Capturing Princess Tsunade

Chapter 019: Capturing Princess Tsunade (Bonus Chapter for 2000 Recommendation Votes)

Tsunade's eyes widened as she watched her chakra-enhanced punch being blocked. When facing Sand Shinobi puppets, no one had ever been able to stop her chakra-enhanced punches; she would shatter them one by one, even the ones tougher than human flesh. Compared to them, ordinary humans were no match.

Furthermore, as a Taijutsu specialist, Tsunade was incredibly fast. Many opponents couldn't even activate their Substitution Technique, or they were hit mid-activation.

The impact was so devastating it felt like her internal organs would be expelled.

She wasn't a merciful person. Since becoming a ninja, she had killed countless people. Therefore, Oguri Hayashi's attempt to steal the Book of Ninja was a complete betrayal, and she would show no mercy. Her mistakes were her own to rectify.

"Princess Tsunade, do you know the advantage of good Taijutsu?" Oguri Hayashi asked, transferring all that pure power to the ground through his My Style Secret Technique. Even as he held Tsunade's hand, it trembled.

This rudimentary muscle enhancement technique she had developed herself was too powerful. Although incredibly crude, its talent was unparalleled. If Might Guy could learn this technique and compress chakra within his body, he could probably kick his way to the end of the story.

In an instant, his Shadow Clone not only didn't dissipate into smoke but also sent Third Hokage, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru flying.

"The benefit of Taijutsu is that even Shadow Clones can be used with ease, without being unusable due to chakra limitations."

Shadow Clones inherently contain very little chakra, making them incapable of using Ninjutsu—except, of course, for Naruto's Shadow Clones, who possessed infinite chakra and could even form a Rasengan.

The biggest difference with Oguri Hayashi's Shadow Clones was that those equipped with the Lightning Armor had greatly enhanced defense compared to ordinary Shadow Clones. Unlike others' Shadow Clones, which shattered on contact, Third Hokage, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru had completely underestimated his personal Taijutsu skill and were sent flying by his My Style martial arts. It was entirely normal.

Oguri Hayashi, the original body, exhaled a stream of hot air, sinking another two centimeters into the ground. Using the leverage from these two centimeters, his left hand instantly shot towards Tsunade's face.

Tsunade's heart leaped, and she raised her hand to block, only to see Oguri Hayashi's left hand snake around her arm and strike her face.

Her cheek took a heavy blow, and Tsunade was sent reeling backward. Then, her fist, still held by Oguri Hayashi, was yanked back, and another punch landed on her face.

After just two punches, Tsunade was already losing consciousness.

After all, she was just an ordinary ninja. Even though her Super Strength Technique could kill enemies in one blow, when facing an enemy with a similarly powerful Super Strength Technique, Tsunade's performance wasn't much better than the enemies she had killed.

The current Oguri Hayashi wasn't even using his full strength. If he used the Heavier Rock Technique, he could kill the current Tsunade in one strike.

This was why he dared to brave Konoha, knowing it was a dragon's den.

If he possessed secret ninja techniques like the Lightning Release Body Cultivation Technique, My Style Secret Technique, and the Heavier Rock Technique, yet still hesitated and stagnated, then Oguri Hayashi's future would be limited.

Though fear gnawed at him, there was no hesitation. Konoha was his former home and his current whetstone.

He had been reborn, and he intended to use Konoha as a whetstone to sharpen his edge, growing stronger with every setback!

Tsunade's easy defeat certainly had an element of her being caught off guard, but Oguri Hayashi's own strength was also the reason he had incapacitated her with two blows.

He hadn't been wasting time these past two months!

He grabbed Tsunade, pulling her into his embrace, and instantly used his martial arts to dislocate her arms. Tsunade's arms hung limply at her sides as if broken, while he held her by the throat.

Describing it made it seem slow, but it happened in an instant. Before the other ninja could even react, before Third Hokage, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru, who had charged forward, were sent flying, Tsunade had already become Oguri Hayashi's captive.

The ninja let out a collective gasp.

But Oguri Hayashi, with Tsunade's arm around his neck, remained motionless.

All three Shadow Clones dissipated, allowing his chakra to slowly return to normal levels.

His chakra reserves were too low, so he had to use them sparingly.

"If it's Princess Tsunade, she should be worth enough to buy my freedom," Oguri Hayashi said, his eyes sharp as a razor, looking at the retreating Third Hokage.

With her joints dislocated, she couldn't form hand seals. Whether it was the Substitution Technique, Body Flicker Technique, or even attacking with her feet, her movements would be too large. For a martial arts master like Oguri Hayashi, any Taijutsu she attempted would be instantly controlled.

This captive had to be Tsunade.

Tsunade's identity was too special. Her grand-uncle, the Second Hokage, was Third Hokage's teacher. Her grandfather was the founder of this village, the last direct descendant of the Senju Clan, and the future Fifth Hokage.

If it were Jiraiya, he would immediately commit suicide to ensure his teachers' decisiveness. As for Orochimaru, he had countless secret techniques, with the Golden Cicada Shedding Technique being particularly memorable.

Only Tsunade, as a Taijutsu and Medical Ninja, had overly simplistic methods and tactics, making her easily countered and captured.

Oguri Hayashi's gaze was calm. Even after clashing with a Kage-level and three quasi-Kage-level ninja, his breathing was undisturbed. Noticing this, Third Hokage's expression grew grim.

This opponent was truly formidable. Had he been hiding his strength all along? Both he and Tsunade had underestimated him!

"Don't mind me..." Tsunade's consciousness cleared slightly from the concussion. After all, she was a ninja. An ordinary person would have lost consciousness, but for her, it was merely a few seconds of dizziness.

But instantly, Oguri Hayashi's fair hand brushed across Tsunade's chin. He was too fast; no one saw what he did, only that Tsunade's jaw had been dislocated with a click. Saliva slowly dripped from her unclosable mouth, down her chin, to her neck, and onto her generous chest, looking quite alluring.

"Princess Tsunade, please keep your mouth closed for a moment," Oguri Hayashi said, whispering into her ear. "After all, I didn't use your hemophobia against you, did I?"

Tsunade's pupils contracted to pinpricks, but she stopped struggling.
