Gyuki, Two Paths, Choose One

"Vomit!!"

Kai vomited violently.

However, there was nothing in his stomach.

Kurenai Yuhi couldn't help but complain.

"You seem to be very athletic, and you often do some unconventional Taijutsu training. Why are you so dizzy?"

"I... I... I don't know either!"

Kai plopped down on the snow, questioning the meaning of life.

but.

Standing on the ground, he finally felt alive again!

Kyohiko returned, bringing out a huge box.

"What else could it be? It must be that your training isn't up to par!"

"Well..."

Kai turned around, narrowed his eyes, and then paused for a few seconds.

Kakashi Hatake?

What are you doing here?

"You shouldn't worry about it. Taking care of yourself is the most important thing. You still have to go back!"

Kurenai Yuhi couldn't help but stab him.

The thought of going back and suffering again made Might Guy's face turn deathly pale, and he immediately forgot to pay attention to why "Kakashi" was there.

His voice trembled. "Do we really have to take a boat? Can't we just run back?"

Run back?

Kurenai Yuhi paused for a moment, then said, "Your idea is quite creative, but putting aside the fatigue of running back, if we pass through the Land of Earth, you'll be labeled an invader, and if we take a longer route..."

"You basically slept the whole way, so it wasn't that painful. Just think of it as taking a nap, and you'll be fine after vomiting for a while when you wake up."

"Kyohiko said coldly."

Kai paused for a few seconds, then said, "Kakashi, you've become the same as before!"

"Hehe."

Kyohiko carried the box and walked ahead, saying, "Let's go, you idiot!"

Kai quickly followed.

A message suddenly came back from Konoha's Anbu.

Kakashi looked at the intelligence report in his hand and fell into deep thought for a long time.

Kakashi Hatake's bounty has increased again!

Secondly.

The Kumogakure has raised Kakashi Hatake's rating by another level.

what happened?

He searched through the intelligence files, then fell into deep thought.

Finally, his gaze settled on Kyohiko's portrait.

Without a doubt.

Among those who left Konoha, there was only one person who had both the ability and the reason to imitate him and "help" him increase his status.

Kyohiko Yoshimine.

"I'm truly impressed!"

Kakashi stared at the pile of documents on the table, his teeth clenched in fury.

He's been working like a dog here, and now he has to take the blame for Kyohiko's mistakes. It's truly a miserable situation.

I was just thinking about it.

"Captain, this is frontline intelligence sent by the Lord Hokage."

"Lord Hokage?"

Kakashi paused for a moment, then his expression suddenly turned serious. "Give it to me now!"

This must be Kyohiko's.

However, he soon stopped worrying so much.

If it were important intelligence, Tsunade would definitely send it over immediately. The current situation is enough to show that Kyohiko's side does not need support.

This intelligence report is mostly in the form of a briefing.

He took it and glanced at it, then secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as I expected!

They encountered a ship from the Kumogakure and even used Wood Clone as cover to capture the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.

It was in this battle that "he" rose to fame.

"Kyohiko Yoshimine, thank you so much!"

Kakashi angrily criticized the document, feeling a strong sense of crisis.

Heaven knows how well Kyohiko performed under his identity; he must improve his strength as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too embarrassing to go out!

"The Land of Snow is so beautiful!"

Looking at the snow-covered ground, Kurenai Yuhi couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

She had never seen a country so covered in snow, but she quickly suppressed her joy.

After saying that, Koi Shun's expression was clearly somewhat subtle.

She realized it immediately.

For them, who had never experienced such a world before, this icy and snowy landscape was indeed very interesting.

But.

However, this may not be a good thing for the people of the Land of Snow.

She apologized immediately.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Koi..."

"It's nothing. Every tourist from abroad is amazed by the beauty of this country; that's only natural. But for us, this country has many flaws."

At this point, Koi Shun couldn't help but laugh and say, "I really envy your Land of Fire. The Land of Fire has the best land and climate, unlike our Land of Snow..."

He looked around and sighed.

"Our greatest wish is to have normal seasons like you, but in reality, it's winter for most of the time in the Land of Snow."

Then, Nara Shikaku over.

"Alright, we'll finish processing the goods here and come back to pick them up later. Let's all travel light."

Thank you for waiting, Mr. Xiaojing.

Shikaku looked at Koi Shun and nodded slightly in thanks.

Koi Shun gently shook his head.

"It's nothing, it's what we should do. But as you've seen, the situation here might not be very good for you."

"We're ninjas, a little cold is nothing to us, let's go."

Amidst the heavy snowfall, a figure carrying a box walks through the snow.

Cursing and swearing came from the box behind me.

"Put me down! You idiot! You moron!"

"Speak again, and I'll seal your mouth and nose shut too. Anyway, with the life Jinchuriki, even if you seal your nose and mouth, you won't die anytime soon."

Kyohiko responded.

His tone was indifferent and calm, but to Killer B it sounded threatening.

This guy looks like Kakashi Hatake, but he absolutely doesn't believe that the other person is the son of the White Fang of Konoha.

Kakashi is very strong.

Given Kakashi Hatake's talent, he was indeed considered a genius for the other's age, but he wasn't capable of making the other feel that much of a threat.

certainly.

Most importantly.

Kakashi Hatake would never use such a strange escape technique.

"This should be a Kekkei Genkai Ninjutsu derived from Wood Release, it couldn't possibly be Kakashi Hatake."

Wood Release.

Back then, only the First Hokage mastered it.

In Konoha today, it's said that there's another person besides Kyohiko who has mastered Wood Release Ninjutsu, but their strength and skill level are not on the same level as Kyohiko's.

Who else but Kyohiko Yoshimine could be confident in controlling the Eight-Tails?

Killer B's spiritual form sat cross-legged.

He couldn't figure it out.

What is this guy doing in the Land of Snow?

Could it be that they deliberately set a trap to catch me?

Or is it...?

Does he have a bigger scheme?

Killer B was pondering, he suddenly heard a faint sound coming from outside.

"Tell me, if your older brother or the Third Raikage came here again, in a country like this, would I have any chance of capturing him?"

Capture the Raikage?

How could that be!

Killer B chuckled, but then gradually fell silent.

In the past, he would have thought the Third Raikage was invincible, and that even the Twin Stars of Konoha couldn't defeat him, let alone kill him.

But in reality...

The fact that the Third Raikage couldn't save A in the previous battle shows that the combined power of Kyohiko and Minato Namikaze could pose a fatal threat to the Third Raikage.

Even the Strongest Shield is not omnipotent.

With the magic of Flying Thunder God.

If Kyohiko is here, Minato Namikaze might still be here.

Killer B's limited intelligence had been fully utilized, but all he could think of was that Konoha had set a trap here to kill the Third Raikage...

Sudden.

The mental space trembled, and then Killer B Awakening to see a blizzard raging everywhere.

What's going on?

Killer B was momentarily stunned, but he reacted extremely quickly, immediately attempting to use his Chakra—

The next second, it was as if a water pump was rapidly draining his Chakra from his body.

Awakening, he saw a giant tree growing out of his body, and it was these trees that were drawing Chakra from his body.

"Hold on!

The Gyuki used his Chakra to stabilize his body, temporarily slowing down the rate at which his Chakra was being extracted.

However.

The next second, the Chakra of the Gyuki was quickly diverted.

moment.

The Gyuki realized...

Their target is themselves!

However.

By then, it was too late for it to get away.

Killer B's Chakra was maintained by Wood Release, which simultaneously drew Chakra from Wood Release Tailed Beast and channeled it to the octopus tail wrapped in trees, guided by Kyohiko.

A new Eight-Tails is forming.

"Compare..."

The consciousness of the Eight-Tails is gradually weakening.

Because Killer B's body was increasingly drained of the Tailed Beast Chakra by his Wood Release abilities, a new Eight-Tails, Gyuki, was being conceived within the tree.

Kyohiko was already very familiar with this operation.

On the trees, flower buds bloom, and tiny Gyuki emerge.

It looked upwards, and remained silent for a moment.

This state...

Ripe!

It looks so familiar!

At this moment, the trees withered and dissolved rapidly in a short period of time, leaving only the many shackles on Killer B's body.

"What you up to?"

"Kumogakure has launched several attacks against Konoha. Let's leave aside the events from the Second Hokage's time. First, they tried to steal the Nine-Tails, and then they tried to lure away Danzo missing-nin Danzo Konoha."

Kyohiko lowered his head. "Do you think I'd let them off so easily?"

"..."

The Gyuki had nothing to say.

From its perspective, many of the things done by the Kumogakure were indeed unethical. The only reason it was willing to help the Kumogakure was because it had a good relationship with Killer B.

so.

It had no intention of helping to whitewash the events of Kumogakure stealing the Nine-Tails and colluding Danzo.

From Konoha's perspective, they did the right thing!

"So, what are you going to do with Killer B?"

"It should fetch a good price."

Even without his status as the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, Killer B is still an extremely powerful elite Jonin, and with some training, reaching Kage Level would be a piece of cake.

Moreover, he had left one-fifth of the Tailed Beast Chakra for the other party.

Kyohiko wasn't worried that Kumogakure wouldn't want him.

The Gyuki couldn't help but look up at the boy in front of him.

He remembered someone from back then.

Madara Uchiha!

The boy before me possesses traits similar to those of Madara Uchiha in some respects.

What exactly do you want to do?

"That's not your concern. Now, Gyuki, you have two choices. One is to come with me. After arriving in Konoha, you will gain a certain degree of freedom. The other... I will send you to an absolutely safe place, where you will face imprisonment."

It's unrealistic for the Flying Thunder God Gyuki back from such a long distance.

but.

Kyohiko also has Mount Myoboku.

With his abilities, he could easily reseal the current Gyuki within Amber Amber stone, using it as a vessel to send the Toad to Mount Myoboku for safekeeping.

After a few seconds of silence, the Gyuki said, "I choose the first option."

Since there's no way to resist...

Then we can only choose the more advantageous direction.

It sighed silently.

If Kyohiko's abilities weren't so effective against Tailed Beast, it wouldn't be so docile and obedient.

"Very good, the cooperation is achieved. Killer B will be sent back."

Kyohiko Hand Seals.

Transporting Killer B from the Land of Snow to Konoha would require an enormous amount of Chakra, but for him...

It's just a matter of lifting the Yin Seal!

During his time in the Anbu, Kyohiko wasn't idle even when he wasn't on missions; he had already stored six Chakra sealing pools within his body, each containing a considerable amount of Chakra.

Two are freed up, enough for Flying Thunder God teleportation!

Chakra release.

Then...

Two Wood Clone appeared beside Kyohiko, and then the main body and the Wood Clone quickly constructed a spatial passage together.

"What you up to?"

Killer B had just recovered from the dizziness of having a large amount of Chakra drained in a short time when he sensed Kyohiko's aura rapidly increasing. When the three Kyohiko Yoshimine appeared...

He was utterly shocked.

Three times the Chakra!

Does this guy have no limit to his Chakra?

The clone possesses a similar amount of Chakra as the original body, with almost no reduction...

Killer B was still pondering, the world suddenly spun around him.

When he Awakening.

All around him, Monkey barked wildly, Ape pounded their chests, and snakes crawled all over him.

Killer B swallowed hard.

What place is this?

The animal kingdom?

He looked around and saw a figure getting closer and closer.

This face...

Orochimaru!

"Heh, Killer B from Kumogakure? The things Kyohiko sends are getting more and more high-class."

Orochimaru licked his lips. "Such a good experimental subject, how should I thank him?"

Killer B immediately drew the blade from his waist.

The next moment.

Bang!

A Ape ran up behind him and knocked him unconscious.

Killer B, who didn't have much Chakra left, was immediately knocked unconscious.

"Well done, but the noise was too loud. You can be more discreet next time."

Orochimaru glanced at it, then pressed a button on the side.

A moment later, the Anbu agents arrived.

"Lord Orochimaru, again..."

"It wasn't an experimental accident. Send this person to prison for further investigation, and also send a report to Tsunade and Kakashi so they are both informed."

"Yes!"

Gekko Shusaku glanced at it and was secretly surprised.

Killer B!

The Jinchuriki of the Tailed Beasts in Kumogakure!

How could he...?

Kyohiko!

He immediately thought of Kyohiko, who had left the village.

No one else possesses such an ability except him.

"The captain is really strong! He went out for a short trip and brought back a Jinchuriki of a Tailed Beast! But, this is a Jinchuriki from Kumogakure. Won't this cause a war?"

What are you afraid of?

Gekko Shusaku sneered, "Didn't the Kumogakure want to capture Kushina back then? We simply did what they couldn't. As for what you're talking about, the Lord Hokage will handle that!"

After saying that, he waved his hand.

Hand them over to the Sealing Team!

Tsunade and Kakashi received two separate messages at the same time.

One of them was a message sent by Killer B to Konoha.

The second proposal came from Kumogakure, who hoped to negotiate a deal with Konoha regarding Killer B.

"Old Man, what do you think? I told you, Kyohiko can do it!"

Tsunade slammed the two scrolls on the table, more assertive than ever before.
