Chapter 437: The Man Buried in Time

"Finally decided to show yourself, huh? Nagato!"

As he spoke, Sasuke smiled and glanced back at Sakura.

In that brief moment, she had tried to attack him.

Unfortunately, her attempt was interrupted by the sudden Divine Almighty.

However, what surprised Sasuke wasn't that Sakura had tried to attack him, but rather the familiar chakra fluctuation he sensed in that strike though it hadn't fully erupted.

It was Tsunade's monstrous strength technique.

It seemed Sakura had already learned Tsunade's technique and had likely become her disciple.

But now, Sasuke didn't have time to greet Sakura.

He glanced in Naruto's direction.

It looked like he'd have to deal with these people first before going to Naruto.

Otherwise!

With people constantly getting in the way, Sasuke couldn't fully unleash his power.

Swish!

In an instant, Sasuke's figure vanished.

At that moment, Sakura wanted to say something, but it was already too late.

Sasuke was gone!

Once Sasuke decided to leave, no one could stop him. With his incredible speed, even the ninjas of the Allied Shinobi Forces couldn't hope to intercept him.

Shikamaru and the others glanced at Sakura.

"Sakura? Weren't you in charge of treating the Four Kage?"

"Why did you come here?"

Hearing this, Sakura smiled helplessly. "With my medical skills, I can't bring the Four Kage back to life. Now... there's no need for me to intervene!"

No need?

What did she mean?

However, Sakura didn't plan to explain further. Instead, she leaped forward, heading toward the front lines of the Allied Shinobi Forces.

She wanted to witness Sasuke's battle firsthand, to see just how strong he had become.

With her newfound strength, she wondered if there was any hope of bringing Sasuke back... to Konoha!

Shikamaru and the others hurriedly followed.

At the front lines of the Allied Shinobi Forces, there was a massive crater, though it was much smaller than the one left behind when Konoha was destroyed in the original timeline.

After all, Nagato's goal was to eliminate Sasuke's Wood Clone army.

He didn't need an overwhelmingly powerful impact; instead, he needed to maximize the area of effect.

So, the crater was only about ten meters deep.

It looked like a giant dish.

The Allied Shinobi Forces stood on the right edge of the crater, while Sasuke's Wood Clone army surrounded the other side.

There were still quite a few Wood Clones left, but compared to the current Allied Shinobi Forces, their numbers were insignificant.

Not even worth mentioning.

However, compared to the few thousand remaining White Zetsu troops, they were far more numerous.

Nagato stood at the center of the crater, with the Four Kage behind him.

Deidara and Sasori, who had been freed, were completely unqualified to participate in this battle.

They could only guard the remaining White Zetsu troops and watch from the sidelines.

Thud!

Suddenly, Sasuke descended from the sky, landing directly in the center of the crater.

As the dust settled, Sasuke slowly walked toward Nagato.

He stopped about twenty meters away from Nagato.

Looking up at him, Sasuke said, "Isn't it a bit early for you to show up now?"

In this situation, the best strategy would naturally be to let the mantis stalk the cicada, with the oriole waiting behind.

Wait until Sasuke had dealt with most of the Allied Shinobi Forces and was exhausted before Nagato made his move.

That would be the most effective way to deal with Sasuke!

However, Nagato smiled. "I can handle my own enemies. I don't need anyone's help."

As he spoke, Nagato pointed at Sasuke.

"Uchiha Sasuke, you are the final wall standing in the way of my peaceful world!"

"Once I break through you, I can establish a truly peaceful world!"

Hearing Nagato's words, Sasuke almost laughed.

What was this guy trying to do?

Spouting nonsense about creating a peaceful world? He was just a pawn being used by others.

"Looks like your world won't be coming to fruition," Sasuke replied.

Hearing this, Nagato's expression darkened. "No! I don't think so. You... are strong, but you're not invincible!"

He raised his hand.

The Four Kage slowly stepped forward. "Now, I possess all the abilities of the Six Paths of Pain, along with the assistance of these four powerful Kage from history!"

"Defeating you is only a matter of time!"

Sasuke chuckled lightly. "You're relying on these dead people? They've already been left behind by the times. Do you really think the ninjas of the new era are inferior to these Kage who have been buried by history?"

"Hey! Kid, who do you think you are?"

The Third Raikage frowned.

"Judging by the situation, the reason we were resurrected was to deal with you?"

"A brat like you is worth the effort of resurrecting so many of us?"

Clearly, the Third Raikage didn't believe Sasuke posed any real threat.

No matter how you looked at it, Sasuke was too young. At that age, no matter how strong he was, he couldn't be that powerful.

However, at that moment, the Second Mizukage spoke up.

"Raikage! Don't underestimate this kid. He's a monster among monsters... absolutely..."

Before he could finish, the Raikage and Tsuchikage took action.

The Raikage, with a look of disdain, activated his Lightning Release Chakra Mode. "Strong? A monster? In the face of true power, no one has the right to call themselves a monster!"

In an instant, he transformed into a bolt of lightning, charging straight at Sasuke. His speed was even faster than his son, the Fourth Raikage.

Truly worthy of being called the strongest shield and spear.

At the same time, the Second Tsuchikage, Mu, wanting to prove the Second Mizukage wrong, used Dust Release to disassemble his body, transforming into a beam of white light that instantly reformed behind Sasuke.

"Kid, it seems you beat up the Second Mizukage pretty badly. Doesn't look like you're all that strong!"

"You say we're relics buried by time? Then let us show you the power of your predecessors, something you brats of the new generation can't hope to match!"

The light of Dust Release erupted, attacking from both front and back.

The Third Raikage's fist, like a heavy hammer, slammed toward Sasuke's forehead.

But in that instant, Sasuke's lips curled into a faint smile.

"You're all outdated. This battlefield isn't your stage anymore."

As he spoke, Sasuke raised his left hand and casually formed a hand seal. However, no matter how you looked at it, the hand seal was formed too slowly.

It shouldn't have been possible to complete a jutsu in time.

But the next moment...

"Shadow Imitation Technique!"

[Congratulations, host. Shadow Imitation Technique has leveled up (Proficient).]

In an instant, shadows spread from Sasuke's feet, immobilizing both Kage.

A single technique had restrained two Kage-level ninjas.

Shikamaru, who happened to witness this, was stunned. "How does he know my Nara clan's secret technique?"

What's more, Sasuke's Shadow Imitation Technique had effortlessly immobilized two Kage.

This was even more terrifying than his own Shadow Imitation Technique...

How was this possible?!
