The End of the Ninja World

Chapter 259 The End of the Ninja World

Before Minato Namikaze even opened his eyes, the image of a "school of fish" had already appeared in his consciousness.

The air moved around him with a special rhythm, like a school of fish in the deep sea. Minato Namikaze was already used to this feeling. He knew very well that as long as he used the Flying Thunder God Technique, he could enter the "school of fish" in space and complete a super teleport that crossed distances.

This is not a pure land, but... the ninja world of the present.

A complex emotion flashed across his azure eyes. Minato Namikaze subconsciously touched his chest. The tearing pain had now completely disappeared, but Yuto Hyuga's cold and resolute gaze was etched into his heart like a scar.

Minato Namikaze sighed softly, and the dust and sand of the filth fell down, swirling in the air.

"Fourth generation, now is not the time for sentimental reminiscences, cough..."

Orochimaru's voice rang out, hoarser than usual. He looked quite miserable, with a large hole ripped into his right chest, blood gushing out. Small white snakes wriggled frantically, trying to repair his body, but to no avail.

"What amazing magic." The black-haired man standing in the middle of the room spoke, stroking his chin and examining the object carefully. His voice was deep, but his mannerisms had a childlike quality.

"The wound won't heal... It smells of ocular power on it, is it Uchiha? But it's not exactly the same..."

"It's Hyuga Yuto," Minato Namikaze said softly.

"Although it's much stronger than before, I'm certain that this is Hyuga Yuto's eye power."

The reanimated Hashirama paused for a moment, then burst into laughter, tears streaming down his face.

"Hahahaha... Hyuga! Ryusuke has a descendant with quite a bit of backbone."

The white-haired Tobirama frowned in displeasure:

"Brother, don't talk like that, it's embarrassing."

"Tobirama, at least give me some face..."

"Shut up."

Tobirama Senju glanced at Minato Namikaze's divine robes:

"The Fourth Hokage?"

"Yes, First Generation Master, Second Generation Master, I have long heard of your legendary stories."

"Ah! So many generations already, Konoha is truly amazing, hahaha." Hashirama Senju next to him started laughing foolishly again.

"Gentlemen, let's end our reminiscing here." Orochimaru's face was deathly pale, and his voice was weak.

"I am the Fifth Hokage, Orochimaru. Minato, don't look so surprised. After you die, I..." He stopped mid-sentence and spat out another mouthful of blood, which tragically stained his chest red.

Tobirama frowned:

"Try to speak as little as possible. Where's Sarutobi, Godai?"

"Our teacher is still on the front lines..." As they spoke, Orochimaru, Hashirama, Tobirama, and Minato Namikaze seemed to sense something and all looked towards the northwest.

Rumble rumble rumble...

The earth trembled, the sea receded, and meteors fell.

A cataclysmic force swept through, and even the sturdy and heavy houses of Konoha Village could not withstand it for even a fraction of a second. The Hokage Building was uprooted, and the streets were smashed by flying boulders.

The Fire Shadow Rock, carved with five heads, has crumbled and turned into ruins.

The hurricane made the clothes of the four Hokage flutter loudly, like roaring battle flags.

"Such terrifying chakra... Both sides in this battle are top-tier fighters." Hashirama Senju's expression was serious, his eyes burning with intense fighting spirit.

"Let's go, everyone. The battle is fierce, and the scales of victory are tipping in Asahi's favor towards Yuto." Orochimaru paused, then continued:

"It may sound shameless, but you are all former Hokage who died for Konoha. For the sake of the village, please do your part one last time in your reanimated forms."

Amidst the earth-shattering tremors, the four Hokage exchanged glances and nodded.

They moved at high speeds, with Minato Namikaze being the fastest. Even after being resurrected, the Yellow Flash's speed was not diminished at all.

During their journey to the core battlefield, the Hokage witnessed a devastated land. Monster-like traces etched scars into the mountains and valleys, and peaks were cleaved in two everywhere. The silver moonlight was not as bright as usual, and the world was shrouded in darkness.

Even ordinary people can vaguely sense that the culprit behind this apocalyptic scene can no longer be described by the word "ninja".

Crossing the shattered earth, the severed rivers, and the mountains of corpses, the Hokage finally arrived at the core battlefield.

In an instant, they realized that their previous judgment that "the moon is not as bright as before" was a mistake.

The moon is still the same moon, only it's now obscured by a giant black sphere.

It stretches across the sky, its diameter measured in kilometers, higher than the highest mountains and wider than the widest lakes, like a dark moon dragging across the earth. It is this dark moon that blocks out the light, making the world darker than usual.

—This is a giant Seeking the Way Jewel!

At the top of the giant Truth-Seeking Ball, Hyuga Yuto, no longer a caged bird, turned around.

"Yo... Minato-senpai, how ironic, you who are called the Yellow Flash are always a step behind."

He was dressed as a great ninja from the Warring States period, with crimson armor, a long sword at his waist, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, and one eye tightly closed. Even as one of the Six Paths of the World, it took him a great deal of effort to sweep through the ninja world.

Hyuga Yuto stood up, pointed one hand towards the night sky, and let the other hand hang naturally. A giant Truth-Seeking Ball fell, and an unparalleled super technique erupted.

The black moon fell.

"Sorry, this world is mine now."
