hand and was hit in the chest by the fourth generation Raikage's elbow. Zuo Nenghu jumped to pieces, and his whole body was like a cannonball. He crashed through the wall behind him, rolled dozens of meters, and landed in the hall outside. He collapsed two pillars before stopping.

This time it was no longer a clone. Uchiha Sasuke vomited out a few mouthfuls of blood and struggled to get up. Chakra gathered in his eyes and stimulated his pupils. The purple Susanoo rose up from the ground and swung a giant hammer-like weapon. Both hands swept forward, smashing the surroundings into a mess, with gravel flying, and then retreating steadily, a pitch black sharp arrow shot out, and under the control of Yan Dun Gaji Tu Ming, turned into black flames all over the sky.

Taking advantage of the situation, the Raikage rushed forward with the intention of continuing the attack and used his fist to push back the rubble. He accidentally caught a piece of black fireworks, which quickly spread down his arm.

In desperation, the Fourth Raikage, who was about to cut off his arm to protect himself, remembered a crisp female voice in his mind.

"Don't worry, I'll help you!"

Immediately afterwards, in the increasingly dense fog around them, several twisted black figures rushed over, like twisted monsters after a plasticine doll was baked. They attached to the arm of the Fourth Raikage, absorbing all the Amaterasu Black Flame. After entering his own body, he quickly broke away and gathered together to form a nearly three-meter-tall black flame giant, staggering towards Uchiha Sasuke.

"This is……"

Sensing the power of illusions and seals, and even a strange space-time characteristic, the Fourth Raikage looked in surprise at the Sixth Hokage, Shimura Danzo, and the guardians Haruno Sakura and Kurama Yakumo who were coming from behind. Finally, the focus fell on Kurama Yakumo, who was holding a paintbrush in one hand and a sketchbook in the other.

"I've long heard that the already severed blood line of the Kurama family has reappeared. I didn't expect it to be so shocking..."

Kurama Yakumo smiled kindly and looked at the semi-material figure wrapped in flames. In just ten seconds, it was burned away, leaving only a thin paper-like sheet, which darkened the surrounding sky. The flames were absorbed into it, and then under the control of Kurama Yakumo, it fluttered into the sketchbook held in his left hand. After integrating perfectly, he turned the pages and closed them, completely sealed in the depths of the layered illusion space.

"Little girl, there are so many black flames, can you seal them?"

As a landowner, Mifune looked at the magnificent venue, which was burned to a shambles by Amaterasu's black flames, and couldn't help but ask questions. Unfortunately, his high hopes were replaced by disappointment.

"Amaterasu and Kagu Tomei use their strength together, but I don't have the ability to suppress them all!"

Amaterasu is relatively easy to deal with when it has just started to gain momentum. Once it spreads to such a large area, the only way to eliminate it is to use the secret technique of the Samsara Eye, Sealing Seal, or Fire Release, Kamui, or Fire Sealing Seal. Works well.

Just as he was talking, Mizukage Terumi Mei, Tsuchikage Onoki and Kazekage Gaara also appeared with their guards.

"You are really brave. One person forced his way into the venue of the Five Shadows Conference. Are we being underestimated?"

Terumi Mei said as he glanced around and the majestic Susanoo:

"Sure enough, this is the secret technique of the Mangekyo Sharingan that the Uchiha family is famous for, but..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a piece of hot molten boiling magma shot out and landed on Susanoo's body. His solid body, which had an amazing defense, actually had a tendency to melt.

"Looking at his face, he's quite handsome, but he's too cold. What a pity!"

Sticking out his tongue and licking the hot lava-like fluid at the corner of his mouth, Terumi Mei chuckled. After showing his hand, he waited for others to try his enemy's skills.

Gaara, who had a past after all, suggested calmly:

"The five shadows are all here. You can't deal with any one of them easily, let alone five of them working together..."

However, in this case, it is impossible for the current Uchiha Sasuke to listen.

Haruno Sakura was the most excited, her lips were trembling and tears were about to flow out. She was about to step forward to tell her old feelings, but was held back by Kurama Yakumo.

"Now is not the time, it's useless!"

If you want both parties to talk well, you must have convincing strength. Even if Uchiha Sasuke changes his mind now, with so many people present, they will not let him go.

"The Sharingan's observation ability is very strong, and it has already seen you. Now that Uchiha Sasuke has not expressed anything, it means that it is not a good time for you to appear!"

Haruno Sakura, who was unwilling but had no other choice, suppressed the excitement in her heart and guarded the Sixth Hokage Shimura Danzo with all her heart.

Indeed, Uchiha Sasuke, who seemed to be at the end of his rope, did not feel that he could not survive.

As the second-generation Mizukage behind the scenes, Kito Gengetsu, increased his chakra output, the thick fog outside accelerated and the visibility quickly dropped from tens of meters to less than ten meters. It was barely possible to see who the figures around him were. That’s all.

Not quite right!

Even the Tsuchikage Sandaime Ōnoki, who had an attitude that it had nothing to do with him, was on alert.

The scene fell silent for a moment, and a strange aura filled the air.

Just when everyone was suspicious, suddenly, a dazzling light cut through the thick fog and struck like a sharp sword.

The Raikage Yondaime, who moved quickly by instinct and managed to avoid the beam attack, felt an explosion shock wave spread. Then, a rumble sounded, and most of the venue was trampled. The smoke and dust temporarily dispersed the thick fog and mixed with the water vapor. The unpleasant, pungent smog makes breathing uncomfortable.

"What was that just now?"

Gaara, who had seen it once, unconsciously looked in the direction of Tsuchikage Onoki.

The shock in his eyes could not be concealed, and the big-nosed old man floating in mid-air murmured to himself:

"This is impossible. Apart from me, no one else in the ninja world can do it!"

If it was so easy to succeed in cultivation after being eliminated by blood successors, the Tsuchikage Sandaime wouldn't be so embarrassed and dragging his feet for decades without abdicating his throne in favor of someone more worthy.

"Sure enough, that is the art of Blood Succession Elimination, Dust Escape, and Original Realm Peeling!"

Terumi Mei, who only focused on looking at the handsome guy, reacted belatedly:

"This thick fog doesn't seem to be simple at all. It's a bit like the secret technique of our Hidden Kirigami Village, the Magic Steam Pavilion! However, this secret technique should have been lost since the Nidaime died in the battle!"

Instantly, doubts and some vague conjectures came to mind.

"It seems that we are not guaranteed to win. We have to show our true skills!"

The thunder and lightning on the Fourth Raikage's body became more intense as he spoke.
