Konoha: Intentionally losing to Hinata at the start

Hong had two questions, but Yu Ming only answered the second one.

"I created a clone to fight him there."

As soon as Yu Ming finished speaking, Hong Dou stared blankly at him. "One, a clone?"

"Are you kidding me?"

However, Yu Ming did not refute it, but just smiled.

Hong thought for a moment and said, "Yu Ming was treating us just now, how can he go?"

Hongdou then remembered, and as soon as she thought about it, her eyes widened. "You managed to fight that ghost like that with just one clone?"

Hongdou couldn't even begin to imagine how terrifying Yu Ming's true strength must be, considering that just one clone had fought so well.

Yu Ming, on the other hand, appeared quite calm. "Let's go back. This mission is complete."

Hong looked at Yu Ming, her face slightly flushed. Although Yu Ming had tried to save them, she had indeed seen it, and besides, Yu Ming was no longer a child.

This made Kurenai Yuhi somewhat embarrassed.

Hongdou didn't care at all. She was single and quite familiar with Yuming. Besides, she believed that Yuming had no interest in her body.

Hongdou is right. Yuming really did just want to treat them; he didn't mean anything by it.

Although both of them had great figures, Yu Ming had no other evil thoughts. After all, with Tsunade, no matter how good a figure was, it couldn't compare to hers.

However, this was not the main reason. Rather, Yu Ming genuinely only wanted to treat the two of them and never thought of anything else.

Although Hongdou didn't mind, she was in a relationship, and being looked at like that by Yuming made her feel really bad for Asma.

She and Asma didn't get to the point with Yu Ming...

But Yu Ming saw it all clearly in an instant.

Although she understood that Yu Ming was only trying to save her, the fact was that Yu Ming really saw everything clearly.

Standing in front of Yu Ming, she always felt a little uncomfortable.

Just as Yu Ming and Hong Dou were about to leave, Hong looked at Yu Ming and said, "Yu Ming, you didn't see anything just now, right?"

Kurenai looked at Yu Ming, hoping he could give her a satisfactory answer.

Hongdou then laughed and asked, "How's my figure?"

Because she had a good relationship with Yu Ming and also had feelings for him, she didn't blame him; instead, she teased him.

Yu Ming frowned, but he didn't want Xi Ri Hong to carry too much of a burden.

So he said, "No, I didn't see anything."

Kurenai Yuhi breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you."

Hongdou smiled, but she didn't ask the question she had just asked again.

The three of them didn't waste any time on the road and spent more than a day before finally returning to Konoha.

Just as Yu Ming returned to Konoha, he heard the news that Gaara had been kidnapped by Akatsuki.

Standing in the Hokage's office, Tsunade sighed, "It seems Akatsuki has begun its move."

Yu Ming walked to the windowsill. In the entire Hokage Room, there were only him and Tsunade.

Yu Ming calmly asked, "Is it still a two-person team this time? Xiao always goes out in pairs."

Tsunade didn't really know much about the situation in Sunagakure; she only knew that Akatsuki had made a move and had kidnapped the Kazekage of Sunagakure.

The fact that a Kage from a ninja village was kidnapped is indeed a great disgrace.

However, this kind of thing, where a hidden village is discovered in Sand 5.5, happens frequently.

The Third Kazekage was poisoned to death by Sasori of the Red Sand, the Fourth Kazekage was assassinated by Orochimaru, Kabuto Yakushi, and Kimimaro, and now the Fifth Kazekage has been kidnapped by Akatsuki.

Sunagakure has indeed suffered many misfortunes, and it seems that apart from the First and Second Kazekage, the subsequent Kazekage did not have a good ending.

Gaara would probably be dead if it weren't for Chiyo's magic.

However, it's also clear how weak Sunagakure has become; they don't have a single ninja who can rival Sasori and Deidara.

The ninjas in Akatsuki are indeed all highly skilled, at least elite Jonin. Even Hidan has a secret technique that, if you don't know his information, even a Kage-level ninja like Yugito Nii, who can completely control the Tailed Beasts, could fall victim to.

Moreover, Kumogakure is a powerful ninja village, yet even so, Yugito Nii was still captured.

Akatsuki's strength is indeed formidable.

Chapter 203 Tsunade's Power

It seems that, apart from Konoha, there is currently no single major ninja village capable of dealing with them.

Moreover, there is Nagato, a powerhouse who surpasses the Kage level. In the ninja world, only Yu Ming can rival him.

Or Naruto could master the Nine-Tails' power.

The reason why Konoha was able to resist Akatsuki was because of Yu Ming's existence, which at least guaranteed Konoha's safety.

Tsunade looked at Yu Ming and said, "I don't know their situation yet, but based on Akatsuki's past practices, they should be working in pairs."

"Initially, our intelligence also indicated that there were two people in Akatsuki, but I don't know the specifics of the situation yet."

Thinking of this, Tsunade remembered that Yu Ming seemed to have come to report the ghostly figure to her.

"By the way, you submitted that task. What exactly happened?"

Yu Ming looked out the window and said calmly, "The Ghost Clan does indeed still have many members, but they have all turned into skeletons. It seems that they have opened a barrier and sacrificed their own clansmen."

"Their goal was to obtain a fully spiritualized powerhouse, but they have not succeeded. The last member of their clan also aimed to sacrifice himself to the God of Death in order to achieve full spiritualization."

"The reason they slaughtered so many ninja villages was to obtain the souls of ninjas. It has to be said that this clan is indeed very evil."

"However, the last member of the clan, Ghost Shadow, was very strong, even surpassing the Kage level, but he still died in the end."

Upon hearing this, Tsunade knew just how terrifying the enemy Yu Ming was facing this time was.

It's even more terrifying than the Akatsuki ninjas; it possesses power surpassing the Kage level, and once fully spiritualized, it can truly contend with genjutsu.

Moreover, the last time Ghost Shadow asked Death to lend him power, his strength far surpassed that of the original Spirit Transformer.

Even Yu Ming's illusion, which was stronger than Tsukuyomi, had no effect on him.

It's easy to imagine that in that state, he couldn't even defeat the Uchiha clan members who possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Tsunade nodded. "Since you said it yourself, it's that powerful, it probably really is far beyond the Kage level."

Yu Ming turned around, looked at Tsunade, and smiled, "But this is also my first time using Sage Mode in battle, and it feels really good."

Tsunade paused for a moment, then said with some surprise, "That guy actually made you use Sage Mode, that's really strong."

It's important to know that Yu Ming didn't use Sage Mode when he was suppressing the Three-Tails and fighting Orochimaru.

It's easy to imagine just how terrifying that ghostly figure was.

Fortunately, Yu Ming solved the problem. If such a powerful person had succeeded, it would have posed a huge threat to Konoha.

Furthermore, although the Uchiha clan was wiped out, the Uchiha clan once belonged to Konoha, and it was the Land of Fire that hired the Uchiha clan to wipe out the Oni clan.

If they retaliate, with thousands of clansmen and a Kage-level powerhouse attacking Konoha, the entire village might not be able to withstand it.

If it weren't for Yu Ming, Konoha would have had a very hard time withstanding such a disaster.

Actually, Tsunade was overthinking things. In fact, if the Oni clan hadn't had Yu Ming, their final sacrifice would have failed as well.

However, Yu Ming's appearance forced them to increase their strength, causing their power to surge in a short period of time.

This also resulted in the emergence of a super-shadow-level powerhouse within them for a short period of time.

After Tsunade recounted the details of the mission to him, she looked at Yu Ming and rolled her eyes at him, saying, "You, really, I don't even know what to say about you."

Yu Ming told Tsunade about how he treated Hong Dou and Hong; there was nothing to hide.

However, Tsunade was not a petty person. She naturally knew what kind of person Yu Ming was, and she did not blame him.

I just feel that Yu Ming did something that was unfair to Hong.

"Hong and Asuma are almost a couple, and you suddenly do something like this. How is she supposed to face Asuma after this?"

Yu Ming leaned against the windowsill, appearing quite calm. "If she doesn't say anything, who will know? I won't tell anyone, and I don't have any ill intentions. Am I just going to let her die?"

Tsunade also knew that Yu Ming had no choice.

What can be done?

However, if Yu Ming had healing pills, he would definitely use them.

However, Yu Ming had only made a very small number of those pills to begin with, and they had all been used up long ago. After giving Tsunade two of them, there were none left.

Hearing Yu Ming's words, Tsunade leaned back in her chair and said helplessly, "Then you must not tell anyone about this, otherwise Kurenai will really have no face to live."

Yu Ming nodded. "I'm not that despicable."

After saying that, Tsunade laughed and asked, "Is it because I have a better figure, or are the two of them better?"

Hearing this, Yu Ming turned to look at Tsunade. Tsunade thought Yu Ming would be shy, but Yu Ming laughed and said, "Compared to you, no one can compare."

Tsunade was stunned for a moment, then saw Yu Ming looking at her with a smile, and Tsunade knew that her purpose had been seen through.

Quickly change the subject: "Why don't you go and take a look at Sunagakure? I'm still a little worried."

Yu Ming thought about it and realized he really had nothing to do during this time. "Okay."

Tsunade had already sent Guy's team to support Kakashi.

However, Tsunade was still somewhat uneasy. The stability of Sunagakure was also very important to Konoha. If a Third Shinobi World War were to occur, with the Third Kazekage disappearing and triggering a war, it would not be good for Konoha at all.

Aside from Yu Ming, Konoha's current high-level combat strength consists mainly of Tsunade and Jiraiya.

Kakashi is still unable to break through the Kage level.

Although Guy has the Eight Gates, the Fourth Shinobi World War was a full-scale war, not something that could be resolved by killing one or two people.

Even Minato Namikaze, who shone brightly in the Third Shinobi World War, needed to rush to various battlefields to provide support.

Kai's overall abilities are nowhere near those of Minato Namikaze.

He's not even as good as Kakashi.

Therefore, Tsunade does not actually want to start a ninja world war.

She didn't want it to happen, whether it was an attack by Sunagakure or an attack by other ninja villages.
