Moreover, the target was actually himself.
Thinking of this, Hagoromo quickened her pace, finishing applying the last of the water and oil on her body.
A Hagoromo chakra gathered at Chakra's fingertip as she tapped the Kikaichū that had been clinging to her body.
The moment Muta sensed it, he immediately notified the insects placed on Asuma and the Yutoshi respectively.
Before long, the group of people gathered in a corner.
"What's wrong?"
The Yutoshi asked, after all, she hadn't properly placed the water and oil on her body.
"We have to go, someone's coming this way," Hagoromo, shaking her head.
Upon hearing this, the group was taken aback, and then prepared to leave.
However, Hagoromo wore a serious expression, gazing at the distant sky, and whispered, "It's too late."
The massive Chakra seemed to know they were about to leave, and its speed increased even further.
Without hesitation, Hagoromo immediately contacted Sansan to come over.
He then looked at the group and said, "You guys go first, I'll go stop them."
After saying that, Hagoromo tried to walk out.
Seeing this, Asuma grabbed Hagoromo from behind and said in a deep voice, "With me here, when have I ever needed you to step up?"
As he spoke, he tried to make Hagoromo step back so he could stop the people coming.
Snap--
Hagoromo grabbed Asuma and pulled him back forcefully.
"I've only ever seen such a massive amount of Chakra on the other side in Jinchūriki. Going there is just suicide."
"Go first, then you'll still have a chance to detonate the water and oil trap."
Asuma's expression froze for a moment when he heard that it was Jinchūriki.
If he were just Jonin, he could fight back even if he risked his life, Jinchūriki—
"No, we have to go together." Asuma shook his head firmly.
"Come on, don't make this seem like a life-or-death situation. It's not like I can't run away."
With a disgruntled expression, Hagoromo picked Asuma up and threw him into the air.
Just then, Sansan flew in and caught Asuma. Hagoromo then said to the Yutoshi and Muta:
"Find the right moment and detonate it directly. Don't worry about me."
"Yes!" The Yutoshi and Muta nodded immediately and jumped onto Sansan's back.
Asuma, sitting on Sansan's forehead, also realized, "That's right."
Hagoromo has already defeated the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki; it seems that staying here would only be a hindrance.
"Sansan, thank you for your help."
Thinking of this, Asuma stopped worrying and spoke to Sansan beneath his feet.
"It's alright, just remember to treat me when you get back."
Sansan was well aware of Asuma's generosity; back in Konoha, when Hagoromo wasn't around, it was Asuma who helped pay off the debts incurred by Asuma's lavish Hagoromo.
"It's nothing." Asuma laughed upon hearing this.
Hagoromo watched as Sansan flew away quickly, then glanced at the figure heading in her direction.
He couldn't help but chuckle. "They really came for me."
The words had barely left his mouth when a massive lava bolt slammed into him.
Hagoromo's expression remained unchanged as she stared at the humanoid figure covered in lava.
"The Four-Tails Jinchūriki - Roshi".
"You must be the Third Hokage's disciple?"
Within the magma, Roshi opened his eyes and stared at the excessively young Hagoromo before him, speaking to her.
"Oh? How can you be so sure?"
As she spoke, Hagoromo tore off her Sand Shinobi attire, which concealed her identity, revealing a black Konoha outfit underneath.
Upon hearing this, Roshi couldn't help but rub his forehead.
What did he say? That Ōnoki casually took a corner of Hagoromo's clothing from the battle arena when he was in Kumogakure?
Then, through a special method, the location of the Hagoromo was determined?
Seeing Roshi's appearance, Hagoromo guessed that it was probably some kind of trick by Ōnoki.
That old geezer is really quite the troublemaker.
"You seem very confident?" Although she didn't directly respond to Hagoromo's words, she could tell from the relaxed demeanor of the person in front of her.
Roshi asked, seemingly out of nowhere.
"Not bad, I didn't expect the Stone Shinobi to cooperate with the Sand Shinobi."
"And to send someone like you, Jinchūriki, is quite a grand gesture."
Yu Yi Hagoromo a slight smile as she looked at the Roshi in front of her and said...
"I'm just repaying the village's kindness; after this, I won't interfere in anything related to the village anymore."
Roshi shook his head, glanced at Sansan flying in the sky, and said:
"While I won't harm them, your companions won't escape either."
Hagoromo raised an eyebrow; after all, he had sensed the large number of Chakra beings.
"It's alright, I'll take care of you first."
Hagoromo lightly, and then her entire figure vanished in an instant, turning into a blur.
"Monster Strength - Serious Punch!"
Boom--!
The moment Hagoromo appeared, he clenched his right fist and unleashed a burst of tangible Chakra flames, slamming it directly at Roshi.
Roshi's heart pounded, and without thinking, he leaped back.
This punch—whoever takes it dies!
BOOM!
With a single punch, the ground was instantly torn apart by a Monster Strength.
A dull, loud bang was followed by the sickening sound of rocks cracking and the ground collapsing.
The ground where Roshi had just stood collapsed and rolled over layer by layer, just like fragile building blocks.
Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, a ditch more than four meters wide and deep stretched across the entire logistics camp.
After landing and regaining his balance, Roshi realized that Hagoromo's punch was meant to cut off the Sand Shinobi's pursuit.
Hagoromo flicked her wrist and looked at Roshi.
This is the most he can do right now. Now it depends on whether Asuma and his men can take the opportunity to burn the supplies.
"I heard you can defeat the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki in a head-on confrontation?"
Roshi only asked that one question before quickly forming hand seals, "Lava Release: Scorching River Rock Technique!"
In an instant, several scorching hot magma balls, exuding the smell of sulfur, hurtled towards Hagoromo like miniature suns.
The ground was scorched and emitted black smoke wherever the lava ball passed.
With a swift movement, Hagoromo Yi grasped the dark gray Yang Release Armament in both hands and covered it up. With a light tap of her toes, she headed towards the magma sphere.
Thump--Thump--
Seeing the look of horror on Roshi's face, Hagoromo shattered a magma ball with a single punch.
"Hmph! Let's see how long you can keep this up!"
Roshi let out a cold snort, and his Chakra began to surge, with dark red lava reappearing on his body.
The ground around him melted instantly upon contact, and then his entire figure charged straight toward Hagoromo.
The speed is even faster than before.
"Lava Release Chakra Mode?"
Roshi's figure vanished in an instant, appearing before Hagoromo in a flash, his lava-covered fist aimed straight at Hagoromo's head.
Hagoromo dodged Roshi's powerful attack with a quick dodge.
As a master of Taijutsu, Hagoromo immediately seized the moment when Roshi was stunned after throwing a punch.
In the blink of an eye, a whirlwind kick, covered in Yang Release Armament, swept towards Roshi.
