Naruto: Sasuke Uchiha Returns from Soul Society

"Don't be so nervous."

Faced with Jiraiya's cold questioning, Yoruichi simply chuckled and weighed Tsunade and Shizune on her shoulders.

"Don't worry, she's still alive. We'll just let her sleep for a while."

She turned her head to the side, her eyes full of mockery.

"But then again, this woman..."

Yoruichi's gaze swept over Tsunade's voluptuous figure, then looked at Jiraiya's cold face, and the corners of her mouth curved into a wider smile.

It's much heavier than it looks.

This teasing remark made Jiraiya's eyes darken; the situation was far worse than he had imagined.

He knew very well that he had not gained any advantage in his brief exchange with Sasuke.

And now, there's another mysterious woman who can easily defeat Tsunade.

Jiraiya had no doubt that even in his prime, it would not have been easy for him to gain an advantage over her.

An unfathomable Uchiha Sasuke, plus a powerful and mysterious woman.

And then there's Naruto, still fast asleep in the corner...

Jiraiya's heart sank little by little as a long-lost sense of pressure enveloped him.

He instinctively reached behind him and grasped the huge spirit scroll.

We can no longer afford to be skeptical.

Whether it's to rescue Tsunade, to protect Naruto, or even to keep these two extremely dangerous and unstable factors here...

He has to show his true strength now.

"Little brat."

Jiraiya's gaze locked onto Sasuke once more, his voice low and menacing, "Whatever your purpose, I will never allow you to leave here with Tsunade!"

His blood-stained thumb slid across the palm of his other hand, before his hand was slammed heavily to the ground.

"Spiritual communication!"

With his roar, a psychic array inscribed with complex incantations suddenly unfolded on the ground, centered on him.

Chapter 131 The Lament of a Thousand Birds!

Three massive plumes of smoke rose one after another from the center of the magic array, creating a tremendous spectacle.

As the smoke slowly dissipated, three enormous figures, as large as mountains, were fully revealed before Sasuke.

Leading the pack was a massive, crimson toad with a huge dagger at its waist and a pipe in its mouth.

To his left was a slightly smaller blue toad, holding a trident and a round shield, with a somewhat dull expression.

On the right is another dark green toad carrying two swords and with sharp eyes.

The appearance of the three giant beasts instantly made the already chaotic street even more crowded.

"Hey, what's going on, Jiraiya!"

The leader, Gamabunta, exhaled smoke rings, his huge eyes glancing at Jiraiya above him, then at his companion beside him. His voice was loud and clear, tinged with displeasure.

"What trouble have you gotten yourself into that you've summoned all three of us at once?!"

"I'm sorry, Bunta."

Jiraiya's voice was deep as he slowly raised his hands and used his blood-stained thumbs to heavily smear around his eyes, instantly creating two bright red eyeshadows.

Upon seeing this action, the expressions on the faces of the three giant toads changed simultaneously.

"No way, you bastard..." Gamabunta's pipe slipped from his lips. "Could it be..."

Jiraiya clasped his hands together in front of his chest, maintaining the gesture, his voice becoming extremely solemn.

"Just as you expected, I will summon those two immortals."

“But summoning them will take some time, during which time my hands cannot be separated.”

Jiraiya's gaze was fixed on the two calm figures in the distance.

"Please, buy me some time before then!"

The three giant toads followed Jiraiya's gaze and looked at Sasuke and Yoruichi together.

"I see......"

Gamabunta picked up his pipe again, the flippancy in his eyes gone. "An enemy that you're willing to use Sage Mode to deal with must be no pushover."

Toad Ken stood with his huge shield in front of him, his voice muffled, "Although I'm useless, I'll try my best."

Sasuke quietly looked at the three mountains of flesh before him, then glanced at Jiraiya, whose chakra flowed in a strange way, and a smile curved his lips.

The feeling this gave him was surprisingly similar to that of Jugo back then. Was it also the so-called Sage Mode?

At the same time, Yoruichi also looked at the three enormous creatures in front of her with great interest, a smile of anticipation on her face.

"A one-on-three warm-up? That sounds like it would be quite interesting."

She turned her head and glanced at Sasuke beside her. "So, kid, do you need me to take care of these two for you?"

"No need," Sasuke said calmly. "You can just watch from the side."

The moment he finished speaking, he took a step forward, his figure blurred, and he disappeared from his original spot, charging alone towards the three giant toads.

"Ha! What an arrogant brat!"

Enraged by Sasuke's arrogant attitude, Gamabunta suddenly pulled out his huge short sword, the blade drawing a blinding spark on the ground.

"Let me teach you what it means to be arrogant and ignorant!"

However, Sasuke's figure left a blurry afterimage in mid-air before easily dodging them and rushing into their midst.

"So fast!" Wentai was shocked.

Sasuke's first target was Gamabunta, who looked the clumsiest.

"Water Release: Water Gun!"

Gamabunta reacted quickly, turning his head sharply, his huge cheeks bulging out, and a water bullet compressed from high-density chakra shot out.

Sasuke didn't even turn his head, but just let out a low cry while moving at high speed.

Indra.

A jet-black flame, like a living barrier, exploded behind him, engulfing the water bullet completely.

"Leave it to me!"

On the other side, Gama Hiro, who had been waiting for an opportunity, had already drawn his twin swords from his back. Before the blades even arrived, the sharp wind pressed down on the air, causing it to emit a piercing, mournful sound.

However, Sasuke's figure inexplicably twisted in mid-air.

"Clang—Snap!"

Two crisp sounds that almost overlapped.

The massive twin swords of Gamahiro shattered like fragile glass the instant they crossed with the pale blue light.

The broken blade tumbled through the air before helplessly embedding itself in the ground some distance away.

"What?!" Gamahiro's eyes were filled with disbelief.

"Don't try to succeed!"

Gamaken finally reacted. Seeing the bolt of lightning heading straight for his companion, he roared and spun the heavy round shield in his hand like a giant flying disc, slicing it down towards Sasuke's waist!

Sasuke's attack was forced to stop. He lightly touched the shield with his toes and floated backward, landing steadily in mid-air.

Just then, the sky suddenly darkened.

"Go to hell, you brat!"

With a roar, it swung its short sword down with its terrifying weight towards Sasuke in mid-air.

However, on his escape route, Gamaken had already opened his jaws wide, completely blocking all his escape routes!

"Water Release: Iron Cannon Ball!"

In the distance, Yoruichi's cat-like eyes narrowed slightly. Even she had to admit that the three toads' collaboration was indeed quite interesting.

But that's all.

"The Thirty-Nine Ways of Binding".

A calm voice rang out in the center of the battlefield.

"Round sluice gate!"

Sasuke's figure suddenly stopped in mid-air, and his left hand was raised to his chest. A circular light shield made of high-density spiritual particles suddenly unfolded around him!

Almost the instant the light shield was formed—

"boom--!!!"

Gamabunta's heavy slash and Gamaken's water cannon struck the light shield, which didn't look particularly thick, almost simultaneously.

The dull thuds of impact continued, and the escaping shockwaves tore apart the surrounding ground.

However, the light shield only trembled slightly before completely neutralizing all the attacks without leaving a trace.

"Okay! That's it!"

Seeing this from afar, Jiraiya felt not worry, but rather a glimmer of hope.

As long as we can stall until that technique is completed...

"Water Release: Water Chaos Waves!"

The three giant toads seemed to realize this as well, and opened their mouths at the same time.

Three enormous water bullets roared out, rapidly merging in mid-air to form a massive azure water sphere that crushed towards Sasuke.

However, Sasuke merely snorted in response to this devastating attack.

He quickly sheathed "Takemikazuchi" and gripped the other sword at his waist.
