Where is Your Loss?

The golden light swept across as the headless body of the Third Kazekage slowly fell.

With hands in pockets and right foot on the ground, Kizaru scanned the surroundings, seeing corpses strewn across the field, with hardly any Sunagakure ninjas left breathing.

"It looks like I've won!" Sensing with his Observation Haki, Kizaru noticed that Sakumo was still moving rapidly. Kizaru laughed and said, "Seems like I've won!"

Raising his right hand, he shot out his index finger, and laser beams flew from his fingertips.

With precise strikes guided by his Observation Haki, Kizaru eliminated the entire Sunagakure ninja force within the forest.

Having completed the clearance mission, Kizaru bent down to lift the headless body of the Third Kazekage. With a Body Flicker Jutsu, he disappeared into the forest.

On the muddy path between the two forests, Chiyo led the Sunagakure ninjas in a skirmish against the Konoha ninjas.

It was clear that the puppets manipulated by Chiyo were coated with deadly poison. Danzo stood in the distance, continuously using Wind Release ninjutsu to restAmegakure Chiyo.

Meanwhile, the young Sannin led the Konoha ninjas in combat against the Sunagakure ninjas.

"Danzo, this is where you'll meet your end today!" Chiyo coldly declared as the puppet attacked Danzo. 

With a smirk on his face, Danzo dodged the attack using his Body Flicker Technique and said, "Take care of your Kazekage first, Chiyo!"

Although Chiyo trusted the Third Kazekage deeply, there was still some worry in her heart. At this moment, she had to choose to be firm.

"The Kazekage won't lose!" Chiyo said with certainty, increasing the intensity of her attacks.

Simultaneously, she controlled several puppets to flank Danzo from the front and sides. Chiyo wanted to defeat Danzo quickly and then assist the Third Kazekage.

Facing attacks coming from multiple directions, Danzo also felt the pressure. He swiftly formed hand seals, preparing to use Wind Style: Vacuum Serial Waves.

Just as Danzo was about to use his ninjutsu, a body fell from the sky.

Both Danzo and Chiyo sensed the disturbance and looked up at the sky.

With widened eyes, and hands momentarily ceasing their movements, Chiyo recognized the clothing of the falling body—it was the Third Kazekage's.

As Danzo dodged the attack and released his ninjutsu, cutting the puppet in front of him into pieces with his Wind Whip, he exclaimed, "This is terrifying, Uncle!"

Seeing Danzo appear, Chiyo felt a wave of relief. Despite wanting to admonish Danzo for potentially preemptively attacking Kizaru, considering the battlefield, Chiyo held her tongue.

Unlike the now relaxed Danzo, Chiyo, whose puppets were destroyed, looked at the headless body lying on the ground, her face solemn, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes.

Could it be that the Third Kazekage had truly perished in battle?

From the body to Kizaru who had just appeared, Chiyo coldly questioned, "Where did you take the Third Kazekage, brat?"

Hearing Chiyo's question, Danzo also realized the situation.

A strong suspicion rose in Danzo's mind, which he couldn't suppress. He abruptly turned to look at Kizaru beside him.

Though he didn't speak, Danzo's eyes revealed his thoughts.

"Did you kill the Third Kazekage?"

Kizaru understood Danzo's gaze and the unspoken question he wanted to ask.

Nodding with a smile, Kizaru looked at Chiyo and said, "Isn't your Kazekage right in front of you, old lady?"

Did the Third Kazekage truly fall in battle?

Had the Third Kazekage, renowned as the strongest Kazekage, been killed by the ten-year-old Konoha genius, Kizaru?

Initially unable to accept such a reality, Chiyo quickly forced herself to calm down and consider how to proceed.

"There's also some good news I have to tell you," looking at Chiyo's serious expression, Kizaru smiled and said, "It seems like the Sunagakure puppet corps that was surrounding us from behind has been completely wiped out!"

"What?" Unable to maintain her composure any longer, Chiyo exclaimed in shock.

"Hehehe! Big Brother Sakumo, it's really terrifying!" Sensing the decreasing presence behind them, Kizaru sighed.

The leader of the Sunagakure puppet corps responsible for the surrounding mission from behind was Chiyo's son and daughter-in-law. Upon hearing Kizaru's words, Chiyo didn't even bother to confirm whether the Third Kazekage had fallen in battle.

Driven by maternal concern, even if Chiyo knew Kizaru might be lying, she didn't dare to gamble.

Controlling the remaining puppet sheep to attack Kizaru and Danzo, Chiyo leaped up abruptly and jumped towards the nearby forest.

Transforming into golden light, Kizaru appeared in the sky above Chiyo.

"If I let you interfere and trouble Big Brother Sakumo, it'll be troublesome for me!" With these words, Kizaru's right foot, shining with golden light, descended.

Unable to evade, despite being exceptionally skilled in taijutsu compared to ordinary ninjas, Chiyo could only adopt a defensive posture, attempting to withstand Kizaru's kick technique.

Crashing straight into the ground, Chiyo lay motionless in the deep pit, her life hanging in the balance.

"Handle it, Uncle!" Speaking to Danzo in the air, Kizaru transformed into golden light once again, heading to support the nearby trio.

The ninja force led by Chiyo consisted of over eight hundred people, more than twice the number of Konoha ninjas.

In order to minimize casualties among their comrades, Tsunade and the other two did their best to hold off dozens of Sunagakure ninjas. Combined with the reinforcements from the Amegakure, the situation temporarily reached a stalemate.

The battlefield here was chaotic, and with concern for causing unintentional harm, Kizaru refAmegakureed from using his clearing technique, Yasakani no Magatama instead opting to wield the Ama no Murakumo sword.

With each strike of his sword, a Sunagakure ninja fell, and Kizaru glanced at the triangular formation of the trio.

"I arrived just in time, Tsunade-senpai!" With a casual swing of his sword, he cleared out the enemies on his left side, grinning broadly.

"Kizaru!" Seeing Kizaru appear, the trio's faces lit up with joy, especially Tsunade, who exclaimed directly.

Kunai with explosive tags flew from behind towards Kizaru, but before they could explode, Kizaru, now with his head turned, remarked, "That was a close one, almost got blown up! How terrifying!"

With a chuckle, he sheathed his sword, raised his right hand, and fired a laser beam.

The laser beams precisely hit their targets, causing massive explosions that engulfed all the surrounding Sunagakure ninjas.

"Hehehe! Looks like my explosions are more powerful after all!"

From ninja blades to kunai, from poisoned needles to explosive tags, and various ninjutsu, attacks continuously came from all directions towards Kizaru.

Facing the formidable Kizaru, the Sunagakure ninjas launched relentless attacks, driven by their fearless spirit.

Standing still and enduring all the attacks, Kizaru simply kept flicking his right index finger, shooting out laser beams.

The laser beams, like the scythe of death, relentlessly took the lives of the Sunagakure ninjas.

"Darn it, where's the Kazekage?" Unable to handle the enemy's strength, one Sunagakure ninja couldn't help but ask.

"The Kazekage?" Hearing the question, Kizaru temporarily halted his attacks and kindly replied, "That guy was as strong as a monster, and I've already killed him."

"The strongest Kazekage is dead?"

Unable to believe such a thing, the Sunagakure ninja roared in anger and charged towards Kizaru.

"Damn you, you bastard! You won't deceive us! Die!"

Rushing towards Kizaru, the ninja, with poisoned kunai in hand, attempted to strike Kizaru but stopped midair in agony before reaching him.

A beam of light pierced through his chest, blood gushing from his mouth. Despite the pain, he continued to move his hand, now weakly and determinedly aiming towards Kizaru's head. However, before he could make contact, he lost all strength and fell limp.

With a gentle swing of his sword, Kizaru tossed the enemy's body to the ground. He then lifted his sword again, smiling as he surveyed the surroundings.

As the attacks gradually ceased, the Sunagakure ninjas surrounding Kizaru took three steps back.

Not knowing who was the first to succumb to Kizaru's pressure and flee, a wave of retreat ensued, with more and more Sunagakure ninjas turning to run.

Watching these fleeing ninjas, Kizaru didn't pursue. It was his deliberate choice.

With Kizaru's appearance, the battlefield situation changed dramatically, and the trio, accompanied by Konoha and Amegakure ninjas, quickly gained the upper hand.

Moreover, with the news of the Third Kazekage's death spreading from Kizaru's mouth, the Sunagakure ninjas lost their will to fight, and many began to retreat.

"Yasakani no Magatama!"

Seeing the Sunagakure starting a large-scale retreat, Kizaru flew into the air, crossing his hands and releasing the Yasakani no Magatama towards the direction of the fleeing Sunagakure ninjas.

"Don't pursue, fall back!" Seeing Kizaru initiating a powerful technique, Tsunade quickly called out to the Konoha and Amegakure ninjas who wanted to chase after them.

A few ninjas who were ahead were also held back by their companions, following the trio in retreat.

These ninjas, looking up at Kizaru in the sky, watched as the light bullets flew from his hands, piercing through one fleeing Sunagakure ninja after another.

The chain of explosions caused by the light bullets hitting the ground further shocked everyone present.

Such widespread, highly destructive ninjutsu on the battlefield was simply a ruthless reaper of life.

The Amegakure ninjas who witnessed this scene couldn't help but feel relieved in their hearts that Hanzo had led everyone to surrender early.

If they had really encountered the Konoha's Golden Flash, the Yasakani no Magatama, on the front lines, few would have survived.

Unlike the relief felt by the Amegakure, the ninjas of Konoha showed expressions of excitement and excitement.

Seeing Kizaru's performance on the battlefield for the first time, these Konoha ninjas were all amazed, followed by endless excitement.

Kizaru's strength represented the strength of the village. The stronger the village, the more prosperous everyone would naturally be.

Because of this, the Konoha ninjas on the scene looked up at Kizaru in the sky with a deep sense of admiration in their eyes.

"This guy really knows how to show off!" Looking up at the sky, Jiraiya couldn't help but admit that Kizaru was simply too cool at this moment!

A fist struck Jiraiya, and Tsunade glared at him, saying, "Quiet!"

Clutching his arm where he was hit and looking at Tsunade, who had been staring at Kizaru, Jiraiya felt a pang of sadness!

Without letting Jiraiya feel sad for too long, after using the Hachimon Tonkō to deal with most of the fleeing Sunagakure ninjas, Kizaru descended from the sky and came to stand in front of the trio.

"Today was really hard work!" Landing on the ground, Kizaru stretched lazily and complained.

Looking at Kizaru, who had no injuries anywhere on his body and not even a wrinkle in his clothes, the trio's mood was complicated.

"Kizaru!" Approaching Kizaru with a forced smile, Tsunade said in a dangerous tone, "You really worked hard, Kizaru, my junior!"

"So terrifying, Tsunade-senpai!" Laughing and teasing, Kizaru disappeared in an instant.

"That annoying guy!" Grumbling under her breath, Tsunade, seeing Kizaru disappear, could only helplessly put her hands on her hips.

With merciless slashes, he ended the life of the last Sunagakure puppeteer, and Sakumo calmly returned his blade to its sheath behind his back.

"Another top-tier warrior! There are so many strong ones in Konoha!"

Halfway through supporting the Amegakure Village ninjas, Hanzo witnessed Sakumo's entire battle and couldn't help but sigh in his heart!

"Your swordsmanship is excellent!" Walking up to Sakumo, Hanzo praised.

"I can only boast about my swordsmanship, hahaha!" Looking at Hanzo, Sakumo, confident in his swordsmanship, laughed and replied.

"May I know your name?" Looking at Sakumo, who was also skilled in swordsmanship, Hanzo asked.

"Hatake Sakumo!" Without hesitation, Sakumo directly stated his name.

"Your strength, I approve! From now on, I'll call you Sakumo, Konoha's White Fang!" The old habit resurfaced, and Hanzo gave Sakumo a title.

Flying over from afar, Kizaru happened to witness this scene.

"Hehehe! Konoha's White Fang, that's a good title! Big Brother Sakumo!" Even before landing from the sky, Kizaru's voice had already reached them.

Having been given a title by Hanzo and coincidentally heard by Kizaru, Sakumo smiled helplessly.

"Konoha's White Fang? Sounds like a pretty good title!" Facing the title given by Hanzo, Sakumo accepted it calmly.

And so, Sakumo, who was supposed to earn the title of Konoha's White Fang in the future, relying on the terrifying power of his self-created Konoha secret technique, the "Thousand Years of Death," received his exclusive title ahead of time.

"Kizaru, is everything resolved on your end?" Watching Kizaru approach, concerned about the mission and his comrades, Sakumo spoke up.

"If nothing unexpected happens, then I should have won." Kizaru smiled and answered Sakumo's question from the side.

If Kizaru said he had won, it meant the mission was accomplished, and the Sunagakure had been defeated.

"Hahaha!" Laughing happily, Sakumo loudly said, "Then I really suffered a heavy loss!"

A heavy loss???

Not knowing where the losses were for the two in front of him, Hanzo, who had made a bet, looked at the bodies of the Sunagakure puppeteers strewn all over the ground, then glanced at Sakumo, who had only suffered minor injuries, and Kizaru, whose clothes weren't even dirty.

Filled with questions, Hanzo really wanted to ask, where were their losses?
