A plump Salamander, a gigantic toad, a mountain-like Katsuyu, and a winding colossal snake suddenly appeared on the battlefield, causing the surrounding Konoha Ninja to Body Flicker away one after another.

"Hmph! The foul snake from the Ryuchi Cave is indeed repulsive!"

Before their opponent Hanzo could speak, the massive Gamabunta, puffing on a cigarette, spoke up. His hand rested on the hilt of a huge short sword, his eyes glaring unfavorably at the purple horned serpent.

Tsunade and Jiraiya looked at Orochimaru with surprise. They hadn't heard about Orochimaru becoming a summoner for the Ryuchi Cave.

Noticing the gaze of his two teammates, Orochimaru's lips curled slightly upward. These two had been making significant progress in the past two years. He, the original genius, had stagnated due to various trivial matters.

He had obtained the Ryuchi Cave Summoning scroll before and became a summoner for the Ryuchi Cave. Since then, he had been looking forward to this moment.

Him! Orochimaru! The most genius ninja in the team! He's back!

"Orochimaru! You didn't mention that you'd be fighting alongside the toads from Mount Myoboku! I despise toads the most!"

Even the serpent beneath Orochimaru was shaking its head, trying to throw him off. Orochimaru quickly stabilized himself, lowering his body, and said in a deep voice, "Manda! State your terms!"

"Hmph! Offerings must be added!"

Only then did Manda stop shaking its head. With its emerald snake pupils, it scanned the surrounding Konoha Ninja, its snake tongue constantly flickering.

Orochimaru's face stiffened, then turned ugly. He gritted his teeth and said, "The Rain Ninja across from us, you can have as many as you want."

"Oh, is there discord? And not just one discord but more?"

At this moment, Hanzo, standing on top of the Salamander, finally spoke, his tone full of sarcasm. He looked at Gamabunta, Katsuyu, and the giant snake Manda disdainfully, saying:

"Are these insects giving you the illusion that you can defeat me?"

In an instant, Bunta and Manda, who had been eyeing each other warily, stopped their internal movements. Their eyes, full of killing intent, fell on Hanzo, but Hanzo remained unfazed.

He could tell that the summoning beasts of these three individuals were the ninja beasts of the three major sanctuaries. But so what? The gap between them couldn't be bridged by ninja beasts alone. Even if the ninja beasts came from so-called sacred places, it didn't matter!

Bunta, with the most explosive temper, couldn't hold back. He leaped towards Hanzo, his massive short sword aimed at Hanzo's head atop the Salamander.

"Be careful!"

The sound of chains echoed as Hanzo vanished. The sword in Bunta's hand was entangled with chains and pulled away, while at the other end of the chains was the scythe held by Hanzo.

Hanzo swung the scythe, aiming for Bunta's forehead. Jiraiya, standing on Bunta's head, quickly formed seals, spewing out ignited oil in one breath.

The flames were slashed by Hanzo, but they also stopped his descent. He tapped his feet on Bunta's head for a moment before retreating to create distance.

And here, the battle became the signal for the large-scale engagement of the two armies. Both Rain Ninja and Konoha Ninja crossed the charred middle ground, rushing towards each other.

"Minato, oil bombs!"

Tatsuma abandoned Nawaki and approached Minato.

Minato nodded, quickly forming seals with his hands. In his open mouth, globules of oil spewed out towards the Rain Ninja.
