September 15th, inside and outside Konoha, in the forest.
Yamazaki, Meidaizi, and Rock Lee found Akimichi Choji sitting under a tree, but he was so thin that they almost didn't dare to recognize him.
Yamazaki checked and found that he was very weak and looked like he might die at any time, but his teeth were clenched and he had to be broken open.
"This is easy to handle." Mei Daizi said with a bad smile, "Hey, fat man, you are lazy here."
"I-I said, I'm not fat, I'm just plump."
Akimichi Choji was confused and couldn't tell who was speaking. He yelled reflexively and opened his eyes again to see. He found that it was Yamazaki, Meidaizi and Rock Lee, and his mouth was stuffed. Something that is bitter yet sweet at the same time.
"Don't chew it, just hold it in your mouth," Yamazaki said. "That's a century-old wild ginseng. It's a powerful medicine, enough to kill you."
"Thank you, thank you." Akimichi Choji became somewhat sober.
Rock Lee asked: "Hey, why are you here and still injured like this?"
Akimichi Choji quickly pointed out: "Ah, hurry up, hurry up and save Shikamaru and the others, they are in that direction."
Mei Daizi asked: "Where is the opponent?"
Akimichi Choji said: "It's the people from Otogakure. There are three left. Shikamaru, Neji and Kiba are delaying them. Naruto sent me here and then went back."
"Okay, I understand, you should have a good rest." Yamazaki sent Akimichi Choji to the iron mouse's space hut. …
On the other side, Seiko, who was resting on the ground, suddenly felt something was wrong underground and immediately moved away.
Coming out of the underground was Kankuro. …
Previously, Gaara, Temari, and Kankuro destroyed the traps and moved forward. After hearing the sound of the flute, they understood that they were approaching the battlefield.
So in order to get the upper hand, the three of them made arrangements.
Kankuro didn't have enough control over the sound attack, so Temari dealt with the sound attack. Kankuro was led by Gaara's earth clone and waited for the opportunity from underground.
Gaara's true form continued to clear the way, and Temari arrived shortly after.
But the battle situation changed too quickly. By the time Kankuro arrived, Hyuga Neji and Kidomaru had both fallen, so Kankuro came to support Inuzuka Kiba.
Kankuro's sneak attack was not by himself, but by his two humanoid puppets.
The crow has three eyes and four arms; the black ant has two horns and six arms.
The two puppets have ten arms, covering nearly all the hiding spaces on the left and right.
Although Sokon escaped, he suffered some injuries. The injuries were not serious, but the wounds were poisonous.
"Damn it, Sunagakure's puppet technique!" Left and right were kneeling on the ground, watching Kankuro appear.
Kankuro asked: "I just want to ask you, was my father Kazekage killed by Orochimaru?"
Sokon went a little crazy, "So what, the Kazekage, in front of Lord Orochimaru, is like an ant that can be crushed at will."
"Then I'll make it happen for you."
"One day, Orochimaru-sama will become a god. He will definitely...ah!"
Kankuro controlled the puppet black ant to come forward, opened his body and shut in the left and right sides.
At the same time, many sharp blades grew on the arms of the puppet black ant, and when he hugged himself, those sharp blades pierced into his body.
Inuzuka Kiba couldn't help but shudder as he listened to the screams from Sokon and looked at the blood overflowing from the bodies of the puppet black ants. Fortunately, he was an ally now. …
Under the cover of Gaara making noise to clear the way, Temari also made a sneak attack on Tayuya.
Summoning a sickle weasel the size of a weasel, and using the three-star fan to create a powerful storm, it swept towards Tayuya. The storm cut countless trees along the way like a blade.
Tayuya had nowhere to dodge, so he quickly joined the three humanoid monsters and used their bodies to cover them.
The three humanoid monsters left Nara Shikamaru. Seeing the storm's posture, Nara Shikamaru didn't dare to rest and immediately stepped away. At the same time, he couldn't help muttering about Temari's violence.
After the storm, a tree stump was left in the forest, but Tayuya was still alive. Her three humanoid monsters were cut into pieces, but after their bodies were broken, three long insects appeared and wrapped Tayuya, protecting her. .
"What is this?" Temari was a little confused.
Nara Shikamaru came over to talk, "It should be something immaterial, otherwise it would have been cut by your storm."
"You don't need to tell me, I can tell, and they can also swallow chakra." Temari said angrily, "If you have the ability, tell me what the names of these creatures are."
Nara Shikamaru spread his hands helplessly, "How do I know this?"
Temari looked at you and said, "You are really in a mess."
Nara Shikamaru said: "Thank you very much for coming to help."
Temari smiled and said, "Don't worry, Kankuro has already gone to the others."
At this time, Tayuya's flute sounded again.
Nara Shikamaru quickly plugged his ears, while Temari slapped him, directly scattering the sound wave.
However, the three long insects did not react and attacked directly towards the two of them.
"Gaara!"
Following Temari's call, Gaara appeared, wrapping his sandy hands around three long worms.
"It's useless, you idiots, my baby won't be...ah, no..."
"I know they're immune to physical attacks, but chakra isn't just physical."
Following Gaara's words, the three long insects with most of their bodies emerging from Sand Hand stopped moving, then turned into stone and shattered.
At the same time, Tayuya also turned into stone and fell to the ground, breaking into pieces.
Gaara blinked, "What's going on?"
Temari said: "It is probably due to the connection of chakra. Her chakra was also replaced by you into stone."
"Well," Nara Shikamaru said, "I think it may be related to the curse seal, because too much chakra was consumed, so it was counterattacked."
Temari asked: "What is the curse seal?"
"It's something that makes them become less human. Their strength will increase at each stage, but they can't be used for a long time," Nara Shikamaru said. "Currently, I only know that the curse seal has state one and state two. She was in this state just now. State Two.”
Gaara said: "The amount of chakra she had just now far exceeded that of an average elite jounin."
At this time, Yamazaki, Midaiko, and Rock Lee arrived, attracted by the storm caused by Temari.
Gaara looked at Yamazaki, "We meet again."
"Well, there won't be another fight, right?" Yamazaki said.
"I'm not sure yet. We'll talk about it later." Gaara said.
At this time, Kankuro controlled the puppets and brought Inuzuka Kiba and Hinata Neji over, "Hey, do you have any medical skills? Help them."
Yamazaki took a look and said, "Ningji is poisoned and needs a blood transfusion. His tooth is damaged in his internal organs. I can only help him stop the bleeding temporarily. Let's send them back to Konoha directly. I'll add this one by the way." He said and sent Akimichi Chouji out. , he was stuffing a lot of beef jerky into his mouth.
"Hey, hey, my beef jerky!" Mei Daizi protested.
"Hey, I'm hungry." Akimichi Choci was embarrassed.
Inuzuka Kiba endured the pain and said with a smile: "Looking like this, it seems that you can't die."
"You are here, where is Naruto?" Nara Shikamaru asked.
Akimichi Chouji scratched his head, "I asked him to come back for support, but he didn't come back?"
"No." Nara Shikamaru looked at Yamazaki.
"We didn't see them on the road either." Yamazaki said, "Anyway, please send these three seriously injured people back first. We'll stay and slowly look for Naruto and Sasuke."...
