Naruto: Betrayed From The Start

---

"Forget it."

"If they've noticed, they've noticed."

Since the Third Raikage wasn't actively attacking, there was no need to pay attention to him. Kenshi immediately ran away from Sarutobi Tsukishi.

The Eight Inner Gates Formation, once activated, wouldn't last long. As long as he could stall for time, without the threat of the Eight Inner Gates Formation, Kenshi was confident he could survive this battle.

But the Eight Inner Gates Formation, which was said to be dozens of times stronger than the Five Kage, wasn't so easy to hold back.

The key was that the other side had someone who could see where his main body was. Shadow clones couldn't fool them at all. Sarutobi Tsukishi didn't miss his target and went straight for Kenshi's main body.

"No, I have to stop that guy."

Sensing Sarutobi Tsukishi chasing after him at high speed, Kenshi stopped. On Guimo's side, one of his shadow clones, full of chakra, was dispelled. Kenshi's chakra quickly replenished.

"Wood Release - Tree World Descent!"

Kenshi clapped his hands together. Except for the Lightning Release Chakra Armor, he used all his other chakra to transform into Wood Release chakra and activate Wood Release.

Creak, creak, creak, creak... In an instant, countless towering trees rose from the ground.

As Sarutobi Tsukishi was moving at high speed, countless trees surged towards him like a dense forest of giant pythons, blocking his path.

Thump, thump, thump... Sarutobi Tsukishi stepped on the air, like the Moonwalk in One Piece, directly walking in the air, dodging the trees' entanglement.

"Don't even think about coming over easily!"

Kenshi roared angrily in his heart, controlling the boundless trees to rise and block Sarutobi Tsukishi.

"Evening Elephant!"

Sarutobi Tsukishi threw out a punch. A white shock wave pierced through everything, instantly creating a clear hole in the boundless forest.

Sarutobi Tsukishi plunged into the hole and continued towards Kenshi.

Crack... Halfway there, Sarutobi Tsukishi suddenly stopped in pain. His right leg bone had numerous cracks.

"Opportunity!"

"Opportunity!"

Kenshi and the Third Raikage, who had been watching him, both lit up.

Kenshi thought for a moment and controlled the trees to entangle Sarutobi Tsukishi.

The Third Raikage's lightning wings fluttered. His veins bulged, and his three-pronged attack pierced forward, aiming for Kenshi's neck, trying to sever his head.

"No good, I can't dodge!"

The Third Raikage's all-out attack was incredibly fast, like a bolt of lightning. It pierced through all the trees and instantly arrived in front of Kenshi.

Kenshi had used all his chakra to activate Wood Release. Only the Lightning Release Chakra Armor was still on his body. Fortunately, his reaction ability was still there. At the critical moment, he forcefully twisted his body.

Sizzle!

The Third Raikage's three-pronged attack didn't pierce Kenshi's neck. It pierced into his right shoulder. In an instant, Kenshi's entire right arm broke, and his shoulder was mostly gone.

Before he could react.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle... The Third Raikage unleashed a terrifying Black Lightning attack on Kenshi.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle... Kenshi's reaction wasn't slow this time. Black Lightning flickered on his body, resisting the Third Raikage's Black Lightning.

Boom!

On Guimo's side, one of his shadow clones was dispelled. Kenshi, who had regained a large amount of chakra, didn't give the Third Raikage a chance to continue attacking. Countless black iron chains shot out from his body.

The Third Raikage instantly moved away, not wanting to clash head-on.

This attack would seriously injure Kenshi, if not kill him. If he didn't give him time to heal his injuries, he would definitely die.

Moreover, without one hand, Kenshi wouldn't be able to use many jutsu. His fighting power would definitely drop significantly.

The Third Raikage was very satisfied.

Boom!

On Guimo's side, another shadow clone was dispelled. The transmitted chakra was all transformed by Kenshi into Wood Release chakra to repair his body.

In an instant, Kenshi's wound expanded rapidly like a bubble. His cells rapidly divided and proliferated. One arm... didn't grow back as Kenshi had imagined. Only his shoulder was restored. His arm didn't grow back.

Kenshi's expression changed slightly, but it was okay. It was just one arm. He would find a way later. After all, he could release jutsu without using hand seals.

Clang, clang... To avoid being ambushed by the Third Raikage again, Kenshi directly released countless black iron chains around him, layer upon layer.

Compared to Wood Release, the black iron chains' defense was stronger.

Even though the Third Raikage, whose strength had increased, could break through the black iron chains, he wouldn't be able to instantly pierce in front of him like he did before.

On Sarutobi Tsukishi's side, because of the Third Raikage's attack, Kenshi couldn't trap him in time with Wood Release. After breaking free, he continued to rush towards Kenshi at high speed.

"Ayase-senpai, that shadow clone of Kenshi's has been using shadow clones to draw chakra from the giant scroll and transfer it to Kenshi's main body. We should eliminate that shadow clone first, then we can surround and kill Kenshi."

Kenshi had used shadow clones to replenish his chakra several times. Finally, Katō Dan sensed something unusual. He immediately suggested that Ayase-senpai go and kill Kenshi's shadow clone over there.

Ayase, the wife, her eyes flashed, then she nodded in agreement and immediately changed direction, flying towards the location of Guimo and her daughter.

"Magnetic Release - Iron Sand Tidal Wave."

The Third Kazekage flew over at this time and immediately released a large-scale iron sand attack, like a celestial river pouring down.

"Wood Release - Wood Array Wall!"

Kenshi thought for a moment. Layers of five-meter-thick wooden boards rose from the ground, enveloping him, forming a giant wooden egg fifty meters wide.

The endless iron sand was blocked by the seamlessly connected wooden boards.

Kenshi inside continued to control Wood Release to block Sarutobi Tsukishi.

For now, only Sarutobi Tsukishi, with the Eight Inner Gates Formation activated, and the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki could get close and ignore his defense to kill him. The others were still a little short.

As long as he could hold back these two, everything else would be easy.

"Damn it!"

Sarutobi Tsukishi was trapped in the endless forest of trees. He couldn't get close to Kenshi for a while. His body was at its limit, and he couldn't use Evening Elephant to clear a path anymore.

Even if he got in front of Kenshi, he wouldn't have the strength to kill him anymore.

The Third Raikage couldn't do anything about Kenshi's current turtle shell either. He couldn't break through.

Even... he suspected that Kenshi had already learned his current Lightning Release Chakra Armor.

If that was the case, it would be best to trap Kenshi here.

The Third Kazekage's iron sand was the same. He couldn't do anything about Kenshi's specially defensive Wood Array Wall.

For a while, the Five Kage's plan to kill Kenshi was at a stalemate.

"No good."

After a while, the Third Raikage sensed that Kenshi's Wood Release hadn't weakened at all. His expression changed instantly.

"This guy actually doesn't need to use hand seals to release and control jutsu like this!"

"Damn it!"

The Third Raikage cursed inwardly. Then, he accelerated and flew towards the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki, who was being held back by Kenshi's shadow clone in the distant sky.

Kenshi could stall, but they couldn't.

At this time, Kenshi's main body was fixed in place. To break through all his defenses and kill him, only Ōnoki's Dust Release could do it.

Although he was reluctant, for the sake of killing Kenshi, the Third Raikage was willing to help the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki get rid of Kenshi's shadow clone.

"As expected, the other side can see through the black iron chains!"

On Guimo's side, inside the Black Iron Giant Eagle, Kenshi's shadow clone sensed Ayase, the wife, flying towards them. He knew that the perception ninja on the other side could see through the Black Iron Giant Eagle and see him inside. He knew that he was using shadow clones and the giant scroll to replenish his chakra.

"You... just rely on luck."

Quickly putting the giant scroll back into the black water space, Kenshi's shadow clone looked at the mother and daughter in front of him, who were looking tense. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he sighed and just said to them, "Rely on luck."

Then, without giving them a chance to reply, Kenshi's shadow clone retracted the Black Iron Giant Eagle. The five shadow clones instantly condensed into Ink Eagles and flew in different directions.

Guimo and her daughter fell from the sky. Yezi hugged her mother tightly. Before landing, Guimo used the Adamantine Binding Chains to protect them. They didn't get hurt, and the two of them landed safely.

"Ink Iron Rain!"

Of the five shadow clones, one of them flew towards Ayase, the wife. From a distance, Kenshi's shadow clone attacked with Ink Iron Rain.

This attack was easily blocked by Ayase, the wife, using her ink elementalization.

When they got close, within five hundred meters, Kenshi used genjutsu.

"He blocked it!"

Kenshi's shadow clone's eyes narrowed. Ayase, the wife, had blocked his genjutsu. That wasn't the key. She dared to come in, so she must have had something to rely on. But the way she blocked his genjutsu chakra was exactly the same as the Third Hokage's. That wasn't normal.

"Could it be..."

Kenshi sensed a corner outside the barrier. There was a man with very little chakra. He was motionless, and he had been carried in by someone at the beginning.

Thinking back to how the Third Hokage and now Ayase, the wife, were blocking his genjutsu.

Kenshi instantly had a guess.

It was that motionless Konoha ninja who was behind this. He had a unique perception ability that could find his main body. It was also that Konoha ninja.

Thinking about this, Kenshi's shadow clone controlled his ink jutsu and engaged in battle with Ayase, the wife.

Facing the same attack, Ayase, the wife, couldn't do anything to Kenshi's shadow clone.
