Double-transformation: I, Sakura Haruno! Will crush the pirates!

Bang!

Water splashed, and Shibuki, radiating chakra flames, landed on the water's surface.

"Did you consume the Hero's Water? But how long can this chakra burn?"

Shuiyan reached out and grabbed, and water droplets that appeared out of thin air gathered in his hand to form a sharp longsword.

—Takigakure-ryu: Water Sword.

"It's none of your business. I'll do my job well!"

Amidst roars, water swords clashed, and the two danced amidst the flashing blades, their shared martial arts techniques exchanging blows, resulting in a fierce and evenly matched contest.

In the distance, the ninja Yanyu from the Mist Village seized the opportunity to unleash a Lightning Release ninjutsu on the Water Whip. The electric current traveled through the liquid, knocking Sasuke unconscious.

After preparing for a long time, Kiriyu smiled bloodthirstyly, took out a long sword, and used all her strength to slash at Sasuke's neck.

As the sword flashed and the ferocity on Wuyu's face intensified, a massive, scarlet outline suddenly appeared in the void.

call out!

"Flying Thunder God, guide the lightning!"

Accompanied by the girl's clear voice, a giant sword fell from the sky—

A blinding light surged across the land, and the sealing sword held by the phantom of the god pierced through the misty rain's body in an instant.

Cut in half at the waist!

Then, the raging flames spread, frost danced in the sky, and the girl, draped in frost and flames, lightly touched the ground with her toes, dividing the battlefield into a hellish place where extreme cold and extreme heat intertwined.

"Oh dear, everyone's busy, how about we join you?"

Chapter 72 No money? That's easy!

Amidst the endless turbulent rainbow light, the crimson chakra gradually emerged, rapidly expanding and growing, like burning steel tearing through the sky, filling the field of vision.

The pitch-black divine weapon unleashed by the Wild God traveled thousands of miles to pierce the disrespectful ones who defied Him.

—Susanoo, Yasaka Magatama!

Hearing the sound, the many wave-like ninjas in the misty shadows were momentarily bewildered. They subconsciously looked up at the sky and saw the surging, fierce light bursting forth.

"Hey, Comrade, that thing looks like it's glowing?"

Wait a minute, why is it getting bigger?

What do you mean, "I should talk to Fugaku myself"? Fugaku is gone, how can I talk to him?

You want me to see Fugaku?!

No! I still want to live life to the fullest!

boom! ! !

A pair of bewildered eyes were illuminated by the light ignited by the burning flames.

The strongest attack born from the Mangekyou Sharingan technique of illusion and destruction caused the earth to tremble violently, spewing out streaks of crimson lightning that tore through the void and swept up countless Mist Shadow Ninjas.

"Uchiha Itachi, what are you doing, you madman!"

Seeing this, Shuiyan's eyes widened in fury, but this also caused him to reveal a slight flaw in his movements.

Seizing the opportunity, Shibuki swung his water sword, piercing through Shibuki's chest.

"Cough, confused..."

Shuiyan coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed to his knees.

Uchiha Itachi, who was enveloped by the divine shadow in the distance, withdrew his gaze and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

'This brother-obsessed guy!'

Sakura, who was fighting him, used her Observation Haki to catch her opponent's thoughts and secretly complained.

Transparent steam erupted from all parts of the girl's body, her chakra ignited by the bloodline limit: Boil Release.

"Boiling Escape·Unparalleled Strange Power!"

The unrestrained power of the giant royal family roared wildly, combined with the physical enhancement brought by the boiling chakra, causing Sakura's punch to spark in the air.

Susanoo's shield rises again, and the sacred Yata Mirror attempts to reflect the attributes on the girl's fist.

However, sheer force suppressed all changes in attributes, violently tearing apart the chakra and shattering everything in its path.

The numbers, pure numbers, crushed all the fancy mechanics before the fist hurtled straight for Itachi Uchiha's cheek.

Even the now healthy Itachi Uchiha felt a chill run down his spine under this extreme violence.

"Amaterasu!"

Black flames rose, scorching everything!

Dark flames arrived with a destructive power that could annihilate everything, engulfing the girl completely.

Sakura's Observation Haki roared, frantically warning Sakura of the impending danger.

Faced with a flame that, once ignited, could never be broken, Sakura wasn't so presumptuous as to test its temperature with her fist.

Unfortunately, the connection of chakra transcended time and space, capturing the anchor point of a Flying Thunder God kunai beneath him.

call out!

The light of time and space burst forth, allowing Sakura to easily traverse the vast distance and escape Amaterasu's range.

The black flames fell to the ground, instantly burning a layer of rocks to ashes, and the flames continued to spread, displaying a grandeur reminiscent of a raging fire.

"Hey, are you serious?!"

Having narrowly escaped Amaterasu, Sakura looked back at the spreading black flames, sweat trickling down her forehead.

With a slap from her ninja tool pouch, a small scroll fell out. Sakura hooked her toe and kicked the scroll away, revealing the runes of the Fire Sealing Seal.

Boiling chakra was poured into it, and surging sealing lines burst forth, about to completely wrap around and drag the black flames into the scroll.

Itachi Uchiha did not answer, but at this moment he really wanted to change his Sharingan into Byakugan so that he could roll his eyes at the girl in front of him at any time.

Listen to what she's saying, is that even human language?

Who was it that first used superhuman strength ninjutsu to hit someone's face? Besides, if he had been hit by that technique, would he have survived?

"If this continues, I'll have to use the complete Susanoo."

Itachi Uchiha's cold voice pierced through the dusty battlefield and reached Sakura's ears. He raised his finger and pointed behind Sakura, while wiping the blood from the corner of his eye.

Following the direction he pointed, Sakura Haruno turned back and glanced at the devastated Takigakure Village.

"Tsk..."

Sakura clicked her tongue, a look of annoyance on her face.

Seeing that she understood his meaning, Itachi Uchiha dispelled the chakra of Susanoo and threw out a bunch of kunai and shuriken.

"Fire Release: Impatiens Flower Claws Red!"

Fire Release ignites ninja tools, and burning shuriken fly around.

Sakura swayed her body slightly a few times, and dodged them all.

"Earth Escape·Yellow Spring Marsh!"

The girl's fingers flew, forming ninja hand seals. Chakra was injected into the earth, activating the ground. With the combination of water and soil, a large swamp appeared on the open space.

As the Mist Ninja turned to flee upon seeing Itachi Uchiha's Fire Release ninjutsu, they were suddenly trapped in the swamp due to the mutated ground.

Immediately afterwards, shuriken and kunai bathed in flames rained down from the sky, displaying the ferocity of the Fire Release techniques that made the Uchiha clan famous.

These ninjas stared blankly, their eyes wide, when in their final moments, a flash of inspiration struck them.

"You sons of bitches, you're all in cahoots..."

puff!puff!puff!

Flames shot out, kunai pierced through, and shuriken sliced ​​through; the Kirigakure ninjas' unwilling realization was drowned out by the sharp sound of metal scraping.

After that, no one survived.

Flames created by Fire Release burned everywhere, while Sakura and Itachi Uchiha stood facing each other.

"The Jinchuriki of Takigakure were transferred in advance. It seems they knew we were coming."

"Also, remember to remind the village that someone is collecting tailed beasts; it's that organization called Akatsuki."

Amidst the noise of the burning flames and the billowing smoke, Itachi Uchiha spoke up to remind Sakura.

"Okay, I'll take the message back. Is there anything else you want me to tell Aunt Mikoto?"

Brushing the dust off her clothes, Sakura studied the increasingly tall young man in front of her.

"No."

Surrounded by the burning flames, Itachi Uchiha's pupils trembled almost imperceptibly.

The black clothes on its body began to struggle, and black crows emerged from them, eventually scattering and fleeing.

As she watched him leave, Sakura suddenly felt a weight in her hand.

Open your palm, and there lies an eyeball quietly soaking in nutrient solution.

"I'm entrusting Sasuke to you. If he ever gets to that point in the future, please help him snatch the other one back from Danzo."

The sound gradually faded away, eventually being drowned out by the crackling of the burning fire.

Seeing that this guy cared more about his younger brother than his mother, Sakura whispered something to him:

"You're such a brother-obsessed idiot!"

But despite the complaints, the mess still needs to be cleaned up.

He used a sealing scroll to store Shisui's eyes close to his body, then looked back at the devastated Takigakure Village, which had been engulfed in flames.

Yin - You - Mao

Sakura formed hand seals and slammed her hands hard on the ground!

"Water Style: Who will repair the dam?"

Chakra mobilized the clear water from the nearby waters, which rained down from the sky to wash over the battlefield.

In addition to erasing all traces, they also extinguished the great fire burning in Takigakure Village.

After a man-made disaster, the village of Takigakure was littered with dead and injured villagers. The village leader, Shibuki, had also fallen into a coma due to overdrawing his chakra by consuming the Hero's Water. The entire village was in complete chaos.

Sakura gathered the remaining villagers and summoned slugs to heal them.

A few hours later, Shibuki, who had just woken up, immediately went to visit Sakura.

"This time, we are very grateful for your great help!"

With bandages wrapped around his body, Shibuki knelt before Sakura and bowed to her.

"Don't rush to thank us. We're ninjas, and Mr. Shibuki commissioned us on a mission, so we need to carefully calculate the reward."

Sakura lazily tilted her head to the side, while Naruto and Sasuke behind her tried their best to maintain an intimidating demeanor.

"Medical ninjutsu is sponsored by me personally, so I won't charge you any fees."

"But in terms of combat, there's one current S-rank rogue ninja, Uchiha Itachi, four Chunin from the Kirigakure region, and thirty Genin..."

Every time Sakura's voice rang out, Shibuki's heart skipped a beat.

Takigakure Village had just experienced an invasion, and its wealth and production were almost completely destroyed.

Meanwhile, the main force's supplies for fighting outside depended on the villages, the burned-down houses needed to be rebuilt, and the injured villagers needed to be comforted.

Now, another S-level mission reward has been thrown in my face.

We're broke! We're really broke! Even if we squeezed every last drop out of Takigakure, we still wouldn't have that much money!

"Waaah, Father, why didn't you tell me that being a leader was such an expensive thing!"

"Well, Lord Haruno, our Takigakure Village is truly..."

Burning under the gaze of the girl in front of him, Shibuki's mouth was filled with bitterness, but for the sake of the village, he still had to speak up.

He swallowed his bitterness and said in a hoarse voice, "I simply can't afford this reward."
