"Can you finally not hold back any longer?"
Just then, a calm voice rang out amidst the clamor.
Senju Mori stood in front of the barrier, his hands rapidly forming seals, and a massive amount of Chakra surged with them.
"Water Release: Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave!"
Dozens of meters high, the giant wave did not appear out of thin air; instead, under the effect of the Ninjutsu, it burst forth from a nearby turbulent river, roaring as it broke free from its riverbed, like a primordial beast escaping the earth's shackles.
Using a natural river to cast the jutsu not only greatly conserves Chakra but also elevates the power of Water Release to an extremely terrifying degree.
The water's target was not just the Raikage at the very front, but rather it surged and roared outwards from Senju Mori as its center. Wherever the waves passed, rocks tumbled and trees toppled.

Except for the Konoha camp directly behind, which remained safe under the protection of the barrier, the surrounding area instantly transformed into a vast swamp.
Dozens of Cloud Hidden Ninjas, who were roaring and charging, were unable to react and were swallowed and swept away by the unstoppable raging torrent. Even their screams were drowned out by the rumbling sound of the surging waves.
Senju Mori did not stop his movements; his hands continued to form seals at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, and he shouted again:
"Wind Release: Vortex!"
In an instant, the airflow above the battlefield became violent and turbulent!
Countless visible azure air currents, as if pulled by an invisible hand, madly poured into this newly formed body of water.
The water surface, which had been calming, began to churn again, and it was no longer simple waves, but was forcefully pulled and stirred up by the high-speed rotation of the air currents!
Small vortices formed on the water's surface, sucking in floating debris and Ninja who had fallen into the water. These small vortices rapidly grew and merged under the mad infusion of more wind-attribute Chakra!
Finally, a colossal water spout, connecting the murky water with the dim sky, suddenly formed amidst countless horrified gazes!
"Compound Ninjutsu: Hurricane Turbulence Technique!"
It was no longer a Ninjutsu, but a natural disaster summoned!
The murky water formed its massive body, intermingled with shattered rocks, broken wood, and the desperate figures of Cloud Hidden Ninjas.
The violent wind pressure was its soul, emitting a heart-wrenching roar, madly tearing everything around it into the air, then mercilessly flinging it away or crushing it.
It was as if a hideous giant beast, artificially created, was rampaging under Senju Mori's guidance, slowly moving and crushing the densest areas of the Kumogakure forces... And after Third Raikage A had blasted away a small portion of them, the three Sealing Jutsu on those rock walls could no longer be maintained.
The rock walls, stripped of the Sealing Jutsu's reinforcement, were no different from ordinary mountain rock. They were quickly torn into massive fragments, which were then swept into the air by the hurricane.
Moments later, as the water spout gradually subsided, the surrounding terrain had completely undergone a drastic transformation.
The entire area where the three rock walls once stood had become an open battlefield covered with pools of water, shattered rocks, and countless dismembered limbs.
Senju Mori stood at the edge of this muddy battlefield, his robes flapping in the strong wind.
He calmly looked at the hellish scene before him, and at the dazzling lightning that charged towards him in a rage, then raised his hand and waved, his voice clearly echoing across the entire battlefield:
"Attack!"
Behind him, the giant transparent barrier dissipated as if on cue.
Within the Konoha camp, the main Konoha forces, who had been resting and recuperating for a long time, swiftly poured out like a breaching flood, launching a deadly counter-charge against the severely battered Kumogakure forces... The battle entered a white-hot stage from the very beginning.
Konoha Ninja madly streamed onto the battlefield from both sides, wielding their Ninja swords and Kunai, clashing with the grim-faced Cloud Hidden Ninja.
The golden lightning that Third Raikage A had transformed into completely ignored all the Konoha Ninja along the way, his target extremely clear, shooting directly towards Senju Mori, who was the only one standing still.
"You despicable brat! I'll crush you into pieces!"
At this moment, A felt an unprecedented surge of power.
What he condensed on his fingertips was not just dense Lightning Release Chakra, but also all the pent-up frustration that had accumulated since he entered the Land of Frost, right up to this moment!
The pain of losing countless comrades, the shock and anger of encountering malicious traps along the way, the vexation of ordering a forced assault on the camp... and at this very moment—the yearning for a thoroughly satisfying battle!
As countless images flashed through his mind, A's fingers curled one by one, finally leaving only his index finger extended straight, like a sharp knife, fiercely stabbing towards Senju Mori's heart.
"Hell Stab! One-Finger Nukite!"
A roared as he thrust out his right hand, and amidst the intense lightning flashes, there was no expected sensation of flesh.
"Whoosh—"
Senju Mori's figure shattered like a mirror, transforming into a pool of clear water.
"Ah ah ah—!"
A roared to the sky, seething with rage, the pent-up frustration that should have been released re-accumulating in his heart.
He spun around abruptly, his bloodshot eyes once again looking at the battlefield behind him, but instantly caught a sight that made his eyes split with fury.
Senju Mori's hateful figure reappeared, emerging from the ground beside a group of Cloud Hidden Ninja.
"Earth Release: Earth Split Jutsu."
He pressed a single hand to the ground, and the earth seemed to be torn apart by an invisible giant hand. A giant, dark abyss-like mouth suddenly opened, and nearly twenty Cloud Hidden Ninja fell straight down without even being able to cry out in alarm.
The crack then suddenly closed in the next instant, completely burying all fear, struggle, and traces of life, leaving only an inconspicuous fissure, proving what had happened there.
"Bastard!"
A roared loudly, transforming into lightning and rushing forward, but Senju Mori had already sunk back into the ground, disappearing without a trace.
Soon, tragedy unfolded elsewhere.
Senju Mori quietly appeared from an inconspicuous puddle. Around him, more than ten Cloud Hidden Ninja were wading in the water, engaged in close combat with a group of Konoha Ninja, fiercely entangled.
"Water Release: Torrent."
Senju Mori's fingers moved slightly, quickly forming two unique hand seals.
In the previously harmless puddle, which only reached their shins, countless fine and sharp water blades instantly formed, like countless invisible razors, precisely sweeping past the Cloud Hidden Ninja's shins and ankles.
"Ugh ah ah ah—!"
The jarring sound of bones cracking and screams rang out simultaneously. The Cloud Hidden Ninja instantly lost their balance, painfully falling into the bloody pool of water, and were easily finished off by the Konoha Ninja beside them.
"Do you only know how to hide like a rat?! Hokage!"
A roared loudly, but he no longer blindly charged towards Senju Mori. He surveyed the battlefield, taking in several gathering points of Cloud Hidden Ninja.
He would predict the path Senju Mori might choose! And increase the speed of his next attack to the maximum!
