Chapter Seventy-Three: Roots

On the huge battlefield, the sand and dust flew and swirled, and when it slammed on the huge tailed beast, it was like the waves crashing against the reef, setting off a wave of qi. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The head of the bull is the eight tails of the octopus, quietly looking at the nine tails in front of him who are roaring with their teeth in anger.

And then...... Straighten your right hand, give a thumbs up, and slowly point your thumb toward the ground.

"Eight~Ga~" It dragged out its tone, and its tone was as mocking as possible.

The nine-tailed demon fox, which had been completely controlled by the wild, naturally couldn't bear such an insult, and it rushed in front of the eight-tails with a dash and waved its claws.

"Oye!" The moment the Nine-Tails flicked its claws, the Eight-Tails was ready to grab its arm. He firmly grasped the hand of the Nine-Tails, and then twisted his lower body. It was a perfect over-the-shoulder throw, and the huge red fox was thrown out and smashed hard to the ground.

Before the fox could get up, he was pressed to the ground by the pursuing Eight-Tails.

"Haha...... You stupid fox!" pressed the nine-tailed demon fox to the ground, and smashed his huge fist down one by one. The Nine-Tailed Demon Fox instinctively dodged the Eight-Tails' attacks, but its skull had been shattered by the Eight-Tails' successive heavy punches.

The eight tails of the Nine-Tails slapped the back of the Eight-Tails fiercely, but it seemed to have no effect.

At this time, the nine-tails are like a girl who has been pressed to the ground, blocking the invasion of the strong man with her weak fists.

"Hahaha! I've always wanted to do this!" The fat eight-tailed was so excited that it seemed to never tire of dropping its fists one after another.

Under the rain of fists, Nine-Tails' eyes widened to the extreme, blood streaming down its sharp teeth. It was so angry that it grew its mouth, and it bit down Yao's hand.

"Oh, you bad fox!" Eight-tails punched Nine-Tails in the jaw, but despite this, Nine-Tails bit off a large piece of flesh from Eight-Tails' hand.

Boom! Not caring about the injury, Yao slammed his injured hand on the Nine-Tails' cheek, his wound squirming like jelly, and it probably won't be long before it heals.

The Nine-Tails, who had been beaten crooked under Ya-Tails, suddenly spat out a crimson ray, and it shot at Ya-Tails' chest, almost knocking them out. Soon, the eight-tailed who reacted roared angrily, bending the nine-tails' cervical vertebrae, so the red ray, slicing across the earth, left a deep ravine in the ground and shot into the distance.

Boom! Eight-tails slammed another punch into Nine-Tails' face, scattering its condensed tailed beast jade.

At this time, the Nine-Tails, who had found an opportunity, struggled to climb out of the Eight-Tails' control, but the Nine-Tails grabbed one of the Nine-Tails' tails and pulled the Nine-Tails back.

It held down Nine-Tails' neck with one hand, preventing its sharp teeth from biting into itself, while wrapping its eight tails around Nine-Tails' limbs.

"Hey, got you!"

Holding the neck of the Nine-Tails in one hand, the Eight-Tails wrapped their tentacles around the Nine-Tails' whole body like an octopus predator.

Another huge tailed beast jade was generated in the mouth of the nine-tailed, and after grazing the head of the eight-tailed sideways, it flew into the sky.

"Gather the Seal Ninjas, stupid! bastard!"

"Yunyin Village will soon have one more pillar force!"

"Hmph! That guy from the Eight Tails is really confident enough!" In the red fence, the Nine Tails looked at the black spread excitedly, "As long as Lao Tzu goes out, you must look good!

The talisman in the center of the red fence is being eroded!

But...... Soon, blue thunder filled the entire fence, and the Nine-Tails, who had put his hand in the center of the fence, was hit by the electric shock and howled!

"Yun Ninja!

In the middle of the battlefield, the cloud ninjas used scrolls to entangle the body of the nine tails, and blazing thunder light jumped out from the black runes of the scrolls, forming a sacred and huge pattern.

"Darui!" shouted the Eight-Tails, who was still controlling the Nine-Tails with his hands.

"Yes, Mistress Chidara!"

"Get ready to be the next person in Yunyin Village. ā€

The thunder of the scrolls spread, and they spread like chains to the ground, forming a huge pattern of leaping arcs, and Darui was standing in the center of the pattern.

The lightning flickered, the lightning condensed into chains and pulled, and the crimson-tailed beast Chakra approached Darui in the center of the pattern little by little.

But at this moment, a fierce wind blew in the battlefield, and the flying sand obscured Yun Shinobi's vision.

Through the smoke and dust, Eight-Tails saw a figure standing on Nine-Tails' body.

In an instant, huge trees spread along the body of the Nine-Tails, piercing the scroll that encased the Nine-Tails, and the Nine-Tails' body was gradually dissipating.

Finally, the Nine-Tails turned into a red misty light, and the unconscious Naruto fell into the sky, quickly caught by the figure.

"How could I let you escape!" Yao swung his fist, only to find that his fist seemed to pierce through the phantom, and the back that was gradually becoming clear in the dust was moving away.

He was very fast and fled far away at once.

The black tailed beast jade condensed in front of the mouth of the eight tails, and the eight tails shot out the tailed beast jade, and he saw the tailed beast jade accurately hit the back of the man, only to find that the person actually appeared in another place.

Finally, the man disappeared with Naruto at the junction of the sea and the sky, and the eight-tails snorted and retreated from the tailed beast state.

"Master Chidara!" Having lost the center of the thunder pattern, Darui bowed slightly.

"It seems that you can only wait for the next time you become a human pillar. Chidara said with a smile.

"When we are not without gain. Darui looked over Chidara and replied with a smile. Chidara turned around and saw none other than Konoha Ninja Yamato, who was unconscious.

I don't know how long it took, Naruto woke up from his nightmare. In that dream he killed a lot of people, of course...... In reality, too. He shook his head to refresh himself, and when he looked up, he saw the back of an old man in the red sunset at the mouth of the cave.

"Are you awake?"

The old man turned around, and Naruto saw a stubborn face with an X-shaped scar on his chin.

"Old man, you saved me?"

"Of course"

"Thank you!"

Naruto struggled to get up from the ground, but fell to the ground again.

"Where are you going, Naruto Uzumaki?"

"You...... Know my name?"

The old man in a black kimono nodded slightly.

"Are you a Konoha ninja?"

"Of course I am. ā€

"Then can you take me to Kakashi Hachiki?"

"No, you can't join the battlefield just yet, that's what Kakashi agreed. ā€

"Kakashi-sensei agreed?Old man, what do you want me to do?"

"Naruto Uzumaki, have you ever truly recognized yourself and understood your mission?"

"Mission!" Naruto looked confused.

The old man walked slowly from the sunlight into the shadows.

"You are the son of the Shinobi Village, the son of the fourth generation of Hokage Wave Feng Shuimon, and more importantly, you are the child of fate in the prophecy of Myoki Mountain. ā€

Child of Destiny!

This is the second time Naruto has been called that, and the first person to call him that way was Yagamiki. The man who brought this war and cholera was like my brother.

"The Toad Immortal of Myoki Mountain once said that a young ninja would change the direction of the ninja world, and that ninja would be born among Jiraiya's apprentices. ā€

"Now that Watergate is dead, you are the only one who can be called his disciple. ā€

"You don't seem surprised, have you already told you?"

"Then, you have to take responsibility and save Konoha from this quagmire of war. ā€

"Of course I will!" Naruto clenched his fists.

"Come with me, then!" the old man slowly turned and walked towards the entrance of the cave. Naruto followed him until he walked out of the cave, and Naruto was stunned by what he saw.

It's a huge basin, and the mouth of the cave is on the rock wall of that basin. As far as the eye can see, the basin is full of **** rocks, green plants grow strangely on the rocks, like green moss growing from the soil lesions, and wisps of water flow powerlessly on this land.

"What kind of place is this!" Naruto asked.

"This was once called the Valley of the End, where it all began. The old man in black replied. He turned slightly and looked at Naruto with his eyes exposed outside the bandage, "In the coming days, you will practice under my guidance and master the power of the Tailed Beast." When the time comes, I'll let you rejoin the battlefield and fight for Konoha. ā€

"Who are you?" asked Naruto confusedly.

"The old man's name is Shimura Danzo. ā€
