Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

"The king once said something to me, guess what it was?"

Onoshi spoke slowly, a slight smile appearing on his face.

"I don't know."

Sand Clock shook his head, and Moon Tree glanced at him as well.

"Only when people refuse to admit defeat can they create miracles."

"We may not have succeeded, but others might not."

Onoshi spoke slowly and deliberately, not letting anyone interrupt him.

"Our feud has dragged on for far too long; it's time to settle things properly."

"Ono-senpai."

"This is the end; there's no need to go any further."

Onoshi shook his head, his eyes lowered.

"Then me too."

Sand Clock also had the air of a suicide squad. Onoshi smiled but didn't say anything, and the three of them sat quietly like that.

Onoshi wouldn't say anything about letting Sunajiu live.

Living requires immense courage. To die while letting others languish in life is far too selfish. Like myself, Sand Clock has journeyed through so many years, step by step, to where it is today. It has already traversed far too much time.

Everyone makes their own choices, without needing others to impose their will upon them.

"This is the end."

Tsukiki chimed in, and Onoshi and Sunaji both looked at him.

"Don't worry, we will win."

Tsukiki stretched out a fist, and Onoshi and Sunaji were both stunned for a moment.

"Hmm, this time, a miracle should happen."

Onoshi was the first to extend his fist, followed closely by Sandiji, and the three fists collided at that moment.

"All personnel, prepare for battle. Notify the reconnaissance units to return."

The four shadows understood that this was the final battle, and all their forces had to be summoned back.

As for Jiraiya, there's no need for that. If he finds Kabuto, then this battle can be over.

Without the forces resurrected by Edo Tensei, the Allied Shinobi Forces' fighting strength is overwhelming.

"Finally, I can make a move. I'm really feeling the energy."

"Don't worry, you won't be able to rest even if you want to at that time."

Minato smiled and said that the decisive battle was about to begin. As Kage, they were currently the highest-level combat force, and they didn't even have time to rest. They were personally leading the allied forces to fight against the enemy.

"Rest is not something a man should do before a battle."

"Let's get ready."

"There are still quite a few of us here."

After Ai finished speaking, he turned around, and the other three exchanged glances and followed behind him.

The four figures walked out of the door together and came to this balcony.

Outside, all the remaining combat forces at this headquarters have been assembled.

"Everyone!!!"

"Are you ready to give your lives?!"

Unlike Minato, Ai didn't say much; he got straight to the point.

"Ready!"

Countless people responded in the comments, creating such a powerful response that it was like an earthquake!

"Great! I'm ready too! No matter which bastard it is, we'll be the ones who win in the end!"

Minato and the others didn't say anything. Ai's speech was perhaps more powerful than anyone else's.

"Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails."

At the same time, Obito's Akatsuki army also began to slowly reveal itself.

Obito glanced at the Allied Shinobi Forces and whispered—

Chapter 414: Lightning

"Mission accomplished: Naruto and Sasuke will reach peak Jonin status within two years."

"Two chances to win a prize."

Hearing such a sound, Yue Shu lay in the forest watching the night.

They were still near the Land of Whirlpools, and hadn't completely left yet. Onoshi suggested they first get a general understanding of the army that the Otsutsuki had brought. Tsukiki was also here with the two of them.

"system."

Yue Shu began to speak with the system AI in her mind.

"What brings you here, host?"

"Actually, everything I have now is from my past self."

As Yue Shu spoke, the system AI did not immediately reply, but paused for quite a while.

"Yes, host, the system's energy is no longer sufficient to grant you more abilities. All of these abilities and rewards are things you already possessed in the past."

"These are all your ideas, host."

"These two chances to win a prize will give you a chance to regain your peak strength, and the other chance is a one-time opportunity to win a new ability."

"This is the last bit of energy—"

The system AI's speech started to become somewhat intermittent, and then Tsukiki began to speak.

Is this the last time?

"Perhaps, you've reached your limit. This is your last chance. Everything depends on your luck and your will."

"Well, thank you."

Yue Shu's "thank you" wasn't just directed at AI.

"Host."

May the military prosper!

The words came out in fits and starts, like a phone call with a bad signal.

That was the end of the sentence, and then there was no more sound.

"what happened?"

There seemed to be some commotion on Yue Shu's side, and Xiao Ye Shi spoke up from the side.

"It's nothing, I just have a little trouble sleeping."

"It's normal to not be able to sleep in this state. Go to sleep quickly, we still have a game to play tomorrow."

Onoshi spoke slowly, while Sunajishun remained silent, lying on his side as if fast asleep.

Yue Shu glanced sideways at Xiao Ye Shi.

"You already knew, didn't you?"

"What did you say?"

The two seemed to be exchanging riddles, as if they were on different wavelengths.

"You all already knew about Himegami's matter and Yufeng's matter."

Yue Shu stopped with the riddles and revealed the answer directly.

"Who knows?"

Onoshi immediately closed his eyes:

"Some things have been dragging on long enough, whether they are other people's problems or my own."

After Onoshi finished speaking, Tsukiki didn't respond further, and the two fell into silence.

There weren't many stars twinkling in the night sky, unlike when I visited the Land of Whirlpools before. Back then, the Land of Whirlpools, after its recovery, was a place where the Milky Way stretched out before my eyes. But now, that starry sky had been obscured by something.

Tsukiki also closed her eyes.

"lottery."

"congratulations----"

The voice is no longer as human-like as that of AI; the cold, impersonal voice has returned.

The night was pitch black, but if you looked closely, you could see two stars twinkling—

"Report: Enemy troops spotted ahead."

The next day, very early in the morning, the Allied Shinobi Forces' forward squad spotted Akatsuki.

Even if it comes to the final battle, the Allied forces will not hold the war on their own soil, as there are countless refugees here.

The final battle will take place about ten miles ahead.

All four shadows are gathered here, personally appearing at the forefront of the troops; all the forces are here.

"No rush, it's about time they came back."

Minato looked at the enemy's figure ahead, but he didn't panic. He just said something softly.

"Lightning Release: Lightning Explosion Blade".

"Sandstorm sends us to our graves!"

"Earth Escape, Serrated Waves".

"Lightning Release: Double-Edged Slash".
