The Otsutsuki Road from Kirigakure

The meeting between Otsutsuki Tenshin and Hyuga Mukai ended in a short while.

No one knew what the two talked about. The only thing that could be seen was that after Hinata Mukai put on his black robe and hood again and walked away with his head down, Otsutsuki Tenshin's mouth corners were harder to suppress than an AK...!

"Heh..." Otsutsuki Tenshin's chuckle was barely audible, "Hinata...!"

-----------------

The view turns back to the Forest of Death.

Yahiko, Nagato and Konan stood on a tree, looking at the rising Four Purple Flame Array barrier with grim expressions.

They never imagined that Konoha would dare to take such a big risk and attack them in the second Chunin Exam!

However, the three of them were not too afraid. Even though the other side had several times more people than them, except for one Kage-level warrior, Danzo Shimura, the others were just jonin...!

In Danzo Shimura's understanding, he will directly hit four twos at the beginning of this wave. How should you deal with it?

(Shimura Danzo: I directly used my flying dragon to crush the opponent. How can you lose? This time, I have the advantage!!!)

You know, in addition to the four Root ninjas who used the Four Purple Flame Array barrier, he also had four teams of elite Root ninjas. Plus, with his own Kage-level strongman to support him, he had some confidence even if he surrounded and killed the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen...!

And his target is just three little guys who are not even "Chunin". If he can't take them down, it would be ridiculous.

Therefore, even though Danzo Shimura knew that he did not have much time, he was confident enough that he could capture Nagato and erase all traces and evacuate in time before his good friend the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen and the leader of the Hidden Mist Village with the Byakugan, Otsutsuki Tenshin, arrived!

As long as he is not caught on the spot or there is no evidence that he did it, what can he do even if he is seen by Otsutsuki Tenshin's Byakugan?

However, what he never expected was that although Yahiko, Nagato and Konan were Genin in rank, they were not Genin in strength.

Although the four twos of Shimura Danzo are already very big, but the king bombs of Yahiko, Nagato and Konan are even bigger!!!

.........

.........

.........

"All things are attracted by heaven!!!"

Nagato stretched out his hand and aimed at the root of one of the warriors who was closer to him and attacked directly.

There was no need to waste time talking to the other party at this point. From the moment the barrier rose and Danzo took action, the two sides were already in a situation of a fight to the death.

The Root Jonin had never seen the technique of using gravity called "Ten Thousand Things Attraction", so he was caught off guard and was pulled directly by Nagato into the air.

"Water Style: Iron Cannonball Technique!!!"

"PAPER SHURIKEN!!!"

Yahiko and Konan, who had a very good understanding with Nagato, also launched their ninjutsu at the same time when Nagato stretched out his hand to use "Ten-Xiang-Ten-Yin".

As chakra surged, Yahiko spewed out an enormous ball of water from his mouth, like a blue meteorite falling from the sky. With astonishing momentum and speed, it whizzed towards the Root Jonin who was forcibly pulled over by Nagato with the "Tianyin of All Things"!

At the same time, Konan used paper escape to form shurikens, which were densely shot at Shimura Danzo and other Root ninjas, leaving them no time to rescue this Root Jonin in time.

.........

.........

.........

The water ball and the Root Jonin collided heavily in mid-air. In an instant, water splashed everywhere, and the shock wave spread out in all directions like a violent storm. The jonin was directly knocked dozens of meters away by this terrifying impact force. The scarlet blood mixed with broken flesh and internal organs fell in the air like raindrops...!

However, Konan still lacks sufficient understanding of Shimura Danzo's ruthlessness. To Danzo, who has a dark and cruel personality, these Root Ninjas, even the Jonin among them, are nothing more than tools and subordinates...!

If he could capture Nagato, a member of the Uzumaki clan, he would not feel sorry even if all the members of these five teams were wiped out. After all, these ordinary ninjas are nothing compared to the Uzumaki clan, they are just consumables...!

Probably, possibly, only the elite jonin among them would be looked up to by Danzo and would be considered to cherish their lives a little...!

Therefore, under the order of Danzo Shimura, the other Root Ninjas ignored the unlucky guy who was killed by Nagato and Yahiko at the beginning, and instead concentrated all their firepower on Nagato while dodging Konan's paper shuriken.

In an instant, exploding flames, raging hurricanes, dazzling lightning, surging waves, thick soil, and all kinds of secret techniques mixed in between, all rushed towards the tree where Nagato and the other two were...!

.........

.........

.........

Ninjutsu came like a tide, colorful and dazzling, as if a grand fireworks show blooming in the sky. However, these beautiful lights contained deadly danger and murderous intent.

But Nagato was not panicked at all, but stared at all this with a stern look. The next moment, he controlled the repulsive force to float lightly from the tree, floating forward like a feather, and directly faced the ninjutsu that swept in from the air.

Yahiko and Konan, at the same time, rushed to the side in tacit understanding. Their target was the Root ninjas who were scattered around and surrounding them...!

Nagato's Rinnegan shone with a heart-pounding light, and a large amount of pupil power quickly gathered. At the same time, the chakra in Nagato's body boiled up in an instant, and a violent chakra fluctuation continued to radiate from the surroundings with Nagato as the center.

"Shinra Tenzheng!!!"

The surging repulsive force was like an enraged ancient beast, opening its bloody mouth and bursting out suddenly towards Nagato!

The air was instantly torn apart, and a visible shock wave formed wherever the repulsive force passed, with a piercing whistling sound, which deflected all the attacking ninjutsu!!!

"boom!!!"

A deafening and violent crash that resounded through the sky suddenly rang out, like thunder from a clear sky, exploding throughout the entire Death Forest.

The powerful impact generated by the collision of the ninjutsu caused a gust of wind to whistle past, and within the barrier of the Four Purple Flame Formation, dust and fallen leaves were raised all over the sky...!

Nagato floated in the air, his long red hair as bright as flames, seemed to be given life, dancing wantonly with the strong wind. Every strand of hair was like a smart elf, jumping and spinning in the wind, and the hair covering his eyes was also blown high by the strong wind, revealing the Rinnegan shining with purple light underneath!

.........

.........

.........

-----------------

First, a purple barrier suddenly rose in the Death Forest.

Immediately afterwards, there was a loud explosion that pierced the clouds and split the rocks. The horrifying sound waves continued to echo throughout the entire Death Forest like a raging storm. All of a sudden, the trees shook and the branches and leaves flew everywhere.

Afterwards, an extremely violent chakra fluctuation suddenly spread out, like a surging tide, quickly spreading to the entire Death Forest with the explosion point as the center...!

The other candidates in the Death Forest, whether they were fighting each other or on their way, all stopped what they were doing and looked towards the rising purple barrier. Their faces kept changing and their hearts were filled with turmoil...!

They had no idea what was going on there, let alone which ninja village's "genin" could have launched such a terrifying attack!!!

But then, they quickly gathered their minds. After all, this had nothing to do with them, and they were happy to see it happen. It is better to let my fellow Taoist die than to let myself die. This truth applies no matter where you are...!

Not to mention, a battle of this magnitude was bound to see one of the parties eliminated, which meant that this was a big advantage for them to some extent. After all, their primary goal was to collect the two scrolls of heaven and earth and pass the second round of the Joint Chunin Exam!!!

.........

.........

.........

In the Hokage's office, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was using the "Telescope Technique" to peek at the second exam, instantly realized the truth when he saw the Four Purple Flame Array barrier rising in the Forest of Death.

He knew that his good friend was unable to suppress his inner ambitions after all, and during the second exam he directly attacked the Uzumaki clan who were participating in the Joint Chunin Exam.

So, he immediately put away the crystal ball, angrily kicked over the desk in front of him, and then quickly rushed to the Death Forest with his Anbu. He wanted to quickly clean up Danzo's mess and stop Danzo's behavior that might trigger a ninja war!!!

.........

.........

.........

In an izakaya in Konoha Village, sensing the sudden burst of chakra from Nagato in the Forest of Death, Otsutsuki Tenshin, who had just finished meeting with Hyuga Mukai, instantly opened his Byakugan and his gaze extended towards the direction of the Forest of Death.

But then, he closed his Byakugan again. A mere Shimura Danzo, even with the help of many Root ninjas, would not be a match for Nagato. What's more, Nagato's Rinnegan contained a backup plan left by the head of his family!

Moreover, he also saw the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen and the Anbu hurriedly heading towards the Death Forest.

Therefore, he had nothing to worry about and continued to play music and dance...!

In fact, it is the Konoha side that should be worried. Their Hokage assistant, Danzo Shimura, who is known as the "Dark Ninja", might be killed on the spot by the furious Nagato!

However, he certainly would not just sit there and do nothing, as that would make their Kirigakure appear too weak and vulnerable. Therefore, as soon as the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen returned to the Hokage Building, he would go to his house and make a big fuss about the matter...!

-----------------

Danzo Shimura, who was far away, looked at Nagato's exposed wavy eyes that were glowing with a strange purple light, and his pupils contracted violently...!

He recognized it!

That is! ! !

The eyes of the legendary Sage of the Six Paths who pacified the troubled times, the Samsara Eye, known as the first of the three major eye techniques in the ninja world!!!

Shimura Danzo's gloomy single eye instantly turned red, his excitement beyond words!

It seems that this time, he will not only be able to gain a member of the Uzumaki clan, but also a pair of Rinnegan that only exists in legends and has never appeared in the ninja world!

He reached out and untied the bandage covering his right eye, revealing the three-magatama Sharingan that had been hidden under the bandage. In order to avoid any accidents, Shimura Danzo decided to do it himself!!!

(At this time, Shimura Danzo had not yet transplanted Wood Release and replaced his Sharingan arm, and only had one Sharingan in his right eye.)

(When he redistributed the positions of the clan territories after the Nine-Tails Night, his right arm was still normal, but when he snatched Uchiha Shisui's Sharingan on the eve of the Uchiha clan's rebellion, his right arm was already wrapped in bandages and was not used in the battle. Therefore, Danzo obtained Wood Release and Sharingan arm at least 48 years after Kirigakure.)

.........

.........

.........

"Wind Release·Vacuum Jade!!!"

Danzo attacked boldly, and started with his most powerful B-level wind-style ninjutsu.

A continuous stream of wind-style chakra bullets, at an extremely terrifying speed, swept towards Nagato from a distance of hundreds of meters.

Nagato watched the scene calmly without a trace of panic. He controlled the repulsive force to raise his body to avoid the sweep of the Vacuum Ball, then swooped down towards Danzo's position with a strong hatred in his eyes.

You know, his parents died at the hands of Konoha ninjas, and the commander of Konoha at that time was none other than this damned Shimura Danzo in front of him!!!

Therefore, when Nagato saw Danzo Shimura, the rage in his heart was already burning uncontrollably!

Looking at Nagato approaching quickly from high above, the three-magatama Sharingan in Danzo's right eye was spinning rapidly. In his sight, Nagato's movements seemed to be slowed down, and his movement trajectory was clearly discernible...!

Then, Danzo changed the seals of his hands and took a deep breath at the same time.

"Wind Release·Vacuum Jade!!!"
