Chapter 299 Wood Escape

Inside the Vajra barrier.

Due to their limited mobility, the Third Hokage and Saruma were ultimately no match for each other after defeating more than twenty Root ninjas.

The Enma, who claimed to have an indestructible body, was cut all over by Danzo's wind style and fell in a pool of blood.

The Third Hokage was also forced to stop because he lost his means of transportation. He leaned against a big tree and was surrounded by the remaining thirty or so Root ninjas.

The penetrating wound caused by Kato Dan's sneak attack continued to bleed, and his left arm was also cut off by Danzo. He looked very miserable.

Danzo held a kunai in his hand, from which extended a sharp blade made of wind-attribute chakra. It was this "vacuum sword" that had just cut off one of Sarutobi Hiruzen's arms.

"cough cough..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen coughed up a lot of blood, helplessness and unwillingness filled his heart, "It seems that this old man has to stop here."

Danzo walked up to him and raised his vacuum sword high, "Goodbye, partner. I'll take good care of Biwako for you."

"You beast!"

Just when the vacuum sword was about to kill the Third Hokage, something strange happened.

First, the big tree that Sarutobi Hiruzen was leaning against suddenly stretched out its branches to block the attack of the vacuum sword.

At the same time, Sarutobi Hiruzen merged into the tree stump and disappeared.

Then the entire ground began to tremble, and one towering tree after another rose from the ground, surrounding all the Root Ninjas including Danzo and Kato Dan, and countless branches shot out from all directions.

Danzo's face was extremely gloomy. He jumped and turned to avoid the overwhelming branches, but the attacks were too dense. Even he could not break through the siege for a while. He swung the vacuum sword with all his strength to cut off the branches and kept cursing: "Why is Tsunade here! Is Uchiha Setsuna a shit eater!"

Soon, everyone was completely submerged in the sea of trees.

Danzo's guess was correct. It was Tsunade who saved Sarutobi Hiruzen at the critical moment.

In the sky, Tsunade, wearing tactical gloves, clenched her hands to maintain chakra output.

"Wood Release, Sea of Trees Descent" filled all the space within the Diamond Barrier, and the big trees continued to extend outwards and squeeze the barrier.

Outside the barrier, a dozen Root ninjas were struggling to maintain hand seals, and their chakra was being transferred to the barrier at all costs.

The leading captain shouted, "Before receiving the order from Master Danzo, the barrier must not be destroyed!"

But there are differences between people.

The Yin Seal opens.

The purple lines started from the diamond-shaped mark on Tsunade's forehead and expanded across her face, adding a wild beauty to the princess's fair and pretty face.

And Tsunade's chakra level instantly rose several levels, "Break it for me!"

The Diamond Barrier was ultimately unable to withstand the power of the Wood Release and broke apart. The Root Ninjas responsible for maintaining the barrier from the outside were backlashed and all vomited blood and lost consciousness.

Only then did Tsunade release her hands, and the tree world stopped extending.

With Tsunade as the center, in the circular space with a diameter of one hundred meters below, there are nothing but trees, like a huge green vortex.

And unlike the lifeless tree stumps during World War II, now there are real big trees with lush branches and leaves, full of vitality. They are entangled with each other, like giant pythons overlapping each other, indistinguishable from each other.

After more than ten years of baptism of yang chakra, and the awakening of the Samsara Eye which brought about an all-round strengthening of the soul, body, vitality and a series of other qualities, Tsunade can finally use the Wood Release Secret Technique in the true sense!

The Wood Release used by Her Royal Highness the Princess is only inferior to the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama, in terms of range and tree strength.

This is because her vitality and chakra are far inferior to those of Hashirama Senju, and she has not even learned any fairy techniques.

I believe that as time goes by, Tsunade's Wood Release will be able to catch up with Hashirama Senju, or even surpass him!

Tsunade formed a seal with one hand again.

"Shadow Clone Technique",

Six shadow clones appeared, four of them quickly fell to four directions, and then released ninjutsu,

"Ninja Technique, Four Purple Flame Formation",

The purple flame barrier once again surrounded the land.

She slightly hooked her right index finger, and two big trees continued to extend upwards, bringing the man and the monkey to her.

The remaining two shadow clones used palm magic to heal the two of them.

Tsunade said to Sarutobi Hiruzen proudly: "Old man, I came all the way to save you, aren't you touched?"

At this moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to curse: Why didn't you take action earlier in the barrier? Why did you have to wait until now? My right arm! It just left me like that! I loved it so much!

However, he dared not say these words, and could only express his gratitude. Sarutobi Hiruzen said sincerely: "It still has to be you, Tsuna. Those two traitors can't be relied on at all. We still have to rely on our Tsuna at the critical moment.

If it weren't for you, I, the teacher, would definitely not be alive today."

“Stop, stop, stop, stop.”

Tsunade made a "stop" gesture with both hands and called for a stop, "Old man, you are becoming more and more disgusting."

Sarutobi Hiruzen was full of black lines: I XX you OO, OO you XX......

It’s fine that Jiraiya stopped Orochimaru, but why is Tsunade here?

Of course, that is the masterpiece of our wise, mighty, great and handsome Xuanwu who has long seen through everything!

Through Orochimaru's unusual behavior and the rumors in the village, Xuanwu guessed that his defection was not far away.

He thought that Danzo, who had killed Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu one after another, would definitely take the opportunity to cause trouble, so he had been using the little snakes to keep an eye on the movements of the Third Hokage and the Root Ninjas.

As expected, tonight, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was handling government affairs, went out with three people after Kato Dan finished his report. It was obvious that it was related to Orochimaru.

Xuanwu immediately notified Tsunade to follow.

Her Highness the Princess, who possesses the Samsara Eye, can not only see through colors, but her detection range reaches 20 kilometers, making tracking Sarutobi Hiruzen a piece of cake.

As for why she had to wait until Sarutobi Hiruzen was severely beaten and had a broken arm and was about to die before taking action, it was of course because Her Royal Highness the Princess was not very happy when she heard Danzo say that the old man was treating Xuanwu unfairly, so she did it on purpose!

Back to topic.

After rescuing Sarutobi Hiruzen and Saruma, Tsunade did not relax. Instead, she stared at the sea of trees below with some solemnity. The blue and white light of the Rinnegan shone brightly in the night sky.

"Old man, you didn't give the things that Xuanwu and I brought back from the Sky Ninja Village to anyone else, did you?"

"Why would I give away something so dangerous? Of course it was put in the restricted room, etc."

The Third Hokage stared down in disbelief, "You mean..."

He hasn't finished speaking yet,

"Roar~!"

A huge purple snake broke through the trees and soared into the sky, crashing into Tsunade.

Zero Tail returns to the world!

...

In the distant sky, Jiraiya and Orochimaru were both covered in wounds.

Jiraiya, who was panting, held a blue ball in his right hand, while Orochimaru, who was opposite him, had a Chidori in his right hand.

"Hoo, hoo, hoo, Orochimaru, can't you just come back with me!"

"Haha, Jiraiya, stop being naive!"
