The strange power technique requires excellent chakra control and explosive power. Chakra can be concentrated in one part of the body and then exploded, causing the sky to shatter.

As the best medical ninja in the ninja world, Tsunade's "strange power" has undoubtedly reached its extreme.

The competition in strength between the two is not on the same level at all.

In a way, Tsunade is bullying children.

"So far, Uchiha brat, I win."

Tsunade showed a smile, not intending to drag it on any longer, and the power in her hands gradually deepened.

Zuosuke gritted his teeth and the muscles on his face tensed.

"I'm afraid this woman's power can hammer a tailed beast to death!"

Seeing that Tsunade still had the energy to speak, Zuosuke knew that the other party still had energy left.

No matter how violent his Thunder Release Chakra is, it is still not comparable to Tsunade in terms of power.

Moreover, his development of Thunder Chakra focused more on speed rather than strength...

"Speed ​​is power."

Naruto said coldly.

In an instant, a flash of lightning flashed in Zuosuke's eyes, and the blue arc around him suddenly stopped.

But the next moment, blue light exploded again.

Squeak!

Peng!

There was the sound of the earth exploding in the woods, smoke and dust were scattered, and a large number of rocks were flying everywhere.

"Sasuke-kun!?"

"Tsunade-sama!?"

Sakura and Shizune's expressions changed.

When the smoke and dust dissipated, the entire rock had been broken into several pieces, but the two of them were still squatting there firmly, with cracks on the ground beneath their feet.

Tsunade looked at her palms that were pinned to the ground with a look of shock on her face, her whole person looked haggard and embarrassed.

"Hum hum???"

In this scene, even the pink pig opened its mouth slightly, showing an expression of human disbelief, which looked very funny.

Ignoring everyone's expressions, Zuosuke let go of Tsunade's palm, shook his slightly red and swollen right hand and said, "I won, right?"

"Of course." Naruto smiled slightly, "After all, I said it from the beginning, this is an arm wrestling, not...a competition of strength."

Tsunade also came back to her senses, looked deeply at Naruto and Sasuke, and then a smile appeared on her lips.

"Tsk, is speed equal to power? You guys are a bit clever."

Others may not see it clearly, but she sees it clearly.

Just now, just when he was about to lose, Zuosuke's strength suddenly relaxed for a moment.

With this loosening of strength, Tsunade's hand pressed down and she lost her footing of strength in mid-air.

But before she could react, it was almost within a few tenths of a second.

Zuosuke's power surged out in an instant, reaching its peak again with lightning speed, suppressing Tsunade who lost her power balance.

"Use your own advantages, exploit your strengths and avoid your weaknesses, and win with speed." Tsunade stood up from the ground, patted the dust on her body, and praised, "A beautiful counterattack, you won."

Tsunade didn't bother playing tricks with the brat.

She thought she couldn't do that kind of exaggerated reaction speed.

Moreover, Zuosuke was undoubtedly gambling, or he was quite proud and confident about his speed.

Have the confidence to put yourself to death before being overwhelmed.

"Tsunade-sister, now that we have passed the test, what should we do next?" Naruto asked with a smile.

"Well, what are you doing..." Tsunade pretended to frown, looked up at the setting sun in the sky, and said in a pretentious tone, "It's getting late, so we might as well just stay here today. We'll be there at eight o'clock tomorrow. Gather here."

"...Eh?" Hearing this, Sakura was obviously stunned for a moment.

A break of arms and it's over? ?

"That's it, disbanded." Tsunade didn't say much nonsense and thought hurriedly.

Leave with seal.

But Naruto's sudden words made her stagger.

"Tsunade-nee is in such a hurry, are you in a hurry to go to an izakaya or a casino?"

At this point, Naruto paused, and said with a look of surprise: "Oh, yes, Sister Tsunade should have been banned from the casino in the Land of Fire long ago. It is impossible to go to the casino, so she can only go Drinking at the izakaya."

As soon as these words came out, Zuosuke's eyes suddenly became strange when he looked at Tsunade, and the respect that had just risen in his heart completely dissipated.

As expected, he is one of the "Sannin" along with Jiraiya.

The three ninja prohibitions, prohibition on alcohol, prohibition on luxury, and prohibition on sex, were all violated.

"I, I seem to have heard something terrible."

Sakura's expression was obviously a little disillusioned, and her entire appearance turned gray.

Drunkard and gambler?

The idol image in my mind suddenly collapsed.

"What are you talking about, you brat? You're really becoming more and more insignificant."

Tsunade's face turned red with anger, and she turned to look at Naruto, banging her fists: "How could I possibly abandon my students and run away on my own!"

How could she admit such a thing, especially in front of her own students.

Thinking of this, Tsunade hugged Naruto's neck and squeezed his cheek with her broad chest.

"Kid, listen carefully, if you dare to spread rumors again, my fist will come to your house gently, do you understand?" Tsunade narrowed her eyes, her tone full of threats.

"Yes~ I understand~"

Naruto, who was suffocated by facial cleanser, nodded and said angrily: "Sister Tsunade has excellent character and is gentle and amiable. She will not drink and become crazy, nor will she default on gambling, nor will she use violence against students for no reason. .”

[An app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, used by all old bookworms.

Ma stood in front of the window and looked out from a distance.

His office is at the highest point, and half of the Snow Country can be seen from here.

This is a habit that Menma has developed in recent years.

When you stand on a high place and look into the distance, your thoughts seem to broaden and you see more things.

The demon re-sealed it, but the follow-up issues still need to be dealt with.

During his battle with the demon, the "Terracotta Army" controlled by the demon caused serious damage to the border cities of the Land of Snow.

Those "immortal" stone soldiers are difficult to resist with the garrison stationed there. Only "immortal magic" can completely defeat them.

However, the "Spell Squad" has a limited number and can only take the residents of the city to escape.

Although no casualties were caused, the main roads in some towns were trampled by the stone soldiers, causing the roads to collapse.

These damaged towns need to be restored and rebuilt as soon as possible.

For other countries, this may be a huge, complex and labor-intensive project.

But for the country of Snow, which now has a special ninja engineering team, it is not difficult.

The ninjas in this engineering team are not good at fighting, but are proficient in various earth and water escapes that are beneficial to construction, and they also have several years of rich construction experience.

Their productivity far exceeds that of ordinary people.

Cooperate with ordinary workers to participate in construction work, greatly increasing the efficiency of road and town reconstruction.

"...Joint Chuunin Exam?"

Menma looked at the information in his hand and narrowed his eyes slightly.

I finally waited for this opportunity.

According to intelligence, one month from now will be the day when the Konoha Chuunin Examination begins, at which time Konoha will invite ninjas from all over the world to participate.

Although Konoha's reputation has declined somewhat now, it still has huge appeal in the ninja world.

Mostly to test the specific strength comparison between our own ninja and other countries' ninjas.

Or maybe he is using this opportunity to show his younger generation to other countries and prove that Konoha has not declined and is still the number one ninja village in the ninja world.

If it is organized well, Konoha's reputation will naturally rise and even suppress some ambitious people who are ready to make a move.

But if it fails... it will not only deal a blow to Konoha's reputation, it will even stimulate the undercurrent of the ninja world and start another ninja war.

——This is a big gamble, and Konoha is confident that it can win this big gamble.

"The poor guy who thinks he has everything under control."

Menma put down the information scroll and smiled: "Surrounded by wolves, there are internal and external troubles, and there is no solution to this situation."

Countless people were secretly staring at Konoha, trying to chew a piece of meat from his corpse.

Everyone wants to be the final winner.

Next, just wait for that day to come.

"But before that, there are still some preparations that need to be completed."

The backup he had planted in Konoha was enough.

There is only one last hidden danger left.

——Hyuuga clan, caged bird.

"Caged Bird" is an advanced sealing technique engraved into the soul. It will even gradually become stronger as the soul becomes stronger.

In other words, even if Hinata has the "Reincarnation Eye" in the future, she will be more or less affected by the caged bird.

Unless the level of life rises and becomes the true "Six Paths".

However, Menma had already found a way to temporarily block the "caged bird" based on the top-secret information of the Hyuga clan.

Since "Caged Bird" is a sealing technique, it requires chakra to maintain it.

Therefore, there are two ways to block the "caged bird"

The first one is to replace chakra with natural energy.

The second one is Hinata's own method.

——"Caged Bird" is bound to "Little Hinata", what does "Big Hinata" have to do with me?

But these two

The solution is ultimately just a stopgap measure.

He must completely crack the "caged bird".

This would allow Hinata to regain her freedom without losing her Byakugan.

It was impossible for Menma to directly use Hinata's body to conduct this dangerous experiment that was completely unsafe.

So, Menma got an "experimental subject".

Kakakaka...

As Menma opened the seal with his hands, the bookshelf slowly moved away to reveal the secret room behind it.

On the operating table, a pale and deeply comatose teenager lay.

It was Hyuga Neji who was captured by Menma's men at the beginning.

He injected Neji with a special version of sleeping pills, and then used powerful restraint tools to fix his whole body on the operating table and disrupt the flow of chakra in his body to prevent him from waking up and disrupting his research.

The connection between the Caged Bird Curse Seal and the Byakugan, including its creation and response methods, has been learned by Menma.

Now there is only one finished sample left for observation, so that the experiment of breaking the caged bird's curse seal can be truly foolproof.

Neji's role is to find a way for Hinata.

At the same time, he also strives for the glimmer of hope called "freedom" for himself.

Snapped.

Menma put on gloves and came to the operating table, looking deeply at the unconscious Neji.

His forehead protector has been taken away, and a green crossed curse mark is revealed on his forehead, with two opposite green hooks next to it.

This is the "Caged Bird" curse seal that binds the Hyuga branch ninjas.

"Konoha should have received the news of your disappearance."

Menma narrowed his eyes slightly and whispered: "Kid, it may be painful. I hope you can hold on. You must hold on."

The reason why he chose this kid was because he saw the desire for freedom and the resentment against fate in Neji's heart.

Compared with those domesticated "separate families", Neji is the most suitable candidate.

Menma picked up the "Natural Energy Potion" extracted from the Grayl Stone.

This is a drug used to maintain body activity.

After Menma drains all the chakra, Neji will fall into a state of suspended animation.

The "caged bird" curse mark will turn into a rootless duck.

At that time, it is the most dangerous time, and it is also the vulnerability of the caged bird.

And these natural energies will actively provide him with energy, ensuring that Neji can carry out life activities at a minimum.

This state will remain for between one hour and two hours.

Menma needs to find the flaw in the caged bird in a short period of time.

It's like finding the hidden explosive line before the bomb explodes, and then cutting off the explosive line.

However, once the wrong "thread" is cut, the "bomb" will explode.

The last step was to complete the recovery surgery and get Neji out of suspended animation.

All experimental steps are self-explanatory.

Menma simulated it in his mind more than ten times and determined that the theoretical structure was very complete and there was nothing that needed to be added.

That being the case.

"I hope your belief in freedom can bless you to survive!"

Menma took a deep breath and immediately injected the "Natural Energy Injection" into Neji's body without mercy.

Poof!
