Reborn in Naruto As Madara's Grandson

Chapter 48: 48. White Fang Vs Third Raikage Part-2

In the Kumo Battlefront,

The Third Raikage stretches out his right hand as he aims it in Sakumo's direction. The lightning Chakra in his hand concentrates at his fingertip as it takes the shape of a sharp spear.

'Lightning Release: Body Flicker'

The Raikage disappears from his spot as he charges towards Sakumo. Sakumo has a pensive expression as he immediately makes many hand signs and slams his hand on the ground,

'Earth Style: Multiple Mud Walls'

'Earth Style: Abyssal Swamp'

Sakumo turns the ground beneath him in a swamp to kill the momentum of Third Raikage. The Third Raikage dashes through the swamp as his speed is reduced a bit, but he still has his momentum.

'Hell Stab: Four Finger Nukite'

He continues to run across the swamp as his fingers stab and break one wall after the other. His momentum is finally prevented after breaking all the walls.

The Third Raikage accelerates again as he curls his little finger and stabs towards Sakumo.

'Hell Stab: Three Finger Nukite'

The Lightning Chakra is now concentered on three of his fingers and the sharpness and piercing power of the stab is raised by a notch. A swings his hand as he creates a powerful shock-wave which sends the nearby Shinobi flying.

Sakumo immediately starts to make hand signs as he slams his hand on the ground.

'Summoning Jutsu'

A summoning seal appears on the ground and with a puff of smoke, a giant bulldog with a large bone in its mouth appears on the battlefield.

"You always summons me in a pinch Sakumo." the dog growls.

"Quick, form a shield with the bone, we don't have enough time to chit-chat." Sakumo reminds the bulldog.

The bulldog snorts at Sakumo as he throws the bone from his mouth on the ground.

Thud...

The bone lands on the ground as it expands to form a wall.

Boom...

The third Raikage stabs his fingers in the bone as the bone starts to tremble, but it held on. The recoil from the bone pushes the Raikage back as he summersaults to shrug it off.

The third Raikage starts to concentrate Chakra in his fingers as he curls three of his fingers as he points his Index finger towards Sakumo and bends his body back to rile up his Chakra clock. He prepares to charge again.

"We need to stop him Butch or it won't fare well for us."

The bulldog opens its large mouth as he starts to inhale a large amount of air. Sakumo also starts to make hand signs,

'Fire Release: Dragon Flame Jutsu'

'Wind Release: Vacuum Blast Barrage'

'Co-operation Jutsu: Fire Dragon God Flame'

The intensity of the heat rose on the battlefield as heat rises to an unbelievable level. Nearby ninjas start to sweat profusely from the heat as their sweat evaporated instantly.

The third Raikage charges at Sakumo as he ignored the intense heat from the jutsu.

'Lightning Release: Lightning Straight'

The skin of the Third Raikage turns brown from the heat as his hairs start to burn. Despite the intense heat, Raikage continues to close the gap between them.

'Hell Stab: One Finger Nukite'

The concentration of Chakra on his finger is so great that it extends well beyond the finger in a lone point.

Crack...

His finger finally stabs in the bone as cracks start to appear on the bone. The bone is barely able to hold against the stab, but a spider-like crack appears on its frame.

"What a monster! The thigh bone of the sage ancestor."

The giant bulldog cries in surprise at the crack. The third Raikage is jerked back by the recoil as he pants heavily while lying on the ground. Sakumo is also thrown back by the momentum of the attack.

Except for a few burns here and there, no scratch or wound is present on his body. Sakumo also starts to pant as he too has exhausted all of his Chakra in the previous exchange.

The third Raikage starts to stand up as he cloaks his body in Lightning Chakra Cloak. The Third Raikage has recovered from the last attack and he still has enough chakra to spare.

'Lightning Release Chakra Mode'

He flickers in front of Sakumo as he attacks him,

'Lightning Release: Lariat'

"You were a worthy opponent White Fang. You pushed me to my limits. But for the future of my village, I have to cull you here."

'Big Ball Rasengan'

Boom...

--------------------------

At the Iwa battlefront,

Boom...

A large boulder smash in the ground. Rocks and dust are flung away as Konoha's shinobi takes cover in a ditch.

Minato looks at the situation as he infuses Chakra into the Chakra scroll. Various tri-fork Kunais appears on the ground.

"Everyone, please pick a Kunai from the ground," Minato orders them.

"Just a little more now and we can end this."

One of the jounins cheers his teammates.

"Let's do this in one sweep." Another jounin shout.

"Everyone, please throw these kunais at the enemy's side concurrently. Afterward, I will take care of the rest by myself."

Minato reminds the remaining ninjas as he turns to face the army of Iwa ninjas. One of the jounin gulps as he asks in trepidation,

"Will it work? If it won't work, then we are a goner."

The jounin commander of the team interrupts him as he speaks,

"We will be able to see Konoha's Yellow Flash in action now. Don't blink, even for a second."

"Yes, sir." All of them shouts in unison.

Minato crosses his index fingers together as he shouts at his team,

"Throw, the kunai's now."

All the Konoha's shinobis throw the kunais towards the Iwa ninjas as Minato murmurs,

"Spiralling Flash Super Round Dance Howl Style Three"

Various shadow clone of Minato appears and disappears instantly as a yellow lightning flash is produced from the jutsu.

Clang...Clang...Clang...

Various metals sound echoed in the surroundings as various bolts of yellow lightning flashes one after another.

One of the Konoha ninjas gulps his saliva as he complains,

"I can't see a thing except for the yellow flashes of lightning. What's going on?"

The Jounin Commander nods his head as he explains,

"Me neither. This is the reason why Minato is called the Yellow Flash. While using the Flying Thunder God Jutsu created by the Second Hokage-sama, Minato's speed is so fast that he only appears as a yellow flash in enemies' eyes."

"So, this is the power of Yellow flash. Fearsome, truly fearsome." Another jounin praises Minato.

"Looks like the real action has just started now." The jounin commander looks at the battlefield as he exclaims.

Multiple Rasengan appears on the battlefield as Shadow clones start to bombards the enemy ninjas.

Boom...Boom...Boom...

Dust and debris rise in the air as one explosion after another explosion after another occurs on the field.

After five minutes of continuous bombarding, silence returns to the surroundings. Minato walks out of the dust while breathing heavily. He is drenched in sweat as he takes support against a boulder.

"Huff...huff...this technique is too much Chakra Taxing. I have to think of ways to improve the Chakra usage in this technique."

"I have dealt with the situation here. Go and support the second division, they seem to be in a pinch. It will take me some time to recover my Chakra. I will join you guys shortly." Minato orders them as he slowly recovers his Chakra.

Minato rests against the boulder as he starts to contemplate on the battle.

In the past two days, the tides of battle have turned in Konoha's favor. His team has successfully destroyed the Kannabi bridge, thus foiling the invasion plan of Iwagakure.

Fugaku-san with his clan members has successfully annihilated one of the divisions of the enemy all by themselves. The Uchiha clan is feared in the entire Shinobi world for its high combat prowess. And today, he successfully repelled the attack of a thousand Shinobis.

Now, they have to await the situation to turn around on the Kumo battlefront.

----------------------

In the Land of Stone, beside a rocky mountain range,

In one of the tallest structure with a cone-shaped roof and a giant symbol in kanji for 'earth',

A short, old man with a triangular beard and mustache with angular corners sat on Tsuchikage's seat. The man had a big red nose and thick eyebrows with a bald head. He wore a green and yellow coat with a red collar.

The Tsuchikage slams his hand on the armrest of the seat after reading the latest intel from the field. He yells loudly as he curses,

"Damn! Konoha. Looks like I have to personally participate in the war. My Iwa has suffered major losses in this war. This won't do, I have to get back at Konoha for this. Prepare for my departure, I will annihilate those Konoha bastards."

"Tsuchikage-sama, the elder council demands a meeting with you. They want an answer from you regarding the loss of manpower on the battlefield." One of his assistants hurriedly reports to him.

The Tsuchikage starts to float in the air as he flies in the direction of the battlefield.

"Tell to those senile geezers, I will personally handle the situation."

A/N:- Expect a few things to change here and there. Also, it would be appreciated if someone can tell about the identity of 10,000 ninjas who killed the Third Raikage (with reliable source). There are conflicting opinion on this matter even on reddit. Some people claims it to be Iwa whereas some Konoha.
