"Whoa, was that an earthquake?"
"Obviously not. That guy who chased you all the way has found us."
Shinji walked out and gazed at the distant sandstorm, feeling the immense curse power filled with a desolate aura. It was definitely Cyber, no doubt about it.
"What? That damned bastard dares to come again? Let go, I'm going to cut him down!"
Upon hearing this, Hidan's spirits soared, like a husky on a leash, yelping and howling.
"Oh, Tobi, let him go. Let's see how many parts he has left this time."
When the rope was loosened, Hidan, who had been yelping and howling moments before, immediately wilted, his expression sheepish. "Aren't you guys going? If the three of us team up, that sand monster is nothing!"
"Perhaps what you said is indeed true, but it's not time for us to act yet."
Shinji had finally managed to lure the opponent into the big pit of Konoha. How could he rush to jump back in?
He would only push the guy back with a shovel when he was preparing to climb out of the pit.
So, they didn't need to do anything now; they just needed to watch the show.
"My money isn't that easy to take, Third Hokage."
Seeing this, Hidan, displeased, went back to sleep.
Without help, he was completely helpless against the opponent alone.
Those Konoha ninjas?
They were just cannon fodder.
As for Tobi, he cared even less about the lives of the Konoha people.
"I'll go find a spot nearby first. When I make my move, you can have Hidan come over."
"Okay, Senior Shinji."
Tobi nodded vigorously, full of energy.
...
Meanwhile, a few brats also came to join the fun.
"Naruto, stop messing around. This is not something we can get involved in."
Sakura was earnestly trying to persuade Naruto.
However, Naruto was already caught up in the heat of the moment and wasn't listening.
"The enemy is attacking Hokage-grandpa. As the next Hokage, how can I stand by and do nothing!"
So, who appointed him? Did the Third Hokage agree?
Sakura muttered in her heart, then continued to persuade.
"Sasuke, you help me talk to Naruto too. This guy just won't listen no matter how I try."
Sasuke looked at the sandstorm in the distance and the fleeing crowd, then suddenly rushed towards the interior.
"Huh? Sasuke?!"
Sakura was stunned. She hadn't even managed to persuade Naruto, and Sasuke had already run off.
"Damn it, Sasuke must want to take all the credit alone! No, I have to be faster than him!"
Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!
Bang!
More than a dozen clones suddenly appeared, surrounding Sakura.
Meanwhile, Naruto's main body took the opportunity to chase after Sasuke.
In the blink of an eye, the two disappeared without a trace. Sakura was furious. Why were they all so uncooperative?
After destroying Naruto's clones, Sakura also prepared to chase after them and advance together.
However, she hadn't run far before she was stopped by a Konoha ninja in his early twenties.
"The evacuation area is in the opposite direction. It's dangerous ahead, you can't go!"
Sakura became anxious. "But my companions have already gone that way."
Upon hearing this, the other person's expression also became serious. "Are your companions around your age? What are their names, male or female, and any distinguishing features?"
Unable to go forward, Sakura could only describe them one by one.
After listening, the other person told her, "Don't worry, I will find your companions as soon as possible and take them to a safe place. Now, you should hurry to the evacuation area!"
Sakura had no choice. She looked back repeatedly. Seeing that there was really no way, she gritted her teeth and left.
...
"Barrier Team, go!"
All 18 members of the Barrier Team arrived at their designated positions and began to form hand seals rapidly.
"Ten Directions of Heaven and Earth - Eight Treasures Absorption!"
White pillars of chakra shot up into the sky and then connected together, forming a cylinder that trapped Cyber inside.
Then, eight wrathful Vajras rose from the ground within the barrier, simultaneously opening their mouths.
Under the immense suction, fire snakes were first swallowed by the Vajras, followed by bolts of lightning.
Finally, it was the turn of the strong winds and yellow sand.
Just as disaster was about to be averted, the sky-high yellow sand, about to be sucked into their mouths, suddenly condensed into giant hands and slammed down on the heads of these Vajras.
With a loud boom!
All eight wrathful Vajras were smashed to pieces!
Although these Vajras could absorb ninjutsu to a certain extent, their physical defense was poor. After all, there were no perfect sealing jutsu or barrier jutsu; they just had different focuses.
With the destruction of the eight wrathful Vajras, the 18 members of the Barrier Team all vomited blood and fell to the ground, suffering the backlash. However, someone immediately took them away for medical treatment.
Although the enemy was not defeated in one fell swoop, at least the basic objective had been achieved.
The opponent's Sandstorm Fury had not caused too much destruction, which was enough.
"Secret Technique: Shadow Imitation Jutsu!"
A Nara clan member, who had been secretly hiding nearby, seized the opportunity and struck true!
"I've got him! Hurry, attack!"
"Wait a moment..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi hastily shouted, but it was too late. Several Konoha ninjas nearby thrust their weapons into the enemy from all directions.
"Got him! Huh? Not good!"
Cyber's body suddenly turned into a 'hedgehog.' A large amount of yellow sand condensed into sharp spikes, piercing their bodies.
"Why?"
A Konoha ninja looked puzzled. He couldn't understand why this guy could still move after being hit by Shadow Imitation Jutsu?
The reason was actually very simple: Shadow Imitation Jutsu had only captured a part of Cyber's body. He only needed to transform the other part of his body into sand in time to counterattack at any moment.
With the deaths of several more companions, all the Konoha ninjas present were filled with rage.
And at this moment, Cyber seemed to see petals drifting past his eyes, and then his entire body was bound to a large tree.
He struggled with all his might but to no avail. What was even more unbelievable was that his sand transformation ability had actually failed?
Kurenai Yūhi emerged from the large tree behind him, holding a sharp kunai.
Demonic Illusion: Tree Binding Death!
At a precise distance, Kurenai seized the opportunity to briefly control the opponent with genjutsu. This was thanks to Shadow Imitation Jutsu locking onto the enemy's head earlier.
Drip, drip, drip...
The bodies of those who had been pierced to death were still hanging on Cyber, and large amounts of blood stained the sand.
"Well done, Kurenai!"
With a flash, Might Guy appeared in front of Cyber. Then, he bent his knees and clenched his fists towards his abdomen.
"Eight Inner Gates... Sixth Gate: Gate of Joy, Open!"
An extremely astonishing aura erupted from Might Guy!
To protect the village and his comrades, he unleashed a killing blow from the outset!
