Chapter 651 The Shattered Hokage Rock

Konoha,

Having left Naruto's room, Giggs stood atop the Hokage Rock, the site of the Third Hokage's tomb, stroking his chin and gazing at the sky.

Behind it, a pair of huge, jet-black wings fluttered slowly, a sight that soon attracted the attention of the Dark Guard.

Before these secret agents could even surround them, they were knocked unconscious by a surging aura.

If anyone could clearly see Gigg now, they would surely see the faint black arcs of electricity surrounding him, a unique melody belonging to Conqueror's Haki.

Having regained his power, Gigg is no longer a being from a different dimension in the current ninja world.

Giger withdrew his gaze and stood on the Hokage Rock, beginning to look down upon the entire Hidden Leaf Village.

too small.

Konoha is ultimately just a village. To Gigg, who can destroy a country at will, this so-called number one ninja village in the ninja world is no different from a grain of sand.

At this moment, the Third Hokage in the Hokage Building also felt the terrifying pressure coming from the direction of the Hokage Rock.

The chakra crystal that had just formed inside Giger's body was emitting chakra fluctuations that far surpassed those of a Kage. The Third Hokage was covered in cold sweat and immediately flashed out of the office, rushing towards the Hokage Rock.

When he arrived at Hokage Rock, he saw the Anbu lying on the ground, and the tall figure standing on his own stone statue.

The figure's silhouette felt familiar, yet the profile was utterly unfamiliar. The Third Generation frowned, racking his brains to remember if he had ever seen Giger before.

Giggs didn't even turn his head, as if he hadn't noticed the arrival of the Third Generation. Suddenly, his black wings unfurled, shrouding the Third Generation in a huge shadow.

The Third Hokage was so startled by Gigg's actions that his nerves tensed up instantly. However, before he could react, Gigg's wings flapped, creating a powerful gust of air that sent the Hokage flying backward until he crashed heavily into a large tree before coming to a stop.

"Wow!"

The Third Hokage, who had slipped from the tree trunk and fallen to the ground, coughed up a mouthful of blood. Looking at his Hokage robe, which was stained with blood, his eyes were filled with horror.

too strong!

The aftershocks of just one action were enough to leave the Hokage in such a sorry state. What would it be like if the opponent were to attack seriously?

What's even more terrifying is that the person looked so young, probably only in his early twenties. When did such a monstrous talent appear in the ninja world? Even Madara Uchiha and the First Hokage back then weren't as outrageous as that person, were they?

What purpose does such a person have in coming to Konoha? If they are an enemy, how should Konoha deal with them?

In an instant, several thoughts flashed through the Third Hokage's mind like lightning. At this moment, a loud explosion mixed with the sound of shattering rang out. The Third Hokage came back to his senses. Without hesitation, he rushed back to his original position.

When he arrived at the spot, Gigg had already disappeared, leaving only the smoothed ground and his shattered Fire Shadow Rock.

At this moment, the Third Generation didn't care about the destruction of his statue. He recalled Gig's actions just now, and the large, black wings that had been spread out.

He suddenly looked up at the sky, his pupils contracting sharply.

The once thick clouds were now reduced to mere wisps of white smoke, clearly the result of being blasted apart by some immense force.

The third generation finally realized that the other party was just about to fly into the sky and had no intention of attacking him at all.

Realizing this, the third generation's heart sank to the bottom once again.

He had been a ninja for decades, and had never felt so powerless.

A figure flashed by and landed behind the silent Third Hokage; Danzo had arrived late.

Seeing the Anbu members lying unconscious on the ground and the Third Hokage looking ashen-faced, as if he had suffered a heavy blow, Danzo raised an eyebrow and asked...

"Hiruzen, what just happened here? I sensed a powerful chakra..."

The Third Hokage raised his hand to interrupt Danzo, turned around, and said in a deep voice.

“A powerful, unknown ninja has just arrived in Konoha, and he has already left.”

Upon hearing this, Danzo was about to press for details about where the so-called powerful ninja had gone, but when he saw the blood at the Third Hokage's mouth, his pupils constricted, and he exclaimed in alarm,

"You're injured?! You've already fought that person?"

The Third Hokage raised a hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, a bitter smile appearing on his face that Danzo couldn't decipher, and said,

"Fight? I, the Hokage, am not even considered a threat by them!"

"Nani?!"

A look of shock flashed across Danzo's eyes, and the Third Hokage continued slowly,

"That person was very young, with a pair of enormous black wings on his back. His strength was unfathomable. I was only thrown back by the aftershock of his flapping wings, cough cough..."

At this point, the Third Generation felt a sweet taste in his throat again, and almost spat out another mouthful of blood.

Seeing the Third Hokage in such a disheveled state, Danzo could hardly contain himself. If what the Third Hokage said was true, then the strength of the newcomer had probably reached a level that they could not comprehend.

In Danzo's memory, there were only two people with such strength: the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, and Madara Uchiha.

As a long-time colleague and close friend of Danzo for decades, the Third Hokage immediately saw what Danzo was thinking and spoke up.

"Even the First Hokage and Madara Uchiha back then probably couldn't compare to that person. That was an overwhelming power!"

Danzo trembled, and after a long silence, he spoke.

"So the other party didn't intend to attack Konoha, they were just passing by, right?"

The third generation sighed and said,

"That would be for the best. If he were to attack Konoha with his strength, I truly don't know what to do. I'm afraid I'd have no choice but to risk my old life and use the Corpse Demon Sealing Technique..."

As he spoke, the Third Hokage's eyes were filled with determination, while Danzo subconsciously touched his chest, then inexplicably felt a little embarrassed, thinking of the scene in front of the Second Hokage.

He hesitated for only a moment back then, but the Third Generation made a decision as decisively as he does now.

He would never forget the look in the Second Hokage's eyes when he looked at the Third Hokage. It was at that moment that he knew that in the Second Hokage's heart, the position of Hokage was no longer his.

Years later, a similar thing happened again, and the result was still the same.

He was still a step too slow...

Then, to the Third Hokage's astonishment, a strange flush suddenly appeared on Danzo's coffin-like face. He stared intently at the Third Hokage and said, word by word,

"Hiruzen, you're not the only one who knows sealing techniques. My sealing techniques might not be inferior to yours!"
