Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

As Yue Shu finished speaking, the silent wind flowed silently, so quiet, yet so swift.

"Everyone!"

Jiraiya and the others are leading the battle here.

The various high-level combat forces have been dispersed to different locations to deal with these ninjas who have surrounded them at the same time.

"The time for a counterattack has come!"

Jiraiya's words were relayed to various locations over long distances by intelligence ninjas.

Konoha has fired the first shot in their counterattack.

With the addition of Tsukuyomi, one of the most powerful ninjas in the world, Konoha's counterattack went incredibly smoothly, like a fish in water.

A top-tier combat power is enough to crush everyone, whether it's the already depleted Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist or the elite troops sent by the Iwagakure. They are all no match for him.

Tsuki led Konoha's forces in a frontal assault, and soon they successfully broke through, forcing the combined forces of Iwagakure and Kirigakure to retreat.

The first shot of Konoha's counterattack has been fired, and it has been a great success. The Allied Forces, which were initially riding high, are now retreating step by step, just as they had pressed forward when they first attacked.

Everything started all over again at that moment.

"Haha, I knew you could do it."

The first counterattack was successful, and Konoha needed to readjust before they could launch a full-scale counterattack, giving the enemy just the right moment to prepare themselves.

"How's the situation?"

Minato patted Tsukiki on the shoulder, and Tsukiki turned around and looked at him, asking a question.

He knew that Minato's injuries were serious.

"It's alright, just a minor injury."

Minato flashed his signature smile, which didn't seem forced at all, despite his still pale face.

Tsukiki smiled faintly, but quickly regained her composure.

"Speaking of which, where is Mikoto? I haven't seen her."

When Tsukiki asked, Minato's smile froze.

"Well, Mikoto, there's something special going on. I'm back in Konoha now."

Minato touched his hair, and this time his smile seemed forced and strained.

Tsukiki stared at Minato for a while, but in the end, she didn't ask any further questions.

It's good that Minato is telling the truth and Mikoto is not in any danger; this is actually a better outcome.

Tsukiki didn't care about the details behind the matter and simply glossed over it, which relieved Minato.

"Lord Tsukiki, Lord Minato, and Lady Kushina, Lord Jiraiya requests that the three of you proceed to the meeting camp for a meeting."

Just then, a ninja came up and spoke, and Tsuki and Minato also looked at him.

The next moment, both of them looked into the distance, just as Kushina emerged from the tent—

Next, it's time for a full-scale counterattack to end this battle!

Chapter 252: Countdown

"Konoha has received reinforcements, and our combined forces with Kirigakure have now retreated."

While listening to this news from Iwagakure, Onoshi was deeply concerned about Kirigakure's actions, which showed a complete disregard for their own future.

"Has the Unkillable Blade returned?"

Ōnoshi knew about Tsukiki's departure long ago, otherwise he wouldn't have gone so long without seeing Tsukiki after the war had started.

As a Kage, he knew a little about the affairs of the Land of Whirlpools. He originally wanted to send people there, but was delayed because of the Cloud Village incident. However, he eventually sent two Jonin with intelligence skills to seek some information. Unfortunately, these people had already been killed by Kazama Kumo and Hanzo of the Salamander.

The activities of Tsukiki and her group in the Land of Whirlpools were quite significant, and the events dragged on for quite some time.

Onoki tapped the table, deep in thought.

The situation is no longer favorable, after all, Tsuki's combat strength is already well-known in the ninja world, and he has the strength to become a Kage who can stand alone.

Minato Namikaze, the Yellow Flash, and Tsukihime, the Unkillable Blade, were both Konoha's prodigies, qualified to succeed as the next Hokage.

Although Tsukiki and Minato still seem young, at most twenty years old, their strength is more than enough to fight the Five Kage.

"What a terrifying young man."

Onoki sighed: "No matter when, prodigies will never be absent from Konoha."

This is a fact!

Minato and Tsukiki are renowned for their strength, even making Onoki, currently the oldest Kage, feel the same way as those two.

During the Warring States period, there were two dazzling twin stars who stole all the light: Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju.

Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju's auras once again filled their bodies, and Onoki's expression also turned serious.

“We are no longer in a favorable position. Notify our people to be ready to retreat at any time. We don’t need to risk our lives like the Hidden Mist. If anything seems amiss, retreat immediately.”

"Yes!"

Onomoto immediately gave the order that the longer one lives, the more one will see, and this was exactly what happened to Onomoto.

Ōnoki had experienced so many wars that he was far more experienced than anyone else.

The orders were immediately issued, but Onoki remained alone in his office with a somber expression.

Others may not know, but he understands it very well.

"I'm afraid even leaving would be a luxury."

Onoki looked toward the battlefield, and the image of the Third Mizukage who had told him that he would personally take to the field flashed through his mind.

"he."

Onoki thought back to the past, a time that had been long ago.

That was when the Mizukage first found them. After eliminating Konoha, the Mizukage convened a meeting of the Four Kage. It was from that moment that he began to plan this war.

It's just due to various factors; otherwise, the war wouldn't have dragged on until now before it truly began.

"Is it really the Third Mizukage?"

From that time on, Onoki had a question; in his memory, the Third Mizukage didn't seem like that at all. But his question went unanswered.

Onoki's voice echoed, but no reply came. His uneasy prediction, however, had come true.

The Third Mizukage reassembled the Allied Forces. As expected, not a single Iwagakure member managed to escape. Even the one who came to report the situation and slipped away was not spared, just like the Iwagakure ninja who had threatened to desert earlier.

They all lay on this ground, turning into fertilizer for the trees and staining the black soil red.

The Third Mizukage looked like this. Kizuki licked his lips, appearing completely deranged, with blood splattered all over his face and his clothes mostly stained red.

This is Muzuki, who just escaped from Tsukiki's clutches.

His injuries worsened at this point.

He was laughing loudly, facing a group of coalition soldiers whose faces looked rather grim.

Absolute crushing defeat! This is the combat power of a Shadow-level expert, even with severe injuries.

Kizuki laughed loudly; the battle had come to an end.

"coming!"

"An interesting fellow has arrived!"

Mu Yue was muttering to himself, and no one knew what he was saying except for him, because he was the only one who had been left behind here.

"Himegami Tsukiju!"

"Hahaha, your friends, how will you welcome them?"

After finishing speaking, Mu Yue stopped laughing and simply smiled as she began her own arrangements.

"Everyone, get ready—"

Mu Yue looked at the person in front of her, her eyes filled with an unknown light.

--------

"This is the final battle. We will end this war. Who will be the victor?"

"It's Konoha!!!"

"Good! Very spirited! Are you guys ready? You are the heroes of Konoha!"

"Ready!"

"it is good!"

At the Konoha camp, all combat forces have been mobilized, and the intelligence team has gathered sufficient information about the enemy. Everything is ready; all that remains is to set off.

Jiraiya gave a motivational speech before setting off. This task should have been done by Minato, but Minato was still recovering and wasn't particularly skilled at it. In the end, it fell to Jiraiya, since no one else would be so passionate as to say such a thing.

The gates were open, and everyone stared ahead with fervent excitement, their eyes gleaming with a light that was behind which lay a drifting leaf.

Everyone fights for their hometown, Konoha, and for their families in Konoha. This applies not only to the low-ranking ninja soldiers, but also to the Sannin and Kurenai Yuhi.

"This is the last one!"

Kurenai Yuhi's face was serious. White Fang and Might Guy had already passed away; they were his last close friends. Now only he remained. This battle had taken so many lives, yet Kurenai Yuhi was one of the lucky ones who survived.

"This is the last one!!!"

Clenching their hands, it wasn't just Yuhi Shinku who was doing it; countless ninja soldiers were also there.

What are you planning to do?

Tsukiki looked at Minato, who was dressed in his combat gear, and Kushina did the same.

Tsukiki and Kushina will go on the expedition with the main army, while the wounded, such as Minato, will stay in the camp with the troops left behind.

"It's up to you now."

Minato looked at his combat uniform, and finally smiled as he looked at Tsuki and Kushina.

Tsukiki and Kushina returned the smile.

"Okay, leave it to us."
