Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

Just as Minato said, this is the time when they are most relaxed. If there is a surprise attack, they will be at a great disadvantage. For example, other things, such as troop formation, are difficult to do now and will be much less efficient, just as Minato said.

The sunlight shone on him, and Minato squinted, his unease growing stronger.

Tsuki and Kushina haven't returned yet, Kakashi is still seriously injured, and I'm in almost the same condition. This is not a good situation.

"I hope nothing bad happens."

Minato had great faith in his intuition, but this time he hoped it wouldn't be as accurate.

As he spoke at the water gate, his mind had already become wary.

He exhaled and walked towards Kakashi's location.

Kakashi's condition doesn't allow him to do anything here. If something really happens as Minato said, Kakashi would be in considerable danger, and Minato, as his teacher, can't let it go unchecked.

As Minato walked, he returned to the place. A familiar voice came from inside; it was Obito's voice, loud enough for Minato to hear clearly.

Walking inside, the scenery was the same as always. Obito and Kakashi were always bickering, and this scene had been going on for several years in Minato's team.

With a slight smile, Minato slowly walked over.

"Minato-sensei".

Rin was the first to spot Minato. As soon as she finished speaking, Kakashi and Obito turned around and looked over, and then they both greeted her with "Hello, teacher!"

"How did you get in?"

Such "intensive care units" are not open to just anyone, to prevent the patient's condition from worsening, which could be fatal.

"I let them in."

Tsunade's voice came from behind, and Minato turned around to look.

Tsunade has already donned her ninja attire, and she will personally lead the battles as the commander-in-chief of the healing squad in the upcoming engagements.

"Lady Tsunade—thank you."

Minato laughed. But Tsunade replied directly, "Save your thanks for now. To be honest, I was a little uneasy about what you just said."

Tsunade looked at Minato, then at Kakashi and the other two, whose eyes held a hint of confusion.

Minato and Tsunade felt the same way, and not only that, Orochimaru and the others felt the same way, and even Jiraiya felt the same way later on.

If it's wrong, that's fine—

Snapped.

The blood flowed slowly, eroding the sun-drenched necklace and soaking it completely.

The wind picked up considerably, blowing silently towards us.

"You must accept the gifts you receive; they are all a token of your appreciation."

Chapter 246: Golden Flash

Is that really possible?

"what?"

"As I just mentioned, it's said that someone might attack us."

"Probably not. Besides, we have so many patrols. If they were coming, we would have known long ago, and that would have been enough time for us to prepare. And if so many people were coming, there would definitely be a lot of noise. How could they possibly get this close?"

"I hope so."

The news has spread, and now many people in the camp are discussing it.

The possibility of this attack is not too low, so it has been explained in detail. The camp has now entered a semi-alert mode.

The reason it's only half is twofold: firstly, not many people are aware of it yet, and secondly, they aren't paying too much attention to it. But there's no doubt that they are all somewhat wary.

Mu Yue, hidden in the shadows, also smiled. He had originally intended to slowly absorb the troops, but now it seemed that this approach would only make things more complicated.

So what needs to be done next is quite simple, since they've already infiltrated this place.

The words were still ringing in her ears when Mu Yue directed those who had arrived earlier to begin their operation. The rest of the group had already surrounded them, and their movements were very discreet. With Mu Yue's assistance, they were able to carry out their mission with ease.

puff.

"Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique".

Quite suddenly, no one expected that a towering waterfall would rise up on the spot, reaching a height of more than twenty meters, instantly covering the area and even blocking out the sunlight.

Kizuki uses ninjutsu. Although he is not good at using hand seals, his chakra capacity is so terrifying and pure that it allows him to perform beyond his normal level.

"Enemy attack!"

Kizuki sat atop the waterfall, her presence extremely eye-catching and immediately noticeable.

"The gift has been presented. Everyone from Konoha, please accept it with gratitude."

"All troops, attack!"

At Mu Yue's command, figures suddenly sprang from the surrounding grass and trees.

"When exactly is it?!"

The massive waterfall swept across the surrounding area, and high-ranking combatants like Jiraiya immediately stepped forward to deal with it. Otherwise, this attack would have been enough to severely damage the people of Konoha.

The quiet campsite suddenly became lively.

"Damn Kirigakure and Iwagakure!"

The people of Konoha were all cursing and shouting. This sudden surprise attack caught them off guard and caused countless deaths and injuries.

The other party's attire was quite obvious; the headbands worn by those from Kirigakure and Iwagakure were enough to explain everything.

They couldn't understand why Iwagakure and Kirigakure would join forces. Even Jiraiya and the others couldn't figure it out, but at this moment they had no time to worry about such trivial matters.

Another battle is about to begin!

What's going on outside?

Lin's voice carried a hint of doubt and her usual worry. She was a smart girl and had already guessed a little bit about it, after all, she had done missions and experienced killing.

"Has the enemy arrived?!"

Obito blurted it out immediately, gripping his hands tightly and looking outside.

Having suffered such severe injuries himself, and with his friend Kakashi still bedridden and unable to move, Obito harbored deep hatred for these enemies.

"teacher."

Kakashi tried to sit up, but Minato immediately stopped him.

"It's alright, you all stay here."

Kakashi's position is the location of the medical unit, which is a logistics position. It's not just Kakashi here; there are countless wounded soldiers as well as some genin who have stepped forward to provide support. These are all vulnerable personnel who cannot withstand too much combat.

Not only that, but most importantly, there are countless students, who are the sparks of Konoha that cannot be extinguished here.

"teacher."

Lin looked at Minato; with Minato there, they felt much more at ease.

"The teacher will be right back. Lin, please keep an eye on this place."

Watergate flashed his signature sun-like smile.

His body was covered by bandages, and everything that was exposed had been removed. Minato's steps were now calm and no longer appeared to be limping.

There was a set of clothes right next to him; it wasn't his divine robe, but a ninja's combat uniform.

He pulled the water gate over, put it on, and walked out the door.

Looking around, I saw that the children were still there, ready to fight, just as the sounds came.

Shuimen looked at the children; they were all covered in dust and dirt, a standard sight on the battlefield. Their upright figures stood before the tents where wounded soldiers lay.

These are the flames of Konoha, representing the hope for Konoha's future. Even though they may seem weak now, they dare to face the storms.

"Hahaha, lucky me, a logistics position!"

A large number of figures began to rush out from all around, including members of the Mist Village and the Rock Village.

Minato exhaled.

Fortunately, they were not facing many high-level combatants; they were only some Chunin, with a few Jonin occasionally.

After assessing his chakra and injuries, Minato's gaze sharpened.

"Excuse me, if you want to trample on the flowers and plants in Konoha, please step over the gardener first!"

Minato drew a Flying Thunder God kunai from his ninja tool pouch and shot it out.

He can't do that now, but he has no choice.

"A swift and decisive victory!"

Minato murmured to himself, this was his choice now.

"Ninja Art! Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique."

The Flying Thunder God Kunai that was shot out multiplied from one to two, then from two to four, and continuously transformed into a pile.

As Minato's voice rang out, everyone in Konoha's eyes lit up.

The golden flash of Konoha is a ray of hope!

"Ninja Art, Eight Directions Lines"

The chakra in his hands formed threads, instantly connecting to numerous Flying Thunder God kunai.

Minato gripped tightly with both hands and pulled hard. With this, the controlled Flying Thunder God Kunai collided with other flying kunai, causing the numerous Flying Thunder God Kunai to become chaotic and launch in all directions.

Minato flicked his wrist again, and the kunai really spread out in all directions. Normally, he could have dealt with them with a single ninjutsu, though it would have consumed a lot of chakra. But he couldn't do that now.

"Minato, Eight Directions Spiral Thunder Flying Thunder God Formation."

As soon as Minato finished speaking, he vanished in a flash of light.

The golden flashes continued to shine, protecting the flames of Konoha behind them and supporting a patch of sky.

Without the Rasengan, Minato used the Flying Thunder God Technique to instantly grab the kunai in his hand and launch an attack.

It might be a slash, or it might be shooting out that kunai. This is Minato's current fighting style. He doesn't have the ability to conjure up Rasengans now.
