Volume 1 Chapter 356 Kusanagi Sword? Then I have to choose carefully
"Great! The tailed beast has been driven away!!"
"Long live Master Qianyue!!!"
As the Vulpix was led away, the Three-Tails was roughly beaten away by Chitsuki, leaving a tail and a few broken horns on the beach as trophies, and the ninjas of Konoha cheered with joy.
Some ninjas who knew Qianyue shouted even louder, and more and more people shouted Qianyue's name.
This made Chitsuki feel like she had returned to the days of the Second Ninja World War during the Rain Country War.
At that time, many people also shouted their names like this.
Sure enough, everyone is vain.
Qianyue admitted that this felt good.
"Everyone, don't get excited. Now is not the time to be happy. The enemy may counterattack at any time. Clean up the battlefield as soon as possible and evacuate the coastline."
Jiraiya immediately stood up and took control of the situation.
If you want to cheer or congratulate, you have to choose a time. Konoha has suffered heavy losses now, and the Mist Village may return at any time. If you are not prepared, you may suffer a great loss again.
Under Jiraiya's command, Konoha's ninjas began to clean up the battlefield, collect supplies, and sort out the bodies of their companions and enemies.
The bodies of companions are sent back to the village for burial, and the bodies of enemies can also reveal some secrets. Those that are too damaged can be burned directly.
Konoha was already merciful by not dumping all the bodies on the beach. Don't expect them to take care of the enemy's funeral.
"It's really strange. The tailed beasts are all monsters condensed by chakra, but part of their bodies can be cut off."
The broken tail and several horns of the Three-Tails were Chitsuki's trophies. Jiraiya sent a few ninjas to help him put the trophies in the sealing scroll.
"I heard that the brothers Gold and Silver from the Kumogakure were swallowed by the Nine-Tails while they were capturing it. They survived by eating the Nine-Tails' flesh and blood, and also gained the power to control the Nine-Tails' chakra. Do you want to try it?"
"Maybe the big turtle's tail tastes good."
Chizuki encouraged Jiraiya and suggested that he gnaw on the Three-Tails' tail, hoping that he could obtain the Three-Tails' chakra, just like the Gold and Silver brothers.
But forget it.
Jiraiya rolled his eyes: "You always give bad advice."
"Hahaha........"
Following the main force's retreat, Chitsuki and Jiraiya walked at the back, responsible for covering their retreat and preventing any enemy pursuit.
Being bored along the way, Qianyue decided to make fun of Jiraiya.
"Fortunately you came, otherwise these two big guys would be difficult to deal with. The Mist Village is simply crazy. They actually released the tailed beasts onto the battlefield. Their Jinchūriki was willing to sacrifice himself and deal a fatal blow to our Konoha. This time, Orochimaru and I have suffered a setback."
So war can be fought this way?
I have learned a lot.
In the past, the tailed beasts of the five major ninja villages were all well hidden, and only the Mist Village set a precedent by directly throwing the tailed beast out to fight.
It is not unprecedented for a Jinchūriki to take part in a war; the Jinchūriki of the Iwagakure Village often participated in battles.
But that was the battle of the Jinchūriki.
The Mist Village is doing this at the cost of sacrificing its Jinchūriki and letting the tailed beasts out to cause trouble.
"Who would have thought that the Mist Village would be so crazy."
Looking at the team ahead that was in a mournful atmosphere, Qianyue sighed:
"The loss to the village this time is too great."
Just two tailed beasts reduced the number of Konoha's ninjas by one third, and many were injured, which meant that half of Konoha's more than 3,000 ninjas were directly lost. Such a loss would be painful for everyone, as this was an elite force specially formed by Konoha.
By the time the news gets back to the village, the Third Hokage might have a heart attack.
"Ah~~~"
Jiraiya didn't know what to say except sighing.
The large army evacuated and rebuilt a new camp thirty kilometers from the coastline. Fortunately, the Mist Village did not take the opportunity to pursue them.
Not long after, Orochimaru and Minato came back. Both of them were not in good condition. Minato was too tired to talk, and Orochimaru seemed to have suffered a big blow and was doubting his life.
Just from his eyes flashing with hatred, it can be seen that Orochimaru was angered by the Mist Village's move.
In the makeshift tent, Orochimaru gritted his teeth and said:
"I have already sent the news back to the village. The failure of this battle is my fault. No matter how the village punishes me, I will take it. In addition, I have ordered all troops in other places to evacuate and gather at the camp."
The losses were too great, and Orochimaru did not dare to continue dispersing his troops.
Jiraiya leaned back in his chair in silence. He didn't need to take the blame, but he couldn't be happy either.
"Qian Yuejun, it's a good thing you arrived in time for this battle."
After reviewing his own problems, Orochimaru expressed his gratitude with a smile.
Qianyue shrugged:
"No need to thank me, it's my job to do it, if you feel bad about it, just give me a Kusanagi sword as compensation.
The Thunder God Sword had cracks when it was fighting against the Three-Tails and was about to break."
I have suffered a great loss, you have to compensate me.
"Can."
Orochimaru opened his mouth, and a white snake as thick as an arm crawled out of his mouth and spit out a scroll.
“.......”
Looking at the scroll on the table that was wet and covered with mucus, Qianyue felt like cursing.
Could you please stop being so disgusting?
"Qian Yuejun can choose one."
There is not just one Kusanagi sword, but a set.
Orochimaru collected three.
One of the double-edged swords is the one he often uses, and the longest one in the middle, the Kusanagi sword, which doesn't have too many frills, is the one he gave to Sasuke in the original work.
There is also a dagger, or more accurately a dagger, because it is a broken-blade sword.
Considering that Naruto does not distinguish between swords and blades, there is actually no difference between calling them swords or blades.
"That's it."
The one Orochimaru often uses, Chizuki doesn't like it, he still prefers the one Sasuke uses.
"It looks like Qianyue-kun has a choice."
Seeing Chiyue staring at the Kusanagi sword in the middle, the smile on Orochimaru's pale face gradually spread. Even though Chiyue could choose anything she wanted, he still hoped that Chiyue would choose something else instead of the Kusanagi sword that he often used.
Picking up the Kusanagi sword, Qianyue flicked the blade of this single-edged sword, listened to the crisp sound, and nodded with satisfaction:
"good."
Narrowing his eyes, Orochimaru smiled:
"This sword is suitable for Qianyue-kun. It is called Ying, and it is very good at transmitting and accommodating lightning attribute chakra."
"Forehead........"
Just as Qianyue was about to say thank you, a few black lines appeared on her forehead, and she quickly retorted: "No, it's not called Ying, it's called Lei! Kusanagi Jianlei!"
It’s clearly a single-edged sword for men, but it’s called Sakura?
Are you sure you're not kidding me?
Forget it, I'll change my name myself, you don't need to worry about it, Orochimaru.
It makes me feel like I'm holding a bunch of crying monsters, it's really frustrating.
