Chapter 299: Local and Foreign Cockroaches in Konoha
The sky was gray, and the clouds that had been dispersed by the fight between the giants gathered again.
The air was heavy and oppressive.
Konoha was reduced to ruins.
The Outer Path Demon Statue trampled on the ruined buildings, ignored the surrounding fireworks, came to the side of the Ten-Tails, and received the nine tailed beasts from the Ten-Tails' spiritual world.
"It's time to go home!"
The Nine-Tails, who controlled the Ten-Tails, sighed, reluctantly, and took the initiative to leave the Ten-Tails' spiritual world.
The other tailed beasts left the Ten-Tails' spiritual world and transformed into pure energy, injecting it into the golem.
Even if they don't want to leave, they have to leave now, otherwise they will be forcibly merged into the awakened consciousness of the Ten-Tails.
Keng——
The eyes on the head of the Outer Path Golem opened one after another and entered a state of transformation.
"If we enter the body of the original master, will our spiritual will be obliterated..."
Nanao suddenly spoke.
Yiwei said seriously: "It shouldn't be, although I can't explain why."
Nine-Tailed Tucao:
"You can still speak, which means you still retain consciousness. This also means that our spiritual consciousness will not be assimilated by the body for the time being."
Nanao reacted immediately and exclaimed:
"That makes sense, but why?"
"..."
Kyuubi said nothing.
Too lazy to answer.
As the tailed beasts moved one by one from the body of the Ten-Tails in Yugetsu to the body of the Outer Path Statue left by Kaguya, the spiritual world of the Outer Path Statue gradually awakened.
of course.
Due to the lack of original energy of the tailed beasts, the Ten-Tails' mental consciousness has not fully recovered.
Its brain is controlled by the nine tailed beasts, and it has not yet reached the stage of falling into madness.
Therefore, the tailed beasts can remain awake inside their main golems.
Yin Yue walked up to Nagato.
He looked at the weak Nagato:
"Did you sense it?"
Nagato looked up: "Yes, I sensed it. The Ten-Tails is reviving, but due to the lack of chakra of the tailed beasts, it can choose whether to enter a crazy state."
"You can take this opportunity and become the Jinchūriki of the Ten-Tails."
"I need time."
"This kind of thing will not happen again in the Ninja Village recently. Besides, I plan to expand the area of the Royal Capital Fortress and let the migration teams of the four major Ninja Kingdoms fill the entire Land of Fire. As for Konoha, let it stand in the sky!"
"Really?" Nagato asked in surprise.
Originally, the four major ninja countries and the small ninja villages of the smaller ninja countries should have been placed on the edge of the Fire Country.
Konoha is still Konoha.
"Well, if Konoha is still preserved, new conflicts will inevitably arise in the future. It is better to give all the land to them." Yinyue reached out and patted Nagato's shoulder: "Okay, I'll go and clean up the battle, and look forward to your rebirth."
In order to annex the four major ninja countries, Yin Yue naturally has to show his sincerity.
The entire Konoha, which has fallen into ruins and is waiting to be rebuilt, is Yin Yue's gift.
Nagato had a complicated expression as he watched Yinyue walk towards the bottom of the fortress.
"The Ten-Tails Jinchuriki?"
Nagato looked back.
He looked at the Outer Path Demon Statue that was reviving towards the Ten-Tails stage, then looked down at his legs and took a deep breath.
Recent events made Nagato feel that his previous thoughts and actions were very childish.
He thought that by capturing the nine tailed beasts and gaining absolute power, he would be able to change the ninja world.
Little did they know that capturing the nine tailed beasts and gaining their power was just the beginning.
There are still countless difficulties waiting ahead.
Who knows what other difficulties are waiting for challengers who want to climb to the top of the ninja world besides the Otsutsuki?
And now, he was following Yinyue and was on the road to climb.
"If we want to change the ninja world, we still have a long way to go." Nagato looked at Yin Yue's back again and whispered, "Yahiko, perhaps, only if I follow his footsteps can we see the future we envisioned!"
He repeated these words to himself in his heart to prevent his heart from wavering.
...
...
The king is fortress.
edge.
A dense and long team like a dragon was landing towards the fortress in an orderly manner, but the villagers were all uneasy, with fear written on their faces.
"Naruto, what are you going to do?"
Kushina exclaimed as she looked at Naruto running away from her.
She was assisting the Konoha villagers in landing at the fortress, maintaining the team, and defending against the incoming White Zetsu.
Right now, Naruto and his peers were running towards the edge of the fortress.
"Mother, don't worry. We have studied for so long and can take care of ourselves. Now that the Ninja Village is in trouble, we also want to contribute to the Ninja Village!"
Naruto turned around and waved at Kushina.
Kushina's expression suddenly changed.
Make a decision in your heart.
These seedlings are the ones that Yinyue focuses on, so she naturally cannot watch anything happen to them.
But living in troubled times, over-protecting young seedlings is irresponsible to them.
Kushina decided.
She follows these guys first, and then rescues them when they are in desperate situations.
all in all.
As an elder, she feels gratified that these young people can find opportunities to gain experience on their own.
Then, Naruto took the lead and arrived at the edge of the fortress with everyone.
He found his target, and with a kunai in his hand, he stabbed at a White Zetsu that was rushing towards him.
Snapped--
Before the kunai fell, White Zetsu dodged Naruto's attack by leaning sideways, came to Naruto's side, and punched Naruto hard on the side of his face.
This variation left Naruto, who had little combat experience, unable to defend himself.
"Damn it!"
Naruto's face was deformed by the heavy punch. He screamed in pain, fell to the ground and rolled backwards.
Under the training of Hong and others, he was indeed training his physical fitness like crazy during this period, but he only learned some basic ninjutsu.
"Back off, Naruto, don't try to be brave on your own!" A loud voice came from behind.
Sasuke opened his Sharingan, glanced at White Zetsu in front of him, appeared from the side of White Zetsu, and swung his ninja sword accurately at White Zetsu's neck.
click -
The attack was extremely skillful, but due to lack of power, the ninja sword was stuck in Bai Zetsu's neck.
"Huh..." White Zetsu widened his eyes and looked at Sasuke beside him in surprise, and suddenly a strange and terrifying smile appeared on his face.
Its hands turned into white vines, which were pulled out suddenly, making crackling sounds in the air and hitting Naruto and Sasuke.
"Ah!!" Naruto and Sasuke were whipped and flew backwards like a spinning top.
"Sasuke!!!"
When Sakura saw this scene, she instantly stepped forward and threw the kunai in her hand at White Zetsu.
call out--
Sakura watched as the kunai shot out through the air, about to hit White Zetsu's head.
She cheered secretly in her heart and for a moment she even forgot to care about Sasuke who was blown away.
This time, all members of the Konoha Orphanage were mobilized together. If they could defeat a white monster before Naruto and Sasuke...
"Hahaha!" A little devil appeared in Sakura's mind. She clenched her fist excitedly and said, "Then my status in everyone's hearts will skyrocket!"
“Hit me!!”
Sakura's pupils widened as she stared ahead.
Swah——
But when the kunai approached White Zetsu, White Zetsu slightly turned his face and easily dodged the attacking kunai.
"This..." Sakura stood there in a daze.
Before she could dodge, a white vine appeared from under her feet and hit her abdomen hard.
Snapped--
The cane hit Sakura's stomach hard, and her clothes were instantly covered with blood.
A burning and tearing pain came.
Sakura flew backwards and fell to the ground, holding her stomach with both hands and wailing in pain.
"The strength of these White Zetsu is not weaker than that of ordinary jonin. Everyone, be fully alert!" Ino looked at the fallen Sakura and without saying a word, she stopped where she was and took out the medical scroll, ready to heal her companion.
"No... don't worry about me, Ino, go and help everyone!" Sakura held Ino's hand tightly, her face pale, and urged her in pain.
"Hiss——" Ino frowned and sighed inwardly as she looked at Sakura's appearance.
This guy got pumped...
Ino didn't feel sorry at all. Even at this time, Sakura still didn't forget to trick her. She wanted her to be whipped by that monster as well?
Please, my family's secret technique is mind-to-mind, which belongs to Yin Dun, a spiritual secret technique, and is not suitable for charging into battle!
Ino pretended to be serious and said in a deep voice:
"Okay, Sakura, just hold on, I'll go help everyone!"
After saying that, she snatched the medical ninjutsu scroll from Sakura and quickly followed the other companions.
"Ok?"
Sakura held her stomach, lying on the ground, staring at Ino with wide eyes, and stretched out her hand forward, "You...you should leave the medical ninjutsu scroll for me before you leave..."
As Ino left.
Sakura was about to get up when she noticed a spatial distortion on the grass beside her out of the corner of her eye.
Then, a White Zetsu emerged from below, with a sinister smile on its face, and walked towards Sakura.
"Sakura!!!"
Seeing that Sakura was in danger, Naruto just got up from the ground, then burst out with all his strength and ran towards the White Zetsu who had knocked him and Sasuke away and attacked Sakura, and hit the White Zetsu heavily.
boom--
The two flew backwards.
Sakura was still in shock.
"Damn it!" Sasuke looked at Naruto who was flying backwards holding White Zetsu, and without saying anything, he passed by Sakura and followed closely behind.
If White Zetsu reacts and stays close to it, Naruto will definitely end up in trouble.
"Sasuke-kun!"
Sakura exclaimed.
She wanted to attract Sasuke's attention, but found that Sasuke was completely indifferent to her who was lying on the ground seriously injured, pitiful, petite and weak.
boom--
Naruto and White Zetsu rolled down a small hill and fell into a depression.
Sasuke followed closely behind.
White Zetsu has already reacted. It was the first to stand up from the ground, with a ferocious expression on its face. Its right arm turned into a spike and stabbed swiftly at Naruto beside it.
"Naruto!!!"
Sasuke exclaimed.
"..."
Naruto looked up, staring at the barbs about to fall from the sky, his pupils reflecting the aura of death.
His brain froze at this moment, and he didn't know how to deal with the situation.
Before the battle, he had anticipated all kinds of situations that would happen when he fought the white monster.
But when they are really in the situation, rookies like them will still be confused and at a loss.
"No no no."
Naruto tried to step back, but found that fine sand appeared on the ground where he pressed his hands.
"sand???"
On the hillside, Sasuke raised his right arm.
Just as he was about to throw the ninja sword in his hand, he was surprised to find that the White Zetsu that attacked Naruto suddenly sank and was forced to stop.
The mud area beneath Bai Zetsu turned into golden quicksand in an instant.
Sasuke saw the movement of chakra through his Sharingan. He suddenly raised his head and looked behind him.
Gaara opened his arms, stood behind Sasuke, and whispered:
"Save him, don't treat this as a game, otherwise, you will really die!"
Hearing this, Sasuke showed mixed emotions on his face. He instantly ran to Naruto, who had not yet reacted, helped him up, and ran towards the hillside.
No matter how much Sasuke dislikes Naruto now, because of Yin Yue, he is still his younger brother in name. As an older brother, how can he not save his younger brother?
They are now on the edge of the combat zone.
It was also because the White Zetsu did not appear here in a group that they were able to take action.
After Gaara saved Naruto, he did not stop, but instantly left in another direction.
He also needs combat experience.
Watching Gaara leave, Naruto, who was supported by Sasuke, finally came to his senses and said in horror:
"He's very good. I...I...I need to work harder."
Sasuke stared at Gaara's back.
He acknowledged Naruto's words.
This 'prince' of the Sand Village sent to the fortress by his father is indeed very powerful.
When Gaara first joined the Konoha Orphanage family, he seemed extremely shy.
But after gradually integrating into this group, he began to show his own enthusiasm. During actual combat training, he always whipped his peers in Konoha with just the right amount of skill.
At this stage, Gaara is almost able to crush the Twelve Ninjas.
"Naruto!" Hinata came over from a distance, looked at the injured Naruto, and asked worriedly: "Naruto-kun, are you okay?"
Naruto forced a smile:
"It's okay. By the way, Hinata, where's Sakura? Is she okay?"
Hinata's brows were almost wrinkled into a "川" shape, but she still turned her head and looked behind her, and replied in a low voice:
"She's fine."
"I'm glad you're okay." Naruto breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice: "Let's go, let's continue, the battle has just begun!"
Seeing that Naruto was indeed fine, Sasuke didn't intend to continue to care about him.
"Just stop embarrassing yourself!"
Sasuke said this coldly without even looking at Naruto, then he left the place with his ninja sword in hand to look for a new lone White Zetsu.
After leaving, Sasuke thought about it and still felt that something might happen to Naruto, so he did not leave Naruto and Hinata too far away.
On the other side, Shino, Shikamaru, Rock Lee, Neji and others performed extremely well.
Whether working as a team of three or individually, they are already able to fight back and forth with some solitary White Zetsu and not lose the upper hand.
In addition to the local strong men of Konoha, Deidara and Kurotsuchi also joined the battle.
They and Gaara, as outsiders, also showed great potential as ninjas.
"Crack--" Deidara raised his index and middle fingers, detonating the explosive clay in the distance.
boom--
With a loud bang, after Gaara, he also took down a White Zetsu. Deidara was very excited, and he clenched his fists and looked at Kurotsuchi not far away.
"..."
Kurotsuchi had no intention of paying any attention to Deidara.
far away.
"Huh..." Kakashi's face turned pale. After killing a White Zetsu with his kunai, he looked at the edge of the battlefield and whispered, "Is that... the student Yin Yue assigned to us?"
He had just recovered from a serious illness and looked extremely weak.
Kai said excitedly:
"Yeah, I've found a successor, Kakashi. Let's compete to see whose child will have a better future!"
