Chapter 73 The Curtain Falls

"it's over."

Seeing Chiyo's obvious decline, Dongfang Yao immediately stopped hesitating, appearing in front of her in a flash, and thrusting his long sword with the force of wind and thunder towards the back of Chiyo's neck.

"Pfft—"

'

The sharp blade sliced ​​through flesh, and blood splattered. But there was no smile on Dongfang Yao's face, because the body of the slain "Chiyo" quickly turned into a pile of sand and vanished.

"Sand clone? When?" Dongfang Yao was shocked and immediately felt something was wrong.

He instinctively tried to teleport away, but was surprised to find that he couldn't activate the Flying Thunder God Technique.

To be more precise, he was unable to use chakra.

Looking down, a mysterious pattern spread out beneath his feet—a sealing technique.

Sealing Technique: Lion's Roar.

A sealing technique that can draw sealing formulas on the ground or walls to instantly seal a ninja's chakra.

Not only that, but two ropes appeared out of nowhere in the ground beneath his feet, binding his ankles tightly.

"In the world of ninjas, chakra is everything. You probably can't use that troublesome Body Flicker Technique anymore." Chiyo, who was secretly observing, endured the sharp pain in her shoulder—the price she paid to lure Dongfang Yao into the trap—and manipulated all the remaining puppets to launch a lightning-fast attack on Dongfang Yao.

"Father" and "Mother" were puppets that Chiyo had specially prepared for her grandson. She hadn't originally planned to use them here, but the situation was urgent, and she couldn't afford to be sentimental.

"Clang clang one"

Two puppets extended weapons such as samurai swords and chainsaws, and slashed at Dongfang Yao.

"As expected, no ninja should be underestimated."

Faced with the sudden attack of the two puppets, Dongfang Yao remained calm.

He thought that after coming to the world of "Naruto" and learning a lot of skills, he could go anywhere in the world.

Especially after learning the Flying Thunder God Technique, he believed that he was now invincible.

But Chiyo taught him a vivid lesson through her actions: there are no invincible ninjutsu, only powerful people.

Minato Namikaze was able to establish such a great reputation in the ninja world not only because of his unparalleled speed, but more importantly because of his grasp of the opportunity, his calmness and decisiveness, and his swift reactions and responses.

All of this requires not only talent but also long-term combat experience.

Although Dongfang Yao has mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique thanks to his powerful talent, he still has a long way to go before he can truly master it.

For example, this time, Chiyo used herself as bait and with a simple sand clone, she directly sealed off a large number of his methods.

The puppet's timing and angle of attack were perfectly controlled, leaving him no room to dodge.

If he were truly just a native ninja, he would probably have no choice but to pray that he wasn't unlucky enough to survive such a relentless onslaught.

Fortunately, he was a time traveler, so he had plenty of strength and resources.

"Blade Storm" 6

As a faint chanting sounded, Chiyo saw a sword light that was dazzlingly brilliant.

"Hiss hiss hiss"

The two puppets she had placed high hopes on were powerless against Dongfang Yao's lightning-fast sword strikes. In an instant, they were cut into pieces, their limbs, torsos, and puppet mechanisms all reduced to rubble.

"What?"

Chiyo was shocked again. She had clearly sealed the other party's chakra, so why was this kid still able to use such a technique?

"No... there's no chakra fluctuation. This... this is a series of slashes unleashed purely from the physical body? This brat..."

"Is it even possible to do something like this?"

However, the shock only lasted for a moment, and she immediately made a decision.

"run!"

As long as the green hills remain, there's always hope. As long as she's alive, there's still a chance to turn things around.

She still had unfulfilled wishes and her beloved grandson had not been saved. How could she die here?

As for whether the village will blame them for this...

Chiyo responded with a chuckle.

Since the disappearance of the Third Kazekage, a powerful figure hailed as the strongest, Sunagakure has been greatly weakened in both strength and prestige. The reason why it can still contend with Konoha with its inferior forces is largely due to Chiyo's poison-making skills.

The endless stream of various toxins made it impossible for Konoha to defend against them, creating countless opportunities and victories for Sunagakure.

Moreover, as a veteran powerhouse of Sunagakure, Chiyo is not only incredibly strong herself, but also has a large following among medical corps and puppeteers. Countless ninjas have benefited from her kindness. The village's higher-ups want to cause trouble for Chiyo... they're afraid the village is living too well.

In the blink of an eye, Chiyo's figure had already rushed into the vast dense forest.

"Trying to run? Not so easy!"

Dongfang Yao snorted coldly and was about to give chase, but at that moment, other Sand Village ninjas arrived, including two Jonin.

"Wind Release: Pressure Damage"

"Wind Release: Kamaitachi"

He immediately unleashed a powerful Wind Release ninjutsu right in their face.

"Don't get in my way."

Dongfang Yao had already escaped the sealing range of the sealing technique, Lion's Roar, and his chakra had returned to normal. He instantly activated the Flying Thunder God Technique and appeared behind the two. He swung his longsword repeatedly and took the heads of the two Jonin.

Taking down the two raiders didn't take much time, but for someone like Chiyo who was burning all her strength to escape, it was enough time to run a considerable distance.

In the previous battles, Dongfang Yao had never had the opportunity to leave the Flying Thunder God mark on Chiyo. The cover of the dense jungle prevented Dongfang Yao from locking on with kunai, so he could only travel on foot.

To Dongfang Yao's dismay, many ninjas arrived and blocked Chiyo's escape route, numbering in the dozens.

The ninjas all remained calm: "If you want to catch up with Lady Chiyo, you'll have to step over my dead body."

Dongfang Yao has always been accommodating to such requests.

A minute later, when Dongfang Yao sealed the last Sand Village ninja's throat, Chiyo had already vanished.

Almost simultaneously, a loud bang came from the direction of the valley's exit. The valley passage, which had been sealed off by the Sand Ninja, was completely opened. A large group of Wind Release ninjas worked together to unleash a Wind Release ninjutsu of unprecedented scale, causing the poisonous gas sealed within the valley to dissipate rapidly.

"Mr. Yao, Lord Orochimaru requests that you treat the poisoned ninja as soon as possible," a Chunin rushed over and said urgently.

"Got it," Dongfang Yao replied, then clicked his tongue in annoyance as he watched Chiyo flee. "Tsk, you're lucky to be alive."

After saying that, he formed hand seals and used the Shadow Clone Technique.

"Bang bang bang—"

As wisps of white smoke rose, more than a dozen shadow clones appeared beside Dongfang Yao.

"Everyone, I'm counting on you."

"Haha, we're like family."

"That's right, we're all brothers, no need to be so polite."

"Let's go, let's go..."

A large group of shadow clones patted their chests and agreed, then vanished in a flash.
