"Swoosh!" "Swoosh!" "Swoosh!" 

Countless stones rained down from the sky like an impenetrable net, hurtling toward the three individuals below!

"Ha!" 

With a loud shout, Ay covered himself in a terrifying Lightning Release Armor. Ignoring the barrage of stones, he plummeted straight downward. 

Bee, on the other hand, gripped his sharp ninja blade tightly. His face was tense as he moved swiftly, slicing through the air. 

"Slash!" "Slash!" "Slash!" 

Numerous stones hurtling toward him were instantly reduced to tiny fragments, falling harmlessly to the ground with his figure. 

Nearby, Darui floated mid-air. His casual expression turned serious as he quickly formed hand seals. 

"Lightning Release: Curse of Darkness!" 

As his voice fell, countless streaks of lightning in the shape of serpents surged out, shooting toward the incoming rocks. 

Before the stones and spears could even touch him, they were pulverized by the dark lightning, scattering to the ground alongside his descent. 

Seeing this scene from below, the Iwa-nin's faces turned grim. 

The intruders... were formidable! 

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" 

The three landed with a crash, sending dust flying everywhere. Ay's sturdy, lightning-clad body was the first to leap out from the cloud of smoke. 

In an instant, he appeared amidst the group of Iwa-nin. 

What!? 

The Iwa-nin's pupils shrank in disbelief as Ay suddenly materialized in front of them! 

"Ha! Heavy Flow Strike!" 

With a furious expression and flashing lightning, Ay delivered a devastating punch with his right fist, encased in a massive metal arm guard, arcs of electricity dancing wildly around it. 

Before the Iwa-nin could react, the one in front took the brunt of the blow and was flung backward into his comrades. 

"Boom!" 

Like a cannonball, four Iwa-nin were sent flying by Ay's punch, smashing through countless trees before coming to a halt. 

Ay stood still, his Lightning Release Armor dissipating. He cast a sidelong glance at Darui and Bee and let out a low grunt. 

With just one punch, four Iwa-nin were utterly lifeless. 

Their corpses were mangled, bones shattered into countless pieces, bodies charred black, and grotesquely twisted. 

Seeing this, Darui let out a wry smile and approached the Konoha ninja, drawing his own blade. 

Bee, wearing sunglasses, quietly observed the scene, muttering to himself. 

"It's fine, the match isn't over yet. As long as I take down enough enemies later, Big Brother definitely won't scold me!" 

Hearing his mumbling, Darui's face darkened. He glanced at Bee in exasperation. 

Bee, are you really that afraid of Ay? 

The Konoha ninja stood frozen, unable to believe his eyes. 

The enemies who had been relentlessly chasing him... had been dealt with so easily!? 

"Plop!" "Plop!" 

At this moment, Darui approached him with a faint smile and spoke softly. 

"Konoha ninja, are your injuries severe?" 

Hearing his voice, the Konoha ninja snapped out of his daze and quickly responded. 

"N-no, I can still hold on." 

However, his body swayed slightly, nearly collapsing. Still, he forced himself to remain standing, struggling to lift his head to look at Darui. 

When he noticed the forehead protectors on their heads, his expression froze, and he gasped in surprise. 

"Y-you're from... Kumogakure!?" 

Seeing him struggling to stay upright, Darui's eyes flashed with admiration as he replied softly. 

"You're right. We're ninja from Kumogakure." 

Noticing the confusion on the Konoha ninja's face, Darui explained. 

"Kumogakure signed an alliance treaty with Konoha. When we received information about Iwa-nin and Suna-nin attacking Konoha, the Raikage sent us here immediately." 

As he spoke, Darui pointed to the sky, where numerous white birds were flying in from the horizon. 

"All of those are Kumogakure ninja sent to assist Konoha." 

Hearing this, the Konoha ninja glanced at the flock of white birds in the sky, his face lighting up with joy as he exclaimed. 

"That's wonderful! With this, the village won't have to endure such heavy pressure anymore!" 

"I'm Suzuki. If possible, I can take you to meet the advisors." 

Darui nodded, shook hands with Suzuki, and introduced himself. 

"Nice to meet you, Suzuki. I'm Darui." 

He then gestured toward Ay and Bee, introducing them as well. 

"This is the Raikage's son, Ay, and his brother, Killer Bee." 

Ay and Bee approached from a distance and nodded slightly at Suzuki. 

Seeing Ay, Suzuki's mouth opened slightly in astonishment. 

The Raikage even sent his own son!? 

Darui and Ay exchanged opinions. After hearing Suzuki's thoughts, Ay pondered briefly before replying in a deep voice. 

"If the situation isn't too urgent, Suzuki, lead us to meet Konoha's advisors as you suggested." 

Suzuki nodded in agreement. 

At that moment, Darui looked into the distance, let out a loud whistle, and called out. 

"Caw—!" 

Soon after, a large white bird flew straight toward them, its wings kicking up a cloud of dust as it landed. 

"Let's go. Using this, we can reach Konoha faster," Darui said to the group. 

Though Suzuki was curious, he said nothing and followed the others onto the white bird's back. 

"Flap!" "Flap!" 

With a few strong wing beats, the white bird soared into the sky, and the group disappeared from sight.

Meanwhile. 

In a remote valley far from Konoha. 

The dense forest surrounding the valley created a natural barrier. Moss-covered rocks and a clear stream lent the place a serene and profound atmosphere. 

"Step." "Step." "Step." 

Amid the tranquil surroundings, a series of rhythmic footsteps broke the silence. 

Looking toward the source, two tall figures walked slowly along a narrow path in the valley. 

It was Aizen and White Zetsu, who had left the Konoha battlefield. 

Aizen's deep gaze scanned the environment before glancing at White Zetsu and speaking softly. 

"Set him down, Zetsu." 

At Aizen's command, White Zetsu opened his large, pitcher plant-like structure, revealing the unconscious monk—Rōshi, the Four-Tails Jinchūriki. 

After placing him on the ground, White Zetsu's amber eyes showed some confusion as he looked at Aizen and asked quietly, 

"Aizen-sama, are you planning to use the Tailed Beasts' power to awaken the Ten-Tails, like Madara?"
