Chapter 256: Watergate's Decision
"Boom!"
After forcing the Nine-Tails back again, Chiba and Jiraiya retreated back to their places at the same time, constantly gasping slightly.
As time passed, Chiba and Jiraiya's chakras finally began to run out.
And at this moment, Konoha's reinforcements finally arrived.
"Secret Technique: Hypermultiplication Technique!"
Ding Zuo roared and pressed the Nine-Tails to the ground, and right next to Ding Zuo, Lu Jiu and Hai Yi, who were not surprised, also rushed to the battlefield.
"Everyone, listen to my command, prepare for the fire bomb, and attack in unison."
In an instant, Haiichi connected his spirit to all the Konoha ninjas present.
With the issuance of Haiyi's order, countless Konoha ninjas quickly unified their actions, and in an instant, countless flame bullets flew up at the same time and smashed heavily on the Nine-Tails.
"Boom!"
With the unified cooperation, the combat effectiveness that the Konoha ninjas can exert has finally improved, and it can cause a little delay and hindrance to the Nine-Tails.
And thanks to the support of the Konoha ninja, Chiba and Jiraiya finally had a moment of respite.
While replying to Chakra, Chiba wondered, "What's the matter, why is the water gate so slow." ”
And just as Chiba's words fell, Mizumon finally came to the battlefield with a temporary sealing team.
"Sorry, I'm late." While wiping the sweat door, he said helplessly: "No way, there are very few ninjas who can seal the technique, and many of them are performing tasks outside, so the number of people who can make up is very small." ”
Saying that, the water gate dispatched the ninjas to prepare.
"These numbers are actually a bit reluctant, because there are not enough people, and the operation that originally took less than ten minutes to prepare may be delayed to more than twenty minutes."
"Twenty minutes..."
Hearing Shuimen's estimate of time, Chiba frowned slightly: "It feels a little troublesome, but you should be able to give it a try." ”
Chiba, who had recovered some of the chakras again, rushed forward again as she spoke.
"Tu Dun, Tuliu River!"
And Zilai also followed up again: "Fire Escape, Toad Oil Flame Bomb!" ”
After a long battle, Chiba and Jiraiya retreated again.
"Looks like it should be fine, as long as we alternate with the Konoha Legion, we should be able to delay the Nine-Tails until twenty minutes later."
In this way, Chiba and Jiraiya took turns to control the Nine-Tails.
However, only ten minutes later, a problem arose on Konoha's side.
That is, the ninjas of Konoha are not enough chakra.
It doesn't matter if the upper ninja is still there, but a large number of middle ninja who are the main force are beginning to chakra seriously insufficient.
In ordinary battles, even the upper ninja is usually based on physical arts, and ninjutsu is only used to win when necessary.
As for the middle ninja, the situation faced by most people can only support a few ninjutsu.
Now, however, after several rounds of attacks in a row, they have consumed most of their chakra.
In this way, it became a problem to expect them to be able to effectively control the Nine-Tails.
"Damn, you can't let the Nine-Tails move forward, everyone follow me!"
Countless Konoha ninjas rushed towards the Nine-Tails like ants, and the only thing they could do was to use their lives to buy time for the water gate.
"Bang!"
The vast majority of ninjas were almost killed by the Nine-Tails with one blow, but they did use this method to stop the Nine-Tails.
Seeing this scene, Shuimen silently gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
"Boom!"
This time, without enough containment, a tailed beast jade shot out from the mouth of the nine tails, smashing heavily into a corner of the village, and suddenly countless fires rose into the sky.
"Damn..."
Watergate gritted his teeth again, and then his eyes became determined.
"Chiba, Jiraiya-sensei, wait a minute, you help me control the Nine-Tails, I have a technique that should be able to solve it."
"There's a technique..."Jiraiya's eyes instantly became surprised: "Water Gate, do you want to..."
"That's right, that's probably the only technique that can solve the current problem."
"But..."Cold sweat began to fall on Jiraiya's forehead, and the thought of the consequences of that technique made Jiraiya's heart ache.
And Chiba also frowned: "Wait for the water gate, you won't use the ghoul to seal that technique, the price of this technique... I don't think it's time yet. ”
Glancing at the battlefield in the distance, Chiba analyzed: "At the moment, the ninjas of Konoha are still very effective in delaying the Nine-Tails, plus the rotation of me and Jiraiya Sensei, there is no problem in surviving these ten minutes..."
Before Chiba could finish speaking, Mizuto interrupted him.
"I know..."
As he spoke, Shuimen looked into the distance, looking at the continuous sacrifice of life and death, with a hint of relief and emotion in his eyes.
"Perhaps, as you say, they can do this, but at what cost? If you're really waiting for ten minutes, I'm afraid there won't be many people left here, so..."
However, hearing this, Chiba frowned again, stretched out his hand to stop the water gate that was about to act, and Chiba dissuaded: "Believe me, to be honest, even if all the nearly a thousand people present here die here, it is not as important as you to Konoha, your role on the battlefield is not comparable to these people, and the time it takes for Konoha to cultivate a strong person of your level again is not what these people can..."
"I know... However, human life is not measurable in terms of value. ”
Smiling helplessly, Mizumon ordered all the Konoha ninjas to retreat.
"Each of those people has a family behind them waiting for them to go back, they also have wives and parents and children waiting for them, and I..."
Speaking of this, Mizumon's eyes darkened slightly for a moment, obviously thinking of Jiu Sinai.
"There's no reason why my life is nobler than theirs, and there's no reason why they can give their lives for Konoha and I can't as a shadow."
As he spoke, the water gate disappeared in an instant, and then took Kushina and Naruto to the battlefield.
"I'm sorry Kushina, I think I might have to make a decision that makes you hate me..."
Looking at Mizumon's final and continuous explanation to Kushina, Chiba's mood was slightly complicated.
Obviously, in addition to the reasons that Watergate said, Jiu Xinnai's near-death state due to the separation of human pillar force is also one of the important reasons why Watergate made up his mind.
For Watergate, the most important thing in his life was about to leave, and he wanted to go with her, not wanting to endure the pain of loneliness alone.
Soon, Mizumon, who had finished explaining to Kushina, took Naruto towards the Nine-Tails.
"It's up to you, Chiba, Jiraiya-sensei."
Slightly complicated and finally glanced at the water gate, Chiba instantly opened the three doors of the eight Dunjia, and with the help of the suddenly extra part of the chakra, Chiba used up the last chakra and formed a few seals.
"Earth Escape, Earth Mountain Technique!"
Suddenly, the Nine-Tails were caught in the middle by two small earth mountains that suddenly rose from the ground, and at this moment, a flying thunder god from the Water Gate came to the side of the Nine-Tails.
"Mystic Ghoul Seal!"
A Phantom of Death, which was difficult for ordinary people to see, suddenly appeared behind the Water Gate, and quickly grabbed his hands towards the Nine-Tails.
