However, if the Sand Village succeeds, Konoha will truly be in a completely inferior position, forced to temporarily return to the village to regroup. They might even have to accept a ceasefire agreement as the losers.
the reason is simple.
Unlike the Sand Village, which established its headquarters in the Land of Wind, meaning it could be easily destroyed and rebuilt, Konoha's frontline headquarters was located in the distant Land of Rivers. This headquarters housed not only a command center for frontline operations but also a field hospital, various supplies, and food provisions.
Once the defenses are breached, supplies will be available for several days. During this time, everyone will be forced to live on dirt; how can the war be fought then?
It is probably precisely because they saw through this that the Sand Village was so ruthless as to release the Tailed Beasts in an attempt to strike at the heart of the enemy.
082 Facing the Tailed Beasts
(Gentlemen's Exchange Kingdom: **)
Phew, this is really a difficult situation to resolve.
Wuyue took a deep breath and looked around. All she could see was desolation and ruin; the once neat barracks had been reduced to rubble. Scattered corpses lay on the ground, and judging from their clothing, some were from the Sand Village and others from the Leaf Village.
The cruelty and brutality of war were on full display at this moment. But Wuyue had no mind to reminisce about the past; he was carefully searching for traces of his beautiful teacher.
Finally, in a corner of the ruins, he saw Tsunade. Mugetsu flashed and appeared before her. "Sensei, your situation seems a bit precarious."
It was more than just bad; Tsunade was in a sorry state. Her fair and beautiful face was covered in soot, and her clothes were torn in many places, with obvious bloodstains visible.
This was utterly unacceptable to a woman so concerned about her appearance. But Tsunade seemed oblivious, focused solely on guarding against her enemy. Even upon hearing Mugetsu's voice, she merely glanced at him and nodded slightly. "You're back. It's good you're back..."
The person on the other end must be no ordinary person to have pushed her to this extent.
That's right, they are Tsunade's old rival Chiyo, and her younger brother Ebizo, who is good at playing minor roles.
Although she was just a minor character, she was still a Kage-level powerhouse. Tsunade was already struggling enough against Chiyo, so it's not surprising that she ended up like this with Ebizo on top of that.
However, Wu Yue wasn't worried that his beautiful teacher wouldn't be able to hold on. He knew her trump card too well; this voluptuous body, having cultivated Yang Release to its peak, didn't need to care about such minor injuries. So, he simply said softly, "Teacher, is there anything I can help you with? Please give me your instructions!"
That little rascal, he knows the answer already!
Tsunade glared at him angrily and said irritably, "Yes! Go and take care of that tailed beast for me, can you do that?"
Of course, Tsunade's intention wasn't to have Mugetsu confront the tailed beasts head-on. She was just inexplicably annoyed by his attitude and tone, as if he didn't care about her enough?
However, Wuyue seemed oblivious to the slight complaint in her words, only hesitating for a moment before saying, "I'll give it a try." With that, she vanished without a trace.
Uh.
Tsunade froze, her face filled with astonishment. This little brat is so dense? Didn't he realize she was joking? He... he actually went? Doesn't he have a death wish?
In an instant, Tsunade's heart was filled with regret, self-blame, and even a touch of heartache. She suddenly realized that when she faced that little brat, she had developed a special kind of emotion... it was definitely not the ordinary teacher-student relationship.
We must stop him!
With that thought in mind, Tsunade turned around and was about to chase after Mugetsu.
But at that moment, several white figures suddenly appeared in front of her. These figures were all dressed in white and had strange appearances. Some had two horns on their heads, some had only one eye, and all of them had the character "门" (gate) engraved on their foreheads. They were Chiyo's hidden trump card—the Chikamatsu Ten.
"Now is not the time for you to leave, Tsunade-hime."
Chiyo's ten fingers, each tip wrapped with a strand of chakra, stared coldly at Tsunade. "You'll stay here for now, until your headquarters is completely destroyed."
Damn!
Tsunade's eyes were filled with a dark and brooding expression as she clenched her fists. After a long while, she relaxed them and coldly shouted, "Yin Seal - Release!"
……
……
Rumble.
The battlefield, ravaged by the tailed beasts, was filled with billowing dust.
Shukaku's every action is like a natural disaster, causing unimaginable damage to Konoha's garrison and its various facilities and buildings.
Even so, there were still many Konoha ninjas around Shukaku trying to fight the Tailed Beasts with their own power.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique", "Wind Release: Wind Cutter", "Water Release: Water Piercing Bullet"...
One ninjutsu after another was unleashed. Bang bang bang, like colorful raindrops pelting Shukaku's massive body, yet not a single drop of water was splashed, let alone any damage was caused.
Not only that, their attacks, which seemed like mere tickles to Shukaku, thoroughly enraged it. With a roar, Shukaku abruptly turned around, determined to teach these tiny insects a painful lesson.
hiss.
Taking a slow breath, Shukaku opened his mouth and suddenly slapped his belly.
Wind Release: Sky Bullet Training!
A massive, semi-transparent sphere erupted from its mouth, containing immense wind-style chakra, and hurtled towards the Konoha members like a missile.
"Oh no! Get out of the way!"
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"
The Konoha ninjas were terrified and scattered in all directions. However, a few young ninjas seemed stunned, staring blankly as the sphere hurtled towards their heads, their eyes filled with despair.
Just then, a small white figure suddenly appeared in front of them with a "whoosh," forming a hand seal.
Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!
Splash!
The azure water surged forth as if from a spring deep within the earth, circling around them and forming a massive, constantly rotating barrier.
083 Battle Between Monsters
(Gentlemen's Exchange Kingdom: **)
boom.
The circular shockwave slammed into the azure barrier, like a boulder thrown into calm water, sending countless droplets spraying out. Simultaneously, the shockwave exploded on the surface of the water array wall, unleashing a powerful hurricane mixed with massive water waves that surged outwards.
Splash splash splash splash.
At that moment, the entire battlefield seemed to be suddenly hit by a violent storm. The wind and rain blew, causing everyone to stagger and fall in all directions.
"Are we... saved?"
"It's Lady Mugetsu!"
"Thank you so much!"
Behind Wuyue, the young ninjas, drenched like drowned rats, bowed repeatedly, all relieved to have escaped this ordeal.
Most of the ninjas who frequently operated around Konoha's headquarters knew Mugetsu, Tsunade's beloved student. They even knew that he was promoted to Jonin at the young age of eight.
"No need to thank me, please step back."
Without turning her head, Wuyue stared at Shukaku and said calmly, "The upcoming battle will be fierce; it's best not to get caught in the crossfire." As soon as she finished speaking, she transformed into a streak of light and rushed towards the other side. During her advance, her hands rapidly formed hand seals, and her cheeks puffed out.
Fire Release: Dragon Flame Song Technique!
Boom boom boom...
Four fiery dragon heads spewed from his mouth. Like four guided missiles, trailing dark red tails, they struck Shukaku's body directly, exploding upon impact. Smoke and dust billowed out.
Roar.
A deafening roar resounded throughout the land.
As the smoke cleared, it became clear that a section of Shukaku's shoulder had turned into fine quicksand, which slid to the ground like blood. But in no time, the quicksand gathered again at the damaged spot, repairing its body.
"Damn it, this recovery speed is truly despair-inducing." Wuyue's lips twitched. She finally understood the solid evidence for the theory that tailed beasts are immortal.
With such ultra-fast regenerative power, there are only two ways to deal with a Tailed Beast: First, inflict full damage in one go, preventing its abilities from being restored temporarily. Second, seal it directly. Forget about attrition warfare or prolonged battles.
However, although Mugetsu's attack did not have any substantial effect on Shukaku, it made its already angry mood even more irritable.
This wretched little bug actually dared to hurt me, it's simply unforgivable!
With that thought in mind, it raised its thick tail high, like a long whip, and lashed out at Wuyue.
Rumble.
The explosions continued, and wherever the tail went, rocks, pillars, flowers, trees, and houses were instantly leveled to the ground. The terrifying destructive power was shocking.
However, its attack clearly missed Wuyue. Given the latter's incredible speed, dodging such a clumsy attack was obviously not difficult.
Using the Instant Step to fly into the air, Mugetsu suddenly spun her right leg and swept it horizontally towards Shukaku's abdomen.
The Heavenly Dragon's Claw!
Zzz.
A sonic boom.
The surrounding air was torn apart by Wuyue's attack. Behind him, a huge, illusory claw suddenly materialized, carrying the force to sweep away thousands of troops, and struck Shukaku directly in the abdomen.
dong dong dong.
Under the terrifying force, Shukaku's massive body involuntarily staggered back several steps, and three claw marks appeared on the part of it that was struck, scattering fine sand all over the ground. Even from a great distance, it was still clearly visible.
· …… ·
Stunned and stunned.
Everyone who witnessed this scene seemed to be frozen in place.
This is a lie, a scam, right? This must be a scam! Am I dreaming?!
Staring blankly at the wound on Shukaku's abdomen, everyone thought the same thing, their eyes wide open, unable to utter a word.
It's no wonder they had such an unbelievable sense of perception, after all, what they were seeing was simply too illogical.
Wuyue, at only eight years old, was like an ant compared to Shukaku's enormous size—a mere ant compared to Mount Tai. Yet what had just happened was as if an ant had gently pushed an entire mountain! How could this not be astonishing and astonishing?!
However, this was just the beginning. What happened next truly overturned their understanding.
With each of Mugetsu's moves—Wing Strike, Fang Smash, and Mighty Fist—Shukaku in front of him was like a giant sandbag, only able to passively take the beating! Puffs of fine sand flew out, and its body gradually became riddled with holes, looking extremely wretched.
They've been suppressed!
Although they found it unbelievable and hard to believe, even the Sand Ninja had to admit that their Tailed Beasts had been suppressed by a child who looked to be less than ten years old.
Confused and bewildered.
At this moment, the Sand Ninja even felt a sense of faith crumbling. Meanwhile, the Konoha ninja were all filled with astonishment and bewilderment.
"That's amazing!"
"Lord Mugetsu, are you really human?"
