Close to the famous valley of the end, the place where the legendary battle between the god of shinobi and ghost of uchiha took place was the border of land of fire and land of hot water.
Swish!
Currently in the large plain ground that would come into sight right after crossing the border of land of hot war, the air was tense and dust rolled around due to the strong wind, under the dusty sky two huge armies stood face to face, the distance between the two merely a few hundred meters.
The Third Ninja World War had started and the first major battle between two great shinobi villages was about to take place, Kumogakure's armies that was advancing towards land of fire halting due to the appearance of konoha army, stopped right before they could enter land of fire.
BOOM!!!
Zzzzz!!!
Suddenly an explosion seems to take place from the kumo army as every konoha shinobi saw a blue light flashing that crossed the distance of hundreds of meters in an instant, a muscular man with blonde hair and green eyes completely surrounded by blue lightning appearing before them.
Damn! It's the Raikage!!
The konoha shinobi at the front recognized the man who attacked them immediately, cursing out in shock and fear.
The Third Raikage without a hint of mercy in his eyes raised his right arm high in order cut through the konoha shinobi before him but his eyes suddenly seem to notice something as he halted his movements and jumped back.
Zhuu!!
BOOM!!!
From within the konoha army a black stick with golden hoops at the both ends elongated to an abnormal length flashed out and hit the spot where the Raikage just was, creating a massive hole in the ground.
Swish!
Creating a hole in the ground, the black stick began to retract as a shadow flew out of the army and landed before the konoha army and the Raikage, donning an all-black armor with a black helmet covering his head aside from the face, the black stick with golden ends now a lot smaller in his grasp.
"Lord Third!"
Expressions of relief and excitement appeared on konoha shinobi's faces as they recognized the man in front immediately.
"So it's Third Hokage! But what about the current one? I thought he had more guts then any of you" Asked the Third Raikage in a joking manner, his green eyes fixed on Sarutobi at some distance from him.
"He will naturally appear when those under him can't handle the situation though I really don't see anyone capable around to do so"
Responded Sarutobi as he gave Raikage a harmless smile, whose grin stiffened at his words and his face darkened.
What Sarutobi was implying how could Raikage not understand. He clearly said that Raikage was not strong enough for the current hokage, Kazuki Aoyama to personally appear on the battlefield.
"Let me see what the infamous professor is truly made off"
Zzzz!!
Said the Raikage in a dangerous tone as next moment the lightning around him increased, like a bullet shooting towards Sarutobi.
HAAA!!!
With the fight between Third Raikage and Third Hokage starting, both armies also charged at each other as the soil that drank rain water all year long finally tasted what blood was like, red dying everything around.
BOOM!!!
Paper bombs exploded everywhere and ninjutsu collision only damaged the earth more, on the battlefield aside from the battle between Third Raikage and Third Hokage another two interesting battles taking place.
ROAR!!!!
Two huge beasts, one a blue cat with blue flames flickering around and having two tails and another with cow like face and eight tails like an octopus appeared suddenly on the battlefield shocking most of the shinobi on the battlefield.
Swish!
But just as Konoha Shinobi were worried, hope arrived as a man with silver hair and a short blade on his back and another with brown hair and two distinct blushes on his cheeks landed before the two beasts.
"It's Lord White Fang and Commander Nawaki!"
The konoha shinobi around the tailed beasts recognized the two who appeared to fight for konoha immediately, showing expressions of endless relief.
"If let loose they will annihilate most of our army in seconds, so let me put some shackles on them"
Said Nawaki who stood next to Sakumo, his eyes without a hint of fear in them stuck at the two tailed beasts before him.
"White Fang is the main threat so I'll create an opportunity for you, don't let it go to waste Bee"
The two tailed jinchuriki, Yugino who could perfectly control the power of two tails paid more attention to sakumo who was famous around the world and gave instructions to Killer Bee the jinchuriki of Eight Tails.
Thud!! Thud!!
Leaving instructions, the blue cat moved nimbly and rushed toward the two ant like figures compared to its size, jumping high in the air and crashing down on them.
BOOM!!!!
Swish! Swish!
Instantly both Sakumo and Nawaki jumped away as the two tails landed where they just stood, obliterating the ground completely.
"Say goodbye to your vision, like a forgotten tradition!" (Well maybe lame but it's really difficult to write the dialogue of Killer Bee, I'll keep trying)
But both Nawaki and Sakumo who had jumped away and were still mid-air suddenly showed a speechless look as the words of a rapper from Kumogakure fell in their ears, followed by black ink shot by the eight tails right appearing before them.
The black ink seemed to submerge the two completely as both the jinchuriki's controlling the tailed beast showed a victors' look though that didn't last for long.
Thup!! Thup!!!
Wood Style! Deep Forest Emergence!!
An area of hundred to two hundred meters began to shake suddenly as some shinobi who were battling suddenly lost their balance and toppled down.
The ground broke apart and numerous thick roots sprouted out and reached towards the sky, Yugino and Bee at this development completely stunned, unbelievable eyes on everything happening around them.
"Damn it!!! They are absorbing chakra!"
But they didn't even get much time to contemplate on what was happening as the thick roots ignoring every shinobi in the vicinity rushed towards the two massive tailed beasts coiling around them as a feeling of weakness hit both the jinchuriki the moment they were touched by the roots.
Just as Kumo and Konoha shinobi were engaged in a battle in the land of hot water, in the land of thunder where Kumogakure was located appeared someone who was the true reason behind this war.
While most shinobi had left for the war, some were still left behind as the village couldn't be left completely defenseless so the entrance was still guarded by two kumo jonin.
Thup! Thup!
The two kumo jonin who stood like a statue at the entrance suddenly frowned as sounds of footsteps fell in their ears, causing them to look ahead on the road that led to the entrance.
"He…
"It's Him!!!"
The sound gradually got louder as finally a figure appeared before the two kumo jonin who seemed to have recognized him immediately, looking at him with shock and fear in eyes.
Before them was a man with long red hair, donning an orange kimono and with earrings in his ears, a sword with a black cross guard fixed on his waist.
