I've Already Confronted the Five Kage, and the System Just Arrived!

Chapter 307: Chapter 308



"So quickly?!"

The faces of those in the Allied Ninja Headquarters turned pale.

How long had it been? Gensou had already annihilated a force of ten thousand ninjas?

Although they knew he was powerful, this was simply beyond belief.

Mei, the Fifth Mizukage, recalled her earlier remarks and muttered,

"No wonder… Gensou dared to show up alone."

After hearing the latest battle report, A, the Fourth Raikage, clenched his fists tightly, his determination to follow through with his plan solidified.

"If this continues, we'll be picked off one by one! Give the order, Tsunade! Deploy everyone. I refuse to believe we can't wear Gensou down!"

Hearing this, Onoki, the Third Tsuchikage, immediately countered,

"Yes, we must act, but not with everyone. Against someone like Gensou, sending too many ordinary ninjas will achieve little!"

The Third Hokage, Hiruzen, nodded in agreement.

"Tsunade, deploy a portion of our forces."

Tsunade, after some thought, agreed with Onoki's plan and was about to allocate troops when Inoichi, who was monitoring the situation, quickly interjected:

"Gensou has already reached the second interception force's defensive line!"

Tsunade's expression tightened as she issued an immediate command.

"Shikaku, you'll take charge of the second interception force. Hold him off until reinforcements from the headquarters arrive!"

"Yes!"

Shikaku quickly approached Inoichi, allowing him to press his hand against his forehead. Enhanced by Yamanaka clan techniques, Shikaku began to coordinate the second force remotely.

Tsunade continued giving orders:

"First, Second, and current Kage, along with Minato and half of the Edo Tensei force, follow me to confront Gensou."

"I leave the headquarters to you, Hiruzen-sensei."

The supreme commander's orders were met with a resounding response.

"Yes!"

In an instant, the air was filled with the sound of movement.

Led by Tsunade, the combined group of Kage and the Edo Tensei forces swiftly moved out, heading straight for Gensou.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

In the midst of the chaotic melee, the sound of steel clashing echoed incessantly.

Gensou wielded a stolen ninja sword, cutting down ninja after ninja and samurai with lightning speed, leaving them no chance to react.

"Where is he?!"

"He's here—no, wait! Where did he go?!"

"I can't see him at all!"

"Is that even human speed?"

Ninjas and samurai alike gripped their weapons, scanning their surroundings in confusion, unable to act as they watched their comrades fall one after another.

Clang!

Just as Gensou was about to strike again, a blade suddenly appeared, intercepting his attack in front of an unknowing ninja.

Gensou raised an eyebrow slightly.

After fighting for so long, this was the first time someone had blocked his attack.

"Quick reflexes. And decent strength as well."

Gensou tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword, yet the opposing blade didn't budge.

He turned to see a man with a long beard covering his mouth and chin, his head wrapped in bandages, and clad in layered green armor. The man's eyes were as sharp as blades, staring intently at Gensou.

It was Mifune, the General of the Land of Iron.

"So, even the samurai of the Land of Iron have abandoned their secluded ways and their ridiculous code of Bushido to die here?" Gensou remarked coldly.

Mifune gripped his sword firmly, his expression unwavering.

"For the world, those who believe in Bushido must fight!"

As his words fell, Mifune swiftly sidestepped Gensou's blade, leaning forward and stepping in to deliver a powerful slash.

Iaijutsu: Iai Slash!

The sharp blade sliced through the air like lightning.

Gensou's pupils narrowed slightly as he took a rare step back.

Sensing the opportunity, Mifune pressed forward, relentlessly attacking with his sword despite the chakra it consumed. His efforts gave the second interception force time to reorganize.

Under Shikaku's remote guidance, the previously chaotic force quickly stabilized and redeployed their ranks.

"Mifune-dono, you may retreat now," Shikaku's voice sounded in Mifune's mind.

Mifune remained focused, channeling chakra into his blade. With a powerful swing, he unleashed a tangible sword beam that slashed toward Gensou.

Taking advantage of the moment, he swiftly pulled back.

"Trying to escape?"

With his Rinnegan locking onto Mifune's chakra movements, Gensou effortlessly dodged the sword beam and extended his left hand toward Mifune.

Banshō Ten'in!

In an instant, a powerful gravitational force pulled Mifune uncontrollably toward Gensou.

"Doton: Iwa Tetsuhō no Jutsu!"

Under Shikaku's command, a group of Iwa ninjas formed hand seals, spitting small stones from their mouths that collided mid-air to form solid cannonballs, raining down on Gensou.

"The Rinnegan can absorb ninjutsu, but can it absorb ninjutsu while using another Rinnegan ability at the same time?"

Thanks to the Yamanaka clan's abilities, Shikaku observed everything firsthand, analyzing and strategizing in real-time.

The alliance's previous encounters with Uchiha Madara had given them valuable insights into the Rinnegan's capabilities.

Just as Madara couldn't simultaneously use Susano'o and absorption techniques, Gensou couldn't absorb ninjutsu while maintaining Banshō Ten'in.

Still, Gensou didn't seem concerned.

Allowing his Steel Release to coat his body, Gensou fixed his gaze on the rapidly approaching Mifune. A black rod quickly extended from his palm.

The cannonballs struck Gensou's steel-clad form without causing any damage, and Mifune continued to be drawn closer.

Shikaku hastily issued another command.

"Doton: Chidōkaku!"

Ninjas slammed their hands onto the ground, causing the terrain beneath Gensou to rise sharply while the ground under Mifune sank.

The distance between the two widened once more.

But the alliance wasn't done yet.

A group of Cloud ninjas with the Storm Release kekkei genkai rapidly formed seals, shouting:

"Ranton: Reizā Sākasu!"

Dozens of lightning-water hybrid lasers shot through the sky, relentlessly targeting Gensou.

"Steel Release excels at physical defense, but it's less effective against Storm Release. The Preta Path's absorption isn't wide enough to handle all the lasers. There's only one way out," Shikaku thought as he observed Gensou being pushed into the air.

Just as expected, the gravitational pull on Mifune vanished.

The Storm lasers disappeared as well, leaving Shikaku to record his findings and relay them to Tsunade, who was en route.

However, before Shikaku could finish his report, several black rods embedded themselves into Mifune's back.

Thud!

The samurai collapsed to the ground.
