The black-blue flas instantly drew countless gazes.
The entire battlefield seed to stall as everyone, almost unconsciously, looked in that direction.
"That place… that's the barrier," a Cloud ninja recognized the area engulfed in flas.
It was the very barrier that had swallowed more than a hundred Cloud ninja.
The black-blue fire slowly faded.
Hyuga Arin, now back in the traditional attire of the Hyuga clan, rapidly swept his gaze across his surroundings.
At his feet, a ring of black-blue flas burned quietly, enclosing him together with Abura Mushihi and Nawaki.
Mainly because the dragon armor was simply too eye-catching—though, admittedly, he was still pretty conspicuous even now.
"Those three brats are still alive?"
"Where did the others go?"
"That blue-black fla… a bloodline limit?"
Not just the Cloud ninja—even Konoha's side was completely baffled.
Flas they had never seen before, and a Hyuga clansman using them. Seeing the horn-like flas on Arin's forehead, it wasn't hard to guess whose technique this was.
Hyuga Arin… had this kind of ability too?
As for the blue fireballs, not many people actually knew they were Arin's doing. Most Konoha ninja still had no idea who the "mysterious fireball" user really was.
Many mbers of the Hyuga clan looked at Arin with complicated expressions.
The branch family mbers seed to already see Arin's future.
A bloodline limit like this—
The Hyuga main family would absolutely not let it go. They would exhaust every ans to obtain it.
Anything belonging to the branch family ultimately belonged to the main house.
Previously, the main house's attitude toward Arin had rely been to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys—
To ensure that no one dared defy the main family's authority.
Their level of concern had actually been limited.
But the mont a new bloodline limit appeared, the importance placed on Arin would skyrocket to the highest level.
What they didn't know was that Arin's Caged Bird Seal had already been removed.
"So he actually developed a bloodline limit…"
Hyuga Hiashi clenched his teeth, staring at Arin with resentnt from another corner of the battlefield.
He didn't believe that branch family mbers were unqualified to develop bloodline limits—that kind of thinking belonged only to the old fossils of the main house.
What he felt was pure unwillingness.
As the heir of the main family, he had been completely surpassed by a branch family mber.
He hated his own inadequacy more and more.
Was he really fit to lead the Hyuga clan?
Could he truly inherit his father's will?
Arin noticed the conflicted expression on Hiashi's face.
But his attention was firmly fixed on the battlefield itself.
"A full-scale lee, huh?"
He looked toward the distant fighting that showed no sign of stopping.
The future Three Ninja were actually holding their own against a jinchūriki.
"A total offensive, then."
No wonder Tsunade's team had been sent here in secret—it was all for this decisive all-out attack.
"Konoha brat!!"
A Cloud ninja roared as he charged straight at Arin.
He had to know what had happened inside that blue barrier.
Why had only these three brats erged?
"Where did the others go?!"
He gripped his blade with both hands, lightning crackling over his body as he rapidly closed the distance.
Clang!
With a casual swing of one hand, Arin blocked the strike using the Dark Battle Blade.
He looked up at the Cloud ninja and bared his teeth in a grin.
"They? They've already gone to the Pure Land. I'll send you there too."
Fire Release · Fire Dragon Tornado!
Black-blue flas surged violently from the Dark Battle Blade, forming a whirling fire tornado that engulfed the Cloud ninja.
The Cloud ninja's expression changed drastically.
He could feel the power behind Arin's blade—
Despite being just a kid, Arin's strength faintly overwheld his own.
If he withdrew his blade to flee, Arin's strike would be enough to kill him.
If he didn't withdraw, the fire tornado would burn him to ashes.
That single mont of hesitation sealed his fate.
Flas wrapped around his body, and in the blink of an eye, he was reduced to ash.
"Nawaki, Mushihi—find a way to escape. I won't be able to protect you anymore," Arin said with a wide grin.
This chaotic battlefield was exactly his kind of paradise.
But this wasn't a ga dungeon—
His chakra was plumting. He no longer had the absurd reserves he'd enjoyed inside the instance.
He truly couldn't spare attention for them.
"Don't worry, big bro," Nawaki replied, rapidly forming hand seals.
Abura Mushihi imdiately placed her hand on his shoulder.
"Arin-nii, you have to co back… I'll wait for you, forever… I'll wait no matter what…"
Mushihi shouted through teary eyes.
Arin stumbled.
No—
Wasn't that phrasing a little too strange?!
"Earth Release · Hiding Like a Mole Technique!"
By then, Nawaki's jutsu was complete. The two of them sank straight into the ground.
Arin was left speechless, resisting the urge to complain as he turned toward the battlefield that had once again erupted into chaos.
"Let's start farming."
He swung the black blade in his hand.
Black-blue flas coiled around it as Arin charged straight into the ranks of the Cloud ninja.
At the heart of the battlefield—
Tsunade's team was locked in a brutal struggle against B.
This was the true battlefield, the place where victory or defeat would decide the direction of the entire war.
Yet, despite their efforts, the three of them were still at a disadvantage, constantly suppressed by B alone.
"Lariat!!"
B drove an elbow upward, smashing Jiraiya's toad and sending it flying.
"Heaven Kick of Pain!!"
Leaping off Katsuyu's body, Tsunade descended toward B, her kick aid straight at him.
B lifted his leg at the sa ti, eting her attack head-on.
"Lightning Release · Guillotine Drop!!"
Boom!
The collision of their legs unleashed a massive shockwave that rolled outward.
Tsunade was knocked downward, while B rode the recoil upward into the air.
At the sa ti, Orochimaru hurled a massive Fūma shuriken from afar.
"Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique!!"
The single Fūma shuriken multiplied into countless copies, hurtling toward B.
B snapped his head around, and a black sphere rapidly condensed in front of him.
Tailed Beast Ball!!
The Tailed Beast Ball slamd into the storm of shuriken, tearing open a gap.
B's body dropped straight through the opening.
The remaining Tailed Beast Ball continued flying toward Orochimaru.
Orochimaru's pupils shrank—
At that instant, silver hair suddenly wrapped around his waist and yanked him violently off Manda's head.
Manda, seeing the descending Tailed Beast Ball, imdiately canceled the summoning.
BOOOOM!!!
The explosion tore through the surroundings.
The toad that had been blown away earlier reappeared on the battlefield, while Jiraiya's hair dragged Orochimaru back to safety.
Wild Lion's Mane Technique.
B landed on the ground but didn't attack imdiately.
Instead, he dropped to one knee, clutching his head, as if enduring imnse pain.
"Now!!" Orochimaru roared.
His hands flew through seals as he took a deep breath, his abdon rapidly swelling.
Jiraiya understood instantly, forming seals as he inhaled deeply as well.
"Wind Release · Vacuum Blast!!"
"Fire Release · Great Fla Bullet!!"
Wind and fire intertwined, forming a combined ninjutsu.
Wind–Fire Refining Bullet!!!
A violent torrent of wind and fla surged straight toward B.
At that mont, B snarled angrily:
"Shut up already, Eight-Tails!!"
He stomped off the ground and charged straight into the incoming wind-fire blast.
Liger Bomb!!
BOOOOOOM!!!!
