Chapter 109: ¡Chiyo! (Edited)

The troop of Sunagakure ninja had just finished a bloody battle.

Moreover, the battle seemed to have been fought not far away, and many bodies of ninja could be seen.

There were no ninja from Konoha.

It had been a battle between Iwagakure and Sunagakure ninja that ended with the massacre of the Iwagakure ninja.

And now, Naito and Tsunade met them at the last minute when the Sunagakure ninja were ready to retreat.

However, what surprised Naito was that the Captain of the elite Sunagakure troop looked very familiar.

Chiyo!

She was Sasori's grandmother, but she was still very young and at the peak of her power, so Naito hardly recognized her.

Chiyo also saw Naito and Tsunade, Naito was wearing his mask and cloak, so naturally she couldn't recognize his identity.

Tsunade, however, she recognized immediately.

The path between enemies is always a narrow path!

Chiyo's expression was slightly cold as she looked at Tsunade and said, "You.... you really are alive, it seems those Iwagakure bastards are really trash!"

Tsunade realized that Chiyo was surrounded by thirty or forty Sunagakure ninja and frowned slightly, but she calmed down at the thought of Naito's strength.

Glancing at Chiyo, Tsunade revealed a slight look of arrogance and said, "I see you're still alive too, Oba-san."

"Hmph! What can I say, I'm that strong," Chiyo snorted coldly, as the Sunagakure ninjas surrounded Naito and Tsunade.

Chiyo was a puppeteer, but at the same time she was extremely good with medical Jutsu and poison.

Tsunade, on the other hand, was not good at using poison, but Tsunade was even better at medical Jutsu and detoxification than Chiyo!

In the anime, Chiyo's poison played an important role in World War II and killed many ninja, but it didn't work on the Konoha Army.

And it was all because of Tsunade.

And although Chiyo and Tsunade have never fought face to face, Chiyo's poison and Tsunade's antidotes had many fierce battles.

Basically, Tsunade, during World War II, made an antidote for every poison that Chiyo used, and this made her very famous as the best medical ninja ever.

At that moment, a ninja walked beside Chiyo and informed her about the situation, "Chiyo-sama, there are no other ninja from Konoha here except the two of them."

Upon hearing this news, Chiyo's face revealed a bit of dismay.

Immediately after, Chiyo's face was filled with joy.

That means... she can take this opportunity to kill Tsunade!

As a veteran member of Sunagakure, Chiyo naturally knew the news that Tsunade was being pursued by the Iwagakure ninja, but then Tsunade's trail was lost.

But now she appeared again with an Anbu from Konoha.

She assumed that Konoha sent a troop to rescue her, and after a fierce battle they managed to save her.

But also in the bloody fight with the Iwagakure ninja, only Naito and Tsunade were left alive.

"Should I say it's my luck or your misfortune that you just escaped from those Iwagakure guys only to run into me?", A faint smile appeared on Chiyo's face, but it was a smile that carried a disturbingly cold murderous intent, "I'm not a piece of trash like those Iwagakure ninja and you, the best medical ninja in Konoha, will stay buried here today!",

Chiyo's words didn't affect Tsunade's confidence, in fact, she seemed even more confident than Chiyo, so she said, "Is that so? Then we'll have to see if you're able to let me make me stay here or not!"

After all, she had Naito with her, and Naito's strength was something she knew very well.

Thirty or forty Sunagakure ninja would never be able to hold Naito!

A hint of anger appeared on Chiyo's face as she sneered, "Arrogant girl!"

At Chiyo's age, she was certainly qualified to call Tsunade a child; after all, her son and daughter-in-law, Sasori's parents, were already on the battlefield, and both were famous for their strength.

Though they would be killed by Hatake Sakumo later in this war.

Looking coldly at Tsunade, Chiyo gave a sudden order and the Sunagakure ninjas rushed in unison.

As far as Chiyo was concerned, Tsunade and Naito were only two people, and under siege, it was impossible to fight them, or even escape.

"Fire Jutsu: Fireball!" (Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu).

"Wind Jutsu: Great Rupture" (Fūton: Daitoppa).

In an instant, dozens of ninja threw Fire and Wind Jutsus, and others threw Shurikens and Kunais.

Boom!!!

The wind and fire Jutsus mixed together forming a very strong fire Jutsu that evaporated the rain itself.

As she watched the countless attacks piling up and heading towards Naito and Tsunade, Chiyo's face calmed down.

That girl, Tsunade, was just a medical ninja, there was no way she could block an attack like that, and as for the Anbu.... he didn't look good enough to be the Anbu Captain of Konoha's Anbu department.

And just when she thought Tsunade and Naito would surely die, what happened next surprised her.

Boom!!!

As the flames were about to fall on Naito and Tsunade, Naito finally moved.

Taking a slight step forward, Naito opened his arms and folded them, as if he was about to embrace Tsunade, and in the next instant, his arms turned straight outward and hit both sides with his fists.

CRACK!!!

The air crackled and the space cracked like a broken mirror, the cracked space was so large that it even eclipsed the combined wind and fire Jutsu thrown by the dozens of ninjas.

Suddenly, the shockwave spread in all directions.

Except for the place where Naito and Tsunade were standing, the ground on both sides of them cracked, and the muddy ground shook wildly, billowing in all directions!

It was devastating, and completely destroyed all incoming attacks!

Tsunade, who was in Naito's arms, looked at Chiyo from a distance with a calm face, with a hint of provocation on her face.

Naito pulled his arms back, but was a little surprised by Tsunade's attitude, it seems she was very confident in his strength more than he thought.

Naito smiled slightly, since Tsunade is always good to him, he didn't mind to keep protecting her, "Tsunade-sama, you don't need to fight, I'm more than enough."

Tsunade was a little surprised, but quickly understood his intentions and smiled, saying, "Well, I'll leave it to you then."
