Escape From Konoha

"But... damn... is it over here?"

In the quiet forest, Hinata Dongma fell to the ground covered in injuries.

Around him, there were many Konoha ninjas who fell. Ayane, who was only covered in smoke and dust, was a stark contrast between them.

"It's such a pity, Senior Dongjian, I didn't want to kill you originally. But with you entangled like this, it doesn't seem right for me not to make this choice."

Ayane played with kunai in her hand and slowly walked towards Touma.

"Why do you do this...Master Rizu believes in you so much..."

Dongjian didn't quite understand. He coughed up blood from his mouth and looked like he was about to die.

His forehead protector slipped down, revealing the mark of the caged bird.

"Maybe it was for freedom at the beginning, but later on, I'm not sure."

"That's for protection..."

Poof!

Without mercy, he penetrated Touma's throat with kunai and turned it.

"I've had enough of you people's rhetoric. You've been nagging me like this since I was born. If you don't bother me, I'm tired of it. Can't you change it to a way that I can accept more easily?"

Ayane pulled out the kunai, which was stained with the blood of her own race. She shook her black hair and continued towards the dark forest.

◎

The amount of water increased, forming a huge lake directly in the forest, and even began to spread towards the village.

The waves surged forward, swallowing up the wind.

The huge figure of the Dream Eater landed and pushed back the water waves, giving Feng Feng a chance to breathe.

Hiruzen also came here at this moment, his wish-fulfilling stick lengthened, and he fell hard on the head of the giant python that was half out of the water.

With a splash, the giant python dived into the water and disappeared.

The Ruyi stick hits the water surface, causing water waves to splash.

Suddenly, lightning suddenly surged on the water.

The Dream Eater and all the Konoha ninjas were paralyzed by the sudden thunder and lightning.

The ferocious shadow of the giant python appeared again under everyone's feet.

With the roar, all Konoha ninjas within the attack range were blown away, and the Dream Eater became unsteady and rolled on the water.

"hateful!"

Danzo gritted his teeth.

Water escape combined with thunder escape is really a difficult guy to deal with.

The giant python tore open its huge mouth and sprinted into the air, creating waves of water. It took all the strength of the ANBU and Jōnin just to stand firm.

Hiruzen used the wishful stick to support himself and opened the giant python's mouth so that it could not bite.

He was holding the wishful stick and his body was hanging in the air.

In the vacuum water ball on the python's head, Shiraishi looked at Hiruzen through the python's transparent water-based flesh and blood, with a faint smile on his lips.

"That's an ugly look, doctor."

The sound penetrated without any hindrance.

Hiruzen's eyes were full of anger. He held the wishful thinking stick in his hand, and lightning immediately emerged, wrapping around the body of the giant python through the wishful thinking stick.

However, the lightning did not last long before it disappeared and was swallowed by the giant python.

Is it really possible to absorb ninjutsu? It seems that I can only fight with physical skills. Hiruzen's mood was extremely solemn.

"It seems that's the end of it..."

Shiraishi murmured to himself.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhh!"

A loud shout came out, surprising everyone.

Shiraishi subconsciously turned his head to look, and the giant python also turned its head at the same time and was kicked by a foot.

Crash!

Unable to withstand such a terrible impact, the giant python rolled its body directly on the water. Even the vacuum water ball space on its head became unstable and rippled.

I saw blue steam burning on the man's body, and a ferocious beast-like breath erupted from the body. The veins at the temples protruded, and the lines protruding from the surface of the skin could be clearly seen.

As soon as he arrived here, not only Shiraishi and others were surprised, but also all the Konoha ninjas, jounin and ANBU who knew him and didn't know him were surprised.

"Who is this guy?"

Shiraishi glanced at the other person, wearing green tights, funny hairstyle and thick eyebrows. Is this person among the jounin of Konoha?

But the blow that kicked away the giant python just now... must be a very suspicious Jounin of Konoha no matter what.

"Maite Dai, is the father of my student Metkai."

Liuli also opened her mouth and revealed the other party's identity.

"I don't remember this guy among the jounin."

Shiraishi frowned.

Is there a powerful jounin hidden in Konoha?

"He's a genin."

After Liuli finished speaking, Baishi looked at her strangely.

Even Lei Mingwan and Tian Yunu couldn't help but turn their heads.

This kind of strength...is it a Konoha genin?

Are you kidding me?

Even among jounin, only the most elite ones can carry out attacks like the one just now.

Moreover, it should be a pure physical attack, so the giant python cannot absorb it.

"He is indeed a genin. And because he is too weak, he is often teased as a 'ten thousand year genin'."

"..."

Shiraishi was speechless.

If he hadn't known Liuli's personality, he would have thought the other party was joking.

Genin...still a loser who is teased as the 'Ten Thousand Years Genin'...

Konoha genin are so scary.

"I'm sorry, Hokage-sama, I disobeyed the order. Because I really can't stand it. But you only ordered the chuunin to retreat, and I am a genin, so I can ignore the order."

The Konoha genin named Matt Dai said passionately.

"Is that so? Then you are allowed to participate in the war."

Hiruzen took a deep breath and allowed Metadai to come here to fight alongside him.

"Thank you so much."

Konoha genin Matt Dai turned around and looked at the glass in the giant python's head.

"Why would you do such a thing? Kai respects and admires you so much. He said that you taught him many ways to become stronger."

"What a pointless question."

Liuli said coldly.

"Yeah?"

In other words, they are enemies now.

There is no need to show mercy to the enemy.

Even a former companion.

The giant python rushed over and attacked the Konoha genin who hit him with taijutsu.

Boom!

The dull crashing sound stopped, followed by the sound of the giant python's huge body.

The air waves coming from the emptying made the water flow on the giant python ripple.

A soul-crushing feeling.

With his tiny human body, he blocked the impact of the giant python.

Shiraishi was condescending, and his eyes when he looked at Matt Dai became completely serious.

This genin... is terrifying.

Compared to the Third Hokage, this Konoha genin was the greatest threat to his water clone.

"But...how long can this explosive power last?"

Shiraishi saw that Matt Dai's power was just the use of a forbidden technique, not his original power.

Relying on the power obtained by forbidden techniques comes with huge risks, and the duration is also an issue.

"At least I can hold on until I knock you down!"

Swinging heavy air cannons from his fist, the giant python roared and was forced backwards, and the surface water flow collapsed.

"here you go!"

Danzo applauded the attack and used his Dream Eater to attack the giant python.

The huge hooves trampled the giant python under him, and he bit the giant python's body with his mouth, ruthlessly ravaging it.

"Doubling technique!"

Akimichi took the wind and enlarged his palm, swung it with his giant fist, and beat the giant python's body.

Hiruzen was also using the enlarged Ruyi Stick to attack the giant python.

In an instant, the situation reversed.

The giant python scurried back to the bottom of the water in embarrassment, preparing to launch a surprise attack.

boom!

That was the effect of Matt Dai's punch. The water waves squeezed out on both sides, exposing the giant python's body.

"Even if it's taijutsu, this is too exaggerated. Why is this guy a genin?"

Cold sweat ran down Shiraishi's face.

"That's the Eight Gate Dunjia. The body is burning with blue steam, and it's already opened to the seventh gate. He's not a simple guy."

Liuli knew that although Matt Dai's strength at this moment was not enough for him to face up to, it was more than enough to participate in a battle of this level.

"Then let me join the fight. The opponent is a ninja of this level. It's too difficult to rely on your clone alone."

With that said, Liuli took the initiative to break away from the vacuum water ball, stood on the head of the giant python, and jumped to the water above using that place as a fulcrum.

"Finally out?"

Danzo narrowed his eyes.

Liuli glanced at these people, and finally focused on the most threatening Hokage Hiruzen.

Matt Dai's threat is only temporary, and Danzo and Akimichi Tifou are also not a big threat, but Hiruzen Sarutobi, who is known as the 'Doctor of Ninjutsu', is the one who poses the greatest threat.

Stop him here.

All the ANBU and Jōnin accompanying him must also be stopped.

Coming alone? Hiruzen was slightly surprised when he saw Liuli rushing toward him.

Not to be outdone, he fought Liuli head-on, waving the wishful stick in his hand.

Liuli knew the power of the Ruyi Stick, and was completely unable to resist it with her flesh and blood body. She formed a seal with her hands, then put her fingers in her mouth, bit them, and slapped them into the void beside her, as if pressing them onto a real object.

"Psychic art!"

boom.

White smoke spreads out.

A fluffy, slightly obese orange cat flipped in mid-air. It was about the height of an adult, but far larger than a human. It landed heavily on the ground and squatted there in a human posture, causing a shock.

"Leave it to you, Featherfire."

"Don't worry, leave it to me, Lord Liuli!"

There was a serious look on his honest and round face, and he put on a defensive posture.

"cat?"

Hiruzen narrowed his eyes slightly.

Hiruzen then swung the wish-fulfilling stick, which had become normal-sized, and aimed at the psychic cat standing in front of Ruri.

"What?"

The bloated Orange Cat Yuhuo was not knocked away on the spot, but only took a few steps back. The body of the Ruyi Stick sank into the abdomen of Orange Cat Yuhuo, and then rebounded with an even more ferocious force.

Orange Cat Yuhuo's face was twisted in pain, tears welled up in his eyes, but he couldn't hold back the flow.

What kind of guy is Master Liuli fighting? My stomach hurts! Yu Huo felt sad in his heart.

Its stomach, which was hit by the Ruyi Stick just now, must have swelled up and looks fatter than usual.

Hiruzen couldn't stop falling back due to the force of the shock, while Liuli had already jumped into the air and immediately formed a seal:

"Art fire escape ho fireball!"

A huge fireball with a diameter of eight meters fell.

The ANBU who followed him standing on the water immediately released water escape to resist.

However, under such a powerful fire escape, the water waves turned into steam, turning into a scorching inferno on the surface of the water.

The mask that the ANBU ninja dropped was instantly burned and melted in it.

The embarrassed Anbu ninja escaped from the fireball's attack range, and Hiruzen also avoided it in a panic, with burn marks on his clothes.

"Her fire escape technique has a very large range, be careful!"

The ANBU and Jōnin all began to guard against Ruri's Fire Release.

The psychic cat Yu Huo was also running on the water. He looked fat, but his speed was actually not slow. He used his sharp claws to clear the way and push back the Konoha ninjas that besieged him.

Then, these Konoha ninjas spit out lightning and flames from their mouths. After the feather fire flashed, they spit out fireballs from their mouths and attacked the Konoha ninjas.

"Aren't cats' tongues afraid of burning?"

This chubby orange cat not only had amazing defensive power, but was also very fast, and could also spit out fire escape techniques without seals, which surprised the ANBU and Jōnin.

But to say how strong it is, it is not necessarily difficult to deal with.

Over there, Liuli was fighting Hiruzen. Because he had to be careful with the wish-fulfilling stick, Liuli didn't have a weapon in his hand, so he could only use ninjutsu to contain him.

However, he was caught up by Hiruzen several times, and his figure was quite embarrassing.

"Don't even think about hurting Master Liuli!"

Yu Huo rushed in front of Liuli at an astonishing speed, blocking Ruyi Stick's attack again regardless of the pain, giving Liuli an opportunity to attack.

However, Hiruzen already knew that Yu Huo's defensive power was astonishing, and when the wish-fulfilling stick arrived in front of it, it immediately became thicker and larger.

Yuhuo's round body flew into the sky at lightning speed, turned into a meteor, and finally fell into the distant forest, disappearing without a trace.

"I...I tried my best...Mr. Liuli...I feel dizzy now..."

At the edge of the forest of death, Yu Huo's eyes were spinning in circles and he almost fainted on the ground. After saying these words, he turned into white smoke and disappeared.

——The giant python and Metadai's kicks clashed, and the water waves pushed out made it difficult for the surrounding ninjas to stabilize their bodies.

Danzo's Dream Eater was also attacking from the side, not to mention the Akimichi Takafū who was also a threat.

To be honest, even after absorbing the chakra of Kushina and Kyuubi, the giant python still feels a bit overwhelmed when faced with a three-party attack.

There was a sound like thunder, which was the sound made by the Dream Eater butting against the giant python from behind.

"It doesn't feel good to continue like this. Father, do you want me to use my full body state?"

Lei Mingwan was eager to try it.

Powerful attacks continued to collide, whipping up stormy winds that even the sound of heavy rain was muffled.

The thunder flashes in the sky, which really makes the blood boil.

Shiraishi was extremely calm and said without any confusion:

"There is no need to use your hidden state. Although your abilities will be enhanced in this weather, Konoha still has methods left. For the profession of ninja, the strength of the ninjutsu does not determine anything. One strike will kill you. It is the decisive strength. Therefore, intelligence is so important."

Hiding information is a basic and necessary skill for ninjas, and it is also the most important ability.

Moreover... I have almost reached the limit here.

If you continue to absorb the tailed beast chakra, it will exceed the endurance limit of the giant python itself.

Without the support of the water clone, it is still too reluctant to fight these people head-on.

Just a Namikaze Minato who didn't know where he would surprise him was a headache for him.

Although his perception ninjutsu has been placed on him, his time and space ninjutsu does not require movement. There is only a moment of attack gap at the moment it appears.

But it also requires superhuman reflexes to resist.

On his side, only Liuli and Shadow Dancer could react. He, Lei Mingwan and Tian Yunv were not able to react with such speed.

However, there is also a fatal flaw, that is, when transferring time and space, you need to use that special kunai as a medium.

The rumbling waves washed away everything in the forest, the beasts fled, and the earth trembled.

The giant python stabilized its body, and a figure fell from the sky, standing on the head of the giant python, kneeling there on one knee.

The vacuum water ball moved up and then disappeared. Shiraishi came into contact with the outside air and asked Liuli who retreated, "Is it okay?"

She looked a little embarrassed at the moment, and her hair was a little messy.

"It's really a bit tricky to deal with them alone."

Liuli nodded.

Hiruzen came to the front of the formation at this time, and with four bangs, bangs, and bangs, four clones identical to his original body appeared next to him.

"that is……"

Danzo was surprised. He clearly knew Hiruzen's plan and immediately asked the Dream Eater at his feet to move away.

At the same time, the long nose of the dream-eating beast rolled up Metadai who was in the seven-door state, and dodged to the side.

"Danzo-sama?"

"It's time to leave."

Danzo didn't explain much, he just kept urging the Dream Eater to leave.

"Hokage-sama, that is..."

The ANBU also shouted encouragingly.

Liuli narrowed her eyes and quickly wiped up her sleeves, revealing the bracelet-shaped chakra limiters on both wrists.

With two clicks, the metal ring was untied.

Hiruzen and the four clones immediately formed seals. The seals they formed were different from each other, but they were all the seals of the Five Escapes.

Liuli was just using the fire escape seal, accumulating natural energy and chakra in his mouth, and merging it into senjutsu chakra.

Both sides are preparing for the strongest blow and unleashing it at their peak.

"Five Escape·Dalian Bullets!"

Hiruzen and the four clones breathed out at the same time, each spitting out large-scale ninjutsu of different natures.

The waves are running wildly.

Swallowing roaring pillars of fire.

Horrible mudslide.

Lightning piercing the air.

And the storm that rolls around everything.

Five attributes of ninjutsu combined into one.

"Fire Escape·The Great Fire Extinguishes!"

Liuli's Fire Release was also released in one breath.

The surrounding temperature is rising sharply, and the air is filled with extremely dry heat.

Waves of fire surged like a tsunami, dancing wildly into the sky, dyeing the night red.

Through the air, everything in sight was burned to the point of distortion.

The water passing by continued to evaporate, and the trees floating on the water also turned into flying dust in an instant.

The overwhelming and terrifying blows entangled and collided with each other, and then triggered an earth-shattering explosion.

Scattered flying flames, thunder, storm wind, stones, and water waves.

The Konoha ninjas watched all this happen with horrified expressions.

I can't believe this is a battle between ninjas.

What was even more surprising was that in the face of their Hokage's most powerful blow, Liuli blocked it with a powerful gesture, evenly matched.

"Is this...is this still a battle between ninjas?"

Many Konoha ninja swallowed their saliva.

No, I can't interfere in a battle of this level at all.

Entering this kind of battlefield, it is normal to be involved in it and die a humble death.

What kind of monster situation had I entered?

This is simply an arena for monsters.

Only monsters can get involved.

"As expected of a doctor of ninjutsu, my strongest fire escape has no effect."

Liuli's face was calm.

Shiraishi was speechless and looked at the falling water level around him.

If this continues, this forest with a radius of ten kilometers will not be enough trouble.

Hiruzen focused his attention. Although he still had more than half of his chakra left, he felt that there was no way to continue in such a stalemate.

It seems that only...he came up with this idea.

Just when he was about to do something, Shiraishi made a new move. The water in the python's body surged, and Kushina was peeled out of it, landing at Shiraishi's feet.

Shiraishi picked up Kushina's collar from behind, and then turned to the surprised Konoha ninja.

"That's it for today. I have no interest in Kyuubi. I'm done with this woman, so I'll give it back to you."

With that said, he threw Kushina out without mercy.

Throw it out? Hiruzen and all the Konoha ninjas were a little incredible.

That was the Kyuubi. Wasn't the power of the tailed beast enough to make his heart flutter?

Give up so simply?

"Kushina!"

A figure flashed into the air, and Minato caught Kushina who was falling downwards.

Poof!

Bright red spilled out!

Minato stiffened and looked down, seeing a dark shadow blade extending from Kushina's body and piercing through his heart.

"cough!"

He coughed up blood from his mouth, and his vision became blurry. When he fell, he happened to look at Shiraishi's cold-blooded, emotionless eyes under the heavy rain.

"The secret of the ninja is to hide information and kill the enemy with one blow. Showing the enemy's killing ability at will is equivalent to stupidity. However, it is completely worth it to remove the most threatening ninja and expose this important ability. Than You are the most troublesome one among the top management who have no growth, Minato."

Shiraishi slowly turned his back, and out of the corner of his eye he could still catch a glimpse of Minato's falling figure.

In the heavy rain, the blood flying out is so beautiful and red.

"Goodbye, Minato. I'm sorry...at least I'll mourn you a little from now on."

The giant python turned into dust and smoke and disappeared on the water, and the rest of the people were also lost in the smoke.

"Watergate!"

"Damn it!"

"Where are the medical ninjas? Hurry up, who knows medical ninjutsu!"

"Where is Tsunade-sama?"

Under the dark night, only the panicked and anxious shouts of the Konoha ninjas were left.

◎

It's almost early morning.

The heavy rain was still falling in Konoha Village.

Uchiha Rihuo, who had recovered from his injuries, was walking on the streets of his clan. The sadness spreading over the village had nothing to do with him.

He came to an old-style house in the clan, and the maid passing by saluted him.

Across the corridor, it was raining gloomily in the courtyard.

Soon they arrived at the door of a room. There were two Uchiha jounin standing at the door as protectors.

Li Huo silently greeted the two of them, opened the door and walked in.

An old man is lying under the quilt.

Hearing the sound of someone coming in, he opened his eyes in confusion, and a weak voice came out:

"Is it Li Huo?"

he asks.

"Yes, Elder Sifang, it's me."

"How's the situation?"

Li Huo reported softly in the ears of the elders from all directions:

"As you expected, Liuli and some of her clansmen have left Konoha safely."
