The Byakugan Princess of Konoha

Kisame!

Itachi yelled and shoved Kisame away, using the force to dodge and retreat to the side.

However, although Itachi's reaction speed was fast, Hinata's Sage Chakra Ray was even faster.

Hinata had already calculated the direction of her attack using her Byakugan; this move would definitely not harm any ordinary people.

Moreover, Hinata aimed this attack at Kisame.

'boom--'

The chakra beam flashed and disappeared in an instant, shattering the room door and blasting a huge hole in the hotel wall.

In the corridor, specks of blood were visible.

Kisame crouched to the side in agony, his left hand clutching his right arm, his sleeve hanging empty; half of his arm had been blasted away by the chakra beam.

If Itachi hadn't pushed him, he might have really died here.

Itachi and Kisame looked into the room at the same time. Naruto was indeed in the room, but Hinata was also there, as was Sasuke.

"Uchiha Itachi!"

Sasuke roared, his right hand making a fist, his left hand supporting his right wrist, and the Chidori was completed in an instant.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak—"

Itachi Uchiha gave Sasuke a deep look, then turned to Kisame and shouted, "Retreat!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Itachi and Kisame simultaneously teleported away!

"Uchiha Itachi!"

Sasuke roared furiously, but at this point, Itachi Uchiha was unlikely to stay and fight any longer.

With such a commotion here, if Jiraiya returns, even if we can't keep him, Kisame will really die.

Having lost an arm, Kisame can no longer perform hand seals.

Samehada was also lost in Konoha, and Kisame was basically powerless to fight at this point.

Sasuke suddenly turned to look at Hinata, his eyes filled with madness, and roared, "Hinata!"

Hinata felt a pang of sympathy for Sasuke and said softly, "Come with me!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Hinata jumped out of the window, with Sasuke following closely behind.

Jiraiya appeared instantly, carrying a woman on his back. He glanced at the damaged inn, then threw the woman onto the bed. Without saying a word, he jumped out of the window and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Naruto: "..."

Can anyone tell me what exactly happened here?

Itachi, supporting Kisame, quickly escaped to the outskirts of the town. Glancing at Kisame, Itachi asked casually, "Are you alright?"

Kisame gritted his teeth and said hatefully, "I didn't expect that little girl I met in Konoha would also follow me here."

"Who exactly is she? The Hyuga clan has produced someone like her!"

Itachi Uchiha said calmly, "Her name is Hinata Hyuga."

Kisame's shark-like face contorted slightly, a murderous glint in his eyes, and he said coldly, "Hinata Hyuga? I'll remember her!"

Itachi Uchiha glanced at Kisame and kindly warned, "Next time you encounter her, you might die!"

Kisame didn't speak.

He was still confident in himself, and neither of his two encounters with Hinata gave him a chance to unleash his full potential.

The first time in Konoha, Kisame didn't dare to use a large-scale ninjutsu; the second time was even more unlucky, Kisame didn't even have a chance to make a move, and Hinata broke his arm directly.

To be honest, Kisame's two encounters with Hinata were incredibly unlucky.

The first time I lost Samehada, the second time I lost my arm.

The third time could really cost me my life.

However, Kisame wasn't too worried, since Kakuzu was still in the organization, and there was still hope that his arm could be healed.

Itachi Uchiha said in a deep voice, "She is a true genius. At the age of twelve, she has already injured you like this. If she were a few years older..."

Kisame fell silent upon hearing this.

He originally thought Hinata was like the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, a dwarf who would never grow up, but he didn't expect her to actually be a little girl.

That's a bit scary.

Forget it, I'll just pretend I didn't say anything!

Who hit me?

I have face blindness and a bad memory!

Uchiha Itachi suddenly turned around and glanced back. Kisame, seeing this, also turned around and glanced back.

"They're coming after us! And... Jiraiya is with us too."

As soon as he finished speaking, Itachi Uchiha suddenly accelerated.

"Whoosh~ Whoosh~"

Hinata and Sasuke chased after Itachi relentlessly, and in order to catch up with Itachi Uchiha as soon as possible, Sasuke used lightning-style chakra to stimulate his cells.

He did increase his speed, but he was so exhausted he was about to collapse.

Hinata asked with some concern, "Hey! Sasuke! Are you alright?"

"Whoosh-"

Sasuke was so focused on chasing after the enemy that he was covered in sweat, panting heavily, and unable to utter a complete sentence.

Hinata: "..."

Forget it, let's just wait until he collapses from exhaustion.

After chasing for nearly twenty minutes, Sasuke stepped on a tree trunk, lost his balance, and fell straight down from the tree.

"This is really a headache!"

Hinata sighed helplessly, then scooped up Sasuke in her arms and placed him aside, sitting down against a tree trunk.

Sasuke had completely lost his will, and there were still specks of water glistening on his eyelashes.

Since the Uchiha clan was massacred when he was seven years old, Sasuke has almost never cried.

He must have been feeling utterly frustrated by his own powerlessness!

Let alone fight Itachi, we can't even catch up with him now, so how can we talk about fighting?

"Phew! I finally caught up with you guys. You guys were so fast!"

Jiraiya appeared in a flash, glanced at Sasuke first, and then asked Hinata, "Little girl, what happened?"

"Hey! You lecherous immortal!"

Hinata greeted them and then explained, "Don't you know about the Akatsuki? Itachi and Kisame came to Konoha to investigate Naruto, and then they followed us. Sasuke wanted to get revenge on Itachi, so he dragged me along to catch up with them!"

Jiraiya asked, "You guys were just fighting?"

"I don't think so!"

Hinata wasn't sure if what she just did counted as a fight; it was probably more like a sneak attack!

However, for ninjas, surprise attacks are the true way to fight.

After Hinata explained the whole process, Jiraiya nodded solemnly.

Akatsuki has indeed begun gathering information on the Tailed Beasts.

Jiraiya took this organization, composed entirely of S-rank rogue ninja, very seriously.

The fact that the Akatsuki organization had set its sights on the Tailed Beasts made Jiraiya even more wary.

Through his investigation of Orochimaru, Jiraiya discovered that Orochimaru actually harbored some fear towards the Akatsuki organization.

Orochimaru killed the Fourth Kazekage first, then the Third Hokage, offending two major ninja villages in succession, yet he never backed down.

Orochimaru, however, was extremely wary of the Akatsuki organization.

Jiraiya knew who Orochimaru was, and through understanding Orochimaru, he knew just how terrifying the Akatsuki organization was.

Chapter 112 Between Naruto and Sasuke...

They carried Sasuke back to the hotel. Naruto was sitting on the bed, pouting, arms crossed, looking very unhappy.

Ah Kai stood to the side, scratching his head from time to time.

Kakashi sat by the window, engrossed in reading "Icha Icha Paradise".

"Yo! Kakashi-sensei, Guy-sensei! What brings you here?"

Kakashi looked up and glanced at Sasuke on Jiraiya's back, sighing inwardly, "None of my three disciples are easy to deal with."

Jiraiya put Sasuke down and said calmly, "You've come at the right time. Please take Sasuke back with you."

Naruto ran over, looked at the unconscious Sasuke, and asked with concern, "What happened to Sasuke?"

Hinata plopped down on the bed and said weakly, "Sasuke just fainted from exhaustion. Don't worry, he's not hurt."

Ugh! I ordered the meatballs from the meatball shop!

I wonder if it will all be cold by the time I go back now!

Kakashi glanced at Sasuke. Although Sasuke's body was not injured, his heart was already scarred.

After teaching Sasuke Chidori, Kakashi truly regarded Sasuke as his successor.

Geniuses like Kakashi naturally admire gifted young people because they see a reflection of their own youth in them.

Even an idiot like Jiraiya would like an idiot like Naruto.

Jiraiya looked around a few times and then said, "We can't stay here anymore. We need to find another place."

"Kakashi, Guy! You two take Sasuke back first!"
