Naruto: Five Lives, Five Times the Excitement

Chapter 66 Ino-Shika-Cho Attack

"Lord Orochimaru, the enemy is only a kilometer away and is rapidly approaching!"

A Hyuga clan ninja approached Orochimaru to report the latest information.

Orochimaru stopped, took out a map and glanced at it, discovering that they were in a plain called Kizakihara.

There are no forests or mountains here, and the view is wide open, making it unsuitable for defense.

However, the military situation is urgent, and there is no time to choose a battlefield now.

"They actually made it to this position. These Sand Ninja must have been advancing with all their might and haven't had a proper rest these past few days."

Orochimaru assessed the battlefield situation and decisively gave the order.

"The entire army should launch an attack, taking advantage of the enemy's fatigue, and crush them in one fell swoop!"

"Yes!"

The Konoha ninjas also rushed here at breakneck speed, and haven't had a proper rest in the past few days.

However, they have not experienced combat, so their combat capabilities are relatively complete.

Moreover, they are currently defending the Land of Fire, so their morale is high.

Moments later, the Sand Village's scout ninja also discovered the Leaf Village's ninja army.

"Lord Yekura, the enemy is charging towards us!"

Ye Cang raised an eyebrow, showing no concern whatsoever, but rather a surge of fighting spirit.

"Finally, we've encountered a formidable foe. I wonder who the commander is."

Who else could it be but the Hokage himself and the three advisors? Only Orochimaru and Jiraiya have the prestige and ability to serve as commanders.

This is only the early stage of the war. The Hokage will certainly not leave Konoha easily, and the three advisors, who are assisting the Hokage, are unlikely to come over either.

So, the one they encountered this time was either Jiraiya or Orochimaru.

Hehe, if Jiraiya comes, I'll deliberately use the Rasengan. I wonder what kind of expression Jiraiya will have then.

Imagining Jiraiya's shocked expression, Sensuke volunteered.

"Teacher, leave the enemy commander to me. We'll crush them in one fell swoop!"

Even after becoming the perfect One-Tailed Jinchuriki, Sensuke still felt he couldn't defeat Jiraiya.

But this is war, and there are so many Sand Ninja around. We can't say anything discouraging. Instead, we have to boast about our strength and boost morale.

Yecang nodded and immediately gave the order to attack.

"We possess the perfect Jinchūriki; let's crush Konoha in one fell swoop!"

"Crush Konoha!"

Encouraged, the Sand Ninja followed Sensuke and charged towards the Konoha Ninja.

The sky is blue, the wild is vast.

The flat and vast Kizaki Plain, with its lush wild grasses swaying in the breeze, was once a fertile land, but now it is destined to be a river of blood.

"kill!"

"rush!"

When the two armies met, there was no confrontation, no questioning or debate, and no mutual respect.

Everyone had a ferocious look on their faces, wielding the most lethal weapons, charging fearlessly with only one purpose: to kill.

Kill more people!

Sensuke, standing at the forefront of the Sand Village ninja, looked at the Konoha ninjas so close at hand and laughed heartily.

"Hahaha, One-Tail, it's your happy day again, go crazy to your heart's content!"

The enormous One-Tailed Shukaku had just appeared on the battlefield when it swept its tail across, sending nearby Konoha ninja flying, and let out a triumphant scream.

"Haha, the great Shukaku has appeared again! Little insects, wail in fear!"

Chisuke stood on Shukaku's head, reminding Shukaku of this.

"Hey, this enemy is probably not simple. You'd better be careful and not get defeated."

However, Shukaku, caught up in his excitement, completely ignored Chisuke's words.

Chisuke, seeing that Shukaku ignored him, shrugged and stopped trying to persuade him.

Such arrogance, just wait and see what happens.

Upon seeing the ferocious Shukaku, the Sand Village ninja cheered enthusiastically.

"Great! We're going to win this time!"

The Konoha ninjas were unable to resist Shukaku and could only retreat continuously.

Despite the unfavorable situation, Orochimaru stood at the back, not rushing into the fray. His cold eyes reflected the image of Shukaku.

He was waiting, waiting for all the Sand Ninja's fighting force to appear on the battlefield, waiting to confirm that the Sand Ninja had no traps.

As for the Konoha ninjas who died, they were merely pawns in his game, expendable resources. As long as their deaths were worthwhile, Orochimaru didn't care about casualties.

Cold-blooded and ruthless, that's Orochimaru's command style.

"Lord Orochimaru, let's go on stage!"

Seeing that the Konoha ninjas were at risk of collapse, Nara Shikaku, Akimichi Choza, and Yamanaka Inoichi immediately requested to go into battle.

These pieces have limited strength; it's time to deploy larger pieces.

Orochimaru was silent for two seconds, then nodded.

Konoha's elite Jonin, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, are on the move!

"The Art of Mind Transference!"

What's going on? Why hasn't the enemy commander shown up yet?

Sensuke crossed his arms and watched as Shukaku had already killed dozens of Konoha ninjas and was chasing them in a chaotic retreat. Suddenly, he felt a wave of dizziness.

"You're under my control now, don't even think about continuing to act so arrogantly."

A somewhat magnetic, very pleasant, and serious voice appeared in Chisuke's mind.

Huh? Is the Ino-Shika-Cho trio here?

The art of turning your mind around, huh? How adorably foolish.

In the realm of the mind, Chisuke stands before Shukaku, amusement on his face.

"Tsk tsk tsk, a little bug has come in, Shukaku. This is your first guest, so you'd better treat it well."

"Hahahaha! Come out, little bug, I'll give you a good welcome!"

Shukaku stretched out its huge right hand, and a sealing technique appeared on its arm. Then it grabbed at the void in front of it and pulled out the young ninja.

Long yellow hair, green vest, red cape.

The key point is that he has a handsome face, and his looks are only slightly worse than Chisuke's.

This is Yamanaka Ino's father, Yamanaka Inoichi!

Chisuke laughed maliciously.

"Don't you know? Shukaku is a master of sealing techniques. It's easy for your spiritual power to get here, but it's extremely difficult for you to get out."

"Damn it, I never expected you to be a perfect Jinchūriki, able to perfectly enslave the One-Tailed Beast!!"

Yamanaka Inoichi struggled desperately, but found he couldn't break free, so he tried to sow discord between the tailed beast and Chisuke.

If the relationship between the Tailed Beast and its Jinchūriki is not harmonious, their strength will be greatly reduced.

Shukaku snorted disdainfully and began to exert force with his palm, gradually squeezing Yamanaka Inoichi.

"Cunning humans, do you think I'm a fool? Savor the taste of pain!"

Screams echoed continuously from within the mental space.

On the battlefield, Sensuke and Shukaku seemed to have fallen asleep for a moment, their heads bowed and their eyes closed.

Nara Shikaku was overjoyed and said to Akimichi Choza beside him, "Inoichi's ninjutsu was a success, it's our turn to make our move!"

Choza Akimichi swallowed a pill, looked at the massive body of the One-Tailed Beast, and nodded with a resolute expression.

"it is good!"

Nara Shikaku quickly formed hand seals: "Shadow Shackles!"

The shadow beneath his feet moved swiftly across the ground like a venomous snake, quickly connecting to the massive shadow beneath the tailed beast's feet. Then, it split into hundreds of shadows, tightly coiling around Shukaku's limbs.

"Multiply Technique!"

With a loud shout, Akimichi Choza transformed into a giant almost the size of Shukaku.

He raised his fist high, creating a shockwave, and slammed it down hard on Shukaku's head.

The Ino-Shika-Cho trio's target is not the One-Tailed Shukaku, but the One-Tailed Jinchūriki—Chisuke!
