Tear it-!

The deep red and black sword aura appeared to transform into a roaring wild beast in the midst of the battle. As the attack hit the sand, it tore through it like a predator taking down its prey.

For about two seconds, a tense standoff ensued. A massive gap was ripped in the center of the quicksand waterfall, causing the sand on both sides to collapse instantly.

A big gully, several meters wide and stretching hundreds of meters, lay in front of Tastsuya's attack. And in that moment of sand being cut open, an old man dressed as a monk had a drastic change in expression.

He never expected his quicksand waterfall to be broken from such a distance.

Though he lacked a telescope, his keen perception detected the enormous Chakra presence characteristic of a Jinchuriki. Tatsuya silently pondered, "Could that be Gaara's predecessor, the One Tail Jinchuriki, is he a perfect Jinchukri?"

Snapped!

In an instant, the hands of the old man tightly closed again.

A miniature Shukaku, just over three meters tall, extended his arms in front of him, assuming the strongest absolute defense, the Shield of Shukaku.

Puff!

The sword energy that had pierced through the quicksand waterfall this time collided with the formidable Shield of the Shukaku.

The attack appeared somewhat feeble and was finally resisted after penetrating only about halfway into the shield.

"Although it's not a perfect Jinchuriki, it seems to have Shukaku's approval. Does this mean he has control over sand comparable to Gaara?" Tatsuya remarked with a chuckle, raising the knife.

The Armament Haki on the blade gradually faded, returning to its normal color.

Orochimaru, who had witnessed the entire sequence of events, was taken aback by what he saw.

What was that?

Was it a secret technique of the Hatake clan?

Or perhaps... a bloodline boundary?

Such a technique was unheard of!

Even Orochimaru's Kage-level expertise was shaken, let alone the lesser shinobi present who didn't even deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as true Kage.

"Hey, what was that attack just now... that slash?"

"How does it compare to White Fang? No, it might even surpass White Fang?"

"If we're talking about long-range attack abilities, I think... it might be even stronger than White Fang's!"

"Isn't he the eternal Genin?"

"That knife... did it turn black just now? A black knife from Konoha?"

"Konoha's Black Knife?"

...

...

Shocked and frantic voices filled the ranks of Konoha's army.

Even the most composed individuals found it challenging to remain calm.

Yamanaka Inoichi gulped, "The distance was immense, and yet, not only did he break through the Banpaku's quicksand waterfall, but he also forced Jinchruki to resort to using the Shield of the Shukaku?"

"Black... Black Knife and White Fang?"

Fear flashed across Akamichi Choza's face as he watched the two brothers, Hatake Sakumo and Hatake Tatsuya, in awe.

Nara Shikaku, the leader of the three and the wisest among them, spoke with a solemn tone, "Both brothers are Kage-level prodigies, White Fang and Black Knife? The rumors we heard when we were young are true."

As Shikaku's words sank in, everyone present was drawn into memories of the past.

Remember, that was when they had not yet entered the ninja school. They had heard about the two geniuses of the Hatake family.

However, for years, Tatsuya has remained out of the public eye, and somehow, he has been crowned with the title of "the eternal genin."

Who came up with that name? Are they blind? Clearly, he is an extraordinary monster!

As the sand sea on the opposite side collapsed completely, the hidden army of Sand Shinobi was exposed to the Konoha Shinobi army.

"The slash just now... was it Konoha's White Fang?" an old woman with white hair among the Sand Shinobi army exclaimed with a sharp voice.

In the next moment, her short arms waved, and thin Chakra threads emerged from her ten fingers, each connected to a white puppet. These ten puppets were said to be capable of wiping out an entire village near Song!

"White Fang! I'll take your life!" the woman, Chiyo, roared and rushed forward aggressively.

"Calm down, sister; the attack just now might not have been executed by White Fang!" Ebizo, standing behind her, tried to reason that the sword aura he felt earlier was different from White Fang's. It appeared to belong to another master swordsman, and they had to be cautious.

However, the mere mention of Konoha's White Fang was enough to enrage Chiyo and disrupt her composure. She continued to rush recklessly toward her opponent.

Seeing her actions, Ebizo had no choice but to give a hand signal, commanding the Sand Shinobi army at the rear to charge immediately.

Following behind Chiyo were a few individuals with fewer wrinkles but no less determination.

Tatsuya chuckled and remarked, "Hahaha, brother, vengeful women are terrifying, especially the old ones. I'll leave this opponent to you."

Hatake Sakumo, the Elder of the two brothers, gave a wry smile and suddenly changed his aura.

In an instant, he turned into a white flash and appeared right in front of Chiyo.

"Hatake Stream, Lightning Flash!"

"Konoha's White Fang!"

The man responsible for the death of her son and daughter-in-law stood before Chiyo. Her eyes turned bloodshot, and her only desire was to take his life.

As the two main players, Hatake Sakumo and Chiyo, confronted each other, the thousands of troops at the rear clashed.

In an instant, the scent of blood permeated the entire battlefield.

"Everyone, give it your all," Tatsuya calmly said while remaining on top of the high rock, observing the battlefield below.

Although it appeared to be a battlefield of carnage, to him, it seemed like a peculiar spectacle.

However, if one observes closely, one would notice that Tatsuya's gaze occasionally shifts towards the position of the Sarutobi clan, seemingly deliberate yet unintentional.
