Naruto's Dark Dawn

Chapter 157 New opponent
"Go and make final preparations, we have a new mission."

After Chiba briefly practiced with a few people for two days to adapt, Minato suddenly began to let them prepare.

"New mission, what mission?" Lu Jiu and the others asked in confusion.

Mentioning the new task, a trace of solemnity flashed across Minato's face.

"According to reliable information, because the battle is not going well, Iwanin has decided to put a Jinchuriki on the battlefield."

Hearing this, Lu Jiu also became serious, thinking about something helplessly.

"So, the opponent we might have to deal with is Jinchuriki?"

"That's right, our current strength is really insufficient. Apart from us, it seems that there are not many ninjas who can perform this kind of mission."

Chiba understands what Minato said slightly.

Although, in the later battle where Nine Tails attacked Konoha, Minato did not seem to be Nine Tails' opponent.

But that situation was entirely because behind him was Ninja Village, and he was dragged down.

What's more, with the strong fighting power of the nine tails, it is far superior to other tailed beasts. Later, Naruto even used half of the nine tails in his body to fight against the seven tailed beasts except the eight tails, which is enough to see the tyranny of the nine tails.

In fact, apart from the other tailed beasts of Nine-Tails and Eight-Tails, it didn't take much effort for the Kage-level powerhouses of Akatsuki's organization to catch them.

Of course, no matter what, it was also Jinchuriki, a steady kage-level combat power, at least in this period of time, there were only a handful of people in the ninja world who could deal with this kind of thing.

And Chiba and Minato's team is undoubtedly one of the few.

Whether it's the sansho fish in Chiba or the giant toad in Minato, their huge size is a sharp weapon against tailed beasts.

There is also the transfer effect of Minato's time-space barrier and its own high mobility, which are also enough to remain invincible in the battle with the tailed beast.

Coupled with a good sealing technique, Minato can be called an expert in dealing with tailed beasts.

The pig deer and butterfly trio also often have amazing performances when dealing with tailed beasts, which can fully make up for Minato's lack of lethality.

Therefore, it is also very reasonable for Jilai to send them to deal with the tailed beasts.

Suddenly, Ding Zuo thought of something.

"By the way, since the other party has used the tail beast, shouldn't we also use it?"

Lu Jiu and Hai Yi gave Ding Zuo a hard look at the same time, and Ding Zuo also noticed his slip of the tongue, and stopped his words wisely.

After Minato was silent for a moment, a sternness suddenly flashed across his face that had been wearing a faint smile, and then his eyes became firm.

"It's nothing, I will never give the other party a chance to force us to use Renzhuli, I will solve them with my own hands."

At this moment, Qianye clearly felt the unprecedented fighting spirit in Minato.

Of course Chiba understands that Minato is fighting to protect Kushina.

In fact, not all jinjuriki will be known by anyone, and many renjuriki have no one even know they are renjuriki before they go to the battlefield for the first time.

Especially for a person like Konoha who has complete technology and will not cause too much harm to others as he grows up, it is difficult for ordinary people to detect.

Konoha's protection measures in this area are actually pretty good. On the one hand, it is to give people a better living environment and increase their sense of belonging to the village. On the other hand, the more important thing is probably to keep secrets, so as to facilitate the protection of Jinchuriki And enhance the surprise effect of Renzhuli on the battlefield.

And once the battle is over, Kushina's identity as Jinchuriki will naturally be impossible to conceal, and when she imagines that she will be pregnant with Naruto later, it will be impossible to wander leisurely in the street and chat with ordinary people. , the fear of Jinzhuriki is the same in any ninja village, she will no longer be able to live a normal life.

Therefore, Minato doesn't want Kushina to go to the battlefield unless it is absolutely necessary. I'm afraid this is also the motivation for Minato to continue to struggle and become stronger.

Looking at Minato whose eyes were full of fighting spirit, Qianye was slightly touched for a moment, and his eyes began to become slightly complicated.

Suddenly, he also missed Xiao Nan a little bit.

"correct."

Chiba suddenly thought of another question.

"Have you found out how many Jinchurikis the other party is going to send this time?"

"Five tails, if there is no accident, it should be a five-tailed Jinzhu Lihan."

"Five tails?"

Qianye was slightly taken aback, then laughed.

"laugh--"

"Huh? What's the matter Chiba?"

Minato, Lujiu and the others looked at Qianye suspiciously, this was the first time they saw Qianye smile in the past few days, although this smile was full of coldness.

Qianye shook her head slightly: "Hehe, it's nothing, I just thought of something very interesting."

Looking at Chiba with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, Minato and the others were a little confused, and Chiba didn't intend to explain too much.

The incident many years ago has been brought up again by Qianye from the bottom of his heart.

He has already avenged Hanzo's revenge, and the saying that Hanzo killed others because he fought for the Land of Rain really made him unable to hate him.

Then the only thing he can hate is Wuwei.

At night, on an unknown hillside, Chiba and Sanshoyu sat together looking at the moon in the sky.

In fact, Ifuku was somewhat dissatisfied with Chiba's betrayal of Hanzo's entrustment, but he did not disobey orders.

Being human, it actually feels that some things cannot be blamed on Chiba and the others.

"Ibuku, can you tell me about Hanzo's beating of the five tails?"

Jingfu shook his head lazily, and a flash of human memory flashed in his eyes.

"That battle was indeed one of the most difficult battles I have ever fought. At that time, in order to suppress Iwa Ninja, it proved that Yu Ninja also possesses the power comparable to that of Tailed Beast, so as to deter countries from letting them use it indiscriminately. Tailed Beast, Hanzo fought desperately, and finally even used a forbidden technique."

"In the end, we almost killed the opponent's Jinchuriki at that stop, but it was a pity that we were rescued by others later, and Hanzo was also seriously injured, at least ten ribs were broken. Although it was very dangerous, Hanzo said that stop was It's worth it, at least with this Renzhu Riki who was almost killed as an example, the ninja villages are full of fear about investing Renzhu Riki in the Land of Rain."

After listening to the tragic battle in Ibukuchi, Qianye was silent for a long time, and then sighed softly: "Although we were enemies, I really admire him from the bottom of my heart. He is indeed a remarkable person."

Hearing Chiba mentioning Hanzo again, Ibuku turned his face unconsciously, and after a while, a huge teardrop fell with a thud. He and Hanzo grew up together, and after many battles, the relationship between them is indeed Unimaginable to outsiders.

And Qianye also thought of Xiaonan and Nagato again, and the loneliness in his heart was always lingering.

From childhood to adulthood, the four of them have always been together, and they really have never experienced such separation.
One person, one beast, and one moment were a little bleak, quietly looking at the moon without saying a word.

After a long time, just as the sky was turning white and was about to brighten, Chiba received a message from Minato.

Standing up slowly, Chiba patted Ifuku's head vigorously.

"Ibuku, are you interested in fighting Goo again?"

Jing Fu shook his head disdainfully: "Hmph, I can't ask for it."
