"One minute left."
"Aren't you going to give it a try?"
Naruto said with a half-smile.
Onoki lowered his eyes in dejection.
The Fourth Raikage's chest heaved rapidly with anger at these words.
["not good."]
"That's the limit."
The Fourth Raikage suddenly lost his spirit.
[The person fell straight to the ground.]
[Onoki saw this.]
[At first, I was taken aback.]
[Then his face turned dark.]
My back hurts so much!
[but. ]
Now is not the time to consider these things.
He may not die.
[But if the Fourth Raikage is allowed to fall like this...]
[He will definitely die.]
[call--]
Take a deep breath.
Onoki stood up again.
[Earth Escape! ]
[Super Lightweight Rock Technique!]
[Buzz—]
[In an instant.]
[Ōnoki is as light as a swallow.]
[Whoosh—]
Without hesitation, he flew down to chase after the Fourth Raikage's falling figure.
[Naruto saw this.]
[He shook his head and smiled.]
["alright."]
"This is finished too."
"The rest."
"Let Shikamaru handle this."
Nara Shikamaru: "..."
Yes, yes, yes.
This is so troublesome...
I knew it would turn out like this.
I thought so many predecessors had emerged.
And Dad is still here.
It was the perfect time to strike.
In the end, I still couldn't slack off.
...
[Whoosh whoosh whoosh——]
The massive, fully-formed Susanoo began to disappear.
Naruto slowly flew towards the ground.
"Oh, right, there's one more."
[Consciousness instantly entered the wooden clone.]
Naruto: "..."
Naruto was speechless again.
[If you didn't know better, you'd think you were flirting with Mei Terumi.]
["alright."]
"Stop playing."
Luckily, I thought of that first.
Otherwise, the Fourth Raikage and Onoki would have seen it when they came down.
[I'm definitely going to start questioning my existence.]
[The truth.]
With them around, Mei Terumi won't be able to perform well.
However, Mei's Lava Release technique is very ineffective against a fully-fledged Susanoo.
Actually, Mei Terumi wasn't slacking off either.
[That's just the upper limit of his power.]
[and. ]
Mei Terumi can also remove her hands from the keyboard after casting Lava Release.
This gives her a lot of room to maneuver.
[Mei Terumi heard the wood clone speak.]
She knew that Naruto had taken over the controls.
[She subconsciously pursed her lips.]
My tongue still hurts a little.
[Bang--]
Suddenly.
[Mei Terumi's eyes widened.]
I felt a sharp, indescribable pain in my abdomen.
My stomach churned violently.
["etc!"]
Mei Terumi clutched her stomach, her face instantly turning deathly pale.
"No...don't hit my stomach..."
"What if it breaks?"
Naruto: "..."
[Um? ! ]
[No!]
["Heh...heh..."]
Mei Terumi continuously adjusted her breathing.
[He added:]
"You can't hit the face, and you can't hit the legs..."
[It won't look good if it's injured!]
[Um...]
"Let's spank him, there's more flesh there, and he'll recover faster..."
As she spoke, a faint blush inevitably appeared on Mei Terumi's pretty face.
Naruto: "???"
For a fleeting moment, Naruto felt helpless.
He shook his head.
[He thrust again at Mei Terumi's stomach.]
"Ah~!"
Mei Terumi screamed.
[but. ]
Mei quickly realized something was wrong.
This is not physical harm, but psychological harm.
[Illusion!]
[Absolutely correct!]
[Looking up.]
[And there stood Naruto Uzumaki at that moment.]
[His eyes were clearly those of the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.]
[I am currently in an illusionary world.]
Mei Terumi's eyes lit up.
Not bad!
She instantly understood what Naruto meant.
However, I felt a pang of reluctance.
It seems so.
The old era has come to an end.
The Fourth Raikage and the Third Tsuchikage are very powerful.
But the one before me... can't be described simply as strong.
"Is it over?"
Naruto nodded slightly.
Seeing Mei Terumi's quick reaction, a hint of admiration appeared in his eyes.
[The Hidden Mist Village was already severely weakened.]
[so. ]
The arrival of the "big fox" team was merely a formality.
[The Hidden Mist Village surrendered immediately.]
[Although it's embarrassing.]
But, which is more important, face or life?
Those who are both tough and capable are unlikely to remain in the village.
It's also impossible to see the subsequent surrender.
[They were probably already dead before the big fox and his men even entered the village.]
"So, when are you coming to Kirigakure to pick me up?"
"I can also help you revive the Vortex!"
Is it really that crazy?
Naruto was speechless.
How could he know what Mei Terumi thought about the word "marriage"?
[It's reached the point of madness.]
[It's an obsession.]
Previously, Mei Terumi would become extremely sensitive to anything even remotely related to such words.
Qing had truly teetered on the brink of death several times.
The reason it's not usually noticeable is...
[It's simply because Mei Terumi hasn't found a suitable marriage partner.]
Found it...
[And it's perfect, no, even better than perfect.]
How could she possibly tolerate this?
Furthermore, there is no one else here, and it's within an illusionary world.
Mei Terumi is completely released.
[Looking at Mei Terumi, who had spread her arms wide, displaying her impressive assets.]
Don't say it.
This passionate woman possesses a unique charm.
However, now is not the time to consider these things.
["it's over."]
"Someone will handle the rest."
Before this, I also had...
[Naruto hadn't finished speaking.]
Mei Terumi immediately stepped forward.
"I can help you!"
"My strength may not be as good as yours, but you are still the Mizukage, aren't you?"
[Faced with Mei Terumi's advances, which were as infatuated as a lovesick woman.]
Naruto shook his head.
"Take the rest of the Hidden Mist Village back to the village."
"Onoki and the Fourth Raikage would do the same."
[It seems Mei Terumi still wants to try.]
Naruto raised his hand to stop her.
"Cooperate fully with the investigation."
"How many people survive depends on you shadows."
[Having said that.]
Naruto has disappeared.
[at the same time. ]
[The real world.]
[Onoki is pulling the Fourth Raikage along.]
[Barely landed.]
Although there is no immediate danger.
But he still fell and got completely disoriented.
The Fourth Raikage grimaced in pain.
Onoki suddenly lay down on the ground, almost standing at attention.
[My chakra is completely depleted.]
Fortunately, there isn't much molten fog here.
At this time.
Onoki barely managed to lift his head and glance into the distance.
Mei Terumi stood there, stunned.
"Oh no, Mizukage has fallen under an illusion."
"I need to recover quickly, otherwise I'll get hit by these Lava Release techniques..."
[Before Onoki finished speaking...]
Naruto appeared in front of the two.
[He repeated what he had said to Mei Terumi.]
[Wait until he finishes speaking.]
Both Onoki and the Fourth Raikage remained silent.
Naruto finished speaking and ignored them, turning and leaving.
The choice is theirs.
As a shadow, it will have some effect, more or less.
"Naruto-sama."
At that moment, two white figures emerged from the ground and grabbed Naruto's legs.
Ten minutes, at a moderate pace.
[Xiao Bai 002 and Ning Si Bu Que Bai Jue arrived on time.]
Behind them were countless white Zetsu and other white monsters.
