I Punch the Tailed Beast Ball

”Report, an unknown person is approaching.”

Shinobi, who was using a binocular to observe the surroundings, suddenly found a black shadow flashing past and quickly warned everyone.

The other Shinobi who was responsible for observing quickly looked for the unknown person his companion was talking about, was it an enemy? or was it an animal that accidentally broke in?

However, the Shinobi who was responsible for observing quickly put down the binocular. There was no need to look around anymore, because the enemy was already in front of them.

It was a girl whose body was enveloped with blue Chakra rushing towards the sentry tower.

Rumble!!!

The strong chakra behind the girl burst out, directly destroying the wooden pillars used to support the sentry tower, causing the sentry tower to collapse.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

The three Konoha’s Shinobi on duty on the sentry tower jumped out one after another, and at the same time, they took out their Kunai to attack the girl.

However, what the three of them did not expect was that the girl’s arm suddenly turned into a lump of red Chakra, and not only did it easily block their attacks, it also directly sent them flying.

The pupils of the other Shinobi in the sentry post instantly shrank. This malicious power was a Tailed-Beast’s power!

”Run! That’s Kumogakure Shinobi’s Jinchuriki. We have to inform Shikaku-sama that Kumogakure Shinobi’s Jinchuriki has arrived on the battlefield.” The Shinobi, who was in charge of the sentry post, directly ordered.

The sentry wouldn’t last that long against a Jinchuriki and Kumogakure’s Shinobi, who might be hiding lurking around. It was better to escape and relay this information. This place was not far from Konoha’s camp.

Seeing the Konoha’s Shinobi was trying to escape, the girl dispersed her beast-like arms and called out Kumogakure’s troops behind it.

”Don’t let them escape and relay this information.” A Kumogakure Shinobi Jonin quickly shouted.

Hearing Kumogakure Shinobi’s words, Konoha’s Shinobi couldn’t help but run even faster. However, the pursuing Kumogakure Shinobi was not to be underestimated. They were good at Taijutsu, so they were very fast.

The Shinobi who was in charge of the sentry saw Kumogakure Shinobi getting closer and closer. He gritted his teeth and shouted: ”Everyone else aside from Kengo, hold back the Kumogakure Shinobi with me!”

Kengo was the fastest among them, so he had the highest chance of relaying the information.

The current situation was very bad. If they continued to escape, they might all die under Kumogakure Shinobi’s pursuit, unable to relay the information.

Therefore, this Shinobi was prepared to risk his and his men’s lives to make sure that the information was successfully relayed.

After the other three Shinobi heard their leader’s command, they decisively turned around and drew their weapons to fight Kumogakure Shinobi.

On the other hand, Kengo rushed to Konoha’s camp as fast as he could without looking back. It was not that he was cold or timid, but he could not waste his teammates’ sacrifice. Even if he looked back, it would be a huge waste.

Facing of dozens of Kumogakure Shinobi, the four Konoha Shinobi quickly fell into a disadvantage!

Their leader glanced back and noticed that Kengo was no longer seen, so Kumogakure Shinobi shouldn’t be able to catch up with him.

”Although I die, you will pay for your actions. Konoha will defeat Kumogakure.” The leader laughed.

However, Kumogakure Shinobi revealed a strange smile and said, ”Do you really think we can’t stop five of you?”

”Don’t talk too much, Yoshino! Hurry up and kill them!” Yugito frowned when she saw Yoshino taunt the Konoha Shinobi.

Although these Konoha Shinobi would die soon, the Yugito still felt that Yoshino was doing unnecessary thing. Their well-thought plan might fail because of Yoshino said too much.

Although Kumogakure was full of muscle-brained men, it was not like everyone there shared this trait. She knew that it was unrealistic to stall Konoha’s main force with only a few Shinobi.

Kumogakure came up with a plan to send their Two-Tails Jinchuriki to Yugakure and ordered her to make a scene, giving Konoha the impression that Kumogakure’s main force was in Yugakure.

It might seem like Kumogakure Shinobi were trying to take out Konoha’s sentry to prevent them from relaying this information, but they actually wanted the sentries to relay this information.

Kumogakure wanted Konoha to know that Yugito had arrived on the battlefield and thought that Kumogakure’s main force had just arrived in Yugakure.

Because the Two-Tails’ Jinchuriki was still young, and Two-Tails itself was not that strong compared to other Tailed-Beasts, they were a bit lacking in strength. Even if she joined Kumogakure’s main force, she could not become as reliable as Killer B.

Even though she would be somewhat useful in the main force, she would be more useful as a bait in Yugakure.

As a Hidden Village’s military force, Jinchuriki would not casually enter the battlefield. If they came, it basically meant that the Hidden Village had to go all out and attack without holding back.

Even if Yugito did not make a move, blasting a Tailed Beast Jade also served as a deterring effect to Konoha.

”Why are you being so cautious? They are already dead anyway.” Yoshino said as he casually killed a Konoha Shinobi.

He felt that the Yugito was making a big deal out of nothing. Besides, the dead could not talk, so what if he blabbered the whole plan to them?

Yoshino had always been a little dissastisfied with the Fourth Raikage’s decision to promote the 13-year-old Yugito into Jonin as he had diligently fought for Kumogakure for twenty years before he was promoted to Jonin.

Yet Yugito was promoted to Jonin by relying on his Tailed-Beast’s strength. And for the record, Yugito did not even participate in the Third Shinobi World War.

”I will report this matter to Fourth-sama.” Yugito said as he noticed that there was no trace of regret in Yoshino’s words.

”Up to you.” Hearing Yugito’s nag, Yoshino clearly seemed irritated. Raikage’s iron fist was not something ordinary people could handle, but Yoshino did not want to lower his head in front of Yugito, so he remained stubborn. He did not do anything to apologize and admit his mistake.

”Yoshino-sama, apart from the escaping Shinobi earlier, all of Konoha’s Shinobi have already been dealt with.” A Kumogakure Shinobi reported.

”Since we’re done here, let’s leave at once. We have done enough. Doing more will only make it suspicious.” Yugito ordered.

Although he had just had a little disagreement with Yugito, Yoshino also understood what was right and what was wrong, so he did not raise any objections.

If it were just a taunt, the Fourth Raikage would at most glare at him and punch him, but if the plan failed during the war, the Fourth Raikage would probably tear him apart.

...

After receiving the news that the sentry was attacked by a Jinchuriki, Minato quickly led the team and went to the sentry with Shikaku Nara.

Minato stood in front of the collapsed sentry tower ruins. He was lost in thought before saying: ”This powerful and violent Chakra is the Chakra of a Tailed-Beast.”

Although Minato was not a Sensory Shinobi, his perception ability was very outstanding.

Ordinary people’s Chakra wasn’t that different from others, but a particular Chakra such as Senjut Chakra and Tailed-Beasts’ Chakra were stronger than ordinary Chakra.

Because Kushina was Nine-Tails’ Jinchuriki, Minato was quite familiar with the Chakra of a Tailed-Beast.

The Chakra of each Tailed-Beast might be slightly different, they were more or less the same in nature.

”I didn’t expect Kumogakure to actually employ this strategy. It’s hard to say now.” Shikaku Nara was lost in thought.

At first, he thought that their force in Yugakure was just a diversion, and their main force would be in Tsukigakure.

However, Kumogakure had already dispatched their Jinchuriki to Yugakure now. If they really wanted to attack Konoha from Tsukigakure, it didn’t make sense to send their Jinchuriki to Yugakure.

And wasn’t this a little too much of a coincidence? He had just guessed that Kumogakure might be trying to plan a diversion, but a Jinchuriki’s sudden attack on the sentry was a bit suspicious.

”Could it be that Kumogakure Shinobi is doing this on purpose? So that we think that their main force is elsewhere, leading to the shortage of personnel here, and they will launch a large scale attack from here?” Shikaku Nara guessed.

”Shikaku, you don’t have to worry about that. If they send Two-Tails’ Jinchuriki, I will personally lead our force to find their camp tomorrow. Moreover, even if their main force really is in Tsukigakure, it will be fine. Our trump card is guarding that place. ”Minato said with a relaxed smile.

Minato was confident of winning n this war against Kumogakure.

Konoha had many skilled Shinobi who could supress Tailed-Beasts, such as the Third Hokage, Tsunade, Orochimaru, Fugaku Uchiha, and Nagasawa.

Kumogakure thought they had an advantage in this war?

Minato felt that currently Konoha was stronger than during the Third Shinobi World War.

Even in the Third Shinobi World War, Konoha could fight against other Four Shinobi Great Countries and emerged as the winner. So could Kumogakure really beat Konoha even though Konoha was stronger now than during the Third Shinobi World War?

”Is it Assistant Nagasawa? If he is there, we can indeed rest easy.” Shikaku nodded after hearing Minato’s words.

Because Nagasawa’s reputation suddenly skyrocketed out of nowhere, Shikaku was still not used to it.

With Nagasawa guarding on Tsukigakure’s border, it would not matter even if Kumogakure attacked from Tsukigakure.

After all, the reason why Nagasawa only brought a few Shinobi with him was because Nagasawa’s strength alone surpassed a whole battalion of Shinobi’s.

The next day.

Minato personally led a ten-man elite force and a Jonin from Hyuga Clan into Yugakure’s border.

With Hyuga Clan’s Byakugan and Minato’s outstanding perception ability, they successfully found a team consisted of twenty Shinobi hiding in the forest.

Xiu! Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!

Three Flying Thunder God Kunai instantly appeared in Minato’s hand and he immediately threw them at Kumogakure Shinobi.

Hearing Kunai’s sound, Kumogakure Shinobi instantly dispersed to avoid the Kunai. Aside from one Shinobi who was too slow to react and got hit by the Kunai, everyone else managed to dodge.

However, Minato did not actually throw his Kunai to hit the enemy. He simply threw it near his enemy.

”Enemy attack on the south! Everyone, be careful.” Toroi shouted. This was the team he led. The team was comprised of Chunin, and they were not weak. His team was one of the strongest teams among the dispatched teams in Kumogakure.

However, before Kumogakure Shinobi could react, a yellow figure suddenly appeared!

Minato had already used Rasengan before he used Flying Thunder God Technique and teleported next to the Kumogakure Shinobi.

Rasengan’s essence was a compressed and constantly rotating Chakra, which was inspired from Tailed-Beast Ball.

Therefore, although Rasengan was only a palm-sized Technique, it packed a devastating power.

Rumble!!

The compressed Chakra ball that was constantly rotating in all directions hit Kumogakure Shinobi’s body. The powerful power penetrated Kumogakure Shinobi’s abdomen, and all his internal organs were destroyed. The Kumogakure Shinobi fell to the ground and died immediately.

”It’s Fourth Hokage. Everyone, be careful of the Kunai he threw! He can teleport to the Kunai at any time.” Toroi reminded his men.

Minato’s prowess in the battlefield was no secret, and many of Kumogakure Shinobi became Minato’s stepping stone, including the A-B duo.

At the beginning of the Third Shinobi World War, Kumogakure’s new A-B duo appeared out of nowhere and defeated a large number of well-known Shinobi, which made them rose to fame.

And right when their reputation skyrocketed, Minato surprised the world by fighting the A-B duo to a draw. In an instant, the prestige and fame that the A-B duo had accumulated was redirected to Minato.

Therefore, Kumogakure Shinobi had carefully studied Minato, and his specialty, which was Flying Thunder God Technique, was naturally the focus of people’s research.

However, because Flying Thunder God was too powerful, the more Kumogakure Shinobi analyzed, the more they felt that this Ninjutsu was ridiculously strong. All they could do was minding the position of the Kunai, and there were not many ways to deal with it.

If there was a way to deal with Minato’s Flying Thunder God Technique, then Kumogakure Shinobi would not specifically allowed their Shinobi to retreat and give up on the mission if they met Minato.

Against a fast Shinobi like Minato, you’d have to be stronger than him or you died.

After saying that, Toroi quickly fired a signal bullet into the sky, then threw out a pile of square-shaped Shuriken that had been magnetized, allowing him to control those Shuriken freely.

He was the strongest here, so he naturally had to deal with Minato.

”I have to commend him for his bravery even though he is an enemy.” Minato said with a smile, and then took out ten Flying Thunder God Kunai from his pouch and threw them at Toroi.
