Konoha: I, Ninja War Sakura, rely entirely on skills!

Chapter 187 Your strength ranks last among all the shadows
Nara Shikaku, the patriarch of the Nara clan, is also Sarutobi Hiruzen's right-hand man.

If you have any questions about domestic affairs, ask Shikaku; if you have any questions about external affairs, ask Sakura.

"This situation is quite similar to the situation in the Frost Country."

Nara Shikaku was very keen and noticed the existence of White Zetsu.

"Yes."

"From this, we can see that the mysterious perception ninja on the battlefield of the Frost Country is not from Kumogakure."

"But it's someone from Akatsuki."

Sakura nodded to Nara Shikaku.

"Well, what if Yunyin is still determined to make a comeback?"

Akimichi Choza scratched his head and spoke.

"No, unless they don't want Turtle Island anymore."

Sakura rejected Akimichi Choza's idea, although Sakura had no intention of returning Kame Island at all.

According to the treaty, Konoha has the right to use Turtle Island for five years.

Five years?

By that time, the grass on the Raikage's grave was already three feet high, so why did they return Turtle Island?
The dream was good, and I suggest you continue to dream it.

Nara Shikaku stroked his chin, looking thoughtful.

He didn't understand before why he had to give up most of his interests in exchange for the so-called Turtle Island, but judging from Sakura's attitude, it was obvious that there was something absolutely important on the Turtle Island.

However, the dust has settled on the Kumogakure side, and now the important thing is the Sand Ninja side.

"So Sakura, what do you think about the Sand Ninja?"

Mizuto Menen looked at the pink-haired girl in front of him and spoke.

Sakura has proven her ability on the battlefield of the Frost Country.

Mizuto Menen would never regard the pink-haired boy in front of him as an ordinary Konoha ninja.

Sakura looked at Mitomon En in front of her and an inexplicable smile appeared at the corner of her lips.

The pink-haired girl stretched out three fingers and looked at the people around her.

"Three days."

"Deal with the Sand Ninja."

?

!

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the room suddenly stagnated.

Everyone looked at Sakura in surprise.

What is she saying?
Resolve this war in three days?
They were almost fighting to the death for several months?

"The information about my arrival at the front line will naturally leak out. There is no need to hide it."

"You have to go when you have to."

"Not only the Sand Ninja, but even Kakuzu must know that the target of my team is Kakuzu."

Mitomon Yan frowned and thought, although that was true, but...

"Sakura, do you mean to launch a general attack?"

Sakura nodded when she heard that.

"Although this war has only lasted a few months, the number of casualties is far beyond what can be compared to the previous ninja wars."

"I believe you all know this much better than I do."

Mito Menyan pondered in silence. Although he trusted Sakura very much, defeating the Sand Ninja in three days was too much of a joke.

In Mito Kado En's impression, war should be about back and forth, countering each move, reconnaissance, ambush, lure, encirclement, attack and defense.

Although there are so-called blitzkriegs, they are usually fought by a small number of elite troops, and then beheaded by one or several masters...

Ok?
Several experts?

Mizuto Menen looked at the pink-haired girl in front of her, and Kakashi and Mei Terumi behind her.

"Our target is Kakuzu. We can't avenge our humiliation if Kakuzu doesn't die."

"Now that they know I'm coming, won't I be their target?"

"Judge others by your own standards, Elder Yan. If you were the commander-in-chief of the Sand Ninja, what would you think if you knew that the other side had me?"

Mitomon En remained silent.

What would you think?
In this case of a ninja, the opponent's new generation rises rapidly with a devastating force if he is the commander-in-chief of the Sand Ninja.

Even if it means sacrificing the overall situation, we must kill this person here!

We'd even pile up human lives to kill such a person!

Never allow the other party to grow!

otherwise……

"Sakura, you want to use yourself as bait?"

Mizuto Menyan seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Although the idea is good, Chiyo will never give up such an opportunity.

However, this is too risky.

After all, she is Hiruzen's successor. Judging from Sakura's performance, if there are no fatal mistakes along the way, she will definitely be the Fifth or Sixth Hokage.

Gambling with the pink-haired girl's safety, if something goes wrong, Hiruzen will probably never recover.

"Yes, once I show up, the other party will definitely make me their first target."

"We want to kill Kakuzu, and the Sand Ninja wants to kill me."

"Then let's see who has the harder fist."

Sakura's words were very calm, as if putting herself in a dangerous situation was a normal thing.

"Sakura."

The person who spoke was neither the commander-in-chief Mito Kado En nor the military commander Nara Shikaku, but Yamanaka Inoichi.

Ino's father.

The man, who had the same beige hair as Ino, was looking seriously at his daughter's friend.

"Can you tell me what made you do this?"

Looking at the man in front of her, Sakura stretched out her hand.

There is nothing in my hands.

But the next second, azure chakra flame burned in the palm of his hand.

This is a manifestation of the materialization of chakra.

But then, a golden light appeared in the center of the blue flame.

Born in the flames, it was just a flame that seemed like it would go out at any moment.

But everyone present couldn't help but widen their eyes when they saw the golden flame.

Especially Akimichi Chouza.

The Akimichi clan, who have been studying the art of multiplication, have been studying the so-called Yang escape for hundreds of years.

For hundreds of years, no one has ever completed the materialization of Yangtun Chakra!

To materialize the Yang Release Chakra, not only an understanding of Yang Release is required but also one's own talent.

And their Akimichi clan has never had anyone who can possess such Yangtun Chakra.

Feeling the tangible vitality coming from the golden flame in Sakura's hand, Akimichi Choza couldn't help but swallow.

This is not just about materializing the Yangtun Chakra, it also represents one thing.

That is the pink-haired girl in front of us. The path she is taking has already taken a direction that no one has ever set foot on.

Perhaps the former First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, could have also taken the path of Yang Release, but the other party took a different approach and chose Wood Release.

And now, another person has once again chosen Yang Dun.

"Sakura..."

Akimichi Choza's breathing became a little rapid.

"My confidence comes from my Yang Dun."

Sakura's voice flickered like a flame, but the confidence revealed in it was like the golden flame that no one could ignore.

Yang Dun corresponds to the physical body.

Sakura's own abilities, such as supernatural powers and medical ninjutsu, are almost comprehensively enhanced with the emergence of Yang-tun ninjutsu.

Strength, speed, recovery, reaction, and dynamic vision are comprehensively enhanced without blind spots.

Even the amount of chakra has increased a lot.

And all this is just the beginning.

The ultimate core of her Yang Dun is nurturing.

Nourish 130 trillion cells in the body.

The longer the cells are nurtured, the stronger Sakura's body will become.

Unlimited growth.

To put it simply, as Sakura grows older, she becomes stronger.

Yang Dun will continue to transform himself into a perfect creature.

This is Yang Dun.

This is also the path that Sakura is committed to.

The original Sakura possessed supernatural powers, the Yin Seal, the Hundred Healings Technique, the spiritual communication between the Monkey Demon King and the slug, and her strength reached that of a powerful shadow.

Now with the Yangtun Nintaijutsu, it is almost a comprehensive evolution.

If I have to describe it at a level.

That is...Super Shadow!
goalkeeper……

Even though he was just a goalkeeper, he was still a super shadow after all, and this was just the beginning.

-

Mitomon En agreed to Sakura's proposal.

Sakura was used as bait and went directly to the battlefield to launch a general attack.

Time passed quickly and a day had passed. Mito Menyan launched the general attack without hesitation.

Breeze blowing
Greenery
The ecological environment of the River Country is quite good, and this country also has the best ecology among small countries.

However, because it borders the Fire Kingdom and the Wind Kingdom, this country has become a battlefield.

but……

The so-called war will end today.

Mitomon En stood on the command platform and looked at the Sand Ninjas who were confronting each other.

Because of the last nano-poison insect incident, Konoha suffered heavy losses. Although the Sand Ninja also suffered a lot, under Kakuzu's deliberate control later, the losses of the Sand Ninja were not serious.

The number of Sand Ninjas is at least 1,500 more than that of Konoha.

Sakura was wearing Konoha's standard ninja uniform, and her long pink hair was tied up with a black headband.

Sakura wasn't wearing the Konoha forehead protector.

Now with her strength, characteristics and reputation, she no longer needs a forehead protector to prove her identity.

She just had to stand here and everyone would know.

She is a ninja from Konoha.

Haruno Sakura of Konoha.

Just like Tsunade.

The breeze blew her cherry-pink hair, and her pair of emerald eyes calmly looked at the several thousand-strong Sand Ninja Army opposite her.

Even though her team was outnumbered, Sakura didn't panic at all.

I come, I see, I conquer.

From the moment she set foot on this land, the balance of war had already tilted.

In the current ninja world, if Pain doesn’t come out, who will compete with him for the top spot?

"Mitomon En!"

An old but powerful voice came from the distant Sand Ninja command platform.

"It seems you have figured it out."

"You've been a coward for long enough. Are you finally ready to lose your temper?"

The voice of Sand Ninja Elder Chiyo resounded throughout the battlefield through chakra.

Mitomon En remained unmoved and looked at Sakura beside him.

Sakura smiled knowingly and spoke immediately.

"Are you Chiyo?"

"The one who was beaten by my senior sister Tsunade during the Second Shinobi World War?"

The young and somewhat childish voice resounded on the battlefield just as loudly.

"Hmph, you must be Haruno Sakura."

"What triggered this war?"

"He is young but has a sinister mind. He is indeed a born evil kid from Konoha!"

Chiyo's words came.

“Don’t make excuses for your incompetence.”

"The Sand Ninja tore up the alliance agreement first, and teamed up with our village's traitorous ninja Orochimaru to assassinate the Hokage."

"You're still trying to confuse right and wrong. You're really a rat in a mountain den." "You're the same bird as Kumogakure!"

Sakura said it casually, and the Sand Ninja didn't need to bother making excuses for their actions.

There are so many black spots that there is no need to find excuses.

"You little girl, you're not that old, but you're quite eloquent."

"No wonder he is the disciple of that old fellow Sarutobi Hiruzen."

"If you ask me, if you raise your hands and surrender now, I can still spare your life!"

Chiyo didn't care about Sakura's accusations at all.

"Haha, the Sand Ninja backstabbed his ally and now he's conflating right and wrong, trying to make a falsehood into truth."

"Instead of being ashamed, you take advantage of your age and seniority. This really fits my old-fashioned impression of you."

"They are indeed a bunch of hypocritical villains."

"The group of burly savages in Kumogakure at least knew to use the peace agreement as a cover."

"And you guys don't even want to act anymore, you really don't care about your reputation..."

"As expected of a villain who hangs out with Kumogakure."

Sakura started to criticize without mercy, without using a single curse word in the entire speech. She managed to suppress the morale of the Sand Ninjas with just her words.

Chiyo looked gloomily at the pink color on the Konoha command podium in the distance.

"So, this is your reason for suppressing food exports and watching our people perish?!"

Chiyo, as expected of an old man who has lived for decades, directly changed the subject and directed his criticism at the Fire Nation's policy of blocking food exports.

"how?"

"What do you think of my things?"

Sakura sneered. She laughed at Chiyo's recklessness and Kazekage's lack of wisdom, and they brought up irrelevant issues.

"Since ancient times, the Fire Nation has always exported a steady supply of food to the big countries..."

"It has been right since ancient times!"

Sakura's suddenly raised voice interrupted Chiyo's words.

"During the first, second, and third Ninja World Wars, the Fire Nation never stopped exporting food."

"But what did you get in return?"

"It's war!"

“It’s bloody!”

“It’s cruel!”

"The Konoha ninjas are going to fight the Sand ninjas and Cloud ninjas who are eating the food of the Land of Fire!"

"It would be fine if you were ungrateful, but you actually raised your butcher knife and pointed it at the Fire Nation!"

"It would be better to feed the food to the dogs than to feed it to you!"

"Even a dog can bark twice, but what about you?"

"Such an ungrateful villain!"

"What's the point of keeping it!"

At this point, the emotions of the Konoha ninjas were completely aroused by Sakura.

They all looked at the Sand Ninja opposite them with a fierce look.

"ungrateful!"

"ungrateful!"

"ungrateful!"

The shouts, accompanied by anger, rose into the sky.

"Damn girl!"

Chiyo gritted her teeth and stared at the pink opposite.

She wanted to retort and defend the Sand Ninja, but when she opened her mouth, she found that she didn't know what to say.

Because what the other party said is right.

"What are you still hesitating about?"

"If we don't improve our morale, we're almost done for."

Rosa on the side watched all this with an expressionless face.

On the day that Haruno Sakura arrived at the battlefield, he received the intelligence and rushed to the battlefield with Gaara at full speed.

The purpose is to defeat Haruno Sakura in one battle.

This was also the first thought in his mind when he left Konoha after the failed assassination attempt on the Hokage.

He would crush, ravage and destroy this cherry blossom of Konoha on the battlefield.

"I see."

After taking a look at Luo Sha beside her, Chiyo pursed her lips and immediately gave the order to attack.

The Sand Ninja, who had already been scolded by Sakura and felt aggrieved, immediately rushed towards the Konoha Ninja opposite him like a wolf or a tiger.

The Konoha ninjas, who had been reminded by Sakura, were filled with indignation when they learned that the other party was a Sand ninja who was eating their own food and wanted to ruin the pot.

The first thing the two sides did when they met was to engage in an extremely fierce and bloody fight!

"Elder Yan, please command the battle. I will go first."

Seeing this, Sakura didn't hesitate and jumped towards the battlefield!

Kakashi and Mei Terumi, who had been on standby, followed closely behind.

In this battle, Sakura never thought about the so-called plan.

It's very simple.

She wanted to kill Kakuzu, and the Sand Ninja wanted to kill her.

Then let’s fight it out on the battlefield to see who has the stronger fist!

hum!
An extremely piercing roar suddenly exploded on the battlefield!

At some point, a Sand Ninja in the Sand Ninja army looked at his chest, with an incomprehensible fear in his eyes.

What's this?
A fist-sized hole appeared on the Sand Ninja's chest, and through the terrifying hole, one could clearly see the back of the Sand Ninja.

The Sand Ninja wanted to call for help, but all the strength in his body was fading away like the tide, and it seemed that even opening his mouth was an extremely difficult task.

puff……

His body fell to the ground with a dull sound...

This made the Sand Ninja's companions freeze in place, and they turned around in disbelief to look at where their teammates were.

Nothing...nothing...

Why did he... die?
No one answered their questions, only a kunai was quietly stuck into the stone behind the fallen Sand Ninja.

"It's stained with blood..."

A strange yet familiar voice rang in the ears of the Sand Ninja's fellows.

I saw a pink figure appear at some point, calmly bent down and pulled out the kunai from the stone.

It seemed as if the other party suddenly appeared here just to pull out that kunai.

They didn't know this person, but the voice he made...

It was the Konoha ninja who had just had a quarrel with Elder Chiyo!
Her name seems to be...

Haruno Sakura!
He pulled out the blood-stained kunai and looked around with his emerald eyes.

puff!
The surrounding Sand Ninja opened their eyes wide in disbelief, their faces filled with despair...

What...when?
When did this Konoha ninja take action?

But still no one responded to their questions, and even if someone did, they could no longer hear any sound.

But in just a moment, the kunai in Sakura's hand had already torn their throats apart.

Unable to resist, unable to contend, unable to react.

In front of her, swinging the sharp blade in my hand seemed like a luxury.

"It seems to be working well."

Sakura casually dealt with an unknown Sand Ninja beside her and looked calmly at the corpses lying around her.

This is an application of Yang Dun and Yin Dun.

Yang escape allowed Sakura to evolve at the cellular level, like the intimidation of a tiger facing a rabbit. Combined with Yin escape's chakra techniques, it formed a localized suppression field.

Don't forget that Sakura herself is a genius in illusion.

Not using illusion and not knowing how to use illusion are two completely different concepts.

Previously, Sakura thought that illusion techniques required hand seals, but she found it troublesome.

However, the combination of Yang-tun ninjutsu and Yin-tun techniques created an overwhelming aura that prevented Sakura from forming any hand seals.

Or it can be understood as the suppression of lower creatures by higher creatures.

Just like the innate strength of a tiger, the smell it leaves behind can scare the weak ones to death.

Sakura had just come up with this technique on a whim, and it worked surprisingly well.

Of course, this is not complete suppression. As long as you have courage and obsession in your heart, or your strength reaches a certain level, you can break through this kind of suppression.

Just like the person in front of me...

The brown-haired girl held the kunai in her hand tremblingly. Even though her heart was on the verge of collapse, she still did not run away and did not give up hope in her heart.

Sakura looked at the girl in front of her, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

Sacrifice?

The other party was originally Gaara's apprentice, but I didn't expect him to appear here.

Thinking of this, Sakura stretched out her hand towards her...

but……

A hand grabbed her wrist.

"That's it."

The tall one-armed man looked at the pink-haired girl with a serious expression.

The Fourth Kazekage Rosa.

Come on!

The girl named Ji, when she saw the village's Lord Kazekage personally coming to the battlefield, all the courage in her heart suddenly disappeared, and she almost collapsed on the ground in despair.

horrible……

very scary……

Is this really a human being?

She's the same age as me...

Even though I was just standing there, I was so scared that I dared not move...

"Ji, get out of here."

Obviously, the Sai behind Rosa is a well-known ninja in the Sand Village. Even Rosa, who is the Kazekage, knows him.

"Yes... yes, Master Kazekage..."

Matsuri stood up with difficulty and trembling, and left under Sakura's calm gaze.

"do you know?"

Sakura looked at Rosa in front of her.

"what?"

Luo Sha looked at the pink-haired girl in front of him with fear.

However, after just a few months of not seeing him, the strength of this pink-haired girl has undergone tremendous changes.

Rosa didn't remember that just a few months ago, the other party was able to intimidate the existence of a Chunin with just the murderous aura.

Obviously, Rosa was wrong. He misunderstood the suppression of a superior against an inferior in Sakura as the so-called murderous aura.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

"Among all the Kages, your strength is considered to be among the best."

Sakura's words seemed to confirm Rosa's strength.

"Hehe, is it still useful to say this now?"

"You will die in this war."

"Today next year will be your death anniversary."

Obviously Rosa was wrong again, Sakura's words were not a compliment to him.

"No, what I meant is that your strength ranks last among all the Kage."

Sakura looked at Rosa in front of her, denied his idea, and corrected him.

"You are insulting me!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Sha shouted angrily!

"I'm just stating a fact."

Sakura's eyes fell on her wrist. Up to this point, the other party still had no intention of letting go.

"Besides, you are doing something very dangerous now."

Cui Mou raised her eyes slightly, and the fierce look revealed at this moment made Luo Sha's hair stand on end!

Like a herbivorous rabbit, facing off against an adult Siberian tiger!
The almost fatal danger warning in an instant made Rosa instantly let go of Sakura's wrist and fly away quickly!
Sakura looked at Rosa with great interest, who seemed to be sweating coldly in just a moment, as if he was facing a formidable enemy.

"See, I told you."

"Your strength ranks last among all the Kage."
