Chapter 1272 Persistence is victory
The three's combined attack hurtled towards the mysterious figure like a dazzling meteor, but the figure merely smiled contemptuously, raising a hand to unleash a black vortex that devoured their attack. Immediately afterward, the mysterious figure formed hand seals, and countless dark tentacles surged from the ground, tightly binding the three. Naruto gritted his teeth, trying to break free, but the tentacles tightened their grip.
Just as they were feeling despair, a mysterious power suddenly descended. It turned out to be the convergence of the wills of the Hokage throughout the ages, transforming into a golden light that flowed into the three of them. Naruto's Nine-Tails chakra surged instantly, Sasuke's Rinnegan shone brightly, and the cosmic energy in Shangguan Mo's hand became even more boundless.
They broke free from the tentacles' restraints and attacked again. This time, the three's power merged perfectly, forming an unstoppable torrent of energy that pierced through the mysterious man's defenses. Struck by this force, the mysterious man's body gradually dissipated. As the mysterious man vanished, the monsters also turned to ashes. Peace was restored to the ninja world, and the three became legendary heroes.
However, as everyone celebrated their victory, a mysterious spatial rift suddenly appeared in the sky. Emerging from it was a being far more powerful than the previous mysterious figure, radiating a chilling aura. He coldly said, "You thought it was over after you defeated him? Too naive." Naruto's eyes instantly hardened. He looked at Sasuke and Shangguan Mo, saying, "We will not let the ninja world fall into danger again." The three assumed their fighting stances once more. This time, the enemy was stronger, their attacks more ferocious. Although the three fought with all their might, they gradually began to feel the strain. Just as the enemy was about to launch a fatal blow, the will of the past Hokage rallied once more. Simultaneously, ninjas from all over the ninja world rushed to the scene, their combined power of conviction forming an even stronger force. Empowered by this force, the three rallied again, launching a final attack alongside the others. In a flash of light, the enemy was utterly defeated, and the ninja world truly ushered in a long period of peace. It was thought that this peace would last forever, but a few years later, the tranquil ninja world was suddenly shattered by a strange fluctuation. Dark clouds filled the sky, and eerie runes flickered with a ghostly light. Naruto and the others sensed something amiss and quickly regrouped. At that moment, a mysterious voice echoed in their minds: "This is just the beginning; the real challenge is yet to come." Immediately afterward, countless bizarre monsters surged from the ground, their strength no less than that of the mysterious figure from before. The group was once again plunged into a fierce battle. Despite the will of the past Hokage and the unwavering faith of the ninja world, the monsters surged relentlessly like a tide. Just as everyone was exhausted, an ancient power hidden in the shadows was awakened. It was the ancient divine beast once sealed deep within the ninja world. Sensing the crisis, it decided to intervene. Under the divine beast's immense power, the monsters were gradually annihilated, and the ninja world was once again freed from crisis. This also made everyone realize that the road to protecting the ninja world was still long.
A legend is a legend because you possess qualities that no one else can ever match.
For example, Kakashi's persistence, Obito's obsession, and Guy's...
