"Really?"
Jiraiya's voice also softened. After all, someone who could hide from him and follow him must be a force to be reckoned with.
"Yes, as you know, my specialty is Medical Ninjutsu. To master Medical Ninjutsu, you need strong sensory abilities."
"Although the person behind me was very well hidden, to me they were as dazzling as a beacon in the darkness."
Jiraiya complete trust in Tsunade's senses. After all, this had been proven on the battlefield.
"So his target is Naruto too?"
Jiraiya watched Naruto intently teaching Boruto Ninjutsu on the field and thought to himself.
Why did you become his target? What happened?
This question had been weighing on Jiraiya's mind, and he wouldn't feel at ease about Naruto until he got an answer.
"Um."
Tsunade nodded. The mysterious figure behind her had remained far behind ever since she discovered him—not too far, but close enough to provide support at any moment. This puzzled Tsunade greatly. What was his motive?
Should we find him and expose him?
Jiraiya asked, "The answer to this question is simple. As long as we find out who's behind us after the fight, all the problems will be solved." Jiraiya was confident that if he and Tsunade joined forces, the mysterious person behind them would be no match for them.
"No, we can't do that. The people behind us aren't hostile."
"He might be with Boruto. And Boruto was put in Naruto's care by Karot, so Karot must be playing some role in this."
Upon hearing Tsunade's words, Jiraiya knew in his heart that Karot must know about this. Moreover, Jiraiya's sixth sense indicated that Orochimaru also knew; these two old men must have some unspeakable secret.
Just as Jiraiya was still struggling with his decision, a hole suddenly appeared in the sky above them. This sight greatly surprised everyone present, except for Boruto and Sasuke, who were hiding in the shadows.
A person emerged from the cave. He had pale skin and long, grayish-white hair, wore white clothes, and had a broken horn. He carried a red, glowing fish basket on his back and held Chakra rod. He floated in mid-air, looking down at the people on the ground.
"It's like finding a needle in a haystack! You're right here, saving me the trouble of searching for you."
Otsutsuki Urashiki now only has eyes for Naruto; he automatically filters out everyone else.
Who is this person?
Everyone present had the same question. The aura emanating from him, along with his unique appearance, told them that the person before them was no ordinary person, and that he was an enemy, not a friend.
Naruto felt extremely uncomfortable being stared at. The disdainful look and arrogant expression in this person's eyes annoyed him. Naruto thought, and then asked...
Who are you?
Naruto's Nine-Tails, upon seeing the newcomer, began to awaken long-forgotten memories. This person before him resembled the Sage of Six Paths! He could sense the newcomer's malice towards Naruto. Just as he was about to warn Naruto to be careful, Naruto spoke first.
"The one who will take your life."
After saying that, Urashiki immediately started swinging his fishing rod, trying to tie Naruto up.
"Careful."
Boruto saw Urashiki make a move and immediately jumped over to tackle Naruto.
Urashiki's fishing hook grazed past him and slammed into the ground with a loud thud, leaving a large hole. The fact that such a small fishing hook could cause such great damage astonished everyone present, who all glared angrily at Urashiki.
"It's you, you little brat."
Urashiki only noticed Boruto at this point, all because he made it take him more effort to capture the Nine-Tails.
Just as Urashiki was about to attack again, he heard a whooshing sound behind him. Urashiki reacted very quickly, sweeping his fishing rod backward. "Clang!" The fishing rod collided with the samurai sword, making a crisp sound.
However, Urashiki was clearly stronger, and with a powerful thrust, Sasuke was sent flying. This whole sequence of events happened very quickly. But in the Ninja World, where battles were constant, this was enough for everyone to prepare for combat.
Itachi Sasuke behind him, while Jiraiya and Tsunade glared angrily at Urashiki.
"Now that everyone's here, after I kill you two, the 'Plow' will return to my hands."
Urashiki completely disregarded the crowd; to him, they were merely nourishment for the Divine Tree. He didn't care about them.
"Everyone be careful, he can absorb other people's Ninjutsu."
Sasuke said to Jiraiya and the others, "After all, he is no match for Urashiki. Only by relying on everyone's strength can we have a chance of winning."
After listening to Sasuke's words, Tsunade took the initiative to act, since her monstrous strength was not Ninjutsu.
"Give me your life, you white-haired brat!"
Tsunade attacked Naruto without a word, and how could Tsunade swallow this insult? She considered Kushina her little sister; how could she face Kushina if Naruto were Naruto before her eyes?
Although Tsunade's punch was filled with resentment, "Bang!" Urashiki arrogantly caught Tsunade's attack with his palm.
Feeling the force in his hand, Urashiki had no time to react before he was sent flying, crashing into a series of trees before finally coming to a stop.
"You've successfully angered me, woman."
When had Urashiki ever suffered such humiliation? He was actually treated like an ant and sent flying by a woman. This made Urashiki want to tear Tsunade to pieces.
Urashiki appeared in front of Tsunade in a flash, kicking straight at Tsunade body. Tsunade, not to be outdone, used her monstrous strength to raise her leg to parry. "Thump, thump, thump!" After several exchanges, neither had gained the upper hand, which made Urashiki's opinion of Tsunade rise.
It's important to know that Urashiki's body has been tempered by the secret techniques of the Otsutsuki clan; an ordinary person simply couldn't fight him for so long.
Tsunade was increasingly astonished. After defeating the monstrous strength, she was unparalleled in the Ninja World, and very few could directly confront her. Yet, the man before her seemed to be even stronger than her, which was something the already proud and arrogant Tsunade could hardly accept.
Urashiki, seeing that he hadn't managed to subdue Tsunade, threw a punch quickly. Tsunade blocked it with her hands clasped together. Urashiki had been waiting for this opportunity, and his Chakra fishing rod quickly extended, seemingly about to entangle Tsunade. However, Tsunade missed her chance to dodge because her eyesight was blocked by her clasped hands.
