Chapter 1239 Mysterious Flame
The Tailed Beast Spirits joined the battle without hesitation. Shangguan Mo rapidly formed hand seals, unleashing powerful ninjutsu, and streaks of flame shot towards the mysterious ninja. Starfall Scorpion, with its agile body, charged through the enemy ranks, piercing them with its sharp scorpion tail. The other Tailed Beast Spirits also displayed their unique abilities, some releasing whirlwinds, others summoning boulders, forcing the mysterious ninja into a retreat.
However, the mysterious ninjas seemed to have been prepared. They suddenly changed formation and surrounded the Konoha ninjas from all sides. One of the ninjas chanted incantations and summoned a group of huge black shadows, which quickly pounced on the Konoha ninjas. Upon seeing this, the Third Hokage immediately used ninjutsu to defend himself, and the other ninjas also rushed to his aid.
Just as the two sides were locked in a stalemate, Shangguan Mo suddenly sensed a powerful aura emanating from afar. A moment later, a familiar figure appeared in the plaza—it was Naruto. Upon seeing this, Naruto immediately joined the battle, unleashing his Nine-Tails Mode and releasing powerful chakra to dispel the shadowy figures of the mysterious ninjas.
With Naruto's arrival, the situation instantly turned around. Seeing the danger, the mysterious ninjas retreated. The Third Hokage ordered a pursuit, but the mysterious ninjas had already vanished without a trace. In the plaza, the Konoha ninjas cheered and celebrated their victory. Amidst the celebrations, Naruto walked up to Shangguan Mo, panting but excited: "Long time no see, Shangguan Mo! Looks like you've had a tough battle too!" Shangguan Mo patted Naruto on the shoulder and laughed: "Yeah, if you hadn't arrived in time, it would have been quite troublesome." At this moment, the Third Hokage approached, his expression serious: "This attack by the mysterious ninjas is definitely not simple; they seem to know everything about our actions." Everyone's smiles vanished upon hearing this. Suddenly, Xingyun Xuanxie sensed something amiss: "Everyone be careful! The aura hasn't completely disappeared!" Just as he finished speaking, the ground suddenly cracked open, and another group of mysterious ninjas burst forth, this time radiating even stronger chakra than before. The Third Hokage shouted, "Prepare for battle!" The Konoha ninjas quickly formed ranks, and the Tailed Beast Spirits once again gathered their power. A new fierce battle unfolded on the smoke-filled plaza. This time, the mysterious ninjas' offensive was even more ferocious. They coordinated perfectly, constantly unleashing advanced ninjutsu, leaving the Konoha ninjas somewhat overwhelmed. Naruto activated Nine-Tails Mode again, his powerful chakra surging towards the enemy like a tidal wave. Shangguan Mo fought alongside Xingyun Xuanxie, one using ninjutsu attacks, the other engaging in close combat. The battle grew increasingly intense, dust billowing across the plaza, the shouts of battle deafening. Just as the situation reached a stalemate again, a masked leader emerged from the mysterious ninja ranks. He formed hand seals, and a massive black hole appeared in the sky, a powerful suction force pulling everyone into it. The Third Hokage roared, concentrating all his power to resist this suction force. At the critical moment, Shangguan Mo suddenly came up with a plan. He had the Tailed Beast Spirits unleash their strongest ninjutsu together, creating a powerful counterforce. With everyone's concerted efforts, they finally withstood the black hole's suction. Seeing the situation was dire, the mysterious ninja leader and his men disappeared into the darkness once more. On the plaza, the Konoha ninjas, though exhausted, had unwavering determination in their eyes. They knew this crisis was far from over.
