No More Pretending! (12th Update, Complete Launch Plot Concludes)

The Kushina family home, or more accurately, the ruins where the Kushina family home was located.

Shiraha stood a hundred meters away from Kushina, watching her situation.

It wasn't that he didn't want to get closer, but the Chakra surging from Kushina's body formed a terrifying airflow. Unless Shiraha used Breathing Technique to forcibly break through the airflow, it would be difficult for him to get close to Kushina.

To avoid disturbing her, Shiraha refrained from making any rash moves.

"With Mito here, Kushina will definitely be alright," Shiraha murmured softly, as if trying to comfort himself. Even though he knew that Kushina was most likely safe, he was still very anxious.

Kushina's process of mastering the Kurama' Chakra went very smoothly; it wasn't that she experienced no pressure at all, but rather that she felt absolutely no pressure.

So Kurama suggested that Kushina could try absorbing more Chakra, and even Uzumaki Mito agreed.

Therefore, Kurama accumulated a little more Chakra for Kushina.

The terrifying Chakra that erupted in that instant directly forced Shiraha's Chakra, along with a portion of his consciousness, out of Kushina's body.

At this moment, Kushina sat cross-legged in the open ruins, her body enveloped in crimson Chakra, with six tentacle-like tails already growing from her back, and a seventh slowly taking shape.

At this moment, the Kurama ' crimson Chakra was like an outer garment, attached to Kushina's body, and a terrifying aura filled the entire space.

No wonder the Kurama is called a calamity!

Shiraha sighed inwardly, thinking that even a slight glimpse of the Kurama 'Chakra could kill a whole group of people.

Although the aura emanating from Kushina and the Chakra accumulating on her body were becoming increasingly terrifying, the overall situation remained stable, and Shiraha's expression softened slightly.

"Sixth Sense" activated, enhancing perception; ninjas are already approaching in this direction within the perception range.

A short while later, four ninjas dressed in Anbu uniforms appeared in Shiraha's line of sight.

One person was in front, and the other three were slightly behind.

"Chunin Yagami Shiraha, leave this place immediately! We need to take action against the Jinchuriki!"

The Anbu of the ANBU wore a mask that was clearly different from that of ordinary Anbu. After appearing, he glanced coldly at Shiraha and then rushed towards Kushina.

Boom--!

The three Anbu, several dozen meters away, heard a whoosh. The leader of the Anbu Ninja was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing through seven or eight large trees before landing. Blood immediately seeped from under his mask, staining his entire neck crimson. His head lolled to the side and he became motionless, his fate unknown.

All of this was caused by the fist of an "ordinary" Medical Ninja.

Shiraha slowly withdrew his fist, which was enveloped in Crimson Airflow. The crimson energy lingered on his body, gradually accumulating and completely enveloping him.

In a moment of desperation, Shiraha's "Crimson Dragon Armor" burst technique, which was just one step away from completion, reached its peak.

"Yagami Shiraha! What are you doing?!"

"Are you crazy?"

"We are the Root's Anbu, how dare you?"

The three Anbu stopped in their tracks and shouted sternly.

Their team leader was Elite Jonin, yet he was sent flying by a single punch from Yagami Shiraha, a Medical Ninja. It was unbelievable, but that was the truth. Looking at the young man engulfed in flames, the three dared not make any rash moves.

Shiraha stretched out his right fist towards the three of them, then transformed it into a palm and swung it towards the ground. A stream of fire shot out, carving a trench in the ground. With a cold expression, he said, "Those who cross the line, die!"

"You—! Do you know the consequences of losing control of Jinchuriki?"

"I advise you to get out of the way immediately! Otherwise, you'll face the consequences!"

"Your actions are tantamount to Betrayal of the Village!"

The three Anbu were shocked and furious. How dare he?!

Faced with the three people's noisy chatter, Shiraha stared at them coldly, unwilling to waste words.

The three of them dared not cross the line!

Soon, a large group of ninjas arrived, led by the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"What's going on?!" Sarutobi Hiruzen saw that Kushina's body had six tails showing, but her expression was relatively calm. He slightly loosened his grip on the Death God Mask, and then noticed the Root Ninja lying there like a "sleeping baby," as well as the terrifying crimson aura surrounding Shiraha: "What are you doing?!"

"Lord Third Hokage, Yagami Shiraha has gone mad! He wants to kill the captain!" Anbu Ninja immediately ran to report.

"Shiraha, what are you doing? How is Kushina doing? Hurry up and let me in." Sarutobi Hiruzen forward and said.

Shiraha's expression hardened, and the fiery aura around him surged dramatically. "Don't come any closer!"

He doesn't have much of a chance against Sarutobi Hiruzen now, but he will never back down or let anyone disturb Kushina.

"Don't be impulsive." Seeing that Kushina's condition was relatively stable and that Shiraha had unleashed astonishing power and assumed an attack stance, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not approach her again.

"I've sent the Sealing Squad members close to Kushina so they can help her at a crucial moment."

"I said, no one is allowed to come near! Nobody!" Shiraha's attitude was firm, leaving no room for negotiation.

The people behind Sarutobi Hiruzen were also somewhat bewildered.

Minato Namikaze watched as Shiraha single-handedly shielded Kushina from everyone, and couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness. Only someone like Shiraha was worthy of Kushina.

Boom!

At this moment, Kushina, who was sitting cross-legged, unleashed her seventh tail, and the terrifying aura suddenly intensified.

Chakra felt a chill Sarutobi Hiruzen his spine and was about to take action when Kushina's crimson chakra suddenly turned into pure gold, as if she had a new skin.

The Nine-Tails Chakra, filled with an evil and violent aura, changed instantly, and the terrifying killing intent vanished as if it had never existed.

Kushina suddenly opened her eyes, her figure flashing as if she had teleported to appear in front of Shiraha. Looking at the tense crowd, she coldly said:

"What—do you intend to do to my Shiraha?"

"This is... Nine-Tails Chakra Mode?!" Sarutobi Hiruzen contracted sharply, and he instinctively gripped his Death God Mask. He quickly realized what was happening and explained, "Kushina, this is a misunderstanding!"

"Misunderstanding?!" Kushina glanced expressionlessly at the Anbu behind the Third Hokage: "I heard everything they said just now."

"They are also..." Sarutobi Hiruzen by Kushina's terrifying Chakra.

Kushina extended her right hand, and a jet-black sphere quickly formed in her palm.

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression changed drastically, and he instinctively took a half step back. "Kushina, what are you doing? Don't be impulsive!"

Kushina casually pushed her palm towards the northwest, and the black sphere vanished into thin air in an instant.

Three seconds later.

Boom--!

A deafening explosion rang out!

A massive amount of air was forced out, creating a terrifying high-pressure shock wave.

In the distance, a giant mushroom cloud rises into the sky.

The dazzling light was blinding to everyone in the room.

Rumble~

A thunderous roar echoed through the sky.

The earth trembled violently, as if an earthquake had struck.

All the ninjas present, whether it was Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Hokage, Jiraiya of the Three Ninja, or the other Jōnin, unconsciously widened their eyes, their faces showing shock.

Are all the battle scenes of the First Hokage recorded in history true?

Is this damage that can be caused by human effort?

Even ten S-Rank ultimate Ninjutsu probably couldn't achieve this level of power.

"Kushina, what have you done?!" Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice was extremely hoarse.

"Since it was Root ninja who attacked Shiraha Yu, you shouldn't have anything to do with the Lord Third Hokage, right? I just sensed Danzo's Chakra and greeted him."

Kushina said calmly.

"What did you say? You gave Danzo to him?!" Sarutobi Hiruzen in shock.

"Don't worry, Kurama said this Tailed Beast Ball won't kill Lord Danzo underground. However..."

Kushina shook her head slightly, then paused:

"If anyone dares to attack Shiraha Yu again, my Tailed Beast Ball might get a little bigger."
