Chapter 752: The Fleeing Hokage!
Chapter 752: The Fleeing Hokage!
I have something to say, and today I will speak my mind!
Tang Ping stared at the pit before him, his face darkening like the bottom of a pot.
Yes, he had planned to let the remnants of the Dragon Ground Hole, including Ten Thousand Serpents, Koushi, and Mutsuki, escape, and so he didn't ask Hyuga Tsukimi to use her Reincarnation Eye to find the snakes.
But he had intentionally let them go, and that didn't mean he would allow them to snatch his prey right in front of him.
Just like the saying goes,
'What's given to you is yours, but if it's not given, you can't take it!'
Now, the Dragon Ground Hole was taking his prey right from under his nose.
Although Kai was dead, his body hadn't been destroyed, and who knew what kind of monster they could create.
No wonder Tang Ping's face had turned so dark.
Due to the Flying Thunder God Seal, he could keep track of their location at all times.
But he couldn't intercept them.
Compared to the Dragon Ground Hole, a sacred site, Kai's body wasn't that important, so he really couldn't intercept them.
Tang Ping collected his thoughts and turned to Jiraiya and Tsunade.
"Retreat quickly, Jiraiya!"
Tsunade retreated to Jiraiya's side, signaling for him to escape.
Now, only two people remained on the battlefield, and there was no reason to stay any longer.
After blocking Uchiha Yaya's attack, Jiraiya glared at the slowly approaching figure with endless hatred in his eyes.
Uchiha Douhei!
Mystical Forest Mountain had been destroyed because of him, his teacher had died because of him, and the village was under threat because of him... and more.
The grudges between them had piled up too deeply.
Especially with this plan to extinguish the fire, their hands were stained with each other's blood, and if possible, he would have liked to fight him one-on-one.
But Jiraiya was also well aware that this was just his own delusion.
Aside from the other's overwhelming strength, the very presence of Uchiha Yaya was enough to dispel his thoughts of fighting.
If he only considered himself, he would definitely choose to let go and fight.
The problem was, he was no longer the simple 'Demon' Jiraiya.
Before this title, he had another identity.
The Fifth Hokage!
For the sake of the village, he couldn't die here.
The death of a Kage would have a huge impact on the village.
Especially during this time of turmoil, the village couldn't afford to lose him as their Hokage.
Therefore, even if his heart was filled with anger and hatred, he couldn't let it cloud his judgment.
"Divine Technique: Yellow Springs Marsh!"
Jiraiya performed the hand seals and unleashed this Earth Style.
In an instant, the earth in front of him turned into a swamp, creating an obstacle for any pursuit.
"Go!"
As Jiraiya turned, Shizui on his shoulder also took action.
"Divine Technique: Wind Style Sandstorm!"
A sandstorm blew up, covering most of the battlefield.
With a swamp below and a sandstorm above, pursuing them would be extremely difficult.
It can be said that while strong individuals have different abilities, their ability to escape is never weak. If one's ability to escape is weak, they wouldn't survive long enough to become strong.
But... in this sandstorm, it was extremely advantageous for certain individuals to strike with full force.
"It's my turn!"
A pair of starry blue pupils opened within the sandstorm, and then his right hand clenched into a fist in a certain direction.
"Ten Thousand Phenomenon Heavenly Attraction!"
A terrifying gravitational force sucked Tsunade in as she was about to burst out of the sandstorm.
Bang!
Terrifying power erupted from beneath her feet, shattering the ground.
But the power provided was not enough for Tsunade to break free from the gravitational restraint.
"Tsunade!"
Jiraiya, who was in front, stopped and turned to look at Tsunade behind him.
"Little Jiraiya, run!"
"Are you going to betray the sacrifices of the dead and Kai?"
Chima and Fukuzawa reminded Jiraiya simultaneously.
This opportunity to escape had come at the cost of many sacrifices.
"Jiraiya, go!"
Determination flashed in Tsunade's eyes as she voluntarily gave up resistance and charged into the sandstorm behind her.
Since escape was impossible, she decided to cover for Jiraiya.
"..."
Jiraiya's eyes moistened as he turned and sprinted towards Konoha.
Hmm, it was just missing a sad BGM to set the mood.
If Tang Ping had seen this, he would have definitely mocked it.
Please, this was a betrayal of Konoha, and he was completely the victim. How could they make him seem like some evil villain?
Jiraiya would be heartbroken, naturally due to his feelings for Tsunade.
Let's take a look at this old dog who has been licking his wounds for years.
Now, seeing his dream goddess taking the initiative to cover for him, his emotions naturally exploded in an instant.
However, what he didn't know was that Tsunade wasn't dead.
She had just fought her way back from the sandstorm when she was immediately ambushed by Uchiha Yaya and Hyuga Tsukimi.
Zilla!
Under the effects of the Lightning Armor, Uchiha Yaya charged head-on.
Hyuga Tsukimi, from behind, unleashed a chakra orb, instantly subduing Tsunade, whose condition had already been deteriorating.
Through the previous battle, Hyuga Tsukimi had already gathered a vast amount of data on her opponent. Now, fighting in the sandstorm environment, with her Reincarnation Eye, she had an overwhelming advantage, which was why she succeeded in the ambush.
Two Hyper Shadow-level powerhouses attacking head-on and ambushing her, how could Tsunade possibly withstand them?
They only wanted to capture her alive; otherwise, they wouldn't have gone through so much trouble.
Soon, the sandstorm subsided.
"Do you want to...?"
Uchiha Yaya held the unconscious Tsunade and approached Daimoku, looking in the direction of Jiraiya's escape.
"No need!" Daimoku shook his head. He knew that if he pursued Jiraiya now, there was a chance to kill him, but he had other plans. "At this stage, a stable Konoha is beneficial for us!"
If Konoha were to fall into complete chaos, it would mean that the hidden forces behind it might have to intervene.
At the same time, the Skyguard Tower was currently doing its best to deal with the Water Country and the Wind Country. Only after completely conquering them would it be time to sweep through the Shinobi World.
Time was on his side.
Before he had a sure way to deal with the Six Paths Sage, he would avoid provoking them as much as possible.
As for obtaining the Six Paths power, Daimoku had already planned it out. All that was left was to execute it step by step.
First, they had to conquer the Dragon Ground Hole!
Only by taking control of the Dragon Ground Hole could the Clear Sky Tower cover the entire Shinobi World, and only then could his Paradise Plan begin, making it possible to obtain the Six Paths power later.
Yes, Daimoku's Six Paths plan was related to the Clear Sky Tower, and it had been somewhat vague, but now, after witnessing Might Guy's performance, his confidence grew stronger.
"Good!"
Uchiha Yaya didn't ask further, nodding in agreement.
"However, we can't let the other two forces off easily. They must pay the price!"
Daimoku's tone changed, expressing his determination.
After crushing the central coalition led by Konoha, naturally, they couldn't let the other two forces off easily. They had to give them some 'gifts'.
In fact, the left and right coalition forces had already begun to retreat.
Less than two hundred kilometers away from the central coalition, it would be hard not to notice the commotion there.
"Retreat quickly!"
Daimoku commanded from mid-air, and at the same time, he unleashed a Dust Style technique, dispersing the Skyguard Tower's pursuing aerial forces.
'Damn it! Damn Konoha! Damn the Skyguard Tower!' he muttered in his heart.
He had originally thought that with Konoha's current strength, there was no way an accident could occur.
After all, they had gathered the assistance of the Toad Clan and the Dragon Ground Hole, two great sacred grounds of the Shinobi Beasts, not to mention the two thousand Rock Ninjas he had sent to help.
But he hadn't expected that such a powerful Konoha would actually lose... This made him both angry and shocked.
If even Konoha with its strength had lost, the Stone Hidden Village would only fare worse.
"Day Tiger!"
A voice echoed through the sky.
It was Yamazaka Houshi! After receiving the order to counterattack, he changed his previous defensive style and directly led the aerial forces into battle, opening the seventh gate of the Eight Gates Technique in mid-air and unleashing the Day Tiger technique.
"Dust Style: Boundary Stripping Technique!"
Daimoku, as the Tsuchikage, couldn't afford to retreat.
If he did, the impact on morale would be unimaginable, so he directly unleashed a Dust Style technique.
Boom!!!
The collision between Day Tiger and the Dust Style technique created a terrifying explosion, fully demonstrating the destructive power of a strong Kage.
However, the attack from the sky was merely a cover; the real offensive was on the ground.
In other words, the 'Spring' would take center stage.
