He Can Escape, but Can You?

Just as Naruto broke free from Amaterasu, the Purple Rasengan in his hand began to condense once more.

They prepared to launch a second attack on Itachi Uchiha.

Seeing Naruto's determination to protect Uchiha Sasuke, Itachi Uchiha lost all will to fight.

Just as he was thinking about what excuse to use to leave the scene, a woman wearing Hokage Robe and with beige twin Braid appeared.

"Lord Hokage!"

Upon seeing the newcomer, the surrounding Ninja felt much more at ease.

Hearing the calls from those around them, Might Guy and Naruto Uzumaki, who were fighting Kisame Hoshigaki, both turned around and looked back.

"Naruto, step back. The opponent before you is beyond your capabilities."

Tsunade, puffing out her proud chest, gave an order to Naruto was about to attack.

However, under the influence of the Nine-Tails Chakra, Naruto Uzumaki was filled with nothing but fighting spirit and hatred, and had no intention of backing down.

He grinned and said, "Shut up, Granny Tsunade! Didn't you see what he did to Sasuke?"

Sasuke Uchidate, lying in the pit, trembled slightly.

Something within him seemed to have been touched.

Tsunade frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "Yamato."

Whoosh!

As she finished speaking, a figure appeared behind Naruto.

"Wood Release: Silent Binding Technique"

Before Naruto could react, the figure behind Naruto conjured several brown tree branches from its palm, which then spread towards Naruto's body.

In an instant, Naruto was firmly bound.

"Who are you..."

As Naruto opened his mouth in a fit of rage to question them, a tree branch sealed Naruto mouth Sealing.

Not only was his body immobilized, but he also couldn't use his strongest Talk no Jutsu.

The Ninja known as Yamato then used his Wood Release technique to pull himself away from Itachi Uchiha in an instant.

The speed was incredibly fast, as fluid as flowing water.

However, all of his actions were clearly observed and captured by Itachi Uchiha.

At this moment, his eyes had activated the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Yamato's speed was simply too fast for his Sharingan to detect.

He simply pretended that he hadn't had time to stop Yamato's rescue of Naruto.

Naruto Uzumaki, who was bound by Yamato's wooden shield, quickly lost the Nine-Tails Chakra.

The Nine-Tails inside Naruto felt weak and drowsy.

"Damn it, this feeling... is it that of a descendant of Hashirama Senju...?"

Before she could finish speaking, the Nine-Tails ' eyes closed, and it fell back into a deep sleep.

Without the Nine-Tails Chakra boost, his alluring body suddenly felt weak.

The abrupt halt, the complete cessation of his actions, left him feeling as if his body had been suddenly emptied out.

"Leave the rest to me, Fifth Hokage."

Tsunade ripped off her Hokage Robe.

Itachi Uchiha's expression subtly changed.

That's perfect, I was just looking for an excuse to leave the battlefield.

Now that Tsunade had said that, he had come up with a good idea.

Tsunade is one of the three legendary figures, and now she is the Hokage of Konoha.

So it's perfectly reasonable that Itachi Uchiha couldn't win, right?

"Konoha Great Whirlwind!"

"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

"Morning Peacock!"

"Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!"

Just as Tsunade was about to make her move, she noticed passionate sounds coming from Might Guy's direction in the distance.

This made her glance sideways.

Tsunade:??

She saw Kakashi standing next to her.

"Kakashi, what are you doing? Why are you watching Might Guy fight alone against the other side?"

Kakashi replied, "Reporting to the Lord Hokage, it was Might Guy who said he wanted to have a one-on-one fight with this small-eyed guy."

Tsunade's face immediately darkened. "A one-on-one fight? What one-on-one fight?"

"They're intruders, let's gang up on them!" She then turned to Yamato: "Yamato, you join in."

"Yes!"

Yamato glanced at Kakashi, then charged straight towards Might Guy and Kisame Hoshigaki were locked in a fierce battle in the distance.

Seeing Yamato forward, Kakashi gave him a deadpan look and reluctantly followed.

"It's not that I'm unwilling to help, but rather that I believe in Might Guy's abilities."

"Don't explain, do you think I don't know what kind of person you are, Kakashi?"

Yamato retorted sarcastically.

"Heh heh, getting ready for a group fight? I'm not playing with you anymore."

Kisame Hoshigaki chuckled and quickly Hand Seals.

"Water Release: Water Shark Bullet Technique!"

A large, light blue shark charged towards Might Guy and his two companions.

"Morning Peacock!"

With a ferocious expression, Might Guy unleashed a rapid barrage of punches, the speed of which created bursts of fire in the air as he slammed them towards the oncoming great shark.

"Bang!"

The two collided, sending up a large cloud of water vapor.

As the steam rose, Kisame Hoshigaki Body Flicker Technique returned to Itachi Uchiha's side.

"Mr. Itachi, this operation is much worse than the last one."

Itachi Uchiha said calmly, "Prepare to retreat."

Kisame Hoshigaki hesitated for a moment. "Mr. Itachi, the task the leader assigned us hasn't been completed yet..."

Although the leader's mission was not completed, his mission was.

Itachi Uchiha said calmly, "Then go and kill the Hokage on the other side."

Kisame Hoshigaki paused for a moment.

"I?"

I don't think I can beat her, so I'll have to leave her to you.

"Ahem, Mr. Itachi, you're joking. If you think he's no match for me, how could I possibly defeat him?"

Kisame Hoshigaki coughed lightly to cover his embarrassment.

Itachi Uchiha's expression remained calm. "Then prepare to retreat."

This time, after he finished speaking, Kisame Hoshigaki didn't say anything more.

"Do you think Konoha is a place you can come and go as you please?"

Tsunade stared coldly at Itachi Uchiha.

Her Chakra erupted instantly, and the ground cracked open the moment she exerted force with her foot!

Speed and power combined!

She approached Itachi Uchiha at lightning speed, her long, slender fingers clenched tightly, and launched an attack at him.

What an amazing Chakra fluctuation!

Kisame Hoshigaki's expression changed slightly upon sensing the threat emanating from Tsunade.

Even the Samehada in Kisame's hand trembled, greedily sensing the Chakra emanating from Tsunade.

"Mr. Itachi!"

"Boom--"

Tsunade slammed down with her fist.

His brows furrowed immediately.

She felt no sensation of the bombardment hitting a solid object.

Wow--Wow--

Just then, she heard several mournful cries of Crow.

A large flock of black Crow scattered in all directions.

In the blink of an eye, the flock of black Crow vanished from the sky.

"As expected of Mr. Itachi, his use of the Clone Jutsu to escape the battlefield is so exquisite."

Kisame Hoshigaki couldn't help but marvel.

The essence of the Clone Jutsu is to use a medium to act as a clone. The Crow that Shisui left for Itachi Uchiha was always used by Itachi as the medium for his Clone Jutsu.

Tsunade, having missed her Tsunade, turned to Kisame Hoshigaki with a grim expression.

"If he gets away, you won't get away either!"

"I swear on the Hokage's name, if you escape today, I'll directly select the Sixth Hokage!"
