Clang!

Just when everyone's attention was focused on the cooperation between Toner and Kato Dan, a long knife was thrust out of the chest of the elderly ninja standing next to Kato Dan.

I saw his eyes widened with disbelief on his face.

He didn't realize how the other party appeared next to him at all.

Slowly turning around, he saw a pile of sand behind him quickly rising up, slowly turning into the shape of a person, and the long knife was being held in his hand.

"when?!"

It's just that he couldn't speak anymore. Looking at Kato Dan's body standing not far away, very bad thoughts swept through his whole body, but it was a pity that other than this thought, he could no longer act.

, the power in the body was quickly lost as the long knife was separated from the body.

Everyone has noticed what's going on here.

Thinking back to the time when the sand ninjas performed the sand manipulation technique on a large scale just now, because there were so many people, they didn't notice anyone disappearing.

There is a high probability that this Jonin, who was good at Sand Hidden Technique, was lurking in the sand at that time, slowly approaching Kato Dan's location.

Complete the assassination in one fell swoop.

Everyone rushed back with all their might.

But the distance is really too close, even if Toneri or Kato Dan's soul returns at full speed, they can't catch up.

This is also the reason why the other party can rest assured that he can deal with the other person first before dealing with Kato Dan.

So close!

Tsunade, who was fighting Chiyo, had eyes wide open.

This time, she really ignored the attack of Chiyo's puppet and ran towards Kato Dan with all her strength.

I saw a sneer on the corner of the sand ninja's mouth, and the long knife in his hand stabbed Kato Dan's heart without hesitation.

Ding!!!

But what surprised him was that he didn't feel the feeling of tearing the flesh when he stabbed it, because there was a relatively shorter knife in front of him.

He is a shorter person.

Looking at the kid in front of him, he glanced at Toneri who was rushing back at full speed from the corner of his eye.

"Earth clone?"

Predicting the danger Kato Dan might encounter in advance, Toneri deliberately left an earth clone to follow Kato Dan in order to prevent Tsunade from getting lost, just to prevent accidents from happening.

blocked!

Tsunade's face was filled with joy. Even though her body was covered in scars after being attacked by Chiyo's ten Chikamatsu people, she was still happy inside.

Everyone who rushed back was also surprised.

Only Shiren frowned, and instead of slowing down, the speed of rushing back accelerated again.

This man's strength has not been very conspicuous in the previous battles, and Toneri has not paid much attention to it, because he seems to be a relatively young existence among the many jonins of Sand Ninja. It is normal for young people not to show their strength.

But at this moment, Shiren suddenly discovered that this person gave him a very familiar feeling.

He has short brown hair, wears the standard ninja armor of the Sand Ninja outside the black ninja uniform, and is lined with mesh underwear. He has black pupils. When he lowers his head and coldly eyes, he seems to see a circle around his eyes.

Light dark circles.

After the long sword was deflected by Toneri's earth clone, the shiny long sword turned into golden sand grains in an instant.

Toneri's earth clone's pupils shrank suddenly, and he remembered who this person was!

"Magnetic Escape - Quicksand Thousand Needles of Gold!!"

All I could see was that the corners of his raised mouth turned into sand together with the knife in his hand, surrounding Toneri's earth clone and Kato Dan's body.

A large number of needles formed from the sand, constantly causing damage to Kato Dan's body.

"No!!!"

Tsunade, who originally thought she could rescue her in time, shouted with red eyes.

He stumbled and fell to the ground, then got up and ran for two steps before falling back to the ground.

Toneri, who was running back, slowly stopped, and with him was the soul of Kato Dan with a bitter and helpless smile on his face.

He could clearly feel the energy in his body slowly passing away.

The soul power is slowly dissipating.

The feeling became more and more obvious, and the soul that could originally see the essence gradually became blurred.

The disappearing sand condensed and formed next to Chiyo.

He held a scroll in his hand and handed it to Chiyo: "Elder Chiyo, I got the thing back."

"Well done, Luosha!"

Chiyo took the scroll handed over by Luo Sha with a smile. The moment he took it, the entire scroll turned into powder.

Luosha!

Toneri's expression turned cold when he heard his name, it was indeed him!

Tsunade smashed the gold sand covering Kato Dan's body with one punch. When she saw Kato Dan's body covered with scars inside, her entire chest was almost completely broken, and all her internal organs were shattered and turned into minced meat.

He immediately put it down, wrapped his hands in rich green chakra, and used all his palm power.

However, Kato Dan's injuries were still too serious, and almost none of his internal organs were intact.

Even if Tsunade has tremendous medical ninjutsu, it is impossible to save her when so many organs are missing.

But she didn't give up, her eyes were red, and a lot of tears crazily overflowed from her eyes. The tears gradually blurred her eyes, and it looked as if her blood-stained hands were integrated into Kato Dan's body.

"Break!!Break!!Break!!!"

Tsunade shouted in a low voice, but everyone could hear the heartbreaking tone in her voice.

"I will fight with you!!"

Losing two companions at once, Akimichi Daofeng was so angry that he swallowed the last remaining red pepper pill in one gulp.

The originally fat body lost weight at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the huge chakra flowing throughout his body could hardly be accommodated. The excess chakra spurted out from his back, turning into light blue butterfly wings.

butterfly!

"Secret Technique-Super Doubling Technique!"

Akimichi Michofeng rushed into the group of Sand Ninjas without any scruples. With his huge size at this time, there was almost no physical strength that could stop him.

Nearly invincible in a short period of time.

Toneri stood there, looking at Kato Dan whose soul was slowly dissipating, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart.

For Kato Dan, who has only known each other for less than a few hours, it is hard to say how close the relationship between them is.

However, he could feel Tsunade's love for him, Kato Dan's gentle character, and his careful and protective heart towards Tsunade.

This kind of personality is very similar to Toneri's good friend Minato.

I originally thought that leaving an earth clone next to Kato Dan would be able to save him.

At least, slow down the enemy's advance a little.

But I never expected that the person who took action was actually Rasa. He learned the magnetic release ninjutsu from the Third Kazekage, and he also had a special Rasa body constitution!

The fourth Kazekage of Sunagakure Village in the future will be the father of Gaara, the next one-tailed jinchuriki!

Rasa, who was not yet twenty years old at this time, already had the strength of a jounin, and because he was extremely good at sand manipulation, he hid it very well and made Toneri's preparations go to waste.

"Is this Kato Dan's life? It can't be changed?!

If we can't even save Kato Suan's life, then"

Toneri looked at Kato Dan who was slowly disappearing, and saw that his soul's mouth was opening and closing, as if he wanted to say something.

"Huh? The backup is in the forehead protector?"

At this time, Tsunade threw herself on Kato Dan's body, forgetting everything, and worked hard to heal Kato Dan.

But now the Suna Ninja had no time to care about them, because after eating the red pepper pills, Akimichi Michifeng sacrificed all his fat, and the fighting power he exploded made him almost invincible in a short time.

Theoretically speaking, after taking the Akimichi clan's red pill, if they don't get the treatment they deserve, they will die.

"Beautiful, is there any chance to save him?"

Toneri came to the sealed space again and looked at the huge Erwei.

At this time, there is one person and one tailed beast, and their eyes are the same, one blue and one yellow.

Toneri was still a little unwilling. He had foreseen Kato Dan's death, and he also tried to change it. However, he thought of the beginning and the result, but not the process.

Luo Sha's magnetic escape explosive power exceeded his expectations.

It may sound a little cold-blooded, but he doesn't care very much whether Kato Dan will really die, but it is very important for whether he wants to participate in something in the future, try or even challenge to change something.

If Kato Dan still dies despite his anticipation and efforts, does that mean that the same will be true for Minato and Kushina in the future?
