I am the most popular character in Naruto!

The situation on the battlefield was not as simple and easy as the ninjas of the Land of Lightning had imagined.

To the left of the Land of Lightning's main force was a force of tens of thousands from the Land of Earth. Onoki floated quietly in the air, looking at the arrogant Third Raikage, A, and sighed quietly.

To the right of the main force of the Land of Lightning was a 5,000-strong army of Konoha ninja, led by two women.

A blonde woman with large breasts stood there casually with her arms crossed, looking at the army of five thousand from the Land of Lightning before her with a half-smile.

The other one had fair skin and pink hair, bright eyes and white teeth, and was charming and beautiful. She wore a light purple kimono, held a bright red parasol, and had a captivating smile on her lips.

The pink-haired girl didn't look like she was there to fight at all; instead, she looked like a noble lady on a spring outing.

Those in the know could immediately recognize that the two women standing at the front of the Konoha army were the rarest medical ninjas in the entire ninja world, and also two medical ninjas at the pinnacle of their craft: Tsunade Senju and Senju Chiaki.

The army of the Land of Lightning is indeed powerful and aggressive.

But how much damage can they inflict on these two lovely ladies?

One second they wiped out the Konoha ninjas, and the next second they jumped up again. With the addition of the two big breasts, the five thousand Konoha ninjas were more than enough to fearlessly and calmly defeat any ninjas.

"Tsk, tsk."

Nara Shikaku stood on a high point at the back of the line, shaking his head with a sigh as a commander. He pointed to several divided battlefields and said to Yamanaka Inoichi and Akimichi Choza, who were protecting him, "Look, this battle has completely turned into a large chessboard."

"The Land of Lightning, the Land of Earth, and the Land of Fire—these three forces are like chess pieces, waiting for me to move them!"

For a moment, Nara Shikaku felt a surge of heroic spirit. Even though he couldn't go to the front lines, the tactical aspects of this war without gunpowder were enough to get people excited and unable to stop.

"I won't watch it, I can't understand it anyway."

Yamanaka Inoichi rolled his eyes and turned his head away decisively. Akimichi Choza grinned sheepishly, took out a piece of jerky, and stuffed it into his mouth.

He seemed to say nothing, yet he also seemed to say everything.

"Tch, you guys are so boring."

Nara Shikaku pouted and said to his two closest friends with a hint of exasperation, "If you had even a fraction of curiosity, you wouldn't be completely unable to understand what I'm saying right now!"

"Tch, she's not curious at all, she's just too lazy to talk to you, so she's pretending to be a contrarian."

Yamanaka Inoichi waved his hand and bluntly revealed the truth, stabbing Nara Shikaku in the heart.

"Want to eat?"

Akimichi Choza took out another piece of dried meat and offered it to Nara Shikaku as a gesture of reassurance.

He seemed to say nothing, yet he also seemed to say everything.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Nara Shikaku coughed, snatched the jerky, and glared at his two brothers: "You two are truly hopeless!"

"Yes, yes, yes, if you think so highly of Qianqiu, why don't you just confess to her?"

Yamanaka Inoichi took a piece of dried meat from Akimichi Choza's arms and chewed it. The atmosphere here was not like a war, but rather like a casual chat.

Indeed, Konoha's tactics were the easiest at the beginning; they only needed to let the ninjas from the Land of Lightning go, and that would be the first step in their strategy.

There's no need to think about fighting at all; all you need to do is figure out how to survive the bombardment from the Land of Lightning, then pretend you're no match for them and let them go.

Huh? Confessing your feelings?

Nara Shikaku looked at Yamanaka Inoichi with surprise. Yamanaka Inoichi counted on his fingers and said, "Look, Chiaki is strong, beautiful, and willing to discuss tactics with you. Isn't she the best choice for you?"

"Eat, eat!"

This time, Akimichi Choza didn't stuff Nara Shikaku with jerky. Instead, he turned to Yamanaka Inoichi, gave him a pitying smile, and stuffed the jerky into Yamanaka Inoichi's hand.

Nara Shikaku gave Yamanaka Inoichi, who was full of doubt, a disdainful look and said speechlessly, "Big brother, Chiaki is a yuri, she likes girls, why should I go and join in?"

Yamanaka Inoichi took a bite of the jerky, puzzled, only to find it unbearably salty. He then shoved it back into Akimichi Choza's arms. "No, how can two girls end up together? I'm not being prejudiced, I just think it's unreliable."

"That's none of your business."

Nara Shikaku rolled his eyes. "Anyway, Chiaki isn't my type, and I won't choose her."

"Why? What's wrong with her?"

Yamanaka Inoichi, determined to get to the bottom of things, questioned Nara Shikaku, who wore an extremely complicated expression.

"It's because she's so beautiful, so strong, and her character is perfect in every way that I feel I can't handle her."

"My wish is actually very simple: to marry an ordinary woman, have an ordinary child, and live an ordinary life, that's all."

"I'd better pass on someone of Qianqiu's caliber. I'd rather not."

Yamanaka Inoichi looked disappointed. "I was just saying you two could make a beautiful story, what a little strategist and a great beauty?"

"Get lost, and focus on the battle!"

"A fight is about to break out!"

Nara Shikaku said irritably, his eyes narrowing slightly.

There are too many people who like Chiaki, but so what?

Ultimately, Chiaki's happiness depended on her own choices.

Since she likes girls, then we should just wish her well, right?

Chapter 299 The Battle of Thunder and Fire

"All troops! Forward!"

"Clear a path for our Third Raikage!"

Tsuchikage shouted at the Land of Lightning's ninja army, and instantly, the army sprang into action, charging wildly towards the Konoha troops.

"Hoohoho!"

"Fight, fight, fight!"

"Sons of Konoha! Your father is here!"

"Hahaha! Kill them!"

The ninjas from the Land of Lightning, cursing and swearing, charged toward the Leaf Village's camp, and it looked like they were about to clash.

"Konoha ninja! Hear my command!"

Just then, Tsunade took a step forward and shouted in a bold voice, "Stop the advance of the ninjas from the Land of Lightning!"

"Shou!"

"Earth Escape! Earth Current City Wall!"

The ninjas at the forefront of Konoha immediately formed hand seals, and a massive wall slowly rose up, blocking the advance of the Land of Lightning ninjas.

"A mere city wall! Break it down!"

Tu Tai shouted, "Front row! Charge!"

"Lightning Release! Raging Thunder Tiger!"

"Ouch!"

The ninjas at the forefront of the Land of Lightning formed hand seals, and a large amount of lightning-attribute chakra gathered around their bodies. The next second, the lightning-attribute chakra formed a huge striped tiger. The huge striped tiger was surrounded by lightning bolts as thick as an arm, as if a thunder tiger had descended to earth, its majesty beyond words.

There are actually thousands of these Thunder Tigers!

With shouts and cheers, the ninjas of the Land of Lightning rushed towards the earthen walls.

The seemingly impenetrable earthen walls were shattered by wave after wave of lightning tigers. Lightning chakra naturally counters earth chakra, and combined with the naturally strong physiques of the Land of Lightning ninjas, they forcefully broke through the earthen walls and breached the Konoha ninjas' defenses.

"Ula!"

"The ninjas of Konoha are nothing special!"

The ninjas who had smashed through the city walls in the Land of Lightning cheered loudly, "Charge! Follow me and break in!"

Large numbers of Lightning Country ninjas poured into the large hole in the wall of the Earth Stream Castle, desperately rushing towards the retreating Konoha ninjas.

Every now and then, the ninjas from the Land of Lightning unleashed long-range Lightning Release ninjutsu, striking the ninjas from Konoha.

The Konoha ninjas were forced into a series of defeats by the Land of Lightning ninjas, and the battle line stretched for at least several hundred meters!

Tsuchida, who was leading the Land of Lightning ninjas forward, felt that the whole process was going unusually smoothly, which made him feel that something was wrong.

But he couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong; he could only say that he was trying his best to slow down the advance of the Land of Lightning ninjas.

However, the entire rhythm of the war was completely controlled by Nara Shikaku. He squatted on a high place, his gaze sweeping over the entire battlefield, toying with two shogi pieces he had somehow acquired, and said with a smile, "This pocket formation on this side is complete."

"Next, let's see what the Raikage does."

"It's truly unbelievable that the Third Raikage is actually preparing to challenge ten thousand people from the Land of Earth all by himself?"

"Isn't that going too far?"

Nara Shikaku shoved the chess piece back into his pocket, stood up, and began pointing at it from below as if surveying the landscape.

"Let's continue with the plan. Next, it's time for Qianqiu to make his move."

As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of pink light appeared on the battlefield, followed by countless pink chakra threads wrapping around the retreating Konoha ninjas, spreading across the entire battlefield like a giant spider web.

Holding a bright red parasol, Chiaki reached out and pointed in the air, precisely placing each chakra line onto the Konoha ninja.

"Secret Technique: Life Sharing!"

Her clear voice rang out across the entire battlefield, and the Konoha ninjas, feeling the life force boost from the pink chakra threads, roared in unison.

The Konoha ninjas, who had been injured by the reckless fighting style of the Land of Lightning ninjas, recovered their health and, with the life-sharing chakra threads, launched an attack even more frantically than the Land of Lightning ninjas.

Ninjutsu, taijutsu, and ninja tool throwing!

Every method that could be used to attack was employed by the Konoha ninjas, and in an instant, the battle situation between the Land of Lightning and the Land of Fire was reversed.

"not good!"

Tsuchida was startled and quickly ordered the ninjas of the Land of Lightning to launch a counterattack.

However, the resistance from the Konoha ninjas helped him break free from his previous sense of unease.

That's right, that's how it should be. The previous Konoha ninjas just didn't seem right.

However, his way of thinking played right into Nara Shikaku's calculations.

Chiaki, holding a parasol, turned to Tsunade with a slight smile, "Sister, I'll leave this place to you for now. I'm going to check on the Land of Earth."
