[Upgrading the Ultimate Kill skill to level 5 requires 100,000 Prestige]

He received three system rewards and upgraded his ultimate skill to level 4.

Even a Jonin could be absolutely killed!

Upon seeing the ssage of the decisive victory, Souji couldn't help but feel extrely excited.

The ratio of Chunin to Jonin is one in a hundred. In any ninja village, Jonin are absolutely high-ranking figures.

Even the succession of the Kage requires a vote of confidence from all the Jonin.

Becoming a Jonin requires extrely high standards in all aspects and specialized skills.

Even Kage-level powerhouses cannot guarantee that they can kill a Jonin unless they go all out.

A level 4 finishing move can absolutely kill a Jonin without any cost or damage; all that's needed is to throw a kunai.

In terms of killing a Jonin alone, he could be said to be stronger than even a Kage-level powerhouse!

However, the next upgrade will reach 100,000 reputation points, and the requirents will be increasingly higher, making it really difficult to achieve.

In the midst of the great battle, the Souji simply glanced at the information and didn't think much of it before turning his gaze back to the main battlefield.

In the ti it takes to resolve a battle, the situation has already changed drastically.

Manda dragged the Red Sand out of the main battlefield, and the outco was already decided.

The Red Sand is far smaller and weaker than Manda.

When it tried to assassinate Orochimaru last ti, it was already severely injured by Manda's bite.

This ti, before its injuries had even healed, it was summoned again while still wounded and was once again brutally beaten.

In the end, it was Pakura who dispelled the summoning jutsu at the critical mont, allowing the Red Sand to leave in ti; otherwise, even the rat's life would have been lost there.

The Red Sand retreated, and the Manda also left.

On the main battlefield side.

Under the moonlight, the massive Shukaku, as huge as a mountain, was erupting wildly, with countless grains of sand spreading like waves, sweeping towards Orochimaru and the group of Konoha's elite warriors!

The current situation is not optimistic.

Although Orochimaru dealt a heavy blow to Sunagakure as soon as he made his move, and the special forces mbers imdiately appeared, seemingly creating an invincible montum, things did not go smoothly after the battle actually began.

During the Second Shinobi World War, Konoha's opponents were Sunagakure and Agakure.

At that ti, the strong forces of Konoha split into two groups: the Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi faced off against Sunagakure, while the Sannin faced off against Agakure.

Therefore, Orochimaru has never actually fought against a tailed beast.

At first, I thought the Tailed Beasts were just special summoning beasts that were even more powerful than Manda.

But now... Shukaku's power far exceeds Orochimaru's expectations!

The current Shukaku Jinchuriki, Bunpuku, is a perfect Jinchuriki, capable of fully manifesting the true form of a Tailed Beast and utilizing all its power.

Although the tailed beasts are enormous, they are not the stupid, slow-witted, and mindless monsters that Ultraman possesses.

Inuzuka Tsu and the two Jonin, who were tasked with containing Shukaku, were unable to mount any effective restraint.

Faced with Bunpuku's all-out attack and his desire for a quick victory, the three of them were quickly struck by Shukaku's explosive attack and lay on the ground, their fates unknown.

Another Jonin from the special forces and that special Jonin from the Hyuga clan were directly crushed and blown apart by Shukaku's Sand Burial, dying a very tragic death.

Fugaku Uchiha attempted to control Shukaku with his Sharingan, but at that ti Fugaku only had a regular three-tomoe Sharingan, not the Mangekyou Sharingan, and his power was insufficient to control the tailed beast; he could only barely influence it.

As a result, Fugaku Uchiha, who was originally supposed to be the third strongest fighter in the special forces after Orochimaru and Shinnosuke, took on the task of restraining Shukaku.

However, using the Sharingan consus a lot of chakra, let alone controlling a tailed beast, which consus even more chakra.

It is estimated that Fugaku Uchiha will not be able to last long.

anwhile, Jinchuriki Bunpuku was also unable to maintain his strength for long, so he didn't even have ti to finish off Inuzuka Tsu and the others, and just kept focusing on Orochimaru and relentlessly attacking him.

Orochimaru is the strongest mber of Konoha.

If we can defeat Orochimaru, then at least we can achieve a mutually destructive outco with Konoha this ti.

Orochimaru has always focused on survival skills, so even tailed beasts are not so easy to deal with him.

Several tis, even if they hit him, various techniques were used to substitute for his injuries.

However, his two arms were also crushed into a bloody ss by the sand controlled by Shukaku.

Pakura led several Sand Village Jonin to launch an attack.

Originally, there was a big difference in strength between Pakura and Orochimaru, but facing the combined attack of Shukaku, even soone as strong as Orochimaru had a very difficult ti fighting.

Faced with such a high-level situation, although Sunagakure had the advantage in numbers, ordinary ninjas were simply unable to go and provide support.

Even so support-type special jonin with weak individual combat power could not do so. If they accidentally grazed the AOE of the various powerful individuals, they would lose their lives on the spot.

At the very least, only special Jonin skilled in combat would be able to go and provide support.

However, Konoha's strongn had already taken advantage of the chaos to break through Sunagakure's defenses and intercept these people.

Thus, despite having a larger number of Sunagakure residents, they did not gain any advantage whatsoever.

Originally responsible for intercepting ordinary Sand Village ninjas, Souji had nothing to do after throwing two 10-hit combos.

He could only turn his attention to the main battlefield, where yellow sand filled the sky and powerful ninjutsu crisscrossed, resembling a chaotic battle of monsters.

The main target is... the tailed beast Shukaku!

"Shukaku at its full power is too strong. Orochimaru's ninjutsu doesn't seem to be fully developed yet, so he might really be in trouble... But it would be too dangerous for to go in!"

Looking at the sand that was chasing Orochimaru like waves, Souji hesitated.

Although his kunai can directly attack the Jinchūriki, if Shukaku were to hit him with a handful of sand at the end, would he be able to escape unscathed?

...

Large swathes of sand surrounded Orochimaru from all sides, like a giant hand that squeezed him tightly!

Fresh blood seeped from the sand.

However, the next mont, Orochimaru appeared from another place, swaying unsteadily.

The sand scattered, revealing a bloodied and mangled python inside.

Orochimaru once again used the Snake Substitution Technique to take the damage for himself, but ninjutsu has its limits, and the attacks of the tailed beasts are not so easy to neutralize.

At this mont, Orochimaru slowly exhaled, his face grim, no longer possessing the composure he had when he first summoned Manda to severely injure Sunagakure.

"I miscalculated. The tailed beasts are incredibly powerful. But... It's pretty much over!"
