Chapter 109 I Gambled My Leg on the New World
"Why are you here? When did you come?"
Tsunade looked at Li Zhongren, her eyes filled with both emotion and relief.
He felt that the decision he made was the right one. In less than a year, the twelve-year-old kid in front of him was already able to fight with Hanzo of the Salamander.
The good news is that this little guy was able to come here in the midst of danger. It is obvious that no matter what the old man does, he will not take the initiative to give the order to send the only Wood Release to the battlefield.
In a sense, this little guy who looked depressed and didn't care about anything at first seemed to have opened his heart to her.
"I came a long time ago. I wanted to help."
As Li Zhongren spoke, his eyes never stopped looking around. Under the earth, roots were also lingering everywhere, but unfortunately, there was still no trace of Nagato. It was obvious that he must have hidden himself using the invisibility chameleon from the animal realm, one of the six realms.
"However, when I saw a young man break the defensive barrier, I planned to sneak attack him when he made a move. Unfortunately, it didn't go as planned. A demigod is still a demigod, and we must show him enough respect."
Li Zhongren said this sincerely. Salamander Hanzo is definitely a battlefield ninja. He doesn't have any particularly strange tricks, just interstellar level chakra technology. He can use chakra to produce unlimited toxic gases without relying on raw materials, and release them onto the battlefield.
Unless it is a situation like the fight between gods in the later part of the original work, at present, ninjas are still in the era of glass cannons. Combined with his own Water Instant Body Technique that is comparable to the Flying Thunder God Technique, it is basically unsolvable.
In fact, even if the poison was cracked, and they took precautions in advance, Hanzo of the Salamander would not have died. Just like now, he used a joint ninjutsu, Poison Tornado, to knock down thousands of ninjas, although the price was that thousands of ninjas on his side were exhausted.
This is why he wanted to guide Nagato to form a bond with him.
The ten years between the Second Ninja World War and the Third Ninja World War were the ten years that he and Minato planned. One of the points was that they needed a Rain Ninja to stand there, and not just stand there, but have the ability to sit at the table.
Then, the Rinnegan, which comes from the bloodline limit of the Six Paths Sage, is the key.
For a Rain Ninja who possesses the Rinnegan, it is equivalent to possessing the tailed beasts. Possessing the tailed beasts is equivalent to possessing a permanent and secure basic base. No matter how you fight, I can ensure that I have a stable base and city for sustainable development. This is the unspoken rule. If someone breaks this rule, it would be like the five major countries on earth turning the table over. It is almost the same principle.
Of course, there is another point that is more important than this, which is whether the Rain Ninja can see it. If not, he will probably need to remind them at that time.
"Alright, sister, leave the demigod to me, you guys hurry up and recover your fighting strength."
As he spoke, Li Zhongren took out a round plate from his arms and handed it to her.
"This is."
"The Sandaime should have told you about the Chakra energy storage device. You can use it by sticking it on your stomach. However, it may be a little painful, so you have to bear with it when you use it."
After saying that, Li Zhongren's figure flashed and disappeared above the head of the Slug Immortal.
"Wooden Release·Wooden Man's Technique!!!"
The moment he landed, Li Zhongren drove the "Little Gundam" without hesitation!
Countless roots intertwined and gathered into the shape of a giant wooden man, wrapping Li Zhongren inside. After all, facing the Salamander Hanzo, he knew that he would definitely not be the opponent's opponent under normal circumstances, so there was no need to be polite.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!"
Hiding in the wooden man that was more than ten meters high, Li Zhongren no longer had to worry about defense. The roots that spread all over the earth sensed the figure of the Salamander Hanzo and fed it into his mind. He waved his two huge fists wildly and smashed towards the Salamander Hanzo.
As for the Salamander Hanzo, he kept dodging Li Zhongren's attacks with the help of the Water Instant Body Technique, and looked somewhat embarrassed.
But it's normal.
After losing the Salamander Ibushi, he had almost no special way to deal with an opponent like Li Zhongren who drove a Gundam. As for the technique of detonating talismans, for the wooden man, it was actually no different from tickling.
However, soon, Li Zhongren didn't dare to punch anymore.
Because Hanzo of the Salamander flashed into the middle of the Konoha ninjas in an instant, most of the Konoha ninjas were still unable to recover their ability to move, and therefore became perfect meat shields.
"Humph!"
Seeing this, Li Zhongren didn't waste any words. The huge wooden man rose from the ground and rumbled towards the four earth walls as high as hills that surrounded the Rain Ninja.
A kind person cannot command an army, and a good person cannot be an official!
Once on the battlefield, one must be ready to die at any time. Li Zhongren would not be stupid enough to hammer the Salamander Hanzo in the crowd, but he would not stand there and waste time either. With the LV30 bloodline of the sacred tree, he is not yet able to use the ninjutsu of Hashirama Senju to achieve a balance between income and expenditure by drawing on the mountain of magic energy.
If he were playing a game right now, there should be a flashing progress bar in the upper left corner. When the progress bar reaches the end, his wooden man technique will collapse by itself.
So, he decided to exchange people with Hanzo of the Salamander, you kill yours and I kill mine.
as predicted.
Salamander Hanzo was slightly stunned, and a hideous smile appeared on his face, which had already taken off the mask.
When it comes to being cruel to himself, he has never been afraid of anyone.
So, as soon as his figure flashed, several Konoha ninjas lying on the ground lost their lives, and he was harvesting more and more people at a faster speed.
“Salamander!!!”
In the distance, Jiraiya and Orochimaru rushed towards Hanzo, but unfortunately, in front of the opponent's instant body technique, the two of them were like two followers.
On the other side, Li Zhongren did not hesitate and hammered the giant he controlled into the earth wall.
Punch after punch.
The huge impact force directly caused the earth wall to break and collapse, rumbling and crashing down.
Only a few elite Chunins and Jonins dodged, and the remaining two thousand or so ninjas were buried alive underneath the huge earth wall.
Moreover, Li Zhongren suddenly controlled the wooden man to jump up, and stomped his foot down with a rumbling sound, completely tamping the earth wall!!!
"Ninjutsu, Secret Technique, Slug Technique!!!"
Finally, relying on the thing tightly attached to her lower abdomen, several root-like things stretched out from it and inserted into the chakra storage under her skin. Tsunade Senju restored her chakra. Then, she overdrew herself again. The slugs under her feet instantly split into countless ones, scattered all over the battlefield, and stuck to those surviving ninjas.
Unfortunately, such treatment still takes time.
And Hanzo of the Salamander, wielding the sickle in his hand, was slaughtering Konoha's ninjas at a rate of at least ten people per second.
However, she couldn't blame Mitsuha Takanashi. After all, he was not her great-grandfather. Not to mention him, weren't Jiraiya and Orochimaru on the ground being led around like two dogs by Hanzo of the Salamander?
There is only a wrong name, not a wrong nickname. If he does not have this deterrent power, why is he called a demigod on the battlefield?
"about there."
Li Zhongren sensed the tree formed by the bloodline of the Thousand Hands clan growing on the Mountain of Magic Energy in his mind, as well as the fruit hanging under the tree, and suddenly rushed towards the Salamander Hanzo. The huge wooden man fell apart in that instant, and countless roots rose from the ground, forming a huge net woven by tree roots!
Of course, he didn't expect this thing to be able to control Hanzo the Salamander.
At the same time, a sharp sound came out of his mouth!!
Then, four light curtains rose from the ground, up, down, left and right, completely blocking the area.
It’s the Four Red Yang Formation!
At the same time, four huge mounds of earth rose up under the ground, and in the mounds were four ninja troops from Konoha, or more precisely, from the Senju clan!
These were the special forces that Li Zhongren secretly transported out of Konoha little by little using Wood Release, and then moved forward stealthily all the way to the Rain Ninja Battlefield! All the people here were ninjas that were transformed based on the chakra energy storage device.
Under the leadership of Uzumaki Kushina, they used themselves as ninjutsu circuits and performed Uzumaki Mito's simplified version of the Four Red Yang Formation, trapping Hanzo of the Salamander and Li Zhongren himself in space.
At this moment, here, no passage is allowed.
Even in space ninjutsu, entry is allowed but exit is not. The only way to exit is to break the Four Red Yang Formation.
"Wood Release: Cyberpunk."
In the light curtain, Li Zhongren was half-kneeling on the ground, and a large amount of scarlet chakra gushed out around his body. The chakra gathered into a familiar flower bud, wrapping Li Zhongren inside it. Outside the flower bud were Hanzo of the Salamander, who was tied up in the Four Red Yang Formation, as well as Jiraiya and Orochimaru.
Of course, as their own people, under the guidance of Uzumaki Kushina, the two of them passed through the light curtain directly, leaving only the Salamander Hanzo alone.
"Boy, you are really cruel."
At that moment, Hanzo of the Salamander couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He thought he was ruthless enough, exchanging the lives of the Rain Ninjas for the lives of the Konoha Ninjas. It was a win no matter how you looked at it.
However, he did not expect that his opponent, despite having backup, would allow him to slaughter his own ninjas just for such an opportunity.
"I just made the best choice."
Li Zhongren raised his head expressionlessly and looked at the Salamander Hanzo.
"If I can't kill you with one strike and control you, even if I call them out, it will only result in more deaths. I can have a clear conscience."
"Well, goodbye, Mr. Demigod."
"open!!!"
The scarlet petals suddenly contracted and then expanded, and the huge petals almost filled the entire Four Red Yang Formation in an instant!
However, just when the petals were about to touch the Salamander Hanzo.
A figure directly broke into the Four Red Yang Formation, and seemed to have directly dissolved a hole in the Four Red Yang Formation.
Naturally, this person is Nagato. He should have used the power of the Hungry Ghost Path to penetrate the Four Red Yang Formation. However, facing Wood Release Cyberpunk, he felt that the Hungry Ghost Path should not be able to absorb this kind of chakra. In a sense, it is closer to natural chakra, even more violent and disordered than natural chakra. Otherwise, Kizaru next door would not be scared away by this move.
However, the figure did not stop after passing through the barrier, but swallowed the Salamander Hanzo who was forced into the corner in one gulp.
That’s right, that figure was not a person, nor was it Nagato, but a dog. There was just a hand in the huge mouth, which pulled the Salamander Hanzo in at a very fast speed, and then, Scarlet descended.
The dog wrapped in scarlet chakra began to decompose, and then instantly grew a bunch of dog heads, dog paws, and dog bodies, and then these heads, paws, and bodies were also decomposed.
Just like that, after a few seconds of stalemate, the red light dissipated, and the dog that seemed to be able to grow infinitely seemed to be dying, and disappeared with a puff, leaving only Nagato who escaped the range of the Four Red Yang Formation, and the Salamander Hanzo.
However, the salamander had one leg half-hidden, and it had already disappeared from the end of the thigh above the knee.
"Oh!"
"Oh!"
"Oh!"
A dull heartbeat sound came from the red-haired boy Nagato. He looked at the legs of the Salamander Hanzo, and the pupils of his Samsara Eye were like fish bubbles, as if they were about to bulge out. At the same time, a strange aura also spread.
This is not an illusion, but a real breath. As this breath spreads, it seems as if the whole world has stopped.
"Okay, I'm fine."
Then, a warm embrace embraced Nagato, who seemed to be about to go berserk, and a mask was put on Nagato's face.
"You are still young. If there is no special situation, do not overdraw the power of the Samsara Eye. Develop it little by little. Before that, the Rain Country will protect you. I believe that in the future you should also protect the Rain Country."
"I will!"
"That's fine. Just think of it as a bet of my leg on your future?? Haha"
As he spoke, Hanzo slowly stood up, put one hand on Nagato's shoulder, looked at Li Zhongren, and also looked at the Konoha ninjas who were also frightened by that momentum.
"So, the war ends here, ok, ninjas of Konoha?"
