Chapter 205 205: Anyone Who Can Become a Kage Isn’t a Fool
Hyuga Arin.
The three exchanged silent glances and immediately located the source of the voice.
Behind several Iwa ninja up ahead, one of them was shouting at the top of his lungs:
"Kill them!! Take down the Konoha Sannin!!"
You're acting pretty convincingly.
Even Ōnoki couldn't help but glance over. That murderous shout—clearly a die-hard loyalist of Iwagakure.
The other Iwa ninja just charged silently. At least this one had the sense to yell a slogan.
Still… Ōnoki had no impression of him. But with so many shinobi in the village, that wasn't unusual.
Arin roared as he rushed forward. The Iwa ninja in front of him were sent flying by Tsunade's punches, exposing him directly to the Sannin.
The surrounding Iwa ninja shot him sympathetic looks.
Even if the Sannin were exhausted, a dying camel was still bigger than a horse. They weren't opponents these Iwa ninja could handle alone.
Wait—where the hell is that hand going?!
All the Iwa ninja glared furiously.
Arin charged straight at Tsunade.
"Kuma Palm!"
A paw-shaped pad appeared in his hand as he slapped her square in the chest.
Where the hell are you grabbing?!
Tsunade's eyes flared with fury. She was just about to explode—
—and then she vanished.
Completely.
As if erased from existence.
Silence fell over the battlefield.
No one had expected that.
This guy just killed Konoha's Princess Tsunade?!
Even Orochimaru and Jiraiya were stunned.
Arin, however, was perfectly calm. He had used the Paw-Paw Fruit's repulsion to launch Tsunade straight toward Konoha.
As for the accidental chest grab—
Purely an accident.
Though, to be fair… Tsunade was indeed very well-endowed.
Jiraiya glared at Arin.
He'd accomplished what Jiraiya himself never had.
Unforgivable.
Is that really what you're focusing on right now?!
Arin didn't pause. He rushed at Jiraiya and Orochimaru.
Ōnoki finally reacted.
"Stop him!!! He's not Iwa!!!"
But Arin had already reached the two.
Two palms struck their bodies.
"Kuma Palm!"
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Jiraiya and Orochimaru disappeared into the air.
Gone.
Just like that.
The Iwa ninja, still processing what had happened, obeyed Ōnoki's order and charged forward with weapons raised.
Arin let out a small breath of relief.
Good thing they didn't open with ninjutsu.
Substitution Technique.
Whoosh!
He vanished.
"HYUGA ARIN!!!" Ōnoki roared, ascending rapidly to scan the horizon.
Soon enough, he spotted a tiny black dot in the distance.
Last time, he had chased that exact kind of dot. During wartime, no one wandered alone. A suddenly appearing speck meant only one thing.
Arin.
Arin looked up at the descending Ōnoki and formed a blade of dark flame in his hand.
"Time to level up."
Those few consecutive teleports had nearly drained him dry—especially launching the three Sannin.
Name: I Am Little Arin
Level: 43 (0/45500)
Chakra: 13610 / (11110 + bonuses)
Ōnoki landed and glared at him coldly.
"You dare face me directly, brat?"
Hand seals flashed.
"Earth Release: Earth Core Movement!"
The ground beneath Arin surged upward—
—and Arin vanished again.
…
Back on Mount Bifu, the Iwa forces were still stunned.
A scorched patch of ground suddenly ignited with black-blue flames—
Arin reappeared.
"It's Flame Demon Hyuga Arin!!" someone shouted.
Blue-black fire erupted from him.
He unleashed all remaining chakra.
"Fire Release: Nine-Headed Dragon Technique!!"
ROAR!!
A beastly bellow shook the mountain as massive torrents of flame exploded outward.
The Iwa ninja sensed danger and scattered instantly—but many were a step too slow and were swallowed by the inferno.
1054 / 5648 / 15478 / 865 / 5987…
Experience notifications flooded his vision.
At the same time, he consumed essence to replenish chakra.
"Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World!"
A massive transparent barrier formed just as the Nine-Headed Dragon rampaged, sealing it inside.
Ōnoki had returned in time.
"That old bastard's fast…"
Arin's figure vanished from within the flaming dragon.
"Haah!"
Ōnoki roared, disintegrating the entire Nine-Headed Dragon into atomic particles. The flames didn't even have time to spread.
Suddenly, he shifted backward—
A flaming spear tore through the air where he had just been.
He looked toward a distant mountain peak and saw a tiny black dot.
"Damn brat!"
Hand seals flew.
"Earth Release: Earth Core Movement!"
A chunk of land rose into the sky.
Ōnoki grabbed it.
"Earth Release: Ultra-Lightweight Rock Technique!"
He hurled the massive platform toward Arin—
"Earth Release: Ultra-Heavyweight Rock Technique!"
The floating slab suddenly gained immense weight.
Arin, waiting for Ōnoki to pursue him, looked up—
—and saw an entire island-sized shadow descending.
He didn't have the power to destroy something like that.
"That old geezer doesn't play fair!!"
Whoosh!
The massive slab crashed onto the mountaintop.
BOOOOOOM!!!
Trees snapped. Rock shattered. The mountain trembled like the end of the world.
The peak was reduced to rubble. Dust billowed, debris flew everywhere.
Ōnoki scanned carefully.
He didn't believe Arin was dead. He understood that teleportation mobility too well.
Sure enough—
A distant black dot appeared again.
Arin was throwing something.
Ōnoki clenched his teeth.
He glanced at the Iwa forces below.
If he chased, would Arin loop back and slaughter more?
He'd already done it once.
"Retreat!!"
He made his decision quickly.
…
In the distance, Arin prepared to circle back again—
Then saw Ōnoki flying away.
Just like that.
With the entire Iwa force.
"So decisive this time?!"
Arin fumed.
He'd hoped to bait the old man away and massacre another wave.
But Ōnoki didn't bite.
Arin wasn't satisfied.
His figure flickered—
Back to the ruined mountain peak.
Dust still hung thick in the air—perfect cover.
He stretched out both hands.
Massive flames condensed into twin spears.
Air pressure bubbles wrapped around them, doubling their size.
Entering Oni Mode—
He created a clone.
Using Kuma Palm to amplify force—
He hurled both flaming spears toward the retreating Iwa army with full power.
"Fire Release: Extreme Flame Spear!!"
