Chapter 143 Successful Escape, End of the Sand Village Trip

Chapter 143 Successful Escape, End of the Sand Village Trip

"You two brats, go first."

Tsunade frowned, noticing that Konoha ninjas were rushing to her aid in the distance.

These past few days, hiding from the Sand Village's pursuit, have left Tsunade covered in dust and looking utterly disheveled.

I was already seething with anger inside.

She ate a specially made soldier's ration pill tailored to her own needs, and after restoring her chakra, she turned to look at the group of Sunagakure ninjas.

"You really enjoy chasing, don't you?"

Tsunade slammed her fist into the ground, causing the desert to ripple like a wave.

Earth escape·Tubo!

She possesses the "Earth" chakra nature transformation and can also use some Earth Release ninjutsu.

The reason it's not used much on a regular basis is that it can easily defeat enemies with its superhuman strength.

She is currently suffering from hemophobia and cannot bear to see blood. In the past few days, she has been trying her best to control the injury to the extent of internal injury so that she can avoid seeing blood.

The same applies to using "Earth Release: Earth Wave"—as long as it breaks the enemy's leg, it's fine as long as it doesn't draw blood.

Tsunade, who is an expert in medicine, could do this with ease.

"Aaaaaah!"

"Shh...shh, the sand is moving!"

With Tsunade's fist as the boundary, a large fan-shaped area in front of her was swaying like ocean waves.

The range and power of ninjutsu depend on the individual's understanding of "ninjutsu" and the amount of chakra they possess.

With the blood of the Senju clan flowing through her veins and possessing the "Yin Seal," Tsunade can unleash this ninjutsu with a very wide range.

In an instant, cries of agony filled the air.

Kurenai Yuhi and Asuma Sarutobi heard the commotion behind them and thought to themselves, "As expected of the Legendary Sannin."

Immediately, Kurenai thought of Kiyoshi again.

I was worried about whether Kiyoshi would be able to get out safely.

"Don't worry about him, Kiyoshi will come out safely."

Sarutobi Asuma wasn't good at comforting people; he could only scratch his head.

"Sunagakure ninja, are you trying to break the alliance?"

The Konoha ninjas who rushed over were furious when they saw that their beloved Lady Tsunade looked so haggard.

They all used their preferred ninjutsu to intercept the attackers.

The ninjutsu of Thousand Needles, Fire Release, and Wind Release flew wildly, making the scene chaotic.

Struggling with the irregular, constantly shifting sand beneath their feet, the Sand Village ninjas were unable to maintain their footing or use it as leverage to jump away.

All that could be seen was a dense mass of ninjutsu flying over, and more than a dozen Sand Village ninjas died as soon as they met.

"Damn it, the Konoha ninjas are here."

Fujijuro stomped hard on the desert, creating a crater five meters in diameter, interrupting Tsunade's Earth Release ninjutsu.

The number of people making contact is increasing, and more Konoha ninja will definitely continue to arrive.

The attempt to block the news had already failed at this point!

"We're retreating!"

Fujijuro was a ninja specializing in taijutsu, and his personality was decisive; he chose to retreat without hesitation.

"call……"

Tsunade exhaled a breath from her bright red lips.

Such ninjutsu is extremely taxing on her.

Just as Tsunade was about to drag her tired body into the Land of Fire to recover her chakra, she saw a black dot flying in from the sky.

Vulture?

Tsunade thought of this.

But as the black dot got closer, Tsunade could make out some of its outline, which made her abandon her previous idea.

Suddenly, a possibility popped into my head.

Could it be Uchiha Kiyoshi?

The other Konoha ninjas also noticed Tsunade staring at the sky and immediately looked up curiously.

Hyuga Nobuhiko's eyes widened slightly as he pointed upwards and said:

"There's someone flying in the sky!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone stared at the top.

Be wary of who the newcomers are; if they are from Sunagakure, a fierce battle is on the horizon.

"What are its characteristics?"

Naoto Nara, a Konoha ninja, asked.

"The Uchiha clan's flame fan crest."

"Uchiha?"

Kurenai Yuhi heard this and her face showed disbelief.

I've never heard of Kiyoshi being able to fly.

It's important to know that flying is an extremely rare ability, and it's quite common among ninjas.

Most people use flying summoned beasts to gain the ability to fly.

"Lady Tsunade, I'm back."

Kiyoshi's figure slowly descended from the sky, gradually reducing the swirling aura around his body.

This desert was seemingly endless. After escaping from Chiyo a few days ago, Kiyoshi had been searching for high ground and using this technique to glide and travel.

"You've got some skills, kid."

Tsunade smiled.

It was truly unexpected that Kiyoshi would return in this way.

"Kiyoshi, are you hurt?"

Yuhi Kurenai jogged over and asked. She could see that Kiyoshi's robes had turned brown, which were traces of dried blood.

"no."

Kiyoshi shook his head.

The blood on his body was that of a Sand Village ninja; he had very few wounds.

I've also encountered Sunagakure troops by chance these past few days, but all of them ended without incident.

With the "Orochi-ryu Substitution Technique," as long as the injury isn't too severe, it can be avoided by shedding the outer skin.

Using this trick, Kiyoshi has avoided being hurt several times.

It can only be said that Orochimaru is quite adept at saving his life, and this move is also the ninjutsu that Orochimaru uses most often.

Once Kiyoshi has undergone "software modification," his ability to survive will continue to increase.

"Don't worry about me so much, Hong."

Kiyoshi smiled lightly.

"We are... comrades."

Kurenai Yuhi whispered.

"So you were just companions?"

Kiyoshi's tone seemed to betray a hint of disappointment.

"Eh."

A flicker of panic crossed Kurenai's red eyes.

What does that mean?

In Kiyoshi's heart, is their relationship more than just that of companions?

"Yeah, they must be companions."

Sarutobi Asuma didn't understand the implied meaning.

Deeply influenced by the Will of Fire, the pure-blooded Sarutobi Asuma has a special feeling for "comrades" on these two occasions.

Those are incredibly sacred words; "bonds" are born here.

"Let's...let's get going first, the Sand Ninja will be here soon."

Kurenai lowered her eyes and quickly turned away.

Seeing Kurenai's shy expression, Kiyoshi's pupil power increased slightly, and a faint crimson glint appeared in his eyes.

That's the fun of raising a child.

Take a blank sheet of paper that has nothing on it except white.

Dyeing yourself your own color is a memorable experience.

"Then let's go."

When he opened his eyes again, Kiyoshi's gaze was calm.

This trip to Sunagakure was a great success.

Not only did they successfully complete the plan, but they also gained eye power and some ninjutsu.

He had already planted a seed among Ye Cang and his apprentice, waiting for the next opportunity to temporarily reopen the business.

Yekura, who wants to avenge her previous defeat, and Masaki, a kind-hearted man who leaked his teacher's ninjutsu.

These are Kiyoshi's eye power packs, which will become his essential resources for continuing to grow stronger!

But that's for next time; we'll have to wait for the right opportunity to meet again.

The person closest to Kiyoshi is... Mikoto.

Now that a major battle is about to break out, Mikoto and Fugaku will certainly not take any further steps.

…………

Several days have passed.

Kiyoshi returned to Konoha.
