Chapter 328: Beneath The Hokage Rock, Just A Pile Of Shit
“Protect Uzumaki Remnants?” Uchiha Madara glanced at the unconscious Nagato, then looked at Uchiha Kane and said:
“I didn’t expect you to know some of Konoha Village’s secrets. It seems that proud Uchiha Clan from back then has already been tainted by Konoha’s stench.
I have no interest whatsoever in the current Konoha. It’s a village on the verge of death.
A village that is completely dead, without ideals, without a future.
Under the Hokage Rock, it’s nothing but a pile of shit.
After Senju Hashirama died, I lost all interest in Konoha.
Instead, it’s you all who keep coming to harass me time and again.
The first time was Danzo Shimura, the second was Jiraiya, and the third is you.
You traitors who dare to use the same clan emblem as me, you don’t think I’ll show any clan sentiment and spare you, do you?”
Uchiha Madara actually called the current Konoha a pile of shit. So lacking in class.
He cursed Konoha Village, yet no one on site dared to retort.
Yoru knew Uchiha Madara’s plan, so he kept exploiting Nagato, the point that Uchiha Madara absolutely had to save.
Uchiha Madara was probably numb inside. He had poked Konoha’s hornet’s nest, and they kept coming after him.
Uchiha Madara clapped his hands together.
“Wood Style: Deep Forest Emergence!”
Seeing Uchiha Madara make his move, Yoru felt unusually tense inside.
To avoid the village suspecting him of killing Lynx, he struck at Lynx before clashing with Uchiha Madara.
This way, absolutely no one would suspect Lynx’s death had anything to do with him.
He had used up this month’s resurrection times, so he had to be even more careful.
Yoru didn’t rush forward immediately, but waited for Uchiha Kane and the others’ actions.
This investigation of Uchiha Madara was mainly led by the Uchiha Clan anyway.
The Uchiha Clan had the obligation to kill their old clan head.
Just as Kiiroinu had instructed, he expected Uchiha Kane and Uchiha Madara to slaughter each other.
The woods suddenly grew wildly, thick tree trunks surrounding the Konoha Shinobi.
Uchiha Kane hurriedly commanded his clansmen: “Everyone, use Fire Release!”
4 jonin and 8 special jonin unleashed 12 massive Great Fireball Techniques.
Great Fireball after Great Fireball, each with a diameter of over ten meters.
The reconnaissance squad looked toward Fox Captain.
They didn’t know if the village wanted to stand by and watch Uchiha Madara and the Uchiha Clan fight it out, or to help quickly.
Yoru pointed at Nagato Uzumaki and said:
“Snatch the Uzumaki Remnants! Then we’ll know what Uchiha Madara’s conspiracy is. What Uchiha Madara is protecting is what we need to sabotage!”
Aries Squad, Flower Deer Squad, and the reconnaissance squad—three squads immediately moved out, bypassing the Wood Style and Fire Style battlefield, charging toward the White Zetsu on the side.
Nagato, Yahiko, and Konan were protected in the center by a group of White Zetsu.
White Zetsu saw the incoming Konoha Anbu and thought, this is bad.
“What do we do? Those Konoha Anbu look pretty strong.”
“We’re only a few dozen; we’re no match for the Konoha Anbu.”
“Let’s call some reinforcements, how about three hundred?”
From underground, from the trees, one White Zetsu after another emerged.
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki had once hung tens of thousands from her era on the Divine Tree, turning them into White Zetsu.
In the original story, Obito cultivated and split tens of thousands of White Zetsu into a hundred thousand.
Summoning three hundred White Zetsu now was nothing to the White Zetsu army.
Yoru formed a seal.
Water Severing Wave!
A thin water line shot out abruptly, sweeping across and slicing open over a hundred White Zetsu.
One technique reduced the White Zetsu by a third.
The White Zetsu were exceptionally surprised.
“This level of Water Style is second only to Senju Tobirama, right?”
Yoru hurriedly ordered: “Use combination ninjutsu! Clear a path for me to charge in!”
Aries and Flower Deer each commanded; their most proficient Wind-Fire Combination Ninjutsu appeared.
The Wind-Fire Combination Ninjutsu ignored the rainwater, killing dozens of White Zetsu and clearing a path.
The dense White Zetsu figures vanished, and Yoru saw Nagato.
He body flickered forward.
The White Zetsu felt a black shadow flash by, only then turning to look toward Nagato in the rear.
Yoru body flickered right in front of Nagato.
Nagato was unconscious.
Yahiko’s hand had just been raised halfway, Konan’s eyes just widening in terror.
At that moment, Yoru sensed a terrifying disturbance from the side.
Wood Dragon Technique came whistling in!
Yoru hurriedly leaped up.
The Wood Dragon could absorb chakra, turning the enemy’s chakra into its own nourishment, making the Wood Dragon longer, thicker, and tougher.
If caught by the Wood Dragon, it would be trouble; even the chakra in Absolute Defense Copper Light might get absorbed.
The Uchiha were giving Uchiha Madara too little pressure; he could still attend to both battlefields.
The Wood Dragon’s claw grabbed from above.
Yoru formed a seal and used Water Severing Wave again.
The water line shot out, slicing off the Wood Dragon’s claw!
Yoru was at least a weak Kage level now; the power of Water Style: Water Severing Wave was extremely strong.
Uchiha Madara saw the Anbu Captain’s strength was so great and became slightly interested.
He waved his hand, and from the tree hollow behind him, a white figure stepped out.
Reconnaissance ninja Hyuga Yue saw the figure behind Uchiha and shouted in shock and doubt: “Heinosuke Sarutobi?”
In the next instant, he was somewhat confused: “Heinosuke Sarutobi has a double swirl mask; this person’s face has no eye holes, only twisted wood vines.
Not Heinosuke Sarutobi? Could it be another of Uchiha Madara’s subordinates?”
Yoru thought, this is bad; it was the most special Vortex White Zetsu among the White Zetsu, also the later Tobi.
Tobi was hollow inside; under that swirl mask was an empty cavity.
Tobi charged straight at Yoru, protecting Nagato Uzumaki.
Wood Style: Thorn Technique!
A wooden spear shot toward Yoru; Yoru let the wooden spear hit his chest.
The wooden spear split open before Bronze Light, the spear tip shattering, unable to pierce Yoru’s chest.
Yoru feared the Wood Dragon Technique, but not the Thorn Technique.
Seeing Thorn Technique ineffective, Tobi rushed over to clash with Yoru in taijutsu.
Tobi’s taijutsu was very strong, very fast; with his obstruction, Yoru couldn’t reach Nagato in the short term.
Uchiha Madara glanced at the two Uchiha corpses in the Deep Forest Emergence and said:
“Uchiha Kane, do you believe it now? I won’t go easy on you. The only similarity between you and me is a surname.”
In the heavy rain, Uchiha Kane was drenched in sweat.
Sweat and rain indistinguishable, constantly dripping from his chin.
Uchiha Madara was too strong!
Deep Forest Emergence covered a huge area; unknowingly, they were surrounded by wildly growing massive trees.
One misstep, and a thick, tough tree trunk could crush them.
Uchiha Kane looked toward the massive Wood Dragon on the side; it was still thanks to Fox Captain drawing the Wood Dragon’s attention, or with that terrifying Wood Dragon added, they’d die even faster.
Disadvantage, massive disadvantage.
Who could have thought a seventy-something Uchiha Madara would have such terrifying chakra amount.
In the chaos, Uchiha Suiju kept dodging nonstop; proficient in Body Flicker Technique, he leaped between tree trunks, eyes everywhere, not trapped by the tree trunks.
He occasionally observed Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Kane, Uchiha Touka, and the Anbu Fox’s battles.
He now had another identity, as Danzo Advisor’s spy, Root’s Yi.
Uchiha Suiju judged in his mind:
Uchiha Kane was no match for Uchiha Madara; the gap between them was huge, Fire Release no match for Wood Style;
Barring accidents, the traitor ninja chase and kill team would all die here···
