Capítulo 56: I also have to release my fire...
Anger burned like an uncontrolled fire, consuming everything in its path.
The impulse of the Konoha Camp transformed into something monstrous.
Thousands of Konoha ninjas erupted into a storm of killer intent and battle thirst. The air vibrated with their collective fury, a force so intense it could be felt even miles away.
Whoosh!
The sky itself seemed to react. The dark clouds that had covered the firmament dissipated, as if fleeing from the ferocity emanating from the camp.
Three kilometers away, Black Zetsu emerged stealthily from the ground, his eyes wide open with amazement as he contemplated the spectacle before him.
The Konoha camp, once a quiet spot on the horizon, now pulsed with a monstrous aura.
"How is this possible?" he murmured in disbelief.
How could the Konoha ninjas be so united, so synchronized in their fury? It was something he didn't understand.
But then, like a dark shadow crossing his mind, the memory of Luo Lei imposed itself. Zetsu felt a pang of pain in what passed for his head.
"That damned Luo Lei," A mixture of frustration and fear coloring his thoughts. "I was just watching Obito, following the plan as always. How could I have provoked him without realizing it?"
A shiver ran through his dark form as he considered how close he had been to destruction. If he hadn't acted quickly, another of his clones would have perished.

Two kilometers from the Konoha camp, the air vibrated with a palpable tension.
Thousands of Iwagakure troops had gathered, their ranks led by figures: Shibito, Rōshi, Sumashi, Akatsuchi, and Gari.
Suddenly, a wave of ominous energy hit their senses, emanating from the Konoha camp.
"What the hell is that?" Akatsuchi murmured, his eyes widening.
Sumashi narrowed his eyes, "It's coming from the Konoha camp.... What madness has been unleashed there to generate such a terrifying fighting spirit?"
"I-It can't be," Gari intervened, his face a mask of concern. "Could they have discovered us?"
Doubt spread through the ranks. If it weren't for the certainty that their secret troops were still hidden in the tunnel, they would have sworn that Konoha had discovered their plan.
Sumashi, after a moment of reflection, frowned deeply. "Something's not right in the Konoha camp. Should we continue with the plan?"
"Of course we go ahead!" Rōshi's voice resonated with determination. "Everything is prepared. There's no turning back now."
Gari nodded, his gaze fixed on the direction of the enemy camp. "Whatever is happening in Konoha, it can't affect our resolution. We've worked too hard to gather this morale in Iwagakure. We can't falter now."
"Wait!" Shibito's voice cut through their words.
His eyes gleamed with coldness as he gave the order, "As soon as Han gives the attack signal, we'll advance with all our strength. We'll destroy the Konoha army once and for all."
"Understood!" The chorus of assents resonated among the leaders.
The atmosphere became even more charged with tension.
Everyone was aware that victory or defeat would be decided in an instant. The months of preparation, the exhausting work of digging tunnels under the constant threat of being discovered by Konoha's sensors, all culminated in this moment.
'This battle can only end in victory,' Shibito thought, his determination reflected in his eyes, 'There's no room for defeat.'

Barely 800 meters from the Konoha camp, an underground tunnel eight meters in diameter snaked.
The air was dense, laden with humidity and the palpable tension of a covert operation.
In this precisely created passageway, Iwagakure ninjas advanced cautiously. Equipped with special devices that allowed them to remain underground for prolonged periods.
Every ten meters, a faint light flickered in the darkness. These were the lighting equipment specially designed by Iwagakure for underground operations.
Next to these lights, specialized ninjas kept barrier jutsu active, creating a barrier that concealed their chakra and muffled any sound they might make.
At the front of the formation, an imposing figure led the advance. Han, the Five-Tails Jinchūriki with his bright red armor.
White steam constantly emanated from his body, creating an ethereal mist around him.
"Haven't the Konoha ninjas detected us yet?" Han's voice, though low, resonated with a hint of disdain under his mask.
His eyes, visible through the slits, gleamed with anticipation. "I'll launch the attack two hundred meters from the camp. We'll take them completely by surprise."
A cruel smile formed on his lips, hidden by the mask. "Then, I'll use a Bijudama against the camp. That will be the signal for Iwagakure to start the general attack."
Han made a gesture, and the column of ninjas reduced their speed even further.
His mind delighted in the image of the Konoha ninjas, their faces contorted by shock and terror when the ground beneath their feet suddenly opened, vomiting their enemies.
A surge of joy coursed through his body, causing the steam around him to intensify momentarily. 'Konoha ninjas,' he thought, his determination burning like fire, 'Your fate is sealed. No one can save you now.'

In the Konoha army camp, the monstrous fighting spirit and initial impulse began to gradually diminish. However, the bloodlust in the eyes of every Konoha ninja remained intact.
Jiraiya, slowly regaining his composure, couldn't help but wonder: "How....how the hell did Luo Lei manage to awaken our emotions so easily?"
His face remained impassive, but inside, a storm of emotions raged. The anger at having lost control mixed with a growing sense of reluctant respect for Luo Lei.
"Incredible," he murmured, his eyes fixed on Luo Lei's figure. The burning question in his mind was: What was Luo Lei's true objective?
"Damn Iwagakure ninjas!" he growled through his teeth, channeling his frustration towards the enemy. It was easier to direct his anger at Iwagakure than to face the unsettling influence Luo Lei exerted over all of them.
For his part, Minato struggled to maintain control. "I still lack maturity....my patience is not enough," he reprimanded himself, his hand unconsciously tightening on the special Hiraishin kunai.
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, I'll soon have a real fight!"
Meanwhile, Luo Lei observed the scene with a slight smile curving his lips. "The initial impulse fades, but the emotions are fully mobilized," The fire he had ignited in their hearts now burned with a controlled intensity, ready to be unleashed.
Jiraiya and Minato, the most affected by his actions, were also the ones showing the most intense anger. He wasn't surprised; after all, he hadn't shown them an ounce of respect.
"Yūgao, step back," he suddenly ordered.
"Yes, Luo Lei-sama!" Yūgao responded without hesitation, instantly stepping back.
Luo Lei turned towards the front of the camp, his eyes glowing crimson. "You all have fire in your hearts," he murmured, his voice laden with a veiled threat. "I too have fire in mine. Let's see how terrifying it can be when it's fully released...."
Through his X-ray vision, he observed the dark underground cave.
He could clearly see the Iwagakure ninjas advancing, and at the front, to his surprise, was none other than the Five-Tails Jinchūriki.
Perfect...
