To pay off the debt, become Hokage!

Each puppet is a member of the puppeteer's family.

In Sand Village, there is a saying circulating among puppeteers, and every puppeteer agrees with it.

So... seeing the puppet damaged was like a family member getting hurt, and Chiyo was in great pain.

Moreover, that is the masterpiece of Bunzaemon, the founder of puppeteers!

Carrara——

When it rains, it pours. Chiyo heard the sound and thought to herself that something was wrong. She turned around and saw that Hatake Sakumo had already chopped all three puppets in the triangle formation into pieces...

"Damn Hatake Sakumo, damn Tsunade-sama!"

Chiyo was enraged and raised her hands. She threw the bottle of transparent colorless liquid out, which shattered on the ground and clear, odorless gas began to spread.

Tsunade scoffed, "Are you getting senile? Old woman, your poison is completely useless now!"

"Princess Tsunade, please take another good look!"

Chiyo kindly reminded her, and then a few quick whistles rang out across the battlefield.

Upon hearing this, the Chunins of the Sand Village did not continue their pursuit as before after repelling the Konoha ninjas, but instead retreated directly and gathered around Chiyo.

"Hmm?" After being reminded by Chiyo, Tsunade frowned, sniffed a few times, and then used her hand to touch the gas and put it into her mouth.

Tsunade smacked her lips a few times and her expression changed.

"It's not poison...it's medicine! A hallucinogenic drug!"

Tsunade suddenly looked at all the Konoha ninjas, and saw that some of them began to become dazed, their steps unsteady, and they could not control themselves.

"Your understanding of poison and medicine is too clear, Princess Tsunade." Chiyo saw that everyone from Sunagakure had come over, so she laughed at Tsunade and said, "This kind of hallucinogenic drug that is not lethal and has a short-lived effect, even though it has a low toxicity, is often used in the medical field to treat diseases and save lives. But no matter how low its toxicity is, it is still a poison. This is not a hallucinogenic drug, it is a hallucinogenic poison!"

"You have grasped the pattern and habit of my use of poison, so you have specially made an antidote for me. Most of my poisons are indeed ineffective, but as a doctor, I will also go against my habits and do alternative research in areas that I am not good at in order to seek innovation. Princess Tsunade, this is my achievement! You have never seen a hallucinogenic poison, right? Will your antidote still work?"

Hearing Chiyo's harsh laughter, Tsunade took a deep breath and said to Chiyo: "Senior has walked a longer road than me, and the junior has a lot to learn. I have learned the lesson today, and I will never make the same mistake again."

Tsunade glanced at the Konoha ninjas rushing behind her and said, "The hallucinogenic poison is indeed a new thing, but the toxicity is too low. Most people are not affected by it."

Tsunade looked at Hatake Sakumo and saw him nodding implicitly.

Tsunade understood and said to Chiyo in a deep voice: "Are you going to run away, Senior~"

Tsunade pronounced the word "senior" word by word, full of sarcasm.

Chiyo didn't waste time talking to them. Just as Tsunade thought, Chiyo waved her left hand and everyone immediately retreated to the rear.

Chiyo looked back at the shattered puppets of the Chikamatsu Ten People, and her heart felt like it was bleeding. She could only go back and put a lot of effort into making them according to the drawings left by the ancestor Bunzaemon.

This is the helplessness of the puppeteer. After a battle, there will always be puppets that are damaged, and there will be no time to recover them...

"Let's chase!"

Hatake Sakumo led the way, followed by Tsunade and other Konoha people, who followed closely behind to pursue Chiyo's troops.

But they did not chase with all their strength. Hatake Sakumo was like a leading sheep. When he went faster, the other Konoha ninjas behind him also went faster. Conversely, when he went slower, the other Konoha ninjas also went slower.

In short, the purpose is to give Chiyo's troops the illusion that they are being caught up, while also giving them hope that they can retreat.

There was no one in Chiyo's army who wanted to stay and fight to the death with Hatake Sakumo and others. If they could leave alive, naturally no one would choose to stay and die - without the help of Lord Chiyo's poison, facing Hatake Sakumo and others would naturally be an act of suicide.

The Sand Village troops moved quite quickly and soon retreated to the Sand Village camp.

"Something's wrong..."

Chiyo began to feel uneasy.

Where were the patrolling Sand Village ninjas? Was the outpost too quiet? And...she remembered that there were weapons and equipment here, but where were those things? Why were they gone?

But there were Konoha ninjas chasing them behind them, and it was not the time to stop and figure out the problems, so Chiyo and the others could only keep moving forward.

Then... everyone in Sunagakure was shocked to see that their neatly arranged camp had turned into a messy ruin.

In front of the messy camp, with his white hair flying, Jiraiya stretched out his big palm and laughed.

"Chiyo, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

......

Chapter 145: Are you dumbfounded, Ye Cang?

Ye Cang's eyes blurred, and Uchiha Shigeka appeared in front of her, bathed in lightning.

Thunder flashed in her right hand, and the violent lightning was silent, heading towards her heart.

Ye Cang was horrified, his hair stood up, and he quickly dodged to the side. At the same time, the scorching fireballs surrounding him seemed to have just reacted and started to move, rushing towards Uchiha Shigeka.

laugh--

Ye Cang frowned and groaned. She dodged in time and ducked to avoid it, but was hit on the shoulder by the opponent's Lightning Release Ninjutsu, leaving a bloody mark. Lightning was attached to it, and Ye Cang suddenly felt the left half of her body become paralyzed.

Uchiha Shigeka secretly said what a pity and stepped back. The next moment, as if the distance had shrunk into an inch, Uchiha Shigeka's figure appeared twenty meters away.

The Burning Release fireball swayed up and down, angry at Uchiha Shigeka's departure, and the fireball, which was approaching a burning white color, burned more and more vigorously.

"Master Ye Cang, are you okay?"

Several Sunagakure ninjas gathered around the pale-faced Ye Cang, showing their concern for her.

"Phew, I was injured a little, but it's nothing serious."

Ye Cang stopped his companions from helping him, and looked at Uchiha Shigeka with fear with his beautiful eyes - mainly at the lightning chakra armor that was visible to the naked eye.

"That's Kumogakure's secret technique. I didn't expect you to have successfully developed it."

She had seen lightning surrounding Uchiha Shigeka before, but it had never formed into lightning armor like it did now.

In the past, he was very fast with the help of lightning, but now Uchiha Shigeka is even faster and his defense has greatly increased.

Looking at the Sand Village companions who died with their eyes open beside Uchiha Shigeka, Ye Cang felt secretly resentful.

"You guys go help the others, I will deal with Uchiha Shigeka alone."

As soon as Ye Cang said this, he immediately aroused opposition from others.

Ye Cang glared at them: "You have also seen the end of Sunasai and others. Your attacks are useless against Uchiha Shigeka. Blindly attacking will only result in unnecessary sacrifices!"

Upon hearing this, the Sand Village ninjas wanted to say something, but in the end they hesitated a few times and were ultimately unable to refute Ye Cang's words.

Uchiha Shigeka's lightning chakra armor had too strong a defensive power, and their escape techniques and puppets were completely useless against him.

On the contrary, Uchiha Shigeka's attack killed them instantly!

Such sacrifice has no effect on the battle situation!

The Sand Village ninjas nodded, "Lord Yekura, please be careful."

With that, the Sand Village ninjas left to attack other Konoha ninjas.

In a corner of the battlefield, only Ye Cang and Uchiha Shigeka were left.

Uchiha Shigeka silently watched the Sand Village ninjas leave, and said to Ye Cang: "It's a futile resistance. Among all of you, only your Scorch Release is troublesome. The rest of you..."

Uchiha Shigeka shook his head: "I am no match for Uncle Zong Xing and the others."

The number of Konoha ninjas who stood in the way of the Yekura force was not large - the Yekura force outnumbered them several times over.

But although the number of Konoha ninjas is small, each of them is strong, and teacher Tsunade gave them antidote before they carried out the mission.

The Sand Village is good at using poison, and they have an antidote, which can effectively eliminate most of this troublesome poison. It becomes much easier for the Konoha ninjas to deal with the Sand Village.

"As long as we can keep you here, Konoha will be the final winner!"

The killing power of Burning Escape is terrifying. If it touches a person, it will evaporate the moisture in the person's body, turning the person into a horrible mummy.

The reason why it has not caused any trouble to the Konoha ninjas now is all because Uchiha Shigeka has dragged Ye Cang here.

Ye Cang took a deep breath and did not comment on Uchiha Shigeka's words.

Thinking about the situation where he was almost stabbed in the heart by Uchiha Shigeka just now, Ye Cang did not dare to be careless and hurriedly repaired the loopholes in his defense.

She waved her hands, and the Scorch Release fireball split into small fireballs, gathering around Ye Cang and surrounding her, in fact forming a Scorch Release-generated armor.

——Uchiha Shigeka’s speed is too fast to be tracked and captured by the naked eye, so the only thing to do is to weaken the power of Scorch Release and strengthen defense.

Uchiha Shigeka stroked the lightning chakra armor in front of him, then looked at Ye Cang's scorching escape "armor", blinked and said: "It seems that your chakra control ability is not strong enough, and the armor formed still has loopholes."

Swah——

Uchiha Shigeka suddenly disappeared in front of Ye Cang, and she suddenly felt like she was facing a formidable enemy, and her body subconsciously tensed up.

Uchiha Shigeka's figure reappeared. Ye Cang blinked and could see Uchiha Shigeka's ink-black hair up close - she remembered not to look at Uchiha's Sharingan.

[So close! ]

Ye Cang was startled, but he reacted quickly, raising his right index finger. The scorching fireballs immediately converged in the middle, with flames connected to each other, and in an instant they turned into a flaming disc.

Uchiha Shigeka looked at the gap between the fireballs, and the Chidori that was sent towards the weak point of Ye Cang's defense suddenly paused.

Behind the flaming disc, Ye Cang's mouth curled up in a mocking arc and she sneered.

If Uchiha Shigeka has the guts, just continue. The flame of the burning escape will evaporate all the lightning, chakra, and moisture in his right hand!

Uchiha Shigeka's voice rang in Ye Cang's ears: "You must think that I can't do anything in this situation, right?"

"Ok?"

Ye Cang frowned, and the next moment, her pupils shrank. She looked to the right in amazement. A ball of dark blue chakra passed through the gap between the fireballs and hit her right arm.

[How is that possible!? I clearly calculated the length of his arm extension... What is that!?]

Ye Cang's eyes were fixed on the... Chakra hand that was dragging the Rasengan! ?

That was not Uchiha Shigeka's hand, but a chakra hand formed by alternating real and virtual chakra energy!

The moment he was hit by the Rasengan, Ye Cang remembered what Uchiha Shigeka had said before.

[It seems that your chakra control ability is not strong enough...]

It was as if her hands could condense real high-density chakra, and her chakra control ability was indeed not as strong as the other party's.

Uchiha Shigeka's arms are not long enough, but his chakra hands can make up for the shortcoming.

boom!

There was a roar.

The Sand Village ninja who was paying attention here looked at Master Ye Cang in confusion as he was knocked flying and hit a tree... The tree could not withstand the impact and was directly broken by Ye Cang. The momentum did not decrease, and continuous noises were heard, and finally there was no sound.

The Sand Village ninja looked at the shocking bloodstains on the ground, his throat rolled and his pupils trembled.

"Ye Cang...Ye Cang-sama!!!"

Immediately, several Sand Village ninjas broke away from the battle and headed towards Ye Canggan.

"I can't let you pass."

shhhhh--

Namikaze Minato, Hyuga Hizashi, Uchiha Mikoto and others blocked the way of the Sand Village ninja.

Uchiha Mikoto glared at him with her double magatama Sharingan and said coldly: "I can't let you disturb Chonghua's battle!"

......

Chapter 146: Look into my eyes, Ye Cang

Just as Uchiha Mikoto and others stopped the Sand Village ninja, Uchiha Shigeka was about to rush into the dense forest to hunt down Ye Cang.

boom--

A huge roar came from the south, surging flames flickered, and thick smoke rushed into the sky.

Uchiha Shigeka was stunned for a moment, then closed his eyes and opened Kagura's mind's eye.

Within the range of his mind's eye, the chakra reactions of the Sand Village ninjas, symbolizing the yellow sand, were flickering. As time went on, the chakra reactions of the Sand Village ninjas one after another suddenly disappeared.

At the same time, Uchiha Shigeka suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked at Uchiha Muneyuki and other Uchiha clan members.

——The Sharingan genjutsu they projected onto the crow was activated.

"Ok?"

Uchiha Shigeka stopped chasing Ye Cang.

In his Kagura mind's observation, Ye Cang's chakra reaction did not appear in the dense forest, but was moving towards the south at a very fast speed.

"Uncle Zong Xing, Ye Cang is heading towards Senior Ding Shan and the others. I'm going to chase him and stop Ye Cang!"
