Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Alliance
"The key to this move is stabilizing the elemental changes and delaying the explosion."
"The basic part is using the Rasengan, which is very difficult."
"Even in the Hyuga clan, few can master and use it well."
On the way back, Tsunade thought for a long time and gave her assessment.
"That's about right."
Hyuga Hitoshi wasn't surprised. He thought for a moment and shared some key points with Ushiuma.
"But the principle isn't complicated."
"Take the Rotation technique, for example. The Hyuga clan can use the Byakugan to see every part of their chakra network and release chakra from all points while spinning rapidly."
"I just fixed the Rasengan on the chakra points in the fist, which requires very precise chakra control."
"When you get back, have the clan members practice releasing chakra from the points first."
Improving the clan's strength is a long process.
Everyone's talent is different, and the time needed varies.
That's why Hyuga Hitoshi hired Orochimaru.
With him and Orochimaru, simplifying Ninjutsu and improving Gentle Fist techniques were easy. They could help the clan avoid many detours. Combined with special genetic medicine to enhance bloodline concentration, transforming the Hyuga clan wouldn't be hard.
He didn't expect everyone to learn a new technique he developed.
If they couldn't learn the full version, they could learn a simplified one.
Even using the Eight Trigrams Palm to kick out a Rasengan would be an innovation.
"By the way, can you lend me the Yin Seal to study?"
Hyuga Hitoshi's eyes lit up as he looked at Tsunade.
No man with a strong body and special abilities would refuse to let his wife stay young forever.
He always thought that if he had the chance, he would analyze the Yin Seal at a certain time and might even improve it based on the original.
"Don't look back, if you want to study it, just study it."
Tsunade clapped her hands and summoned a sealing scroll, throwing it to Hyuga Hitoshi.
Despite her carefree attitude, she hadn't forgotten that Hyuga Hitoshi saved her life. This time, she didn't follow her teacher to the front lines but stayed with Hyuga Hitoshi for her own reasons.
She came out to completely overcome her fear of blood and to help save lives.
If she had an episode with her teacher, she would be a burden and wouldn't be of any use.
But with Patriarch Hitoshi, she could overcome these problems with peace of mind because she knew that even if she fell behind, this man wouldn't leave her behind.
It was a strange feeling, as if this man was the only one in Konohagakure she could trust. Her intuition told her to stay close to him.
It was quite absurd.
But now wasn't the time to think about these things. She would give the Yin Seal to Hyuga Hitoshi as a way to repay him for saving her life.
"By the way, the number of enemies we encountered seems off."
Back at the base.
With her keen experience, Tsunade noticed something strange.
She had been through the Second Ninja World War and admitted that Hyuga Hitoshi's plan was good, but in such large-scale wars, there weren't many opportunities to surround and attack small enemy units.
And the number of reinforcements from the enemy was also very small.
"They're concentrating their forces."
After a brief thought, Tsunade's expression became serious. She could only think of this possibility.
Considering the long journey of Iwagakure Village to the Land of Fire and Kumogakure Village wanting a quick victory, if Nara Shikaku lost, Raikage and Tsuchikage would likely gather all their scattered forces and push towards Konohagakure.
"A big battle is coming."
Hyuga Hitoshi said calmly.
This was a disaster Konohagakure couldn't avoid. When the two ninja villages entered the Land of Fire, a bloody frontal battle was inevitable. When they pointed their swords at Konohagakure, they had to stand in front, and any strategy would have little effect.
If Konohagakure held on, it didn't mean the war would end, just that they had a chance to fight again.
If they couldn't hold on, the village would be gone, and the Land of Fire might be destroyed!
But this didn't concern him much. As a member of Konohagakure, he had done his best.
With this in mind, Hyuga Hitoshi gave another order.
"Tell the clan members to clean up those small fry as quickly as possible and then rest. The time to use our advantage is running out."
"What did you say?!"
In the heart of the Land of Fire, the remnants of the main battlefield had been cleaned up, and the ninja alliance of Kumogakure Village and Iwagakure Village was resting.
In the temporary command post of Kumogakure Village, a loud roar suddenly erupted.
"Since you gave the order, our elite squads searching for supplies have started returning."
"And my squad was not far from where Yugito was, but we haven't heard from her."
Raikage's secretary Mabui, standing beside the sixteen-year-old Samui, who was already capable of handling things on her own, calmly said.
"After noticing something was wrong, I took some time to find a witness."
Samui frowned, her tone filled with confusion and doubt.
"According to the witnesses, Yugito's team encountered Tsunade-hime from the Land of Fire in the town. But for some reason, Tsunade-hime couldn't use her full strength. Just as Yugito was about to capture her, a handsome male ninja arrived and captured Yugito instead."
As one of Yugito's few close friends in Kumogakure Village, Samui knew how strong Yugito was, so she didn't believe that a man could capture her so easily.
How could an ordinary man defeat Yugito, a Jinchuriki?
But the witness passed the test and didn't lie, which made it very interesting.
"The witness said that the man's eyes were sometimes blue and sometimes white. After punching Yugito away, he turned into a fireball and knocked her out."
Blue and white?
Fireball?
Raikage was stunned, then seemed to realize something. He didn't know about blue eyes, but he knew about white eyes, and he knew Tsunade.
"Long hair? Wearing a robe?"
Uh...
Samui raised an eyebrow, thought for a moment, and then nodded.
"Then it must be someone from the Hyuga clan."
Raikage's frown finally relaxed, and a hint of excitement appeared on his face.
If Yugito was really defeated by someone from the Hyuga clan, wouldn't that prove that the Byakugan was not only strong in scouting but also in actual combat?
Didn't Samui say the eyes were sometimes blue and sometimes white?
No matter how strong ordinary Taijutsu was, could it be stronger than a Jinchuriki with a Tailed Beast's cloak?
The move used to defeat Yugito was definitely not the Gentle Fist!
He had never heard of anyone using the Gentle Fist on a Tailed Beast.
He had underestimated the strategic value of the Byakugan!
Thinking about it, Raikage's eyes flashed, and he slapped the table and stood up.
"Pass my order! Everyone, follow me and attack Konohagakure from the flank! Move out immediately!"
No more waiting!
If that old man Oonoki found out how powerful the Byakugan was, would he still let Kumogakure Village take the lead?
Absolutely not!
Dodging Raikage's spit as he shouted, Mabui was stunned.
Wasn't it not yet time for the agreed-upon attack?
After thinking for a moment, she seemed to understand Raikage's thoughts, then nodded and went to pass the order.
But Raikage didn't know.
At this moment, on the other flank of the allied camp, Oonoki was leading his men forward with a sneer.
"Raikage doesn't know how powerful the Sharingan is. Whatever I ask for now, he gives. Who knows if he'll change his mind?"
Oonoki never relied on others to give him what he wanted!
He would take it himself!
Who had the patience to wait until the agreed time?
Why not seize the opportunity and attack Konohagakure directly now?
His informants in the Land of Fire had already told him that the Uchiha clan had been ordered to move to the outskirts of the village because of the Nine-Tails incident. He even had a map!
When it came to gaining benefits, the quick ones always got them, and the slow ones didn't!
Taking a deep breath, Oonoki raised his arm and shouted.
"Speed up, head straight for the Uchiha clan's territory!"
The Uchiha clan?
The Hyuga clan next to the new Uchiha territory?
Oonoki wanted them all!
