The Story Third and Chiyo Had to Tell

"Wait a little longer..."

The Second Tsuchikage suddenly realized that he seemed to have made a very serious mistake.

When invisibility is ineffective, Dust Release is slower than the opponent's, and Earth Release ninjutsu cannot withstand the opponent's attacks...

What do you expect me to use to stall for time?

'Boom--'

Sure enough, in the short moment that the Second Tsuchikage was lost in thought, his body was blasted apart by Hinata's Makankosappo.

The rotating Spiral Light Ray shot out into the distance, instantly piercing through the Spiral Light Ray and earth walls protecting Sunagakure. The Spiral Light Ray disappeared into the distant sky as small stars with a 'ding' sound.

In the brief moment between landing, the Second Tsuchikage had only one thought in his mind.

"I... the Second Tsuchikage, named 'Mu,' a name that has been illustrious for generations... I must have been influenced by that idiot Hozuki Gengetsu!"

In the Second Tsuchikage's perception, the Second Mizukage was panting heavily, hiding in a corner in the distance, a wicked grin on his face, his mustache twitching.

The fat clone created by the Steaming Danger Tyranny, despite its serious expression, somehow gives off a 'joyful' feeling...

"Hozuki Gengetsu me!"

After finding a scapegoat for his own lack of intelligence, the Second Tsuchikage felt incredibly wise again.

'Bang!'

The remains of the Second Tsuchikage fell to the ground, and Hinata, Hinata was floating in the air, could still be faintly heard shouting "Sealing Division!"

In his final moments before being sealed away, the Second Tsuchikage offered his last blessing to Ōnoki, who was far away in Iwagakure... "I hope your lifelong nemesis won't be as ridiculous as Hozuki Gengetsu!"

Hinata: "..."

In ninja battles, even evenly matched sides will not drag on for too long.

In the Original Story, the battle between Chiyo and Sakura against Sasori of the Red Sands, although it lasted for several episodes, was actually only a few minutes long.

In short, the battle, which seemed to have been dragged out for several chapters, actually only lasted a few minutes...

Orochimaru clearly said that Hinata should delay for ten minutes.

"From the moment he made the move until now, it shouldn't have been more than three minutes, right?"

Hinata felt that she had a long way to go and a heavy responsibility to shoulder.

There were only six enemies in total, and Hinata was trying her best to stall for time. But with one enemy every minute, Hinata couldn't take it anymore!

"This task is way too difficult!"

Therefore, Hinata had to float in the air, gazing into the distance, adopting a posture of 'life is as lonely as snow,' expressing her loneliness and emptiness as the strongest Shinobi World.

How lonely it is to be invincible! How empty it is to be invincible...

Feeling the admiring gazes of the Sand Village Sand Ninja around her, Hinata felt that after this battle, the alliance between Konoha and Sunagakure would be even stronger, and she would be able to extricate herself from the suspicion.

Hopefully, this will buy us a few seconds!

But...

Hinata felt that it would be a bit silly to maintain this posture.

Seeing that the Second Tsuchikage had already been sealed by the Sunagakure's Sealing Division, Hinata flapped her wings and flew towards the Third Hokage.

The Third Hokage was an old acquaintance, someone who had watched Hinata grow up.

As the saying goes, when fellow villagers meet, their eyes well up with tears.

If I could catch up with the Third Hokage and have a tearful, deeply moving scene, it could probably buy me a lot of time.

"Huh?"

In my Natural Sensing, the Kazekage's Office in the distance seems to be acting strangely.

Byakugan's gaze fell upon them, and he saw two ninjas dressed in the clothes of ordinary people from the Land of Wind, sneaking out of the window of the Kazekage's Office.

Judging from their appearance, they had obviously succeeded and were now preparing to escape from Sunagakure.

"Well done!"

Gaara actually hid the remnants of the Impure World Reincarnation scroll in the Kazekage's Office?

If Orochimaru hadn't intervened, the people of Kumogakure probably would never have succeeded!

Even if Gaara is lured to the exam venue in the Second Exam, the Anbu guarding the Kazekage's Office are not easy for a few Jonin to deal with.

But right now...

The entire Sunagakure had become a battlefield. Gaara, Chiyo, and Ebizo were all fighting personally. How could the Anbu possibly have time to spare for Kazekage's Office?

Moreover, for Sunagakure at this time, only by having the Kumogakure's ninja steal the Impure World Reincarnation could the battle of the Six Kage besieging Sunagakure be ended.

Hinata could see clearly that the Kazekage's Office was almost completely unguarded, and the two Cloud Ninja easily took the Impure World Reincarnation.

Even their escape route was not heavily guarded by Anbu agents.

Unless they're unlucky, these two Cloud Ninja should be able to escape Sunagakure without any problems.

"That makes things much easier!"

Hinata also breathed a sigh of relief.

The plan for Kumogakure went smoothly, so Hinata didn't need to delay for ten minutes.

While she was thinking, Hinata had already flown to the battlefield where the Third Hokage and Chiyo were fighting, and shouted with enthusiasm and emotion, "Hokage!"

Hinata?

"You've grown so much!"

The five Third Hokage stopped moving at the same time, Chiyo also controlled the remaining four puppets to retreat to her side.

Hinata glanced at it quickly.

Overall, the Third Hokage still held the upper hand, and Chiyo was no longer able to hold on.

As an elderly couple, Chiyo's physical strength and fitness had declined significantly, while the Third Hokage, being Impure World Reincarnation body, had recovered his physical strength and chakra to their peak.

Chiyo was badly injured.

The Third Hokage looked at Hinata with a hint of surprise on his face. "Hinata, what are you doing here?"

Hinata exclaimed with delight, "I'll be in charge of the Chunin Ninja Exams!"

"I never expected to see the Hokage here!"

"That Orochimaru dares to toy with the souls of the dead! If I ever see him again, I'll smash his head in!" Hinata raised her little fist and threatened fiercely.

The Third Hokage died young and did not witness Hinata's later growth, so he naturally did not know Hinata's true power.

However, the Third Hokage was still very pleased to hear Hinata's words.

However, Orochimaru, who was hiding in an underground base, didn't feel particularly well.

Orochimaru didn't know whether Hinata was saying this to the Third Hokage or was serious.

If it's just acting, that's fine, but if it's serious... Orochimaru felt he might end up like Sasuke.

The Third Hokage's expression turned serious, and he said in a stern tone, "Hinata, this battle is not for you to participate in!"

Turning his gaze to Chiyo, the Third Hokage said in a deep voice, "Chiyo, Orochimaru's main body must be not far from here. Immediately organize a team of Jonin and have Hinata lead them to find Orochimaru."

"Only Orochimaru can undo the Impure World Reincarnation!"

"If the fighting continues, Sunagakure will be finished!"

Chiyo: No! We have a better way to seal the Impure World Reincarnation!

Chiyo glanced at Hinata and said calmly, "Little girl, I'm leaving this place to you!"

After glancing at the Third Hokage one last time, Chiyo said in a cryptic tone, "Konoha has a worthy successor. Old man, you should experience this for yourself!"

Hinata looked around, first glancing at the Third, then at Chiyo.

These two wouldn't be...
