Chapter 168 Shocked Everyone
As the earth-shaking roar of the Nine-Tailed Fox got closer and closer, the originally peaceful and harmonious Konoha Village instantly fell into chaos.
Fear surged in like a tide, sweeping through every corner at an alarming speed, completely shattering the peace in people's hearts.
The villagers were terrified, their faces were distorted, and their eyes were full of despair and helplessness.
They ran around like headless flies, desperately looking for a safe place to escape the catastrophe.
At this moment, the air was filled with the pungent smell of scorched earth, mixed with a suffocating atmosphere of tension.
This smell seems to be the messenger of death, ruthlessly eroding people's hearts.
The whole village seemed to be covered by a thick curtain of darkness, making it hard to breathe.
On the top floor of the Hokage Building, stood the weathered but still majestic Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen.
He frowned and stared solemnly at the terrifying existence that was approaching in the distance.
He thought to himself, "Kushina's seal has been broken? We took so many precautions, but we still couldn't stop this from happening..."
"Immediately gather all ninjas who can participate in the battle. We must not let the Nine-Tails succeed!" His face was solemn and he gave orders in a low and firm voice.
The Anbu ninjas were like ghosts, moving quickly in the Hokage Building and the surrounding areas.
They act quickly and silently, delivering orders quickly to every corner.
At the same time, a steady stream of urgent information poured into the Hokage room like a tide, making the already tense atmosphere even more solemn.
The huge and ferocious figure of the Nine-Tailed Fox was clearly visible.
It ran rampant, leaving devastation wherever it passed. Houses collapsed and turned into ruins, raging flames shot up into the sky, and thick smoke billowed.
The miserable howling sounds continued, piercing people's hearts.
The scene before me was horrifying, and I couldn't help but feel endless grief and anger in my heart.
"Reporting to Lord Hokage, the Nine-Tails is approaching the central square of the village fiercely, and it has already caused immeasurable damage to the village on its way!" An Anbu ninja knelt on one knee, looking extremely anxious, and reported the latest battle situation to Sarutobi Hiruzen at a very fast speed.
Upon hearing the news, Sarutobi Hiruzen stood up suddenly, his deep eyes flashing with determination.
He just waved his hand and said decisively:
"Immediately activate the emergency evacuation plan and ensure the safe evacuation of the villagers."
"In addition, I will personally lead a team of elite ninjas to stop the Nine-Tails. No matter how great the cost, we must protect our homeland!"
After saying that, he walked towards the door with firm and powerful steps, followed closely by a group of equally brave and fearless ninjas.
On the Hokage Rock, Minato stared into the distance.
"Carrying the name of Hokage and protecting the people of Konoha Village, this is my unshirkable responsibility and mission now!" Namikaze Minato murmured in a low voice, his thoughts surging like a tide.
"We can't let the Nine-Tailed Fox and that tiger-masked man continue to do whatever they want!" Namikaze Minato clenched his fists tightly, his eyes becoming increasingly fierce.
At this moment, the Nine-Tailed Fox opened its bloody mouth, accumulating terrifying energy.
An extremely huge tailed beast ball took shape in an instant and blasted towards Minato Namikaze with the force of thunder.
Faced with such a fierce attack, Minato Namikaze did not dare to be negligent in the slightest.
He quickly formed seals with his hands, preparing to perform ninjutsu to deflect the fatal blow.
At the critical moment, a figure rushed over like lightning and blocked the Tailed Beast Ball. It was Yu Xi!
She raised her foot without hesitation and kicked the Tailed Beast Ball hard.
With a loud bang, the Tailed Beast Ball was kicked high into the sky, followed by a shocking explosion.
Looking at everything that happened before his eyes, Namikaze Minato was filled with gratitude: "Lord Yuxi! Thank you for your help!"
Just when Minato Namikaze breathed a sigh of relief, a dangerous aura came from behind.
His heart tightened and he immediately turned around and fought back.
Unexpectedly, his attack went through the opponent's body without any hindrance.
It turned out that the man behind him was the tiger-skin masked man.
Seeing that his move failed, the man in the tiger mask did not get discouraged. Instead, he took the opportunity to launch his divine power and tried to forcibly pull Minato Namikaze into the alternate dimension.
But after all, Minato Namikaze is a veteran of many battles and has very quick reactions.
The moment he felt the fluctuation of space, he decisively used the Flying Thunder God Technique.
His figure disappeared without a trace in a flash, and he successfully moved to the place where the Flying Thunder God Kunushiki was located which had been arranged in advance.
A ray of extremely astonishing light suddenly flashed across Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes, which had experienced countless storms and been tempered by the years.
This ray of light seemed to break the boundaries of time and space, making the whole world tremble.
He slowly raised his head, his eyes seeming to penetrate the clouds and shoot straight to the distant sky.
His voice was deep and powerful, containing irrepressible excitement and deep awe: "Lord Yuxi, your generosity and help will be forever remembered by all of us in Konoha Village!"
Hearing these words, the surrounding ninjas and villagers were stunned at first, and then expressions of shock appeared on their faces.
But then, this shock turned into endless respect for the mysterious Lord Yu Xi.
Whispers began to be heard among the crowd, some people whispered, recounting the legendary deeds of Yu Xi that had been passed down from their ancestors.
At this moment, the man wearing a tiger skin mask standing on the side.
His heart was like a raging sea stirred up by a strong wind, and he could not calm down for a long time.
He was well aware of Yu Xi's unfathomable power.
He still remembered that when Uchiha Madara saved him from the brink of life and death, he told him the truth in person.
Uchiha Madara said solemnly: "In the entire ninja world, the most powerful person is Yuxi, the God of Taijutsu. Even if I, Uchiha Madara, and Senju Hashirama fight together, I am afraid we cannot defeat her!"
Unexpectedly, Yu Xi, who was known as the God of Physical Exercises, disappeared without any warning. What kind of incident had happened to him?
Thinking of this, he tried his best to suppress the fear that kept surging from the depths of his heart.
Without any hesitation, he resolutely displayed his divine power.
Just as he was about to successfully disappear into thin air, a sudden thought flashed through his mind like lightning: Fighting against the God of Taijutsu? Wouldn't that be courting death? It would be better to focus all his energy on dealing with Minato Namikaze.
"After all, if we can successfully eliminate Minato Namikaze, it will undoubtedly deal a heavy blow to Konoha Village, greatly weakening its overall defense capabilities."
So, he made a prompt decision, changed direction, and directed his attack directly at Minato Namikaze...
"Should I save Minato? It seems I have no obligation to do so! It seems I saved Kushina because of Mito, oh no! Never mind, let's have some fun first!" Yu Xi thought.
She looked at Kyuubi, the corners of her mouth rising slightly.
