Chapter 196 - Chapter 196: Collision in the Ancient City of Roran

"Fourth Hokage, what's wrong?" Onoki asked.

"I'm very sorry to interrupt, but I feel like the seal I set in Roran has been broken."

"Roran, the country with the Dragon Vein?"

"The Dragon Vein is the lifeblood of Daichi. It holds Chakra far beyond what other places in Daichi possess. If used carelessly, it could very well destroy all of Daichi." Gaara frowned, "And it seems to be at this specific time..."

"May I ask, Fourth Hokage, what kind of seal did you place in Roran?" Terumi Mei asked.

"The Eight Trigrams Seal!" Tsunade rested her chin on her hand, looking serious.

The Eight Trigrams Seal is a very famous sealing jutsu in the ninja world. Besides the Dead Demon Consuming Seal and Chibaku Tensei, there are likely no other sealing jutsus that surpass it. Even in the entire ninja world, very few people can open this seal.

"Is it a coincidence?"

"No. In any case, the Dragon Vein is of great importance. We should ask the Fourth Hokage to go there," Gaara said.

"Just in case, the Fourth Hokage should bring a few Kage with him," Onoki said very seriously, glancing at Minato.

At this critical juncture, the conflicts and hatred between villages are no longer important. If they continue to scheme against each other, the enemy could easily take advantage of their weakness.

Especially powerful combatants like the 'Kage', who are the highest combat power of the Five Great Ninja Villages, must not be taken lightly.

"I understand," Minato said earnestly, and the next moment, he vanished from everyone's sight.

"In that case, even severely injured ninja can receive timely treatment." Aye, looking at Minato who disappeared in an instant, a smile appeared on his normally serious face.

"Yes, the Flying Thunder God is truly a convenient skill. Not only can it quickly eliminate enemies, but it can also send severely injured ninja to the rear immediately," Terumi Mei said.

"But there's still one problem: what if the injured ninja doesn't have a Flying Thunder God tag on them?" Gaara said calmly.

"That's where we'll rely on Mabui from Kumogakure. Her Celestial Transfer Jutsu can transmit any item at light speed to any location. If that happens, we can just have her send the Fourth Hokage's Flying Thunder God kunai," Aye said decisively.

"Very good. Next is the sensory unit."

"Regarding that, Xi from Kumogakure is excellent. She possesses illusion, healing, and sensory abilities, making her an all-around elite jonin," Aye recommended first.

Even though they are fighting together, they still need to maintain their pride.

"If that's the case, then Ao from Kirigakure can also join. His abilities are good, and with the Byakugan he obtained from the battlefield, he's perfect for sensing," Mei said.

"Tch, using our Konoha's Byakugan to show off," Tsunade muttered, looking at Mei.

"If that's the case, then I'll recommend someone too," Tsunade said with a smile.

"Her name is Uzumaki Karin. She's a descendant of the Uzumaki Clan. Although her combat power is low, her sensory ability is very powerful. She can sense things within a radius of dozens of kilometers. Additionally, if she has a specific known Chakra, she can sense its exact location and movement."

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet, and everyone stared at Tsunade as if they were stunned.

Dozens of kilometers radius?

That sensory ability is excessively powerful!

"You don't need to react like that," Tsunade said with a laugh, clearly pleased with their expressions.

The others exchanged glances and immediately changed the subject. There was no comparison.

"Finally, that's the combat unit."

...

"What are you guys doing?"

Inside the central tower of Roran, when Minato, the Third Raikage, and the Second Tsuchikage arrived, the purple pillar of light had already begun to dim. Obito and the other two, who had just been engulfed, slowly got up from the ground.

Although it felt like a long time had passed for them, in reality, only a few minutes had gone by.

"It seems we've been discovered. Hmm, that face... are you... Namikaze Minato?"

"What?!"

The words spoken by the man in the red robe stunned everyone. The man with the pale blue face had noticed him the moment Minato appeared, but he had suppressed the shock with immense willpower.

Even so, his gaze remained fixed on Minato, filled with deep bewilderment.

Like him, Obito, after confirming multiple times that he wasn't hallucinating or under an illusion, finally accepted one fact.

That his teacher, Namikaze Minato, had been resurrected.

"Even the Second Tsuchikage and the Third Raikage... what on earth is going on?"

For a moment, the air seemed to freeze. The two groups stood facing each other, neither making the first move.

"You, the masked one? It was your doing, wasn't it? Speak! Why did you come all the way to the Roran ruins? Are you after the Dragon Vein?!"

The Raikage's fiery temper seemed to be passed down through generations. Upon seeing the masked man who had appeared at the Kage Summit, he immediately recalled the incident where Killer Bee was almost captured. He felt an immediate urge to tear Obito into pieces.

"The Dragon Vein? I have no interest in that. Only you would worry about such an infinitesimally weak power," Obito sneered.

"Hmph! Sharp-tongued. I don't think we need to wait for the Fourth Great Ninja War. I'll smash you to pieces right here today."

Whoosh!

The Third Raikage, protected by his Lightning Release armor, instantly appeared before Obito. His four fingers were pressed together in his palm, heavily charged with Chakra, like an unstoppable sharp spike.

Hell Stab: Four-Finger Hand Spear!

Obito calmly watched the Third Raikage pass through his body and said faintly, "Don't waste your energy."

"Stop the nonsense!" The Third Raikage slid his feet, instantly turning around, and charged at Obito again.

"I don't particularly like this guy either, but I can't let you act so recklessly," the man in the red robe grinned, clenching his fists.

"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame-Tear!"

"Dust Release: Elemental Separation Technique!"

Before the fire dragon could reach the Third Raikage, a pillar-shaped white barrier descended from the sky, instantly annihilating it.

The Dust Release continued its momentum, charging towards the red-robed man.

"Dust Release is truly powerful," the red-robed man chuckled, his body gradually sinking and disappearing into the ground.

Boom!

A deafening explosion echoed. Under the onslaught of the Dust Release, everything in its path was turned to dust.

Meanwhile, the Third Raikage had reached Obito from behind, increasing his speed, but once again passed through him.

"I told you, it's useless! Fire Release: Frenzy..."

Whoosh!

Just as Obito was about to seize the opportunity to attack the Third Raikage, a kunai flew towards him. Obito's eyes narrowed, and he quickly used another kunai to knock it away.
