Chapter 86: Killing Each Other
🕑 Added 2025-05-20 14:44:17 +0000 UTC"What's that sound?!" A Konoha ninja who was maintaining the barrier looked back and saw the scene of Minato and Danzo fighting.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" the Konoha ninja screamed and turned around to help the Fourth Hokage.
"Asshole, maintain the barrier!" A ninja nearby saw this and shouted angrily.
However, his reminder was too late.
Sniff sniff sniff --
Dozens of figures in black robes rushed out from the surroundings and drilled into the gap in the barrier where the ninja left his post.
"Swish." The blade flashed, and a trace of pity flashed in the eyes of the man wielding the blade, but the blade in his hand still chopped off the head of the Konoha ninja.
"Damn it, why are so many enemies able to get close to here." A Konoha Jonin cursed angrily and stepped forward to fight.
However, how could the ninjas who were specifically responsible for the barrier be a match for these ninjas who had switched to combat and assassination when they were outnumbered?
A barrier ninja rushed forward, and just as he came into contact with an enemy, he felt a little dazed.
Then, he discovered that his opponent actually had a pair of Sharingan, and the next moment, his neck was pierced.
This man had an expression of hatred on his face, but he could no longer see that his opponent had no Sharingan. Those Sharingans were just illusions he saw when he was caught in the illusion.
More than a dozen Konoha ninjas suffered heavy casualties with just one contact. In just over ten seconds, ten of them died under the enemy's siege.
"Chi! Bang!" A red flare shot into the sky, exploding into three dazzling fireworks.
"Hurry up and solve it, village...Konoha's support will arrive in ten minutes at most." said one of the men in black robes.
Then, seeing that the remaining five jonin were really difficult to deal with, he called out to a black-robed man with a cat-face mask not far away.
"Cat, attack with me." After saying that, he spread his arms, and a swarm of black insects emerged from the wide cuffs of his black robe.
"Secret Insect Technique?!" The jonin in front of the barrier was shocked.
Then he felt dazed for a moment, and when he came to his senses, his body was covered with bugs, and he and another companion had stabbed their kunai into each other's hearts.
"Ahem... this is the Mountain's Heart-shaking Enbu..." The jonin coughed up blood with a look of disbelief and unwillingness on his face.
"You...Masaka..."
Before he could finish his words, there was a flash of a knife, and the sharp blade chopped off the heads of him and his other Jonin companions.
"... Pack up the heads of these guys and take them away." Aburame Ryoma looked at the unwilling eyes of the senior ninja, was silent for a moment, and then gave orders to others.
Konoha has the Yamanaka clan who can read minds, so those who see them using secret techniques cannot leave their heads behind.
"Let's go and support the Master."
A few people were left to deal with the corpses, while the others rushed towards the battlefield between Danzo and Minato Namikaze.
There were more than twenty people in total, eight of whom stopped after approaching a range of more than 20 meters, quickly adjusted their positions, and formed seals at the same time.
"Buzz——" The purple barrier formed an inner and outer layer with the eight of them as nodes, covering the place.
"Is this the Four Purple Yang Formation?!" Namikaze Minato was shocked and frowned.
He was not surprised at how powerful the barrier was or how much of an impact it had on him, but he was surprised that this barrier was Konoha's exclusive barrier technique.
However, there were more surprises to come.
The Yamanaka clan's spiritual secrets, the Nara clan's shadow secrets, and the Aburame clan's insect secrets. In addition to these three secrets, there are several other ninjutsu unique to Konoha.
In a small space, there are many enemies. Shadow magic harasses and oppresses Minato's space for movement, insect magic disrupts Minato's battle rhythm, and spiritual magic is a sure-kill.
Namikaze Minato was very powerful. Even if he lost the Flying Thunder God Technique, he was still the strongest fighter in Konoha. Under the siege of many secret techniques and Root members, he fought back and forth.
But, after all, he is just one person, and one flaw can lead to his irreparable destruction.
When he kicked another enemy away, Minato froze and looked down, and a shadow connected to him.
"Puff!" The sharp kunai pierced through the chest.
"It really took me a while, Fourth Hokage." Danzo said coldly as he turned his arm, stirring Minato's internal organs, and then pulled them out.
Namikaze Minato's body fell onto the water with an expression of unwillingness.
Danzo looked down at the corpse of the Fourth Hokage, and he didn't know what kind of feeling he had in his heart. There was excitement, pleasure, anxiety, and sighs.
He raised his hand, ready to have his subordinates take over the Four Purple Sun Formation. However, he suddenly felt something was wrong. He leaned over, stretched out his hand and pressed on Minato Namikaze's body, pouring chakra into his body.
"Bang!" Minato Namikaze's body turned into white smoke of chakra and dissipated in an instant.
"Shadow Clone Technique?!" Danzo was shocked.
Before he could react, he saw Minato Namikaze rushing out of the white smoke, and a Rasengan hit his mask hard.
"Crack--bang!" The Rasengan easily shattered the mask, revealing Danzo's true face, and then instantly blew up Danzo's head.
"Danzo..." The moment the mask shattered, Minato Namikaze could still see the appearance of the masked man clearly.
"Lord Danzo!" the surrounding Root ninjas screamed.
"It's all over. If you surrender now, I can still treat you leniently." Namikaze Minato said to the Root ninjas around him.
But immediately afterwards, Minato Namikaze felt a pain in his heart.
"Yes, it's over." Danzo's voice came from behind Minato Namikaze.
Same posture, even the same wound, but this will be Minato Namikaze's real body.
Minato Namikaze turned his head and looked at Danzo in disbelief, then looked in the direction of Danzo's body, but found that there was no body there.
Shadow clone?
But that's not right. The reason why he was still able to maintain the existence of his shadow clone after his heart was pierced was because the shadow clone's brain still retained its thinking ability and forcibly maintained its form.
But the Rasengan he just used blew Danzo's head into pieces, so there was no way he could maintain the form of a shadow clone.
I don’t understand. I can’t figure it out.
