Chapter 148: Not Learning the Right Things and Waiting for the Last - Minute Rescue
"Are you a medical ninja? Hurry, the injured over there are about to hold on no longer."
Hearing this, Yue Yan didn't rush to the place the ninja mentioned to treat the injured. Instead, he glanced at the devastated Konoha around him and silently calculated the chakra in his body.
There was no way. He was just a clone. Currently, he had half of Yue Yan's chakra. As a kage clone, he didn't have Yue Yan's abnormal chakra recovery speed. Basically, the chakra decreased as he used it.
"Summoning Technique!"
Initially, seeing that Yue Yan hadn't gone to treat the injured yet, this Chunin couldn't help but scold him. Then, he saw a soaring column of white smoke rising.
As a gust of wind swept by, the white smoke dissipated, revealing a blue - and - white striped Katsuyu almost ten times the size of the Nine - Tailed Fox.
"This... This... Could this be Katsuyu!? But this size is way too big, isn't it?"
Not only this Chunin, but almost all of Konoha saw Katsuyu. There was no way, Katsuyu was so huge at the moment that even people with presbyopia could see it.
Yue Yan ignored the shocked ninjas and villagers. Gasping, he looked down at Katsuyu.
"Sister Katsuyu, I'm counting on you."
"No problem, little Yue Yan. Leave it to me."
As she said that, the huge Katsuyu began to split. Streams of brick - sized Katsuyus formed a white torrent, rushing across all parts of Konoha and climbing onto all the injured, performing healing ninjutsu.
Since there were so many Katsuyus, there were even some left over after each injured person got three. Even some people with minor scratches had a little Katsuyu crawling on them.
In just an instant, Konoha went from having a shortage of medical ninjas to having an overabundance of medical resources. If Yue Yan, this kage clone, hadn't reserved one - fifth of his chakra for what was ahead, he could definitely have healed the entire village on his own.
"Phew, the chakra consumption is still terrifying. Next time, I'll have to ask the main body to allocate more chakra to me."
Just as Yue Yan was muttering to himself, a little Katsuyu crawled onto his shoulder and couldn't help but praise him.
"Little Yue Yan has done a great job. After all, no one has ever summoned such a large portion of me."
Hearing this, Yue Yan just smiled.
"Even if it's my main body using up all its chakra, it'd probably only be able to summon one - tenth of you, Sister Katsuyu."
The chakra required to summon larger objects doesn't just double; it increases exponentially. However, Yue Yan believed that as long as he grew stronger, he would one day be able to summon all of Katsuyu.
"Sir, may I know your name?"
The Chunin captain with a little Katsuyu on his head stared at Yue Yan admiringly.
This is normal. After all, in the ninja world where strength is paramount, as long as one is powerful, they will be respected. Even someone like Hongchi Yue Yan, who looks underage, is no exception.
"I'm Hongchi Yue Yan, a Konoha Jonin. With the assistance of Katsuyu, we don't have to worry about the injuries of the wounded ninjas. Now, go and gather all the injured ninjas in a safe place," said Yue Yan.
"Yes!"
After the Chunin respectfully responded, he led his team and carried out Yue Yan's order.
Seeing this, Yue Yan looked towards the battlefield again and used the Summoning Technique once more.
With a puff of white smoke, a blue snake appeared. Without wasting any words, Yue Yan jumped onto the snake's head.
"Blue snake, head towards the battlefield over there."
"Yes, Lord Yue Yan."
Although the blue snake wasn't as imposing as Katsuyu, it was still a colossal creature.
The blue snake wriggled its body rapidly and soon reached the battlefield.
After summoning a smaller Katsuyu to treat the injured ninjas, Yue Yan looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was exhausted and out of breath.
"Lord Third Hokage, leave the rest to me."
Seeing Yue Yan, Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was well aware of his strength, showed a surprised look in his eyes. But after using perception, he couldn't help frowning.
"Yue Yan, you..."
Hearing this, Yue Yan waved his hand.
"This is just a kage clone. However, it's enough to last until my real body arrives."
After saying that, Yue Yan clasped his hands together and activated the Ryuchi Cave Sannin Mode.
After transferring the Senji chakra to the blue snake, Yue Yan shouted.
"Let's do this!"
"Roar!!!"
The blue snake let out a thunderous roar. Its body, enhanced by the Senji chakra, shot forward. In an instant, it reached the Nine - Tailed Fox, opened its huge mouth, and bit the fox's neck. Then, like a python, the blue snake wrapped itself around the fox's body.
As the blue snake tightened its grip, the Nine - Tailed Fox howled in pain. Struggling violently, its sharp claws pierced through the snake's scales and dug deep into its flesh.
As the scalding snake blood splashed, it enraged the Nine - Tailed Fox, making it struggle even more fiercely.
However, following Yue Yan's order, even though its body was being torn apart by the brute force of the fox and blood was gushing out, the blue snake didn't loosen its hold.
For a moment, the Nine - Tailed Fox was restricted by the blue snake and struggled on the ground but couldn't break free.
Meanwhile, the ninjas being treated by Katsuyu could only watch helplessly. After all, if they launched an attack, they would also hurt the friendly blue snake.
Watching the two colossal beasts fight, they couldn't help but marvel at the might of this summoning beast.
After struggling for a while and seeing that the blue snake still wouldn't let go, the Nine - Tailed Fox angrily opened its big mouth and began to gather a Tailed Beast Ball. It seemed to intend to attack both itself and the blue snake.
But Yue Yan wouldn't allow such a thing to happen. While the Nine - Tailed Fox was gathering the Tailed Beast Ball, he mobilized the Lightning Bolt and natural energy in his body, and condensed a Lightning Spear more than ten meters long with one hand.
Yue Yan leaped up from the top of the blue snake's head, aimed at the wide - open mouth of the Nine - Tailed Fox, and forcefully threw the Lightning Spear.
The moment the unformed Tailed Beast Ball came into contact with the Lightning Spear empowered by Senji, it suddenly exploded. A gust of wind comparable to a typhoon swept across, sweeping away some ninjas who were too slow to react.
After the dust settled, the Nine - Tailed Fox lay on the ground, with black smoke rising from its big mouth.
On the side, the blue snake had moved away temporarily after receiving Yue Yan's order. But it was still affected by the explosion's shockwave and lifted its head. With its mouth torn at the corners and bleeding profusely, it was about to charge forward again, but was stopped by Yue Yan raising his hand.
At this time, Minato Namikaze suddenly arrived here with Kushina in his arms. Looking at the Nine - Tailed Fox in a momentary daze, Kushina didn't hesitate. Several Adamantine Sealing Chains stretched out from her body and tightly bound the Nine - Tailed Fox.
"Minato, I can't hold on anymore. Seal the Nine - Tailed Fox quickly."
Looking at Kushina, whose breath was weak, sadness flashed in Minato's eyes. Just as he was about to speak, a spatial vortex appeared nearby. Obito Uchiha, with his clothes on his back torn and several cracks on his mask, showed up here.
"Damn it all!"
Minato cursed under his breath. Just as he was about to rush over, he was stopped by Yue Yan.
"Senior Brother Minato Namikaze, leave him to me. You go and seal the Nine - Tailed Fox."
Hearing this, Minato didn't say a word. After nodding, he teleported away using the Flying Thunder God Technique. When he reappeared, he held Naruto in his arms. Meanwhile, to avoid being disturbed, Minato also set up a barrier around, blocking Hiruzen Sarutobi and other ninjas outside.
As for Yue Yan, although he didn't have much chakra left, it seemed that Obito Uchiha on the other side was also seriously injured, so he should be able to hold him off.
Thinking like this, Yue Yan couldn't help but sigh.
Damn it! Why does his main body always have to show up right on schedule like this? Why does he always have to show up just in time to save the day, like he's following a script?
