"It's about time, we should get involved!"
Chapter 18 Uchiha Yoriichi makes a move, using the True Several Thousand Hands to overwhelm Tsunade!
The acrid smell from the violent explosion at Konoha Hospital had not yet completely dissipated. Tsunade, having broken free of her restraints, activated the Hundred Healings Seal to heal herself while repelling wave after wave of attacks from Root members.
At this moment, Tsunade's fingers were covered in blood. Although as one of the Legendary Sannin, attacking the Root's minions was not difficult, but there were too many of them.
"Huff huff..." Tsunade breathed slowly, trying to keep her chakra channels open to speed up the recovery of her strength and wounds. Ryuma's self-destruction had greatly damaged her body, almost threatening her life. To fully recover, she needed to continue using the Hundred Healings Technique for another half hour!
Tsunade's face regained its aged appearance, startling Shizune and the Konoha doctors behind her.
"Lady Tsunade, is it because you're running out of chakra?" Shizune asked, embarrassed.
"Ha!" Tsunade swung her fist with all her might, and the Hundred Healing Fist slammed into a Root speed-type fighter who was rushing forward. Blood splattered everywhere, and under the moonlight, the Root member who was hit turned into a dried-out cream puff and became shriveled.
"Come on! Come on! This isn't over yet!" Tsunade's momentum grew stronger with each setback. Even though her injuries were severe, the speed at which she recovered from them had already outpaced her energy expenditure thanks to the use of the Hundred Healings Technique.
Tsunade's lips curled up slightly, her smooth lips parted in a wide smile. In fact, it had been a long time since she had fought like this.
Since leaving Konoha, I've mostly lost money gambling, taken on missions to earn money, and then continued gambling. Most of the opponents I've encountered haven't been strong. It's been a long time since I've had a fight of this intensity.
The howling wind echoed and brushed against Tsunade's forehead, the cool breeze gradually relaxing her mind. Just then, a ghostly figure flashed across the sky, a black trench coat fluttering in the wind, and a long sword slashed through the air, falling with a sharp whistle!
"Shh!"
Tsunade's eyes widened instantly, and she slightly dodged, but the longsword beat her to it, grazing her chest and slashing down hard, moving as fast as a silver thread and leaving a trail of blood.
Yoriichi raised his head slightly, a murderous intent appearing in his eyes, like a ferocious beast poised to pounce on its prey.
Yoriichi raised the Kusanagi sword, aiming it at Tsunade who was stunned, and then launched a swift attack.
"Bang!" Tsunade panicked and instantly activated the Hundred Healings Technique to its maximum, her body jolting violently! The powerful shockwave sent Yoriichi flying, stopping his further attack.
Yoriichi made a balancing move in the air, then rolled and landed smoothly with a slight bend. His longsword stood upright on the ground, and the flames that had been ignited by the attack were blown away by the wind.
"You killed Aburame Ryoma?" Yorimitsu looked at Tsunade with eyes full of resentment. He had indeed calculated that there would be unnecessary casualties in this battle, but he never expected that the Sannin of Konoha would appear in the Konoha Hospital area, which was originally the safest place, and kill Aburame Ryoma.
The battle just now happened in the blink of an eye. Not only did everyone on Tsunade's side look at Yoriichi with extremely shocked eyes, but even the Root organization was slightly stunned.
"Lord Kenshin, it's her!" a Root member echoed, his face contorted with rage. "She killed Lord Ryoma!"
Tsunade gasped for breath, staring at the pierced wound on her chest, her eyes filled with shock. Then she looked warily at Yoriichi, her lips slightly pursed.
Who are you?!
"Who am I?" Yoriichi smiled slightly. "I am the leader of Root, here to take your life!"
The flames that ignited at the edge of Yoriichi's Kusanagi sword transformed into a nimble fire serpent, which instantly opened its blood-red maw and burst forth from the blade, bringing a large expanse of intense heat to Tsunade's feet.
"Sage Chakra?" Tsunade's eyes widened, and she bit down hard with her thumb, drawing blood as she quickly summoned it on the ground.
The slug emerged from the ground once more, and Tsunade, standing atop the giant slug, commanded:
"Expelle corrosive strong acid!"
"Yes, Lady Tsunade!" The slug's ethereal voice silently responded to Tsunade, and it immediately sprayed out a huge amount of acidic liquid from its mouth.
The fire serpent was blocked by the acid, its speed gradually slowed down until it disappeared, and Tsunade smiled slightly.
Is this Kenshin all there is to him? He's just a bit faster.
"It's over!" one of the Root members couldn't help but exclaim, his expression turning extremely uneasy. Sure enough, the next second, Tsunade spoke again.
"Slug, unleash your corrosive acid again! This time, cover everyone!"
"Yes! Lady Tsunade!"
Immediately after the command ended, the corrosive liquid was sprayed from the slug's mouth, beginning to cover a large area of the root tissue members.
"Lord Kenshin..." Some members of the Root organization looked at the strong acid falling from the sky, and a sense of despair rose in their hearts.
"It's nothing." Yoriichi looked at Tsunade with a cold expression, while Tsunade looked at Yoriichi with a mysterious smile.
"Now let's see what you do. Even if you can dodge, do you think you can stop all this acid?"
"Hmph." Kenshin plunged the Kusanagi sword into the ground, his hands rapidly forming hand seals until the roots buried deep in the ground began to slowly emerge from the ground.
"Wood Release: True Tree Thousand Hands!"
Time seemed to stand still at that moment. As soon as Yoriichi finished speaking, the delicate green branches on the ground transformed into towering trees in an instant! The towering trees instantly disappeared within the range of the acid, which landed on the giant trees, leaving only a few shallow pits.
"What!" Tsunade stared in shock as the spell was activated, her legs involuntarily bending to her knees, her short golden hair swaying gently in the wind.
Only when the giant tree lifted up countless Buddha hands did Tsunade quickly turn around, and the slug instantly disappeared from its spot.
"Run!" Tsunade shouted frantically to Shizune and the others, but the wind was too strong and Shizune couldn't hear her clearly even when she strained her ears.
"That lip movement... an embrace?" Shizune lifted her chin, her eyes filled with confusion.
"When did Lady Tsunade become so ambiguous?"
"Bang!" The giant Buddha's eyes lit up rapidly, and a thousand giant hands fell simultaneously, smashing towards the direction of Konoha Hospital.
"Don't you like group attacks?" Yuan Yi said coldly. "Then let's all die together."
The earth trembled, and chakra erupted like a tsunami. To the astonishment of the Konoha doctors, the giant hand crashed down like a meteor shower, turning the crowd into dust and scattering them amidst screams of agony.
"My Wood Release isn't as powerful as Hashirama Senju's, but it's not too weak either."
"Killing you all is enough." Yoriichi smiled coldly, quietly watching the crowd turn into countless fragments.
War is so cruel, and no one can be blamed.
Chapter 19 The Battle for the Strongest Summoning Beast
Tsunade didn't have time to worry about the others. With lightning speed, she grabbed Shizune and activated the Reverse Summoning Technique, causing the two of them to disappear from the spot.
The others were not so lucky. They were killed by the True Thousand Hands technique, turning into souls under the Wood Release. The Konoha Hospital was destroyed and razed to the ground.
The surviving members of the Root organization witnessed this scene, and their admiration for Yoriichi deepened, followed by a frenzy of celebration.
"Lord Kenshin! He's too strong!"
Yoriichi smiled slightly, the mark was settled, and countless giant trees stood on the ruins, like a divine relic left over from ancient times.
"It's a pity we let Tsunade get away; we need to keep heading to the third squad's location!"
"Yes!"
As soon as Yoriichi finished speaking, all the Root members were ready to go and marched towards the third team led by Shimura Danzo. Yoriichi was as swift as a startled bird and disappeared into the distance in an instant.
The once peaceful and tranquil Konoha was gradually transformed into a blood-soaked, deathly silence by the war.
However, as everyone gradually left, unnoticed, a small slug quietly emerged from the soil of the ruins of Konoha Hospital.
......
At that very moment, at the location of the third team.
Danzo Shimura was gradually becoming overwhelmed by Jiraiya's attacks. He gasped for breath, looked at Jiraiya, one of the "Three Legendary Sannin," and coughed up a mouthful of bright red blood, which fell to the ground and turned into the color of a withered red rose.
Jiraiya in his Sage Mode was so powerful that Shimura Danzo never expected it.
This disciple of the Third Hokage never showed Jiraiya the final form of Sage Mode. His face was covered with toad patterns, and two toads, a husband and wife, stood on his shoulders. His Sage Chakra was overflowing.
"Am I really old?" Shimura Danzo stared intently at Jiraiya with bloodshot eyes and sighed softly.
"Has Yoriichi not arrived yet?"
"Shimura Danzo, it's over. Your rule and that of your Root organization are over." As Jiraiya finished speaking, the Rasengan slowly enlarged in his hand.
"Heroic Rasengan!" Jiraiya charged towards Shimura Danzo with a fierce determination in his eyes.
Danzo Shimura broke out in a cold sweat; he knew he couldn't possibly withstand that attack.
Is it over?
Suddenly, countless small snakes appeared in Jiraiya's planned route. Before Jiraiya could react, his body was trapped by the swarm of snakes, forming a snake cage that bound him inside.
"Jiraiya, it's been a long time!" A hoarse voice rang out from afar.
Orochimaru, with his hands still in hand seals, slowly approached Jiraiya, a contemptuous smile playing on his lips.
Jiraiya was trapped in the snake cage, his frog-like eyes fixed on Orochimaru. Then, he exerted force with both hands, unleashing the Rasengan on the spot, instantly destroying the snake cage and breaking free from control.
"Orochimaru, so you were involved in this plan after all?"
"Heh, yes." Orochimaru looked at Jiraiya, his venomous eyes gleaming.
"So, now it's two against one, how should you deal with it?"
......
"Lord Bunta is not far ahead!" A member of the Aburame clan ninja said as the Konoha secret technique families gathered and advanced.
"My parasites have sensed it!"
“Alright!” Nara Shikaku nodded slightly, his sharp gaze turning to Akimichi Choza beside him.
Dingza immediately signaled, and the Multiplication Technique was activated. Dingza's body transformed into the size of a massive small mountain, lifting Nara Shikaku and Yamanaka Inoichi up, and charging forward.
As his body was lifted high into the air, Shikaku's eyes gradually saw further and further. He saw the colossal Manda entangled with Gamabunta, and the situation was extremely tense. Gamabunta's neck was already bruised, and his cheeks were slowly turning pale.
"Oh no!" Shikaku shouted in a panic.
At this moment, Choza had already started running forward as fast as he could, and several large snakes that were attacking Gamabunta along with Manda blocked his way.
Ding clenched his fist and slammed it directly at the swarm of snakes. The giant snakes hissed and then tried to bite Ding's fist.
The wind howled, blowing Lu Jiu's hair into disarray. He watched the swarm of snakes gradually attacking, his mind racing, and beads of sweat already forming on his forehead.
"Choza! Throw me out!" Shikaku started shouting.
"Just throw it in the middle of the snake swarm!"
Dingza frowned. Although he didn't understand why Shikaku would do this, the tacit understanding that had developed over a long period of working together made him unconditionally trust Shikaku.
As he threw the punch, Ding Zuo opened his left hand and threw Lu Jiu out. The snakes looked in Lu Jiu's direction and gradually changed their target. Their eyes were full of hostility towards Lu Jiu, and they opened their blood-red mouths, trying to swallow Lu Jiu whole.
Shikaku looked toward the location where the snakes had appeared, and as he descended in a precise arc, he began to form hand seals.
The snakes opened their blood-red mouths, waiting for Shikaku to walk right into their trap, and just as Shikaku was about to fall into their jaws...
"Shadow Stitching Technique, complete." Lu Jiu smiled slightly, and the shadows emanating from his body successfully connected the positions of several snakes, forming an exquisite triangular shape.
