Ice Release...

Under a tall statue, a man wearing a black and white swirling mask stood on the ground.

Three magatama-like holes on his mask.

 The Sharingan in his right eye rotating slowly.

"Huh?" He turned to look to his side and saw a White Zetsu emerging from the ground turning to him.

"The White Zetsu army on the first division battlefield has suffered heavy losses... This Chakra seems to be Ice Release."

"Ice Release?" The masked man thought about who the the Ice Release Ninja could be.

After a while of thinking, he found that he couldn't think of one ninja on the other side.

White Zetsu smiled and said: "Ah, I forgot to tell you, the White Zetsu army was killed by the Edo Tensei Ice Ninja..."

The masked man's eyes widened, the Sharingan stared at White Zetsu as he spoke slowly.

"You mean...someone among the Edo Tensei Summons broke away from his control?"

He couldn't believe it, remembering what Kabuto had said to him before.

Laughing, Kabuto continued, "Haha, the truth is, I've sacrificed a lot for this technique. Every individual resurrected by the Edo Tensei Jutsu requires a fragment of their blood in order for them to be summoned. Take Konoha's Eternal Ice, for example. Without Orochimaru-sama's study of his Kekkei Genkai and my possession of part of his blood, summoning him would have been impossible."

"This process is incredibly arduous and demands precision... For instance, the souls of the past Hokages are not in the Pure Lands but in the grasp of the Shinigami. In his plan to destroy Konoha, Orochimaru-sama once tried to summon the Fourth Hokage but failed."

"The Fourth Hokage used the Reaper Death Seal during the Nine Tails' attack on Konoha, sealing half of the Nine Tails within himself, thus giving his soul to the Shinigami."

"As for the First and Second Hokages, during the Konoha Crush, the Third Hokage sealed them with the Reaper Death Seal. The souls of these three are all in the Shinigami's stomach, making their summoning impossible."

"There are still others who cannot be summoned... Jiraiya's body lies deep in the ocean, Uchiha Shisui's body is lost, as well as Danzo's and Pain's..."

The masked man's voice turned icy, "Don't get carried away."

Kabuto chuckled, "Haha, alright. Regardless, we have enough pieces on the board..."

Kabuto, hiding his face under his cloak, smiled sinisterly. "If you want to know what the only risk of the Edo Tensei Jutsu is... let's just say that the Second Hokage, the founder of this technique, is too famous. Just like him this will make me, as the user, renowned around the world. Just like Madara Uchiha. But for someone like me..."

The masked man cut in sharply, "Don't get ahead of yourself."

.....

The masked man looked up at the giant statue and said to himself: "It seems that the Edo Tensei Jutsu still has risks."

White Zetsu smiled and said: "That idiot Kabuto, in terms of the level of preparation in his work, he still can't compare to Orochimaru."

The masked man did not speak, but secretly said in his heart: 'It doesn't matter anymore. Kabuto thought he could use me... However, he has already been used by me. The Gold and Silver Brother from the Edo Tensei Jutsu has the Nine Tails Chakra I need, and they're on the first division battlefield.'

Moreover, according to the news from White Zetsu, the Gold and Silver Brothers have been sealed.

'Oh, that Konoha Shinobi whose title was Eternal Ice... I think I've heard of him before? It seems that he is also on the first division battlefield, right?'

'Let's get the Nine Tails' Chakra first.'

Thinking about it, he took a step forward.

White Zetsu asked, "Where are you going?"

"Just checking it out."

After saying that, Sharingan absorbed himself, and for a moment, he was in a different dimension.

...

"Ice Age!"

Tosaka slowly exhaled a breath of cold air, and a cold current surged up. The Allied Shinobi Force was surprised by the scene!

The ocean! It was instantly tuned into ice at a speed invisible to the naked eye, and... a large number of the White Zetsu troops that were in the ocean were completely frozen all at the same time.

Darui, who had just sealed the two legendary ninjas, the Gold and Silver Brothers, felt a cold breeze coming to him. Having experienced many battles, he felt the dangerous breeze getting closer and closer, so he quickly jumped back and returned to the shore.

Turning around and looking at the ocean, he was suddenly stunned.

The ocean's surface...has turned into ice!

"Is this... still something humans can do? He actually froze the ocean's surface in an instant!"

"I can't believe it...are we really going to fight against this kind of enemy?!"

"He's still immortal as well!"

"Don't be afraid!" Choza Akimichi is also a ninja who has experienced many battles. At this time, the morale of the army was shaken, so he had to speak out to calm the hearts of these young ninjas.

"Our opponent may be a powerful ninja, but that doesn't mean we should give up! We must fight with everything we've got, because in this battle, we can only emerge victorious!"

Choza stretched out his arm, made a fist and waved it to the sky, shouting: "Victory!"

The atmosphere of the battlefield changed accordingly.

Everyone strengthened their confidence and faced the enemy head-on bravely.

"Victory!"

Their unified roars echoed, resonating as a single, powerful voice.

However, Tosaka looking across from him, he felt a bit speechless.

'What are you doing, acting like you can defeat me with sheer willpower?'

'Still, it's good to see that I'm starting to be to resist the Jutsu's orders. Otherwise, my previous attack move would've frozen everybody.'

'That scaled man summoned too many ninjas using the Edo Tensei Just all at once, and his control is weakening... Hehe, a student of Orochimaru who can't even manage this? What kind of villain even is he?'

Tosaka's mouth curved into a smile.

But this gives him a chance to break free from the seal's control.

Tosaka looked up and saw the Allied Shinobi Force erupting with powerful roars. Everyone's face was flushed with determination, as if they wanted to rush up and tear him to pieces.

Tosaka was speechless for a moment.

Looking back, he saw Asuma surrounded by three opponents. The opponents he was facing were unmistakable; the Ino-Shika-Chō trio.

Kakuzu was still trying to steal hearts.

The Gold and Silver Brothers had long been sealed.

White Zetsu had also been defeated, frozen by Tosaka.

With the enemy now having the upper hand and ready to 'take care of' him, it gave him a headache just thinking about it.

In desperation, he muttered to himself, "It seems I have no choice but to find a way to break the seal."

He quickly formed a hand seal and slammed his hands hard on the ice!

The Allied Shinobi Force jumped back in fright of his actions!

"Everyone, be careful! He's going to attack!"

Tosaka's hands touched the ice as he said,

"Ice Release..."
