Naruto: Countless versions of myself superimposed at the same time!

Thinking of this, Tsunade smiled.

"Alright, don't let your guard down."

“I know, teacher.”

Kiyohara nodded.

After Kiyohara left, the Konoha ninjas were cleaning up the mess.

The lake several kilometers away was also constantly disappearing, leaving only a portion of the water that Qingyuan had diverted from the stream.

"Continue to teach me Soft Fist."

Qingyuan arrived at a deserted place.

As soon as he finished speaking, Hyuga Kiyohara's spirit floated out.

With Hyuga Kiyohara's spirit possessing him, Kiyohara's progress in mastering Gentle Fist was very rapid.

"Yes, today I'll teach you the 'Gentle Fist Technique: Eight Trigrams Thirty-Two Palms'."

Hinata Kiyohara said.

This palm technique also starts with two palms, then progresses to four, eight, sixteen, thirty-two, and sixty-four palms.

Those who split up the family can only learn the thirty-two palm techniques.

"it is good."

Kiyohara nodded and then began his cultivation.

He learned very quickly, and Kiyohara had also mastered the "Bagua Empty Palm".

He simply planned to first learn all the inherited Soft Fist techniques, so that he could gain a deeper understanding of Soft Fist.

If you have a natural talent for Soft Fist, you can actually keep pushing forward indefinitely.

Hyuga Neji comprehended sixty-four palms from the thirty-two palms, and then comprehended the "Eight Trigrams One Hundred and Twenty-Eight Palms," which can be said to be an astonishing talent.

…………

On the other side.

"Obito, I heard Kiyohara defeated another Jinchuriki. Speaking of which, would it have been better if Kiyohara had been 'Madara' instead?"

He said to Obito with a grin.

White Zetsu's intelligence network was agile, and they learned of the information from that side immediately.

"Humph."

Obito snorted coldly.

Madara's plan was to have him disguise himself as "Madara" to collect the nine tailed beasts and obtain the Ten-Tails.

But so far, he hasn't made contact with any of the jinchūriki.

"I need to take down Mist Shadow first before I have time to deal with those tailed beasts."

Obito began to speak.

He planned to use Wuyin as a breeding ground for Xiao.

The ideological differences between Nagato and Yahiko have grown so great that they may eventually follow Obito.

Obito also admired Black Zetsu for this.

He didn't know how Black Zetsu could be so persuasive.

Chapter 268 Scrubbing Kurenai's Back

However, Obito also developed a sense of wariness towards Black Zetsu.

This guy is too good at bewitching people; you can easily fall for his tricks without even realizing it.

Ultimately, this is Madara's "incarnation of will".

"Is that so, Obito?"

Hei Jue remained noncommittal.

Although he said that, he himself still had a very high opinion of Obito.

The reason is simple: the eye technique "Kamui" is something that even "Flying Thunder God Technique" cannot compare to.

The fact that it can ignore all ninjutsu and taijutsu attacks is astonishing enough.

Obito glanced at Black Zetsu, said nothing more, and slowly disappeared into the space.

…………

Rock Hidden Village, Earth Shadow Office.

Onoki had a gloomy face as he looked at the old man in front of him.

Old Zi's left sleeve was empty.

For a ninja, losing an arm would have a very significant impact.

The efficiency of hand seals will be much lower than that of others.

"Didn't you find the severed arm?"

Onoki asked.

"I didn't have time to look for it, otherwise I was afraid I wouldn't be able to leave."

Old Zi shook his head.

Even the stubborn man had to admit that Kiyohara was very strong; Kiyohara's water-style techniques almost completely countered him.

"I am a Jinchūriki, so even if I lose an arm, I am still better off than a normal ninja."

As he spoke, crimson tailed beast chakra slowly spread from the severed part of Old Purple's body, gradually condensing into an illusory chakra arm.

"This way you can also form hand seals."

Old Zi continued.

However, this method is ultimately not as good as having your own natural arm.

"Is Kiyohara really that strong?"

Onoki's furrowed brows.

He was very curious about this question.

Because he had never witnessed the Battle of Kiyohara.

Old Zi lowered his head and gritted his teeth, saying:

"That brat from Konoha has a huge amount of chakra... like a Senju clan ninja."

Old Zi shook his head.

Upon hearing this, Onoki frowned.

This brat with Uchiha blood reminded him of the shadows from decades ago.

That man was just as outrageous.

"That brat used water magic to create a lake, which completely extinguished my sea of ​​lava."

Old Purple dispersed the chakra in his arm, and his sleeves hung down empty again.

Several high-ranking members of the Rock Recluse Sect stood on both sides, looking at each other.

After a long silence, one of them spoke:

"Lord Tsuchikage, should we... send the Five-Tails Jinchuriki to give it a try?"

After a moment of contemplation, Onoki spoke:

"...That's enough."

"Is that enough?"

The high-ranking official was taken aback.

"Is that all? The yellow earth is still in their hands, and Lao Zi has lost an arm."

"Then what do you suggest we do?"

Onoki looked at the high-ranking member of the Hidden Rock Sect.

"Continue to reinforce? Our supply lines have long been cut off. Don't you know how many ninja we've lost? If we keep fighting, what will be left of Iwagakure?"

He landed back on the ground, put his hands behind his back, and walked to the map.

"Contact Konoha and test their attitude."

Onoki Road.

"Let's see if they... are willing to stop the war."

Silence fell over the office.

Everyone knows what this means.

Rock Hidden Village must bow its head.

…………

Konohagakure (Hidden Leaf Village), Hokage Building.

Hiruzen Sarutobi sat behind his large desk, his pipe emitting wisps of white smoke.

A battle report that had just been delivered was spread out on the table, covered with densely written text.

But they are all telling the story of the same event.

"The Four-Tails Jinchuriki has lost an arm... Iwagakure has taken the initiative to retreat..."

He muttered to himself, the smile on his lips impossible to suppress.

"well."

Koharu and Homura, sitting on either side of each other in the turntable, exchanged a glance.

"Hiruzen."

When Xiaochun opened her mouth after changing rooms, there was a hint of hesitation in her voice.

"Kiyohara did indeed make a great contribution this time, but have you considered that an Uchiha with such a high level of prestige might...?"

She paused, then didn't continue.

But the meaning is already quite clear.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's brow furrowed slightly.

Before I could even speak, the office door was pushed open.

Danzo Shimura strode in, his one eye sweeping over the people present before finally settling on Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Higanbana, I heard Kiyohara has done another good deed?"

His voice was hoarse, filled with suppressed anger.

"An Uchiha who cut down the Mizukage, captured the Tsuchikage's son, and severed the arm of the Four-Tails Jinchuriki... Do you think that's normal?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi took a drag of his cigarette and slowly exhaled.

"Isn't that abnormal?"

"Of course it's abnormal!"

Danzo Shimura walked to the desk and placed his hands on the surface.

"Have you forgotten Tobirama-sensei's claim? The Uchiha clan is inherently evil!"

Danzo!

Mitokado suddenly spoke.

His brows were furrowed, and his voice carried a hint of dissatisfaction.
