Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.

bang~
"Ape Demon!"

The ape demon who lost Kun Kun left the battle in great pain. Without even having time to recover his true form, he turned into a puff of white smoke and ran back to Huaguo Mountain to seek a way to save Kun.

Seeing that his attempts to retain him were futile, Sarutobi Hiruzen could only slowly raise his hand and salute, expressing his deepest condolences to this comrade with whom he had shared life and death.

There was a gleam in his eyes, as if he had made some decision.

Yuan Mo, don't worry, I will take care of your wife and children.

Danzo landed beside Sarutobi Hiruzen and looked solemnly at the complicated black mask on No.6's face.
"Monkey, what should we do?"

They couldn't even defeat the clones in their normal state, let alone the Sage Mode.

Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at the huge battle raging in the distance, and knew that no one could help them at the moment and they had to rely on themselves.

"Our mission is to buy time for the teacher and Hokage. The longer we can delay, the better."

As for defeating the clones, F6 had no such illusions from the beginning. The God of Ninja was not something that anybody could mess with.

All they could do was try their best to hold back the clone in front of them and relieve the pressure on Senju Tobirama and Uchiha Madara.

"How's the wind going?"

"I am fine."

After Utane Koharu's treatment, Akimichi Torifu, who nearly died of suffocation, has recovered, but there is a bit more fear on his face.
It seems that the shadow that was just taken down by the clone has not yet dissipated.

"He seems different from the other clones."

Uchiha Kagami stared at Number Six with his Sharingan. After observing him for a long time, he spoke uncertainly.

"Mirror, what did you see?"

The other few people immediately became alert, guarding against No. 6's sudden attack, while urging Uchiha Jing not to keep them in suspense.
"He has no fighting spirit."

Combat awareness refers to the combat participants' keen understanding of the combat objectives, situations, and actions, as well as their corresponding response capabilities.

It was obvious that the clone fighting against them lacked the most basic combat awareness and had no strong desire to fight.

In fact, it is not surprising that Clone No. 6 did not work hard. The original purpose of his creation was to collect the chakra of the tailed beasts.

Although they have now been assigned by No. 6 to deal with F, these humans do not have any traces of the tailed beast's chakra in their bodies, and cannot awaken his desire for spiritual intelligence.

To put it simply, his body told him that he didn't want to work for nothing.

As for the task assigned by No. 1, just try to fool around with it. Cixian won't blame him for it anyway.

After listening to Uchiha Jing's words, everyone frowned and thought for a while, and found that it was just as he said, this clone was very likely to be slacking off.

“It’s very good for us.”

Sarutobi Hiruzen narrowed his eyes and felt relieved. If this clone could remain in this state, they could delay more time.

The others also looked happy and expressed their approval of the ELO matching mechanism.

"Hey, we're sure to win~"

Unable to contain himself, Danzo even started popping champagne at halftime.

"Number Six! Quickly take care of those humans, we need backup!"

At this moment, an exasperated voice rang out on the battlefield, and a huge wooden man was seen running around being chased by the blue Susanoo, with a clone standing on top of it with a panicked look on his face.

Although No.1 was the first clone to gain intelligence, he absorbed the One-Tail after all, so his strength can only be described as so-so.

Of course, it would be fine if I could deal with an ordinary Tailed Beast Knight.
But this time, he ran into a tough guy. This red-eyed human was even more aggressive than the curly-haired one he met before. He wouldn't give him any melon seeds or chat with him. He just started hacking at him.

In desperation, Number One had to urge the two clones to come to help, but he did not find any trace of Number Five, so he had to call Number Six who was paddling not far away.

After receiving the order again, No. 6 was forced to stop paddling. He slowly raised his hands and put them together. Then the sturdy wooden dragon rose from the ground and bit towards F.

"Roar!"

The F6's faces froze, the smiles on their faces disappeared instantly, and they immediately fled in all directions.

Rumbling--

The F6s who had dodged to the side, looked at the huge furrows plowed by the wooden dragon on the ground, and swallowed subconsciously.
"Everyone brace yourself, he's coming!"

Without waiting for the others to communicate, Jing, who had been staring at the enemy, shouted as a warning, and turned himself into a stream of red light, heading towards the speeding clone.

[Ninjutsu: Sun-Dance]

He swung the scarlet sword in his hand, sending out several blade lights condensed from flames.
Facing the burning blow, Clone No. 6 did not dodge or evade, but raised his hands in mid-air to block.

Bah!
Bah!Bah!
"Nani!?"

Uchiha Jing's eyes widened in surprise, looking at the clone in disbelief, who had blocked all of his Halo Dance simply by raising his hands and stomping his feet. He couldn't help but feel a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart.
No wonder the opponent remained unharmed despite being surrounded by their escape techniques, it turned out that he had such terrifying blocking ability.

"Mirror, don't be discouraged!"

Without the cooperation of Enma, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not dare to fight the clones in close combat like Jing, but he did not flinch. Instead, he used the Shadow Clone Technique to create four clones.
The four clones and the original body leaped high into the air, surrounding the clone in the air. The five of them formed different hand seals.
"Five Escapes: The Technique of Large Continuous Bullets!"

Five completely different types of chakra gushed out instantly, transforming into five jutsu with incredible destructive power, smashing towards the clone in mid-air that was unable to dodge.

Rumble!
"Huhu."

Listening to the roaring sound beside his ears, Sarutobi Hiruzen showed a faint smile on his face.

The Great Dan Jutsu is a special compound ninjutsu that he has practiced for many years. Its destructive power is the greatest among conventional ninjutsu. Even Uchiha Gin couldn't help but praise its power and said that it can be used when he has to give it a try.

Even a clone as powerful as the Great Sensei is still a mortal after all. Faced with a compound ninjutsu with such powerful destructive power, it would be at least severely injured if it did not die.

Jing, who was also staring at the explosion, did not dare to relax at all. The Sharingan's superb vision penetrated through the layers of smoke and finally saw the figure standing at the center of the explosion.
Not only that, the opponent also leaned over and bent his knees, making a sprinting posture.

whoosh-

"Huruzen, be careful!"

"?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned at first when he heard the warning, but out of trust in the mirror, he immediately jumped back.
But in just a blink of an eye, a figure jumped out from the smoke and stood in front of him.
The remaining clothes on Clone No. 6 were all torn to pieces, leaving only a few rags hanging around his waist, barely covering his exposed beauty. His sturdy body was covered with various scars.
Burns, frostbite, lacerations
It can be seen that Sarutobi Hiruzen's five-bullet technique was not ineffective, and it actually broke the clone's defense.

The next moment, a jaw-dropping scene took place. These hideous wounds were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. After just a few breaths, the skin on the clone's body returned to its newborn state, as if the previous injury was just an illusion.

Move. Move quickly!

Overwhelmed by the opponent's terrifying aura, Sarutobi Hiruzen lost control of his body for a moment. He could only look at the clone standing in front of him with despair, ready to close his eyes and wait for death.
Clone No. 6 raised his fist with an expressionless face. With the help of magic, his fist could even penetrate Susanoo, not to mention Sarutobi Hiruzen's fragile body.

The moment before the clone's fist smashed into his head, a revolving lantern opened in Sarutobi Hiruzen's mind, and every detail of his first half of life emerged one by one, including his parents, his lover, and his comrades.
The violent fist wind rushed towards him, and Sarutobi Hiruzen chose to close his eyes.
Goodbye, everyone
"puff!"

However, after a few seconds, the imagined pain did not come, and the sharp wind from the fist suddenly disappeared, replaced by a warm drizzle that sprinkled on his face.

Bloody smell?

Am I already dead?

Thinking that the clone's fist was too fierce, causing him to die before he could even react to the pain, Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly opened his eyes, but the scene before him shocked him.

The one standing in front of him was Danzo, whose face was as white as gold paper. The clone's devastating punch smashed into the other's huge buttocks, turning the originally tight and elastic buttocks into limp meat paste, which fell to the ground helplessly.
Danzo himself was also injured by the impact, with blood and flesh constantly gushing out of his mouth. Seeing that his life was about to come to an end, he still forced himself to show a smug smile.

"Ahem, you owe me one, monkey."

After saying that, the light in his eyes faded, and he slowly fell towards the confused Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Do not!!!"

Compared to the grief-stricken Hiruzen, No.6 showed no sign of being moved. He pulled his hand out of the limp buttocks expressionlessly and locked onto the target he had not attacked just now.
"Super pusher!"

Just as he raised his fist again, Qiu Dao Qu Feng, with eyes wide open, attacked with hatred, and pushed out his huge hand with great force.
Number 6 was not paying attention and was pushed dozens of meters away by the giant palm, but his body remained as steady as a rock, and only two deep furrows were plowed in the ground.

"Come on!"

Utane Koharu and Mitokado En took the opportunity to fly up, picked up the limp Danzo and the ashen-faced Hiruzen, and quickly retreated to distance themselves from the clones.
Seeing this, No. 6 punched the hand that was pushing him down. The terrifying force broke his metacarpal bone and went straight up along the meridian.

"Boom!"

Qiu Dao Qufeng felt pain and quickly withdrew his hand. After it returned to its normal size, his entire arm drooped limply to one side.

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

Uchiha Jing jumped up, took a deep breath in mid-air, and endured the burning chakra in his throat. After condensing it to the limit, he blew it out fiercely.
The rich fire attribute chakra turned into a huge fireball and pressed towards the clone.
Seeing this, in order to save the last few pieces of cloth on his body, No. 6 clasped his hands together, and thick branches rose from the ground, forming a conical arch in front of him, wrapping his body in it to defend himself from the fireball.

[Wood Release: Wood Wall]

"boom!"

After contacting the target, the fireball with incredible destructive power exploded instantly, and the scorching breath filled the entire battlefield. The F6s also took this opportunity to retreat to a safer distance and take a breath.

But Jing did not relax at all. He raised his hand and made the same seal again. The huge fireball hit the crumbling wooden wall again, buying more time for his teammates.

"Danzo! Don't sleep!"

Utane Koharu knelt on the ground, her hands glowing green, and she poured the vitality transformed from chakra into the body of Danzo, who was barely breathing, but the results were minimal.

The rise and fall of his chest became slower and slower. With his face stained with his best friend's blood, Sarutobi Hiruzen watched all this in a daze. A deep sense of powerlessness grew in his heart. His mind was filled with the scenes of his childhood with Danzo.
"Boom!"

"Damn it! I should have been the one to block it!"

Qiu Daoqufeng punched the ground hard, his chubby face full of guilt.

Mitomon En stood aside with his head down, his glasses shielding his tearful eyes.
Their relationship with Danzo was no less affectionate than that with Sarutobi Hiruzen, and they were equally filled with grief over the departure of this close friend.

"It's all my fault. If he hadn't saved me, he wouldn't have..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the pale-faced Danzo and muttered to himself,

this moment,
He no longer blamed Danzo for not sharing his lollipop.

I no longer care about Danzo not lending me 500 yuan.

I am not even angry that Danzo didn't share the good magazine with me.

His only wish now is that his best friend can survive.

"Danzo, can you hear me, Danzo! If you survive, I will forgive you no matter what mistakes you make in the future!"

Helplessly grasping Danzo's limp arm, Sarutobi Hiruzen's trembling voice sounded like sobbing, bringing the already sad atmosphere to a climax in an instant.

After failing to save Danzo, Koharu Utane collapsed on the ground. She was so desperate that she couldn't help but cover her face and sob.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu."

"The huge fireball won't last long. How is Danzo?"

At this moment, Uchiha Jing, who had bought precious breathing time with the technique of burning immortals, landed in front of everyone. Looking at the grief-stricken expressions of his friends, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
not good!

Could it be that Danzo has died suddenly?
He must not die!

"Kami, come and see Danzo one last time."

Akimichi Tofu made way, revealing Danzo lying on the ground behind him. Uchiha Kagami immediately stepped forward to check, touched the other's neck, and found that it was still beating slightly, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, I'm glad you're not dead yet!"

"Jing, what do you mean?"

The people who were immersed in grief were stunned when they heard this, and looked at Uchiha Jing who was showing a look of relief.

The other party did not say much, but fumbled in the backpack behind him, and finally took out a bottle of scarlet unknown liquid.
"Help me lift him up."

Upon seeing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately pulled up his half-dead friend, and Jing then poured the red liquid in his hand into Danzo's stomach.
"Tons, tons, tons~"

As the large bottle of liquid disappeared, everyone was surprised to find that Danzo's originally pale face actually showed a red color that symbolized vitality, the rise and fall of his chest became much more stable, and the lost vital signs also returned.

"Alive! Danzo is alive!"

After checking it out, Koharu Uta-ne burst into laughter.
Sarutobi Hiruzen turned his head, his blood-stained face full of gratitude.

"Thank you, Jing."

"This is what I should do."

Uchiha Jing waved his hand, a serious look on his handsome face. He saved Danzo not just out of affection.

"Danzo still owes me a lot of money, how can I let him get ahead of me." (End of this chapter)
