In a seaside town opposite the Country of Waves.
Next to the hot spring where Jiraiya was soaking, a loud frog croaked.
"Quack!!!"
It was an ear-piercing cry like fingernails scraping against a blackboard. It suddenly sounded in the mist, almost frightening the two girls who were rubbing Jiraiya's shoulders and pressing their heads on the shore out of their wits.
"ah!"
"Ninja-sama..."
The two girls immediately hid behind Jiraiya, and the gentle pinching and rubbing immediately turned into a series of compact and violent hammerings. The strength was not much worse than that of Tsunade when she was a child. Jiraiya was dizzy when he hammered hard.
"Well... there seems to be a monster inside!"
Jiraiya speechlessly took off the towel covering his face, and immediately recognized the figure squatting in the mist as the messenger frog he sent to follow Naruto and the three of them.
It seemed that something important had happened, otherwise these toads would have such a tacit understanding with him that they would not bother him at such a critical moment.
"It doesn't matter, it's just a beast, I can deal with it alone!"
Even so, Jiraiya did not forget to play the role of a hero and rubbed the shoulders of the two girls comfortingly, "In order not to scare you, please go out first!"
"Then sir, you must be careful!"
Since the guests had said so, the two of them no longer had any psychological burden and got up and left without any hesitation.
"But if I come back later, can I get a discount?"
Only then did Jiraiya remember something important.
However, the girls ran too fast, and Jiraiya's question was not answered. Instead, the toad hidden in the mist slowly floated closer, with its cute eyes filled with human disgust.
.
"Don't look at me like that! In order to find the old man this year, I haven't had any chance to relax. I finally came across the anniversary celebration of this custom shop, so of course I can't miss it like this."
Jiraiya slapped Toad with a playful smile, and then his face became a little more serious, "What's wrong, are those three brats really so unlucky that they failed on their first mission out of the village? Those two ninjas
Is it really that powerful?"
Jiraiya's confidence in Sakura, Naruto, and Sasuke is not just talk.
You know, the day after graduating from the Ninja School, Kakashi had to use his Sharingan to deal with them.
What's more, several months have passed now, and even Haruno Sakura, the weakest among the three, has learned the S-level spiritual transformation technique. The progress is not small.
Regardless of experience, at least in terms of destructive power and functionality, these three people combined are comparable to a team composed entirely of jonin.
Besides, since Momochi Zabuza was able to come out of the Land of Waves intact, there's no reason why these three people would be defeated or captured so quickly, right?
"Where are there two people? Their opponent is only a young man of about the same age."
The toad said with a cold expression: "This one enemy alone is enough to make them miserable. The four of them had been fighting for a quarter of an hour before I came back, and they couldn't even leave any decent wounds on each other..."
"No way?" Jiraiya didn't believe it, "Naruto's Rasengan doesn't work either?"
"That boy should be from the Taketori clan. He has violent physical skills and is also good at defensive earth escape ninjutsu."
Jiraiya suddenly realized: "No wonder..."
That tribe is world-famous for their endurance. Of course, they are also famous for their irritable character and fanaticism for fighting.
Then he changed the topic: "However, since their battle has not yet come to an end, why did you come to me? Are you predicting that Naruto and the others will lose?"
"The reason why I came back is because compared to the real threat I found, these four brats were just fighting each other."
Toad's face suddenly became serious: "Jiraiya, I felt a large amount of natural energy gathered on that island, and it was extremely evil natural energy."
"What?" Jiraiya leaned forward, the relaxed and comfortable expression on his face completely gone, "You mean, something like Orochimaru's curse seal?"
While tracking Orochimaru in the past few years, Jiraiya frequently destroyed that guy's experimental base and saw many cursed seal experimental subjects.
"no the same."
Toad shook his head, "What Orochimaru uses in his curse seal is an untamed force.
"Using your human words to describe it, the curse seal is more similar to unprocessed food. It is very dangerous, very primitive, and full of toxicity; but the kind I experienced in the Country of Waves is more like being seriously contaminated by something.
The power, the overwhelming evil, almost made me spit it out..."
"so serious?"
Even when facing the psychic snake clan in Ryūchi Cave, the toads had never used this description, and Jiraiya was inevitably a little upset.
"Although that natural energy is spread throughout the Kingdom of Waves, the most intolerable part of it seems to be lurking in the sea."
Toad reminded: "This happened, I have to go back and report to the Great Immortal Toad now, and see what he says. As for those three little ghosts, you'd better take care of them yourself..."
"I understand." Jiraiya stood up from the water, knowing that if he continued to be carefree, something might really happen to these three children.
"It seems that the plan to train them has to be postponed for the time being..."
At the same time, on the beach under the Nami no Kuni Bridge.
"We can't continue like this!"
Genya Immortal Kawa stamped his foot, and the ground with a radius of five meters in front of him collapsed in a fan shape. Sasuke, who was forming seals, lost his balance. It was the countless times that his spell casting was interrupted. The depression in his heart almost turned into blood and vomited out.
.
"Let me reflect on this!"
Genya Immortal Kawa bent down, grabbed a half-man-sized piece of gravel, and threw it at Naruto and Sasuke one by one. Of course, his main target was the latter.
The so-called force is so powerful that bricks fly. Xuan Mi seems to have endless strength in his body. The power of each shot of gravel is comparable to the explosion of a huge fireball. Just the debris splashed on the wall and the tree is enough to make the body fly.
Sasuke suffered so much!
"Why are you always staring at me!"
Tired of coping, Sasuke wielded a long bow wrapped with purple thunder and used the sharp blades at both ends to cut and chop into pieces the rocks that could not be avoided.
However, before he could take a breath, he immediately saw the other party approaching like a mad dog.
He is very familiar with this kind of fierce close attack that makes the opponent unable to use ninjutsu! Isn't this the way Giyuu and Anjuro fight?
Sasuke, who had suffered heavy losses in the past few close encounters with his opponent, didn't dare to accept the challenge. He threw out a few kunai and turned around to run away. At the same time, he shouted in an imageless voice: "Naruto, Sakura! When he is not chasing you.
Can you do something?!"
The trajectory of those kunai was like an unfolding flower, clanking against the surface of Immortal Kawagenya's body, and then bounced in all directions——
That's right, it's a tinkling sound.
In addition to a layer of gray periosteum, the surface of Immortal Kawagenya's body also has a black metal coating formed using the "Earth Release and Earth Spear Technique".
This technique is a weakened version of the Kirigakure Jōnin Genshin Iichi Steel Release that the Butterfly Ninja had to deal with back then. But with the corpse bone veins covering the periosteum of the human body, the defensive power is not much different from the Steel Release - at least it's not Sasuke's fault.
No one can handle it with shurikens.
"I know! I'll restrict his movements right now!"
Naruto yelled and split into four shadow clones while running. Two of them jumped into the air. After quickly forming seals with his hands, he puffed up his cheeks and spit out the violent airflow to the ground——
"Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough!"
Although he was just an ordinary C-level Wind Release, Naruto had no intention of saving any chakra, so after the ninjutsu was released, the two clones immediately ran out of energy, disintegrated and disappeared!
In an instant, Immortal Kawa Genya, who was running wildly to chase Sasuke, froze. He felt his body and mind sink, as if two huge palms had covered his body one after another! At the same time, because of this top-down movement,
The strong wind suddenly caused flying sand and rocks on the beach——
"hateful!!!"
The pressure on his body and the dust around him forced Genya Fusukawa to squat down and cover his eyes with his hands.
However, the C-level ninjutsu went as quickly as it came, and the discomfort disappeared just two seconds later.
"Want to take this opportunity to fight back against me?"
Sure enough, as expected by Xuan Mi, as soon as he put down his hand covering the dust, he saw three Narutos rushing towards him from three directions: from the front, left and right - each Naruto had a blue in his hand.
Glowing cyclone.
"I have guessed it a long time ago!"
As he said that, he raised his right foot high, intending to knock Naruto down when he got close to him.
However, Haruno Sakura, who had been staying away from the battle and whom he considered to be no threat, made an unexpected move.
"Water Release·Water Water Whip!"
A transparent water rope, like a swift poisonous snake, quickly wrapped around his ankle that had not yet fallen.
Haruno Sakura was overjoyed when she saw that the blow was successful. She grabbed the other end of the water whip and pulled it hard - of course she didn't pull it as she hadn't learned the magic power yet!
However, the moment of stiffness she created for Genya Immortal Kawa was enough for Naruto to launch an attack.
"Rasengan!!!"
Three Rasengans, one in front, one on the left and one on the right, hit Immortal Kawa Genya's abdomen, left rib and right waist at the same time!
As soon as the blue chakra vortex touched Xuan Mi's body, it started to break through the wall like a violently rotating drill. However, after a second passed, it only broke through the black coating created by Earth Release and Earth Spear.
, the periosteum inside has no intention of being broken through.
"Are you kidding me?"
The three Narutos raised their eyebrows at the same time, raised their heads, and looked at Genya Immortal Kawa with grinning teeth and blazing eyebrows with awkward smiles on their faces. It looked like they knew they had hit an iron plate this time.
"It's my turn!"
Immortal River roared, raised his right leg, and began to swing from right to left like a flying wheel, actually whipping Haruno Sakura on the other side of the water stream with it.
His strong calves passed through the bodies of the first two Narutos in turn - as expected, they were all shadow clones that disappeared at a touch. In other words, the real body was
【The one on the far left!】
Immortal River was determined to kick at least one of the opponent's arms and quickly swept towards the last Naruto "real body". However, as soon as he made contact, the feeling was no different from the first two clones.
This "real body" made a grimace and then turned into a ball of smoke!
"Could it be?"
Xuan Mi understood instantly - when his vision was blocked just now, this yellow-haired kid had another clone.
【Then, the real him——】
Genya suddenly turned behind him and found that the real Uzumaki Naruto was holding a Rasengan the size of a human head and charging towards his location.
Naruto ran quickly and shouted: "Sasuke! Get ready!"
"Okay!" Uchiha Sasuke's voice was filled with vindictive pleasure.
Genya looked along the direction from which the sound came, and found that Uchiha Sasuke had actually arrived on top of the 6-story Doryu Castle wall just when he was breathing for a few seconds.
He fully drew the special long bow in his hand, and a purple energy arrow composed entirely of thunder chakra was flashing with thunderbolts. Its huge power could be seen from Uchiha Sasuke's flying hair and sleeves.
"Try this trick!"
Sasuke shouted with satisfaction, "Thunder Release: Dark Thunder Thrust Hell Arrow!"
The moment he loosened the bow string, the purple energy arrow flew in front of Immortal Kawa Genya, like a real thunder and lightning.
【too fast!】
Before being hit, this thought flashed through Xuan Mi’s mind: [Only a little slower than Miss Shinobu’s sudden movement——]
Immediately afterwards, the thunder came, and the purple electric snakes were like escaping mosquitoes, instantly crawling all over Immortal Kawa Genya's body. Even when he roared, there was lightning flashing in his open mouth!
He felt that in every muscle fiber and every blood vessel, there were a thousand ants crawling, biting, and tearing!
When Sasuke saw Genya Immortal Kawa screamed, he couldn't move. He jumped up excitedly and waved his fist: "I finally restrained you!"
As you can see from the name, the word "prison" means restriction, so in addition to bringing a large amount of energy impact to the enemy, the function of this arrow is to destroy the electrical signal transmission in the opponent's body, causing it to lose
Control of the body.
Sure enough, Genya Immortal Kawakawa remained motionless on the spot as if he had lost consciousness, and due to attribute restraint, the black coating all over his body gradually disappeared, leaving only the pale periosteum.
Since Naruto couldn't see the front of Immortal Kawagenya, he didn't know if the opponent still had any remaining strength, so he gritted his teeth and pressed the big Rasengan on the opponent's back.
This time, there was no black coating as a buffer, and the Rasengan contained more chakra. In just two seconds, the periosteum of Xuanya Immortal's vest was peeled off by the rapidly rotating cyclone, revealing the bronze skin underneath.
Muscles and skin, and the whole person felt as if they had been hit hard, flying far away, falling to the ground unable to get up again.
The three of them waited for a full five seconds, but Genya Fusugawa was still lying on the ground motionless, and was still covered in smoke.
"call--"
So they all breathed a sigh of relief.
too difficult.
This battle is too difficult.
Naruto collapsed on the ground, and Haruno Sakura quickly stepped forward to treat the bruises all over his body.
Sasuke walked down the earth flow wall, and when passing by Immortal Kawagenya who fell to the ground, he deliberately avoided it, took out a chakra partition handcuff from the scroll, and used the thunder escape to remotely lock Immortal Kawagenya's hands.
live.
He stared at the strong body cautiously, and as much as there was joy of victory on his face, there was as much fear in the depths of his Sharingan.
Unlike the "opponents" he met in the village, this was an enemy that really wanted to hurt him. Several times, he really felt like he was going to be beaten to death on the beach.
"You're still laughing? If you hadn't spoken casually, you two wouldn't have been hurt now!"
Sakura glared at Sasuke, then stretched out a kick to trip him up, lifted up his clothes, and frowned when she found a bruise near Sasuke's abdomen.
"Maybe it's because of the adrenaline, but I didn't feel any pain." Sasuke was shocked when he saw the injury, "But no matter what, that guy was injured much more seriously than me."
"Shut up." Naruto pressed his injured ribs and angrily said the imperative sentence that Butterfly Ninja usually used to Giyu.
"How many times has Yiyong said that when you meet someone who is hostile to us but doesn't know what they have done, you should communicate well first. Maybe you can turn your enemy into a friend!"
Naruto repeated Giyuu's few words of advice.
However, it was precisely because there were so few truths that Giyuu had said that Naruto accepted almost every one of them as a guideline.
Over the past few years, he has become low-key and reliable, and he doesn't even like to be in the limelight. In some ways, it is as if he and Sasuke have reversed their personalities (so much so that Black Zetsu, who sometimes comes to Konoha to observe them, wonders if he has confused Asura and Sasuke).
Indra's chakra reincarnation is confused).
"Don't come here. You are so brave and brave. No matter what you say, others will turn your enemies into friends."
Uchiha Sasuke smacked his lips while receiving treatment, "Otherwise, you could just talk about the flowers in the sky, and the other party wouldn't bother to pay attention to you."
"..." Naruto stared at Sasuke, took out his notebook without saying a word, and wrote a long list.
"Hey, hey, you don't have to..."
"Next time Yiyong comes back, I will show him what you said."
"Despicable. Actually snitching!"
"Aren't you my brother? What are you afraid of?"
"You two! Shut up!"
Haruno Sakura stood up and punched one person on the forehead with a ferocious face. After saying that, she turned around and went to her pocket to get the scar removal plaster to prevent Uchiha Sasuke from leaving scars on his face.
Although this classmate is the most unstable factor in the team, it would be a pity if this face is damaged.
But she didn't expect it. As soon as she turned around, she heard a violent cough, so she turned her head quickly with a serious face: "What's going on? Is one of you two injured in the lungs?"
"not us."
Uchiha Sasuke shook his head with a blank expression, and then the three of them looked at each other, looking in disbelief at the place where Genya Immortal Kawakawa had fallen.
The man, who was covered in smoke and whose skin was covered with scorch marks, had his hands locked behind his back, but he still stood up slowly and with difficulty using the support of his shoulders and knees.
His high-hanging eyes were filled with humiliating anger, his broad shoulders undulated violently, and his throat roared like a beast.
Naru, Sakura and the three of them retreated instinctively, and then Sasuke remembered something: "Don't be afraid, I used the chakra isolating handcuffs at the root. He is no longer a threat."
However, Immortal Sichuan first shrank his shoulders back, then clenched his teeth, said "ha", tensed his arms, and then pulled hard, and the handcuffs suddenly turned into two pieces of scrap metal and fell on the beach.
.
"..."
After the three of them were stunned for a short time, they immediately raised their weapons, made a defensive posture, and at the same time withdrew from the opponent's melee attack range.
Sasuke endured the fatigue, opened his Sharingan again, opened the long bow in his hand, and the purple energy arrow gradually condensed and took shape.
He warned loudly: "If you don't want to be shot into a roast by my arrow like I just did, just go ahead and capture me!"
"Every arrow shot from this bow has a speed exceeding three times the speed of sound. Without the dynamic vision of the Sharingan, you can't even think of avoiding it!"
"Sharingan?" Fusukawa repeated in a low voice, with a dangerous and ferocious smile on his beast-like face.
He took out a card from his back pocket, shook it a few times, and a small box came out.
Opening the small box, there were three small test tubes inside, with the words "Yi", "Xing" and "Tolerance" respectively labeled from left to right.
He took out the one on the far left, opened the cork with a flick of his finger, and drank the transparent liquid inside. Then he put the things away and closed his eyes, as if he had fallen into some kind of Zen state.
"what is that?"
"Healing medicine? Special military food pills?"
"Anyway, I feel something is wrong."
For some reason, Sasuke suddenly regretted that just to satisfy his curiosity, he actually waited for the other person to drink the stuff.
"Just bring him down again!"
So he loosened the bow string and fired another "Ming Lei Throne Prison Arrow".
The purple thunder and lightning rushed out at a speed that Naruto and Sakura could not judge, but this time, it failed to hit.
Immortal Kawagenya flexed his fingers and dodged to the left, dodging the blow.
"What?" Sasuke couldn't believe it.
However, when he looked carefully at Genya Fusugawa's face, a cold chill suddenly spread throughout his body.
"Why do you have the Sharingan?!!!"
Naruto and Sakura were equally surprised. However, the two blood-red eyes in the other's eyes could not be faked.
And what’s slightly different from Sasuke is that the Sharingan in Immortal Kawagenya’s eyes is a three-magatama!
"How could this happen? What was that you drank just now? This is impossible!!!"
While Sasuke desperately denied it, he continuously shot shorter lightning bolts, but they were narrowly dodged by Genya Immortal Kawakawa.
The dynamic vision of three magatama is far from comparable to that of two magatama.
He shook his smoking body, dodged Sasuke's attack, and walked heavily to the edge of two huge pieces of gravel.
"What does he want to do?"
The opponent obviously didn't attack, but the three of them felt even more panicked.
However, he was far from his opponent in melee combat. He couldn't get close at will and could only watch the opponent perform.
"Earth Release: The Technique of Weighted Rock."
After forming the Seal of the Immortal River, I touched each of the two boulders, and the latter immediately sank deeper into the sand.
Then, Immortal Kawagenya glanced at the three vigilant people, lowered his body and took a deep breath. Under the stunned expressions of the three people, he opened his back like a door panel, and then——
He pulled out his spine without saying a word!
The vertebrae seemed to be endless. No matter how many times he pulled them out, there was still no end.
It was not until the trio stood stunned for ten seconds that Genya Immortal finally pulled out a long enough spine, and his back gradually healed.
He dug the two ends of his spine deeply into the two gravels.
Genya Immortal Kawa stopped running chakra, and his breathing became long and deep.
He held up the long spine like a chain, and swung up the boulders at both ends like a fan.
Then, he threw the boulder high into the sky and pulled it down violently, as if pulling down the stars from the sky.
