After transforming, I became the wife of all Naruto fans.

Using her keen sense of wind, she traced the shape of the invisible wind blade in Maki's hand. Since arriving in this world, the strongest sense of crisis had arisen in Qianyu's heart.

She had a premonition that even if her physique could be amplified to the level of a Kage or even higher with the full-body enhancement of the Great Water Arm, she would still be in serious trouble if she were hit by Maki's Wind Blade.

In just a simple exchange, he started with a B-rank Earth Release: Earth Spear, followed by an A-rank Wind Release: Wind Blade without a seal. This shows just how strong Maki is!

Only someone like Maki deserves to be so careful in concealing his own information and conserving resources before the battle begins.

Faced with an unprecedentedly powerful enemy, an unprecedentedly burning fighting spirit filled Qianyu's ruby-like eyes at this moment!

Qian Yu smiled gently: "I admit that my mastery of Wind Release is inferior to yours. But no matter how sharp your Wind Blade is, what good is it if there's no one to wield it?"

As he spoke, an extreme cold erupted from the icy katana that had struck Maki's right shoulder with the Thousand Feather Slash.

The chilling air, capable of instantly freezing boiling water, began to pour into Maki's body from his wounds!

Maki used Earth Release: Earth Spear to harden his body into diamond, maximizing his physical resistance, making him difficult for even Chiyu to cut.

But as ninjas, how could they not prepare when they had prior knowledge of the information?

With advance and ample preparation, even Shikamaru could outwit and kill Hidan, let alone Chiba!

Under Qianyu's icy breath, Maki, who had just been radiating a confident smile, immediately had glistening frost on his eyelashes, and his face turned from a healthy bronze to a bluish-black.

As for the wind blade, it froze on Maki's finger as soon as it came out!

Seeing this, Chiyu smiled with satisfaction: "You're trembling with fear, Maki!"

"Is it because of the extreme cold, or the fear of impending death?"

Hearing Qianyu's words, Maki's single eye darted around, and then his lips moved as if he wanted to speak.

However, what came out of his mouth next was not a sound, but a cloud of deep purple poisonous mist!

The foul-smelling poisonous fog quickly covered Qianyu's face.

However, when faced with a situation where most people would instinctively dodge, Qianyu neither dodged nor avoided.

She instinctively unleashed a burst of wind around her, and the poisonous mist that had just been sprayed at her was blown back, instead smearing Maki's face.

Maki's trump card failed.

However, what he really wanted was just to buy a moment of time.

Just as the poisonous fog was blown back by Qianyu, Maki deliberately detonated the wind blade on the tip of his right finger!

"Swish, swish, swish -"

Starting from the fingertip of Maki's right hand, the wind blade exploded into countless wind blades. The raging wind blades swept between the two, cutting Maki himself to shreds while also severing Qianyu's ice katana and successfully forcing Qianyu back!

Then Maki threw a smoke grenade at his feet, and with a bang, he disappeared into the fog.

Seeing Maki's maneuver, Qianyu sneered disdainfully: "Hiding in the smoke won't stop my pursuit!"

Thousand Feathers quickly formed hand seals:

"Wind Release: Thousand Faces Wind!"

"Swish swish swish swish swish—"

Thousands of wind blades rushed into the dark smoke. Under the siege of the Thousand-Faced Wind, the specially made smoke was torn into shapeless small pieces as if it were being devoured by a flock of crows.

However, after the wind cut through the smoke bomb, Qianyu was surprised to find that there was no Maki in the smoke bomb, only a pool of sand stained with blood.

"They escaped?" Qianyu instinctively judged, but she immediately shook her head: "No, that's not right, they buried themselves in the sand!"

"Tsk!" Qianyu pouted unhappily.

Unexpectedly, the small desert that Gaara created became Maki's advantageous terrain.

Based on the last fleeting glimpse of Maki, he was severely affected by the cold air, making it difficult for him to move normally. Therefore, he should be hiding underground to heal his wounds.

But now the sand beneath her feet has been dug up so deep by Gaara that Chiba doesn't even have the Byakugan ability, so it's really hard to find Maki in a short time.

"So this is what a true veteran elite Jonin is like? Even after succeeding, he still managed to escape!"

Chiba was truly amazed by Maki's performance.

But the stronger he appeared, the less Chiyu could give him a chance to breathe.

"Wei—Chen—Shen—Wu—Si—Wu!"

Ice Release: One-Horned White Whale!

Accompanied by a massive output of chakra!

"Waaaaaahh ...

A long, drawn-out whale song echoed across the land!

"Rumble..."

Then, as the small desert trembled violently, one after another, ice-blue giant whales with spiraling ramming horns on their heads burst out of the sand like they were breaking out of the sea, and went straight upward!

Then, after its enormous body was raised nearly thirty meters high, its hundreds of tons of weight crashed down!

This is how Chiba responded!

Since Qianyu can't find Maki, why doesn't she just plow this whole area?

Simple, crude, but effective!

However, Chiyu's incredibly wild approach caused Maki a lot of trouble.

Seeing this, Maki, who was hiding in the sand and observing the outside world using a ninjutsu similar to the Eye of Sand, was shocked: "Damn it, using such a ninjutsu in a place like this, is she crazy!"

Whether Chiyu is crazy or not, if Maki doesn't want to hide in the sand and be smashed into a meat patty by a beluga whale, he'd better get moving now.

Fortunately, the coldness in Maki's body had been mostly expelled during that time, and he was able to move normally.

So Machi hastily ended his secret method of healing himself with sand baths and hurriedly began to float to the surface!

At the same time, Chiba's beluga whale officially landed on the sand.

"boom!!!!"

Centered on the spot where the beluga whale crashed, the sand rippled like water, forming sand waves comparable to those of Gaara, with huge sand waves squeezing out in all directions!

Amidst this commotion, the foundation of the venue, already damaged by Gaara's actions, was struck again, causing a violent tremor that affected everyone in the venue!

Guy, who had just knocked away a Sound Ninja, looked at his best friend and complained, "Kakashi, how dare you say I'm acting recklessly? Aren't the students you teach even more reckless?"

"Ah, this..." Kakashi was speechless, because he really had taught the White Whale, but he hadn't expected Chiba to be able to use those ice-style techniques from the Land of Snow so well.

Above them, the higher the building, the more likely it is to vibrate, so Orochimaru and the Third Hokage felt it even more intensely.

Looking at the creaking and shaking Four Purple Flame Formation, Orochimaru rarely showed an expression that was a mixture of surprise and solemnity:

"What's all this commotion about? What is Qianyu doing? I hope she doesn't ruin the venue. I haven't had enough time to get close to my teacher yet!"

"You mean Senba?" The Third Hokage heard an unexpected name from Orochimaru.

Orochimaru wasn't surprised that he knew Chiba; what surprised him was how Orochimaru seemed to know Chiba so well.

"Yes, Chiba!"

Looking at the Third Hokage, Orochimaru's snake eyes flickered, and as if he had thought of something, a wicked smile, familiar to the Third Hokage, appeared on his face: "You should have met her before, after all, she is such an outstanding child!"

"I have to say, although I'm a bit tired of Konoha, it really is a cradle of geniuses, producing some good seedlings every now and then!"

"But teacher, geniuses attract each other!" Orochimaru covered his face and chuckled softly.

"What does this mean!" The Third Generation had a bad feeling.

"Orochimaru, you're not satisfied with just wanting Sasuke, do you also want Chiba? I won't let you succeed!"

The third generation gripped the Ruyi Jingu Bang tightly, his tone angry as he said, "Besides, that child isn't someone like you!"

"Hehe, teacher, why are you so angry?"

Orochimaru's smile was full of malice: "You're an old and blind gardener who can't take care of the seedlings. What's wrong with me helping you take care of them?"

"And what kind of person am I?"

"Teacher, don't judge a true genius based on your narrow-minded understanding!"

Orochimaru said something that shocked the Third Hokage: "Actually, I've already met that child once, and we got along quite well!"

"Look at her Wind Release technique, doesn't it seem familiar?"

"Hmm!" The Third Hokage was struck dumb, because Orochimaru's words made him realize that he actually had that feeling.

He happened to have watched the battle between Chiba and Maruboshi Kosuke using the crystal ball.

How could a genius like Senba be related to Orochimaru?

The third generation was shocked, and so were the viewers who witnessed this scene.

But how could the Third Hokage know that Orochimaru was just saying that to tease his own teacher?

Of course, there's also the element of buying time.

Taking advantage of the Third Hokage's distraction, Orochimaru quickly sent out several messages to the outside world, while the First and Second Hokage surrounded the Third Hokage again.

After some time, looking at the returned information, Orochimaru pondered for a moment, then issued several commands, and another undercurrent began to stir.

However, these arrangements are clearly irrelevant to the present day.

Below, a while after the beluga whale had fallen, Maki, battered and disheveled by the sand waves, finally crawled out of the sand.

At this point, he was no longer as at ease as before. His Jonin vest was torn to shreds by his own wind blade, and he was covered in sand.

Looking at Qianyu, Maki exclaimed, "You're a madman!"

"A madman?" Qian Yu said casually, "Genius and madness are two sides of the same coin. You see me as a madman, doesn't that just prove I'm a genius?"

"Hmph, you sharp-tongued brat! I'm not arguing with you!"

Maki stopped engaging in pointless verbal exchanges and instead calmed himself down to think about how to deal with Chiyu.

Unlike Gekko Hayate, who was a pure swordsman completely countered by him, Chiba not only excelled in close combat but also possessed excellent escape techniques and an Ice Release bloodline limit.

However, it's clear that Chiba's Ice Release technique just now consumed a huge amount of chakra...

Maki had an idea.

"Wind Release: Net!"

A pure white net of wind weaves towards Qianyu!

Since the opponent is consuming a lot of chakra, let's compete in escaping techniques.

No matter how talented Chiba is, her age is still a factor. In terms of the accumulation of her escape techniques and the amount of chakra, Maki is still confident.

After the net was set up, Maki followed up with several wind-style attacks to ensure that Chiba could not escape.

However, just as Maki unleashed his Wind Release technique, the wind and thunder around Senba trembled, and a distinct white light covered him!

The next second, under the effect of Swift Escape, Qian Yu turned into a blur, a white light instantly passed through Maki's Wind Escape, and then used Thousand Years of Death to circle around his back and arrive behind him, silently stabbing a kunai into Maki's lower back!

Backstab, kidney strike!
