"Boom--!"
Another earth-shattering collision echoed through the battlefield as Ai and Tobirama resumed their intense fight.
Tobirama's strength surpassed that of the current Sarutobi. He inherited the formidable power of the Senju clan, boasting physical prowess akin to Tsunade's incredible strength and an unconventional chakra.
In the annals of the older generation's powerhouses, only Hashirama and Madara possessed the unbreakable might, a strength Tobirama replicated.
Despite Ai's initial unexpected moves, Tobirama could employ his water release ninjutsu to dominate Ai, bombarding him relentlessly. With the added advantage of Flying Thunder God, illusions, and unbeatable perception, Ai's physical skills posed little threat.
Despite appearances, Ai struggled under the pressure, attempting to suppress Tobirama while sensing the imminent threat of being overwhelmed by Tobirama's tsunami-like offensive if he weakened his attacks. The fear lingered that once Tobirama broke free, the Cloud Ninja army might face dire consequences.
While Tobirama remained composed, Ai grew increasingly anxious, contemplating a direct retreat. Truly, Hokage Tobirama's sharp mind and prowess exceeded even the future golden flash.
In a parallel encounter, Cloud Ninja's second-in-command, C, faced Danzo, and the situation favored C.
C's strength rivaled Ai's, with a physique and chakra more formidable. Although lacking in experience, C's potential surpassed even the current Ai.
An azure meteor tore across the battlefield, claiming the lives of numerous Konoha ninjas with no opposition. Swift wind slashes attempted to catch C's lightning-fast movements but failed, leaving long, narrow ravines in their wake.
"Hell Stab, Three Fingers!"
With a resounding shout, C transformed into a thunderbolt, charging towards the densest group of Konoha ninjas. Panic ensued as the Konoha ninjas attempted to escape, but C effortlessly pierced through their ranks, leaving a trail of blood and chaos. Lightning explosions scattered the unfortunate souls in the air, reducing them to pieces.
Rain fell, failing to wash away the pungent scent of blood as Konoha ninjas, terrified, involuntarily retreated from the gruesome scene.
"Asshole!"
Danzo, witnessing the carnage, couldn't hide his fury. His eyes locked onto C, but his trembling sword revealed his inability to confront C, just like when facing Uchiha Kagami. Danzo recognized that, despite being a kage-level ninja, he was no match for the recklessness displayed by the man before him.
His strength is on par with Uchiha Kagami, and he excels in Wind Release, which can restrain Danzo and pose some threats to him.
However, having learned lessons from Uchiha Kagami, Danzo harbors a faint fear in his heart!
Tobirama is nearby; Danzo grits his teeth, gives a low growl, and charges again.
Unbeknownst to him, a few Anbu elites silently follow to assist.
"Hahaha, you're Tobirama's disciple, aren't you? I remember your name is Shimura Danzo."
C grins, wiping the blood splattered on his face, observing the Wind Release ninja before him.
Well, though not as skilled as me, it may prove challenging to defeat him.
People around him are assisting, trying to hold me back, much like the routine with Uchiha Kagami.
"I don't have time to fight you now; we'll settle this later!"
C sneers and rushes towards Konoha ninja again. Unlike Uchiha Kagami, Danzo lacks the Sharingan illusion that could restrict C!
"Damn! Stop!"
Danzo roars angrily. His body is entangled with wind chakra, and as the blue light circulates, he enters the Wind Chakra Mode.
"Wind Release: Vacuum Shaving!"
Finally catching up with C, who is accelerating frantically, Danzo, with a backhand, grasps the tachi, and a slender and incredibly sharp wind chakra slashes into C's back!
"Well?!"
C's expression changes; he feels a burning pain on his back. He reaches back and finds his own blood!
Danzo's Wind Release has broken through the Lightning Release defense unexpectedly, catching C off guard.
"Hehe, your speed surpasses Uchiha Kagami's, but do you have enough strength to face me?"
"Hehe, you'll find out when you try. This time, you'll definitely lose. In this war, your Cloud Ninja will only lose to us Konoha!"
Danzo takes a deep breath, displaying a grim smile.
He taunts his opponent, provoking a reaction.
"Damn! Die!"
Danzo's taunting seems to work; electric light on C's body bursts violently, the electric cocoon jumps wildly, rushing directly at Danzo with a punch!
"Oops!"
Danzo looks at the serious C with twitching eyelids. Is this the monster Uchiha Kagami faced?
The surprise attack by Konoha on Cloud Ninja wasn't overwhelming in numbers, and when Tobirama appeared, a golden torrent overwhelmed Cloud Ninja's formation.
But C is proving to be a formidable adversary. If they can't find a way to deal with him, Konoha's advantage will be greatly diminished.
The blue light on Danzo's body intensifies. He sticks his knife into the ground, hands forming seals quickly.
"Wind Release: Vacuum Continuous Waves!"
Danzo inhales deeply and exhales razor-sharp scythes. Several winds intertwine, blocking C's path and threatening to slice through his chakra and flesh simultaneously!
"Humph!"
C snorts coldly, placing both hands in front of him. The thunderbolt on his body seems to solidify into a protective barrier.
"Yddium-ydium-ydium-ydium-ydium!"
Like the harsh sound of cutting steel plates, the vacuum waves shatter C's body, scattering light across the sky!
"What?!"
Danzo wears an expression of disbelief. No one should withstand this ninjutsu head-on, especially not using Lightning Release!
"Go to hell!"
Despite several slender bloodstains on C's arm, he seems unaffected by the pain. Breaking through the Wind Release blockade, he lands a punch on the stiffened Danzo!
"Pfft!"
Danzo transformed into a splintered piece of wood, but C didn't waste a moment and swiftly delivered a kick behind him.
"Lightning Release : Lightning Straight!"
"What? So fast!"
Danzo's figure had just materialized, catching C off guard. He hastily employed Wind Escape to defend.
"Wind Escape · Vacuum Jade!"
A colossal, blue-hued wind projectile shot forth. C chuckled, opting to kick it without evading or sidestepping!
Under normal circumstances, C might have sustained injuries, but Danzo's fate remained uncertain.
Yet, in this critical juncture, thick vines suddenly ensnared C, pulling him tightly!
"What?!"
C was startled. Though he swiftly broke free from the vines, his subsequent attack lacked fluidity, and his chakra significantly weakened.
"Boom!"
The forceful wind disrupted C's movements severely. He collided head-on and was sent flying a considerable distance.
