Naruto: Starting with Tsunade

Chapter 117 Should I Leave? 23

Jiraiya wasn't intimidated at all and shouted, "Who do you think you are?"

The burly man looked at the four men with a mocking expression: "What? The mission target is right in front of you, can't you recognize him?"

The bandage covering the face has been specially treated so that the eyes can see the surroundings through the bandage, but of course it cannot be compared with direct eye use, and the vision will be relatively worse.

"Who are you?"

"I am the tyrant Dokai you are looking for."

As the burly man named Dorkai spoke, he casually tossed out what he was holding.

Aokiji and the others looked closely and realized that it was a bloody human head.

They recognized the dead man's face; it was Kin'emon, the one who had been entrusted with their task.

The employer was dead. Orochimaru's face was grim. He demanded, "What happened to Momonosuke?"

"Who knows, but it probably isn't very good."

Dokai was unpredictable and his expression shifted unpredictably. One second his face was relaxed, and the next it turned extremely menacing: "But I can say with certainty that you won't have an easy time."

Aokiji narrowed his eyes slightly, then turned to the side with a serious expression and asked, "Tsunade, use your sensory abilities to help me sense this guy."

Upon receiving the instruction, Tsunade closed her eyes, focused her mind, and formed a hand seal to probe the flow of the other party's chakra.

What kind of smile appeared on Dokai's hanging mouth?

Tsunade frowned, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.

Seeing this, Aokiji quickly asked, "How is it?"

Tsunade opened her eyes, her expression grave: "Such a massive amount of chakra. Since I learned sensory ninjutsu, apart from my grandmother, I have never seen such a massive amount of chakra."

Aokiji angrily denounced Kin'emon for having incorrect information.

Wasn't it agreed that the strongest ninjas in Wano Country were the three they had just defeated?

How come a level 10 ninja suddenly appears now?

Reason told Aokiji that it was best to abandon the mission and retreat immediately.

Once the arrow is released, there's no turning back.

If he were to simply pack up and leave, not only would it affect his credibility as a representative of the Land of Fire ninjas, but all the soldiers who rebelled against him would have to be sacrificed.

He has no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it.

Aokiji said to the other person, "Jiraiya, test him with your ninjutsu."

"it is good."

Jiraiya was about to step forward and form hand seals to test the waters when he hesitated for a second, reacting, "Wait, why do I have to go and try? Why don't you go yourself?"

"Nonsense, you have the most chakra among the four of us. If you don't go up and test us, who will? We've already used up a lot of chakra in the previous battle, so we naturally need to be careful and cautious from now on."

Aokiji is absolutely right.

Jiraiya's face didn't show much reluctance, but his body was quite honest. He spat out fireballs with lightning speed. This move was very fast and not easy to dodge, making it more suitable for testing.

With the spray of fireballs, the battle officially began.

Dokai's entire body crackled with lightning.

In this state, Dokai moves extremely fast, easily dodging fire-style ninjutsu that rely on speed.

Aokiji frowned.

This is because the enemy uses Lightning Release to activate the cells in their body and move at high speed, which shows that the enemy is a ninja who is proficient in Lightning Release.

The brain works quickly to analyze the opponent, while simultaneously summoning ice chains to seal them off. If the opponent's abilities are unknown, it is best to keep a distance.

As Dokai ran, his gaze quickly swept over the ice chains, thinking to himself that it was indeed an interesting ninjutsu, but its speed was a drawback.

Taking advantage of this weakness, Dokai sped up and closed in.

A flash of lightning appeared, and a figure rushed towards him. Aokiji's eyes widened in surprise at how fast the figure was.

At this moment, if he were fighting alone, Aokiji would inevitably be knocked away by his opponent in one move. Fortunately, he had teammates around him who reacted in time.

Wind Release: Great Breakthrough.

Orochimaru formed hand seals, creating a gust of wind that carried a blade within it.

A strong wind swept in, and Dokai was thrown against his will, his back bent like a shrimp, flying backward until his toes brushed the ground before he could regain his balance.

"Using the principle of attribute counteraction, make a informed choice."

Dokai, acting as if nothing had happened, dusted himself off and said, "But your Wind Release technique isn't strong enough."

Before he could finish speaking, a gray figure pounced from behind, his fists whistling through the air.

"Is that so?"

With a roar, a punch slammed down, and with a deafening boom, the ground exploded, leaving behind a huge crater in the dust.

Looking at the still-smoking crater from a distance, Dokai nodded approvingly: "Not bad strength, but not fast enough. I wonder how your defense is..."

He put down the spiked club, quickly formed hand seals, and his entire body erupted with lightning-attribute chakra, converging in his right hand. As he threw the punch, the lightning flowed and intertwined, forming a ring of light as it left his fist, shooting out in a straight line.

Earth escape·Earth flow wall

Ice Release: Ice Rock Hall

Aokiji and Jiraiya used their respective defensive ninjutsu together. Although the outer layer of earthen wall was pierced, a layer of ice wall successfully withstood the weakened lightning release.

Looking at the broken ice wall, Aokiji was still shaken. Lightning Release was different from the other five major esoteric techniques. If he was unlucky enough to be hit, he would not only be injured, but also paralyzed, which was very bad.

The opponent is quite strong, and since there are no outsiders around, I decided not to hide my strength to avoid a mishap.

Aokiji opened and closed his eyes, his irises turning red, and two tomoe appeared near his pupils.

His companions noticed the obvious change in his eyes, and they all widened their eyes in surprise.

"Our opponents are very strong, and I don't want anything to happen to you because of me."

Aokiji spoke calmly, and Tsunade and the others listened intently, their expressions deeply moved.

As far as they knew, Aokiji disliked using the Sharingan's power, so they never expected him to go to such lengths for them.

Aokiji joked, "Alright, let's get emotional later. First, let's take down the enemy in front of us, otherwise we won't be able to explain ourselves."

Although that person is already dead...

Aokiji added in his mind.

Tsunade retorted stubbornly, "Who wants to be moved?"

Kaido remained silent, his gaze fixed on Aokiji's eyes.

Is this the guy that Lord Madara has his eye on?

Ice Release + Sharingan, two bloodline limits, no wonder he was chosen by Master Ban.

Since that's the case, then let him give everything for Lord Uchiha Madara.

He slowly unwrapped the bandages from his eyes.

These four kids are all quite strong, especially Aokiji, who has been chosen by Master Ban, so we can't let our guard down.

Noticing the other party's strange behavior, Aokiji and the others became wary.

Despite being mentally prepared, they were still taken aback when they saw the other person open their eyes and reveal a scarlet face.

"Aokiji, what's going on? Why does this guy have the same eyes as you? Could he be a member of your Uchiha clan?" Some of the companions couldn't help but ask.

"To be honest, I don't know either."

Aokiji's crimson eyes widened in astonishment.

Dokai smiled meaningfully: "Kid, you're from the Uchiha clan, right?"

Aokiji nodded in acknowledgment, then casually asked, "Who exactly are you, and why do you possess the eyes of our clan?"

Doka explained, "You're really impatient, but that's normal. Alright, since you're from the Uchiha clan, I'll tell you. I'm not a member of the Uchiha clan; I obtained these eyes by accident."

Hearing this, Aokiji became somewhat connected to it.

Based on the information provided by Elder Itachi and Kin'emon, Aokiji deduced that the Uchiha who helped Dokai rebel back then might have been Uchiha Madara.

After witnessing Madara Uchiha's power, the people here began to worship him, even escalating from fan behavior to idol behavior, trying to get close to him. As a result, Sharingan naturally became the goal they pursued.

Just as Aokiji had expected, Dokai told him all of this.

Aokiji also obtained some information, such as that everything Momonosuke and his group said was a lie, that they were all liars who were trying to deceive the demons about their love of peace.

After hearing this, Orochimaru's team was completely distraught.

Oh, this, everyone's a villain?

Isn't this bullying honest people?

"In that case, shall I leave?"

P.S.: There's one more chapter, I'll update it later. I'm currently writing it, I think.
