Tsunade stood atop Katsuyu's head, smiling, "The reunion of the Three Great Summons is quite rare."
Katsuyu noticed Yoruha standing on Manda's head and was somewhat surprised, "It's that child!" In the previous battle, Katsuyu had witnessed Yoruha's strength firsthand and was deeply impressed by him.
Tsunade chuckled, "Surprising, isn't it? He's signed a summoning contract with Ryūchi Cave." Katsuyu trembled in shock, "Really?"
Katsuyu was well aware of Yoruha's power, which was said to surpass even the Legendary Sannin. He could easily defeat Orochimaru and had even tamed the Three-Tails as his summoning beast.
The fact that Yoruha had signed a contract with Ryūchi Cave made Katsuyu a bit fearful. "Could this mean the balance of power among the Three Great Sacred Grounds is now disrupted?"
Katsuyu muttered to itself, and Tsunade reassured, "Don't worry so much. That child is my protector now and won't interfere with the affairs of the Three Great Sacred Grounds." Only then did Katsuyu relax a little. Meanwhile, Gamabunta had never encountered Yoruha before.
Looking at Yoruha standing on Manda's head, Gamabunta sensed his immense power. Since it used Sage Chakra, it was highly sensitive to energy. "Jiraiya, is that kid Manda's summoner?"
Jiraiya nodded, "Yes, he's very powerful, isn't he? You can feel it too?" Gamabunta's gaze was serious as he looked at Yoruha,
"Indeed, he's very strong. If it came to a fight, I'm afraid even you might not be able to handle him." Jiraiya chuckled, "You're overestimating me. I'm definitely not his match."
Gamabunta became even more cautious, "Have you fought him before? If his summoning beast is Manda, that's quite troublesome, that guy Manda." Jiraiya realized Gamabunta had misunderstood something.
He quickly explained, "You don't need to be so tense. He's on our side, and didn't you notice Kakashi standing next to him?" Only then did Gamabunta notice Kakashi's presence. There were so many powerful ninjas here that it had overlooked Kakashi.
"Is that the Fourth's disciple, the silver-haired kid?" Jiraiya said, "Yes, Kakashi is that child's teacher." Gamabunta finally relaxed.
Despite its earlier calm demeanor, it was actually quite nervous inside.
After all, Manda's strength was definitely above its own, and even teaming up with Katsuyu, they could only barely match Manda.
If Yoruha's strength surpassed Jiraiya's, combined with Manda, they would stand no chance.
Kakashi watched the scene and remarked, "If an ordinary person saw this, they'd probably be scared to death."
After all, there were four summon beasts with Kage-level strength, two Kage-level ninjas, and one who surpassed Kage-level. Gathering such power in one village was truly terrifying.
At this moment, Konoha had finally returned to the strength of the Fourth Hokage's era.
Moreover, if Sasuke summoned Aoda and entered Sage Mode, he could also join the ranks of Kage-level ninjas. Thus, Konoha would have three Kage-level and one super Kage-level powerhouse.
Currently, Konoha was only slightly inferior to the era of the First Hokage. In fact, just Yoruha alone was enough to overshadow most of the current Kage-level ninjas in the ninja world.
The shadows posed no threat to him. Of course, the reason Yoruha was wary of Nagato was that he feared Nagato might have some unexpected tricks not seen in the original story, worried about an unforeseen defeat.
He was cautious of Uchiha Itachi because he wasn't sure if his own mental strength could withstand Itachi's Izanami.
At this point, Itachi's Tsukuyomi was no longer a threat to Yoruha. With the development of the Space Sphere, all visual genjutsu posed no threat to him. However, Izanami didn't rely on sight; it only required sacrificing a Sharingan to be activated.
This meant that the Uchiha had two opportunities to use Izanami, and if Yoruha fell for it even once, he would be doomed. On the other hand, the Infinite Tsukuyomi posed no threat to Yoruha.
Even the Infinite Tsukuyomi was a visual genjutsu, requiring the moon to cast it over the entire ninja world.
During the Fourth Great Ninja War, Sasuke was able to avoid the Infinite Tsukuyomi by using Susanoo to block its light. Yoruha had plenty of such methods.
The quickest and most efficient was to use the Space Sphere to absorb the light of the Infinite Tsukuyomi.
At this moment, in the training ground, the top forces of Konoha Village were gathered.
Apart from Guy, the few people here had already brought Konoha back to its peak, only rivaled by the era of the First Hokage.
However, the village's overall strength was still weak due to the significant casualties among mid and low-level ninjas from Orochimaru's attack.
Recovery would take several years. But with Yoruha, Jiraiya, and Tsunade present, Konoha was now more than capable of defending itself.
There was no need to worry about attacks from other ninja villages.
After all, Yoruha excelled at large-scale destructive ninjutsu. A group attack from ninjas was meaningless to him. Kakashi was relieved; the village had indeed been in danger before.
Now, not only was there no danger, but the village had also returned to its peak. Yoruha spoke calmly, "Manda, go and see your old comrades." Manda replied coldly, "Comrades? I don't acknowledge them as my comrades."
Despite his words, Manda slithered over. The three summons gathered, and Gamabunta taunted, "Manda, who would've thought you'd be so obedient at times?" Manda retorted coldly, "Watch it, toad, or I'll eat you."
Gamabunta, not backing down, gripped the dagger at his waist. Katsuyu timidly interjected, "Please, both of you, don't be so angry. We're not enemies now." Katsuyu's calming words eased the tension between Gamabunta and Manda.
Yoruha smiled and said, "Lord Katsuyu, nice to see you again." Katsuyu smiled gently, "It's a surprise to see you have a summoning contract with Manda." Katsuyu was very polite, with a gentle voice.
Yoruha quite liked it; if Katsuyu were more helpful to him, he would have preferred her as a summoning beast. Who wouldn't like a gentle, agreeable summoning beast?
Both the Three-Tails and Manda had very gruff voices and terrible tempers. If not for Yoruha's strength keeping them in check, they would surely cause chaos. Gamabunta said to Yoruha, "Kid, you're Naruto's classmate, right?"
Yoruha smiled, "Yes, it seems Lord Gamabunta has a good relationship with Naruto." Gamabunta laughed heartily, "Haha, kid, I like you."
"You shouldn't have signed a summoning contract with that foul snake; it's hard to get along with. Be careful it doesn't betray you in battle."
Manda was furious, "You filthy toad, you're asking for it!" Yoruha wasn't bothered, "It's fine, Manda's actually quite alright." Of course, this was just Yoruha being considerate of Manda's feelings.
After all, Manda was now his summoning beast, and since Manda hadn't defied him, Yoruha naturally gave him some face.
