--- Chapter 181 ---

Uchiha Fugaku and Rasa hurriedly moved their gazes to the familiar voice and saw Yunlong casually hovering with a pair of golden wings.

"Yo, it's been a while." Yunlong smiled at them. "Need help?"

"I'll take that as a yes." He continued while throwing a golden needle toward the tailed beast bomb.

The tailed beast bomb disappeared upon contact and suddenly appeared in the skies, which exploded with bright white light.

BOOM!

"What the..." Uchiha Fugaku hurriedly raised his gaze and saw the night skies had become clear.

However, it wasn't the end because a powerful shockwave swept over the area and pressured the headquarters with wind pressure.

Rasa's golden walls have protected the headquarters, but the area around them has flattened to the ground.

'As expected, it was a time-space ninjutsu similar to the Fourth Hokage.' Rasa has been pondering about Yunlong's ability for years, and he finally has an answer for that.

"If he didn't teleport the tailed beast bomb away, we may have been annihilated..." Uchiha Fugaku silently muttered, to which Rasa responded with a nod.

Even though they are strong, a powerful blast like that would kill them.

They looked back at Yunlong and saw him landed on the headquarters' roof, where a teenage girl with a familiar appearance greeted him.

"It took you a while, huh, onii san," Shion commented while looking at Yunlong, who smiled at her.

Shion has grown up into a charming teenage girl. She is slightly shorter compared to Yunlong, but her beauty has definitely become prominent over the years.

She wore the golden hairpin Yunlong gifted in the past, which enhances her charm even more.

"Well, it's not a rough journey." Yunlong casually replied, to which Shion responded with a pout.

"I have used divination a lot of times, but you didn't appear even once in those futures. Hmph." Shion swayed her head. "It was only this year I suddenly saw you appear in this place."

"Haha... Is that so?" Yunlong chuckled while moving his gaze to the skies.

Uchiha Fugaku and Rasa landed on the roof and gradually approached Yunlong with a solemn expression.

"What is the current situation?" Yunlong suddenly asked.

Rasa looked at him weirdly and answered, "Akatsuki has declared war against all nations. Uchiha Madara has come back to life. It seems your warning has become true."

"I see... What about the Jinchuriki?" Yunlong questioned, which caused Rasa's expression to become cold.

A while ago, Gaara got captured by Akatsuki, and when they found he was in a grave state. Nevertheless, if Chiyo didn't sacrifice her life force for Gaara, he would probably die back then.

"They have captured every Jinchuriki, except for nine tails and eight tails," Rasa answered with a sigh.

'What actually happened?' Shikaku suddenly asked with a confused tone in Rasa and Fugaku's head.

Uchiha Fugaku calmly looked at Yunlong and replied, "A powerful reinforcement has arrived."

"Reinforcement?" Shikaku frowned. "Who?"

Uchiha Fugaku pondered for a moment, but Yunlong suddenly entered their telepathy and answered, "I'm Batman."

"Huh?" Shikaku was baffled by the sudden interference, which really caught him off guard.

--- The battlefield ---

"Father..." Uchiha Sasuke muttered with a pained expression because this was the second time his father lost his life.

"Calm yourself down. Father has already talked about this." Uchiha Itachi calmly said, to which Sasuke responded with a nod.

They focused their gazes on Uchiha Madara and saw him suddenly frown like something was wrong.

"Hee...They survived." Uchiha Madara casually commented while looking at the allied shinobi headquarters location.

It was surprising because Madara thought that the tailed beast bomb should be enough to exterminate everyone in the headquarters, but it seemed a strong person still remained there.

"What a surprise." He continued with a cold chuckle.

Uchiha Obito clicked his tongue in annoyance and said, "Tch... They are like cockroaches."

ROOAAARRR!

Ten tails roared angrily and quickly attacked allied shinobi without any care, which caused Shikamaru to frown because that wasn't a proper reaction from their enemies.

'Shikamaru. We are still alive.' Shikaku's voice suddenly appeared in Shikamaru's head, which widened his eyes for a moment.

'W-What? Father, you're still alive. What actually happened there?' Shikamaru asked with a confused expression.

Shikaku released a heavy sigh and answered, "We have a reinforcement, and the person followed by Uchiha Fugaku and 4th Kazage is moving to the battlefield now."

"I want you to restrain ten tails as long as you can until they arrive." He firmly continued, which left Shikamaru speechless.

Shikamaru massaged his temple and mumbled, "What a drag."

Uzumaki Naruto released a heavy sigh and was quickly supported by Sakura because assisting everyone on the battlefield was more exhausting than he thought.

"You're really reckless, Naruto." Sakura quickly healed Naruto's injuries.

"I'm just doing my best, that's all, Sakura-chan." Naruto closed his eyes and tried to sense the surroundings, which surprised him because he felt a familiar chakra approaching the battlefield.

Naruto smiled a little and muttered, "At last, we still had a reinforcement."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Sakura asked.

"Wait, and something would surprise you." Naruto laughed heartily.

"Naruto. Are you done with your support? Aren't you afraid another friend of yours died?" Uchiha Obito suddenly mocked, which caused everyone to frown, especially Naruto and Hinata.

"Where is your hatred? I killed your friend after all." He continued.

Naruto raised his gaze and calmly replied, "I'll definitely bring you down, Obito... Just wait."

"Then, Die." Uchiha Obito controlled the ten tails, and it immediately opened its giant mouth, accumulating an enormous amount of negative and positive chakra.

Uchiha Madara crossed his arms and looked down at the allied shinobi forces.

"Well... Let's see how many of you survived this." He plainly activated his Susanoo, and it did a few hand signs, which caused everyone to look at him in horror because they knew what'd happen next.

"Haa...!" Uchiha Obito launched the tailed beast bomb to Naruto.

"Tengai Shinsei." Uchiha Madara indifferently said.

Shikamaru solemnly looked at everyone and nodded at Ino, who had been connecting everyone's mind.

All allied shinobi, except for a few people, formed hand signs and clapped their hands in unison, which created an echo.

.

"EARTH RELEASE: EARTH WALL!"

Thousands of earth walls burst out of the ground, and the tailed beast bomb's sheer momentum destroyed them one by one.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Every wall destroyed made everyone's face solemn because if they couldn't contain this tailed beast bomb, they'd die.

"WRYYYYY!" Killer Bee raised his spirit and transformed into the eight tails.

He launched a few tailed beast bombs toward the enormous ten tails' tailed beast bomb, but his attacks did not even slow it down.

Killer Bee kicked the ground and stood in front of the last earth wall so that he could protect everyone.

"Let me help you." Uchiha Fugaku released his Susanoo and stood beside Killer Bee.

"Golden Walls." Rasa suddenly created a golden fortress to protect everyone.

"Father!?" Uchiha Sasuke, Uchiha Itachi, and Gaara looked at them with a surprised expression.

BOOM!

The last earth wall got destroyed, and the enormous tailed beast bomb comes into their vision.

Killer Bee and Uchiha Fugaku tried very hard to contain the tailed beast bomb, and it suddenly disappeared, which caused Fugaku and Rasa to frown because this moment was awkwardly familiar.

A three-pronged kunai stabbed the ground in front of Naruto, and Minato Namikaze appeared with a flash of yellow lightning.

Three other people landed beside Minato. They were the former Hokages, who came back to life because of Orochimaru's Edo Tensei.

"I'm not late, right?" Minato calmly asked while looking at Naruto.

"Nope, you came at the right time, dad." Naruto quickly gave him a thumbs up.

"Don't let your guard down. Madara's attack has not appeared yet." Tobirama Senju warned and looked at the skies with a cold expression.

"Don't worry. I'll handle that." Hashirama Senju replied.

He was about to use his sage mode, but a person with golden wings suddenly appeared in the skies.

"Who?" Hashirama Senju tilted his head in confusion.

An enormous meteor pierced down the atmosphere and quickly fell down to the battlefield with heavy momentum.

Yunlong cracked his neck slightly and picked up a golden bow out of nowhere, which seemed to appear from thin air.

"An Uchiha?" Uchiha Madara calmly looked at Yunlong, who also had eternal mangekyou sharingan.

Yunlong pulled the bowstrings with all his might and a golden arrow placed on it, which ignited with crimson lightning.

"Yunlong?" Uchiha Itachi muttered.

"You know him, brother?" Uchiha Sasuke asked, to which Itachi responded with a nod.

"He's a monster." Uchiha Itachi solemnly answered, which baffled his younger brother.

"Eh?"

Yunlong released his fingers from the bowstring and launched the arrow toward the meteor, which confused everyone who did not know him.

"What's he going to do with such a frail arrow?"

"Is he boasting in this situation?"

"Grow." Yunlong suddenly clenched his fist.

The arrow expanded into a giant golden pillar and destroyed the meteor into million pieces, which widened everyone's eyes.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
