Naruto: People are in Konoha, the system arrived 20 years earlier Chapter 166

But soon, Onoki noticed something was off below.

“Hmm? Where’s that yellow-haired kid who uses Flying Raijin?”

It seemed like he had suddenly disappeared.

Suddenly, a bad premonition arose in his heart.

Not long after, Minato’s figure reappeared below, and not only that, but standing beside him was someone who disgusted Onoki to no end.

Hiruzen, clad in battle armor, stretched his wrists, probably having been engrossed in writing earlier.

“What’s the situation now?” Hiruzen said calmly, surveying the scene.

Jiraiya came to Hiruzen’s side and explained.

“Both of Iwagakure’s jinchuriki have been deployed, and they’re in perfect Tailed Beast Mode. Onoki is holding us back in the sky.”

In the sky? Hiruzen looked up and met Onoki’s gaze, who was suspended in the air.

“Still the same, always aiming for the high ground, huh?”

Onoki felt annoyed by Hiruzen’s appearance.

Flying Raijin, a lifelong enemy!

The situation had originally been tilting in Iwagakure’s favor, but with Hiruzen joining the fray, the battlefield would be reshuffled.

On the ground, Hiruzen glanced at the Four-Tails, who was suppressing the Konoha ninja, and spoke softly.

“Jiraiya, Minato, I’ll leave the Four-Tails to you two, no problem, right?”

Jiraiya and Minato both nodded slightly.

“No problem, but what about Onoki…?”

Jiraiya said, looking up at the sky with a solemn expression. If the opponent kept harassing them from above, it would be difficult for them to operate.

Hiruzen chuckled softly, then pulled out a scroll from his person.

“Don’t worry about Onoki, he’s my responsibility.”

He just so happened to have the standard answer from Hayato for this problem.

A smoke screen dissipated, and a fighter jet appeared on the scene, catching Jiraiya and Minato’s attention.

“What is this?” Minato tilted his head, a little confused. He had never seen this thing before.

Hiruzen crossed his arms and created a shadow clone.

“A weapon specially prepared for aerial combat,” Hiruzen said with a smile.

Immediately, his shadow clone entered the fighter jet and started the machine.

This was something he had been inspired by Hayato to do. Back then, he had created a shadow clone to go to the Science Division and request a fighter jet and its instruction manual.

He had thought that if he ever faced Onoki, he would have a way to deal with him.

Soon, Hiruzen jumped onto the top of the fighter jet. As the jet ascended, Hiruzen gradually approached Onoki.

Minato and Jiraiya were both stunned. Then Minato recalled the time he and Hayato had gone to the Sky Ninja Village to destroy it.

However, at that time, he had only noticed the opponent’s naval battleship technology, and the aerial flying machine was just a fleeting glance.

After all, the Sky Ninja at that time didn’t even have a chance to use their flying machines against them before their village was destroyed.

“So this is from back then, no, it seems to be an upgraded version,” Minato muttered.

After a while, Jiraiya patted Minato’s shoulder.

“Let’s go, we have our own things to do.” After patting Minato’s shoulder, Jiraiya rushed towards the Four-Tails.

Immediately, Minato also followed. There was no need to worry about things here.

Just leave it to the Hokage.

Seeing the two about to leave, Onoki intended to manipulate the rock golem to block them, but soon, he felt a chill coming.

Out of the corner of his eye, he glimpsed many large shuriken flying towards him.

He stopped manipulating the rock golem and saw Hiruzen’s figure through the gaps in the shuriken.

Konoha really could come up with all sorts of strange things, Onoki couldn’t help but sigh in his heart as he looked at the fighter jet beneath Hiruzen’s feet.

But it was only a brief surprise, and then a smile appeared on his face.

But in the end, it was still an external force, and there was still a gap compared to what he himself mastered.

Also, now that he was in the air, he didn’t have to worry about his Dust Release accidentally harming his teammates.

Then, he quickly formed hand signs, and then opened a conical barrier in his right hand.

“Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World!”

Then he immediately released the Dust Release barrier towards Hiruzen.

On the other side, Hiruzen showed no panic. He also formed hand signs, responding with Dust Release.

“Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World!”

The triangular barrier between Hiruzen’s hands flew towards Onoki’s Dust Release barrier.

Boom!

At this moment, Onoki’s face was filled with shock at the fact that Hiruzen could use Dust Release.

Although he knew that the other party had the Dust Release cultivation method left behind by the Second Tsuchikage, he had not expected that Hiruzen had mastered it merely through self-study over the past few years.

From this moment on, Onoki’s heart could no longer calm down, because he knew that there was no longer any final restraint between the two sides.

In the original situation, Konoha would definitely be wary of him using Dust Release recklessly, regardless of friend or foe.

But now, the two were equal, and there was no longer any need for concern. If you use it, I’ll use it too.

Onoki stopped his movements, waiting for Hiruzen to approach.

In a short while, Hiruzen ascended to Onoki’s vicinity. The two faced each other, with only one or two hundred meters between them.

“Hokage, shall we talk?” Onoki said.

Hiruzen had anticipated Onoki’s reaction and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

“Heh, you’ve already released the jinchuriki, what is there to talk about?”

Hearing Hiruzen say this, Onoki’s face darkened.

Good heavens, if I hadn’t released the jinchuriki onto the battlefield, our village would be in big trouble, it would be destroyed.

“So you mean to fight to the death? Are you sure?” Onoki’s attitude didn’t soften, because he knew that if he showed weakness now, he would be infinitely manipulated.

After a while, seeing that Hiruzen didn’t respond, Onoki gritted his teeth and said, “Falling out is bad for everyone, you understand what I mean.”

The meaning was clear: if you go all-in with me now, then as long as I can escape, I’ll run to your Konoha Village and throw Dust Release barriers everywhere. What will you do then?

And he would specifically choose to do it at night.

Anyway, my home is gone, and I have no more ties, so I can do whatever I want.

Hiruzen, old and cunning, naturally understood Onoki’s unspoken meaning, which was also the point he was worried about.

Unless Onoki was killed in one blow, if he escaped, the consequences would indeed be unimaginable.

Now that this topic was brought into the open by the other party, Hiruzen had to reconsider the subsequent impact of this battle.

Seeing Hiruzen’s expression loosen, Onoki breathed a sigh of relief.

The two of them stood in a stalemate in the sky, suddenly losing the initial tension.

After a while, Hiruzen slowly spoke, “Since that’s the case, what do you want?”

“A temporary truce, how about it?” Onoki said softly.

Then he looked at the battle below. Jiraiya and Minato had already reached the vicinity of the Four-Tails. With the two of them joining, the battle situation immediately reversed again.

Onoki’s heart couldn’t help but become anxious.
