Shared talent: Please, countless versions of me!

Sakura is determined to defy fate and defeat Naruto!

Fortunately, Naruto was unaware of these thoughts, otherwise he would have definitely gone to the Hyuga clan to propose marriage the next day.

After all, under the tutelage of Minato and Kushina, Naruto is an absolute pure love enthusiast!

Moreover, he firmly believed that he and Hinata would become another legendary couple after Minato and Kushina!

Naruto had followed Queen Sara for a while and knew where her palace was.

The three of them successfully arrived near Sarah's bedroom.

At this moment, Sarah stood at the window in a daze. Although she wasn't very bright, she had noticed something was amiss during this time.

"Sigh~ Ever since the dragon vein started to fluctuate, I've had this uneasy feeling that something big is about to happen..."

Looking at the clouds in the sky, Sarah decided to go back to the Dragon Vein to check on the situation!

By the way, lower the power of the dragon vein a bit. Its output has been too high in recent years; Sarah is worried it might not be able to handle it.

Naruto and his two companions had been secretly following Sara, and they hadn't missed a single person she encountered on the way.

Finally, a fat man with a big head and big ears appeared in front of Sarah.

Unlike the previous people, this fat man's gaze towards Sarah held a different kind of charm!

It's like looking at your own pet!

"Got you!"

Naruto and Sasuke acted instantly, bursting out of the shadows and each kicking the fat man in the face!

"Ahhh!"

Rumble!

After a series of pig-like screams, the building's walls shattered, and a figure emerged from the smoke, standing steadily on the exterior wall of another building.

Naruto and Sasuke stood on the broken wall and said to the fat man in the distance, "Centipede, it hasn't been that long since we last met, how did you become such a grotesque figure?"

"Could it be that you've been beaten up too much since you came here, and your skin is swollen from all the beatings?" Sasuke mocked.

Upon hearing their sarcasm, Centipede's face turned ashen!

He's been in this era for eight years! Eight years! Do you know how he's spent those eight years?!

Except for the first two months when he lived cautiously, he lived the life of a superior person the rest of the time!

If it weren't for the fact that this place is so resource-poor, he would change the girl who warms his bed every day!

Today, Centipede has almost forgotten how humble it once was.

"Boy, didn't your parents teach you how to talk to the strong?" Centipede glared at the two men with a sinister look, and with a flick of his hands, the entire Loulan seemed to disintegrate in an instant!

Boom! !

The roar of the mechanical assembly echoed throughout Loulan, and Zhang Shan and his group noticed the commotion and turned their attention to it.

Half of the city was transformed into puppet materials, manipulated by almost infinite chakra, and assembled into a giant, bulging war chariot!

Queen Sarah was also caught up in the giant chariot by the centipede and imprisoned in the deepest part.

Then, the voice of the centipede madman resounded throughout the entire Loulan!

"Hahaha! I've long heard that Loulan suffered a devastating disaster in its early years, and was only saved by an unknown powerful figure, which allowed it to survive. I never imagined that I was the one who almost destroyed Loulan. So, you three little kids wouldn't happen to be the ones who stopped me, would you?"

On the ground, Naruto and Sasuke looked at the enormous chariot in front of them, which resembled a hill, without any change in their expressions.

"Just because you've gotten bigger makes you so arrogant?" Sasuke sneered, placing his hand on the Kusanagi sword and coldly saying, "Naruto! This time, we're going all out!"

"Oh!" Naruto clapped his hands, and a white circular mark instantly appeared on his forehead.

At the same time, a black crescent moon appeared on Sasuke's forehead!

"Celestial Technique, Second Stage! Unleash!"

Rumble!

The amount of chakra on the two of them instantly increased exponentially, and the golden and purple chakra formed a terrifying storm, forcibly pushing the huge chariot in front of them several meters away!

"What! How could you possibly have such a massive amount of chakra?! You're not Jinchūriki!" Centipede's panicked voice rang out, and the giant chariot seemed to sense its master's fear, trembling incessantly.

"Jinchūriki? That is indeed a more convenient shortcut, but the gap between Kurama and other tailed beasts is too great, so we did not become jinchūriki. Instead, we chose to cultivate immortality on our own and developed this second stage based on the Hundred Healings Technique, which can increase our strength twentyfold in a short period of time!"

Naruto's calm words struck like a thunderbolt, deeply resonating in Hyakuzoku's mind.

"A twenty-fold increase in a short time! And it's the legendary cultivation system developed by that person?!"

At this moment, the long-dormant jealousy in Baizu's heart was reignited!

He cursed, "You lucky little brats! You were born to use resources that I could never access in my entire life! And me? All I wanted was a higher level of puppetry! And I was labeled a rogue ninja! I live in constant fear every day!"

Sasuke impatiently picked at his ear and said, "I'm not going to argue with you. We're on opposite sides now, so any words are meaningless! Only those with strong fists have the right to speak!"

"Alright, alright! You've said too much! You know what? After eight years in this timeline, I've finally realized how amazing it can be to be human!"

"I am second only to the emperor! With just a word from me, I can decide the life and death of those people. Isn't that more satisfying than being a ninja?!"

Hearing the sound of the centipede, Zhang Shan looked around and thought to himself, "The Loulan people don't even number three hundred, so how come you're above ten thousand?"

At this moment, Sasuke and Naruto had completed all their preparations. The two extended their fists and touched them together, and a golden giant rose from the ground!

As the giant grew taller, pieces of purple armor appeared one after another!

"Enough with the small talk. Now, let's see the strength of your, or rather, the strength of your dragon vein!"

"Come on! You won't be disappointed!"

Seeing that the two sides were about to go to war, Zhang Shan patted the rope tree and said, "Go and save the residents of Loulan, and take them away from this country for the time being."

"Eh!! Okay..."

Rope Tree was somewhat reluctant, after all, he also wanted to have a go at the giant puppet created by Centipede.

But considering that the residents would lose their lives, Rope Tree clapped his hands together, and vines appeared to begin rescuing people.

Chapter 209 Centipede, Invincible

"Super Missile!"

With a loud roar, the massive chariot's chest burst open with countless dark holes!

Then, a barrage of missiles flew out of the hole and struck Naruto and Sasuke's Susanoo armor in the blink of an eye!

Boom boom boom!

The billowing black smoke from the missile explosion blocked out a patch of sky.

The resulting tremors caused the entire Loulan to shake violently, and the buildings that were not controlled by the centipede swayed from side to side and collapsed in an instant!

Fortunately, Rope Tree had already saved everyone; otherwise, Loulan could have been declared extinct just now.

Shuimen's figure weaved through the collapsed buildings, heading straight for the dragon vein itself.

After some thought, Minato realized that since both sides had been transported here by the dragon vein, if he closed the dragon vein, wouldn't he be able to send them back?

Zhang Shan was surprised by Shuimen's idea.

But he quickly realized what was happening.

All three of them, including Naruto and the Centipede, were covered with a layer of dragon vein chakra.

Because the entire Loulan was filled with the chakra of the dragon veins, Zhang Shan did not notice this at first.

It wasn't until Minato pointed it out that he belatedly realized that as long as the dragon vein was shut down, the source of power for the four people could be cut off. Without the protection of the dragon vein's power, these time travelers would be instantly corrected!

This is why, in the original story, after Minato closed the Dragon Vein, Naruto and the others were teleported back.

However, the power of the dragon vein permeates the streets and alleys of Loulan, making it somewhat difficult to find the source of the dragon vein.

"It seems that, for some reason, the Centipede has become even more frantic in its use of the dragon vein's power," Zhang Shan thought to himself.

The building beneath his feet was teetering on the brink of collapse, so Zhang Shan quickly used earth magic to reinforce it, preventing it from collapsing like the other buildings.

Wooden dragons weaved through the dust, with small wooden houses on their backs, where the inhabitants of Loulan lived.

After Rope Tree moved all these people outside Loulan, his gaze turned to the two enormous creatures that were fighting.

"These two juniors are quite strong! This chakra giant is almost as big as my little wooden doll!"

“Yes, their abilities would place them in the fourth tier even in the future,” Zhang Shan nodded in agreement.

Upon hearing this, Kakashi, who was standing beside him, was filled with doubt in his previously blank gaze.

"This? The fourth tier?... Huh?"

Ignoring the little boy's questions, the battle between Naruto, Sasuke, and the Centipede had reached its climax.

After the centipede's missiles nearly destroyed the entire Loulan, Naruto and Sasuke also began to exert their strength.

A flash of purple light appeared in the giant's hand, and a long purple sword appeared in his palm.

"Not enough!" Sasuke whispered, "Kagoto-no-Mikoto!"

call!

Black flames suddenly ignited on the purple longsword, the intense heat seemingly burning a hole in the space itself!

After unleashing this attack, Sasuke's eyes were streaked with red tears of blood.

However, this injury is nothing to worry about given his current physical condition!

With the massive boost from Sage Chakra, he can be healed instantly!

Naruto laughed, "The temperature has risen quite a bit again! But, do we really need to enchant it to deal with this kind of guy?"

With that, Naruto swung his long sword and slashed at the giant chariot!

Under the overwhelming power of the two, the giant chariot was directly split in two!

Upon seeing the situation inside the chariot, Sasuke frowned: "Couldn't you have aimed carefully before you attacked?"

The split section contained only a large number of puppets; the centipede was nowhere to be seen.

Naruto scratched his head and laughed, "Sorry, sorry! It was just a small mistake. I'll definitely finish him off with the next strike!"

"Hmph! Next time you try to split the air, it'll be my turn!"
