Chapter 258 - Pick on the Weak

Kazuki slowly walked towards Ōnoki, exuding an aura as if he wasn't surrounded by tens of thousands of Iwagakure ninjas, but rather tens of thousands of Iwagakure ninjas were surrounded by him alone.

"Ōnoki, it seems you've been used as well." Kazuki said as he walked towards Ōnoki.

If there were no surprises, the mastermind behind this play was either Madara or Black Zetsu.

If Ōnoki were to know that he had been used by Madara, he would probably vomit blood.

However, after slaughtering Kirigakure, and now having to slaughter Iwagakure, would he then have to make a trip to Kumogakure?

Before launching the Unification War, it was very necessary to weaken his opponents as much as possible.

As long as he eliminated tens of thousands of opponents this time, and then a few thousand next time, then sooner or later, even if Konoha didn't have Kazuki, it could still launch a village-destroying war against other villages.

"Kazuki!"

Seeing Kazuki slowly walking towards him, Ōnoki's heart tensed. He dared not be careless in the slightest.

There were rumors that Kazuki alone had defeated tens of thousands of Kirigakure ninjas, and even the Third Mizukage fell in that war.

Ōnoki didn't believe that this matter was groundless. Madara back then could also achieve this point.

But was Kazuki a second Madara?

Ōnoki had prepared to encounter Kazuki soon, but he didn't expect that they would have to face Kazuki this time.

However, this was bound to happen sooner or later, after all, Kazuki was only a little over ten years old, and he had to be eliminated before he fully grew up.

Otherwise, once Kazuki fully matured, wouldn't he be even harder to deal with?

At that time, it might require integrating the power of the entire Ninja World to deal with Kazuki.

But Kazuki said he was being used?

Ōnoki quickly looked towards Danzo in the distance. He was actually suspicious of that intelligence report. It couldn't have been transmitted by Hiruzen, so it could only be Danzo.

Thinking that Danzo and Hiruzen were still fighting fiercely, Ōnoki's mind conjured countless possibilities.

After all, Danzo's reputation was well-known. That damned Danzo wanted to use him to deal with Kazuki and Hiruzen.

However, at this moment, he had no choice but to do so.

Could he possibly shake hands and ally with Konoha, and then deal with Danzo first?

This was impossible. At least in Ōnoki's mind, Danzo's threat was not as great as Kazuki and Hiruzen.

Kazuki was the one Ōnoki wanted to eliminate most at this moment. Of course, after Kazuki was eliminated, it would be Danzo's turn.

Ōnoki quickly made up his mind. He took a deep breath and said, "Keep them here, especially Kazuki. Proceed according to the previous plan."

"It seems you have decided to be my enemy. Indeed, those who want to commit suicide are very difficult to save." Kazuki sighed coldly.

"But it doesn't matter. Whether the dust to be removed is one particle or tens of thousands, it's very difficult to distinguish with the naked eye."

His words instantly darkened the faces of the Iwagakure ninjas present.

Dust?

Was he looking down on them?

Damn Kazuki, you are too arrogant.

"Don't look down on others. I hope your strength is as formidable as you say." Ōnoki snorted coldly.

"Everyone, don't panic. There are so many of us, can Kazuki really have enough Chakra to keep all of us here?"

Earth Release: Swamp of the Underworld!

Earth Release: Earth Flow River!

The dozen or so Iwagakure ninjas standing in front simultaneously formed hand signs, beginning to create a suitable battle environment for them. In an instant, the flat ground in front of them began to surge wildly, and a giant river made of muddy water rapidly surged towards Kazuki.

At the same time, a massive swamp appeared beneath Kazuki's feet, as if to drag him into it.

What they didn't expect, however, was that Kazuki was completely unaffected by these swamps. He floated in mid-air, silently watching this scene.

"Flying Ninjutsu?"

Ōnoki was startled when he saw this. He was confident that even Hashirama and Madara could not fly. Only Iwagakure possessed flying Ninjutsu, yet now, Kazuki also had the corresponding jutsu.

Damn it, why does Kazuki also have such a jutsu?!

If that was the case, their plan would need to change. And in Iwagakure, at present, only he could snipe Kazuki.

Ōnoki understood that he had to step forward at this moment. He controlled his body, quickly floating towards Kazuki, attempting to get close to him first.

However, what Ōnoki didn't expect was that before he even got close to Kazuki, Kazuki had already floated past him and landed among the army of tens of thousands of Iwagakure ninjas. He then turned into an afterimage, slaughtering within the army of tens of thousands.

Fists, feet, knees, elbows. Kazuki at this moment was like a war weapon.

Unlike the previous battle within the Kirigakure army, Kazuki this time was clearly more decisive and swift. At the same time, his personal destructive power was also stronger than before.

His Taijutsu had seen a greater improvement than before.

And his fighting style made Hashirama, Tobirama, and Mito, who had been observing from the side, recall an old acquaintance. In this regard, Kazuki seemed to increasingly resemble Madara. Perhaps, this was the most fitting fighting style for the Uchiha Clan.

However, just by watching the battle, the Uchiha clan's fighting style was truly art.

Kagami, who was pinned to the ground, felt a mix of emotions watching this scene. His son had made a name for himself. As his father, Kagami was naturally overjoyed. He hoped Kazuki would become stronger and stronger.

But, he was still restricted right now.

If you release me, I can fight alongside you too!

His son was going to fight tens of thousands of people. He, as his father, also wanted to fight alongside Kazuki.

Ōnoki found that it was temporarily difficult to deal with Kazuki, so he turned his gaze towards Hiruzen in the distance.
