Chapter 219: One Hit... Defeating the Ninja Army, Sasuke Uchiha Enters
...
"Hmph... The Five Kage? Nothing special..."
On another battlefield, Madara Uchiha stood atop a massive, broken tree root.
As for the Five Kage who had been fighting him...
They were all beaten down, lying on the ground, unable to rise. The most horrific injury belonged to Tsunade; her body had been torn in two.
The battle site looked as if a natural disaster had swept through it. Craters from destruction were everywhere, along with traces of massive Wood Release usage.
For the reanimated Madara Uchiha, fighting the new generation of Five Kage was merely a warm-up, a nostalgic trip down memory lane to his past battles.
The strength of the Five Kage... wasn't enough to make him get serious.
"This body..." He looked at the cracks unique to the reanimated form on his arm.
Cold. Lifeless.
There was no sensation of being alive. The warm-up battle just now hadn't given him the blood-boiling excitement of his past life.
For ordinary ninjas brought back by Edo Tensei, possessing infinite chakra and an immortal body allowed them to unleash strength far beyond their prime.
But for Madara Uchiha, these two traits were irrelevant. The reanimated body only severely limited his power, failing to compare to when he was alive.
"It is time to possess a real body..."
Purple ripples lit up in Madara's eyes as his body began to levitate.
"Obito. Since Nagato is dead, you will perform the Rinne Tensei to resurrect me!"
"The price for saving you back then... it is time to pay it back!"
Whoosh!
He flew toward the final battlefield at extreme speed.
...
The Ten-Tails Battlefield.
Six Paths: Ten-Tails Coffin Seal!
Under Konan's control, Obito Uchiha landed on the Ten-Tails' head.
The moment he completed the hand seals, the Ten-Tails beneath his feet let out a roar of rage toward the sky. Then, its body seemed to melt as it was sucked into Obito.
This shocking scene stunned all the ninjas present.
They froze briefly, staring in horror at what was unfolding before them.
"What... what is he doing??!"
"Is... is he using his own body to contain the Ten-Tails!!"
"Is he... is he trying to become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, like the other Tailed Beast hosts??!!"
"Is... is that something a human can even do?"
The Ten-Tails was larger than all nine other Tailed Beasts combined. An ordinary Jinchuriki was already considered a strategic weapon for a village.
So, a Ten-Tails formed from nine beasts... if he transformed into the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, how terrifying would his power be?!
The ninjas didn't even dare to imagine it.
Their hearts went cold, and a sense of despair began to rise.
"Everyone!!" Nara Shikaku's voice rang out in the minds of every ninja in the division.
"Don't give up! We still have a chance!!"
"The enemy is absorbing the Ten-Tails and cannot move! This is the last chance to attack. Do not waste it! Attack with full force immediately! Interrupt him!!"
"Attack!!"
Shikaku's final shout spurred all the ninjas into action instinctively. They formed hand seals, preparing to unleash their strongest Ninjutsu at Obito Uchiha, who was suspended in mid-air absorbing the beast.
Konan floated in the air, taking in the movements of the surrounding ninja army.
The blue galaxy in her eyes flowed and flickered slightly.
Expressionless, she extended her hand downward and fired a silver tornado.
—Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!
BOOM!
The silver tornado covered the entire battlefield perfectly.
Unstoppable power instantly sent every single ninja flying.
Their attacks were brutally interrupted.
Bodies flew horizontally through the air, coughing blood as they stared at the violet-haired figure in the sky.
Horror. Terror.
With just a casual wave of her hand, she had blown away every ninja present.
Such power was terrifying enough to be suffocating. It was despair.
How could the Akatsuki's White Tiger be this strong?!
Unrivaled!!
Even the entire Allied Shinobi Force wasn't enough to withstand a single blow from her??!
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Ninjas crashed from the sky onto the ground, kicking up cloud after cloud of dust.
Wails and cries of pain rose and fell in waves.
They soon discovered that they... they couldn't stand up...
"Argh—! My... why can't I move my body???"
"Me... me too! Except for my head, my body feels paralyzed. I have no strength!!"
"It seems everyone is the same! I can't access my chakra. My power feels completely sealed!!"
One by one, the ninjas lay on the ground.
Faces pale with terror, they stared at the figure in the sky.
Their current condition was undoubtedly related to that strike just now!
Not only were they blown away with such domineering force, but she also possessed such a bizarre power that instantly incapacitated all of them!
Lying on the ground like lambs waiting for slaughter.
Is... is this really a power a human can possess??!
How many ninjas were here?
Almost the entire ninja world's forces were gathered here—at least 80,000!
Yet, so many ninjas were subdued by the opponent in an instant.
This... this gap in strength... it was despairing. How were they supposed to fight this???
"How can this be... Why is White Tiger's power so terrifying??"
"We can't move. Just wait for death..."
"This power is no different from a god... Resistance is futile. We really can only wait to die..."
"Where are the Five Kage... Only the Kage can fight such an enemy."
"Fight my ass! Even the Tsuchikage definitely isn't a match for White Tiger!"
"I'm tired. I'm done fighting. Just waiting to die. I'm laying flat... If you need anything, burn some joss paper for me..."
The absolute gap between heaven and earth caused most ninjas to completely lose heart and give up.
Faced with such a horrifying enemy, any struggle or resistance was useless. They could never win.
Might as well wait for death...
Konan had controlled the power of this strike precisely. She didn't kill a single ninja. After all, the chakra in their bodies needed to be harvested by the God Tree; it couldn't be wasted.
One hit to incapacitate them was enough.
"Sakura..." Ino lay on the ground, turning her head to look at Sakura nearby.
With a sobbing tone, she revealed a smile that was uglier than crying.
"Looks like we're really going to die this time... That kind of enemy... that kind of power... it's really not something we can contend with..."
Sakura's face was bitter as she stared blankly at the blue-haired figure. "A female ninja far, far stronger than my master, Lady Tsunade..."
She looked back at Ino and squeezed out a smile. "Ino, dying together with my best friend at the end isn't so bad..."
She no longer expected a miracle.
Nor did she harbor any fantasies about Naruto turning the tide of the battle.
Because... she knew very well that Naruto and Kakashi-sensei were already dead...
The Fourth Great Ninja War... they had lost.
The enemy had defeated the Ninja Alliance with invincible strength.
They could only wait for the final moment to arrive, unable to do anything else...
The figure she had chased for half her life floated into Sakura's mind—Sasuke Uchiha.
"Sasuke... where are you now? Please don't come here..."
Just as she whispered this, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in her field of vision.
Black spiky hair, the red and white Uchiha crest on his back.
Sakura's pupils shrank violently in disbelief. "Sasuke!!"
The person who suddenly leaped into mid-air was none other than the Sasuke she had been longing for!
judging by his stance, he seemed to be challenging White Tiger.
"Sasuke, don't!!" Sakura panicked and screamed, "You're not White Tiger's match! Run!!"
"Run away!!"
"Hmph!" Sasuke Uchiha snorted coldly, not looking back. "Don't underestimate the Uchiha!!"
Red light flared in his eyes. His Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan stared fixedly at Konan in the sky as he declared arrogantly, "White Tiger!"
"I have already seen your death with these eyes!"
"Experience the divine power of the Uchiha properly! Be shocked, tremble, despair, and then die!! Complete Body Susanoo!!"
