Chapter 59 - Onoki's retreat plan

I was going around the battlefield to find Onoki. But no matter how I search him, I couldn't locate him on the battlefield. Just then, I saw something similar to Kamehameha, south far away from the battlefield. I immediately knew Onoki was battling there.

There was no jutsu looked more similar to Kamehameha than Onoki's particle style: Atomic jutsu. I led Boss to the place.

Soon enough, I saw Onoki battling with Hiruzen and Hanzo. I honestly surprised that Onoki was able to handle those two. But then, Onoki was able to fly, which gave him a great advantage.

Both Hiruzen and Hanzo already brought out their respective summonings while Onoki was using his particle style at them from high above.

Battle was hectic and full of chaos. Three of them were all freaking top Kage-levels, no wonder why they are far away from the battlefield. They might literally kill everyone, including both allies and enemies there.

I wanted to spectate their battle but knew now was not the time to do that. Boss entered their fighting zone, causing three's attention on us.

Onoki was about to attack a new intruder but stop when he saw it was me. He also kind of showed a bit of relief?

"Isn't that the kid who sneaked away from me? If I remember well, Konoha wanted to capture that kid, right?" Hanzo asked.

"Yes, that is the kid who killed one of our elite shinobi and Senju clan successor. Konoha already issued Bingo Book for him. I didn't expect he has Eagle summon with him. It seems like I still underestimated that kid."

Onoki just ignored Hiruzen and Hanzo's conversation and ordered me without even asking me why I was here.

"Listen, Genji. I am glad that you came here. I am sure you came here to ask for retreat permission, right? Lend me your ear. I will explain my plan."

I am a bit shocked that Onoki knew the reason I came to found him. It seems he didn't have any messengers to relay his plan for a retreat as messengers would get killed immediately by Hiruzen and Hanzo. Onoki and I went flying high to not let Hiruzen and Hanzo eavesdrop us.

Then Onoki explained the retreat plan to me.

"Genji, blah blah blah....."

I am quite surprised that Onoki's strategy was pretty good. Only Onoki would be able to come up with this ridiculous and good escape plan. Also, this plan might save most of us from this hellish place.

"Got it, Tsuchikage-sama. I will execute the plan."

After receiving the order, Boss and I went away. Hiruzen and Hanzo tried to intercept me, but as Boss flew away too fast, they couldn't capture me. Also, Onoki helped me escape and continued to battle with two of them.

Boss and I went back to the battlefield to execute Onoki's order. The battlefield is messed as always. Dead corpses and screaming were everywhere.

I went down and started to group up roughly 100 elite Iwa Jounins secretly and started to order them around. All 100 elite shinobi didn't believe me first. But when I showed Onoki's Tsuchikage-hat, they all agreed to follow my orders.

"Okay, this is Tsuchikage-sama's order. I want all of you to go to the Northwest 5 km away and prepare for a large-scale Earth style: Mobile core jutsu combination. The scale should be enough to fit the whole Iwa shinobi force.

When you hear Eagle cry for 3 times, I want you all to raise the ground level to at least 50m. Then your jobs are done. Tsuchikage-sama will take care of the rest."

Obviously, the next step will be Onoki carrying the land by his one hand, showing off his power, and escape to Iwa. Just like how he did to turtle island during the fourth great ninja war. I am sure everyone already got the idea, so I didn't explain further.

After every 100 elite Jounins were gone to their job, I hopped on the Boss and flew high.

5 minutes later, I cleared my voice a bit and started to shout at every Iwa shinobi on the battlefield.

"ATTENTION, ATTENTION!! TO EVERY IWA SHINOBI. THIS IS TSUCHIKAGE-SAMA'S DIRECT ORDER. ALL IWA SHINOBI ARE TO GATHER AT TO NORTHWEST 5 KM AWAY AND WAIT THERE. DOENS'T MATTER WHETHER ENEMY CHASES YOU OR NEEDS TO TAKE A DUMP OR INJURED, YOU MUST MAKE IT THERE WITHIN 15 MINUTES.

I REPEAT, I REPEAT. GATHER AT NORTHWEST 5 KM AWAY WITHIN 15 MINUTES."

I then showed Onoki's Tsuchikage hat to prove Iwa shinobi that this really is Onoki's direct order.

Soon massive waves of Iwa shinobi could be seen, heading towards Northwest. Seeing this Konoha, and Ame shinobi didn't know whether they should chase or not.

After roughly 20 minutes, I saw almost every survived Iwa shinobi has gathered to the location. I decided to start the next part of the plan. We didn't have the luxury to wait for all Iwa shinobi.

"Boss, do it now!" I requested Boss Eagle

"Alright!" answering me, Boss Eagle cried 3 times in a row. Signals were sent.

Immediately, I heard 100 Elite Jounins shouting at the same time.

"" Earth Style: Mobile Cote Jutsu!!! ""

Then the spacious wide ground area where survived Iwa shinobi force were standing started to move upward. It kept rising and rising until its elevation was around 100 meters tall.

'It seems those elite shinobi listened to me well. Now is time to clear out the few pests who managed to sneak into the area.'

Some of Konoha and Ame shinobi were chasing our Iwa shinobi and got into the mobile core area. Before, it was our Iwa shinobi force who got trapped like a rat. But now it was those of them who got trapped.

Well, I didn't have to say it as our Iwa shinobi already started hunting down those who got into the area.

I went back to Onoki to tell him the plan is successful and only need him now. Onoki, who was stalling Hanzo and Hiruzen at the same time, grinned widely after hearing my words.

"Listen well, Hiruzen. I may have lost this time, but next time I will definitely crush Konoha. Hanzo, I will remember this debt and return it a hundred folds!!!!"

After saying goodbye, Onoki flew away with me at dashing speed.

We arrived at the 100m elevated land where our Iwa shinobi was on top, while Konoha and Ame shinobi were at the below, staring up until their neck gets broken.

Onoki didn't hesitate and used his infamous Particle style: Atomic Dismantling Jutsu and cut off elevated land in half.

Then he used Earth Style: Light-Weight Rock jutsu to hold the top half of elevated land with his one hand.

[A/N: this is just like how Onoki carried that massive Turtle island during the fourth World War. He is now holding a large chunk of land where most of the Iwa shinobi were on it.]

'I really envy Onoki's ability to control the mass and weight. It is exceedingly useful and powerful, but not everyone can learn it. You need to born with a unique connection with Earth release to use. It is also not a bloodline ability.

This is why the second Tsuchikage or Onoki's kids couldn't fly. However, I haven't lost hope yet. Because I have a system!! It might reward me this ability as a reward in the future, hehehe.'

I was ordered to tail him behind in case of something unexpected.

Thus Iwagakure force has successfully escaped from the trap set by Konoha and Ame.
