The smell of blood was as strong as a mist that could not be dissolved.
The world of Tsunade was dyed red. The ferocious blood hole in the chest of his younger brother Nawaki, and the bloody foam coughed up by his lover, were all overlapped with the wounds that kept opening on the young man in front of him. Reality and nightmares intertwined, time lost its meaning, and only an endless feeling of falling remained.
Her disability, in the eyes of Kabuto Yakushi, is a perfect signal that the plan is progressing smoothly.
"What a perfect expression."
He is very satisfied with the state of Tsunade. The legendary princess Sannin, Konoha has been completely locked by the shadow of the past and is no longer a threat. As for Naruto Uzumaki, it's just the end of the battle. Shadow Clone The mental fatigue from overuse, coupled with the blood loss at this moment, in the view of this top medical ninja, the opponent's physical condition has already fallen below the warning line.
"What a pity, Naruto-kun." Kabuto Yakushi's glasses lenses reflected cold light, "Your performance is wonderful, but it ends here."
His steps slipped, and his figure was as close as a ghost. With his right hands pointing together like a knife, the blue Chakra Scalpel cut into the tendon of Naruto's left leg with incomparable precision. What he wanted was not to kill, but to cripple the opponent's mobility and turn this disobedient cub into a piece of fish on the chopping board.
Naruto is calculating the amount of blood loss in the body, and calculating the threshold at which Tsunade's psychological defense will completely collapse. All of this is under his control, like a precise physical conditioning, each course of treatment requires precise dosage.
Chakra Blade The front struck, and he turned sideways again with a seemingly thrilling movement.
"Tsk-"
The sharp chakra still cut open his thigh, and a huge wound suddenly opened, muscle fibers and blood vessels were broken, and warm blood spurted out without any hindrance, quickly dyeing the ground under his feet a dark red.
Feeling weak in his body like a tide, Naruto staggered and fell to one knee. He did not look at his own wounds, nor at Kabuto Yakushi who was pressing closer. Instead, he still raised his head and stabbed straight at the woman who was still shaking in the nightmare.
There was no trace of pain in his voice, only an almost cruel calmness.
"Did you see it? Tsunade."
"This is the reality you have been escaping from. Your weakness is killing the companions in front of you."
These words, like a thunder, suddenly split open the chaotic spiritual world of Tsunade.
She trembled suddenly, and her dilated pupils finally regained some focus, and saw the young man kneeling on one knee, covered in blood. His golden hair was stuck to his forehead with sweat and blood, his face was pale, and the wounds on his thighs were so hideous that people dared not look directly at him.
But in those eyes... those blue eyes, there was no cry for help, no fear, or even anger.
There are only cold, unquestionable orders.
He wants her to stand up and fight.
Fear and anger, these two extreme emotions collided crazily in Tsunade's chest. Why? Why can this kid face death so calmly? Why does he have to use his own life to force himself to face all this?
Kabuto Yakushi noticed the violent fluctuations in Tsunade's emotions, which were signs of a volcano about to erupt from the abyss of despair. He could not wait any longer.
"It seems that you still don't want to show me your treasure, Naruto." Kabuto Yakushi decided to make a quick decision. He condensed high-density chakra in his hands at the same time, and the two handles of Chakra Scalpel were formed that were more solid and more deadly than before.
"Then farewell forever."
He rushed out quickly and pierced Naruto's heart with both knives.
"No!"
Shizune let out a shrill scream and tried desperately to rush forward, but was held back by Shadow Clone who had been arranged by Kabuto Yakushi in advance. He could only watch helplessly as the two faint blue death lights pierced Naruto's defenseless chest.
Naruto looked at the approaching blade and completed the final assessment calmly.
The dose of shock therapy has reached the upper limit.
Just when the tip of the knife was about to touch the skin, and one could even feel the sting caused by the sharp energy, an extremely suppressed roar erupted from the depths of Tsunade's throat.
"Ahhhhhh--!"
Tsunade took a step forward suddenly, his clenched fist burst out with terrifying power, and punched the ground hard!
"Boom--!"
The earth cracked, and a huge shock wave spread suddenly with her as the center!
Kabuto Yakushi, who was the first to bear the brunt, was shaken by the sudden force. His forward momentum was instantly interrupted, and the attack aimed at the heart also suffered a fatal deviation.
"Pfft!"
Chakra Scalpel failed to penetrate the heart, but penetrated Naruto's left shoulder, pinning him in place.
Naruto felt the severe pain coming from his shoulder, but a happy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He looked at Tsunade, who looked stunned, and gave the final judgment in his heart.
The psychological trauma is initially repaired, the will to fight is activated, and the treatment is effective.
He slowly stood up straight, holding the scalpel that penetrated his shoulder. This action made Kabuto Yakushi's scalp numb. A normal person would have lost his fighting ability long ago after suffering such a penetrating injury.
"The farce ends here."
Naruto declared calmly.
The moment he finished speaking, an ominous scarlet chakra suddenly overflowed from his body! That chakra was like boiling magma, forming bubbles that were constantly growing and dying on his body surface.
Kabuto Yakushi and Tsunade widened their eyes at the same time.
They saw that the deep wounds on Naruto's shoulders and thighs, wrapped in scarlet chakra, were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye! Muscle tissue, blood vessels, nerves... everything was regenerating rapidly, and the rolled flesh was quickly smoothed. In just two or three seconds, those hideous wounds disappeared without a trace, leaving not even a scar.
Tsunade was horrified to discover that the situation had been under the control of this young man from beginning to end. The so-called weakness and the so-called near death were all staged for her!
The scarlet chakra did not stop there, but surged instantly, covering Naruto's whole body, condensing into three violent energy tails, swinging wantonly behind him. A ferocious coat made of pure energy was draped on his body.
Naruto raised his left hand, which was back to normal, and his five fingers were like iron pliers, tightly holding Kabuto Yakushi's hand that was still inserted into his shoulder.
Kabuto Yakushi's face changed drastically, and he wanted to pull his hand away, but found that the opponent's strength was beyond imagination, and his wrist seemed to be welded to death, unable to move.
An unprecedented fear seized his heart.
Then, he saw Naruto raise his right hand.
The blue chakra gathered in the palm of Naruto, and began to rotate at high speed and disorderly in an unreasonable way. Finally, a highly solid energy sphere took shape.
Rasengan.
