That wild boar was huge, but it moved with remarkable agility. It even seemed to have predicted the trajectories of his thrown shuriken and dodged all three attacks.
Uchiha Yoichi's mouth twitched. He was secretly glad he hadn't brought any teammates. If a wild boar dodged a Chunin's shuriken, it would definitely become a laughingstock.
"Let's finish this mission quickly. Then I still have another one to do."
This thought flashed through Uchiha Yoichi's mind. In the next moment, faint lightning flickered across his body. He used the Lightning Release Chakra Mode he had just begun mastering, greatly accelerating his reactions, Chakra flow, and speed.
With a Body Flicker, Uchiha Yoichi appeared directly ten meters in front of the wild boar.
In the next moment, he rapidly formed hand seals, and Chakra gathered in his throat.
"Fire Style: Great Fireball!"
A scorching fireball several meters across shot toward the wild boar. Its tremendous power even scorched the ground.
An ordinary wild boar definitely would not have been able to dodge this Fire Release Ninjutsu. But this beast was actually Tsunade, one of the Sannin. Having experienced countless battles, what Ninjutsu had she never seen?
She drew upon the small amount of Chakra remaining in her body and concentrated it in her four limbs. Her speed instantly increased several times, allowing her to dodge the Great Fireball.
Only her tail was grazed by the scorching fireball, causing Tsunade to feel the pain herself and roll across the ground.
"Hrrr, hrrr, hrrr, hrrr!!!"
Damn Uchiha brat! I'm one of Konoha's Sannin! We're from the same village!
Although Tsunade desperately wanted to explain, she could not say a single word in her current state. Moreover, this beast's body had very little Chakra left. After two more bursts, she might completely run out.
She could not escape. The best solution was to make the Uchiha brat in front of her realize her identity, but that was Tsunade's greatest problem.
If she had enough time, she might be able to use her forelegs to barely write on the ground. But under the current circumstances, she clearly would not be given enough time.
"Where did this wild boar come from? It even knows how to gather Chakra in its limbs? Has a wild boar cultivated intelligence and turned into a Ninja Beast?"
Uchiha Yoichi looked surprised. The Sharingan could see Chakra flow, so he clearly saw the wild boar gathering all its Chakra in its limbs. Even among Ninjas, that counted as an advanced technique—one not taught at the Ninja Academy. And now a wild boar from the Forest of Death had learned it?
Lightning flashed, and his figure shot toward the wild boar like a streak of electricity.
While using the Body Flicker, Uchiha Yoichi drew his Kunai and suddenly slashed it toward the wild boar's neck.
Splurt!
At the critical moment, the wild boar Tsunade had transformed into abruptly lowered its head. Uchiha Yoichi's Kunai failed to cut its neck and merely sliced off a piece of its ear.
This is the third time. What is this wild boar's background? Does it have superpowers too?
Uchiha Yoichi felt angry. If he could not even deal with a wild boar, how could he talk about surviving the Third Shinobi World War?
"Damn it, a wild boar thinks it can push me around?"
The lightning grew even more intense. Uchiha Yoichi raised the Lightning Release Chakra Mode to the limit his body could withstand, and dazzling Lightning Armor instantly wrapped around him.
In the next moment, Uchiha Yoichi's figure suddenly vanished. He appeared beside the wild boar in an instant and kicked out viciously, sending its huge body flying.
"Awoooo, awoooo, awoooo, awoooo, awoooo!!!"
It hurts so much! Damn Uchiha! Just wait until I escape, and I'll definitely—
Tsunade was still grunting words humans could not understand when she suddenly sensed a fatal threat. However, the wild boar's body contained too little Chakra to support her using her abilities repeatedly.
Even so, she struggled frantically, kicking all four limbs as she tried to escape Uchiha Yoichi's pursuit. But it was clearly impossible. Uchiha Yoichi was now far faster and stronger than before, and Tsunade, trapped in the body of a wild boar, could not get away.
But then, a minor accident suddenly occurred.
As Tsunade kicked wildly, the dust she stirred up made Uchiha Yoichi's nose itch. He immediately could not help sneezing.
That sneeze caused Tsunade's consciousness to instantly leave the wild boar's body and return to her own.
After Uchiha Yoichi finished sneezing, he continued the killing motion that had been certain to succeed. Chakra coated his Kunai, and he directly sliced off most of the wild boar's head.
Soon, the hill-sized wild boar stopped moving, and a pool of blood spread across the ground.
"I failed three times in a row. Luckily, no one saw."
Uchiha Yoichi glanced at the wild boar on the ground. He still felt that something about it was strange, but it was dead now, and he could not be bothered to study the corpse.
After memorizing the location, Uchiha Yoichi hurried toward the client's village. Once they came to confirm that the wild boar was dead, the mission would be complete.
"Stop! I'm Tsunade from the same village!!!!"
With her beautiful eyes tightly shut, Tsunade shouted loudly while kicking wildly with both hands and feet. Before long, she had kicked the bed into disarray.
However, she quickly realized what had happened.
She opened her beautiful eyes and looked around. Some confusion showed in them as she murmured, "I'm back?"
Then her beautiful eyes filled with irrepressible fury. "Which bastard used a Ninjutsu on me? You're dead!"
She had just turned into a wild boar, been hunted by a young member of the Uchiha Clan, and then returned to normal just as she was about to die?
Was this an Illusion Technique?
Tsunade quickly shook her head and covered her stomach. She even instinctively felt pain there, after all, she had taken such a heavy kick.
The sensation just now had been incredibly clear. If it had been an Illusion Technique, then the other party's Illusion Technique was probably the strongest in the Ninja World.
Besides, she remembered sleeping at home. Why would anyone use such an Illusion Technique on her?
Most importantly, the sensation had been too real—so real that Tsunade had thought everything that happened had truly occurred.
"No, I have to investigate this matter thoroughly. If I find out who did it, whoever you are, you're dead!"
Deep fury surfaced in Tsunade's beautiful eyes. As one of the Sannin, she had been toyed with like this, transformed into a beast, and hunted by someone? It was an utter humiliation!
However, Tsunade then frowned and pondered. The Uchiha youth who had just hunted her—no, the one who had hunted the wild boar—seemed to have used the Cloud Ninja's Lightning Release Chakra Mode.
Moreover, while evading the pursuit, she seemed to have heard that Uchiha youth speak several times. It had not sounded like ordinary speech. It had seemed to echo directly in her mind, much like the effect of the Yamanaka Clan's Mind Body Switch Technique.
And it had sounded like the Uchiha youth's inner muttering—something about superpowers and the like.
"I'll investigate this one thing at a time. I'll start with the Forest of Death!"
After thinking for a while, Tsunade still had no leads. Furious, she put on her clothes, left home, and began hurrying with the Body Flicker Technique.
However, halfway there, she turned toward the Hokage Building. She did not go inside, but she still called out a squad of Anbu.
As one of the Sannin, she had the authority to mobilize the Anbu and issue emergency missions.
"Go to the Forest of Death immediately. Gather information about a wild boar that may have broken through the protective fence. After finding the breach in the protective fence, continue searching outward. Do not miss a single piece of intelligence related to that wild boar!"
"Yes, Lady Tsunade!"
Although they did not know why Lady Tsunade wanted them to search for a wild boar, the Anbu would carry out any order they received. Besides, the person before them was a disciple of the Third Hokage and one of Konoha's Sannin.
