“Find an opportunity to seize the Basho Fan, depriving them of their long-range attack capabilities.”
Renye activated his Three-Tomoe Sharingan, staring at the Basho Fan being swung in Ginkaku’s hand.
Once they lost the Basho Fan, Ginkaku and Kinkaku would have no long-range attack methods.
They could then coordinate to effectively restrain the two brothers.
Aside from the Basho Fan, there were ways to deal with the other Six Paths Tools…
This would greatly increase the probability of victory.
“Understood!” The others had no objections.
They had already witnessed the power of the Basho Fan and agreed it needed to be dealt with first.
“Be careful of their Tailed Beast Transformation…” Renye warned.
At present, Jinchuriki had only recently appeared, and almost no one could use Tailed Beast Transformation in combat.
Unless the seal loosened and the Tailed Beast wanted to leave the Jinchuriki’s body, then the Tailed Beast Transformation would appear.
In such a situation, the Jinchuriki would have already lost their sanity, unable to distinguish friend from foe.
Since the war began, no Village had deployed Jinchuriki to the battlefield.
After Tailed Beast Transformation, various physical abilities would greatly increase, possessing super-fast attack speed and extremely strong self-healing capabilities.
As long as their Chakra was not exhausted, they could quickly recover from injuries in battle and maintain combat effectiveness.
It was clearly unrealistic for Renye and the others to kill the two; they could only seal them using the Six Paths Tools.
For instance, the Crimson Gourd in Kinkaku’s hand could perfectly seal the two.
The Crimson Gourd could even seal the Eight-Tails, let alone Ginkaku and Kinkaku.
“Try not to let them enter Tailed Beast Transformation; it’s best to end the battle before they transform!” Renye drew the Tachi from his waist and, with a flash, appeared on the battlefield.
Seeing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others quickly followed.
“Swish, swish, swish––”
The figures of the six suddenly appeared on the battlefield.
The rampaging Ginkaku and Kinkaku naturally noticed the six people who had appeared.
They stopped their slaughter in unison, tilting their heads to look at Renye, who was leading them.
“Brother, these guys seem pretty strong!” Ginkaku sneered.
Compared to killing weaklings, they preferred to kill strong opponents…
They enjoyed torturing their opponents, reveling in the expressions of fear and pain on their faces.
The more the enemy suffered, the more they enjoyed it.
“Hehehe, you’re right, little brother.” Kinkaku grinned.
Clearly, the arrival of Renye and the others had ignited their desire for battle.
“There are six of them…” Kinkaku wrapped the Crimson Rope around his right arm and sneered, “Let’s each take on three!”
“Okay, Brother!” Ginkaku excitedly licked the corner of his mouth.
The two of them didn’t even put the six Leaf Jonin in front of them in their eyes; they had slaughtered no small number of Leaf Jonin before.
So what if six more came?
They would still be easily dealt with!
“I hope you don’t die too quickly…” The two sneered as they launched their attack.
“Our squad will deal with Kinkaku, and you all will deal with Ginkaku.” Renye said to Hiruzen Sarutobi, “Be mindful of their Six Paths Tools.”
“Understood!” Hiruzen Sarutobi used the Summoning Jutsu to summon Enma, transforming him into the Adamantine Staff, and proactively engaged Ginkaku in battle.
“Danzo, Koharu, be careful not to be…”
Before he finished speaking, Kinkaku had already arrived close by, swinging his right arm towards Renye, who was at the forefront.
The Crimson Rope’s material was incredibly hard, imbued with high-intensity Chakra, capable of resisting Ninjutsu, and very effective in close combat.
As long as a Konoha Ninja was touched by the Crimson Rope, their soul word would be extracted, and then his brother could use the Seven-Star Sword and the Sage of Six Paths Treasures - Red Gourd to seal them.
“Hehehe, die, brat!”
Kinkaku grinned, revealing sharp teeth, as if he had already envisioned Renye being struck by the Crimson Rope.
Because the Konoha Ninja were unaware of this information, this move had succeeded countless times for him; it could be said to be unfailingly effective!
Facing the incoming fist, Renye retreated, dodging the punch, and the Tachi in his hand traced a crescent arc, slashing towards Kinkaku’s neck.
“Clang!”
Amidst the sound of metal colliding, Kinkaku easily raised his arm to block the Tachi.
“Hehehe, keep going, brat!”
Having missed, Renye put distance between them, his Three-Tomoe Sharingan locking onto Kinkaku to prevent a sudden attack.
Three Shuriken slid from Danzo Shimura’s sleeve, while Utatane Koharu held a kunai, her face wary.
The three formed a triangular formation, encircling Kinkaku.
“Brats, do you think you can defeat me like this?” Kinkaku sneered, “You’re truly too naive!”
Faced with the encirclement, he didn’t put the three in his eyes…
He was merely enjoying the thrill of the battle; once he grew tired of it, he could then torture his opponents!
“Wind Release: Vacuum Wave!” Danzo formed hand signs, making the first move.
Facing the sharp wind blades, Kinkaku didn’t even bother to dodge; the Crimson Rope in his hand suddenly extended, lashing out like a golden lightning bolt towards the Wind Release.
With a loud “Thwack!”
The Vacuum Wave was actually dispersed in mid-air by the rope!
Danzo Shimura’s eyes widened in shock, not expecting his attack to be so easily neutralized.
The power of the Crimson Rope exceeded his imagination; it truly lived up to its reputation as a Six Paths Tool…
Just as Danzo was stunned, the Crimson Rope suddenly flew from Kinkaku’s hand, coiling around his neck like a venomous snake.
“Don’t get caught!” Utatane Koharu threw a kunai, deflecting the rope’s tip.
“Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!”
A massive fireball erupted from Renye’s mouth, carrying intense heat as it surged towards Kinkaku.
Renye’s Three-Tomoe Sharingan spun wildly, predicting Kinkaku’s next move, appearing preemptively at his anticipated location, and bringing his Tachi down.
Kinkaku had just leaped to dodge the fireball and, still in mid-air, hadn’t had time to reorient himself when he saw the sharp Tachi coming towards him.
His pupils constricted; he hadn’t expected Renye to know his movements.
With no leverage in the air, he could only quickly retract the Crimson Rope and wrap it around his hand to defend.
Renye had already anticipated Kinkaku would raise his hand to block, so he switched from a chop to a thrust, aiming directly at the opponent’s right shoulder.
If this strike connected, the battle could be declared over.
“It’s over!” Kinkaku’s face showed terror; it was too late to dodge.
Just as Renye thought he was about to succeed, Kinkaku suddenly smiled.
“Hehehe, did you really think your sneak attack succeeded?!”
Before he finished speaking, a red Chakra cloak appeared around him, forcefully blocking the attack.
In the blink of an eye, he had completed his partial Tailed Beast Transformation!
The Tachi pierced it without causing any ripple.
Renye’s pupils constricted; he hadn’t expected Kinkaku’s Tailed Beast Transformation to be so fast.
This was something he had not anticipated…
“Die!”
Kinkaku violently slammed his palm forward. Renye barely managed to block with his Tachi, and he was sent flying over ten meters, breaking two large trees before stopping, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
He raised a hand to wipe away the blood from his mouth, muttering softly:
“The power of Tailed Beast Transformation is actually this strong…”
