I saw the great ape jumping out of the quicksand with Sarutobi Shinnosuke on his back.

Ape demon.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's trump card: Summoning Contract. Even his students have one.

Though it later became a goofy summon in the hands of Konohamaru, in its early stages, it had its shining moments, resisting the Nine-Tails and assisting Sarutobi Hiruzen against the reanimation of Hashirama and Tobirama. Did you use the summoning technique before completely incapacitating yourself?

"Tsk, So troublesome."

Tatsuya couldn't help but spread his hands a little.

"Rie! Rie! Saruma! Save Rie!"

However, Sarutobi Shinnosuke didn't hear Tatsuya's mockery at all.

After getting out of danger, he immediately jumped from Saruma's back and kneeled down at the location where Sarutobi Rie had been buried, frantically digging in the sand below.

"No, there is no breath below."

The monkey demon felt the life force for a moment and shook his head.

Even without perception, he could guess from the pressure felt when he rushed out with Sarutobi Shinnosuke that there was no way someone like Sarutobi Rie, who was not even an elite Chūnin, could have survived.

"No, no, no! I wouldn't believe it if I didn't see Rie's body!"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke roared in pain.

"Sand Bullets!"

Feeling the torrential rain falling from the sky.

Saruma's expression changed suddenly, and he hugged Sarutobi Shinnosuke, who was crying bitterly and quickly dodged.

Tatsuya also leaped in the air, then gracefully jumped twice in the air, standing nearly ten meters above the ground.

"Standing in the sky!?"

The Ape demon and the many ninjas around looked at Tatsuya, who was slashing above the sky, in amazement.

Is it the same technique as Iwagakure's Ōnoki?

Of course not; this is another skill Tatsuya has gained from the system.

"Shunpo" in the Shinigami world evolved from the Hokage World's Body Flicker Technique. Though both are bursts of power from the soles of the feet, Shunpo has another advantage.

That it is a genuine floating in the air. However, Tatsuya's Shunpo is not perfect. After all, according to the Shinigami world's worldview, the high-level stuff of Yamamoto Genryusai and Aizen Sosuke require hundreds and thousands of years of Training time.

Kurosaki Ichigo who has been a Shinigami for two years, surpasses these old monsters, but that's outrageous. Especially the old Monsters of Bleach they fight death battles to get stronger but Ichigo is different. But it's expected after all his entire life was planned so he could be the next soul king.

"The speed and power are significantly improved compared to before."

Tatsuya didn't have time to be shocked by others and looked down at the Banpaku who had an arm detached. On the left shoulder of the missing arm, a thick arm resembling a beast claw and a strange violet pattern appeared.

That is Shukaku's hand!

And the left half of the body that Banpaku gradually moved closer to Shukaku. Between the sharp teeth, saliva dripped uncontrollably.

It's a partial-tailed beast transformation!

"Not good! Shukaku is trying to break the seal inside Bunpuku!"

Ebizo, the think tank of Sand Shinobi, saw the state of the Banpaku, his face changed drastically, and he shouted:

"Seal team! Stop the sharing of chakra between Banpaku and Shukaku! If you continue, once Shukaku comes out, he will launch an attack regardless of the enemy or us!"

Although Jinchruiki is sent to the battlefield as military weapons, the situation could become chaotic if the Tailed Beast fully takes over.

In order to prevent a potential rampage from Bunpuku, the senior management of the Sand Shinobi had prepared a sealing team in case of emergencies. Being prepared for such situations was common not only in the Sand Village but also in other villages like Rock and Mist.

"The opponent is in chaos due to the loss of control of the tailed beast," Orochimaru said, having previously been engaged in battle with a young Sand Shinobi who could control sand with Magnet Style. He then suggested, "Now is the perfect time to launch a decisive attack."

However, Tatsuya poured cold water on Orochimaru's enthusiasm by cautioning, "No, we can't do that."

To Orochimaru's surprise, Tatsuya continued with a different perspective, "If Shukaku comes out, he will launch an attack regardless of whether they are enemies or allies. It would cause too much damage to Konoha."

Orochimaru found it hard to believe that Tatsuya would care about Konoha's losses. He suspected that Tatsuya had his own ulterior motives regarding Sarutobi Shinnosuke and other Sarutobi clan members.

Indeed, Tatsuya had a plan in mind. By involving Bunpuku in the conflict and attracting other Konoha Shinobi to their location, he had hoped to use large-scale attack ninjutsu to eliminate Sarutobi Shinnosuke and his team.

However, Sarutobi Shinnosuke's summoning of the Ape Demon changed the situation, making it impractical to attack the Konoha team directly. After all, the probability of the ape demon escaping is too high.

While Tatsuya found the fight with Bunpuku interesting, he had no desire to take on the entire Sand Shinobi force. But he also saw some benefits in the situation. With Sarutobi Rie dead, he knew that Konohamaru would not be born this time, referring to the inconsistency in the manga where Konohamaru's birth was skipped.

Deciding to retreat, Tatsuya signaled to his brother, Hatake Sakumo, who also sheathed his katana and ordered their team to evacuate. Orochimaru, who had grown more interested in mastering ninjutsu, didn't oppose Tatsuya's decision and ordered his team to follow suit.
