Aside from launching a few clumsy disguised ambushes outside the logistics camp, White Zetsu managed to do so.
After being instantly wiped out by Naruto's shadow clones, they were unable to organize a proper night raid again.
This finally gave the exhausted Allied soldiers a relatively complete and invaluable opportunity to rest.
Many people, after their shift, would almost immediately collapse and fall asleep, seizing every minute to recover their strength and chakra.
However, this brief tranquility, like the last gasp before a storm, was shattered completely the following morning.
First unit, coastal defense line.
After a night of emergency repairs, the defensive fortifications ravaged by yesterday's battle have been barely restored to their original state.
The ninja on early morning watch rubbed his sleepy eyes and forced himself to stay alert.
Just when he thought today might be as calm as the latter half of the night—
“Beep!!!!”
A sharp, piercing alarm, signifying the highest level of threat, suddenly blared from the sensing force camp deployed behind the front lines!
The sound instantly shattered the tranquility of the early morning, causing the hearts of all the Allied ninjas who heard it to tighten!
"Report! Captain Darui!"
A sensory ninja scrambled to Darui's side, his face deathly pale, his voice trembling with extreme terror: "Ahead... ahead is the sea!"
"A chakra reaction detected... a single chakra reaction detected!"
"But...but it's enormous! And incredibly fast, it's charging straight towards our lines!"
Darui's usually languid eyes suddenly sharpened like an eagle's. He abruptly stood up and rushed to the front of the defensive line.
There was no need for the sensory unit to provide a detailed description; his combat instincts, honed through countless life-and-death experiences, had already issued the strongest warning!
A heavy, overwhelming sense of oppression, like a vast ocean or a towering mountain, is approaching at an alarming speed!
"All personnel! High combat readiness! Enemy attack!"
Darui's voice, amplified by chakra, resounded throughout the entire coastline, carrying an unprecedented solemnity.
All the ninjas instantly shifted from their brief rest to their battle positions, gripping their kunai tightly and already forming ninjutsu hand seals.
The tense atmosphere was almost palpable, with everyone staring intently at the misty sea horizon in the distance.
There was no need to see it with the naked eye; that terrifying chakra was already crashing down like a tangible tsunami!
Before the allied forces could even launch any probing attacks, a huge column of water suddenly burst open on the distant sea!
A gigantic water dragon, far larger than anyone could imagine and almost blotting out the sky, leaped out of the deep sea with a deafening roar!
Those eyes, made of seawater, flashed with a chilling killing intent, and their gaping maw seemed capable of devouring the entire coastal defense line!
"How is this possible... a water dragon bomb of this size?!"
Darui's pupils constricted, his heart filled with horror. This was no longer an ordinary water-style ninjutsu; it was practically a catastrophe!
"Thunder Release·Black Spot Cha!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Darui instantly unleashed his strongest Lightning Release ninjutsu!
With a ferocious roar, the black thunder beast shot towards the giant water dragon like an arrow released from a bow!
This is one of the top-tier Lightning Release techniques in Kumogakure, enough to easily destroy a small hill!
However, the black thunder beast, powerful enough to tear steel apart, crashed into the mighty water dragon, only to vanish like a mud ox entering the sea.
It only slightly halted the water dragon's forward momentum, creating a small splash, before being completely submerged and swallowed by the endless seawater!
The water dragon continued its relentless advance, carrying an overwhelming force, and crashed heavily into the coastal defenses that the Allied forces had painstakingly constructed overnight!
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The deafening roar seemed to tear everyone's eardrums apart!
Solid rock walls, wooden fences, traps and mechanisms...
Faced with absolute power, it is as fragile as paper and collapses instantly!
The raging torrent of water, carrying pebbles and wood chips, created a devastating shockwave that swept towards the allied ninjas behind the defensive line!
"Get out of the way!"
"Tu Dun·Tu Liubi!"
"Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!"
Exclamations, roars, and the sounds of ninjutsu being activated mingled together, but in the face of this catastrophic attack, the efforts of individuals seemed so insignificant.
Countless ninjas were swept away by the surging water and crashed heavily onto the ruins behind them, their screams echoing everywhere.
When the spray finally subsided and the raging torrents receded, the once orderly Allied defenses were reduced to a scene of utter devastation.
The surviving ninjas struggled to their feet from the mud and ruins, soaking wet and bearing injuries of varying degrees.
Still terrified, they looked in the direction from which the attack had come.
On the sea, a figure stood silently.
He stood steadily on the waves without using any ninja tools.
He wore blue Warring States period armor and had his signature short silver hair.
His face was cold and serious, and his eyes were as deep and cold as the seawater beneath his feet.
"That is……"
Darui wiped the water and blood from his face, and when he saw the person's face clearly, his heart sank.
A chill ran from the soles of my feet straight to the top of my head: "The Second Hokage... Tobirama Senju!"
Not only Darui, but all the Allied Ninjas who recognized this legendary figure were filled with immense shock and despair.
Yesterday they faced the shadows of various villages throughout history. Although powerful, they still had the psychological strength to fight back.
But the person in front of us is one of the founders of Konoha, a master of ninjutsu who developed countless forbidden techniques, including the "Impure World Reincarnation" technique itself!
His strength and understanding of ninjutsu have long surpassed the scope of ordinary Kage!
Tobirama Senju's cold gaze slowly swept over the ravaged defensive line.
His gaze swept over the ninjas, who were wearing uniforms from different ninja villages but standing side by side, and a complex emotion that was extremely difficult to detect seemed to flash in his eyes.
"Konoha, Sunagakure, Kumogakure..."
His voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable authority: "So many ninja villages have united... It seems that the ninja world has undergone considerable changes since my death."
"Who...is the commander here?"
Darui took a deep breath, suppressing the tremor in his heart, stepped forward, and said in a deep voice, "Second Hokage, I am Darui, the captain of the First Division from Kumogakure."
Tobirama's gaze fell on Darui, pausing slightly: "Is that so? Kumogakure kid... Next, I'll trouble you to help me seal me away again."
Darui and the surrounding allied ninjas were stunned, almost thinking they had misheard.
Tobirama's tone remained calm, but upon closer listening, one could detect a suppressed sense of helplessness and resolve: "My body no longer obeys my commands."
When he regained consciousness, he found himself summoned back to the mortal world once again using the Impure World Reincarnation technique.
He thought it was Orochimaru, that traitor, who was behind it all, but he never expected that the one controlling him was a strange boy named "Kabuto" who exuded a snake-like aura.
What made the developer of this forbidden technique feel even more ashamed and angry was...
He thought that with his profound understanding of the Impure World Reincarnation and his powerful soul, he could forcibly break free from control.
But he never expected that this junior named Dou would optimize and strengthen this technique to a point that even he, the creator, would find difficult to resist!
The binding force originating from the contract and the control runes, like the strongest shackles, firmly imprisoned his will and drove his actions.
After consciousness was completely suppressed and the body involuntarily launched that devastating attack.
He could only seize brief moments of speaking time during lulls in the attack and when the opponent's control was slightly loose.
Now, his only hope rests on the seemingly composed Cloud Village commander before him and the Allied Shinobi behind him.
Before the enormous sensory water sphere, Yamanaka Inoichi suddenly opened his eyes.
His face was filled with shock and urgency, and his voice instantly resounded throughout the command room via telepathy: "Report! The First Unit has been attacked by a powerful enemy! The target has been confirmed as... the Second Hokage, Lord Tobirama Senju!"
"what?!"
Tsunade suddenly stood up from her seat, her fists clenched so tightly they cracked.
The chair beneath her cracked from the force she released in that instant: "So fast?! It was only yesterday..."
She received the news from Nagato yesterday that the remains of the First and Second Hokage had been taken.
Although I was mentally prepared, I didn't expect the other party to act so quickly.
In just one night, my second grandfather was summoned and thrown into battle!
The Fourth Raikage, A, slammed his fist on the control panel, instantly denting the hard metal surface: "Damn it! It's that Tobirama Senju! Azaburo!"
A pretty female ninja dressed in traditional Kumogakure clothing immediately responded from behind.
"Prepare the Heavenly Delivery Technique immediately!"
The Raikage's voice boomed like thunder: "Send the Amber Purification Bottle to Dairui! Use the Sage of Six Paths' treasure to completely seal away this troublesome Second Hokage!"
"Yes! Raikage-sama!"
Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately began forming hand seals to prepare the incantation.
She knew that against an opponent of Tobirama Senju's caliber, ordinary sealing techniques and methods would likely be ineffective; she would have to use the strongest sealing artifact!
"Notify Naruto!"
Suppressing her worries, Tsunade immediately added the order: "Have his shadow clones immediately abandon patrols in other areas and fully support the First Squad!"
"At all costs, hold off the Second Hokage and create an opportunity for the Amber Purification Bottle to be teleported and sealed!"
The order spread rapidly, like ripples.
Naruto's main body, far away on Mount Myōboku, received the information immediately. He was alarmed and immediately mobilized his shadow clones scattered throughout the battlefield.
Golden rays of light shone from the direction of the Second and Third Units' garrisons.
They sped across the sky at top speed, heading towards the coastal defense line where the first unit was located!
