The moment Minato Namikaze appeared, the Akatsuki forces charging head-on had not yet reacted, but the Iwagakure forces, who were much further away, were the first to fall into disarray.
"It's a yellow flash!"
"Konoha's Yellow Flash is here!"
"Run! Don't let him target you!"
"Quick! Run! If we encounter this guy, we can ignore the mission!"
At that moment, the young and naive Deidara was once again deeply shocked.
However, the shock last time was positive, while this time it was negative.
This was the first time he had ever seen the ninjas of his own village behave so disgracefully.
Even before the battle had begun, they were already terrified, as if the title possessed some kind of terrifying magic, spreading fear simply by reciting it.
His shameful behavior filled him with immense embarrassment.
However, Minato Namikaze, who arrived soon, showed him the reason for everyone's fear!
In a single exchange, the throats of two Akatsuki assault ninjas who were charging forward, as well as an Iwagakure ninja who had glanced at them, were all slit!
Dilarda only caught a glimpse of the figure flashing by, as if the scene before him had momentarily frozen.
The next moment, before anyone could even see what happened, the blood of the three victims gushed out, and they collapsed to the ground without a sound!
In that instant, the usually arrogant and unruly Deidara tasted fear on the battlefield for the first time in his life.
So fast!
It was so fast that you could barely see what was happening!
Is this what's known as the fastest speed in the ninja world?
Ahead, the Konoha troops, who were on the verge of collapse, instantly rallied and were full of fighting spirit, with cheers rising and falling.
Looking at his own side, Deira knew without even looking back that many Iwagakure ninja had already begun to flee irresponsibly.
After all, the order to abandon the mission upon seeing Konoha's Yellow Flash was personally given by their own Tsuchikage.
In a single instant, one person completely rewrote the situation on the battlefield!
For young Deira, this scene was one he would never forget!
But today may well be the most extraordinary day of his life!
The scenes that Deidara would remember for the rest of his life were far from over!
Minato Namikaze's arrival instantly shattered the morale of Iwagakure, but it did not shatter the Akatsuki organization!
Call them fearless like newborn calves, or mock them for not learning from their mistakes until they hit a wall.
At least for this moment, not a single member of the four Akatsuki battalions present was frightened into cowering and fleeing.
Not only did no one run away, but they also quickly responded and adjusted in a very short time!
"Yellow flash! Fire flare!"
Hold the line and proceed according to the training procedures! Clear the surrounding kunai projectiles first, and be quick!
On the battlefield where Iwagakure, one of the five great ninja villages, had been terrified and lost all fighting spirit, the newly formed Akatsuki organization surprised everyone by demonstrating amazing willpower and execution!
The assault battalion ceased its charge and retreated in an orderly manner while continuously clearing away the surrounding kunai.
Some of them created shadow clones to pick up kunai from the ground and trees and throw them far away.
Some used ninjutsu to violently destroy all the kunai within their line of sight!
Seeing this, Minato Namikaze's expression changed slightly, and he sighed inwardly.
His previous suspicions were indeed correct: the boy from the Land of Rain named Shiba Kiyokawa was indeed exceptionally knowledgeable about him!
Now, the enemy has even disseminated this intelligence to every ninja in their forces!
This respect is truly profound.
Despite his sighs, he faced questions from his subordinate ninjas.
"Lord Minato, what do you need us to do?"
His answer remained unchanged: "Help me pick up those kunai and throw them back; the rest, I'll take care of!"
"Leave the rest to me," was Minato Namikaze's most frequently uttered phrase on the battlefield, representing unparalleled confidence and courage!
It has now become the most inspiring phrase for Konoha ninjas!
It was as if just hearing those words made them feel no fear at all!
The next moment, Minato Namikaze fearlessly charged forward once again, facing the well-prepared Akatsuki forces!
"Watch out for the kunai he throws!" shouted an Akatsuki commander from the battle formation.
Minato Namikaze, however, didn't care about this.
Even setting aside his invincible Flying Thunder God Technique, he is still an all-around elite Jonin!
The moment he rushed to the front, under the astonished gaze of a young Akatsuki member on the other side, he did not rush to throw his kunai. Instead, he raised his hand and instantly condensed a bright blue energy ball in his palm!
No-seal ninjutsu—Rasengan!
This instantaneous, no-mark ninjutsu caught the opponent off guard.
"boom!"
With a single strike, the Akatsuki member directly in front of him was sent flying.
The next moment, several ninjutsu followed, but Minato Namikaze vanished from everyone's sight in an instant.
When he reappeared, he flashed into the formation right next to the Akatsuki member who had been sent flying, then formed hand seals and slammed his hand on the ground!
"Spiritual communication!"
It turns out that while using the Rasengan attack, he also managed to leave a Flying Thunder God mark on his opponent!
The moment the summoning technique was completed, the Akatsuki's fourth battalion, which had been in perfect formation, was forced to scatter.
"Retreat immediately! Support battalion, use Earth Escape! Assault battalion, spread out! Reconnaissance battalion, retreat!"
The giant toad exploded, giving the Akatsuki organization their first real sense of pressure from a top-tier ninja!
In just one charge by the yellow flash, they suffered several casualties.
What's even more terrifying is that their original formation was disrupted by the large summoning beast, which made it impossible for them to focus on clearing Minato Namikaze's kunai!
Next, the casualties will only continue to rise visibly!
The Iwagakure ninjas behind them all looked terrified, and many of them kept talking as if they had received a definite endorsement.
"I told you to run! Why won't you believe me? How could we possibly withstand the yellow flash!"
These words sounded incredibly noisy to young Deidara!
He was still at an age where he hadn't been toughened up, so he couldn't understand: We Iwagakure had even killed the Third Raikage, who was known as the strongest in the generation, so why were we so afraid of a Jonin from Konoha?
The enemy may be very strong, but do we not even have the courage to face them?
Is there really no one willing to fight?
The next moment, a hurried yet firm voice came clearly from not far away, like a beam of light piercing the darkness!
"Support battalion, use the Underworld Swamp to contain the toads! Assault battalion, engage in battle! The signal has been given; the leader will not abandon us! Hold on! For the Land of Rain, for—"
Although the Akatsuki member's voice was cut short, he was swiftly killed by Minato Namikaze before he could finish speaking.
But after him, hundreds of people shouted in unison, continuing the unfinished vow.
"For the Land of Rain, for a bright and beautiful blue tomorrow!!"
At that moment, Deidara seemed to emerge from the deep sea, and the suffocating pressure around him vanished in an instant!
It turns out that not everyone was terrified!
It turns out that not everyone lacks the courage to face that title!
In stark and glaring contrast to the disgraceful performance of Iwagakure, the Akatsuki organization in the Land of Rain continues its tenacious and resolute resistance!
Even at the cost of sacrifice, we will not retreat an inch!
They shouted loud and unified slogans, their fighting spirit burning like a raging fire!
At that moment, young Deidara was once again deeply shocked, and his longing and yearning for the Akatsuki organization could no longer be suppressed.
This time, his heart truly flew out of the Land of Earth.
