I am the most popular character in Naruto!

"Put me down!"

The pink life force on Qianqiu's body suddenly burst forth, and the huge impact knocked Mumu Gongdao aside.

Because of that smile, Qianqiu made up her mind.

Tsunade, I will save you, even if it costs me everything!

In an instant, the pink life force trembled rapidly, and then completely merged into Qianqiu's body.

The next moment, Qianqiu's gaze fell silent, as if she had fallen into absolute calm. For some reason, wave after wave of battle memories flooded into her mind.

"what?!"

Overwhelmed by the pink vitality, Kōdō tumbled and fell to the ground beside Chiaki, losing his balance.

swish swish

The puppeteers of Sunagakure wouldn't let this opportunity pass by; the puppets pounced on the two of them, their cold glints gleaming.

"be careful!"

Mokumu Kōdō tried to form hand seals to release a ninjutsu to protect Chiaki, but Chiaki glanced coldly at the puppets and grabbed Mokumu Kōdō.

"Water escape! Water formation wall!"

Her hands moved swiftly, forming hand seals, and a water barrier appeared instantly. The speed at which it was released left even the Jonin, Mokumo Kōdō, speechless.

"This...this..."

The protective shield formed by the water flow blocked the puppets' attack, but since Chiaki had not systematically studied the form and nature transformation of chakra, the water barrier's defense was not strong and was still breached by the puppets' attacks.

However, it only delayed the puppets for a short while, which was enough for Qianqiu.

"Earth Escape! Earth Current City Wall!"

With a swift hand seal, Qianqiu placed both hands directly on the ground.

She eventually learned the ninjutsu that she had asked Jiraiya for.

Rumble

The massive city wall rapidly took shape with the support of Chiaki's extraordinary chakra, forcefully lifting her and Mokumu Kōdō into the air.

"Wow……"

Mokumu Kōdō was terrified. "This guy's a Chunin?!"

Is this what you call a Chunin?

The Earth Flow Wall technique requires an enormous amount of chakra, making it a ninjutsu that even a Jonin wouldn't dare to use lightly. Therefore, Mokumo Kōdō did not learn this ninjutsu.

Qianqiu, a delicate young girl, performed this without batting an eye, and even seemed to have energy left to spare.

That's way too terrifying.

"Fireball! Ignite the entire forest!"

Qianqiu turned around coldly and gave the order to the somewhat dazed Mumu Gongdao.

"oh oh……"

For a moment, Mumu Gongdao noticed a hint of coldness on Qianqiu's slightly charming face.

He quickly formed hand seals and unleashed a powerful fireball at the forest below.

Qianqiu also unleashed her own Fireball, but it was ultimately too ordinary, and she couldn't quickly ignite the forest beneath the walls of Tuliu City.

"Teach me a more advanced Fire Release technique."

"Set the entire forest ablaze to eliminate the puppeteers' terrain advantage, and at the same time send a distress signal to Konoha!"

Qianqiu stomped her foot in annoyance. Even though she suddenly had a lot of battle memories in her mind, she still couldn't do the things she didn't know.

She shouted at Mokumo Kōdō, "Signal Tsunade and Kato to come to the walls of Tsuchiryu Castle to defend and counterattack!"

At this moment, the puppeteers below also realized what was happening, but the earthen walls were simply too high, far exceeding the height of the forest. If they wanted to control their puppets to climb up, they themselves would inevitably be exposed on the earthen walls.

Unfortunately, the chakra threads have a limit to their length; if they're too far, controlling the puppet will be delayed.

"it is good!"

Mokumu Kōdō immediately nodded, understanding Chiaki's thinking, and quickly took out a whistle and blew it.

beep--

Kato Dan, who was covering his wound and dodging the attack, immediately raised his head when he heard the whistle, and his eyes lit up when he saw the earthen walls of the castle.

"Tsunade! Let's go! Up to the city wall!"

"Who unleashed the earth-flowing city wall? A thousand autumns?"

Tsunade was startled by the massive city wall, but quickly recovered and forced back the puppets before running towards Kato Dan.

Once they get onto that city wall, the four of them will have a better chance of survival!

On the city wall, the puppeteer will inevitably expose his identity. As long as Kato Dan's true form is protected, he can use his spirit transformation technique to carry out a rampage!

Soul attacks are terrifying; they are invisible and silent, making them impossible to defend against or stop.

"Want to go?"

"Claw Blade!"

Chiyo naturally noticed the problem and, while wondering who had used the Earth Flow Wall ninjutsu, rushed towards Tsunade.

If something unexpected happens to the younger brother, then it's up to the older sister to handle it!

To be honest, Chiyo wouldn't have patiently let the puppeteers go first if it weren't to ensure she could kill Tsunade.

Look at her temper! A Kage-level ninja has to have her subordinates wear down her stamina to fight an elite Jonin. Isn't that using a sledgehammer to crack a nut?

With a flick of her wrist, Chiyo sent dozens of kunai hurtling toward Tsunade. Each kunai was connected by chakra threads, and Chiyo controlled their direction entirely.

swish swish

Ding Ding Ding

Tsunade and Kato Dan simultaneously attacked and blocked the kunai, but they were also stopped as the kunai seemed to have a mind of their own and surrounded the two of them.

"Old woman! Don't you know how annoying you are?!"

Tsunade landed on a tree, glanced at the nearby earthen walls of the castle, and said angrily to Chiyo.

"Hmph, I also find you annoying. Why don't you just die quietly?"

Chiyo controlled the kunai, chattering incessantly while her mind raced.

Who exactly used the earthen ramparts?

The Jonin who was following Tsunade and the others?

No, that Jonin isn't that skilled. Could it be that little girl?

impossible……

Chiyo frowned. Most of Konoha's frontline ninjas had brief information, but the Sand Village had no information on Chiaki at all.

That's true. She's only been around for two months. How could anyone possibly have any information about her?

In any case, we must do everything in our power to stop Tsunade from using the Earth Flowing Wall. Even if we fail, we must kill Kato Dan!

Without Kato Dan, it would only be a matter of time before his puppet hundred-man squad trapped and killed the three above.

As for the timeframe, that was a matter for his younger brother, Ebizo.

There's a lot to learn about how to hold off Konoha's army and prevent them from coming to rescue Tsunade in time.

Chiyo, anyway, wouldn't understand.

"Do you think I'm the type to obediently die, you old woman!"

Tsunade stood with one hand on her hip, looking like a shrew, having completely forgotten that there was a man named Kato Dan who liked her behind her.

Well……

Even if she still remembers, Tsunade will probably still scold her, after all, she is such a real princess.

Chapter Sixty: Lies Without Kindness

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

"Fire Escape! Phoenix Immortal Fire Technique!"

"Fire Escape! Dragon Fire Technique!"

"Fire Release... gone?"

Standing on the wall of Tuliu Castle, Chiaki followed Mumu Kōdō and learned Fire Release ninjutsu one by one, but after learning only two, Mumu Kōdō said that he didn't know any more.

"You're so bad at this."

Chiaki looked at Mokumu Kōdō with disdain, "You call yourself proficient in Fire Release and Earth Release with this?"

Hula

A thick, large flame shot straight into the forest, instantly igniting it.

Mokumu Kōdō silently glanced at Chiaki. This flame was released by Chiaki. Although there was no nature change or form change of chakra, the amount of chakra output alone left Mokumu Kōdō speechless.

What are you saying?!

What's there to say!

The more I talk about it, the more sour it gets!

What are the typical promotion rules for ordinary people?

Genin lay the foundation, Chunin learn and apply their own ninjutsu, and learn chakra transformation techniques.

Upon reaching the Jonin level, one focuses on developing chakra nature transformation to enhance their ninjutsu.

Look, the fire jutsu used by the Wood Eye Sword is huge, extremely hot, and a bright red. It can directly ignite or even burn down an entire tree.

Isn't that impressive?

That's already pretty strong among Jonin!
