Konoha: Tsunade, I am the Hokage!

Chapter 113 Capturing Ye Cang Alive
A few seconds later, the Third Kazekage arrived in the sky, but the place was already dead silent, with only blood and fire burning the anger in his heart.

Fortunately, Luo Sha did not die.

but.

He sensed a little and knew that Luo Sha was in a very bad situation at the moment.

Poison, burns, dehydration, external and internal injuries, and one hand was bleeding profusely. Although he did not die, he was not far from death.

It’s hard to imagine what kind of battle he went through.

In addition, the scene did not seem to have experienced any intense fighting.

The Third Kazekage was extremely anxious and urgently needed to know what was happening here, but he knew that he could not panic now.

calm down!

He took a few deep breaths, and his thoughts gradually became clear.

……

Bang!
Bang bang!

Three flares exploded in succession in the air and could be seen from far away in the open border.

soon.

Signals exploded one after another.

"Full retreat?"

Ye Cang turned around and looked up at the sky behind him.

how so!
What happened?
She had no way of understanding, but now she had no choice but to retreat with everyone.

"Retreat! I'll cover your retreat."

She shouted, and then flames surrounded her, condensing into high-temperature fireballs.

Flames were flying, creating a high-temperature hell all around, and trees were being burned dry.

On Mount Kikyo, Orochimaru frowned slightly.

"its not right!"

"How could they escape? Why would they run?"

He realized that something must have happened beyond his plan and he could no longer proceed according to the original plan.

Orochimaru was a little angry.

He finally set the bait and waited for the other party to fall into the trap, but his plan and rhythm were disrupted by an unexpected person.

but.

It's useless to say anything now.

"Hunt!"

Orochimaru gave the order without hesitation.

Then he opened his mouth and snakes crawled out of his mouth and rushed in all directions.

The Formation of Ten Thousand Snakes.

Originally, Orochimaru planned to let the Sand Village taste some sweetness first, place more bets on the River Country, and then close the net and catch the other party in one fell swoop.

But now, we can no longer take it slow.

……

[Personally take action to force the Sand Village to retreat and save the losses on the front line. 】

[Reward: Water Style: Water Array Wall Upgrade]

Jingyan was slightly surprised, but then he felt relieved.

Water Style: Water Array Wall, he has already cultivated it to a very high level on his own. According to his own estimation, he is not far from the Grandmaster level and may be just one step away.

but.

Many times, the finishing touch is the hardest.

Therefore, he was not too discouraged, and was more thinking about Orochimaru.

If they hadn't intervened, Orochimaru would have certainly lured the enemy deep into his territory, allowing them to further mobilize their troops, and then outflank and inflict heavy damage.

Snakes are very patient creatures.

but.

Jingyan didn't agree in his heart.

Perhaps, that situation would cause severe damage to the Sand Village, and it would not be able to attack Konoha for several years or even more than ten years, but Konoha would also suffer considerable losses.

Tsunade may have anticipated this, so she asked them to come to the rescue.

He recalled briefly.

Just as Jingyan thought, the extra memories this time were not much, but they didn’t seem to be bad either—

Before, he had been able to do two seals.

When one reaches the Grandmaster level, one can still produce large amounts of water to use the water array wall and reduce chakra consumption in an environment without water or even in a water-scarce environment.

the most important is--

Connect the seals!

He can complete the release of water-style ninjutsu by forming hand seals together with another individual. This technique can only be used for some jutsu with simple hand seals.

Or, the opponent's chakra is the same as your own -

For example, a shadow clone.

In addition, the range, defense strength, casting speed, etc. are more arbitrary.

The improvement to Grandmaster is quite significant!
While running, Jingyan was thinking about how to gain greater benefits.

The next step would be to get the strategic deployment rights for the front line. Even if that is not possible, at least he would have a decisive influence on Orochimaru's decision.

He glanced at Minato Namikaze.

"Minato, we have to be prepared to be scolded later."

Jingyan moved closer.

Minato Namikaze forced a smile but did not answer.

Before entering the battlefield, he definitely didn't understand what Orochimaru was thinking, but now, after coming into contact with the ninjas from the Sand Village, how could he not know Orochimaru's plans?
Even if there weren't many jonin, if Orochimaru really wanted to defend, it would be impossible for the Sand Village to reach here with its capabilities.

and so.

Orochimaru must have some plan.

For example, exchanging the lives of a few Chunins and Genins for a better battlefield and tactical environment.

but.

He couldn't agree more.

"Let's go, let's hunt them first, the focus is on the puppeteer and the jonin."

"It's hard for a jonin to tell..."

Kakashi interrupted.

"Then find a target that is more conspicuous."

Jing Yangang finished speaking.

At this time, flames shot up into the sky in the distance.

His eyes narrowed slightly.

Special chakra fluctuations!

"Does the Sand Village have a fire-related Kekkei Genkai?"

"Scorch Release Ye Cang?"

Namikaze Minato's eyes lit up.

Zhuo escapes to Ye Cang.

This is a well-known jonin from the Sand Village. He has made great contributions in missions and wars in previous years and is the vanguard in every major battle.

"go!"

He felt refreshed.

If they could kill Ye Cang again, they would have made a great contribution. If they could capture him alive, that would be an even greater achievement.

"Kakashi, please protect Hong later and don't rush to the front."

Kyouhiko looked at Kakashi.

This guy has already used the Lightning Rasengan once and killed several people in the process. Now he lacks the physical strength and energy to sustain an intense battle.

Kakashi nodded silently.

……

The burning fireball blew out gusts of hot wind, baking the surrounding poisonous snakes dry.

"Teacher, let's retreat too!"

"Maki, you guys retreat first. Staying here will only burden me. When I escort another group of people, follow me and we will meet up in River Country."

Ye Cang panted slightly.

There are still some people who have not evacuated!
Maki hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Teacher, you must come!"

"Do not worry."

Ye Cang smiled.

Then, she sensed the movements around her and quickly ran in the next direction.

In the direction she was heading, countless snakes were besieging the four people.

Soon, the snakes overwhelmed them.

next moment.

laugh!
All four of them turned into puppets. Four people jumped out from underground, two of them each controlled two simple puppets and continued to strangle the snakes.

but.

Soon, someone screamed.

Inside his body, bugs were gnawing at his skin, and soon the bugs broke out of his body.

The three teammates around him had already moved away in horror.

Send bad bugs!
The Oil Woman Clan.

This strange secret technique is extremely terrifying to puppet masters.

As long as they are parasitic, they will be everywhere.

"Save me, save me..."

He released a lot of poison.

The poison did kill some parasites, but most of them were still frantically eating away at his body.

In the blink of an eye, the puppeteer collapsed.

The swarm of insects spread in all directions like a tide.

Aburame Shiwei was controlling the bugs in the dark, and was about to surround and kill the three people when fireballs came from a distance.

The blazing flames burned the air.

The high temperature killed a large number of parasites instantly.

Aburame Shiwei's eyes darkened.

Burning escape!

It’s Ye Cang.

His parasite is not afraid of puppetry, poison, or wind-style ninjutsu, but is very afraid of this kind of high-temperature flame ninjutsu.

"Tachikawa, cooperate with me."

"Yes!"

Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough.

Burning escape, over-steaming and killing.

One used wind escape, the other used burning escape. The two cooperated, and in an instant, a fiery gust of wind swept through, and the trees and insects were instantly turned into dead trees.

"go!"

She was about to take people away.

Tuk-tuk-tuk!
Kunai shot out from the darkness, landing randomly in the woods behind her.

"careful!"

Ye Cang suddenly became alert.

Although she didn't know the function of the kunai in the back, even if each one carried a detonating talisman, it would be enough to give them a hard time.

Never step into the opponent's trap!
"Come with me!"

She fled in the direction she came from.

At this moment, a black shadow flashed in the dark woods in front of her.

In the blink of an eye, kunai were shot out again, surrounding the area in front of her.

Ye Cang was not sure about the function of these kunai, but she knew that since the opponent had painstakingly placed them in front of her, they must not be useless.

So--

She drew out her chakra and formed seals with her hands.

With the help of the wind, the fireballs quickly floated in the air and quickly burned everything around them.

She took the lead, controlling the fireball and rushing forward.

The expected explosion did not occur, instead, two people appeared in front.

Konoha Ninja!
next second.

call out!
The two of them disappeared at the same time.

So fast!

Ye Cang activated his chakra again, but the next moment, the opponent was already not far in front of him.

She quickly activated the fireball.

Burning escape: over-steaming and killing!

but.

In the blink of an eye, a wall of water rose up.

The rushing water turned into a whirlpool, sucking the three people inside into it.

One maintained the water array wall, and the other spit out a large amount of water, rushing forward.

One fireball after another was suppressed until it went out.

The three Sunagakure ninjas were stunned.

They had never seen such suppression of Burning Escape.

Using water to cool down...

but.

He was burned by the Burning Release and there was no water around him. How could he have such a large amount of chakra?

Ye Cang frowned.

The person in front of him was none other than Konoha's genius jonin.

Judging from these techniques alone, the opponent's level is no less than that of Senju Tobirama back then!
and many more?

"Be careful! Use wind escape!"

but.

late.

Namikaze Minato jumped up, and quickly formed a seal -

Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough!
The violent hurricane instantly swept in a large area of ​​evaporating high-temperature water vapor, which rushed towards them.

Ye Cang is not afraid.

But her men could not withstand such high temperature steam.

If they were a little slow, their whole bodies would feel like they were in a furnace, and the severe burns would make it difficult for them to move.

Even more terrifying.

After the wind blew, a piece of talisman paper floated silently to their side.

Ye Cang's pupils shrank.

She was horrified and quickly formed seals, and fireballs appeared again.

however.

The next second, Jing Yan was already in front of him.

In the air, he touched hands with his shadow clone and quickly completed three seals. In an instant, the water under his feet gathered and turned into a water dragon that rose up with its head held high.

Water Dragon Bullet Technique!
the difference is.

This time, the Water Dragon Bullet Technique enveloped the two of them, carrying them forward at the speed of water, and only when it got close did it roar and rush towards Ye Cang.

but.

As it got closer, it was evaporated by the flames.

At the same time, three screams were heard from behind.

"Quick, run!"

Someone shouted with difficulty.

Ye Cang shook her lips, turned around and was about to run away, but at this moment, a vine grew out from underneath and entangled her.

what?
An expression of disbelief appeared on her face.

Wood escape!

How can it be?

She immediately used flames to burn the vines that were entangled with her, but then Jingyan arrived in front of her and punched her from top to bottom, like a bolt from the blue.

boom!
Under the strange power, the earth cracked, Ye Cang's shoulders collapsed, and he vomited blood from his mouth.

She was badly injured and could barely move.

There was despair in Ye Cang's eyes.

The boy in front of her was not as powerful as they were when they met last year, but now she is no match for him.

Such rapid progress!
Even if I die, I will take the other person with me...

She became furious and mobilized the chakra in her body, and fireballs emerged from her body.

however.

The next moment, Jingyan placed his palm on her forehead.

Bang!
He knocked him down with one blow, and at the same time, scenes of his life in the village appeared in front of his eyes. Not far away, Maki was working hard to practice sealing ninjutsu.

How beautiful!

Ye Cang was slightly startled, then quickly came to his senses.

This is illusion!

However, when the view returned to normal, it was already a dark forest and sky.

"I'm sorry Maki, I have to break my promise!"

A thought of despair flashed through her mind.

The next moment, Ye Cang lost consciousness.

"Are you OK?"

"fine."

Jingyan shook his head.

The one I just rushed over to hit was not the real body.

However, the feedback from the burning of his shadow clone caused his arm to be extremely painful.

"Not killing her?"

"Scorch Escape has a high research value."

Jingyan answered.

The fusion of fire and wind attributes produces a special bloodline limit that cannot be restrained even by water jutsu, and the only way to bully the opponent is by using chakra.

This kind of bloodline limit is definitely worth studying.

As he was speaking, a laugh was heard not far away.

"Jingyan-kun, you and I are thinking the same thing."

Orochimaru walked out quietly from the darkness.

When he saw the vines on Ye Cang's ankles, a look of disbelief flashed in his eyes.

Wood escape!

This child actually mastered Wood Release Ninjutsu?
He looked at Jingyan, his eyes more enthusiastic and excited: "Jingyan-kun, I think after this war is over, we can have a good talk and talk about Scorch Release and Wood Release, okay?"

"Of course, I also have some doubts, and I hope to get your guidance."

Jingyan did not change his manners.

At the moment, based on his relationship with Tsunade, there is not much reason for Orochimaru to kill him.

Orochimaru licked his lips.

He looked at the four corpses and suppressed his excitement.

"They have all escaped far away. There is no point in chasing them. Withdraw your troops and rest. I also want to talk to you."

Orochimaru said and disappeared.

This is just a shadow clone.

Jingyan looked at Namikaze Minato and said, "Minato, you have to speak for me."

"I think Lord Orochimaru admires you very much, so he might not do anything to you."

Namikaze Minato smiled slightly.

but.

He quickly collected his expression.

"Later, you must stop Orochimaru from carrying out his plan."

"of course."

Jingyan nodded.

Kakashi and Kurenai Yuhi just came over at this moment.

Looking at the messy and horrific scene, they were all shocked.

Although I have just witnessed it with my own eyes, it is still a completely different experience to be in actual close contact with it.

Burning escape.

What a terrifying bloodline limit!
Fortunately, the other party has been captured alive by them.

Two people came to their side.

"Was that Lord Orochimaru just now?"

"Well, follow the order and withdraw from Kikyo Mountain."

"Yes!"

On the way back, they did not simply rush on their way, but kept searching for the remaining ninjas along the way. Some of them were still alive but injured, and after their treatment they were temporarily out of danger.

but.

Those who were burned to death by Scorch Release had their bodies roasted dry, and there was no way to save them.

The group felt extremely heavy-hearted.

This is the most dead bodies they have seen since they became ninjas!
