Chapter 26: For a good show you should stay till the end

The ferocious thunder beast wandered upon  the earth, rewriting the terrain wantonly!

A large tree with a height of more than a hundred meters with several people hugging it. They were like fragile duckweed during a flood!

(A/N -Lemnoideae is a subfamily of flowering aquatic plants, known as duckweeds, water lentils, or water lenses. They float on or just beneath the surface of still or slow-moving bodies of freshwater and wetlands)

Even the crying of despair from the ninja below had been concealed by the loud thunderous roar of the Beast!

"This, is this the true strength of Nàiluò-san?"

Uchiha Itachi avoided the area where the Kirin landed, and watched the battle from far away.

His and Shisui's battle was already over.

Itachi wanted to go to Hyuga Nàiluò and help, but Shisui stopped him.

Shisui nodded, then shook his head again:

"Even if it was an extremely dangerous situation that Nàiluò-san and I faced during a mission, I did not see Nàiluò-san really exerting all his strength!"

"This…?"

Uchiha Itachi was stunned, looking at the thunder beast raging around the battlefield.

On the battlefield ahead, the raging thunder and lightning cleared an open space of several kilometers in radius!

This Lightning Release, which can be called a forbidden level technique, plus the fierce fire Release that had just countered more than a dozen people's Great Waterfall Technique and was extinguished!

Uchiha Itachi suddenly had a ridiculous thought: Is it possible that Hyuga Nàiluò actually belongs to their Uchiha clan?

Otherwise, why are his Fire and Lightning Style so strong and overwhelming?

Ahead.

Hyuga Nàiluò, who was sure to clean up the traces, dissipated the terrifying Kirin.

The huge amount of Chakra returned to the  surrounding earth.

' These are the last few left. '

Hyuga Nàiluò cast his gaze to the four figures on the other side.

Sarutobi Shinnosuke, and three other Shinobi.

Hyuga Nàiluò stood there, quietly watching the last remaining ninja make their way towards him.

"Hyuga Nàiluò!"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke growled out, his gaze full of spite and murderous intent.

Just now, the three ninjas next to him worked together and spent a strenuous amount of effort to unsealed his blocked tenketsu points.

However, before Sarutobi Shinnosuke had been able to fight back, he saw a scene that horrified him!

Hyuga Nàiluò, who summoned the thunder beast with his hands, was like the god of thunder that bad6 descended onto the mortal world!

He who was able to mobilize his Chakra just now, could only hastily evade!

"This kind of talent, this kind of strength, this kind of ninjutsu, why is it not mine!"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke's jealousy was driving him mad.

He was jealous of talents like Hyuga Nàiluò and Hatake Kakashi!

He was jealous of the talent of the late Namikaze Minato!

Long before Namikaze Minato had become the Hokage, since the death of Konoha's White Fang Hatake Sakumo, he had been serving as an Anbu of Konoha!

However, it's all about qualifications, strength, and prestige!

He was and still is far inferior to Namikaze Minato!

Namikaze Minato was able to compete with Orochimaru of his teacher's generation for the Hokage position in his early twenties, and even be able to defeat him!

But he didn't even have the qualifications to become a Hokage candidate!

"This kind of strength shouldn't have appeared from a slave from the Hyuga branch house like you at all!"

"If I had such strength, I would already be Konoha's Hokage!"

With two frantic roars, Sarutobi Shinnosuke's depressed mood seemed to have eased up a lot.

"I'm curious, why didn't you kill me before."

Sarutobi Shinnosuke was really puzzled.

He is also an elite Jōnin.

Although he could not beat Hatake Sakumo, Namikaze Minato, Orochimaru, Hyuga Nàiluò, and Hatake Kakashi, he is still the  captain of the Anbu squad…

But with his strength he should be able to pose a little bit of a threat to Hyuga Nàiluò!

Why was Hyuga Nàiluò so dismissive of him?

"Do you think you can run away?" Hyuga Nàiluò asked rhetorically, "Of course you have to stay behind and enjoy the interesting scenes."

"As for Hokage…"

Hyuga Nàiluò smiled contemptuously and said, "If it weren't for you being Sarutobi Hiruzen's son, what would you be?"

With that level do you still dare to covet Hokage's seat?

"What nonsense are you still pretending to speak about!"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke roared with red eyes.

He hated it when someone would say that to him the most!

When someone mentions him, they would think he is the son of  the Third Hokage, not Konoha's Anbu Sarutobi Shinnosuke!

"Do you think I can't tell?" Sarutobi Shinnosuke sneered.

Hyuga Nàiluò was startled, and didn't understand what it meant.

What did he see? Is this another fantasy...

"After just using such a powerful large-scale ninjutsu, your Chakra must be running out, right?"

Seeing Hyuga Nàiluò's "speaking" expression, Sarutobi Shinnosuke became even more convinced about his theory in his heart.

This is why Sarutobi Shinnosuke now dares to stand here opposite Nàiluò.

Hyuga Nàiluò, who fought nearly a hundred Shinobi one after another and used such Chakra extensive ninjutsu, must now be exhausted!

Inside the Hokage building.

The Third Hokage and others had the same idea.

"I don't know if Shinnosuke can get rid of this scourge smoothly…"

The Third Hokage was inexplicably worried.

More than a Hundred Shinobi went there, but now there are only four left!

In order to get rid of Hyuga Nàiluò, a few of them really lost a lot of their resources this time!

"Relax, Hiruzen."

Danzo said with confidence.

"Hyuga Nàiluò's ninjutsu just now looks terrifying, but it is actually done by using natural forces."

"So, it is impossible for him to be so strong just by his own strength!"

"Moreover," Danzo continued, "Using natural forces to release ninjutsu also shows that his own Chakra is running out, so he can only use this tricky method!"

"He must die today, no one would be able to  save him!"

The Third Hokage nodded.

What Danzo said really made sense.

However, he still has inexplicable lingering feelings in his heart.

By the Naka River.

Sarutobi Shinnosuke looked at Hyuga Nàiluò's eyes, with a very angry expression.

What's with your look?

It's like teasing a child, "just you are happy"?

"No matter how much you put on airs, it's useless!"

Sarutobi Shinnosuke quickly went through his hand seals and burst out with all his remaining strength.

"I want to send you to hell with my own hands! Fire Release: Flint Yagura!"

!!!!!

A flame giant more than ten meters high took shape quickly!

This is the strongest Fire Style ninjutsu of their Sarutobi clan!

It is also Sarutobi Shinnosuke's strongest move!

"Not bad." Hyuga Nàiluò nodded slightly and commented.

Sarutobi Shinnosuke was so angry when he heard the voice of Hyuga Nàiluò as if he was a teacher teaching a student.

On the spot, control the flame giant to kill Hyuga Nàiluò!

Suddenly!

A figure passed through the flame giant and pierced at him from behind!

Hyuga Nàiluò who was surrounded by a light blue Chakra barrier, penetrated the flame giant that was more than ten meters high!

Under the rapid momentum, the flame giant was like a fragile piece of glass, being shattered into pieces!

Sarutobi Shinnosuke's pupils abruptly shrank, and almost slumped to the ground, and immediately tried to flee.

The Next second!

A cold blade was pressed against his neck!

"This is all you can do, and you still want to be the Hokage?"

Hyuga Nàiluò looked at Sarutobi Shinnosuke who almost fainted from fright, said in a disdainful tone.

boom!

The windows of the Hokage building exploded.

The Third Hokage did not go to the main entrance, but rushed out of the window at his  fastest speed!

"Danzo misunderstood! There is so much information from the analysis but, there is nothing reliable about it!"

The Third Hokage's face sank like a Boulder thrown in water, and he rushed straight to the bank of the Naka River. *
