Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

Swish!

Nagato glanced sideways, his pupils contracted, and he stopped moving, immediately retreating.

Tentacle-like things stretched out, piercing the ground and even wrapping around Hanzo.

"Ha ha ha ha."

Hanzo laughed loudly.

"Is this how it ends? Hahahaha."

Hanzo laughed loudly. The next second, blood splattered everywhere!

Entangled by these tentacles, and then strangled, Hanzo went limp and turned into a bloody mess.

"What is that?"

Nagato narrowed his eyes, and the shadow beneath him began to stir, with Black Zetsu emerging from it.

The tentacles in front of him were still moving. Hanzo, who had already been strangled, was writhing and then slowly turned into blood in front of Nagato, which was absorbed by the tentacles.

Nagato's expression turned serious, and Black Zetsu also said, "Be careful, or you'll turn into fodder."

"It's not some docile puppy."

As Black Zetsu finished speaking, Hanzo was completely absorbed, and the tentacles began to point at Nagato.

"Roar!"

Someone was howling, a very unique cry. As the cry echoed, the tentacles reacted and began to slowly retract.

At that moment, a huge commotion was also heard in the distance.

Rumble!

Looking around, Nagato realized that the two giants had collided, and the dazzling blue-white light emanating from where their heads met was the very spot where the light had struck.

On the other side, Xiaoyeshi had just placed the sand needles, and he could already feel them.

"It's actually transformed? Oh no."

Onoshi's expression changed. The reason they had gathered here had become clear. It was no longer a simple fruit, but had transformed into a different kind of being. Everyone was fighting right now, which was their weakest moment. That guy would definitely not let go of the opportunity to recover!

Meanwhile, on the Moon Tree's side, the two giants began to collapse, and all three were injured to varying degrees. The most seriously injured was Yufeng, who, even with the maximum power of his Reincarnation at the last moment, was still unable to block the Taiji Rasengan.

The two giants began to collapse, and three figures perished together within them—

What they had been longing for had turned into an uninvited guest. It did not come with good intentions; it opened its blood-filled maw and looked at everyone with eyes that yearned for food.

Thousands of years have passed, and the monster still opens its mouth to bite at all its prey. It absorbs their power, devours their flesh, and even digests their souls, for it will not let go of any opportunity to revive itself.

Chapter 216: Small Ten-Tails

"Kushina!"

With a flourish of his Moonwalk, Tsukishiro charged straight at Kushina through the air.

This exchange resulted in mutual destruction for both of them, although in the end, it was true that Yu Feng suffered the most severe injuries.

However, Tsukiki and Kushina were not small either. Even though Tsukiki protected Kushina at the crucial moment and stood directly in front of her, the impact force still managed to pass through and hit Kushina directly.

Tsukiki embraced Kushina in mid-air, while the two giants around them crumbled and fell with them.

"Relax."

Kushina gave a slightly forced smile as she comforted Tsukiki in front of her.

"It's just a minor injury, nothing to worry about."

As Kushina finished speaking, Tsukiki chuckled. At least at this moment, Kushina wasn't forcing herself, which meant that she wasn't seriously injured.

"Hurry up."

Tsukiki held Kushina tightly; this place was not safe, and the remains of these disintegrating giants were also a big problem.

With a push of his feet, Tsukiki carried Kushina and began to walk away through the air.

The giant's remains began to fall continuously, like small meteorites, crashing into the ground and exploding repeatedly, just like bombers flying by and dropping countless explosives. The scene was truly spectacular.

"Walking in the air? How enviable!"

Kushina wrapped her arms around Tsukiki's neck, a faint smile on her face. As she strolled through the air, still in the arms of her hero, Kushina could feel the happiness she felt in that moment.

The current Uzushi Village doesn't have the scenery it used to have; otherwise, it would be incredibly beautiful right now.

"No matter when, whenever you want, I will take you for a walk in the starry sky."

Tsukiki looked ahead and spoke, glancing at Kushina in between.

That one glance, an outburst of emotion, caused Kushina to shrink back.

"How cunning."

Kushina considered herself a strong person, having endured so many separations and hardships. Now, she had a hero by her side who would protect her for the rest of her life.

It was as if her dream had come true; Kushina suddenly felt like crying, but she quickly held it back.

She's going to be the first female Hokage, how can she cry like that? Besides, she looks so ugly when she cries, she can't let others see her like that.

Kushina leaned closer to Tsukiki, a sense of security spreading around her.

"Thank you."

Kushina opened her mouth slightly, but no sound came out; the sound only echoed in her heart.

The giants continued to crumble, the bombardment of the ground continued, and the Moon Tree was also leaving, slowly descending.

Yu Feng's figure had vanished without a trace, but Yue Shu was certain he wouldn't be defeated so easily. Yu Feng was now much stronger, and couldn't be dealt with by a single Tai Chi Rasengan.

Furthermore, the Otsutsuki clan possesses exceptional physical abilities; while Yufeng may be severely injured, he won't be on the verge of death. Moreover, it's possible that Yufeng will recover remarkably quickly.

Swish!

Yue Shu instinctively dodged to the side. Just now, he had sensed a danger, and the sound of the wind whistling past his ear confirmed it.

When Yue Shu looked to the side, right where she had been standing, there was something that looked like a tail.

When did it appear? Yue Shu hadn't noticed it until the sound of the air being torn apart rang out. After he sensed the danger and instinctively dodged it, the thing naturally appeared there.

Yue Shu's expression became much more serious, and nearby, on the side where the giant had collapsed, more of these things shot up and rushed towards him.

The target was Yu Feng. Yue Shu immediately knew the motive behind the commotion over there, just like here: to deal with them.

Something had its eye on them, and quite by chance, just when they were both severely injured.

Kushina, who was in his arms, also sensed that something was wrong and opened her eyes to look in front of her. The first thing she saw was Tsukiki's solemn expression, and then she saw these things that had suddenly attacked her and she didn't know what they were.

"Moon Tree—"

Kushina called out, and Tsukiki responded in return.

Who are you?

Yue Shu made a move by speaking first to test the waters. Although the thing in front of her didn't look human at all, it was still a possible tactic.

After all, ninjutsu and chakra have infinite possibilities, and this world is not entirely the Hokage that Tsukuyomi knows. It is not surprising that there are some extraordinary people, such as Onoshi and other guardians of the Divine Tree, as well as people like Otsutsuki Mikaze and Otsutsuki Kizuki.

The moon tree looked at the thing in front of it, which was swaying gently.

This is your subjective speculation, Tsukuyomi. Whether it's the guardians of the Divine Tree or the Otsutsuki, they all have a deep relationship with the Divine Tree. Apart from these, the world is actually very similar to what Tsukuyomi knows, although it's blurry now and we don't know much about the plot.

Regardless, based on these precedents, Yue Shu still felt that what was in front of him was inextricably linked to the divine tree.

And that is indeed the case.

The thing in front of us is indeed inextricably linked to the sacred tree.

"Escape from earth, break from rock."

Onoshi's voice rang out from beneath him, and a giant stone axe materialized, then cleaved the object in front of him with a single blow.

"Ono."

When Tsukiki saw Onoshi, she breathed a sigh of relief and quickly descended into the air towards Onoshi.

At that moment, a huge commotion was also heard from the side where the giant had collapsed.

With a loud bang, another massive explosion erupted, flames bursting forth like a volcanic eruption, sparks raining down. Those inexplicable objects were instantly incinerated.

What are those things?

Tsukiki asked, and Kushina also landed. Her injuries weren't too serious, so she didn't need to stay in Tsukiki's arms the whole time.

If things were normal, it would be fine, but now that things have escalated, the problem hasn't been resolved yet.

"The fruit of the divine tree."

Onoshi's direct answer surprised both Tsukiki and Kushina.

Kushina learned quite a bit about the Divine Tree and its inhabitants during this trip, and also gained a better understanding of Onoshi's identity.

Everyone knows that the people gathered here all have the same purpose: the so-called miniature Divine Tree Fruit, which contains a strong power originating from the Divine Tree and was formed by the deceased members of the Uzumaki clan.

The people of the Vortex already possess a portion of the divine tree's power, so it's not surprising that the souls of the entire clan converge into a small fruit of the divine tree.

But a fruit is a fruit, and now the little wild stone tells us that this sudden change is the fruit of the small divine tree.

"The small divine tree fruit can be considered a part of the divine tree. The fruit contains a part of the divine tree's consciousness. Although it usually doesn't show any signs of activity, our luck wasn't so good this time."

Onoshi spoke slowly, and Tsukiki and Kushina quickly understood.

Simply put, they've encountered yet another problem.

"Then what about our previous plan?"

Tsukiki and Kushina asked the question at the same time.

"Same as before. Whether it's a Devil Fruit or a smaller Ten-Tails, our goal is the same: to prevent this power from going out of control and to prevent it from falling into the hands of others."

Onoshi spoke very quickly.

“Break him down, and the nutrients and vitality that he has taken from this region will naturally be returned.”

After Onoshi finished speaking, Tsukiki and Kushina understood everything.

Next, they will have to deal with a miniature Ten-Tails, one that has absorbed the life force of the Land of Whirlpools.

"Don't let it keep growing, or there will be trouble. Even though it's just a part of its consciousness, it can become a true Ten-Tails if it absorbs enough life force and chakra."
