Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

Yu Feng was extremely arrogant, and Sand Clock immediately retorted.

"Don't send your own people to die right from the start."

"Really? Just like you?"

Yu Feng and Sha Shizhen are like a pair of sworn enemies, completely unable to see eye to eye, and every word they utter seems to be a point of contention.

Onoshi also sat down and leaned against the tree.

He didn't speak, nor did he stop their argument. They remained silent.

Since we're all about to become companions, let them argue if they want.

Onoshi's mind wasn't on this right now; he was thinking about things further into the future—perhaps not so far away after all.

"Can you hear what's going on inside?"

Onoshi looked at the sky, which was now incredibly blue, a sight that instantly lifted one's spirits.

Sand Clock and Wind also looked at Onoshi here. They stopped arguing and heard what Onoshi said.

"Ha ha ha ha."

Mikaze smiled, looking in the direction Tsuki and Kushina had left. Meanwhile, Sandy Toki closed her eyes and exhaled.

Only they knew, only they knew—the enemy that was about to arrive.

The tombstones of the Whirlpool Clan stand here, the sea breeze blowing and the sun shining brightly—

------

"Is it really Kushina?"

"Yes, it's a pity. Kushina is the princess of the vortex recorded in the family tree. She has already resonated with the scroll left by her ancestors."

That night, Kushina finally resolved all the matters concerning her hometown, which were things from her dreams. She seemed to recall some things that had never existed.

There was only sound, no visuals, so Kushina could only listen.

"That--"

“That’s right, Kushina will take on the responsibilities of a princess, and so will we.”

And that's it, everything Kushina could hear stopped—

Chapter 241: Only...

"Do you know the saying that has been passed down for thousands of years among the Uzumaki clan?"

"When the princess of the whirlpool descends, the original appearance will be revealed, and disaster will reappear in the world, but the original heroes will have already disappeared."

Kushina snapped out of her daze, and Tsukiki was holding her; she nestled tightly in his arms.

The two hurried back to Konoha, but of course, the journey couldn't be completed in a day, so they made frequent stops along the way.

Tsukiki's eyes were closed, her breathing even, as if she were still asleep. Kushina smiled, took Tsukiki's arm around herself, closed her eyes, and fell asleep again.

The moonlight outside was dazzling, but the small wooden house, built using the Lianzhu family's techniques, kept it out, allowing the people inside to sleep soundly.

On Konoha's side, Kakashi's logistics and escort units launched an attack on the Iwagakure forces who had launched a surprise attack.

We absolutely cannot let the enemy break through here. Behind us are wounded soldiers and doctors, and even a lot of civilians. These are all unarmed people, and the consequences would be unimaginable if the enemy breaks through.

Not just Kakashi, everyone knew the other's purpose.

"Lightning Release: A Flash of Lightning".

Drawing his sword from his waist, Kakashi unleashed a powerful slash, imbued with lightning chakra, making it exceptionally fast.

With a swift movement, the knife fell, and a life was extinguished.

Blood spilled, blooming right at their feet.

Kakashi's strike was incredibly powerful, immediately demoralizing the enemy while boosting his own morale.

"rush!"

Kakashi's voice was very cold and flat, but it still made everyone's blood boil.

pang!

Kakashi charged straight at the enemy leader, an elite Jonin who was practically the strongest fighter there.

The logistics troops didn't have much defensive strength, and Konoha hadn't recovered from the previous relaxed state to suddenly being at a disadvantage in the battle.

Due to insufficient manpower, most of the fighting force is at the front line resisting the attack of Kirigakure. It can be said that the strongest person in Konoha here is Kakashi, as he is the only Jonin.

Fortunately, the other side was the same, with only one Jonin. However, the other side was a genuine elite Jonin, unlike Kakashi who had just been promoted to Jonin.

"Leave this to me!"

Kakashi forcefully shoved the opponent's strongest fighter aside, not even caring if he got hurt. "Kakashi."

The others also gasped in alarm and expressed their concern, but the next second the enemy swung his blade at them.

"Don't let them break through."

Kakashi's voice finally came back as he transformed into a bolt of lightning and sent the opponent's strongest fighter flying.

A battle often sees the outcome reversed due to the difference in the strength of each side's top fighters.

The most crucial thing is the person in front of you.

Kakashi gripped his ninja sword, his eyes fixed on the person in front of him.

The other person also steadied himself and stood up. He hadn't expected Kakashi to be so brave.

Although Kakashi actually did a fantastic job, he exploited this psychology, catching his opponent completely off guard.

"Excuse me, it's time for you to leave."

Kakashi raised his ninja sword, his voice cold, as had always been his attitude.

The Iwagakure Jonin in front of him smiled. He seemed surprised that Kakashi would do something like this; it was truly unexpected.

Kakashi's expression remained unchanged. All he needed to do next was block the person in front of him.

"Lightning Release: Flowing Claws".

A battle was about to break out when the person in front of them swung a claw.

A bolt of lightning shot out from his hand and traveled along the ground. Right in front of Kakashi, the lightning transformed into a claw and reached out to grab him.

Kakashi raised his sword to block, taking a few steps back; in terms of strength, Kakashi was a fatal flaw.

Gritting his teeth, Kakashi took the initiative to step back.

This leverage left the opponent with nowhere to push. Kakashi seized the opportunity to dash back.

"Lightning Release: Minions!"

Not only do others have henchmen, but Kakashi does too!

As soon as the ninja sword in his hand was drawn, the slashing attack went out like claws.

"Lightning Release: Exploding Lightning".

The opponent's hand seals were incredibly fast; in just a short while, they had already completed the seals and slammed their palms onto the ground.

The lightning bolts kept bursting out from his hands, which were pressed against the ground.

Kakashi's slash rushed forward to clash with the lightning. The two lightning bolts of the same element collided, neither gaining the upper hand, and the lightning bolts spread outwards.

"what!"

Kakashi yelled and charged forward, slashing his ninja sword at the opponent. But the opponent was no pushover; after all, he was a genuine elite Jonin, easily dodging the attack with a simple sidestep.

"Earth escape, rock fist."

He threw a punch, but his fist was already covered by rocks and soil. His fist, which should have been small, swung towards Kakashi like a giant.

The punch was thrown so fast that Kakashi couldn't react instantly.

With a flick of his wrist, Kakashi changed his stance, shifting the ninja sword he was holding in his right hand to his left, intending to block the rock fist.

The rock fist struck, and Kakashi was knocked back by it.

Instead of resisting, Kakashi simply retreated, sending him back ten meters.

It's obvious that the opponent is the type who favors strength, and going head-to-head with them is clearly not a good idea.

"interesting."

Kakashi's special machine piqued the interest of the Jonin of Iwagakure.

Not everyone is Kakashi. As an elite Jonin, he has experienced at least thirty years of life. During these years, as a taijutsu-type ninja, he has fought against countless skilled opponents, but he has never seen anyone with such exquisite skills as Kakashi.

Moreover, Kakashi is still just a kid.

"Your physical skills are very interesting."

Iwa ninja clenched his fists, and his bones cracked.

Kakashi gasped for breath. He was completely overwhelmed by the physical pressure, and his opponent was a taijutsu user who specialized in close combat. What was worse, Kakashi couldn't shake off his opponent and kite him.

"Even with strong force dissipation, you can't leave nothing behind. If you can't dissipate this punch, you can just throw an even heavier one next time. But how much can you dissipate, and how long can you hold out?"

As an elite Jonin specializing in taijutsu, the Iwa ninja knew very well that battles were all about offense, and he only believed in the strongest spear.

As long as his attack is stronger than his opponent's, he can defeat them.

This statement is indeed correct; at least in Naruto, there has never been a being like Kaido from One Piece.

Kakashi's expression remained calm and unchanged. His hands were trembling slightly, which he was trying to control. At only twelve years old, he had withstood such force, which was already quite remarkable. However, physical differences are not something that can be easily overcome.

Kakashi assumed his stance, showing no sign of backing down.

Iwa ninja also smiled.

"it is good!"

He took a step forward and rushed forward, and Kakashi followed without hesitation.

He's the only person here.

Only he could hold him off, only he!
