Third Person POV
Land of Rain, Year 38.
...
...
The Konoha groups continued running through the forest as they tried to shake off the Stone ninjas. Heading towards the border in the Fire country as they attempted to kill Minato.
They quickly moved over the trees, Minato saw this and began to act. "I have a good stock of paper bombs, so stay alert while I set them up." He said as he began placing numerous paper bombs in the trees they passed, putting some on kunais that fell directly to the ground.
He did this for 200 meters, placing all kinds of paper bombs in spots not visible to the pursuers, while kunais began to advance against them.
"They are catching up to us!" exclaimed an Anbu ninja from the Konoha group.
"Minato??" Jiraiya spoke to his student.
"Not yet... I need as many of them as possible to enter the paper bomb field..." Minato said, sensing only a few ninjas in that space.
They continued this for another 2 minutes until Minato finally felt it was the ideal moment and placed an activated paper bomb, which caught flames, with the Stone ninjas passing right by it.
"Wait! That's a paper bomb!!!!" He immediately shouted as he smelled burning and looked back, but it was already too late.
As soon as that paper bomb exploded, another caught in a nearby tree also exploded, causing others to activate as well, creating a series of chain explosions, while dozens of ninjas could not react.

An entire line where Minato had passed exploded soon after as trees and earth were devastated under the dark sky of this country with bird women flying at this moment away from the explosions throughout the forest.
"You caught them right there." Jiraiya had to admit it was a good tactic.
"Yes... but most of them managed to resist..." Minato murmured, feeling with his Haki. "Be careful... they're going to perform a large-scale jutsu!" He exclaimed as everything began to tremble.
The next moment, a straight line advanced towards them as the entire ground shattered with the earth cracking like an earthquake, some ninjas were caught while trying to move away with stones flying and trees falling.
"Stay in formation and prepare for battle!!" An Anbu immediately exclaimed, and all the ninjas went into combat mode as some of them went to rescue their injured comrades.
Over 100 Stone ninjas appeared at this moment as they ran towards the Konoha ninjas. Minato saw this and decided to give everyone more time while advancing, creating a Rasenshuriken that quickly glowed as he launched it directly at the ninjas with his chakra already quite recovered, while the jutsu moved at high speed.
"This Jutsu is powerful, prepare a barrier!!" The Stone ninjas exclaimed as they quickly created a huge wall of stones rising from the ground and standing between them and Minato's jutsu, which hit the rocks before exploding.
The jutsu quickly consumed all the rock in front of it and caught the first jutsus as the huge explosion continued spreading.
"Let's go now! This is our chance!" Minato exclaimed as everyone came out of their daze seeing that giant energy dome consuming everything, there was no reason for Minato to hide this jutsu from everyone, after all, he had already used it in the south and in the fight against the Sand ninjas in the first camp and against the Jinchuriki.
This gave him a great advantage as the Stone ninjas were now cautious, with several high-ranking ninjas who had created the barrier, simply disappearing caught by the explosion, they even tried to catch up to the Konoha ninjas, but in the end lost with them finally reaching the northern camp advanced post as they entered the border.
"We lost them..." said a frustrated ninja.
"We didn't catch any of their ninjas... but they killed at least 50 of us! How is that possible!!" Another ninja exclaimed indignantly about the situation the group found themselves in.
"Let's go back to the Stone country... before the ninjas from Ame show up or even Konoha with reinforcements." The ninja spoke in the end as they turned around and headed north.
"It seems we have finally arrived," an Anbu said as the Konoha ninjas were welcomed by several ninjas at the advanced camp.
"You're alright..." Jiraiya approached Minato.
"Yes..." Minato commented.
"Your last jutsu was quite surprising..." Jiraiya couldn't help but comment upon seeing the Rasenshuriken for the first time, while Minato simply nodded.
'The boy has evolved the jutsu he created, the Rasengan, with nature chakra, which is already very difficult, turning the jutsu into a high-scale explosion, but he also learned to mold chakra into a control that this boy can simply throw. Where did he learn to control his chakra in such a refined way?' Jiraiya couldn't help but murmur internally looking at his student.
A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
"Anyway..." He resumed speaking. "Let's return to the camp, after all, we need to talk." He had a harsher tone now, and Minato followed him.
In the north, things were not good for the Stone ninjas; what they thought was a good play ended up being a very bad consequence, having a ninja full of S-rank jutsus, paper bombs being able to move from one place to another attacking them out of pure vengeance, leading to the ruin of two camps closest to the Land of Fire.
"How is the situation?" Kitsuchi, the Tsuchikage's own son, appeared to learn the reports of the camp devastated with paper bombs as the day began to dawn on the horizon.
"Are you saying he entered the camp, placed hundreds of paper bombs and disappeared activating all of them, and no one noticed?!" He asked angrily to the ninjas.
"No, my lord... you know his teleportation jutsu is instantaneous... we can do nothing against him when he simply wants to disappear..." The reporting ninja informed.
"You are right..." Kitsuchi had to admit, after all, with so much pressure wanting to find a culprit, but he sighed before continuing. "He killed 120 ninjas in that attack... counting the more than 450 he killed in the first camp... we ended up having the fury of a small monster born in Konoha..." He admitted, no one would believe that a 12-year-old child killed almost 600 ninjas in two nights.
"How is Roshi?" He asked.
"He is fine... but seems shaken." The ninja spoke.
"Let me see him." He spoke and followed to the tent where the young Jinchuuriki was, after all, it was Kitsuchi who summoned him to hunt Minato in the Land of Rain if the boy were there, and even there, the boy managed to attack the camp before he got into conflict with the Jinchuuriki.
"Can you talk?" Kitsuchi approached Roshi, who was sitting drinking a hot beverage.
"Yes." The Jinchuuriki didn't even look at him.
"Can you tell me what happened and how a boy fought against you, leaving you in a quite critical state?" Kitsuchi asked curiously.
"That boy is a monster, I've never been close to death until I met him, even my four tails' chakra layer was useless..." He said calmly.
"How did he do that, can you tell what his abilities are? What happened to your squad?" He insisted on knowing, after all, he needed to deliver a report to his father.
"You already know he can teleport, right? He appeared with one of those strange Kunais and threw an energy ball at us, I was the only one who survived with my chakra layer, no one even had time to react, tried to catch him, but he managed to jump in mid-air as if it were solid, I've never seen anything like it." He murmured.
"Stepping in mid-air? Is that how he manages to enter camps and throw those Kunais...?" Kitsuchi murmured before asking Roshi. "Can he fly?"
"No... I don't think so, he used his feet to jump in the air. And before you ask another thing, the boy can use 3 different elements, he managed to pierce my chakra layer with a penetrating lightning jutsu, I almost died in that moment, there was a moment when he launched that destruction jutsu and as soon as it ended, I swear I saw him move at high speed, so much that I couldn't react, then Hanzo, the Salamander, appeared and saved me." He spoke.
"So the boy has 2 S-rank jutsus and various strange tricks..." Kitsuchi concluded, thinking what else this boy could be hiding, after all it seemed deeper than it appeared.
"3." Roshi said.
"Hm?" Kitsuchi looked confused.
"He has 3 S-rank jutsus, you should have seen the giant lightning dragon he threw at Hanzo, as big as that wind element jutsu that killed all my guards," he said, leaving Kitsuchi even more thoughtful.
"Alright... I'll inform my father," he said as he left the tent and was informed that the ninjas who were pursuing the target had failed and lost a dozen of them, which made him even more frustrated, but he had no choice but to put that in the report.
"I want you to deliver this to Tsuchikage-Sama urgently in the village." After writing everything he heard about the losses and the current threat that they had until now only underestimated, Kitsuchi wrote the letter to his father.
"What do you think will happen?" a ninja next to Kitsuchi asked as he watched the messenger ninja enter the Land of Stone.
"I don't know... But my father will not stay quiet while there is a ninja in Konoha who can kill 632 ninjas and leave a traumatized Jinchuuriki alive in this war... He will surely act," Kitsuchi said in the end.
Meanwhile, in Ame, in the giant buildings made with water circulation pipes, Hanzo was thinking as he looked at the rain falling. "I was counting on a victory over Konoha in this war... but it seems that Konoha will be the victor if things continue this way," Hanzo murmured.
In the Land of Waterfalls... in an underground cave, with an old man sitting in front of a giant and strange flower, both Zetsus appeared at this moment as they began to report everything they saw that happened in the Land of Rain between Minato and Hanzo.
"..." The old man listened in silence as one Zetsu spoke in a dark tone and the other had a more cheerful voice, even making jokes.
"So the name of this boy is Minato Namikaze...?" The old man opened one of his eyes, while his Sharingan glowed in that darkness.
"Yes... He is very powerful for his age... must be at a Kage level," the Black Zetsu spoke in his dark tone.
"I remember the Namikaze clan... they were destroyed in the first ninja war... They were not very important... so I am surprised that one of them survived and has this level joining Konoha," the old man spoke calmly.
"What shall we do, the war does not seem to be ending any time soon...?" the White Zetsu asked cheerfully.
"As long as the cycle of hatred continues, the fight will never end... That's why I, Uchiha Madara, will start my plans," he announced, "I will give you instructions now on how we will begin to act, the son of the woman we kidnapped from the Uzumaki clan must be ready to start feeling the pain of this world created by Hashirama." He spoke as the Zetsus waited, but Madara could not help but look up with his Sharingan.
'Do you see, Hashirama? This is the world you sought? Full of war! You failed... but I will succeed, I will execute the Infinite Tsukuyomi!' He declared internally.
