Inside the Konoha training ground, a younger version of Tsunade stood in the center of the field, her golden ponytail fluttering in the wind.
She raised her chin, beckoned to the six people in front of her with her finger, and shouted, "Come on, let me test your Taijutsu!"
Kushina Uzumaki clenched her fists, angrily saying, "Damn it, Tsunade- neechan, don't be so arrogant! We're going to defeat you!"
After saying that, Kushina Uzumaki rushed forward and swung her Teuchi at Tsunade.
Tsunade deftly dodged, grabbed the small fist, and with a flick of her wrist, sent Kushina flying.
Minato leaped forward, catching Kushina and helping her steady herself.
Kushina Uzumaki's face visibly flushed red, and she clenched her teeth, staring intently at Tsunade.
Shinsei looked around and said, "Let's all attack together!"
After saying that, he pushed off with his feet and flashed in front of Tsunade, sweeping his right leg low.
Tsunade slightly retracted her leg and accurately stomped her foot on Shinsei's right leg.
With a loud "bang," the immense force of the two exploded onto the earth, creating cracks and fissures.
Four fists flew towards Teuchi from the encirclement.
Tsunade stomped her right foot hard, kicking up a huge clod of mud to block her way, and then she staggered backward.
Three black Tomoe spun in Sasuke's eyes as he nimbly weaved through the flying dirt, continuing his journey toward Tsunade.
Tsunade raised her left arm to block Shinsei's fist, grabbed Sakura's wrist with her right hand, and with a forceful pull, struck Hinata in the chest and abdomen.
Hinata was sent flying by Sakura's power. She knelt on the ground, gritting her teeth, and looked at Tsunade, who was being attacked by everyone, before charging forward again.
Tsunade fought and retreated simultaneously, never facing more than two opponents at a time. If there were too many opponents, she would use their strength against them to create chaos.
"Ahhh..." A massive, almost tangible Chakra erupted from Kushina's body, blowing her red hair wildly.
She charged into the battlefield and kicked Tsunade with all her might. Tsunade easily grabbed Kushina's calf, swung her forcefully, and flung her toward Minato.
Minato had no choice but to abandon his attack, stretch out his arms to catch Kushina Uzumaki and hold her in his arms.
The immense force propelled the two men away, sending them sliding across the ground for several meters.
Kushina struggled to her feet, Minato, and complained, "It's all your fault for being such a sissy, otherwise I would have hit Tsunade!"
Minato didn't argue, he just smiled gently.
The battle on the field continued, and Shinsei easily neutralized every attack Tsunade made, even having the energy to block the other players' moves.
The earth was pounded and riddled with cracks by the combined force of the crowd.
As the saying goes, two fists can't beat four hands, but Tsunade faced six pairs of fists and still managed to handle it calmly.
Shinsei had already realized that having more people didn't put more pressure on Tsunade. Instead, by using the strength of the group, he could both attack and weaken her, creating many openings that wouldn't have existed otherwise.
"Stop!" Shinsei hurriedly called for a halt.
Tsunade crossed her arms over her chest, raised her eyebrows, and looked smug.
Shinsei said, "Teacher, let's discuss some tactics. I don't think continuing like this will pose much of a threat to you."
The six people huddled in a corner, burying their heads together and whispering amongst themselves.
Finally, the six of them finished their discussion. Shinsei extended the back of his hand and placed it in the center of the circle, with the five palms stacked on top of it.
The crowd rallied, their spirits soaring, and many hands swayed downwards.
"Defeat Tsunade!" Kushina shouted.
"Down with the teacher!"
Shinsei and Sasuke rushed forward, one kicking and the other punching, Teuchi at Tsunade.
Tsunade Shinsei in the leg with one fist and caught Sasuke's fist with the other.
The immense force shook the ground, creating a huge crack.
Tsunade raised an eyebrow, surprised that the two opponents hadn't been knocked away by her.
Minato and Kushina Uzumaki from both sides, delivering a punch and a Teuchi.
Meanwhile, Shinsei and Sasuke began preparing their attack, with Sakura and Hinata lurking nearby, ready to strike at any moment.
In a moment of urgency, Tsunade to her chest, aimed them at Minato, and rammed into him with great force.
Minato, having not trained in Superhuman Strength, was easily knocked away by Tsunade and had to adjust his posture in mid-air before landing steadily on the ground.
The renewed battle put Tsunade under immense pressure. Each time, Shinsei and Sasuke would engage in direct combat, while another group would provide support attacks, and the remaining group would wait for an opportunity to strike.
After several rounds, Tsunade took two punches from Kushina Uzumaki, and her golden ponytail fell down, fluttering in the wind.
Tsunade flashed with murderous intent, her aura changed drastically, and she shouted, "I'm getting serious!"
Kushina Uzumaki triumphantly waved her fist and said, " Tsunade- neechan, just admit defeat!"
Kushina's words made Tsunade's gaze sharpen, and she immediately crossed her arms and rammed into Kushina.
Shinsei and Sasuke rushed to stop her, but the immense power contained within Tsunade's body caused Shinsei to stumble, and Sasuke was sent flying.
Superhuman Strength is an amplifier of power, so the inherent power itself is the fundamental point of amplification.
Even with Shinsei's exquisite Chakra manipulation skills, his physical strength was still significantly different from Tsunade's.
As Tsunade's immense strength flung Kushina Uzumaki away, a figure appeared beside Kushina and caught her securely.
Shinsei watched as Minato used the Flying Thunder God; well, one person is out.
Tsunade's attacks did not stop; under the immense power at play, any technique became meaningless.
If we were to say who our best teacher is, it would undoubtedly be another version of ourselves.
It's unclear how the two Tsunade communicated, but the younger version of Tsunade showed visible improvement in just a few days, with her combat power leaping to a whole new level.
Shinsei rubbed his sore arms and said dejectedly, "I'm not hitting you anymore, teacher, you're going to beat me to a pulp."
Looking around at the ground littered with her defeated opponents, Tsunade on her hips and let out a hearty laugh.
Everyone got up from the ground and summoned Katsuyu to heal their injuries.
Kushina Uzumaki herself didn't need healing, but looking at the Katsuyu summoning beasts that almost everyone on the field had, her eyes were still filled with envy.
As Tsunade tied her ponytail back, she smiled at Kushina and said, "So? Want a summoning beast? How about becoming my apprentice?"
Kushina shook the clothes she had just put away and said in a coquettish tone, " Tsunade ~"
Shinsei had never seen Kushina like this before; her deliberately sweet voice gave Shinsei goosebumps.
It seemed only Minato was content, whispering, "I also have a summoning beast. If Kushina wants one, I'll put in a word with Jiraiya- Jiraiya-sensei..."
Before Minato could finish speaking, Kushina said disdainfully:
"I don't want it, it's too ugly."
Minato's smile froze on his face, and he could only awkwardly touch his hair.
Besides their own combat abilities, Katsuyu also have healing and communication functions. Since every disciple in this world has one, the young Tsunade wouldn't mind giving one to Kushina.
" Katsuyu!" Tsunade called out.
" Lady Tsunade." The Katsuyu twirled its tentacles happily.
"Bring me the Summoning Scroll," Tsunade ordered.
"Yes, Lady Tsunade," the Katsuyu replied.
After a puff of smoke, a new Katsuyu appeared in the arena, with a Summoning Scroll at its feet.
Kushina Uzumaki happily signed her name on the Summoning Scroll, picked up the soft, bouncy Katsuyu beneath her, kissed it, and said:
" Katsuyu, you're so cute!"
"Thank you, you're beautiful too, Kushina!" the Katsuyu replied enthusiastically.
A Kunai a distance, and Shinsei caught it in his hand.
Shinsei took the note from the Kunai and began to read it. Seeing Tsunade's questioning gaze, Shinsei handed the note over.
" Lord Jiraiya is back!"
