Chapter 409: Byakuya’s Gains

Byakuya noticed the confusion on everyone’s faces but didn’t explain too much. He could reveal some information, but if he knew everything, the Five Great Shinobi Nations’ fear of Madara Uchiha would turn into suspicion of himself. Besides, he always believed that ninjas trust their own assumptions more than the so-called truth. He only needed to ensure that 90 percent of the information he provided was true; the remaining 10 percent...

Chapter 408: The Secret of the Valley of the End Battle

After selecting the leader of the Ninja Allied Forces, the Six Kage Summit was about to conclude.

Next, the leaders of the major ninja villages only needed to assemble their ninja troops to launch the war against the Masked Man and Madara Uchiha.

However, returning to their villages from the Land of Iron posed a significant challenge for the Five Kage.

The Five Kage and their corresponding ANBU un...

Chapter 407: Allied Forces Commander

“Are you ready to face the challenge?”

Madara Uchiha’s voice echoed repeatedly in everyone’s minds. They could hardly believe that the Madara Uchiha before them was merely a wooden clone with less than 30 percent of the original’s strength.

If even the wooden clone possessed strength comparable to a Kage, then how incredibly powerful must Madara’s true body be!?

Is this really an enemy that the combined ...

Chapter 406: The Three Kage vs Madara Uchiha

Under Madara Uchiha's gaze, everyone standing on the rooftop felt a chill run down their spine.

They didn’t know who he was, but from the power behind his attack, they could feel his overwhelming strength, he was at least on the level of the Five Kage, possibly even stronger.

The jutsu he used seemed to be the legendary Susanoo. Wasn’t that a technique exclusive to the Uchiha clan? But the Uchiha had declined ...

Chapter 405: The Power of Madara Uchiha

The scene of Obito enduring the Dust Release stunned all the powerful ninja present.

Dust Release was almost the only bloodline elimination technique in the shinobi world and was also one of the most destructive jutsu. Before Dust Release, whether it was rock or steel, everything would instantly evaporate, even tailed beasts were no exception.

After a moment of shock, everyone recalled that Obito mastered space-time ni...

Chapter 404: Obito’s Arrival

After mentioning the Masked Man and the Jinchuriki, the atmosphere in the meeting hall gradually grew serious.

Previously, whether it was the quarrels during the Six Kage Summit or the old grudges between Iwagakure and Kumogakure, none of these affected the current interests of the Five Great Shinobi Villages. They were merely disputes over pride.

But the Masked Man was different. His actions targeting the Jinchuriki posed a ta...

After a few words left Kakashi confused, Byakuya left the place. Before departing, he glanced at Naruto, then at the sky covered by dark clouds. His gaze seemed to pierce through all obstacles, locking onto the Sage of Six Paths wandering the boundary between life and death.

Just now, while sensing Naruto’s chakra, besides Naruto’s own chakra and the Nine-Tails’ chakra, Byakuya had vaguely detected another presence. This aura bec...

Chapter 402: A Long-Awaited Reunion

“Stronger than General Mifune?”

The samurai was utterly shocked. In his mind, Mifune was already the strongest warrior in the shinobi world. Anyone who could surpass Mifune would have to be one of the absolute elites—like Hanzo of the Salamander from Amegakure, the leaders of the five great villages, or the legendary Sannin.

But this young-looking man named Byakuya… could he really possess such strength?

One day later.

In the Land of Rain, the steel-and-concrete-filled Amegakure stood solemn beneath the rare clear sky.

For once, the sunlight managed to pierce through the usual heavy clouds.

Atop the rooftop of a tall building, a young man with bright orange hair sat quietly. He wore the iconic black cloak adorned with red clouds. The warm sunlight bathed him as he gazed over all of Amegakure beneath him.

Why did Jiraiya insist on starting a battle with Rasa here?

The reason was simple: intelligence.

He learned that Orochimaru had used the Edo Tensei to resurrect the First Hokage, Second Hokage, and the Fourth Kazekage. However, the Kazekage had somehow broken free from the jutsu’s control on his own, severing Orochimaru’s influenc...

Chapter 185: Supporting Role

At the moment Gaara activated the Hypnotic Sleep Jutsu, the Sunagakure ninja, already familiar with this scene and deeply gripped by fear, began to scatter in all directions.

At that moment, they simply couldn’t perceive the massive monster before them as one of their own.

It was merely a creature that made no distinction between friend and foe, only mass destruction.

And indeed, that was the harsh reality.

First, Sunagakure’s forces hadn’t suffered significant losses because the retreat order had come in time.

Second, the Konoha shinobi were still primarily focused on Orochimaru and the shinobi from Otogakure.

However, Gaara's unstable factor ultimately led to Konoha's forces catching up to the Sunagakure shinobi.<...

Although he was born of the Ōtsutsuki clan from Earth, Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki was unaware of the existence of the Karma seal, but that didn’t stop him from sensing the power above, one that was strikingly similar to his mother Kaguya’s.

This sudden, bizarre anomaly left Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki somewhat puzzled.
