Chapter 83 Pre-War Discussion
Seeing that the atmosphere in the tent was not right, Namikaze Minato quickly spoke again:
"But everyone doesn't need to worry. Apart from that one time, the Third Raikage has never used the Space-Time Ninjutsu again. I think either that ninjutsu was cast on him by someone else, or it has certain flaws and can only be used for displacement, not actual combat."
After hearing this, many ninjas breathed a sigh of relief. However, Uchiha Feiyu was very clear that the Third Raikage did not know any space-time ninjutsu. The reason why he suddenly appeared in Konoha's camp should be due to the Sky-Send Technique of the Hidden Cloud Village.
The Tensou Jutsu is a space-time ninjutsu unique to the Hidden Cloud Village. The caster can directly send objects to a designated location at a speed close to the speed of light - of course, close to the speed of light is definitely nonsense, but at least a speed of several hundred times the speed of sound should be achievable.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be only a very small number of ninjas who could withstand the power of this ninjutsu. If ordinary ninjas were used with the Tensou Jutsu, they would simply turn into ashes due to the friction with the air.
Since Konoha has no information about the Tensou Technique, Minato Namikaze made this misjudgment.
"But if you think about it carefully, it's quite perverted... directly sending the Third Raikage over with the Heaven's Sending Technique, making a flower bloom in the middle, and then the ninja army will come to kill... No wonder Konoha's front line on the Cloud Ninja side was annihilated. The Third Raikage and the Eight-Tails are almost the same in strength, and suddenly appeared in the middle of the camp. Who can defend against this?"
Minato Namikaze is very powerful, and his Flying Thunder God Technique is extremely lethal to glass cannons like ninjas. Unfortunately, the Raikage lineage has never followed the beaten path. They are extremely rare blood-bull berserkers among ninjas, which is just the right counter for assassins like Minato Namikaze who have high sensitivity and low attack.
If Namikaze Minato could kill ordinary ninjas like mowing grass, then facing the Third Raikage would be like scratching him. No matter the small kunai in his hand or the so-called Rasengan, they could not pose any threat to the Third Raikage's lightning armor.
Of course, the Third Raikage couldn't catch Minato Namikaze, but in the camp, he didn't need to deal with Minato Namikaze. Just a random killing would be enough to throw the entire camp into chaos.
Just like the Nine-Tails Rebellion in the original work, Namikaze Minato himself is not afraid of the Nine-Tails. Even if they are to have a fair fight, Namikaze Minato's chances of winning are even higher - don't forget, in addition to Flying Thunder God, Namikaze Minato is also proficient in sealing techniques.
However, in the Konoha Village, if they really wanted to fight to the end, the Konoha Village would probably be razed to the ground!
After all, Namikaze Minato, who possesses the Flying Thunder God, is only suitable for killing people, but not for defensive battles.
In addition to the Third Raikage, the AB combination of the Kumogakure Village also came to the front line. However, Minato Namikaze's evaluation of the AB combination was much lower:
"The strength of the AB combination is not weak, but as long as the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki does not enter the complete tailed beast state, I should be able to hold them both back with my own strength."
"So now, the only problem is the Third Raikage?"
"But even if we know the information about the Third Raikage, it doesn't seem easy to fight him, right?"
"Is that guy really a ninja? I've heard that the Third Raikage fought hand-to-hand with the Eight-Tails! He's like a condensed tailed beast!"
A group of ordinary jonin talked to each other for a moment, then turned their heads and looked at Uchiha Toba and Orochimaru.
The strongest in the entire Konoha army are Uchiha Toba, Orochimaru, and Namikaze Minato.
Now that the master of the sect has personally admitted that his attack is just scraping, the only ones who can compete with the Raikage are naturally Uchiha Toba and Orochimaru.
Uchiha Feiyu saw everyone's gazes, and spread his hands, showing a posture of showing off: "Don't look at me... The most basic foundation of the White Fang Sword Technique I practice is the Lightning Release Stimulation Method. In this aspect, even Hatake Sakumo is far behind the Third Raikage, let alone me."
"If I really meet the Third Raikage, I will definitely not be his opponent. I may even be weaker than Minato Namikaze. After all, Minato-kun's Flying Thunder God Technique is much faster than the Third Raikage. I may not even be as fast as the Third Raikage. It will be difficult for me to even escape if I run into him!"
Orochimaru felt his teeth itching when he saw his cheap apprentice shirking his responsibilities. Unfortunately, he was not as shameless as Uchiha Feiyu, not to mention that as the commander of the Konoha troops, if he admitted defeat directly, there would be no need to fight this battle.
Seeing the expectant eyes of the other merchants in the tent looking at him, Orochimaru felt his scalp tingling, and finally he could only bite the bullet and say:
"Okay...if we get to the battlefield, I'll try to hold back the Third Raikage!"
Of course, it is hard to say whether he can hold him back. However, Orochimaru has many ways to save his life. Even if he cannot defeat the Third Raikage, his life will not be in danger.
Otherwise, with Orochimaru's life-saving character, he would definitely not disregard his own life for the sake of face. It was just because he knew that although the Raikage had amazing frontal combat power, he could not really threaten himself who had mastered a large number of forbidden techniques.
"Very good, now that all the problems have been solved, let's go back and rest. We will probably arrive at the battlefield tomorrow!"
Uchiha Feiyu clapped his hands with a smile on his face and spoke, causing everyone in the tent to look at each other in bewilderment. Orochimaru sighed helplessly:
"There are still many problems that have not been solved. Are you going to go back to bed right now?"
"Also... I held back the Third Raikage, and Namikaze Minato held back the AB team, so who are you going to deal with tomorrow?"
Uchiha Feiyu chuckled:
"Who? I'll just kill them. As long as there's no Third Raikage and the AB team, I can kill ordinary Kumo ninjas at a speed not much slower than Minato!"
Orochimaru nodded without saying much. Although Uchiha Feiyu liked to pick on the weak and fear the strong, he was definitely better than Namikaze Minato, or even most of the Konoha jonin in one aspect.
That was because he was ruthless! If Minato Namikaze had not been stimulated by Konoha's disastrous defeat and wanted to slow down the pace of the Cloud Ninja in the Land of Fire, he would never have killed 800 ninjas in three days.
But for Uchiha Feiyu, if he was strong enough, even if he was asked to massacre the entire Cloud Ninja Village, he would not frown at all, and might even do it with great joy.
In the entire Konoha Village, apart from Uchiha Toba, it is estimated that only Orochimaru himself and Shimura Danzo possess such a cold psychological quality.
