However, Kōki also has teammates who help him make up for Kōki mistakes.
Upon seeing that Kōki's Fire Style had failed, Akimichi Tsuyoshi pulled a scroll from his pocket and took out an iron rod from it.
This iron rod is a weapon made of excellent Chakra -guiding metal, making it very suitable for the Akimichi Clan to use, and it is also one of Akimichi Tsuyoshi's trump cards.
Akimichi Tsuyoshi grabbed the iron bar, and the Yang Release Chakra within his body began to circulate. " Super Multi-Size Technique."
After using the Super Multi-Size Technique, Akimichi Tsuyoshi transformed into a giant wielding a massive iron rod.
Feeling the power surging within his body, he knew he couldn't maintain this state and had to finish the fight quickly.
He suddenly pushed off with his feet, instantly leaping into the air and charging towards the Sunagakure blocking his path. The strong gust of wind he generated almost knocked over Kōki who were running.
" Tsuyoshi is really starting to go all out now." As Akimichi Tsuyoshi's good friend, Yamanaka Kenji couldn't help but sigh as he watched Akimichi Tsuyoshi's performance.
Upon hearing Yamanaka Kenji's sigh, Nara Yūsuke nodded in agreement. "Of course, this is our last battle to escape the Sunagakure's pursuit and return to Konoha. There's no reason to hold back now."
"We need to step up our efforts too; we can't let Kōki and Tsuyoshi do all the work."
Yamanaka Kenji also agreed with Nara Yūsuke's words. He quickened his pace, preparing to use his secret technique to create an opportunity for Akimichi Tsuyoshi and Kōki.
The Sunagakure, who were Kōki's enemies, were stunned when they saw the giant Akimichi Tsuyoshi descending from the sky. However, as elite ninjas who had dealt with Konoha Akimichi Clan before, they knew how to deal with it.
They also leaped away, leaving Akimichi Tsuyoshi's attack range, and then used Ninjutsu to retaliate.
This gigantic enemy makes a perfect target. Attacking with Ninjutsu is the best way to deal with it.
In an instant, flames, wind blades, lightning, and rocks released by the Yusa Village members rushed towards Akimichi Tsuyoshi.
Faced with this overwhelming attack, Akimichi Tsuyoshi was not afraid. Instead, he swung the iron rod in his hand forcefully, directly scattering the attacks coming at him.
Akimichi Tsuyoshi, who stood in front of the Sunagakure troops, had the imposing presence of a single man holding off ten thousand, like a war god blocking the way for the Sand Village ninja. However, his injured body and slightly charred skin showed that he was not in good condition.
Because there were so many Release Technique attacking him, even though he swung his iron rod in a tight, impenetrable manner, he was still hit by quite a few of Release Technique.
The Sunagakure members knew that Akimichi Tsuyoshi was not unharmed, so they intensified their attacks.
Suddenly Akimichi Tsuyoshi felt the pressure increase, and just as he was about to fight back, he suddenly felt his left foot slip and lose his balance.
Seeing that their carefully prepared trap had worked, the Sunagakure Village immediately used an even more powerful Release Technique, intending to take advantage of the opportunity to kill Akimichi Tsuyoshi.
"Hateful"
After realizing he had lost his balance, Akimichi Tsuyoshi Takeshi immediately understood that he had fallen into Sunagakure's trap, but it was too late. He could only deactivate his Super Multi-Size Technique. He knew that if he didn't return to his original form under these circumstances, he would truly become a sitting duck for the enemy.
However, even after dispelling the Super Multi-Size Technique, he was still in danger, surrounded by the enemy's Release Technique. Moreover, being in mid-air, he had nowhere to gain leverage and could only watch as the enemy's attacks drew closer and closer to him.
But his eyes remained calm; he believed his teammates could help him.
As expected, Kōki and the others did not disappoint him. Several earthen walls suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking the powerful Release Technique that was attacking him. Then, a thick rock pillar rose behind him to catch his falling body.
"Senior Tsuyoshi, how are you?"
"I'm fine, thanks."
Having found a foothold, Akimichi Tsuyoshi, supporting himself on the rock pillar with one hand, turned around and thanked Kōki, who was supporting himself on both hands.
He knew that he had been saved by Kōki.
"Cough cough"
Just as he was preparing to continue fighting, he coughed up blood.
The Sunagakure's attack still caused him some internal injuries. Although the injuries weren't severe, they did reduce his combat strength.
" Tsuyoshi, how are you?" Nara Yūsuke rushed to Akimichi Tsuyoshi's side after seeing him cough up blood and asked with concern.
"It's nothing, just a minor injury. It won't delay our departure from the Land of Rivers."
Akimichi Tsuyoshi made it sound simple, but Nara Yūsuke could tell from his pale face that he was definitely seriously injured.
However, the current situation does not allow for treatment. We can only wait until we escape the pursuit of the Sunagakure forces before Kōki can use Medical Ninjutsu to treat us.
Fortunately, Akimichi Tsuyoshi's outburst not only delayed the Sunagakure forces' encirclement but also opened up a relatively safe path for them to escape the Sunagakure.
" Kōki, it's up to you now. Tsuyoshi can't make a move for the time being."
I can still do it.
Akimichi Tsuyoshi was about to retort, but Nara Yūsuke grabbed him and held him down. He didn't want Akimichi Tsuyoshi to continue to act tough, and besides, the situation hadn't reached its most critical point yet.
Kōki understood what Nara Yūsuke meant. He nodded and then said to Akimichi Tsuyoshi, " Tsuyoshi- senpai, you rest first. Leave the rest to me."
The heavy responsibility of the team's breakout suddenly fell on Kōki's shoulders, and he felt a bit of pressure. However, he quickly turned that pressure into motivation.
Kōki began to gather Chakra, then puffed out his chest and unleashed a powerful " Water Release: Great Exploding Water Shockwave."
Facing the Sunagakure forces ahead, he planned to exploit Sunagakure weaknesses and repeat his previous tactics.
A massive torrent of water gushed from his mouth, rushing headlong towards the direction of the Sunagakure troops.
However, this time, Kōki's plan did not go as he had imagined.
Seeing the surging water, the Sunagakure joined forces. They formed hand Hand Seals and slammed their hands on the ground, simultaneously unleashing " Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall ".
A large wall of earth appeared directly in front of the Sunagakure, blocking the surging water.
Kōki was slightly disappointed to see that his Great Exploding Water Shockwave had failed to repel the Sunagakure troops in front of him.
However, he quickly put this disappointment behind him, secretly estimated the Chakra remaining in his body, and then rapidly Hand Seals.
The water beneath his feet, controlled by his Chakra, surged like a colossal wave towards the Sunagakure troops hiding behind the Earth Style Wall. The powerful torrent, carrying a tremendous impact, instantly destroyed the Earth Style Wall.
The Sunagakure behind the earthen wall were caught off guard and struck directly by Kōki's Water Release Water Release technique, which had breached their thick defenses in an instant.
The water that had destroyed the earthen wall began to form a huge Uzumaki, engulfing the Sunagakure troops.
Seeing the Sunagakure members gathered by the water, Kōki slapped the water's surface with both hands. A Uzumaki appeared, and an upward current of water lifted the Sunagakure into the air. Then, the water transformed into a giant water dragon that swirled and twisted in the air before roaring towards the Sunagakure members.
Water Release: Water Dragon Biting Explosion
Kōki once again used the Water Release he learned from the Second Hokage Tobirama Senju, and struck successfully, clearing the way for their return to Konoha.
