It would also distract them. Of course, his granddaughter absolutely must not be on this battlefield. She must not be harmed.
"Yes."
The two Iwagakure Jonin then prepared to leave. This was not a battle they could participate in.
Their duty was simply to protect Kurotsuchi from harm. Before leaving, Kurotsuchi looked at her grandfather and father.
"Then be careful, both of you."
After saying this, she left with the Iwagakure Jonin who were accompanying her.
Only after watching his granddaughter leave did Onoki finally feel at ease. There were no more worries holding him back.
He turned to look at the figure standing atop the tailed beast. In his heart, there was unease, but also excitement. Perhaps now he could wash away the shame of the past, no longer the weakling he once was.
Now, he was the Third Tsuchikage.
Ryosuke had the Five-Tails stop walking. Looking at those people in the distance, the red-purple-haired Roshi, the strong man Akatsuchi, and of course the Third Tsuchikage Onoki flying in the air.
With his current vision, he could naturally also see Kurotsuchi escaping into the distance.
Interesting. All the targets are actually here this time.
That Roshi, Akatsuchi, and Onoki — he didn't take them seriously.
Facing these guys, of course he wanted to subdue them, so he would just show his overwhelming strength.
Dialogue, persuasion, reasoning — none of those are as convincing as a big fist.
But what he cared more about was Kurotsuchi. As expected.
Right now, Kurotsuchi was still quite young, maybe just a little older than Haku.
To be honest, he was a bit disappointed — she couldn't immediately become his resource.
But even at this young age, her long legs were already a clear advantage — very promising.
So then, just take her back and raise her for now.
He said slowly:
"Five-Tails, Zabuza — you two stay here and guard Haku and Fu. I'll go alone."
"If necessary, keep some distance."
"Yes, Divine King-sama."
Five-Tails and Zabuza naturally understood that Divine King-sama had arrived at his destination.
Five-Tails looked at those people in the distance. That was indeed Onoki, and that red-haired guy should be the Jinchuriki of the Four-Tails.
Honestly, it had been a long time since it had seen the Four-Tails. Hopefully, that guy would be released.
This time, they had finally found the one who could lead all the tailed beasts.
Zabuza, of course, understood Divine King-sama's meaning — he was probably about to unleash great power again.
After speaking, Ryosuke directly jumped down from the Five-Tails and slowly walked toward those people.
Just like that, he walked to the very front of the village.
Roshi looked at the black-clothed, white-masked man in the distance and immediately became interested.
"Let me be the one to meet this so-called Uchiha Madara."
This guy actually dared come to deal with him — it must be to seize the tailed beast inside him.
He alone might not be the opponent's match, but he had two strong allies beside him.
Onoki quickly spoke:
"You, be careful."
This Roshi guy was too impulsive.
But letting him probe the current Uchiha Madara wasn't a bad idea either.
Let's see how much power the old Uchiha Madara still had.
Roshi didn't respond to Onoki. Of course, he would be cautious. He had no intention of charging in.
Instead, he cast a long-range ninjutsu.
He quickly formed hand signs and took a deep breath.
"Yoton: Shakugaryūgan no Jutsu!" (Lava Release: Scorching River Flowing Rock Technique)
He spat out multiple lava balls from his mouth, shooting them toward the approaching enemy.
Ryosuke didn't expect that as soon as he arrived, the other side was already making a move.
Looking at those lava balls with temperatures higher than normal Fire Release.
Against such a jutsu, Ryosuke had no intention of countering with Fire Release.
After all, they were rock-based, and flames couldn't possibly burn such things away completely.
They would only explode and scatter everywhere.
But now he had the Rinnegan, which had already improved his body. Even without activating it, he possessed chakra of all six nature types, including Water Release.
He extended his right hand.
"Water Release: Water Shockwave"
As Ryosuke gathered chakra, an enormous stream of water gushed out from the center of his palm.
It directly shot toward those scorching lava balls. Instantly, those lava balls turned into black rocky stones and fell to the ground.
The Rinnegan not only allowed Ryosuke to use six types of chakra nature techniques, but also let him use them without hand signs.
This was the power of the Sage's Eyes. He didn't know if other Rinnegan users had this ability, but he could feel that he did.
Perhaps it was a special ability of his Rinnegan.
And the water he used wasn't natural water, but water formed from his chakra. His chakra was extremely abundant, and the amount of water released was massive.
Onoki, who was watching carefully, widened his eyes at this scene.
He originally guessed that Uchiha Madara, when faced with such an attack, would either dodge or use the divine power of his Mangekyo Sharingan, Susanoo, to block it head-on.
Because Susanoo had extremely strong defense. Even Roshi's lava balls might not cause much damage. But he never expected that this guy would actually use Water Release. That left him completely shocked.
Uchiha Madara was once the strongest ninja of the Uchiha clan. Naturally powerful, and the Uchiha were famous for Fire Release. How could he possibly use Water Release?
This completely didn't match Madara's character. And it was a jutsu without hand signs. Madara shouldn't be this skilled in Water Release, right?
He shouted, "Who exactly are you?!"
Roshi at the side was also a bit confused. Why was Onoki asking that? Wasn't this guy Uchiha Madara?
He didn't expect his Lava Release trump card to be countered so easily.
His Lava Release was meant to counter Water Release, it wasn't like Fire Release, which could be countered by water.
'What a terrifying guy.'
Ryosuke didn't respond to him.
This guy clearly doesn't understand the Uchiha clan at all. Fire Release was their favorite jutsu. Even their clan symbol was a flaming fan, not to mention Uchiha Madara was the strongest of them all.
