"Partner transformation!" Old Toad said.
"Ah...Okay!" Naruto said.
"Become something with fangs and claws!" Boss Toad emphasized.
On the ground, Uchiha Yangshu, who was resting, had already taken out the body from the scroll and used recellular attraction to quickly restore the bones that had turned into flour-like bones and the muscles like minced meat.
Everything was fine, except that the ground was trampled by them, and the roar was very annoying.
Shukaku was slowly recovering, and the Toad Boss, with the help of Naruto, turned into an orange Nine-Tails, allowing the Toad Boss to successfully capture Shukaku.
Naruto also succeeded in punching Gaara and dispelling the false sleep technique. Shukaku was locked back in screaming like a big fat boy.
But even if this technique is lifted, the one-tailed Shukaku, who is dominated by Gaara's will, is still very powerful. The toad boss is constantly suppressed in the confrontation of power.
Naruto, who was standing above Ichibi Shukaku, had his feet caught and trapped.
When the surrounding sand rushed over and Gaara was about to use the sand-bound coffin to crush Naruto, the Toad Boss's tongue protected Naruto.
But the sand under Naruto's feet had already crawled up.
Moreover, he and Toad Boss's chakra had been completely used up in the transformation technique just now.
Death seemed to be a foregone conclusion.
At this time, Naruto once again asked Kyuubi to borrow chakra.
Suddenly, orange nine-tails chakra emerged from his body, bounced off the sand on his body, and rushed towards Gaara.
Gaara didn't just surrender, using the sand to keep blocking him.
Both sides are already in a state of exhaustion, and now the competition is about willpower.
It's just a comparison of will. Who can compare with a person like Naruto who was called "Demon Fox" since he was a child but still wants to be Hokage?
Even though his grievances were cleared away when he was six years old, his childhood experiences became a powerful driving force for him.
"ah!!!"
Naruto began to roar, his body shaking like a seed sprouting, but his movements were full of determination.
go ahead!
go ahead! !
go ahead! ! !
Keep moving forward!
No matter what happens, keep moving forward!
Naruto finally broke through the sand and gave Gaara a headbutt.
Bang!
This blow was the straw that broke the camel's back.
Gaara had absolutely no strength to maintain the body of a one-tailed Shukaku.
The terrifying body turned into sand and drifted away in the wind.
Naruto and Gaara both fell from the disappeared Shukaku Ichibi and fell to the ground helplessly.
It was a bit far over there, and Uchiha Yangshu could only vaguely hear the squirming sound, as if someone was dragging his body forward bit by bit with his chin.
Gaara was horrified: "Don't...don't come..."
"The pain of being alone is not ordinary pain...I don't know why, but I can deeply understand your feelings..." Naruto's voice was choked and sad.
Uchiha Haruki, who was lying on the ground repairing himself, looked at the blue sky and white clouds, listened to the rustling of leaves, felt the calm after the turmoil around him, and couldn't help but sigh.
"It looks like I will have to raise a tailed beast in the future."
...
the other side.
In the battles at the venue and in the streets of the village, under the leadership of Hyuga Hizashi, Hyuga Hizashi, Uchiha Fugaku and others, Sunagakure and Otogakure were in danger, and Konoha's victory was certain.
Many Sunagakure and Otogakure were captured.
The situation is under excellent control.
Only a few Sunagakure and Otogakure were running away, and many ANBU had already rushed to chase them.
From the village's point of view, apart from the loss of one Hokage, there was not much loss in this battle.
It can even be called a big victory.
It's just that the corpses of Konoha ninjas lying on the cold ground in the streets, alleys and forests looked somewhat tragic and desolate.
They didn't have to die, but because of Uchiha Haruki's words "If you don't break, don't stand", they became the burial objects of the Third Hokage.
And the rampaging three-headed giant snake was defeated by the legendary Sannin Jiraiya.
...
The battle is over.
It's Konoha's victory.
The people who had taken refuge returned to the village and looked at the blood, explosion marks, kunai, and shurikens around them. There was no excitement of winning the battle, only a low and silent atmosphere.
Especially seeing the corpses of Konoha ninjas.
He sighed, longing for peace even more.
They think they are victims.
But the common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying the jade.
If you really want peace, you should leave Konoha, the most resource-rich area.
...
After Uchiha Haruki recovered, he sent Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke to the hospital.
As for Gaara, he was placed in special custody and treated there.
So, Uchiha Yangshu returned home alone.
As soon as the door was opened, Mikoto's mother immediately looked over, holding a kunai, ready to fight at any time.
"Yangshu?"
She immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The next second, she realized that Uchiha Haruki was the only one, and immediately asked nervously: "Where is Sasuke?"
"He was slightly injured, nothing serious. I sent him to the hospital for treatment."
Hearing this, Mikoto's mother felt a little relieved.
"You're not hurt, are you?"
Uchiha Haruki was like a doll, being nervously inspected all over by Mikoto's mother.
After finding out that everything was fine, Mikoto's mother finally felt at ease and showed a thankful smile.
My family is all fine, which is great.
"By the way, Fugaku asked you to wait for him in the study when you come back. He has something he wants to discuss with you."
"good."
"Yang Shu, are you hungry? Can I make you something to eat?"
"Mom, don't cook now."
"Why?" Mikoto's mother was a little confused.
"Many ninjas have died in the village. People will gossip about them if they see them."
"I...I know."
"Sorry mom, I always let things get involved with you."
Mikoto's mother shook her head, smiled, and rubbed Uchiha Haruki's increasingly prickly black hair.
"As long as you guys are safe, mom will be happy."
Uchiha Yangshu also smiled and rubbed her warm palm.
Immediately, he went to the study to wait for Fugaku.
...
night.
Uchiha Fugaku is back.
The moment he opened the study, Uchiha Yangshu could clearly see the excited smile on his face.
Uchiha Yangshu looked at him sitting cross-legged, and a smile could not help appearing on his habitually serious face.
Once, twice, three times...countless times.
Uchiha Yangshu looked at him calmly.
After Fugaku adjusted his sitting posture, he raised his head and looked at Uchiha Yangju with burning eyes.
"Yangshu, how do you think our Uchiha clan should act this time?"
"Dad, do you want to be Hokage?"
"Can you do it?" Fugaku asked in surprise.
"Yes, but not necessary."
"What do you mean?" Fugaku began to frown.
"First of all, you have to understand what the death of the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen means."
Fugaku was startled.
The word "you" made Fugaku wake up in an instant, and he realized that the son in front of him was not talking to him as a son.
So, he pondered for a moment, changed from sitting cross-legged to sitting on his knees, his waist straightened, and the atmosphere became correspondingly serious.
Seeing this, Uchiha Yangshu reluctantly changed his sitting posture and became kneeling.
