Naruto gritted his teeth. What a joke! He hadn't finished his mission yet.

The Queen of Loulan has to do what a queen should do, and Naruto is her knight!

"Ahhhh!"

His beard grew considerably, and chakra imbued with the aura of the Nine-Tails surged forth. Naruto's eyes began to slowly transform into beast-like pupils.

Just like that, Naruto was finally able to pull himself back from that oppressive state somewhat.

The Nine-Tails' power allowed Naruto to slowly turn the tide, but Ushita no Yorimitsu wasn't alone.

The most troublesome guy is still sniping from behind.

Sure enough, another burst of water shot towards him.

A chakra tail suddenly appeared, instantly blocking all the attacks.

Naruto, in one fell swoop, increased his strength and directly repelled Ushita.

Naruto has fully entered the Tailed Beast state, but right now, he's only in the One-Tail state.

Naruto's mind went blank. He hadn't gotten along well with Kurama, which was certainly true compared to the previous two Kurama jinchūriki.

However, Naruto's perseverance should not be underestimated. Relying solely on his willpower, Naruto managed to withstand the negative emotions of Kurama and enter the One-Tail state without losing his mind; he was merely dizzy.

"what!"

Naruto shouted, and a spiral of air emanated from his body, sweeping across the surroundings.

The next moment, Naruto stepped forward, and Ushita was knocked back by the Rasenshuriken, his whole body being swept away. Naruto, on the other hand, headed towards Amamiya Kotone behind him.

This annoying support character needs to be eliminated beforehand.

Otherwise, no matter who is added to him, it's not just a simple matter of one plus one.

Especially when paired with highly compatible and capable individuals.

That should not be underestimated.

"Spiral pills!"

Reason still prevailed, and One-Tailed Beast was the only mode that Naruto dared to use and could use.

Naruto unleashed a Rasengan, unlike his usual Rasengan, which was purely youthful and innocent.

This time, the Rasengan was imbued with the Nine-Tails' unique chakra, making it appear significantly more orange-red.

But don't underestimate it; this Rasengan is definitely more powerful than the previous ones.

The chakra of the tailed beasts is the original energy of the God Tree, and attaching it to ninjutsu is enough to enhance its power.

Tailed Beasts are born with the name of calamity, not only because of their enormous size, but also because of their terrifying destructive power.

And isn't the terrifying destructive power of the tailed beasts due to the chakra that is closest to the origin?

Not to mention that the tailed beasts have an exceptionally large amount of chakra, and in addition to that, their regenerative abilities are also abnormal.

As for the Nine-Tails, one of the reasons it is considered the strongest tailed beast is its almost limitless chakra.

His recovery ability is twice as good as that of all the tailed beasts.

The Nine-Tails' ability to sustain combat is its most outstanding feature; due to its large number, the power it can unleash is also much stronger.

"what!"

Naruto roared. After transforming into a tailed beast, although he could still maintain his rationality, he was inevitably affected to some extent.

The sheer wildness brought by the tailed beasts alone is enough to give Naruto a run for his money; it's not something that can be easily controlled.

Moreover, once a tailed beast transforms, it's always a continuous process, and Naruto in this state has even more to consider in order to seal the Nine-Tails.

Putting all that aside for now, Naruto, having formed a Rasengan, headed straight for Kotone Amamiya, who was standing there.

Success!

It was about to hit Amamiya Kotone!

boom!

"what?"

Naruto's attack missed; his Rasengan failed to hit Kotone Amamiya.

With a light step, Amamiya Kotone narrowly dodged the attack.

In addition, Kotone Amamiya gave Naruto another surprise.

A small knife was drawn, imbued with the water attribute, and immediately gave Naruto a hard time.

Even though the area wasn't very long, Naruto suddenly got a small wound.

The power of water, seeping in silently, can be connected to many things. Back then, Kotone Amamiya chose this without hesitation, and she was indeed right to choose.

The gentle, tranquil water allowed her to master its techniques.

"what!"

The tail behind him slammed straight at him. Naruto and Kotone were only a few body lengths apart, and at that distance, it was perfectly safe to hit her.

However, Kotone Amamiya is not that simple.

As the original guardian of the sacred tree, Kotone Amamiya followed behind Onoshi, and she was also a military doctor who had served in the army for many years.

Although he is a doctor, he is also a military doctor; the extra character makes a big difference.

With a sideways movement, her body swirling with water and floating around her, Amamiya Kotone was as slippery as an eel, impossible to touch.

With a kick, Naruto was hit in the chin and stunned for a moment. The next moment, Kotone Amamiya's next attack came.

Naruto was kicked away, and the water-style chakra rushed into his body, instantly dispelling his One-Tailed form.

Naruto flew out, rolled around on the ground, and finally crashed into a wall.

This time, the injury was internal. Kotone Amamiya's kick was very precise, and the water-style chakra made Naruto cry out in pain.

He raised his head, drew his longbow, and an arrow flew over in the next instant—

Chapter 167: The Arrival of An Lushan

boom!

Naruto wasn't finished off by that arrow; another unexpected commotion suddenly broke out.

Amamiya Kotone still fired an arrow, but it was blocked by an unexpected visitor.

"you--"

The newcomer was enormous, instantly engulfing the sky.

Naruto felt a sudden darkness above his head, followed by a huge commotion, and a strong gust of wind hit his face, making him scream.

His red hair fluttered in the wind as he looked ahead, and a huge puppet landed in front of Naruto.

Naruto looked at the guy who suddenly jumped down from the sky for a while, and it was someone he recognized.

An Lushan!

he came!

Naruto didn't think of it at first, then he remembered Yamato and the others.

If An Lushan were here now, what would be the situation of the Yamato people?

He was in charge of delaying An Lushan.

Thinking of this, Naruto held his breath for a moment.

"An Lushan!!!"

An Lushan was looking at Amamiya Kotone and Ushida Yori, who had recovered.

He had never met these people before. Although they claimed to be cooperating, An Lushan had only met Yahiko and had never encountered these unknown individuals.

As An Lushan was pondering what was going on, a familiar voice came from behind him. He turned around and saw Naruto leaning against the broken wall, looking furious. The anger in his eyes was very obvious, almost bursting out.

"What did you do to Captain Yamato and the others?!"

Naruto shouted.

An Lushan smiled, but the puppet made people feel even more uneasy.

"Ah—what do you think?"

"That's about enough. I'll send you on your way soon, but it's not your turn to go first."

"Neither are you. I don't know either of you. If I were to go and kill Sarah, neither of us would offend you."

As An Lushan spoke, Naruto struggled, glaring angrily at An Lushan, his injured body managing to stand up again.

Amamiya Kotone and Ushita Yori stood there without saying a word. After all, they were just dead men. Kizuki's orders to them now were merely to obstruct them, not to pursue them.

A corpse cannot speak; no matter how much it resembles a living person, it is still just a dead body.

What would a dead person, whose soul has already vanished, say? Nothing.

Amamiya Kotone and Ushita Natsume began preparations again, seemingly ready to fight, without any intention of responding to An Lushan.

"very good!"

An Lushan's voice was also filled with suppressed anger. He was already being dragged out for so long, and now they were still dragging him out, which made him very unhappy.

"Are you ready? Prepare to face me!"

As soon as An Lushan finished speaking, Niu Tianye was the first to move, grabbing the axe blade and swinging it down.

Enveloped in lightning, this axe strike was devastating, directly chopping off a large portion of An Lushan's body.

Unfortunately, this was useless against An Lushan, who was now immortal and indestructible. As long as the dragon vein continued to surge, he was invincible.

Swish!

Amamiya Kotone's arrow arrived shortly after. Thunder roared over Mount Anlu, and suddenly, an arrow carrying water shot over, further amplifying the thunder and increasing its power by several times.

"That was a decent attack, but it was useless!"

An Lushan moved his feet and threw a punch directly at Niu Tianye in front of him.

The lightning was still swirling around him, but An Lushan was completely unaffected, and the damaged parts were frantically regenerating.
