Chapter 10, The First Battle

It seems that in the past few years, Hinata has truly been left in a state of disarray by the Uchiha clan said Masahiko

Many clan members have already gathered here, and many more are on their way.

The matter is now entrusted to the two elders" the clan leader said as he looked at the two elders

The patriarch glanced around and said, "Everyone seems to be here, I won't say much more, I hope everyone travels safely."

"This battle can be fought." Zheng Yan thought to himself. He had originally believed that after their reinforcements arrived, they would gain an absolute advantage, but he did not expect Elder Qianshou Dongfang to be injured to this extent, which has now become a significant problem.

After setting up camp and having a meal, under the leadership of the pillar, the Second Elder and the Third Elder went to meet the Eastern Battlefield Elder of the Senju Clan. Masayoshi followed along with a grin, and although the two elders shot him a glare, they did not stop him

Today’s battle can be considered over. Zheng Yan sighed and looked up at the sun that had risen to mid-air

It should be so, otherwise they would not give up such a good opportunity The clan leader felt helpless in his heart It seems that our idea of wanting to reduce losses this time is not feasible

"Good!" Elder Dongfang shouted, pushing away the clan members who were supporting him. "Next, between the pillars and doors, block Kaguya from the Taketori! As for Elder Kaguya II, I will risk my life to intercept him here. As for the others, kill them all!"

Countless bones emerged from the ground, piercing towards the four members of the Vortex Clan. With no other choice, the four had to dismantle the formation and evade individually

War

Thank you to the Uzumaki clan for your assistance; it has been a long and arduous journey. Let us first set up camp nearby to rest, and after we have eaten, we can have a detailed discussion with our elders.

The second elder and the clan leader simultaneously shot him a glare, causing Zheng Yan's face to flush with embarrassment

Early the next morning, after having breakfast, Zheng Yan prepared his belongings and hurried to the front of the clan leader's hall

It turns out that the leader of the Kaguya clan has personally arrived, which is why the attack was launched so swiftly

Ninjutsu - Four Purple Flames Formation! The inner and outer layers of the barrier isolate Kaguya, Raikage, and the others from the battlefield

"I hope I haven't made a fool of myself in front of you all. My old bones are becoming increasingly unreliable," Elder Dongfang said, his voice slightly weak.

"It’s alright, with Uncle Er here, I will protect our clan members," Zheng Yan comforted.

Stepping out of the patriarch's hall, Zheng Yan murmured to himself: "I am no longer the person I used to be... This war is sure to astonish everyone."

However, the door on the side seemed to be deep in thought. After teaming up with Zhengyan to battle Uchiha Madara and developing the Flying Thunder God technique, he could not believe that this second grandfather was the rumored waste.

I do not know how much my vortex clan has lost again

Therefore, when they arrived near the Senju camp, Hashirama and Tobirama took the initiative to welcome them.

Masahiko slowly nodded, "Leave the vortex to me."

After a full day of travel, we finally arrived at the camp of the Thousand Hands Clan on the battlefield by evening

Depart! After exchanging a few words with the Second Elder and the Clan Leader, he immediately turned around and, looking at the assembled ninja troops, issued the command

As Kaguya broke through the formation, she charged towards the battlefield like a madwoman, but then Kaguya Taketori shouted, "Chief, the losses among our clan members are too severe. Let us retreat for now and regroup!"

It turns out that this morning, the Senju clan had a tentative battle with the Kaguya clan. The result was nearly a rout. The Grand Elder and the Second Elder of the Kaguya clan arrived on the battlefield. Hashirama and Tobirama intercepted the Second Elder of the Kaguya clan, while the Eastern Elder was defeated head-on by the Grand Elder of the Kaguya clan within 10 minutes

In the team, Zheng Yan carefully observed the ninjas and discovered that there were as many as over ten elite Jonin, including two peak Jonin, along with several hundred elite Chunin and Genin.

After the orderly response, the ninja squad set off towards the eastern plain battlefield, and Masahiro also departed with the team

After a day of travel, the members of the Vortex Tribe were also quite fatigued, and everyone fell into a deep slumber early.

Wood Release - Birth of the Tree Realm! The space between the pillars did not respond, but directly took action. Wood Release is indeed a battlefield weapon; although its main purpose is to restrict Kaguya's lightning, many of Kaguya's lower and middle ninjas were still injured by this technique

"Alright... let's retreat!" Kaguya shouted unwillingly.

"Damn it, Kaguya! How dare you come to the battlefield? Are you not afraid of leaving our clan vulnerable?" shouted the elder from the East

At this moment, the two elders of the Uzumaki clan and the two peak Jonin who had come with them simultaneously used the Body Flicker Technique and arrived around Uzumaki.

The two elders of the Uzumaki clan exchanged glances, their expressions grim: "Damn that Kaguya lunatic, their clan's territory is now so vulnerable that even an average family could wipe them out!"

On the morning of the second day, Zheng Yan was still in a half-dream, half-awake state when he heard someone outside shouting, "All personnel on alert, Kaguya is attacking!"

Upon exiting the tent, I saw that the two elders had already gathered the clansmen there, and the elder from the East also emerged with the support of the clansmen

"My skills are inferior to others, that damned Kaguya Tsukuyomi! If it weren't for Hashirama's last-minute breakthrough today, I probably wouldn't have made it back." The Eastern Elder said this, but a slight smile appeared on his face, clearly pleased with Hashirama's talent

Zheng Yan turned over and sat up straight. He knew that Hui Ye must be aware that the Senju clan had sent reinforcements. The fact that they dared to launch an attack under such circumstances indicated that they had some confidence that he was unaware of.

Before long, Kaguya's troops arrived at the front of the camp, but it was not Kaguya herself who stood at the very front of the line

Once the Kaguya clan completely withdrew, the Senju and Uzumaki clans present all breathed a sigh of relief, as the pressure exerted by the Kaguya clan leader had been quite significant

They refused? ... ... I see. The patriarch sighed lightly, realizing that it was indeed not so smooth.

At this moment, the two elders of the Vortex Clan concluded their conversation with Elder Dongfang and walked out, with Zhengyan following them out.

Now that the two have arrived, I can rest assured. During this time, I have been worried about Kaguya launching a surprise attack... This remark, however, disregarded Masayuki, who also did not pay it any mind

"Rest assured, Chief," the two elders said in unison

Damn it! A mere formation can trap me? The Dance of the Grass and Withered! Yet, it was Kaguya who, upon witnessing the heavy losses of her clan, resorted to the forbidden technique of the Corpse Bone Pulse, which is not to be used lightly due to its control over bloodline diseases

The Eastern Elder looked bewildered, but upon seeing Zheng Yan engaged in battle with Elder Kaguya, he noted that although the situation was fraught with danger, Elder Kaguya was momentarily unable to gain the upper hand against Zheng Yan, who utilized his background in substitution techniques and exceptional shuriken throwing skills, along with occasional rapid-fire Rasengan distractions.

Due to the numerical advantage, the opposing side suffered heavy losses in a short period of time

The Elder of the East had a grim expression; indeed, on this battlefield, no one could stop Kaguya from unleashing her lightning. Even if he were uninjured, he would likely only be able to hold on for five minutes.

To their surprise, they found the Eastern elder lying on the bed

"Hashirama, please slightly restrain the actions of the Kaguya clan leader, and then hand him over to us!" The Second Elder said as he turned to Hashirama.

"Hmph, I can eliminate you all here and still have time to return!" Kaguya said, opening her mouth.

This is almost half of my clan's strength; it seems that the clan has made up its mind to teach Kaguya a lesson

Along the way, we encountered quite a few scouts from the Senju and Kaguya clans, yet we paid them no mind. Given the sheer number of ninjas crossing, it was impossible to conceal their presence, so we simply let both sides know.

"Wait a moment, Elder!" The door opened, and it turned to face Zheng Yan, "Second Grandfather, can you stop Elder Kaguya from coming?"

On that evening, the Second Elder also returned from the Hyuga clan

Approximately half an hour later, the second and third elders of the family arrived here following the clan leader.

Although he did not know what was happening, the Elder of the East immediately reacted and commanded the other ninjas of the two clans to attack the opposite side
