Naruto Law of the Devil

Chapter 104: War Resumes

After the intense battle a few days ago, Yu experienced significant growth in both strength and combat experience.

The integration of Thread Fruit and the Devil puppet's abilities became more seamless, and Yu's Chakra became increasingly refined, possessing the qualifications to impact the level of a Kage. The aura emanating from him at times was no longer fitting for a boy of eight or nine years old.

The battlefield indeed proved to be the best shortcut to enhancing strength.

What kind of monster is he?!

How old is he exactly? Has he already reached the level of the Hokage and the legendary Sannin?!

Although Yu spoke casually, the confidence revealed in his words shocked everyone present.

While achieving the rank of Kage at Yu's age was not unprecedented in the history of ninja, during the tumultuous Warring States era before the establishment of the Five Great Ninja Villages, there were many such individuals.

For instance, the Fourth Mizukage, who recently took office in the Hidden Mist Village, was said to be a youth similar in age to Yu. However, at least he was a Jinchuriki of the Three-Tails, possessing the power of a Tailed Beast.

And Yu? Despite possessing the unique bloodline limit of Thread Release, he is ultimately an unknown civilian ninja. Why does he, at this age, possess such unconventional strength?

"In tomorrow's battle, the Iwa ninja suffered losses last time, and they're likely to deploy even more forces," Akimichi Doto, the composed one, coughed to draw everyone's attention back to the upcoming fight. "But I've already sent a secret letter to Hokage-sama. I believe new reinforcements will soon come our way."

"Really? That's great!"

Upon hearing that reinforcements were on the way, the morale of the others skyrocketed.

"However..."

At this point, Akimichi Doto looked at Yu with a serious expression, "Tomorrow's battle, we'll be relying on you, Yu."

After all, from the previous battle, everyone knew that without Yu's performance in this war, Konoha would face total annihilation.

Feeling the solemn gaze of all the present ninjas, Yu's expression became serious, "Rest assured, leave it to me."

Tyrant, Michael, and now with the power of Toshogun...

Even if I face the fully-transformed Five tails Kokuo itself, I have the power to fight!

Watching the evening sky outside the camp turn red, Yu silently clenched his fist.

...

A night passed without words.

Early the next morning, the golden dawn shot up like an arrow.

After a night, the Iwa ninja army had set up a temporary camp outside the forest.

"Yawn..."

"When do you think those Konoha ninjas will come out?"

The Iwa ninja on guard duty, who hadn't closed his eyes all night, couldn't help but yawn.

"Those guys should be too scared to come out by now..."

"After all, Master Han's fully-transformed Tailed Beast is not something human strength can contend with."

Thinking of the destructive power of Five tails Jinchuriki Han on the battlefield a few days ago, another Iwa ninja seemed to have swallowed a calming pill.
