Chapter 90: 84- "I want to defeat him myself."
Boom ~
Jiraiya quickly used the Needle Jizō to protect himself.
Boom boom~
The roar of the detonating Explosive Tag continued, and the entire terrain was destroyed by the explosion.
Jiraiya also hardened his long silver hair into the form of thorns looks like a hedgehog and stretched it, enveloping the whole body, defending against Hanzō of the Salamander, but he looks very bad. There are burn marks on his hands.
Jiraiya looked at the location where Tsunade was in and felt unparalleled anxiety, she was in the midst of the explosion so she would definitely take a huge damage if she didn't die.
As soon as he looked into the center of the explosion, he saw within the smoke and dust the silhouette of a giant skeleton with horns on its head and eye sockets glowing.
"What is this thing?" Hanzo looked at this and a frown appeared on his face.
"Ryuu Uchiha." Orochimaru looked at the giant skeleton and knew directly who had arrived on the battlefield, although he hadn't seen Ryuu using Susanoo (Because Ryuu rarely uses Susanoo in fights.Also, their fights were in different arenas, so he did not see it personally.), he had heard about it and had researched everything about Ryuu, so he recognized him by just a look.
The skeleton comes out of the explosion area and reveals its full form.
But the skeleton dissipated after a moment, after all it served the purpose of using it to protect Tsunade.
"Damn it, I'm the one who's supposed to do this not him." Jiraiya looked at the three people in front of him and felt intense envy towards Ryuu.
Ryuu hugs Tsunade from the waist with his right hand. As his left hand was holding the hand of a beautiful girl, signs of astonishment were appearing on her face as if she was saying how she got here.
"Are you okay, Tsunade?" Ryuu smiled while gently asking.
He hasn't called Tsunade like Tsunade-sensei for a long time so Tsunade wasn't surprised by the way he called her.
"I'm all right." Tsunade felt a little ashamed seeing Ryuu's face close to hers, Ryuu is currently the same height as Tsunade so their faces are facing each other.
'When did this boy become this handsome?' Tsunade turned her face away as her heartbeat increased.
Tsunade knows that Ryuu wants her, and previously due to their relationship as master and disciple, she couldn't accept it.
But Ryuu tried many ways to bring their relationship closer, and slowly and within two years was able to make Tsunade see him as a man rather than as a child or ex-disciple.
"Ryuu-sama, how did we get here." The pretty girl holding Ryuu's hand spoke causing Tsunade to notice her.
"Hikari, you are here too." Tsunade quickly turned away from Ryuu's embrace when she noticed Hikari's presence.
"Yes, Ryuu-sama brought me here." Hikari noticed that Tsunade was looking at her hand intertwined with Ryuu's left hand which made her blush.
"Right, how did you get here so quickly." Tsunade wondered after thinking carefully.
Ryuu wanted to answer that question but a violet mist shot towards them very quickly, Ryuu grabbed Tsunade and Hikari by the waist and then jumped away from the poisonous mist.
'This boy, he carries us in his arms every chance he gets.' Tsunade sighed, but had no resentment or anger at Ryuu's actions.
"Boy, you shouldn't talk too much while you're on a battlefield." Hanzo looked at Ryuu with displeasure, it was the first time his presence had been ignored.
Ryuu coldly looked at Hanzo and was about to make a move to attack him, but Tsunade grabbed him by the arm, "I want to defeat him myself, just give me some time to use my trump."
She knows that Ryuu is very strong and can defeat Hanzo, because she fought Ryuu a month ago and was easily defeated by Ryuu even without his Sharingan.
She just wants to defeat Hanzo herself, she feels humiliated because she fought against him with three people but she almost lost.
"I was planning on defeating him myself, but since you want to do that, it's fine for me." Ryuu didn't care if Hanzo was defeated by him or Tsunade, but he felt sorry that he wouldn't be able to fight Hanzo.
"I will hold him for you, when you are done with your trump you can fight him." Ryuu smiled, and at the same time four people moved around and surrounded Hanzo and the salamander.
"Four Violet Flames Formation"
Before Hanzo did anything, a barrier was formed around him and the barrier was made of purple flames. Hanzo could no longer escape and couldn't get out of the barrier either.
These four people are Ryuu's shadow clones, he used his shadow clone technique as soon as he got here but no one noticed because he used the explosion as a cover for his actions.
Ryuu looked at Jiraiya and Orochimaru while pointing at the Konoha ninja who were still fighting the Ame Ninja, "You can go and help Konoha's forces, don't worry I can keep Hanzo under control."
"You brat, don't give us orders, we are the leaders here." Jiraiya was jealous of Ryuu and when Ryuu started giving them orders, he got annoyed.
Jiraiya tried to pick a fight with Ryuu but just one angry look from Tsunade made him shut up. Orochimaru approached him and pulled him by the collar to the battlefield between Konoha and Ame.
After Jiraiya and Orochimaru left, Tsunade sat on the ground and started meditating.
Ryuu looked at this and was shocked, "Did Tsunade learn the Sage Mode?"
When Tsunade fought Ryuu a month ago she didn't use the Sage Mode against him so he didn't know she had learned it.
Ryuu's presence affected Tsunade and made her want to become stronger, so she asked Katsuyu to teach her the Sage Mode.
