Chapter 45: The Escaped Jinchūriki and the Changing Situation

As soon as Uchiha Feiyu finished speaking, five of the dozen or so Konoha ninjas stood up.

Obviously, these five ninjas are truly confident that they can play a role in a high-end game like the Tailed Beasts.

Among the five ninjas, one is from the Akimichi clan, one is from the Aburame clan, and it is unclear which families the remaining three belong to, so they should be civilian ninjas.

The ninja of the Akimichi clan was the most direct. He put a meatball directly into his mouth. As the chakra in his body surged out, his whole body size continued to grow, and finally he turned into a giant of about 17 or 18 meters, and rushed into the battlefield carrying a huge iron stick.

The four-tailed gorilla is only about 20 meters tall. In comparison, the Akimichi clan is only two or three meters shorter. From a visual point of view alone, the Akimichi clan ninjas holding weapons are not much inferior in momentum.

"Is there such a strong Akimichi in Konoha? Who is this guy?"

Uchiha Feiyu said with a bit of surprise, the strength of this Akimichi clan member is definitely the top one among the elite jonin, and can be regarded as a quasi-kage.

A Konoha ninja next to him said:

"That's Senior Qufeng. It is said that this senior and the Third Hokage once served in the same team!"

"But Senior Qufeng is the youngest among his peers and has no interest in participating in the management of the Ninja Village. Otherwise, Senior Qufeng should be a high-ranking official in the Ninja Village now!"

As for the rest of the Aburame clan, they used a very special kind of bug, about a few centimeters in size, which fell on the Four-tailed Son Goku, and soon devoured chakra crazily, expanding rapidly, and turned into a giant bug almost the same size as a human, biting the Four-tailed gorilla and making it scream crazily.

Violent magma flowed out from the body of the four-tailed gorilla. Even though the big insect was burned to death by the magma, it still did not forget to madly devour the chakra of the four-tailed gorilla and even continued to lay eggs. The newly grown insects were obviously resistant to high temperatures and could survive longer in the magma.

"Is this... a parasite?"

Uchiha Feiyu said with a little surprise, this kind of insect is very rare.

Because of its small number and not as tiny as other parasitic insects, the Parasyte is basically useless in battles with other ninjas. However, when dealing with giant summoning beasts and tailed beasts, the effect of this insect is amazing.

As for the remaining three ninjas, they formed seals with their hands and used the water escape technique - the Great Waterfall Technique at the same time. The surging waves swept over like a river, extinguishing the magma flames on the Four-Tailed Sun Wukong.

The Four-Tails possesses Lava Release, which is almost like the Blood Limit. This compound release technique will not be affected by the Five Elements' restraint, but the natural restraint of nature will not disappear. Therefore, Water Release is still the first option to deal with Lava Release.

Under the siege of so many people, even though the four-tailed gorilla had a violent temper, it gradually couldn't hold on. The tailed beast was strong in its large-scale destructive power and lethality to weak ninjas. Facing a group of elite ninjas who could restrain it, it was unable to fully exert its own advantages.

More importantly, the current Lao Zi is not yet a perfect Jinchūriki. Even 20 years later, this Jinchūriki has not reached the level of a perfect Jinchūriki. Now it is naturally even more difficult, and he can't even control the consciousness of the tailed beasts.

In this situation, the power exerted by the Four-Tails was not as strong as that of a wild tailed beast. Moreover, due to the Jinchūriki's own endurance, he could not withstand too long a battle. Halfway through the fight, he retracted into a half-tailed beast state and ran away directly.

"Aren't you going to chase him, Lord Orochimaru?" Looking at the panting and dusty Orochimaru, Uchiha Feiyu asked eagerly.

The main reason was Uchiha Feiyu, who wanted to try to see if he could receive the soul of the tailed beast. And even if it was just a simple Jinchūriki, Lao Shi, he was also a Lava Release Kekkei Genkai ninja, and the value of his soul was much greater than those ordinary Rock Ninjas in his hands.

Orochimaru glanced at Uchiha Feiyu unhappily and said gloomily:
"Not to mention how much it would cost us to kill this guy, just killing the Jinchuriki would probably drive the Iwagakure crazy!"

"And don't forget, there are also Sand Ninjas on this battlefield! Why should we in Konoha fight to the death with the Rock Ninjas and let the Sand Ninjas reap the benefits?"

"I really can't believe it. After hearing the news of the appearance of Jinchūriki, the Sand Ninja can still sit still!"

Hearing this, Uchiha Feiyu sighed with some regret, which made Orochimaru look at him a little strangely.

(This kid is not only very afraid of death, but also has a stronger murderous nature than the average ninja. He doesn't care about other people's lives at all... As expected, the Uchiha who has opened his eyes is a little abnormal.)
Of course, while complaining in his heart, Orochimaru seemed to have forgotten that he was actually the same person.

However, mad scientists are indeed a type of mental illness.

……

The momentum of the Jinchuriki's battle was so great that it was impossible to cover up. As expected, the news of the appearance of the Rock Ninja Jinchuriki really surprised the Sand Ninja, and they felt like they were facing a powerful enemy.

It would be really strange if one side suddenly pulled out a nuclear weapon in an ordinary regional war and the other opponents were not afraid.

"What on earth do those rats from the Iwagakure want to do? They actually sent their Jinchūriki to the battlefield of River Country... Shouldn't their main battlefield be in Grass Country?"

The Fourth Kazekage Rasa looked at the information reported to him with a look of anger on his face.

Not to mention that this is not the opponent's main battlefield, even if it is the main battlefield, how can they send out Jinchūriki as soon as they enter the field! Wouldn't that be like throwing a nuclear bomb and flipping the table as soon as they enter the field?
"That fellow, Onoki Ninjadaira, is the most cunning Kage among the Five Great Nations. It's not surprising that he would do something like this."

Ebizo picked up the information, glanced at it, and spoke very calmly.

"But they sent in the Jinchuriki right after the battle started. This old man has a big appetite. It seems we have to change our target next."

The Fourth Kazekage also nodded:
"Yes, the threat from the Jinchūriki is too great. In the next battle, we must force the Iwagakure out of this battlefield first!"

The Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Earth are not small countries sandwiched in between, but neighbors. There have always been various small-scale frictions between the two. Even during the Second Ninja War, the two were hostile countries and fought many battles in the Kingdom of Rain.

To be precise, there is no good relationship among the five major countries. If you pick any two countries, they basically have a lot of blood debts. Even the two ninja villages of Rock Ninja and Mist Ninja, which are geographically unrelated, have had an example of the second generation Kage perishing together!
In this situation, the Fourth Kazekage made the decision to deal with the Iwagakure first without hesitation.
