Naruto: The Tale of an Otsutsuki

Following Minato's sudden appearance, Shibi and Choza quickly moved to join Sara, positioning themselves to protect her.

"So fast!" TenTen exclaimed, marveling at how Minato had whisked Kirito out of harm's way in an instant. "As expected of the Fourth Hokage. I didn't even notice him move!"

Kirito, unfazed, politely thanked Minato, though he hadn't truly needed the intervention. Minato accepted the gratitude with a smile and turned to the group. "This place is about to collapse. We need to leave immediately."

The violent explosions from deeper within the factory were intensifying, and the air had grown unbearably hot. Flames flickered across the walls, threatening to engulf everything.

"Wait!" Sara interjected, pointing toward the frightened Rouran captives huddled nearby. "We have to get them out first."

Minato nodded. "I had Kakashi hold back on destroying that area. Princess Sara, you can lead them out safely."

TenTen raised her Thunder Blades: Fang with determination. "In that case, we'll cover you."

Kakashi, now standing beside Minato, noticed the weapon in TenTen's hands and frowned. "Is that… one of the Seven Ninja Swords from Kirigakure?"

"That's right," TenTen replied with a proud smile. "It's my trophy."

Choza chuckled, his voice filled with admiration. "Youngsters these days really are incredible."

"Focus!" Minato interrupted. "We need to protect Princess Sara while she leads the people out."

Anrokuzan's Relentless Pursuit

Before they could proceed, Anrokuzan began crawling toward them, his grotesque limbs thrashing wildly. "Konoha ninjas!" he roared. "As long as I destroy you, no one will be able to stop me!"

The berserk chakra in his body surged, gathering in his mouth and forming a glowing orb of destructive energy. He aimed it directly at Kirito and the others.

Minato tensed, raising his Flying Thunder God kunai. His plan was to teleport himself and Anrokuzan out of the collapsing factory to protect the others. But there was one problem—he needed to act faster than Anrokuzan's impending attack.

Just as Minato prepared to act, Kirito stepped forward calmly. "Let me handle this."

With a wave of his hand, Kirito summoned a massive steel wall forged from iron sand, which slammed into place between the group and Anrokuzan with a deafening crash.

Kakashi blinked in surprise. "That's impressive, but his power might still break through—"

Boom! Two more walls fell from the air in rapid succession, creating an impenetrable barrier mere inches from Anrokuzan's position.

As the dragon chakra blast erupted from Anrokuzan's mouth, it slammed into the iron wall with a thunderous explosion. The impact rocked the factory, sending violent tremors through the structure. Stone pillars cracked and debris rained from the ceiling as the walls absorbed the brunt of the attack.

Evacuation Under Fire

Behind the barrier, Sara worked quickly to lead the Rouran captives out. Though many were frightened and disoriented, her calm guidance kept them moving. "Stay together! Follow me, and we'll get out safely!" she urged.

Some hesitated, others panicked, but under Sara's leadership, the captives began to move in an orderly manner.

Meanwhile, Kirito dismantled the crumbling city walls he had created. On the other side, Anrokuzan's surroundings were a wasteland of broken machinery, shattered puppets, and deep cracks. His grotesque body was heavily damaged, though the Dragon Vein's chakra worked to repair him.

Anrokuzan sneered, his voice filled with malice. "You're like cockroaches—no matter what I do, you keep coming back!"

TenTen couldn't resist snapping back. "And you look like an oversized cockroach, so who's the real pest here?"

"Infinite power of the Dragon Vein or not," Minato added, stepping forward, "you've gone too far. This ends now."

Seeing Sara and the captives escaping in the distance, Anrokuzan roared with frustration. "No! I won't let her get away!" He released a torrent of chakra threads into the air, transforming them into countless sharp, glistening lines that rained down toward the group.

"Be careful!" Minato shouted. "Don't let those threads touch you, or he'll take control of your body!"

Coordinated Defense

"Exactly," Shibi said, stepping forward. "My parasites feed on chakra. Let me handle this."

Opening his arms, Shibi released a swarm of black insects that surged into the air, colliding with the descending chakra threads in a chaotic midair struggle. "Secret Technique: Insect Jade!"

The parasites consumed most of the threads, but a few redirected themselves toward the fleeing captives.

Noticing this, TenTen dashed forward, her Thunder Blades crackling with electricity. With a swift motion, she severed the remaining threads before they could reach Sara and the others.

"Nice work!" Minato praised. "Only a weapon infused with chakra can cut through those threads."

As Minato turned his attention back to Anrokuzan, his sharp eyes caught sight of the Flying Thunder God kunai he had thrown earlier. It was still embedded in Anrokuzan's grotesque body.

"I need someone to distract him," Minato thought.

Kirito, already understanding Minato's strategy, acted without needing instruction. He summoned a storm of iron sand spears, which rained down on Anrokuzan like a relentless barrage. The grotesque puppet master flailed wildly, trying to evade, but several spears pierced through him, pinning him in place.

"Such power!" Minato muttered, impressed by the sheer devastation. "Are the future ninjas of Konoha always this strong? And… is that Magnetic Release from Sunagakure?"

Minato couldn't help but speculate. "Could this mean Konoha has allied with Sunagakure in the future?"

Minato's Decisive Strike

Anrokuzan roared in defiance, tearing his body free from the iron spears. "You can't stop me! My power is limitless!"

"That's enough," Minato said firmly. As Anrokuzan struggled to regain his balance, Minato appeared beside him in a flash of golden light. Placing a hand on the grotesque puppet's body, he activated his teleportation jutsu.

In an instant, Minato and Anrokuzan vanished from the collapsing factory.
