The Shadow Clones went all out next, trying all sorts of Ninjutsu and Secret Techniques.
Just as Mokgetsu predicted, even though the Naruto World doesn't have abilities like domain expansion and domain amplification, Unlimited Jutsu still isn't unbeatable.
For example, the Shadow Possession Jutsu can still link to his shadow and control him, and Genjutsu can also affect him.
However, compared to the advantages of Unlimited Jutsu, these are minor issues, as it's unrealistic for a single technique to cover everything.
Moreover, with Mokgetsu's speed, there's no way he could be hit by the Shadow Possession Jutsu, and his eyes allow him to ignore Genjutsu.
Mokgetsu thinks that the drawback of Unlimited Jutsu isn't the Shadow Possession Jutsu, but rather the consumption of Unlimited Jutsu.
Now with over three million Chakra, he doesn't have to worry much about the consumption issues of Unlimited Jutsu.
If he wants to teach it to his disciples, then he needs to think of a solution.
Currently, the only disciple who has the chance to learn Unlimited Jutsu is Kakashi, who has mastered the Transparent World and has remarkable talent in Chakra Control.
Kakashi doesn't lack Chakra; at the age of twelve, he's already surpassed some Konoha Jonin.
But Kakashi already has many abilities, and adding another Chakra-consuming Unlimited Jutsu is really stretching it thin.
"If it could be combined with the Yang Seal, maybe it could become an automatic Unlimited Jutsu before the Chakra of the Yang Seal is depleted." Mokgetsu's mind flashed with an idea.
Mokgetsu has high hopes for the Yang Seal Ninjutsu and has been committed to perfecting the Yang Seal, developing it in different directions.
Suddenly, Mokgetsu remembered something and took out the Six Paths Staff from System Space, injected a bit of Chakra into it, and threw it towards the direction marked by Flying Thunder God.
Swoosh!
Mokgetsu used the Flying Thunder God Jutsu to transfer, then watched quietly as the Six Paths Staff flew towards him, activating the Unlimited Jutsu.
He had no choice; after injecting Chakra, the Shadow Clone would disperse upon contact with the Six Paths Staff, so he could only test it this way.
Bang!
The Six Paths Staff gently hit Mokgetsu, pushing him back a distance.
He used Mystical Palm Jutsu to heal the just-hit area, revealing a look of realization.
The Six Paths Staff possesses the characteristic of Truth-Seeking Orbs that ignore Ninjutsu, and obviously, Unlimited Jutsu falls within the range of being ignored.
In the Ninja World, there are many Ninjutsu and Secret Techniques with miraculous effects. If you use the information gap well, using these Ninjutsu and Secret Techniques to kill a stronger opponent is not uncommon, like with the Hidan Curse.
However, once the level gap is too large, even the most miraculous Secret Techniques are useless.
Six Paths Level beings are such existences, able to easily erase a Reanimation Body that can swiftly recover Chakra and wounds.
"Sukuna Hikona!"
Mokgetsu gathered Chakra in his eyes and glanced at the Six Paths Staff.
Whiz!
The Six Paths Staff rapidly shrunk.
His Dojutsu has a high priority; even the Six Paths Staff with Truth-Seeking Orb characteristics can still be shrunk.
Then Mokgetsu stored the Six Paths Staff back into System Space.
Although he could place it in Daikokuten, both are similarly convenient, but Mokgetsu still feels System Space is better.
"The advantage of Unlimited Jutsu is that it can block Taijutsu as well, complementing the defensive shortcoming of Sukuna Hikona while enriching methods," thought Mokgetsu.
In addition to defense, Unlimited Jutsu has many other applications.
For instance, you can compress the space between yourself and a certain location to achieve an effect similar to teleportation.
Of course, it's only similar; in Naruto, it's more like a very fast Instant Body Jutsu, different from space transfer like Flying Thunder God. If there are people or objects on the path, Mokgetsu will run straight into them.
Although not as good as Flying Thunder God Jutsu, as an advanced usage technique of a Ninjutsu, it's already considered powerful.
Furthermore, Unlimited Jutsu can also be used for offense, turning the distance between multiple targets negative, thus generating an attractive force.
This move has considerable power, but it's not very practical; in actual combat, it might not be as good as the basic ability of the Rinnegan's Heavenly Attraction.
Overall, Mokgetsu feels that Unlimited Jutsu is still worthy of his S+ Drawing Scroll.
Unlike Thoughtless Slash and Green Flame, Unlimited Jutsu is very balanced, able to withstand, attack, and flee.
Even if a ninja only trains in Unlimited Jutsu, they can become a formidable figure.
This is a Ninjutsu very suitable as a family secret technique, just that its difficulty is high and it's easy to lose its transmission.
...
Hokage Building, meeting room.
"The battle site is decided, on a small hill on the border of the Land of Fire and the Land of Rain," said Sarutobi Hiruzen.
For the battle location, Sarutobi Hiruzen hadn't spared much effort wrangling with Orochimaru and the Ninja Sect there.
Sarutobi Hiruzen certainly hoped it would be in the Land of Fire and closer to Konoha; this way, it was less likely for accidents to happen.
Kakuzu and the others wanted it further from Konoha, preferably in Six Paths City, to avoid accidents.
Eventually, they could only compromise and choose a mountain on the border between the two countries.
"What about the time?" Mitokado Homura asked.
At this point, stopping it was certainly impossible.
"Four days later, I've already let Orochimaru leave the Ninja Sect to scout the site," Sarutobi Hiruzen replied.
Actually, it wasn't the Ninja Sect he was wary of because there were only a few powerful ones there; he was concerned about other ninja forces causing trouble.
"I'll go with you then," Mitokado Homura suggested.
With him and Sarutobi Hiruzen teaming up, plus Orochimaru, they should be able to break through even in the worst situation.
Moreover, the border of the Land of Fire is still part of the Land of Fire; Mitokado Homura thought any surprise wouldn't be too extreme.
"No need to trouble yourself, at least with Orochimaru there," Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head.
This was his impulsive choice; how could he trouble an old friend to join him?
"What's the trouble? Just consider it a few days of paid leave," Mitokado Homura said with a smile.
"I won't help you with your work; you can do it yourself when you get back," Utatane Koharu said faintly.
Seeing this scene, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but smile as he recalled their past missions together.
"Then, Homura, come with me; it's been a long time since we went out of the village together."
After becoming the upper echelon, each has been heavily tasked, generally not easily leaving the village. When they do, it's usually for important missions, rarely acting together.
"While I'm away from Konoha for these few days, if there's any pressing matter, I'll trouble you, Mokgetsu, to handle it; other issues can wait until I return," Sarutobi Hiruzen said, looking at Mokgetsu.
Since this time away from the village won't be long, Sarutobi Hiruzen hadn't arranged for a substitute Hokage.
"I understand, Third Hokage," Mokgetsu nodded in response.
He planned to depart at the same time as Sarutobi Hiruzen, leaving a Shadow Clone in Konoha to handle affairs.
After all, it's a battle with a not-yet-fully-aged Sarutobi Hiruzen; it's impossible for the Ninja Sect's Shadow Clone to step up.
Three days later.
Sarutobi Hiruzen and Mitokado Homura donned their mission combat uniforms, meeting at the training ground. Besides the high-ranking officials, six Jonin stood on the training ground.
These were powerful Jonin personally chosen by Sarutobi Hiruzen to act as his temporary guards.
"Mokgetsu, Koharu, I'll leave Konoha to you temporarily," Sarutobi Hiruzen said in farewell.
Mokgetsu's Shadow Clone and Utatane Koharu responded and watched the party leave.
At this moment, Mokgetsu's real body had already used Flying Thunder God Jutsu to transfer out of Konoha.
After exiting the training ground, Sarutobi Hiruzen and Mitokado Homura used the Transformation Jutsu to become ordinary Konoha ninja.
This battle appointment was considered a confidential operation; few people knew, so Sarutobi Hiruzen and Mitokado Homura had to hide their identities.
"Danzo, soon I will avenge you." After leaving Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen looked westward and said.
That direction led to the Land of Rain and was also towards their planned battle location.
PS: The skills of the Five-Barred Guard are quite complex, so I'll try to explain them clearly, writing a little more.
Also, the ability of the Transparent World to enhance Chakra control isn't a new setting; it was mentioned in Chapter 59 after the Perfect Level Breathing Technique was released.
