"Lord Ashes... We no longer need to fight. The people of Sand Hidden already know that they have fallen into a trap! So we..." Seeing Ashes stopping himself, Minato hurriedly explained.

But before Minato could finish his words, Ashes stared back with a ferocious look, "Didn't you hear I said this was her battle? Just stand here and watch obediently! As long as I'm here, nothing will happen.

…”

"Okay...Okay, I understand, but please ensure the safety of my daughter and the jinchūriki...please ask Ashes-sama!" Minato pondered for a moment and nodded helplessly. What else could he say besides saying it was Minato?

Hui Jin just waved his hand gently to show that he understood and said nothing more. His eyes were fixed on Naruko who was struggling hard, not knowing what he was thinking.

Ma Ji, the leader of the Sagakure team who was covering half of his face, couldn't understand... What's going on? Why do you, a Hokage, seem to have no prestige at all? Is it possible that this person is actually the mastermind behind the Land of Fire?

But now people have to bow their heads under the roof... I just hope that this person will, as he said, save the life of a jinchuriki...

…

Naruko made a beautiful turn to avoid the huge claw that was thrust at her. The majestic dagger in her hand followed this turn and left a deep cut on the huge claw.

But it still has no effect. The enemy's power is too strong, and the defense is amazing. And looking at the current situation, the enemy is basically in a state of madness, which means it doesn't make sense at all...

I can only defeat it first... But then again, why do you feel so many eyes around you... Why do you feel like you are being watched?

Naruko, who felt extremely sensitive, took the time to look around... It was okay not to look at it, but just one glance almost made Naruko's lungs explode!

What is going on? Why did everyone stop? Why are masters like Grandpa Ashes and Dad Hokage standing on a high place to watch me being beaten?

While Naruko was dodging the enemy's violent attack in embarrassment, she shouted loudly, "Dad! Grandpa! Come and help me! I can't hold on anymore..."

Minato felt that he suddenly had a wild father, and Ashes, who was making decisions, was by his side, so he didn't respond to his daughter's words.

But Ashes snorted and responded loudly, "You have to deal with the trouble you caused yourself! You can't just ask me for help with everything! Solve it yourself!"

Naruko felt like she was in trouble now and couldn't express it. What kind of trouble did she cause? We were just having a normal duel, and then I stabbed this guy in a normal way! Who knew that a big monster would be created!

It seemed that the people around her were unreliable, so she had to work hard on her own! Naruko, who was still waiting for support, gritted her teeth angrily, turned the dagger in her hand, and turned from defense to offense!

The Kyuubi's chakra was activated, the scarlet wind began to gather, and Naruko's movement speed suddenly accelerated!

Judging from this posture, a quick victory is needed. It is not a good choice to drag down a guy like this monster...

Your own probing attacks will have no effect on others, but as long as the enemy's attacks touch you, you will probably be defeated!

This will only happen if it continues to be delayed. It is better to deal with the enemy quickly before he regains his consciousness!

Thinking of this, Naruko's running steps speeded up a little again. The strong wind accompanied by the fine sand raged in the not very large arena, slapping against the walls and making a whirring sound...

"Secret Sword! Wind Stab!" Naruko once again used her big move that made the monster in front of her bleed, but this time, she was not going to hold back!

The very evil-looking crimson gust of wind gathered on the dagger in Naruko's hand, and Naruko rushed out towards the enemy in front...

Facing Naruko's attack, this monster showed no signs of timidity. Instead, it became even more violent as if it had been provoked...

This kind of violence is reflected in his attacks. The already fast attacks become even faster. Under its control, the fine sand condenses into sharp spikes, blocking the road in front of Naruko...

Spikes made of sand grains were shot at Naruko who was running wildly, but they could not shake Naruko's determination to move forward at all!

Naruko, with firm eyes, ran straight and wildly. The surrounding sand was blown aside by the strong wind of chakra brought by her running, but some of it still got into the gap and stabbed Naruko's body.

Seeing Naruko being pierced by the sand on her shoulder and lower abdomen, Namikaze Minato exclaimed, quickly turned to Ashes and said anxiously, "Ashes-sama! Take action quickly! Naruko is seriously injured!"

Ashes did not turn around, but said coldly, "Is there any? I didn't find any serious injuries. Minato, you have to know that your daughter is not just your daughter. Since I said, I want her to become a peerless strong man."

If you do, you will never be lenient!"

Minato tilted his head emotionally and stared at the bright red blood seeping out of his daughter's body, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

With his eyes focused, he secretly made up his mind, no matter what Lord Ashes says! I must protect my daughter and my family! How can I be the Hokage if I can't even protect my own family!

Just when Minato was about to use Flying Thunder God to come behind Naruko to help him, a swift hand knife struck at the back of Minato's neck...

Minato, who was very perceptive, noticed a sound breaking through the air, and turned his head quickly to look, but only saw Hui Jin's face with a helpless expression... Then he slowly lost consciousness, and his body slowly collapsed.

…

Shisui, who had been following Minato, hurriedly stepped forward to catch Minato who was about to fall to the ground, and then looked at Ashes with a surprised look on his face, who still had a very helpless expression, and said, "Lord Ashes... no matter what, this is a bit too much.

Bar!"

Ashes just sighed helplessly, shrugged and said, "Who makes him not want to be a cool dad? I already said that nothing will happen to me as long as I am here. This is Naruko's battle, and he is not allowed to interfere... He doesn't

Listen, do you blame me?"

The people of Sand Hidden now feel that they may have been under some illusion... The fourth Hokage, the powerful golden flash Minato Namikaze, was so easily knocked to the ground by a slap? Speaking of which, we see this kind of thing

You won't be killed and silenced!

Naruko's father was knocked to the ground, but Naruko didn't have time to pay attention to this at all now. What she needed to pay attention to were the wounds on her body and the enemies in front of her! Or maybe only the enemies in front of her needed attention!

As Naruko ran wildly, the strong wind surrounding her became more and more solid, and the dagger held flat in front of her eyes turned into a deep dark red...

The attack power has reached its peak, but in contrast, the defense power has dropped to the bottom... The strong wind that enveloped Naruko has disappeared!

All she needs to do now is run over and put the dagger in her hand into the enemy's throat!

Will he be blocked? Will he be attacked by sand on the way? Let’s talk about this kind of thing later!

Ashes in the stands stared at Naruko who kept running wildly, and said silently, "Yes... kill him! Just rush over and kill him! Don't let me down Naruko... kill him with the knife in your hand!"

Take away the enemy's life to complete the sublimation!"

In Ashes' perception, Naruko's soul is now at a critical point! As long as she pushes lightly, she can complete the sublimation, but she only needs to let out a breath, and all her efforts will be wasted... Ashes doesn't want it to be easy this time.

The opportunity was wasted.

But Shisui, who was standing next to Ashes and supporting Minato, heard Ashes muttering to himself, and his expression immediately became strange... Didn't you agree to ensure the safety of the One-Tail Jinchuuriki? What are you thinking about here?

What a thing!

As she continued to run wildly! Naruko had more and more wounds on her body, large and small wounds all over her body... Her face became paler and paler, but her eyes became more and more determined!

In just a few hundred meters of running, Naruko has transformed from a child into a determined warrior!

Finally! Holding the dagger with the crimson wind surging in her hand, Naruko arrived in front of the monster that had been attacking her for a long time! Just one more step and a shoulder forward! Boom! Her soul can be sublimated!

The heart of Ashes in the stands is about to jump into his throat at this moment... The muttering has evolved into a low voice: "Yes, yes, yes! Don't hesitate! Stab him! Stab him to death! Water your soul with the blood of the enemy!"

The whispers almost turned into loud shouts... Even Ma Ji, who was tied to the ground, heard Hui Jin's words and hurriedly said, "Um... Sir, didn't you mean..."

Without looking back, Hui Jin kicked Ma Ji and kicked him away. "Get out of here! Don't bother me here at this critical moment! I know what I said!"

Finally! The dagger in Naruko's hand pierced the monster's thick neck... The sand began to collapse... The huge monster's eyes flashed with unwillingness and pain... The falling sand exuded a bright red color. I don't know if it was the red wind in Naruko's hand or the red wind in Naruko's hand.

The enemy’s red blood…

The sand finally fell away, revealing the poor creature who had turned into a monster... The short knife in Naruko's hand was firmly inserted into this man's neck...

With a shake of Naruko's arm, the dagger inserted in the enemy's throat was pulled out, along with a handful of blood...

Naruko finally passed this hurdle. People who ignore life will not have this hurdle, but Naruko who values ​​every life is different. This is a difficult challenge for her... Naruko defeated herself,

The person who won was Naruko, and the person who lost... was also Naruko.

Her soul was also sublimated under this knife! Ashes laughed with satisfaction, then jumped off the stand while applauding, walked slowly towards Naruko, and said with a smile as she walked, "Well done Naruko

Son! You didn’t let me down! You defeated yourself...it’s great!”

Naruko, who was stunned with her head down, noticed that Hui Jin was approaching, clenched her fist and punched Hui Jin in the stomach!

Of course Hui Jin can avoid this punch, but there is no need... Looking at Naruko who pressed her fist against her abdomen and her body was shaking constantly, Hui Jin chuckled and said, "It's okay, Grandpa Hui Jin is here..."

Naruko burst into tears, threw herself into Ashes' arms, and cried loudly...
Chapter completed!
