Konoha Hypocrite

Sun rays shone on him from behind, creating a golden halo around him. Because of the light effect, the Sand and Stone ninjas could only see a sturdy outline with a pair of Mangekyo Sharingan on the towering stone pillar.

Tonan’s visually explosive bearing was in sharp contrast with his previous refined figure. By now, Onoki had used the Light-Weight Rock Technique to move a huge boulder on top of the distant mountain on a cloud layer above Tonan.

“Die, Konoha’s brat.” From everyone’s perspective, a huge boulder burst out of the clouds and smashed toward Tonan with great momentum. As the boulder got closer, the shadow became larger.

“Watch out!” Nara Shikaku’s pupils shrank and he shouted. At the same time, he quickly used his mind to inform the Akimichi clan: “Quick, use Expansion Technique to stop it!”

Akimichi Choza’s reply came in a panicked voice: “It won’t work. The stone pillar is too tall. Expansion Technique can’t reach it.”

However, Tonan turned slightly and glanced at the boulder falling from the sky. At this moment, Onoki’s eyes were cold. He made hand seals and shouted, “Earth Style – Super Weighted Boulder Technique.”

The boulder’s speed increased by a few points and under the Super Weighted Boulder Technique’s boost, it increased in weight as well. The kinetic energy contained in the boulder multiplied significantly and it was about to hit Tonan’s head.

A proud smile appeared on Onoki’s face. “You didn’t dodge. It’s simply courting death. Do you truly think it’s just a piece of ordinary rock?”

The Leaf ninjas had the same thought. “It’s over…” But Tonan just slightly raised his right hand and made a gesture of knocking on the door. With a light tap on the huge boulder, a shocking scene took place.

Bang! Tonan smashed the huge boulder with a single touch. Rubbles and debris flew all around and fell to the ground, creating small and large craters. Onoki’s eyes were about to pop out and he exclaimed in disbelief, “How’s that possible!”

Ding! Gained Hyuga Koji’s acknowledgment… Gained Akimichi Enka’s acknowledgment… Gained Akimichi Doitsu’s acknowledgment… Nara Ebisu’s acknowledgment… Yamanaka Saki’s acknowledgment… A series of system prompts kept ringing in Tonan’s mind.

“Too… too strong…”

“Is this the strength that rivals the sannin…”

“Speaking of which, I also participated in the last Great Ninja War, but the sannin didn’t seem to be this powerful.”

“This fellow seemed to be using something similar to Tsunade’s monstrous strength.”

“Damn it, is this fellow’s ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu all this strong?”

Tonan patted the dust off his right hand and raised his head, “Little old man, you are already this old and still playing throwing stones at people.” He ignored the angry gazes of the Stone ninjas and turned to look at the Leaf ninjas behind him. He waved his hand and said with a warm look, “Shikaku-sama, let them retreat. It will affect my killing.”

“Huh?… yes…” Shikaku finally recovered from the shock. He nodded repeatedly and ordered, “Everyone, retreat, and make space for Tonan-sama to make a move.”

Since he appeared at the battleground, Tonan maintained an arrogant demeanor. But people’s feelings in different positions were different. The Leaf ninjas, for example, were feeling very good.

Just thinking about how their teammate was killing in all directions, crushing enemies to the ground, continuously spewing obscenities and sneering at them. Would anyone hate it? No, they would only feel a sense of security.

At this moment, Sandaime Kazekage was secretly controlling iron sand to spread toward Tonan from underground. Although the iron sand’s movement was concealed and undetectable to ordinary ninjas, Sandaime Kazekage knew that a powerhouse like Tonan would notice it.

Therefore, someone must become bait to distract him. “He’s just one person. His chakra is limited. As long as he’s killed, it’s equivalent to winning this battle. Everyone, don’t be afraid, and charge at him for me.”

With their Kazekage’s command, the Sand ninjas rushed toward Tonan even though they were scared. The Kazekage was unwilling to let his village’s ninjas die alone as Iwa’s ninja watched the play. He looked at Onoki who had flown to Iwa’s battlefront and said in a cold voice, “Tsuchikage-sama, we are allies.”

Onoki understood what he meant and shouted, “Stone ninjas, charge together.”

With his command, many ninjas rushed toward Tonan. “Charge.” “Kill him!”

Tonan, who was standing on the stone pillar with his hands crossed in front of his chest, watched the stream of people rushing towards him and muttered, “Sure enough, those who can become the village’s Kage are ruthless characters.”

The iron sand deep below the ground was too conspicuous to Tonan who had the Byakugan ability. The battlefield was too big, and the ordinary Hyuga clan members couldn’t see this far with their eyes. However, one point must not be forgotten—the Byakugan’s range was directly proportional to strength.

When the mighty crowd was about to reach him, Tonan leisurely made hand seals. He then yelled, “Senjutsu – Great Mud River.” Rumble… The entire battlefield shook violently. The ground that had been scorched by the Great Fire Annihilation softened at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the next moment, mud gushed out from below the stone pillar like a sea tide, rushing towards the charging crowd. The dark brown mud seethed like waves.

The enemy side shouted, “Earth Style – Great Mud Wall.” But the moment the great mud wall appeared, it was washed away by the incoming mud tide. Ordinary ninjutsu couldn’t compare with senjutsu. It was a qualitative difference.

Seeing the Great Mud Wall was useless, the ninjas were dumbfounded. They all came to a halt at once. Then, some chose to turn around and run away, while others chose to use ninjutsu to resist.

“Earth Style – Mud Wall Technique.”

“Water Style – Water Formation Wall Technique.”

“Damn it… I can only use fire-style…”

“It’s too late…. run to the mountain quickly.”

Regardless of the techniques, everything was useless. All the ninjas missed the best chance to escape because of a moment’s hesitation. The mud flow was incomparably violent and fast like a mighty force, chasing after the fleeing army.

In the blink of an eye, countless ninjas drowned. Amid countless screams, the mud flow continued towards the positions of the Iwa and Suna armies.
