Capítulo 59: Appearance
Boom!
The last rumble of the collapsing tunnels echoed like distant thunder, and then... silence.
Luo Lei's fiery vision extinguished, leaving behind a landscape transformed by destruction.
Where once there was solid ground, now stretched a smoking scar.
The Konoha camp and the Iwagakure army's gathering area were plunged into silence.
On Konoha's side, cold sweat beaded on the ninjas' foreheads. Their eyes, wide open, reflected astonishment and horror.
Many were paralyzed.
"Impossible..." whispered a jōnin, his voice barely audible. "This... this goes beyond any known jutsu."
Others simply remained silent, their minds blank, overwhelmed by the demonstration of power they had just witnessed.
On Iwagakure's side, the scene was even grimmer. The ninjas' faces were pale, marked by terror.
This was the terror of facing something incomprehensible.
"Our comrades..." muttered a chūnin, breaking down. "All of them... underground..."
Luo Lei had not just attacked; he had annihilated. He had cruelly turned the tunnels, the product of months of planning and effort, into tombs for hundreds of Iwagakure ninjas.
"Even those who weren't directly hit..." Akatsuchi's voice trembled as he spoke. "The collapse... no one could have survived that."
"Excellent!" Luo Lei's satisfied voice cut through the silence.
His X-ray eyes scanned the devastated terrain, confirming that all the catacombs had collapsed.
A smile of satisfaction crossed his face. It was the first time he had used his thermal vision at full power for an extended period, and the results exceeded his expectations.
Only a handful of ninjas had managed to escape.
"Is this... Luo Lei-sama's true strength?" The question, barely a whisper, spread among the Konoha ninjas.
Gradually, the shinobi began to emerge from their stupor, the magnitude of what they had just witnessed slowly settling in their minds.
"Iwagakure... they've been wiped off the map," someone murmured. "They won't even have graves..."
Jiraiya, with a complex expression on his battle-hardened face, let out a deep sigh. His gaze fixed on Luo Lei's back, "The title of God Killer no longer does him justice..."
"Indeed," nodded Shikaku, his eyes shining with new understanding. "If Luo Lei really ends this war today, then he is, without doubt, the undisputed god of the ninja."
"God of the ninja?" The phrase fell like a bomb among Konoha's high-ranking officers. Minato, Inoichi, and Chōza exchanged looks of amazement.
The implication was clear and terrifying: Shikaku was suggesting that Luo Lei could rival legendary figures like Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju.
"Is it really possible?" Minato wondered.
But to everyone's surprise, Luo Lei's voice, laden with disdain, cut through their reflections.
"God of the ninja? Nah, I only aspire to be the Homelander of the Hidden Leaf Village," he said with a twisted smile. "Let Madara and Hashirama fight over that title."
Caught off guard, Shikaku could only offer an awkward smile before falling into an embarrassed silence.
His attempt to flatter Luo Lei had failed spectacularly, revealing that Luo Lei had little interest in the grandiose titles that others might covet.
"Prepare for battle!" Luo Lei's voice resonated throughout the camp. "It seems the Five-Tails Jinchūriki has completely lost control."
He had barely finished speaking when a wave of monstrous chakra erupted from the depths of the earth.
The ground began to shake violently, cracks opening in all directions.
Suddenly, in an explosion of rock and earth, a colossal figure emerged.
The Five-Tails, in all its majesty, rose before them. Its body, pure white and brilliant, seemed to merge the grace of a dolphin with the strength of a horse. Its skin shimmered as if made of condensed vapor, changing and undulating with every movement.
Five tails, long and sinuous, waved behind it. Each seemed to have a life of its own, leaving trails of chakra in the air.
The Five-Tails opened its mouth and let out a roar that shook the heavens.
Han no longer struggled to contain the beast. His body had completely fused with the Five-Tails, his human consciousness drowned in a sea of bestial anger.
Burning steam constantly emanated from the Five-Tails' body, creating a scorching mist around it.
Boom!
Han's complete transformation into the Five-Tails violently shook the earth.
"ATTACK!" The battle cry resonated among the ranks of Iwagakure, breaking the stupor they had fallen into.
"Brothers, rise up! Let's avenge our fallen comrades!" A jōnin's voice rose above the chaos, laden with pain and determination.
"KILL! WE MUST KILL ALL THE KONOHA NINJAS!" The collective roar of hundreds of throats mixed with the bestial bellow of the Five-Tails.
As if a switch had been flipped, the Iwagakure army, moments before paralyzed by shock and horror, came to life with renewed ferocity.
The wave of chakra emanating from the Five-Tails acted as a catalyst.
Shibito, Rōshi, Sumashi, and the other leaders took the front, their eyes burning with fierce determination. The anger they had been suppressing now manifested as killing intent.
"REVENGE!" The silent cry resonated in every mind, in every heart. "Let Konoha's blood pay for our fallen."
Swish! Swish!
In an instant, the leaders of Iwagakure launched themselves towards the Konoha camp.
Rōshi, sensing the imminent battle, closed his eyes for a moment. A silent communication passed between him and the Four-Tails sealed within him.
When he opened them again, they were full of fire.
With a roar, his body began to transform. His skin turned an intense red, his human form expanding and twisting until, in its place, stood a colossal fire orangutan.
The Yonbi, in all its terrifying glory, stood tall.
"ROOOOAAR!" Its roar made the earth tremble, waves of burning chakra spreading in all directions.
"KILL! DESTROY!" The war cry rose among the ranks of Iwagakure, their hearts inflamed by the sight of not one, but two Bijū on their side.
The fighting spirit, which moments before had been crushed by Luo Lei's display of power, now resurfaced with monstrous intensity.
Every Iwagakure ninja felt they could, they must, fight to the last breath.
Shibito, observing the transformation of his army from a defeated force to a war machine, couldn't help but feel a surge of relief and pride.
"Perfect," he murmured, his eyes shining with a dangerous light. "Konoha thinks they've defeated us, but this... this is just the beginning."

The roar of the Five-Tails resonated across the battlefield, making the earth tremble beneath the feet of the Konoha ninjas. Jiraiya, Shikaku, Minato, and the other leaders exchanged worried glances.
"This is bad," Jiraiya muttered. "The Five-Tails is completely out of control."
Shikaku nodded. "Han, the Jinchūriki, must have been sent in secret."
The Five-Tails' blood-injected eyes scanned the Konoha camp, finally stopping on Luo Lei. The heat emanating from the ninja's eyes seemed to attract the beast like a magnet.
With a roar that shook the heavens, the Five-Tails launched itself towards Luo Lei, driven by a thirst for revenge.
Crash!
Luo Lei, however, remained impassive. With a sigh that sounded almost bored, he murmured: "Why do you think I didn't attack you before? Sit down and learn your place."
Whoosh!
In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from his position. The air seemed to distort from the speed of his movement. Before anyone could even register what was happening, he reappeared in front of the Five-Tails, his fist already in motion.
Boom!
The impact was devastating. With a force exceeding 500 tons, Luo Lei's fist connected with the Bijū's head.
The sound of the blow was like thunder.
Taken by surprise, the Five-Tails had no time to react. The force of the blow sent it flying backward, crashing into the ground with an impact that created a crater more than 50 meters deep.
"ROOOOOAR!" A roar of pain and fury emerged from the crater, making the earth tremble.
The Five-Tails, though made of chakra, felt every fiber of its being resonate with the pain of the blow.
But Luo Lei wasn't finished.
Whoosh!
Without giving the beast time to recover, he launched himself towards the crater. He grabbed one of the Bijū's tails and dragged it out of the hole as if it weighed no more than a feather.
With a quick movement, he spun the Five-Tails over his head and threw it to the ground with tremendous force.
Boom!
The impact created another crater, even larger than the previous one, raising a cloud of dust and debris that momentarily obscured the battlefield.
"GROOOAAR!" The Five-Tails, now completely maddened by humiliation and pain, roared with a fury that made the air itself vibrate.
Chakra began to accumulate in its mouth, forming a sphere of black and dense energy: a Bijūdama.
Luo Lei observed the formation of the technique with an amused smile. "A Bijūdama?"
In an instant, he teleported in front of the Five-Tails, just as the beast fired its most powerful attack.
"Go to hell!" roared the Bijū, releasing the Bijūdama directly against Luo Lei.
Booooom!
The explosion that followed was blinding. A shockwave spread across the battlefield, causing even the approaching Iwagakure ninjas to struggle to maintain balance.
When the dust and residual energy dissipated, all eyes fixed on the point of impact, expecting to see the destruction caused by the Bijū's most powerful attack.
But there, in the midst of the devastation, Luo Lei stood, completely unharmed. Not even a scratch marked his skin and not a wrinkle in his clothes.
"Shit..." The word escaped from the lips of a Konoha ninja.
The eyes of the Konoha shinobi, already dilated by the shock of previous events, now seemed about to pop out of their sockets.
The appearance of the Five-Tails had sown fear in their hearts; after all, a Bijū was considered the ultimate weapon in any war. But what they were witnessing defied all logic and expectation.
The Five-Tails, that legendary beast of unimaginable power, had been slammed against the ground like a rag doll. And now, its Bijūdama, capable of razing entire mountains, had been resisted by Luo Lei without even a visible scratch.
A surreal thought began to form in the minds of the spectators: Was Luo Lei the true beast of immeasurable power, and the Five-Tails a mere imitation?
The Bijū, still stunned by the futility of its most powerful attack, emitted a whimper of confusion and fear. "No... it's not possible..."
A playful smile drew on Luo Lei's face. "Hehe, now it's my turn."
Whoosh!
In an instant, Luo Lei became a blurry streak, moving at a speed that the human eye could barely follow.
The Konoha ninjas on the spot and the Iwagakure ninja troops that had already arrived witnessed a scene that made their scalps tingle.
Boom!
The sounds of brutal impacts filled the air, each accompanied by a roar of pain from the Five-Tails. Luo Lei moved around the Bijū like lightning, his legs connecting with the beast's body in a series of devastating kicks.
Each impact sent shockwaves through the air, creating small sonic explosions.
Parts of the Five-Tails' body flew through the air with each kick, disintegrating into chakra particles before rapidly reforming.
"GROOOOAR!" The Bijū's agonizing roars resonated throughout the battlefield.
Luo Lei moved with the grace and precision of Ronaldo Nazario, his body spinning and pivoting as he continued his relentless assault.
"CRACK!" A particularly brutal kick connected with the Bijū's jaw, sending a shower of giant teeth flying through the air.
"THUD!" Another impacted the beast's side, creating a visible shockwave that deformed its massive body.
