Naruto: I Confronted the Five Kage Before the System Arrived

Chapter 306: The Man Emerging from the Warring States Period

With the order from Tsunade, the supreme commander of the Allied Shinobi Forces, mobilization began swiftly.

In front of Iwagakure, the Third Tsuchikage Onoki floated before the densely packed Iwa ninja forces, his voice grave:

"For the sake of our countries and villages, during the long wars of the First to the Third Ninja Wars, ninjas have harbored deep grudges and inflicted countless harms upon each other. I have seen too much of this..."

At the gates of Kirigakure, the Fifth Mizukage Mei Terumi stood at the forefront, gazing at the rapidly assembling Kirigakure forces, with a mix of sternness and sadness:

"The Bloody Mist, internal strife, slaughter, clan extermination... we have experienced too much as well."

Before the Suna forces, the elder Chiyo, who was temporarily acting as Kazekage, had a fierce gleam in her once cloudy eyes:

"To protect the village and everyone, the Fifth Kazekage has sacrificed himself. The pain of Sunagakure, the pain of the other villages, and the pain of the entire ninja world are all related to 'Akatsuki' and the man named 'Hagoromo Gengetsu' standing behind them..."

The Fourth Raikage A stood before the large number of Kumo forces, shouting with iron-blooded resolve:

"If Hagoromo Gengetsu achieves his goal, the Five Great Ninja Villages will cease to exist, and so will the ninja world! Therefore..."

Lastly, Tsunade looked at the Konoha forces about to head to the battlefield, pointing to her forehead protector marked with the unique "Shinobi" symbol, her face resolute:

"Therefore! At this moment, we are no longer enemies! Here, Konoha, Kumo, Suna, Kiri, and Iwa do not exist. There are only... Shinobi!"

"For the sake of protecting our comrades! For the sake of protecting the ninja world! Shinobi, follow me!!"

Roar! Roar! Roar!

In an instant, the Konoha forces, the Iwa forces, the Kiri forces, the Suna forces, and the Kumo forces, thousands upon thousands of ninjas, raised their arms and shouted in unison.

For the first time, the Five Great Ninja Villages set aside their grudges and interests, truly uniting.

Because they had a common enemy.

Hagoromo Gengetsu!

"This is the first time I've seen such a scene."

Not far away, the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi watched the passionate scene of the Konoha ninjas, who had replaced their forehead protectors with the "Shinobi" symbol, rallying together under Tsunade's command. He thought of the similar scenes happening in Iwagakure, Kirigakure, Sunagakure, and Kumogakure and felt deeply moved.

Beside him, Hashirama Senju, who was already aware of the events in the ninja world after his death, spoke with great hope:

"After this war, I hope the ninjas from all sides who fought together and forged genuine bonds will put aside their differences and work together to bring true peace to the ninja world!"

Hashirama believed this was a great opportunity.

Of course, the prerequisite was to defeat Hagoromo Gengetsu.

Tobirama Senju glanced at his idealistic brother without saying much, then turned to Minato Namikaze:

"It's time to move, Fourth Hokage."

"I understand."

Minato nodded and instantly disappeared.

When he reappeared, he was beside Onoki, politely saying:

"Tsuchikage, please have the ninjas hold hands."

Knowing what Minato was planning to do, Onoki immediately issued the command.

Soon, batch after batch of Iwa ninjas were transported to the Divine Tree site by Minato using the Flying Thunder God Technique, joining the already stationed part of the Allied Forces.

The same operation was happening in Konoha.

In a short time, Minato and Tobirama transported the Iwa and Konoha forces to the Divine Tree site and continued with the Kiri, Kumo, and Suna forces.

In their lifetimes, they couldn't have achieved this.

But in their Reanimation state, they didn't have to worry about running out of chakra, making their actions very swift.

All the participating ninja forces and Reanimation strongmen were transported to the Divine Tree site.

Then, under the arrangements of the supreme commander Tsunade, the chief strategist Onoki, the general captain A, and a group of experienced veterans, the personnel were quickly organized.

The cold wind howled.

On the land that was supposed to be desolate, tens of thousands of ninjas and the samurais of the Land of Iron, who soon arrived and joined the Allied Forces, gathered for the first time.

A chilling killing intent began to permeate the Divine Tree site. No animals were seen within ten kilometers.

Only humans.

The ninja forces, who had been prepared in advance, arrived faster than Hagoromo Gengetsu's side. After reorganizing and distributing personnel, they were ready for the battle to begin.

They didn't have to wait long.

Yamanaka Inoichi, the head of the intelligence division responsible for receiving and transmitting information, with his headgear enhancing his sensory abilities, tensed and reported:

"The first interception unit has sent information that the enemy has arrived and is engaged in battle!"

"How many enemies are there? What is their identity?" Tsunade asked, striding forward with a serious expression.

Inoichi, with his eyes closed, looked surprised and hesitant but answered truthfully:

"There is only one enemy! The identity is Hagoromo Gengetsu!!!"

"One person?"

"Hagoromo Gengetsu??"

In the main camp, Tsunade, Onoki, A, Hashirama, and Tobirama were all surprised.

At the site of the first interception unit.

Step. Step. Step.

In a place where tens of thousands of ninjas had gathered, it should have been noisy, but it was dead silent, allowing the sound of a single person's footsteps to echo across the quiet battlefield, reverberating in everyone's ears.

The footsteps were light, yet they felt like heavy drums, beating in the hearts of all the ninjas present.

Gulp!

A Suna ninja at the front line looked at the owner of the footsteps approaching, swallowing nervously.

It wasn't just him; other ninjas in the same line made the same nervous motion.

Not just nervous swallowing.

Trembling hands, pale faces, sweating profusely, and bodies involuntarily retreating – signs of fear were everywhere.

It was as if they faced an army of ten thousand, while they were alone.

A person's name carried weight.

Compared to the past when people discussed the strength of legendary figures with divine power, feeling indifferent and dismissive, thinking the stories were exaggerated.

Now, the man named Hagoromo Gengetsu had profoundly shown them what it meant to be a "man from the Warring States Period."

At this moment.

Watching the man in silver armor from the Warring States period, with the three-wane crescent moon symbol of the Hagoromo clan on his shoulder, black-haired and black-eyed, young and handsome, walking calmly towards them, ignoring the army of ten thousand, some ninjas at the front could no longer bear the pressure, trembling and retreating continuously.

Until a Konoha ninja stood out, grasping his kunai with trembling hands, staring at the approaching biggest boss of the ninja world, shouting with all his courage:

"He is only one man!!"

"For the village! For the village! Everyone, attack together!!!"
