"That's right! Naruto-nii can definitely do it."

With a smile, Obito said the same thing.

"The first thing we need to do is solve the problem at hand."

The number of puppets around them gradually increased, and they pounced on them one by one.

Sakura slammed her fist into the ground, and the entire ground collapsed in an instant.

"Super Beast Fake Painting, Bird."

The scroll was unfurled, the brush fell, and in a few moments a large bird spread its wings and flew out from the scroll, carrying Sai and the other three on its back.

"Obito, Rin, you two go after them. Given the current situation, things definitely won't be peaceful on Sara's side. We'll stall for time here."

Sakura quickly offered her idea. There was a lot to do now, including dealing with An Lushan and Sara, but both of these were headaches.

In addition to the dragon vein and a host of other matters, this is no simple matter.

Fortunately, they still had their companions.

"but?"

"It's up to you now."

Sakura interrupted Rin's voice and pulled Sai off the giant bird.

Below them were countless puppets.

"Ninjutsu, Motang."

Sai formed a hand seal, and as he landed, the water beneath his feet turned into a pool of ink.

Meanwhile, Sakura, standing to the side, delivered a powerful punch.

The ground shook violently, a huge crater appeared, and cracks spread outwards. Ink splashed up, and even the puppets were thrown into the air.

"Super Beast Pseudo-Drawing, Biosphere."

Sai unleashed all his chakra, and the splashing ink transformed into birds, while beasts appeared in the ink pools on the ground.

In an instant, countless creatures emerged. Although their numbers were not as great as the puppets, they were still quite numerous, and their strength had increased significantly.

"Qi Fist".

As An Lushan walked towards her step by step, Sakura clenched her fists.

"I learned this move from Hinata, give it a try!"

Drawing upon the open palm technique of Hyuga Gentle Fist, a powerful punch capable of long-range attacks was created using the same techniques.

With a single punch, the air in front of him was compressed into a single, invisible, gigantic air fist that slammed directly toward An Lushan.

boom!

"How about it!"

The punch landed solidly, producing a loud bang.

"Sakura, I don't think it will be of much use. He'll recover in no time anyway."

"If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute."

Sakura retorted to Sai, and sometimes Sai can be just so infuriating, even though it's true.

As expected, when the smoke cleared, An Lushan's giant puppet, though indeed damaged, quickly returned to normal in the blink of an eye, just as Sai had said.

"How are we supposed to fight this?"

Sakura complained, "There's no point in fighting at all. Fighting someone who can't get hurt and can regenerate even if they fall apart is just asking for trouble."

Just like comparing physical strength between humans and robots, it's nothing but courting death.

"what!"

An Lushan in front of them unleashed a cannon shot, charging towards Sakura and Sai.

Sai's bird flew over and took the two of them away, barely managing to dodge the attack.

Bang! A significant portion of the Super Beast Imitation Painting was destroyed, but Mo Tang replenished it.

Sai's face had turned considerably paler.

"Can it still hold on?"

"It's barely acceptable, don't worry."

Sai's ultimate technique is not to be used casually; it consumes an extremely large amount of chakra. Sai is not a monster with overflowing chakra, and he quickly began to feel unable to hold on.

"Let's split up, especially Sara's side. We don't know if Obito and Rin can manage."

As Sakura spoke, Sai nodded in agreement.

And the voice came from An Lushan in front of him.

“What can you do? You can’t do anything. Sarah too, I don’t even need to lift a finger, there are other people over there dealing with him.”

"I'm not alone now!"

Sakura and Sai's faces fell, and they immediately understood.

dawn!

Of course, there was another person with An Lushan, someone they also knew: Xiao!

"Obito and Rin!"

Sakura called out, and Sai also thought of flying over, but An Lushan wouldn't let them succeed.

He wanted them to watch helplessly as their companion walked down a path to his death.

Another shot was fired.

An Lushan seemed to have adapted to his body, and his speed began to increase, catching up with Sai Sakura in just a few steps.

"hateful."

Sai and Sakura were blocked. An Lushan stood in front of them like a mountain, so high and so huge, that it was impossible to climb over.

An Lushan threw a punch, accompanied by a gleeful laugh.

Sai and Sakura jumped away, and the bird sitting on it was punched back to its original form—ink droplets fell into the ink pond.

"Sai!"

Sakura and Sai were going in opposite directions when they jumped down, and An Lushan had been watching that moment closely.

His target wasn't Sakura, but Sai, who was clearly weakened by excessive chakra depletion.

A huge fist rushed forward, and the next second Sai was hit by the fist and fell down.

The surrounding birds had already scattered in all directions, and it was not possible to pick up Sai so quickly. Sai himself was not in good condition, and there was no way he could escape.

Wood Release!

Wooden fist.

Just as Sai was about to take a gamble, a voice came and reassured him a lot.

Responding to the sound, Sai was not hit by the opponent's huge fist, but An Lushan's huge body was hit by the sudden wooden fist, and his whole body was turned far to the side.

In just a short while, small figures jumped over and rescued Sai.

It's Kakashi.

"Captain Yamato!"

Sakura was overjoyed as she watched the figure descend from the sky.

With support now, I felt a little relieved. Sai couldn't possibly be in much better shape, so Sakura would basically have to deal with it all by herself.

With this support, the pressure has been reduced considerably.

"A few more? Everyone says that Konoha ninjas like to meddle in other people's business, and that's certainly true."

An Lushan's voice echoed softly as he regained his footing, and the injuries he had sustained from the wooden fist attack healed in the blink of an eye.

"This guy."

Captain Yamato also noticed this extraordinary recovery ability and couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

This is a big problem, no wonder Sakura and Sai are having a hard time dealing with it.

"Then, let's continue."

"Konoha ninjas!"

An Lushan's voice fell, and he began his own actions—

Meanwhile, Naruto also emerged from the ruins.

"Ouch, that hurts!"

Naruto's face was covered in blood. Not only had he been knocked away, but he was also hit by falling objects, which buried him underneath. He was incredibly unlucky.

"Where's that big guy? Damn it."

Naruto wiped his face, jumped away, and headed towards An Lushan.

And on the other side:

Obito and Rin also arrived at Sara and the Loulan people's side, just as they were getting into trouble with the puppets.

The people of Loulan were also fighting, with Sara leading the charge.

"I've got Lin!"

"Oh!"

Two figures flew directly closer and jumped down, while the Super Beast Imitation Painting also became a great helper, attacking the puppet from time to time in the sky.

Behind them, birds and beasts kept coming, all thanks to Sai.

The crimson robes of the divine beings fluttered gently, and a pair of Rinnegan eyes silently watched this scene—
