Konohagakure, Land of Fire
The destruction caused by ‘Satori' was still ongoing. With its perception of malice, extraordinary flexibility, and high-speed flight ability, it had turned the entire village upside down. Sёarᴄh the NovelZone.fun website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Elder Hiruzen and Tsunade-hime had already joined the battle. However, neither Elder Hiruzen nor Tsunade-hime excelled at dealing with giant enemies like Satori. Moreover, Satori could fly, leaving them with little choice but to offer limited resistance to its attacks while desperately searching for a solution.
The last time Satori was released, Fujin had used his ingenuity to defeat Satori, but they didn't have the luxury of that option now. Their primary focus was on finding a way to seal Satori once again. Holding his Adamantine Staff, Elder Hiruzen gazed at the hovering figure of Satori with a troubled expression. Just a while ago, he and Tsunade teamed up and attacked Satori together, trying different tactics repeatedly, but none of them worked!
Tsunade-hime appeared beside him, panting heavily, and said, "Sensei… we have to think of something quickly, or this guy will cause a lot of damage to the village!"
Elder Hiruzen nodded with a sigh, "Sigh… I know."
BOOM!
At that moment, an explosion erupted. Elder Hiruzen and Tsunade-hime turned their attention to the source of the explosion and witnessed Satori firing a chakra ball at one of the residential districts of Konoha. He then swooped down and destroyed several more buildings.
“Damn, that guy!” Tsunade-hime gritted her teeth and suddenly had an idea. She asked, “Sensei, why not seek help from the Tsuchikage and Kazekage? At this rate, the village will be destroyed before the Uchiha Clan takes any action!”
Elder Hiruzen pondered over Tsunade-hime’s suggestion and then shook his head, “Let’s wait and observe for a while. If there is no progress, then I will have an Anbu deliver the message to the Tsuchikage and Kazekage.”
Tsuchikage and Kazekage are hidden cards he has prepared to deal with the Uchiha Clan. Although Kuroto has requested help from Amatsukami, the number of people from that organization who have made their move and the time it will take them to stop the Uchiha Clan is still unclear. There is a possibility that they might fail, and the Uchiha Clan could succeed in their rebellion.
Hiruzen doesn't want to take any chances, so he prefers to keep Tsuchikage and Kazekage hidden for a while longer until it is confirmed that the Uchiha's Coup d'état has been thwarted.
Tsunade-hime frowned, "Then how do you plan on dealing with this monster?"
Elder Hiruzen once again looked at Satori with a thoughtful expression.
The lack of powerful Shinobi with flight capability has always been Konoha's shortcoming. This problem is usually not significant, as they don't have to deal with such individuals that often. However, when they are faced with powerful enemies with flight capability, it becomes quite apparent.
As Elder Hiruzen looked at Satori, his expression suddenly changed, "Not good!"
The reason for his sudden exclamation was that Satori seemed to have grown tired of destroying buildings and residential areas. He now flew towards the Hokage Rock and charged up a Chakra Ball!
"This guy… he is going to destroy the Hokage Rock!" exclaimed Tsunade-hime in anger.
The Hokage Rock held immense significance for Konoha. It was not merely a rock with a few faces carved on a mountain; it represented Konoha's spirit, backbone, and pride. By destroying the Hokage Rock, Satori would crush the spirit of most of the Konoha Shinobi at once!
Elder Hiruzen and Tsunade-hime weren't the only ones who realized the gravity of this situation. Many other shinobi on the ground also noticed the impending threat. However, they could do nothing but watch in despair, unable to prevent the impending destruction.
…
On one of the high-rise buildings in Konoha, Sandaime Tsuchikage Ōnoki and his entourage, as well as Godaime Kazekage Pakura and her entourage, watched Satori charging up a Chakra ball as he faced the faces of the five Hokage carved on the Hokage Rock.
Ōnoki looked at everything with a gloating expression, “If the Hokage Rock is destroyed by that monster, the spirit of Konoha shinobi will be crushed!”
He wasn't unhappy with the events unfolding tonight. His Iwagakure had suffered terribly at the hands of Akatsuki not long ago, and now, as he watched Konoha also suffer, he couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. Despite being allies, Ōnoki inexplicably felt happy tonight. Internally, he even hoped that Amatsukami wouldn’t appear, and Konoha would suffer even more.
In this way, he wouldn't be embarrassed anymore, as it wouldn't just be Iwagakure, but even Konohagakure lacked enough power to protect itself.
Unaware of Ōnoki's thoughts, Deidara, full of confidence, eagerly said, "Old man… let me fight that monster. I am going to create beautiful art from that ugly creature!"
Ōnoki chuckled, "Konoha itself is not in a hurry to request our help to fight that monster. Why are you in such a rush to fight that thing? Just stay here quietly."
"Damn you!" gritted Deidara, frustrated by the denial. He really wanted to fight that creature.
Unlike Ōnoki, Pakura looked at the floating monster with a worried expression as she thought to herself, ‘Kuroto-sama… if you don't send someone to stop that thing, Konoha is going to suffer too much damage…'
Just as Pakura had this thought, suddenly, a change occurred, and her worries disappeared, "Finally!"
…
Just as the crowd was filled with anger, anxiety, and helplessness as they watched Satori wreak havoc and about to destroy Konoha's spiritual support, suddenly, a figure appeared on top of the head of Godaime Hokage.
Whoosh!
A gust of wind blew past, fluttering the Hokage Haori he was wearing. He looked at the incoming Satori and spoke with a cold demeanor, “Millions were spent by Yui to carve my head here! Do you think I will allow you to put even a small crack on this?”
Apparently, it was none other than Godaime Hokage, Hyuga Kuroto's Shadow Clone, who appeared on top of the Hokage's head.
“Kuroto?!” muttered Elder Hiruzen in surprise as he stared at the figure of Kuroto. However, his anxiety did not disappear because he didn’t think Kuroto had any method of stopping Satori’s rampage.
But other Konoha shinobi were different from Elder Hiruzen.
As soon as they noticed the arrival of Kuroto, hope rekindled in their hearts, and they cheered excitedly.
“It’s Godaime-sama!” “Great… Hokage-sama has arrived, he will definitely stop that thing!” “Hokage-sama, you must defeat that monster!”
…
Hearing all the cheers, Ōnoki thought to himself, “Hey… isn't that Hyuga Kuroto? Is he in such a hurry to die?”
At this time, Pakura suddenly asked Ōnoki, “Say, Tsuchikage-dono, what do you think? Will Hokage-dono be able to stop that monster?”
Ōnoki chuckled and remained silent. Although he did not explicitly say it, the meaning was clear. He did not think that Hyuga Kuroto had the strength or means to defeat that monster.
Sure, Hyuga Kuroto is quick-witted; however, wit can only take you so far. What will wit do against someone who can literally read your heart and intentions?
…
On top of the Hokage Rock, standing on the head of Godaime Hokage, Kuroto saw Satori drawing nearer and stared at it with a determined grin, “In the name of Konohagakure’s Godaime Hokage, I must stop you!”
He raised his hand and began weaving the hand signs, uttering, ‘Ryūmyaku Chakra Mode!’
ROAR!
Instantly, uncontrollable Ryūmyaku Chakra surged out of the Gourd tied at his waist, taking the form of an Eastern Dragon with a purple hue. The dragon let out a resounding roar that echoed throughout the village before diving into Kuroto. It wrapped itself around him, transforming into a Chakra Cloak.
