Still arguing, Onoki instinctively felt a chill at the back of his neck. The large-scale shattered space appeared before the ninja alliance's eyes, and the Third Tsuchikage's body was disintegrated by that shattered space—caught off guard.
"Tsuchikage!!"
Seeing the two-Tomoe Onoki being instantly killed, Gaara's pupils shrank as he shouted.
"Tsuchikage!!"
Below, Naruto Uzumaki's pupils contracted. Everything happened too suddenly. Nearly a kilometer apart, how could a ninjutsu have such a large range without any pre-shock?
At this moment, Yuuki didn't bother with the complicated emotions of the ninja alliance. Standing on Madara Uchiha's side, he looked at his system points and started purchasing ninjutsu.
"Instant Kill."
Kabuto spoke. Although he had already made the previous generation of shadows consume the chakra and stamina of the Third Tsuchikage, this was the first time he saw a shadow-level expert instantly killed.
"Related to space, huh."
Madara Uchiha glanced at the indifferent Yuuki beside him, very interested in the eyes in his sockets. But he also knew that under Sage Mode's perception, he couldn't get close.
Especially since this guy had no stamina drain at all. But once he resurrected, he would definitely succeed. Seeing his full strength wasn't bad, but… he felt his eyes looked a bit strange.
Although having such mismatched eyes at this age was already strange enough, these unknown passwords would be revealed the moment he obtained this pair of eyes.
"Sage Technique: Dust Release – [Disassembly of the Original Realm]."
Yuuki clasped his hands together, a dazzling white light ignited. This Dust Release directly locked onto the entire ninja alliance, preparing to clear the battlefield and move elsewhere.
The real Nine-Tails was not here.
He deducted 250 points, leaving 1838 points. The points needed to summon the Nine-Tails were unknown, so to be safe, he would kill one shadow-level.
His gaze locked onto the weakened Naruto Uzumaki. He felt that right now, not to mention killing him, even moving was difficult. He probably needed him to rest before triggering the system mission.
"I'll let you go for now."
"Humm!!"
A white light suddenly appeared in his hand. Someone, still unaware of who, shouted from the dying Tsuchikage's ninja army: "That… that's Tsuchikage's Dust Release! Run!!"
Seeing the familiar white light in the boy's hand, many ninja from the Land of Earth roared loudly: "Kill that guy! He's just one person—use numbers to overwhelm him! Avenger Tsuchikage!!"
"Yeah!!"
Ninjas from the Land of Earth clenched their swords, shurikens, and explosive tags and charged forward, determined to avenge Tsuchikage!!
"Don't get excited!!"
Seeing the riotous neighboring country ninja, Temari shouted, but her voice was drowned out by the roaring chaos. Her rational response couldn't stir any waves at this moment.
Naruto Uzumaki raised his hands high to create a sand wall to block those reckless ninjas. As the commander of the Fourth Division of the ninja alliance, he wouldn't allow these people to sacrifice themselves in vain.
"Hah!!"
The roar echoed. Naruto Uzumaki, with all his might, piled up a mountain of yellow sand. A giant formed, swinging its arms to try to break his attack and protect the people behind him. This… was his duty as the Kazekage.
"Clang!!"
A white light illuminated the earth, decomposing everything it touched into molecules. In an instant, it cut through the sand and stone giant, and the terrifying residual power split the ninja alliance.
This was just a deterrent. This \[Dust Release] didn't kill many ninjas—only to intimidate them from resisting further.
He was just an outsider, only wanting to follow his own ideas, efficiently recovering the Ten-Tails, taking it and leaving. He had no interest in playing around; the only malicious fun might be seeing the three Tailed Beasts.
Because he was the one absorbing the Ten-Tails, objects like Six Paths Madara were basically impossible to see. The only thing he might fear was Kakashi's Death Seal, but that thing couldn't kill him at all. As for Sealing Techniques, countering them was just a matter of tactics. It was definitely less disgusting than those bizarre cursed objects.
Naruto had been watching from the side all along. Seeing the Dust Release hit the empty space of the ninja alliance, he didn't think it was aimed elsewhere. After all, crossing a kilometer to accurately kill the Tsuchikage was not a joke. Under Sage Mode's perception, such a close-range attack was almost impossible to miss.
He… did it intentionally.
"Back, where is Yuuki? Also, the slug sage disappeared mysteriously halfway through. Did something happen?"
In Japan, inside the second Tokyo Barrier, Zenin Maki asked Yuuki, who was flying in the sky.
"Brother had something to do and went out. The slug sage also called him away, saying he would return at this time tomorrow."
"...I see."
Hearing Yuuki leave, Zenin Maki felt inexplicably disappointed. She had finally gathered her courage to come back, but he left. Her life was so inexplicable—so unlucky…

[Countdown: 23:55:05]
She stopped her ninjutsu and looked at the surprised Naruto Uzumaki and Kabuto, who were confused about the Dust Release, and said, "Let's go to another battlefield first. The Nine-Tails isn't here."
"Huh… you're really merciful, leaving so many ninja alliance troops behind."
The seasoned Madara Uchiha naturally saw that Yuuki deliberately aimed the Dust Release slightly off. Although he didn't know what Obito had done during his own death, it was now clear that the plan to "revive" himself was off course.
This guy might also be using Obito's rebellion to fight against him. Huh… such a clueless fellow. Does he also want to absorb the Ten-Tails' power to become the second Sage of Six Paths?
Well, let's see…
"Yeah, life isn't easy for anyone. Destroying over ten thousand ninjas at once is a bit cruel. If you don't want to fight, I'll go support other places first."
Yuuki looked at Madara, then turned and left. He could feel that a large-scale battle was happening farther away, and he couldn't afford to waste time arguing with Madara now.
"..."
Watching Yuuki leave, Kabuto remained silent. He was preparing to manipulate other Six Paths Reincarnation to get close to him. His actions were too unclear, but he felt like they could cooperate.
"Hmph… such a reckless little brat."
Looking at Yuuki's departure, Madara fixed his gaze on the now-reorganized ninja alliance. There was no one here that could excite his desire for power. Better to join Obito. He wanted to see what Obito had planned against him.
As the three left, Naruto Uzumaki glanced and then dissipated himself. Before leaving, he told Onoki: "They're heading toward my main body's direction. They probably want to capture the Nine-Tails and Eight-Tails directly. I'll send this information to the main body. Also, please tell Lady Tsunade about this."
"Got it."
Watching Naruto disappear, Onoki nodded. Then he shouted to the intelligence team, "Report this information back—Madara Uchiha has truly revived! An unknown young man with Sage Eyes has appeared! The Tsuchikage is dead! They've already set out to recover Kurama and Gyūki. If they don't delay, it's my squad's failure!!"
Seeing the Tsuchikage dead before his eyes, Onoki gritted his teeth. Maybe he was not a qualified shadow…
---
"Boom, boom, boom…"
"Why does the masked man insist on acting in Madara's name?"
The intelligence command center echoed with radio signals. Kakashi Hatake looked at the intelligence report and said, "Is Madara still alive in this world? He must want to mislead us… If he succeeds in deceiving us, the world will fall into panic."
The name Madara alone had such a deterrent effect. His appearance would attract attention, drag people into war, and make us unable to sit back and ignore. And now, we are already being led by this name…
"..."
The Hokage's words fell silent. The Fourth Raikage Ai sat nearby, watching the instruments that monitored battlefield anomalies.
"It's also possible he was revived by the Six Paths Reincarnation." Nara Shikamaru said.
But everyone knew the truth: many dead had been pulled back into this world. Madara's appearance was only a matter of time. They now hoped that the enemy hadn't found Madara's remains, to reduce ninja casualties. Every ninja war left behind unending grief.
"The intelligence team reports!"
The ninja responsible for receiving battlefield intelligence spoke: "Fourth Division reports that the real Madara Uchiha has been revived by the Six Paths Reincarnation!"
"An unknown young man with the Rinnegan intervened in the battle, killed the Third Tsuchikage, and used Naruto's \[Vortex Shuriken], the Fourth Hokage's \[Flying Thunder God], and Ohnoki's \[Dust Release]!"
"They've already set out to recover Kurama and Gyūki. The front lines are in crisis!!"
"Tsuchikage… is dead?!"
Tsunade and A were shocked.
But at this moment, the real concern was not Madara's resurrection, but the young man with the Rinnegan and a bunch of forbidden techniques!!
Uncertain intelligence always skews the battlefield. Nara Shikamaru asked, "That young man with the Rinnegan, tell all units to pay attention to him and investigate his background thoroughly!!"
"I'm going to the battlefield myself!!"
With the death of the Third Tsuchikage, the appearance of the mysterious young man, and the imminent collapse of the front, Tsunade could no longer sit still. She shouted to the nearby Asuma: "You, Asuma! Prepare the \[Heaven's Delivery] Technique! Hurry!!"
"The \[Heaven's Delivery] Technique is a ninjutsu used for teleporting objects!"
Seeing the reckless Hokage, Asuma explained: "This technique doesn't work with Summoning or Reverse Summoning. Basically, it can't teleport people!"
"I don't have time to argue with you! If you don't try, how will you know?!"
"I know!"
Seeing the stubborn Hokage, Asuma was frustrated. She was clearly doing it for their safety. Why is everyone like this? She continued, "In a high-speed teleportation environment, the body will tear apart before reaching the destination. Then, you will die!"
In the past, only the Third Raikage had successfully used it once!
The Third Raikage could do it because he had an extremely resilient body!
The Fourth Raikage, inheriting the Third's bloodline, was another matter. Hokage-sama definitely couldn't do it!
The Fourth Raikage and Nara Shikamaru fell silent. Nara then remembered that the team tasked with protecting the Fourth Hokage, Genma's squad, inherited the Fourth Hokage's \[Flying Thunder God] and could more efficiently escort him to the battlefield instead of risking their lives here.
He said, "I have a plan… but it involves the \[Flying Thunder God]. We can call Genma's squad over, mark a toad with a seal, then teleport it to the battlefield using \[Heaven's Delivery]."
The toad clone of the slug sage on the table spoke: "Even if I get torn apart, I won't be harmed…"
"Not necessary!"
Tsunade raised her left hand, indicating the purple Yin Seal above her head, and said, "I'll use this."
"...I see."
Seeing Tsunade's Yin Seal, Nara Shikamaru rubbed his forehead. Tsunade-sama truly lives up to her "gambling" reputation. She's betting that even if she gets hurt, she can quickly recover using her regenerative abilities.
He sighed: "But this gamble is very dangerous, especially since Tsunade-sama always loses her bets."
"That's only when I'm gambling for money."
Tsunade confidently said, "When risking my life, it's a whole different story. The fact that I've survived this long proves it."
"Ugh…"
Seeing that Nara couldn't do anything to help the Hokage, Asuma looked at the Raikage and said, "Raikage-sama!! Please persuade the Hokage!!"
"Hmm…"
The thoughtful Raikage no longer wanted to delay. His brother, Killer Bee, was with Naruto Uzumaki. If Madara and that unknown young man surrounded him, he would definitely be defeated. He said seriously: "Asuma, prepare the \[Heaven's Delivery] to teleport two people! First, confirm Killer Bee and Naruto's coordinates."
