Chapter 210: Sasuke's Decision! Be my son, Uchiha Sasuke! 

"Gulp!" At this moment, even Gamabunta couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva secretly.

A few drops of cold sweat scared out of its bumpy toad skin.

The slight residual vibration force coming head-on had no significant impact on Gamabunta.

It just made its skin vibrate a few ugly wrinkles.

But even so... Gamabunta could feel how terrifying the man in front of him was.

Such a strong power, the other party can control it very accurately.

The violent wind rolled up by the residual vibration made Gamabunta's coat flutter constantly.

It wasn't until a full ten seconds later that its clothes gradually "let down" and clung to its skin again.

The whole scene fell into silence.

Only Gamabunta's heavy breathing could be heard due to its huge size.

To be honest.

Gamabunta has been in the ninja world for many years and has experienced many battles.

It has fought with many powerful human ninjas.

It has also fought with many powerful summoned beasts.

But Gamabunta has never met such a powerful man, the power he uses is not like the power used by ninjas.

It can clearly perceive that there is no chakra contained in that vibration power!

That terrifying destructive power like a natural disaster.

There is no Senjutsu power contained in it either.

If... it wasn't for Whitebeard's age being too old, Gamabunta might even think that the man in front of him might be the prophesied child in the legend?

"This is Manda!"

No matter how much Gamabunta looks down on Manda, no matter how bad-mouthed Manda is, it has to admit that Manda is very strong.

In a one-on-one situation, it would never be able to take down Manda.

Even if Katsuyu's split body helps, Manda can retreat calmly and composedly even if it can't handle two-on-one.

But, in just a few moves .....

Whitebeard made Manda retreat from Konohagakure in a near-death state.

Gamabunta's gaze swept over the ground below.

Everywhere were Manda's shattered scales, rotten flesh falling off Manda's body, some organ fragments, broken teeth, and the most eye-catching broken tail.

The ground and building ruins were all dyed red by Manda's blood, like a crimson land.

The air was even filled with a pungent smell of blood.

"Jiraiya..." Gamabunta looked at Whitebeard with a sense of dread and shock, "Is he one of you from Konohagakure?"

Jiraiya had never mentioned Whitebeard to Gamabunta.

Gamabunta didn't know Whitebeard.

"...No." Jiraiya's face was as complex and shocked as Gamabunta's, "Whitebeard is a pirate, not a ninja from Konohagakure. He is in Konohagakure village because he forcibly occupied an area of Konohagakure and made it the base of the Whitebeard Pirates."

"Even the old man can't do anything to deal with this kind of pirate, because Whitebeard is very powerful. You should know about the Fourth Mizukage from Kirigakure Village, right?"

Gamabunta thought for a moment, "I have some impression... it seems to be a human with a baby face, looks like a little devil on the surface, but actually not young. If I remember correctly, he seems to be the Jinchuriki of the Three-Tails?"

"He, died in Whitebeard's hands!" Jiraiya said shockingly, "And, according to the information I collected, my teacher and Enma also lost to Whitebeard."

Jiraiya murmured in shock, "I don't know if it's my illusion, this man seems to have the power to destroy the world!"

Standing on top of Gamabunta, Jiraiya could see the severe impact on the entire Konohagakure village more clearly.

Although it was not as outrageous as the destruction caused by the Nine-Tails chaos back then, but you should know that this was just a slash and a punch from Whitebeard!

"The power to destroy the world..." Gamabunta took a deep breath, "Indeed, it feels like that."

"Jiraiya, when you activate Sage Mode, how long can we hold on in his hands if we join forces?"

Gamabunta couldn't help but ask.

He didn't say he could defeat Whitebeard, but could he hold on a little longer in Whitebeard's hands?

"Um... without knowing the specific information about Whitebeard... ten minutes?"

Jiraiya stubbornly said, "But, if we can know the specific information about Whitebeard, maybe we two can defeat him."

"Perverted old man, your words sound like you have no confidence at all!" Suddenly, a childish voice from the side stabbed Jiraiya.

Jiraiya was startled to realize that Naruto was standing next to him.

"Cough, cough!" Jiraiya's old face couldn't help but turn slightly red.

"Stupid brat!" He hurriedly said, "Even though your adoptive father is indeed very powerful, don't underestimate the Sage Jiraiya!"

After all, your biological father is my disciple!

Naruto muttered, "You have a problem in your mind when you thought you could fight my Pops for 10 minutes.... Your body and your mind has been destroyed by woman and alcohol. you think too highly of yourself."

Jiraiya was furious and gritted his teeth, "Damn it! Who teach you to speak bad word little brat?"

And I wasn't destroyed by alcohol and women, okay!

I go to drink and have fun, just reluctantly three or four times a week?

The key is that it's called "collecting material" for writing!

At this moment, Jiraiya could only argue with Naruto...

To cover up the indelible shock in his heart.

...

"A very powerful person, my main body may not be his opponent."

On the other side, Katsuyu gave a calm evaluation.

Compared to Jiraiya's stubbornness.

Katsuyu admitted it frankly.

If she felt she couldn't beat Whitebeard, she would readily admit it.

Admitting that she is weaker than a junior is not a big deal.

"Blue comes from indigo, but surpasses it," is a common saying in the ninja world.

Katsuyu is very open-minded.

"Tsunade, this Whitebeard should be the 'patient' you asked me to help treat before, right?" Katsuyu had actually seen Whitebeard quite early, although strictly speaking, it was its split body that saw him, but it could also be considered that it had seen him!

"Yes." Tsunade had already closed her eyes, she didn't dare to look at the scene in front of her, the pungent smell of blood in the air had already made her body tremble constantly.

It also made Tsunade's lips somewhat pale.

Her complexion was even paler.

Tsunade tried hard to suppress her fear of the smell of blood, she answered the Katsuyu, "I and your split body jointly treated Whitebeard twice."

"It seems that my memory is still pretty good for my age."

Katsuyu made a little joke with a smile.

Then, it exposed Tsunade, "Tsunade, I found that when you saw Whitebeard...

the look in your eyes was very strange! 

The emotions you showed

were a bit surprised, but more of it was a kind of complexity, and that complexity contained longing, hope, entanglement, hesitation, regret, and envy.

Katsuyu laughed lightly, "Tsunade, your emotions are very strange, it doesn't feel like seeing a familiar person with whom you have no blood relationship, it's more like seeing someone....."

"Stop stop stop....."

Tsunade hurriedly defended, "You must have seen it wrong!"

The young girl-form Tsunade muttered, "How could I possibly have such complex emotions for a pirate? In my eyes, the Whitebeard Pirates is just a 'tool' that allows me to use my advanced medical Ninjutsu to make money, that's all~!"

No one knows the complex emotions in Tsunade's heart better than herself.

But, Tsunade who is almost fifty years old...

To be honest.

Tsunade has a kind of admiration for elders towards Whitebeard, and for the Whitebeard Pirates, a family that is united and loving, she also has a kind of very envious emotion.

But when these two emotions are combined.

Tsunade was scared by herself... What's going on with her?

Could it be that she wants to recognize Whitebeard as her father?

Tsunade quietly pinched her thigh.

Forcing herself to calm down a bit.

"Damn it....." Tsunade muttered in confusion, "How can a pirate have such a great personality charm!"

.....

"Whitebeard! Whitebeard! Whitebeard!" The hoarse voice of Danzo gritting his teeth, like a chainsaw being pulled.

It sounds very harsh and heart-wrenching.

Even the words of hatred he gritted his teeth and said were very low in volume under the urging of his strong desire to survive.

"Vibration power... It's this weird vibration power again:"

Danzo was both envious and jealous, "Such a powerful force, why can that guy use it without any side effects? Why can he use it recklessly and unrestrainedly?"

Danzo has personally experienced the horror of vibration power.

He and Sarutobi, both of them were unlucky people who were almost killed by Whitebeard's vibration.

Danzo felt that this power was not inferior to Mangekyou Sharingan.

But Mangekyou Sharingan has a lot of restrictions when it is used.

After using it, there will be very serious side effects.

The user will eventually become blind if it used continuously causing the entire Sharingan to be completely scrapped. or the ability need to cool down for many years.

"But what about Whitebeard?

Danzo found that when Whitebeard used that powerful vibration power, it didn't bring any side effects to Whitebeard.

On the contrary, he felt that Whitebeard was becoming stronger and stronger!

With one strike... he could defeat Orochimaru and Manda.

Even he, Danzo, didn't have that kind of power!

"Wait!" At this moment, Danzo suddenly realized a blind spot. "Tsunade once treated Whitebeard, and now Tsunade mysteriously appears in Konohagakure. And Whitebeard seems to be getting stronger, did Tsunade treat Whitebeard again?"

Danzo's old face turned into a liver color.

When Tsunade returned to the village, she didn't first treat him, a Konohagakure village elder's, but ran to treat a... pirate who was domineering in Konohagakure?

Is she still a ninja of Konohagakure?

Danzo was furious!

He was a bit angry.

...

"Orochimaru-sama and Manda-sama were defeated..." Yakushi Kabuto crawled out of a pile of building ruins, he looked quite embarrassed, his glasses were shattered all over the place.

One of the shattered lenses was still stuck in his face, and the crimson blood flowed out.

The expression on Yakushi Kabuto's face was full of shock.

In his eyes, Orochimaru and Manda were already outrageously strong.

But he didn't expect Whitebeard to be stronger than the two of them combined!

Yakushi, who witnessed this battle with his own eyes, knew very well that it had probably been less than a minute since Whitebeard appeared

In other words, Whitebeard defeated Orochimaru and Manda in less than a minute.

He just met Orochimaru and Manda and defeated them!

"Did Orochimaru-sama and Manda-sama... die?"

"No, it's unlikely..."

Although he knew that Whitebeard's strength had crushed Orochimaru and Manda, Yakushi Kabuto felt that Orochimaru-sama would never die here easily.

Because he has too many life-saving methods.

Orochimaru's life-saving methods are so many... even if he is tied to a place and directly burned alive.

He has a way to survive.

Or have a way to escape.

"It seems that there is no need to worry too much about Orochimaru-sama, I should be more concerned about whether I will expose my identity?" Yakushi Kabuto frowned, "Although Orochimaru-sama is trying hard to help me hide my identity, but he is not killing me after taking me as a hostage, will it make the village think that I have a certain connection with Orochimaru-sama?"

Although... the people in the village may not necessarily think of this.

But as an undercover, I must think of this in advance.

Yakushi Kabuto suddenly gritted his teeth.

He choked his throat with one hand, and with his proficient mastery of medical Ninjutsu, he directly twisted his neck and broke it.

His head drooped to one side, and various parts of his body also showed varying degrees of paralysis due to the fracture of his neck.

One of Yakushi Kabuto's arms and one leg lost consciousness.

The whole person fell to the ground.

He looked very embarrassed.

"Like this, it should be about right." But Yakushi Kabuto did not die because of this, he could still breathe freely, just breathing very uncomfortably, "It is estimated that it will not be long before the medical ninja in the village will find me lying here 'luckily' survived from the cruel Orochimaru."

...

"Sasuke-kun, this is Pops' power!"

At the same time, a semi-transparent half-circle ice cap shattered, and Haku, who was inside, said to Sasuke, "Naruto also made such rapid progress in his strength precisely because he recognized Pops as his adoptive father, and had Pops' personal guidance!"

Haku could see the deep shock and endless admiration in Sasuke's eyes.

He was fanning the flames next to Sasuke, and added a certain "kind temptation".

"Sasuke-kun, Pops really likes children like you!"

Haku smiled slightly, "I heard Naruto say... Pops once invited you to join the Whitebeard Pirates, but you refused. Although... that invitation was more than a year ago, I believe that the invitation is still valid now."

Sasuke: "....."

Haku was blatantly trying to persuade Sasuke to join the Whitebeard Pirates.

Even though Sasuke is not very old, he could understand what Haku meant.

Sasuke was feeling very complicated, the pride of the Uchiha clan made it difficult for him to recognize someone with no blood relation as his adoptive father.

But...

After losing his parents and being betrayed by his elder brother, Sasuke was very eager to join the Whitebeard Pirates.

Because the Whitebeard Pirates could not only bring him family warmth, but also bring him the power of revenge!

For Sasuke.

Whether it's the former or the latter, both can "kill" him!

Sasuke was moved.

He had an idea in his heart... Is the dignity and pride of the Uchiha clan really more important than avenging his parents and clan? Is a completely new "family" really important?

But.

The more Sasuke thought in this direction, the more his face blushed.

Because after all, he had refused Whitebeard.

And he also refused Naruto's invitation some time ago.

For a seven-year-old child.

Making such a choice now...

Is very difficult.

For some reason, when Haku said those words, Sasuke couldn't help but recall scene after scene in his mind.

He remembered his father, his mother, his elder brother, and those clansmen.

He also remembered sentence after sentence that moved him in the middle of the night.

...My foolish little brother, if you want to kill me, then despise me, hate me, and live a loathsome life. Run away and away to cling to life!

"Uchiha Itachi..." Sasuke clenched his small fist, his not long nails even pierced his palm, but Sasuke seemed to be unaware.

The anger and hatred in his chest seemed to become substantial.

...Sasuke, go to school well today! Mom will make Sasuke's favorite "onigiri" today, and when you come back from school, you can eat the fragrant onigiri ! Huh? Do you want to add tomatoes? Although it's a bit strange to add tomatoes to onigiri, but since Sasuke likes it, mom will do it!

"Mom..." Sasuke bit his lower lip, his lower lip was bitten by him, and blood flowed down his chin.

The memory scene flashed in his mind.

The voice of his own mother seemed to ring in his ears.

Sasuke's eyes were a little red.

Tears lingered in his eyes.

Sasuke... a few days ago... had already silently vowed in the middle of the night... he would never cry again in the future, he would become a real man, and he would find that man to avenge.

But the sourness in his heart.

Made Sasuke unable to control himself.

...Sasuke, join the Whitebeard Pirates! Let's become a family together, and in the future, I will be your family! In this way, we good friends can always be together! Hahaha! I will definitely protect you!

"Stupid Naruto..." Sasuke's mouth raised a bit of a little, he could truly feel the sincere friendship and warm recognition that Naruto gave him.

The hatred on his small face and in his eyes had also dissipated a lot.

...Gurarararara! Uchiha Sasuke, be my son!

Recalling Whitebeard's voice echoing in his mind like a thunderclap.

Sasuke stared blankly at Whitebeard in the distance.

Although Whitebeard's size couldn't compare with Gamabunta and Katsuyu, these large summoned beasts...

But in Sasuke's eyes.

There is no creature in the world whose silhouette is taller than Whitebeard.

Unconsciously, Sasuke walked towards Whitebeard.

Tears welled up in his eyes and slid down his cheeks.

He walked faster and faster.

Family.

Comrades.

Revenge.

Affection.

Recognition.

Bonds.

One word after another flashed in Sasuke's mind.

Sasuke made a decision that could change his life.

Sasuke didn't know if he would regret it in the future.

But he won't regret it now!
