Naruto: Learn the Substitution Jutsu and use it to create Star Platinum?

The sound was clear.

"Hidden in the loess soil, that's correct."

In the distance, Lin Yi, wearing a Platinum Star brand telescope, slightly raised the corner of his mouth.

interesting.

But it's a pity...

Those who resemble me will die.

Chapter 113 Clouds follow the dragon, wind follows the tiger.

Flesh and blood flew everywhere.

The Hidden Stone Village had just released its Earth Release technique when it was instantly overwhelmed by countless bolts of lightning, and then its body exploded.

In the center of the battlefield.

The fourth-generation Ai charged toward that clod of earth once again.

"Thunder level!"

The loess soil instantly slammed into the ground.

Having fought against the fourth generation of Ai for so long, he has developed a certain degree of foresight.

Countless rocks, like sharp spikes, spread and surged towards the fourth generation of Ai.

However, under the dazzling thunder, these soil spikes were utterly destroyed.

Huang Tu certainly didn't expect this move to hinder the opponent.

He first had to use these stalagmites to absorb the residual lightning on the Ai hand knife.

Then he suddenly brought his arms together.

A solid and heavy earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of protective armor) arm guard, connected to a huge shield, stood blocking the way.

The lightning blade flashed past.

Dirt flew up, and the rock shield instantly cracked in two.

Ai's figure continued to thrust, thrust.

But the speed slowed down, and eventually, another drop of blood appeared on the fingertip.

He kept cutting down to Huang Tu's arms.

They broke through the earth stalks, the rock shields, and the arm guards.

But... they could only cut down the fully prepared yellow earthen arms.

Both being at the Shadow level, Huang Tu is not much weaker than Ai in terms of raw strength.

The reason he seemed to be getting beaten up before wasn't just because of the advantage of chakra attributes.

In terms of fighting style, he was also like a target, easily countered by the speed and power-type ninja, the Fourth Hokage A.

Now, as one of the strongest members of Iwagakure besides Onoki, Huang Tu's combat wisdom goes without saying.

Keeping up with Ai's movements is undoubtedly a pipe dream, but similarly, even Ai couldn't wear down Huang Tu, who was focused on defense, in a short time.

But Ai had to face the loess soil.

Because once he goes to clear out other hidden rocks, Huangtu, as a "rock" fortress, has a clearing ability that Ai can't match by cutting a straight line once.

On the other side, the three tailed beasts also began to run out of energy.

Tailed beast jinchūriki: The tailed beast is the core of power, but how much power it can exert depends on the strength of the jinchūriki.

Of the three of them, one is the Eight-Tails and the perfect Jinchūriki, but Killer Bee is too young. Even if the Eight-Tails is willing or even actively gives him power, Killer Bee cannot control it for long, let alone fully control it.

While there are two individuals, the Four-Tails and the Five-Tails, both of whom are well-established, they cannot be considered perfect Jinchuriki, as the tailed beasts within them do not willingly grant them power.

This has led to this stalemate.

Now they've shifted from competing on strength to competing on endurance.

The blood stained the earth red and emitted a foul odor under the scorching sun.

"Chiyo-sama, do we...do we still need to do this?"

In the distance, the Sand Village ninja who had reached the target location asked Chiyo in a trembling voice.

They might not be able to see the specific situation clearly, but those three tailed beasts have been fighting for more than ten minutes since they arrived.

The tailed beasts fought for more than ten minutes, which means that the war had been going on for at least ten minutes.

"open."

Chiyo closed her eyes, a bitter smile on her lips. If she still hadn't sensed Konoha's scheme by now, then all these years of her life would have been wasted.

Actually, it wasn't until now that she realized it was the two tailed beasts from Iwagakure that were holding back the Eight-Tails of Kumogakure, not the Nine-Tails of Konoha.

However, she didn't want to think about it, nor did she dare to.

The image of the dragon reappeared in my mind once again.

This is hardly an attempt to help Sunagakure protect Kumogakure.

This is an attempt to subdue all three kingdoms in one fell swoop.

The Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Stone Village, who had been recuperating during the Second Shinobi World War, were both severely injured in this battle.

The Sand Village, which had just caught its breath, was now being blamed for poisoning two countries.

As for Konoha... all three major neighboring countries of the Land of Fire suffered heavy losses, while Konoha only lost a small battle in the Land of Hot Springs and forced the ninjas of the Land of Grass to retreat.

In this way, they could manipulate the three great ninja villages at will.

What audacity!

What a vicious plan!

What a cruel heart!

"Lady Chiyo, if we do this, I'm afraid Kumogakure and Iwagakure might..."

The Sand Villager beside him was still hesitating; naturally, he couldn't see as far ahead as Chiyo.

But he also knew the risks Sunagakure would face by poisoning the two most ambitious countries in the world and reaping their benefits.

"Hehehe, foolish."

Chiyo suddenly smacked him on the head.

Lin Yi was right next to them when the poison trap was set.

If you don't move, can't Konoha move?

In the end, won't it still fall on Sunagakure's shoulders?

Moreover, betraying Konoha at this time will result in Sunagakure facing retaliation from more than just Iwa and Kumo villages.

Chiyo had no doubt that Lin Yi was somewhere right now, watching them with amusement.

And... hoping they really won't make a move before the deadline.

She didn't dare to gamble.

Now, Sunagakure only has one path left.

Or rather, from the moment Lin Yi arrived in the village alone, riding a dragon to force them to agree, they only had one path left.

That is to stick with Konoha to the bitter end, hoping that Iwagakure and Kumogakure will lend a hand when they settle scores.

Because Chiyo understood.

Konoha cannot have a Sand Village member who betrays them.

But Konoha also doesn't want a Sunagakure to disappear.

For Konoha, a Sunagakure village that's half-dead... is a good Sunagakure village.

"Alright, give me the medium!"

Chiyo saw that the Sand Village Jonin in front of her was still hesitating, so she immediately snatched it away.

"burst!"

In the center of the battlefield.

A faint rumbling sound rang out.

"Ok?"

Ai and Huangtu paused simultaneously and exchanged a glance.

Open your mouth at the same time.

"What did you do?"

"What did you do?"

The two were taken aback again.

"Not from your Cloud Village?"

"Not from Iwagakure?"

In the distance, Lin Yi, possessed by the Platinum Star, smiled slightly.

"pity."

But it doesn’t matter.

If Sunagakure really dares not to do it, then he will help them save face.

Then let the Land of Wind become "Loulan," which belongs to the Land of Fire.

If the other party is smart, then he naturally wouldn't mind keeping a Sunagakure village that's been tarnished and is barely surviving.

"Minato, get ready."

Minato Namikaze nodded and was the first to pick up a bottle of medicine and drink it.

White Fang and the three Sannin also followed suit.
