Godaime Hokage, You Already Lost!

Hanzo fled wildly all the way ahead, while Makoto's group chased after him all the way.

They chased and he fled. They were all doomed.

After running for several miles in this way, Hanzo of the Salamander, who looked extremely embarrassed, suddenly stopped.

He turned around abruptly and threw a flare into the sky.

The signal flare burst into bright flames in the dark night, and with the flickering of the signal flare, there was an extremely powerful Chakra reaction from all around at the same time.

Makoto already knew that there was a trap ahead, but when he really felt the real chakra, he was still instinctively startled.

This chakra volume... is definitely a bijuu!

Before entering the era of Gundam, bijuu still had a certain reputation.

Especially when they are on the battlefield.

In the dense environment of the battlefield, every time the bijuu uses the Bijuudama (Tail Beast Ball), it will bring extremely amazing results.

"One, two, three... four! –

"It's the Chakra reactions of four bijuus! Guys like Iwa and Kumo actually brought out all four bijuus!"

Following Jiraiya's yelling, after the initial explosion of the four chakra reactions just now, they began to converge inwards and finally turned into four extremely huge behemoths.

They roared angrily, even though they were far apart, Makoto could truly feel the terrifying power.

Iwagakure, Yonbi Son Gokuu! Gobi Kukou!

Kumogakure, Nibi Matatabi! Hachibi Gyuuki!

There was no unnecessary nonsense at all. When Makoto's group entered the target ambush circle, the four Jinchuurikis who had completed the tail beast transformation immediately began to accumulate Bijuudama.

Unlike Kyuubi, who often got into trouble with Naruto in the early stage, and ran away from time to time, the four Jinchuurikis in front of them have all completed the run-in with bijuu since they were young, and the Hachibi Jinchuuriki is even more perfect.

At this time, the four bijuus are showing their power at the same time. Even if the Kyuubi is here, it is estimated that it will be beaten as Hanma Yujiro's spouse.

However, the traps of the two great Hidden Villages are obviously not that simple.

As the four Jinchuurikis began to show their power together, two familiar ninjas also jumped out of the dense forest.

Yondaime Raikage A!

Sandaime Tsuchikage Onoki!

Coupled with Hanzo who was chased by Makoto before, they now have three real Kage-leveled ninjas here.

Three against three, plus four bijuus, the advantage is there!

"Kumo and Iwa really look up to us."

"Even if a lion is fighting a rabbit, you must go all out – Godaime Hokage, you have already lost!"

The Yondaime Raikage's voice was loud as thunder, even Makoto's group that was a distance of several hundred meters could hear it.

This is indeed a deliberate trap.

Yondaime Raikage has never been a timid person, even in the face of Uchiha Madara, he dared to solo directly. In fact, his combat ability is even more astonishing, and he almost missed the second version of Susanoo with a single punch.

Such a ferocious top physical attacker insisted on speaking from such a long distance at this time... Obviously, he was guarding against Makoto's genjutsu.

The same is true for the four bijuus.

Makoto's genjutsu is too vicious. If anyone were caught by him, it is directly equal to heading to death.

They may not know that Makoto's genjutsu has reached six points, but they must have taken Makoto's genjutsu into account when they arranged their plans... Their target method is ultra-long-range attack.

This weakness of genjutsu is not really a weakness.

Most of the time, the range of single-target genjutsu is very short, even within ten meters. Large-scale genjutsu are much better, but the influence on ninjas will also be reduced.

No matter how strong Makoto was, it was impossible to forcefully control the enemy at this distance from a few hundred meters away.

However, the Bijuudama could easily hit him.

If suddenly attacked, Makoto's first reaction should be to turn around and run away immediately.

It isn't shameful to run away when you can't win.

After being bombarded by the four Bijuus in turn, even if the three of them survived, their condition would be much worse than before.

At this time, Raikage, Tsuchikage, and Hanzo launched another attack, and the chances of winning were great.

However, Makoto formed seals slowly, revealing no hint of panic that the ambushers expected.

"But that's fine, you are all here now, that is to say, your coalition has lost its commander, and even without the support of Bijuu and Jinchuuriki."

"As long as the Sandaime can perform stably, it is only a matter of time before your coalition is defeated."

Makoto has long seen the advantages and disadvantages of both sides in this war.

Needless to say for Konoha, more elite ninjas, higher morale.

On Iwa-Kumo's side, there are as many as four Bijuus. Once they are allowed to play at will, the consequences will be disastrous.

Even if Konoha wins in the end without getting rid of the opponent's Bijuus first, it will definitely be a Pyrrhic victory¹.

That's why...they knew it was a trap, so they insisted on following Hanzo.

The enemy's Bijuus and top elites have come to encircle and suppress them, and the pressure on the Konoha Ninja Army has been reduced.

There's no other solution to this problem. Who let Konoha's Kyuubi and Suna's Ichibi unable to fight – the Yondaime Kazekage may be willing to give up on Gaara, but Makoto is not willing to give up on Naruto.

Whether it is the relationship with the Yondaime or from the perspective of a Kage, he must keep Naruto.

The Yondaime Raikage sneered.

He reckoned that the Bijuudama would take some time to prepare, so he shouted loudly.

"In the face of this situation, you are not in a hurry... Sure enough, as Tsuchikage-sama said, you have already had similar ideas, but we will do it first."

"No way, they are my money."

Across the distance of hundreds of meters, the two sides looked at each other.

There is no need to say anymore.

Now...

"Recently, have you found any traces of Kirigakure?"

"No."

"That's fine, neither did we."

"Okay, then – let's win!"

The four major Hidden Villages fought together, each relying on means, each with its own destiny, there is nothing to say.

Only Kiri has never made a statement, which is worrying.

Now neither party has found any sign of Kirigakure, that is to say, it is impossible for Kirigakure to send a large force in. At most, some elite squads came to check on the situation... That guy Mizukage, does he dare to come in person?

That being the case, there is nothing to worry about!

Clap!

Everyone formed seals at the same time, and Makoto's quickly used ninjutsu to retreat outside. And the bijuu's Bijuudama slammed toward them at a frenzied speed.

Boom, boom, boom!

Infinite light and heat hit from a distance, completely obscuring Makoto's vision.

Because there is no precise locking, they don't have to bear the full power. But the opponent's killing intent is so mad that he doesn't spare the consumption of chakra at all. Even if they don't die, they still have to face the full state of the enemy Kage... Overcome it!

After the first round of Bijuudama bombing, as expected, Makoto's group was very embarrassed, especially Makoto, who was not good at melee combat, his clothes were torn, and his seven orifices were bleeding from the shock.

Except for those big bosses in the final stage, no one has ever enjoyed the feeling of this kind of Bijuu cannon.

However, just as the Raikage was about to launch the second wave of Bijuudama bombing, Makoto took out a signal flare from his arms and threw it into the sky.

"It's such a time to play, and all the cards that can be used must be taken out. –

"It turns out that their tactics are like this...then try my trump card!"

"'Sensei, save me!'"

The signal flare was launched into the sky, and a strange text was marked in the sky.

Just when the Tsuchikage and the Raikage were wondering what Makoto wanted to do, there was a flash of a figure, and Makoto had already been carried on his back by a white-haired man in armor.

Onoki recognized the man at a glance.

"This is Hiraishin! –

"You are... Nidaime Hokage!"

The strong man who should have died reappeared in the world.

What surprised Tsuchikage even more was that the fiery man who appeared with the Nidaime Hokage...

"Sho- Shodaime Hokage... Weren't you guys... how could this be!"

Known as the God of Shinobi, the man who can basically be regarded as the first person under the levels of Six Paths has also reappeared in the world now.

"Hey, it's been so many years, and I still meet acquaintances... But now is not the time to reminisce about the old days."

The man in the fiery red armor smiled heartily and clasped his hands together.

"Wood Release: Wood Human Technique!"
