Chapter 95: The Child of the Divine Tree, Guruguru

A full moon hung high in the night sky, casting a pristine glow over the forest and the earth.

Deep into the night, when all creatures should be asleep.

But tonight, under the moonlight, the Mountain Graveyard was filled with the sounds of explosions and battle cries, erupting into an unprecedented fierce battle.

Looking down from mid-air.

Two towering Susanoo, one green and one blue, controlled by Shisui and Fugaku respectively, were fighting amidst a swarm of White Zetsu.

Additionally, a hundred Uchiha ninjas gathered around the two Susanoo, fighting together against an army of thousands of White Zetsu.

This was a battle filled with blood and fire.

These White Zetsu, cultivated using Hashirama's cells, were numerous and brutal, akin to zombies.

They didn't need to eat, sleep, or use the restroom, they didn't feel pain, and they could absorb a ninja's chakra, making them extremely difficult to deal with.

However, their opponents were not to be underestimated.

They were the Uchiha clan, self-proclaimed as the strongest in the ninja world.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

Hachidai, Inohi, Tetsuhi, and a dozen other Uchiha clan members stood in a line, forming seals simultaneously. They then opened their mouths and released a row of massive fireballs.

Like a wall of fire, it pushed forward.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle.

Wherever it passed, hundreds of White Zetsu were burned by the intense flames, turning into ashes, and the surrounding forest was also set ablaze.

The fire soared into the sky, illuminating the night.

This was the Fire Release Technique that made the Uchiha clan renowned in the ninja world.

On the other side.

Izumi held a kunai, dealing with several White Zetsu attacking her simultaneously.

Whoosh.

Her movements were agile and swift. Her Sharingan spun rapidly, and with the dynamic vision of the three tomoe, she successfully avoided all enemy attacks.

She then launched a counterattack, severing the arms and legs of several White Zetsu, knocking them to the ground.

Huff.

Izumi let out a sigh of relief. Just as she relaxed, a White Zetsu that had fallen at her feet, with only half its body left, suddenly sprang up. Its body coiled around her like a snake.

Izumi was taken aback, feeling her chakra rapidly draining from her body. She lost her strength and couldn't break free for a moment.

Just then.

Whoosh.

Itachi arrived in time. A flash of cold light passed, and he stabbed his ninja blade into the White Zetsu's head, causing it to slowly collapse to the ground, motionless.

"These guys have strong vitality. Make sure to check carefully and ensure that you've killed them."

He warned Izumi with a serious face.

"Okay." Izumi solemnly took the lesson to heart, and the two began to fight side by side.

On the outskirts of the battlefield.

Uchiha Ken rushed towards Tsunade, shouting:

"Dr. Tsunade, be careful, I'll protect you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he approached Tsunade and suddenly launched a surprise attack!

After absorbing a human ninja's chakra, a White Zetsu can use transformation techniques to disguise itself as the person and infiltrate the crowd, aiming to take out the most important, but also the weakest personnel.

For example, medical ninjas who are generally not good at combat.

Unfortunately, this White Zetsu picked the wrong target

this time.

Hm?

Tsunade, seeing Uchiha Ken charging towards her, raised an eyebrow, easily dodged his attack, and then threw a powerful punch.

It landed heavily on Ken's face, causing his entire face to cave in.

Boom!

Ken was sent flying, revealing his true form in the process, and finally crashed into a mountain wall, creating a human-shaped hole.

This scene left the nearby White Zetsu dumbfounded, and for a moment, they didn't dare to attack Tsunade.

The Uchiha were equally shocked. Dr. Tsunade's strength was so formidable, almost on par with the clan leader. It was truly unexpected.

In reality, Tsunade had only used fifty percent of her strength.

Seeing the White Zetsu that she had sent flying turn into a tree due to the uncontrollable Wood Release chakra, Tsunade couldn't help but frown.

Just how many of these things had the mastermind behind the Mountain Graveyard cultivated using Hashirama's cells?

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She charged into a group of White Zetsu and started beating them up.

These White Zetsu were different from humans. When injured or killed, they didn't bleed or emit a bloody smell. They only turned into white cellular tissue scattered all over the ground, or transformed into large trees.

Thanks to this, Tsunade's hemophobia didn't act up, allowing her to fully exert her strength.

At this moment.

Everyone was fighting bravely and killing enemies.

Except for Dan.

He leaped up the mountain wall several times, finally reaching the top of the cliff, where he could overlook the entire battlefield.

Where was Obito?

Dan looked around for a while but didn't see Obito. It seemed he really wasn't there.

If Obito wasn't here, then he was probably with the Akatsuki in Amegakure.

Which meant...

Had the Uchiha stolen his home while Obito hadn't reacted?

Thinking of this, Dan couldn't help but laugh.

This battle was much easier than he had imagined. He didn't need to lift a finger; the Uchiha below were more than capable of taking down the Mountain Graveyard.

So, he decided to sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor.

Dan sat down and watched the Uchiha clan fight valiantly below.

As time passed.

The hundred elite Uchiha indeed demonstrated their formidable combat power, gradually suppressing the White Zetsu, whose numbers were ten times their own. The White Zetsu crawling out from the holes in the ground were also becoming fewer and fewer.

In this process, although the Uchiha inevitably suffered some casualties, it was still within an acceptable range.

Just when the war seemed to be losing suspense.

Suddenly, a strange White Zetsu ran out from underground, looking around.

Seeing the Uchiha ninjas around him, he opened his mouth in surprise and exclaimed, "Wow, so many guests have come. It's so lively."

After saying that, he actually started doing warm-up exercises on the spot, shouting "One, two, one, two."

He was warming up.

Unlike the other White Zetsu, this one seemed to have more self-awareness, and had a unique spiral-shaped body and face.

Two Uchiha ninjas noticed this White Zetsu.

They exchanged a glance, reached a silent agreement, and immediately charged at it from both sides, intending to take down this suspicious creature.

"Wow, you're actually ambushing me. That's so mean. Don't hit me, I surrender!"

It was quite scared, quickly raising both hands over its head, standing foolishly in place waiting for its fate.

Seeing this, the two Uchiha couldn't help but chuckle, feeling a sense of contempt.

However.

Just as they were about to kill this White Zetsu, its raised hands suddenly dropped and thrust forward.

Whoosh, whoosh.

Two wooden spikes shot out from its palms, lightning-fast, piercing the two Uchiha and running them through.

The next second.

The spikes that had penetrated the Uchiha's bodies instantly branched out into dozens of wooden spikes, turning the two into bloody flowers of Wood Release on the spot.

Brutal yet beautiful.

Wood Release: Piercing Branch Technique.

After easily dealing with the two Uchiha, it clapped its hands happily, then leaped onto the massive animal skeleton in the center of the graveyard.

"Listen to me, everyone stop fighting!"

He waved his hand vigorously, calling out to the Uchiha and the White Zetsu. Surprisingly, it worked, causing both sides to temporarily cease their attacks.

The Uchiha were surprised, unsure of his identity. The remaining White Zetsu seemed to obey his command.

After attracting everyone's attention.

"Cough, cough."

He cleared his throat and announced loudly, "My name is Tobi, but if you don't recognize that character, you can call me by my nickname, Guruguru. By the way, I really like my nickname."

After a brief self-introduction, Guruguru looked curiously at the Uchiha under their puzzled gazes, then started asking incessantly:

"Your eyes look like someone I know, are you from his clan too?

And, I really want to ask you humans, what does it feel like to poop? With so many of you, surely someone can answer me, please."

After speaking, Guruguru touched the back of his head, looking both embarrassed and expectant.

What was this guy talking about?

Fugaku frowned, having no interest in answering Guruguru's bizarre question. He directly commanded his Susano'o to attack, throwing a large blue orb.

Whoosh!

The orb hit the unsuspecting Guruguru, knocking him off the skeleton and onto the ground in a heap.

But in less than a second.

"Wow, that hurts!"

He yelled, jumping up from the ground as if nothing had happened.

The Uchiha were taken aback, realizing this guy was no ordinary foe.

"Everyone, stand back. I'll handle him."

Fugaku ordered in a deep voice, once again commanding his Susano'o to attack. The two skeletal hands swung, intending to catch Guruguru and crush him alive.

"That's so unfair, using such a big guy against me."

Guruguru dodged left and right, slipping around like an eel, avoiding Susano'o's grasp. Then he shouted, "Luckily, I have a bigger one!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

Boom.

A large tree suddenly sprouted from beneath his feet, instantly growing to twenty meters high, and transforming into a wooden statue of a giant with five heads.

Bang.

The giant, three times larger than Susano'o, kicked Fugaku's Susano'o away, showing the gap in their powers.

"Hahaha."

Guruguru stood on top of the giant's head, hands on his hips, laughing triumphantly. Then he snapped his fingers with a "pop".

Hum, hum, hum.

The giant's five heads opened their mouths, generating a strong chakra fluctuation. It was the five basic nature transformations: Water, Fire, Wind, Lightning, and Earth.

The next second.

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

After brewing, the wooden giant launched the five nature transformations, which fell among the crowd, turning into indiscriminate bombing.

In an instant, the Uchiha ninjas and a large number of White Zetsu were unable to dodge and were blown away.

"Sigh."

Guruguru sighed, crossed his arms, and muttered, "Still no one answered my question. What does it feel like to poop? I guess it must be similar to the thrill of killing."

In the distance, Tsunade was shocked.

Because she recognized that the giant beneath Guruguru's feet was one of the highest level Wood Release techniques.

The technique that transforms into a human form, descends to the human world, and shatters people filled with karma, this is the Wood Human Technique of the First Hokage.

This technique requires the genes of Hashirama Senju and a massive amount of chakra to perform. Tsunade had never seen anyone other than the First Hokage capable of using this technique.

Who exactly is this Guruguru?!

"Clan leader, I'll help you!"

Seeing Fugaku being blown away, Shisui immediately came to assist. His Susano'o's chest plate opened, revealing a massive orange orb inside.

This move was originally intended to be used against Dan, but it was destroyed by a single punch from him. Now, finally, there was a chance to use it.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

As Susano'o's chest plate opened, countless green chakra arrows were fired from the center, raining down on the wooden giant like a storm.

Susano'o: Ninety-Nine.

Fugaku also steadied himself, manipulating his own Susano'o, and threw a series of orbs at the wooden giant, launching a long-range bombardment.

Yasaka Magatama.

"It's two against one again, you humans are so despicable, so shameless!"

Guruguru protested loudly, but faced with the simultaneous attack of two Susano'o, he didn't falter at all. He controlled the wooden giant, launching countless Wood Release punches.

True Thousand Hands.

Boom, boom, boom, boom!

Chakra arrows, orbs, Wood Release punches, the three collided violently, exploding and annihilating each other.

The resulting shockwave turned into a hurricane, sweeping across the entire mountain graveyard.

He was able to hold his own against two Susano'o with his own power.

Guruguru's formidable strength once again shocked the Uchiha.

Even Dan was taken aback.

Guruguru, worthy of being the child of the God Tree's bud, born from the Gedo Statue, was the most powerful individual among all the White Zetsu.

Compared to the mass-produced inferior White Zetsu, he was on a completely different level.

In the original story, Guruguru, while controlling Yamato - also known as Tenzō, had held off the Five Kage and thousands of ninja, fought evenly with the reanimated Third Hokage, battled Team Taka, and even resisted Orochimaru's curse mark.

Although he didn't have a puppet like Yamato now, his own strength was still not to be underestimated.

If the fight continued like this, Guruguru would probably not be able to defeat the elite of the Uchiha clan. Not to mention, the two wielders of the Mangekyo Sharingan hadn't even used their full power yet.

But after the battle, Guruguru would definitely cause significant casualties to the Uchiha.

That wouldn't do.

Dan still needed the Uchiha to help him loot the Mountain Graveyard, to empty out everything from Obito's house.

So, it was time to step in.

Dan stood up, his gaze sharp, and with a leap, he was in mid-air.

At this moment.

Guruguru was standing on top of the wooden giant's head, shouting at the Uchiha below:

"No matter who you guys are, coming into my home and causing destruction is absolutely unforgivable. I'm going to wipe you all out, not leaving a single one."

He dropped his goofy demeanor, showing a rare coldness.

As soon as he finished speaking.

Guruguru suddenly noticed that the Uchiha on the ground were all looking at him... and behind him.

Huh?

He quickly turned his head to look up at the sky.

There was a full moon hanging in the sky, casting endless light, and in the middle of the moon, a black dot was getting bigger and closer.

Descending from the sky.

Guruguru finally saw it clearly.

It was a muscular, towering man, raising a leg as large as an elephant, coming down straight from the sky like an axe, aiming for the top of his head.

Painful Sky Kick!

"Wow!"

Guruguru immediately let out a strange cry and dodged to the side.

The next second.

Boom!

Dan's foot landed on the top of the wooden giant, a powerful surge of energy exploded from his body. The terrifying force traveled down his foot, causing the wooden giant's head...

To explode on the spot.

Turning into a shower of wooden splinters.
