One-Tails Shukaku

Shuichi and Orochimaru's executioner-like behavior was Sunagakure to bear. In the blink of an eye, a barrage of hidden Hidden Weapons rained down on the two of them, and it was Chiyo who made the move.

The two swiftly dodged the attack. "Leave this to me, teacher," Shuichi said.

He was quite experienced in dealing with Puppeteers and was confident that he could restrain Chiyo by himself, thus relieving pressure on Konoha.

Orochimaru didn't stand on ceremony with him and flashed off to other parts of the battlefield to continue killing enemies.

"Boy, you're too arrogant!" Chiyo was already furious after seeing the Puppeteer army slaughtered by them. Now that she saw Shuichi alone here, she immediately went all out to kill him.

Several White Puppets rushed towards him from multiple directions. Before they even got close, Senbon enveloped the entire escape area. Judging from the eerie light emanating from them, they were clearly extremely poisonous.

"Earth Release: Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall!" After forming Shuichi slammed his hand on the ground, raising an earthen wall that easily blocked the ranged attacks. He wasn't worried about obstructing his vision during the battle.

The Ten Puppets of Chikamatsu moved swiftly, rushing out from both sides and above the wall, only to be met with sharp Lightning Release hand blades.

"Call out..."

Shuichi ducked to dodge a slash, and in the blink of an eye, he even had time to observe the puppet's internal mechanisms. Then, with a backhand Lightning Cutter, he cleaved the puppet in two.

Without giving the puppets behind him a chance to attack from both sides, he continued to increase his chakra output. The Lightning Cutter in his hand transformed into a longsword, and he chose the perfect moment to turn and sweep horizontally, eliminating the threat behind him once again. "Chidori Sharp Spear!"

"Click, click..."

The successive destruction of several puppets attacking Shuichi made even the experienced Chiyo feel troubled. "This Lightning Release has such destructive power. It seems we can't get close anymore. We can only try to deplete his chakra first..."

Seeing that Chiyo had placed all the puppets around him, Shuichi knew that pushing his luck any further might be dangerous.

Looking around, he found that there weren't many Konoha Ninja left nearby, so he abandoned Chiyo and rushed towards the area with more Sunagakure.

Shuichi hail of bullets with only his Body Flicker Technique and short sword. Ordinary Sunagakure were no match for him.

Many people only saw the purple-haired boy flash by, and the enemy he fought fell down immediately. The Konoha Ninjas around him were shocked by his strength, and their morale soared as a result.

"Let's all attack together and take him down..."

Several more Sunagakure rushed towards Shuichi, but he remained completely calm. As they closed in, lightning erupted, striking their opponents squarely. "Chidori Stream!"

"Wow..."

Several thin metal pieces appeared in his hand, which he flung out and all of them pierced the enemy's throat. He then calmly dodged the corpse that flew towards him with inertia.

Seeing his strength, the other Sunagakure Ninjas stopped rushing forward and instead covered each other as they ran towards Rasa's direction.

But just as they were about to retreat, a large number of Konoha reinforcements arrived on the battlefield.

"Human Boulder!"

Two enormous lumps of flesh rolled into the Sunagakure troops from the side, sending them sprawling and overturning.

"It's Choza!" Shuichi saw the ball stop beside him and transformed back into a strong, fat man.

Akimichi Choza said, "I've kept you waiting. Now it's time for the village to launch a full-scale attack."

Not only the Akimichi Clan, but also many more Konoha elites have rushed into the battlefield, and the situation on both sides has begun to reverse.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Rasa immediately ordered his subordinates to send out an emergency signal, and the Sunagakure who heard the order kept moving closer to him.

We can't wait any longer.

Although many people are still entangled with Konoha, at this moment, we cannot be concerned about a few casualties.

From the forest, Rasa's Sand Clone flew over with a thin old man with white eyebrows and a long beard. "Bunpuku, you've seen the situation. Without the Tailed Beasts ' help, the village will suffer heavy casualties."

"If a large number of elite troops die here, the Land of Wind may be invaded by enemy nations. So, have you made your decision?"

With his hands Bunpuku, Bunpuku, whose lifespan was nearing its end, knew that once he released Shukaku's power, he would be unable to retract it. Therefore, Rasa's request would actually hasten his death.

"Lord Kazekage has put it this way, what is wrong with sacrificing my life?" He showed no fear in the face of death. "I have no combat experience, so I can only release Shukaku completely and let it take control."

"Can we get it to attack Konoha Ninjas on its own?" Rasa asked.

"This is my last request as a friend, Shukaku has agreed!" Bunpuku said expressionlessly. Although he loathed war and longed for people to understand each other, he also did not want to see his country decline.

On the battlefield, the Konoha Ninjas ' offensive was unstoppable. Although the retreat of some Sunagakure elites could not be stopped, most of the enemies who were entangled with them could not escape.

Just as everything was going smoothly, a loud noise came from not far away. Everyone immediately looked over and saw a huge Yellow Earth Tanuki suddenly appear.

Its body was covered with Blue Curse Mark Patterns, coupled with its slightly fierce eyes and appearance, as well as the terrifying amount of chakra that could be detected without using one's senses, making it awe-inspiring at first glance.

"Hahaha... I'm finally out!" The shrill scream was deafening. "It just so happens that those are all Konoha Ninja over there... Oh well, I can't see them very clearly anyway. Even if I agreed to Bunpuku, it's no big deal if I accidentally kill a few."

Shukaku's enormous belly bulged out, and then he slapped his hand upwards, shouting, "Wind Release: Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!"

A giant Wind Ball -like projectile hurtled towards the large group of people. Many ninjas, seeing the attack's range, despaired. "It's Tailed Beast! Everyone run!"

"Wow..."

From the air, ordinary ninjas were blown away like ants, and the areas where the Wind Style: Great Breakthrough passed were all turned into empty spaces, demonstrating just how powerful the Tailed Beasts were.

"Sunagakure actually released the One-Tail like that!" Seeing the massive casualties among Konoha Ninja in an instant, Tsunade on Kikyo Castle couldn't hold back any longer, "Summoning Jutsu!"

Katsuyu nearly the size of Tailed Beast appeared below. Although it was about the same size as the One-Tail, it did not attack. Instead, it split into countless smaller Katsuyu and attached themselves to the Konoha Ninja.

Shuichi was also surprised to see Shukaku appear on the battlefield. At this time, Orochimaru's summoned Manda had finished its antics and returned home, Jiraiya's two Toads were probably about to be summoned. They had to come up with a way to deal with Shukaku immediately.

"I want a Katsuyu too, I'm running low on chakra!" Seeing Tsunade about to give everyone some milk, he immediately ran over there.

In fact, this was planned long ago. Tsunade's current chakra reserves are simply insufficient to heal the entire army. The Hokage lineage is very familiar with her Hundred Healings Jutsu and medical skills. In the original story, protecting the entire village under Shinra Tensei required using all the chakra she had accumulated over more than ten years.

Therefore, she can only allow Katsuyu to possess some of Konoha's elite ninjas now; ordinary ninjas don't have this privilege.
