Ch-214 Naruto's arrival.

"He is just too strong... Save me, he's approaching... Aaahh!"

"His defenses are just too strong. We have attacked him so many times, but all of those attacks were completely useless."

"Can we even win against him?"

Desperate cries for help and shouts of despair clearly resounded throughout the chaotic battlefield. The reason for all of this turmoil was none other than the Third Raikage. Under Kabuto's control, the Third Raikage was in a league of his own, and his defenses were simply impenetrable, rendering all attacks futile.

Observing the worsening situation, Temari decisively ordered, "All of you, do not leave your formation! Whoever can use Wind Release, gather around me immediately. To defeat the Third Raikage, who excels in Lightning Release, we have only one option: we must counter his attacks with a very powerful Wind Release jutsu."

After receiving Temari's order, the ninjas who were adept in wind release techniques began to converge around her. "Okay, now that all of you have gathered here, I have only one thing to say: do not hold anything back. Utilize your most potent wind release jutsu from your arsenal. Do not reserve anything," instructed Temari. Listening attentively to Temari's directives, all the ninjas present nodded in agreement and comprehension.

Shortly thereafter, the preparations were completed. "All of you who are in our line of attack, immediately step aside," commanded Temari. Without the slightest hesitation, the ninjas promptly complied and shifted aside. As they did so, a flurry of wind release jutsu was unleashed by Temari and her fellow wind release users.

Each wind release jutsu found its mark accurately, striking the Third Raikage with precision. The impact of the attacks obscured the figure of the Third Raikage, enveloping him in a dense cloud of dust.

Temari, who was growing increasingly impatient to see the results of her attack, swiftly swung her fan, effortlessly dispersing the dust cloud shrouding Raikage. As the dust settled, Raikage's figure emerged clearly into view.

Anticipation had gripped everyone present, as they braced themselves to witness the aftermath of the assault on the Third Raikage. However, their expectations were swiftly overturned when they beheld a sight contrary to their predictions. The Third Raikage appeared unscathed, bearing only superficial skin injuries and numerous cuts. While these wounds might have proven bothersome had he been alive and in his original form, in his current state as an 'Edo Tensei' entity, they held little significance.

"Even in the face of such formidable Wind Release attacks, he sustained only minor injuries," remarked one of the ninjas standing beside Temari, their tone tinged with resignation as they acknowledged the futility of their efforts against the Third Raikage.

"Did you know that in the past, he was called the 'Strongest Spear' and the 'Strongest Shield'?" came a voice as soon as the ninja finished speaking. This voice belonged to none other than Onoki, the seasoned Tsuchikage, who had just arrived after leaving Gaara's side.

"Tsuchikage, how do you suggest we defeat the Raikage?" asked Temari, her voice carrying a hint of urgency.

"If I were at my peak, I would have been able to hold off the Raikage myself, but now, to stand a chance against him, we need a very powerful wind release user. Someone who can wield even more powerful wind release techniques than you just did," explained Onoki, his tone grave with the weight of experience.

"But where will we find such a person? I don't know anyone who's better than me in terms of wind release," said Temari, her confidence momentarily shaken despite being recognized as one of the strongest wind release users in the world and currently the most powerful wind release user on the battlefield.

As if in response to Temari and Onoki's urgent plea for assistance, Naruto's shadow clone, infused with the power of Kurama's chakra in his KCM 1 form, materialized on the battlefield.

"Naruto!?" Onoki exclaimed in surprise, his eyes widening at the unexpected appearance.

"Naruto, what are you doing here?" Temari asked, her voice tinged with a mix of concern and confusion.

"I also want to ask, Naruto, wasn't it decided that you are not allowed to be on the battlefield? So why are you here?" Onoki inquired, his tone reflecting a blend of skepticism and curiosity.

"Don't worry, Gramps. I already have permission to be on the battlefield. If you doubt me, you can confirm it with Uncle Shikaku," Naruto reassured, his voice firm and resolute.

Naruto then directed his gaze towards the Third Raikage, who was wreaking havoc with his relentless assault. Taking in the gravity of the situation, Naruto added, "And it seems that you all are not in a good situation, so I came here to help," his determination evident in his words.

After hearing Naruto's confident tone, Temari nodded in agreement and remarked, "But none of the attacks seem to work on him, no matter how formidable they are. His defense is just ridiculous. We need a wind release jutsu of immense power to take down the Third Raikage."

"Oh, and coincidentally, I happen to be a very powerful wind release user," replied Naruto with a determined grin. With these words, he summoned a Rasengan into his hand and swiftly moved into action, launching an attack on the Third Raikage. Naruto did this with the intention of unleashing his most potent technique, the Rasenshuriken, against the formidable foe.

Meanwhile, as Naruto engaged in combat with the Third Raikage, Onoki quickly reached out to Inoichi, seeking confirmation about Naruto's authorization to join the war.
