Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

The air pressure compressed, and an empty palm was delivered. The Fireballs stepped forward to fight.

In an instant, the fireball exploded and scattered, the flames spreading in all directions like a sky full of stars.

However, the empty palm strike was successfully blocked.

—Is it Bagua Empty Palm?

The shadow clone's consciousness returned to Tsukiki's mind, and it was in a daze again.

However, Yue Shu has become somewhat accustomed to the feeling of so many consciousnesses rushing back at once, and this moment of disorientation quickly subsided.

Seeing the opponent's moves, Tsukiki had already guessed what was going on.

They are members of the Otsutsuki clan.

That means they can use the Hyuga clan's taijutsu.

With her feet moving forward continuously, Yue Shu had no reason to stop.

My consciousness kept returning to me, and I felt a little disoriented from time to time.

Tsukiki's shadow clones were not effective in stopping the pursuers.

That makes sense, though. If the Otsutsuki were so easy to stop, they wouldn't be the big boss.

—This is bad.

Tsukiki could sense the ever-approaching distance, and this was simply not a solution.

"Moontree boy, there's another way."

Fukasaku and Shima were still resting on Jiraiya's shoulder when Fukasaku spoke.

"No."

Jiraiya naturally knew what the method was, but there were too many uncertainties, and he couldn't take the risk.

"what?"

The moon tree did not care about its own comings, and asked about the deep work.

"The Reverse Spirit Communication Technique can enable us to escape to Mount Myōboku."

"The safety of the Watergate is still uncertain."

As Fukasaku spoke slowly, Jiraiya immediately interrupted.

How do I use it?

Without the slightest hesitation, Yue Shu immediately spoke.

Both the man and the two toads were stunned, never expecting Yue Shu to act so decisively.

"You can bring other people back, right?"

"Yes, but you need to sign a contract with Mount Myōboku. I can sign a contract with you, but I'll just need some blood."

"Then, it's fine for the lecherous immortal to go back alone, right?"

Yue Shu made a surprising statement.

Do you know what you're saying?

"Don't even think about doing anything for me, you little brat."

Jiraiya was naturally extremely unwilling, while Fukasaku asked from the side.

Having lived with my wife for so long, this is the first time I've ever seen a little devil like Yue Shu.

"Well, time is running out, hurry up and tell me the seal."

Tsukiki glanced behind him, and Fukasaku naturally understood what he meant.

"No! Fukasaku!"

"The child's mother."

"Good."

Jiraiya's mouth was sealed shut by Shima, leaving him with no way to resist.

Fukasaku then revealed the hand seals for the Reverse Spirit Summoning Technique.

Yue Shu quickly understood, and then stopped in her tracks.

Tsukiki flipped Jiraiya directly in front of him and began his actions.

He controlled Jiraiya, manipulating Jiraiya's body to perform hand seals, while he himself was responsible for providing chakra.

Since one of his hands was petrified, Fukasaku considerately showed him the hand seals for the other hand.

The aura continued to approach, and Yue Shu moved quickly as well.

"Reverse Spirit Communication Technique!"

Tsukijutsu transferred his chakra and slammed Jiraiya's hand onto the ground.

A rune began to spread.

"Take care, Jiraiya-sensei."

Tsukiki said something softly, and then Shima released her hand from his mouth, allowing Jiraiya to speak again.

But it was too late.

Smoke rose silently, and Jiraiya's figure vanished from the spot, leaving only a scroll unfurled on the ground.

Here, only Tsukiki remained.

At that moment, the Otsutsuki caught up.

Without any warning, he struck out with a palm.

"Don't rush!"

Yue Shu jumped to the side to dodge, and then began to form hand seals.

"Wood Release: Wood Dragon Technique".

A wooden dragon appeared out of nowhere and hovered behind the moon tree.

"Fairy Mode!"

Yue Shu's eyes began to redden, and her pupils became a horizontal beam.

Just like the first generation, Tsukiki looked at Otsutsuki.

"That woman's scent."

Ōtsutsuki's voice calmed down somewhat.

Chakra surged forth continuously, and the pressure from the Otsutsuki clan continued to rise.

The immature moon tree was no match for it; it could barely withstand even just staring at it.

I don't know how Jiraiya managed to withstand it; perhaps he experienced the same pressure on the battlefield.

"Hey, it's not good to bully a kid."

The familiar voice rang in his ears, and Yue Shu immediately felt the pressure on his body ease considerably.

Following the sound, Yue Shu saw two "old friends".

Sand, gravel, needles, and small wild stones.

These two were the biggest obstacles in his last mission. They were definitely Kage-level guys, and they beat up Yue Shu and the others.

"This aura."

Otsutsuki didn't rush to make a move; instead, he stopped, and Tsukiki breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Are you the guardians of the sacred tree?

"Sorry, we stopped doing that job a long time ago."

The one who spoke was Sandstone Needle; Onoshi wasn't a talkative person.

Ōtsutsuki Kumoshiki narrowed his eyes, as if he wanted to do something.

"I advise you not to act impulsively. Even if you are a member of the Otsutsuki clan, your hands are already injured, aren't they?"

Onoshi finally spoke, his eyes meeting those of Otsutsuki Kumoshiki, showing no fear whatsoever.

"Did you hear that? Anyway, you're a cripple now, so it's no wonder we chopped you up. It'll save us trouble."

Sand Needle drew his ninja sword. His swordsmanship was not much worse than White Fang's, but he was especially skilled in chakra transmission, which was unparalleled.

Ōtsutsuki Kumoshiki glanced at the two of them, then at the Tsukiki beside him, where the small wooden dragon was still standing.

"Interesting, kid. That's enough for today. I'm quite interested in you letting me have my way."

Ōtsutsuki Kumoshiki chuckled a few times, glanced at Tsukiki, and then jumped away.

The sudden development left Yue Shu somewhat bewildered.

However, the situation remains unchanged. Although the enemy has changed, he is still an enemy, and the same enemy as before.

After Yunshi left, Yueshu turned her attention to the two people on the other side.

Dressed in the same attire as last time, they were also sizing up the moon tree.

What is your purpose?

After a long while, neither side spoke, and Yue Shu finally spoke first and asked.

Onoshi didn't say anything, and turned away directly. It was Sandstone Needle who spoke.

"Let's give ourselves a proper thank you for our sudden inspiration."

As soon as he finished speaking, Onoshi left, and Sandstone Needle followed him.

The moon tree remained stuck in place, and the wooden dragon was still hanging there.

No one knows if it will suddenly reappear, so Yue Shu cannot let her guard down.

After a while, Yue Shu finally realized this inexplicable development.

The chakra dissipated, the wooden dragon fell apart, and Tsukigi sat directly on the ground.
