Chapter 650: The Akatsuki's Actions Need No Explanation
Chapter 650: The Akatsuki's Actions Need No Explanation
"Are these the obstacles of the mission?"
Hyuga Shizuki observed Tsunade, one of the Konoha Sanin.
Her stunning and charismatic appearance, coupled with her bold and uninhibited demeanor, exuded an extraordinary charm.
"Are you from the Akatsuki, hired by the Hyuga Clan Branches?"
Tsunade recognized her identity from her attire.
The Akatsuki was currently wreaking havoc in the Land of Wind, slaughtering nobles, and even Konoha had received numerous missions to suppress the Akatsuki. The Fire Country Daimyo had exerted tremendous pressure on this matter.
Konoha was currently engaged in battles with the Cloud and Rock Village Ninjas, or else they might have to intervene.
Unexpectedly, they encountered a member of the organization here.
"The Akatsuki's actions require no explanation."
Hyuga Shizuki mimicked Douhei's 'stiff words.'
"Then let me see if the Akatsuki is as strong as the legends say!"
Tsunade, of course, knew that Orochimaru and Itachi had joined the Akatsuki, and the latter was even considered their pawn, so she didn't waste words and took action directly.
"Tsunade-sama!"
Several ANBU members were about to step forward to help when they were stopped by the Hyuga Clan Branches.
Don't joke!
Chida and Neji weren't left alone; the Hyuga Clan ninjas split into two groups. One group protected the non-ninja team's departure, while the other half stayed behind to cover their retreat.
If no one covered their retreat, with Konoha's pursuit speed, it would be impossible to escape Konoha.
As long as the team escaped a dozen kilometers from Konoha, they could rendezvous with the waiting flying ship and board it.
With a large number of ninjas in the team, their marching efficiency was naturally high, and they could arrive in at most one and a half hours.
In other words, they needed to hold off the pursuers for about an hour.
Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible.
Even if Konoha was weak, it was unlikely that they could hold off the pursuers with their small numbers.
But under this towering inferno, Konoha had to deploy most of its forces to fight the fire.
If they didn't fight the fire and casualties became severe, even if they could block the Hyuga Clan, it wouldn't matter.
Precise and ruthless! Hyuga Shizuki's plan indeed deserved such an evaluation.
Of course, she also drew inspiration from Douhei's ideas and added the black oil they had prepared in advance, which allowed her to formulate this plan.
The effect was astonishing!
Currently, the ninjas in the village were all engaged in firefighting, and they couldn't spare too many people to pursue.
However, while a large number of ninjas couldn't be deployed, a small-scale elite team was feasible, so the upcoming battle would definitely be intense.
"Painful Sky Kick!"
Tsunade suddenly stomped her foot.
Boom!
Starting from where her right foot landed, the front fan-shaped area instantly shattered.
Yes, this move had two uses.
Besides being a direct attack, it could also be used to destroy the opponent's foothold, creating an advantage for herself.
Unfortunately, Tsunade was a bit disappointed that the opponent wasn't affected.
Suspended!
The opponent was actually floating in mid-air, and the cracking of the ground beneath their feet had no impact at all.
Whoosh! Hyuga Shizuki took the initiative to attack, preparing to deal with Tsunade first.
In terms of strength, having reached the Jinchuriki-Class, she was indeed far superior to the opponent.
The problem was that she was currently a member of the 'Akatsuki' organization.
Naturally, she couldn't use her signature abilities.
For example, Silver Wheel Rebirth Explosion, Golden Wheel Rebirth Explosion... these were abilities that couldn't be imitated.
If she used them, everyone would know she was from the Shell Organization, not the Akatsuki.
The Shell Organization could take the blame, but it had made an appearance during the Uchiha Clan Annihilation Night, and appearing again during the Hyuga Clan Annihilation Night would be inappropriate.
So this blame couldn't be shouldered alone; at least half of it had to be shifted to the Akatsuki.
"What are you still doing here? Get lost!"
Hyuga Shizuki ignored the collapsing ground beneath her feet and directly turned to scold Chida and the others.
She didn't want to see the Hyuga Clan Branches suffer too many losses.
These were all Skyguard Tower's people! She didn't care about things like 'clan loyalty,' but if these people helped Douhei, she would pay attention.
Whoosh, whoosh!
As she spoke, she spread her hands towards two ANBU members, causing them to fly towards her as if they had lost their weight.
Gravity Manipulation!
Her Reincarnation Eye could manipulate gravity and repulsion, and as she became more familiar with its abilities, she naturally gained more uses for it.
Against ordinary ninjas, the Ten Thousand World Attraction and Divine Law Heavenly Seal were more than enough.
Consumption? It was no more than a C-Rank Jutsu for her, and with a Chakra comparable to a Large Summoned Beast, Hyuga Shizuki had no issue using this ability.
Even as the two ANBU members struggled desperately, they couldn't break free from this gravitational force.
This was the despair of a Jinchuriki-Class.
"Stop!"
Tsunade arrived with a fierce attack.
Hyuga Shizuki, of course, didn't want to push her luck, so she ceased the gravity manipulation.
After all, she couldn't afford to be reckless with her current state, and her abilities were extremely limited. If she wasn't careful, she might find herself in a dire situation.
Fortunately, the insight from her Reincarnation Eye allowed her to anticipate her opponents' moves, making her immune to sneak attacks or ambushes. Otherwise, she wouldn't dare to guard the rear alone.
Bang, bang!
With Tsunade's monstrous strength, a casual punch could shatter a house, and a kick could crush the ground.
Hinata and Neji exchanged glances and then turned to retreat with the rear guard.
Since the other party had spoken up, they wouldn't insist on staying.
After all, they had just met and had no personal connection. The other party was here for the money, and it was natural that they wouldn't say something brainless like 'fighting side by side.'
The remaining ANBU members wanted to pursue.
"You're asking for death!"
Hyuga Shizuki felt a surge of anger and unleashed her fury.
She was standing guard here, and they didn't even respect her before chasing after the enemy. Did they think she was dead?
With her right index finger, she mimicked the Flame Finger and Chidori Stream's long-range attack.
Hollow Wave! The name was given to her by Douhei, and even though it didn't match the image of a 'finger gun' in her mind, she adopted this name.
Sizzle, sizzle!
The crisp piercing sound echoed.
As Hyuga Shizuki stepped aside, the ANBU members who were preparing to pursue through the gap were all torn apart by a constantly spinning, egg-thick transparent light pillar that pierced their hearts.
Even with the use of Substitution and Teleportation Techniques, they couldn't avoid it.
When facing the Reincarnation Eye, various substitutes, clones, and teleportations were absolutely useless.
To deceive the Reincarnation Eye, one would need at least the level of Shizune or Orochimaru.
"Damn it!"
Tsunade was furious.
The other party had killed while she was restraining them, clearly not showing any respect for her. How could she not be angry?
After her anger, her offensive became even more terrifying.
It must be said that Tsunade's monstrous strength was truly formidable. Each strike's power was no less than that of a Rasengan, and every blow was equally powerful.
Fortunately, Hyuga Shizuki was also a Melee Combat Expert, and with the Reincarnation Eye's boost, her close combat abilities far surpassed Tsunade's.
Therefore, even with Tsunade's strong offense, she couldn't land a hit on Shizuki, and instead, she took a few hard hits herself.
It was only because Tsunade's medical ninjutsu was so powerful that her combat effectiveness wasn't affected.
Both sides created some distance.
"What a nuisance!"
A hint of dissatisfaction flashed in Hyuga Shizuki's blue eyes beneath her hat.
Tsunade's body was a bit disheveled, but her momentum continued to rise, and she regained the heroic spirit of her days on the battlefield.
Blood Fear Syndrome!
When she returned earlier, she had encountered that little ghost and healed him.
Fake healing techniques: Palm Sage Technique, Regeneration Creation: Hundred Hero Technique...
The true healing technique: Talk no Jutsu!
After being cured of Blood Fear Syndrome, when she encountered a strong enemy, how could she not be excited and thrilled?
"Release!"
Tsunade formed hand seals with both hands and directly released the Yin Seal.
An immense amount of Chakra began to swirl around her, instantly boosting her Chakra to rival Hyuga Shizuki's.
Although Chakra didn't necessarily represent combat power, having a vast amount of Chakra would undoubtedly enhance one's fighting capabilities.
Next, it was the second round for both parties.
