Chapter 241 Stalemate

Boom~

Gamabunta fell from the sky and landed next to Namikaze Minato on the edge of the battlefield.

"Minato boy, what are you going to do next?"

Gamabunta asked.

When he said this, he kept staring at Lao Zi in the distance. He was obviously a little afraid of the current Lao Zi, and his tone was rarely serious.

Minato heard this, thought for a moment, and said: "The ability of the Four Tails is Melting Release. If we fight head-on, it's not easy for me to get close, so..."

"so."

Gamabunta looked back at Namikaze Minato.

Suddenly, I had a bad feeling in my heart, as if some big trouble was about to happen to me.

Sure enough, Namikaze Minato's next words confirmed his guess.

Just listen to what he said: "So I need Toad Boss to attract the other party's attention, and then I will find an opportunity to take action."

"No! Absolutely not!"

Hearing Namikaze Minato's proposal, Gamabunta shook his head like a rattle and refused to agree even to death.

"One hundred pounds."

Namikaze Minato raised a finger and said with a smile.

"What?"

Gamabunta didn't know why.

Namikaze Minato explained: "One hundred kilograms of top-quality tobacco leaves from the Land of Birds."

"Mumble~"

Gamabunta swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty: "This mission is somewhat..."

"Two hundred pounds."

Namikaze Minato raised a finger again.

"no."

Before Gamabunta could finish speaking, Namikaze Minato raised his third finger and said, "Three hundred kilograms, no more."

"Okay, just three hundred pounds."

Hearing this, Gamabunta changed his confused look and his tone became upright and awe-inspiring.

Just listen to him say: "It doesn't matter what the tobacco leaves are. We have signed a contract and we should help each other. Since you have something to ask for, I will not stand idly by. Minato boy, you can take care of what happens next."

As he spoke, Gamabunta pulled out the short sword from his waist, used both legs to jump up, and pounced straight towards Lao Zi, whose two tails were exposed in the distance.

Seeing his energetic look, Namikaze Minato chuckled and shook his head, then used the 'Instant Technique' and followed quietly.

Obviously, the bargaining between the two just now was mostly a joke.

······

at the same time.

The edge of the battlefield.

Qing Ming only heard Gamabunta shouting: "Hey! Try my 'Toad Cut' with a Short Sword!"

Then, he saw him swinging the short knife in his hand, falling from the sky, and struck Lao Zi.

Well.

Calling it a short sword is a bit inaccurate.

Because this "short" is relative to Gamabunta's huge size. For normal humans like Qingmei or Lao Zi, it is a giant blade more than three meters long.

Looking at the giant blade coming towards him, a trace of violent emotion flashed through Lao Zi's animal-turned pupils.

He didn't retreat or dodge, but he suddenly raised his hands, making a gesture of catching the white blade with his bare hands, and actually caught Gamabunta's slash.

Huge force came from the short sword, and a "boom" was heard. The ground under Lao Zi's feet exploded instantly, and the whole person fell into the earth from the waist down.

Even with the protection of the tailed beast coat, Lao Zi still let out a painful roar, and then saw him swing his tail behind him and hit Gamabunta directly.

The howling wind sounded, and sensing the threat coming from the two tails, Gamabunta did not choose to resist.

He pulled out his short sword with great force, and then immediately jumped back.

Pa~pa~

The two tails fell one after another and hit the ground, leaving two cracks and causing the ground to shake.

Seeing that the enemy was dodging, Lao Zi didn't make any pause, and immediately raised his hands, aiming at Gamabunta in mid-air.

Seeing this familiar scene, Qing Ming knew that the other party was going to use the same trick he used against him again.

Sure enough, the dark red chakra on the surface of his hands instantly extended, condensed into two 'tailed beast claws', and grabbed Gamabunta directly.

At this time, Gamabunta was in mid-air, with nowhere to rely on, and his situation was very dangerous.

However, Gamabunta was rich in combat experience, and he immediately thought of a solution. He quickly formed seals with his hands, and in the blink of an eye, he performed the ninjutsu - Water Release: Teppanyama!

Two water balls were spat out by him, and they accurately hit the two 'tailed beast claws', cleverly missing their extension direction.

Gamabunta wiped the two 'tailed beast claws' and landed safely on the ground.

Then, he took off in a short distance and avoided the looking back of the two 'tailed beast claws'.

Seeing this, Lao Zi was very unwilling and wanted to continue the pursuit.

But at this moment, a feeling of extreme danger came over.

Almost instinctively, Lao Zi controlled the tail behind him to protect his back.

Stab~

A kunai wrapped in Wind Release Chakra tore Lao Zi's tail and stabbed into his back, but it was blocked by the tailed beast coat on his body.

Sensing the slightest hint of chill coming from behind, Lao Zi felt frightened in his heart.

If he hadn't reacted in time and blocked it with his tail, Namikaze Minato's kunai would definitely tear his tailed beast coat apart.

By then, even if he doesn't die, he will still be seriously injured.

Yes, it was Namikaze Minato who struck this blow.

Just now, he saw the right opportunity and took action decisively, using the sharp characteristics of the Wind Escape Chakra to kill Lao Zi with one blow.

Unfortunately, the crisis instinct of Old Purple or the Four-Tails was too sharp, and it actually blocked his attack at the critical moment.

This made him fail.

With a pity in his heart, Minato Namikaze activated the "Flying Thunder God Technique" and disappeared on the spot.

Pah~

The tail slapped on the ground.

Seeing Minato Namikaze disappear, Old Purple became more and more irritable.

He opened his mouth and spit out magma balls one by one, hitting Gamabunta.

Obviously, he regarded Gamabunta as an object of venting.

Not only that, for his own safety, he also performed the "Melting Chakra Mode", and once again condensed a layer of lava armor on his body surface.

However, unlike the simple humanoid armor before, this time the lava armor also includes the tail part.

Moreover, this part is much larger than his body, and it looks like he is dragging two lava rivers behind him, which is very powerful.

It must be said that compared to the Five-Tails' 'Boiling Style', the Four-Tails' 'Melting Style' is obviously more difficult to deal with.

An agile fighter like Minato Namikaze can easily play with the Five-Tails Jinchuriki Han as long as he keeps the rhythm, thus forcing him to retreat.

But it is not possible to deal with Old Purple. With his lava armor, it is impossible to play with him, let alone get close to him.

A few days ago, on the front battlefield, because there were too many ninjas on his side, Old Purple did not use this trick, and Minato Namikaze could easily contain him.

Now, without any scruples, his difficulty has doubled.

"Fortunately, I still have Bunta to help, otherwise it would be a bit troublesome!"

In secret, Minato Namikaze looked at Gamabunta who was about to perform water style ninjutsu against Old Purple and muttered.

Today is over.
