Konoha: Otsutsuki from the Earth

Seeing Jirobo disappearing from sight with the coffin on his back, Shikamaru smiled and released the transformation technique.

Considering that the opponent was able to escape unharmed after severely injuring the two Jonin of Konoha Village, their team should try to avoid a head-on battle with the four Otogakure.

His purpose from beginning to end was to bring Sasuke back to the village with everyone intact.

Therefore, his battle plan was to extract Jirobo who was carrying Sasuke alone and distance himself from his companions.

Let Chouji and Kiji take back Sasuke one on one, while the others try to hold back the remaining Otogakure ninjas as much as possible. His shadow imitation technique, Qi Fei's ice escape, and Naruto's shadow clone can all be used as much as possible.

Haunt the enemy.

"Next, it's up to you, Choji! Kiba!" Shikamaru formed a seal with his hands and stared nervously at Tayuya in front of him.

"I see, I understand. Do you want to separate us and deal with Jirobo alone?"

Quickly destroying the few remaining shadow clones of Naruto, Kidomaru smiled and said: "Unfortunately, even if Jirobo is the weakest among us, it is not something you people can defeat."

Originally, the four Otongakure were still worried whether the companions of the two jonins from before had caught up with them.

In order to deal with the Jonin, everyone conserved their energy as much as possible and planned to fight each other as much as possible.

I just didn't expect that the people chasing after me were a group of children, children who were not even chuunin.

Although they were put in a difficult position, they were very experienced and quickly figured out the real details of Shikamaru, Naruto and others.

"A bunch of garbage, don't underestimate us!" He tried his best to break free, and the curse mark began to creep up on Tayuya's face.

"Damn it..." Tayuya's violent struggle reduced the duration of Shikamaru's shadow imitation technique by about half.

"Just deal with you here, and then go find Jirobo." Sakon also wanted to use the power of the curse seal, but then his expression changed and he said, "How could that happen?!"

He found that his physical strength and chakra were draining away rapidly, being absorbed by the Tengman who tied him up.

He wanted to wake up his brother Ukon to help break free, but the frozen Ukon seemed to be sleeping and did not respond to Sakon's call.

"Ninpo: Spider Nest Flower." The spider webs sprayed out from Kidomaru's mouth instantly covered the only remaining Naruto in front of him, fixing him firmly to the tree trunk.

"You should be the main body." Kidomaru spat out the metal slime, then shaped it into a sharp kunai and said with a smile, "Let's start with you."

"Naruto!"

Poof - the kunai projected by Kidomaru pierced deeply into Naruto's chest, and blood flowed out along the kunai.

"Hahaha! Whose turn is it next?" Kidomaru pinched two kunai again, turned to look at Shikamaru and the other "Naruto" and said.

"I will never let you take Sasuke away!" Naruto's voice suddenly came from behind Kidomaru's head, "Rasengan!"

"What?!" Kidomaru turned around quickly and saw Naruto falling from the sky, hitting himself with the violent chakra ball in his hand.

Boom - The violent chakra contained in the Rasengan directly blew Kidomaru away, smashing several branches and falling heavily to the ground.

"Hufufu..." Using shadow clones and Rasengan continuously, even Naruto felt a little tired.

Qi Fei warned everyone before catching up with the four Sound Ninjas that those four Sound Ninjas were powerful enough to cast a barrier and trap the Third Hokage.

Shikamaru also formulated the current tactics under Qi Fei's warning. The intention was to ensure that everyone in the team was surrounded by a teammate at all times. In this way, even if they were weak and failed, they could still escape with mutual cooperation.

Therefore, Naruto used his best shadow clone technique as soon as he came up, and seized the opportunity to directly hit the opponent with the Rasengan.

Now, Shikamaru's battle plan was half successful, and the three sound ninjas were successfully dragged here.

"Ga, Choji, you must take Sasuke back." Naruto looked at the direction where Jirobo disappeared and prayed in his heart.

He originally hoped to snatch Sasuke back from Jirobo himself.

However, according to Shikamaru's analysis, Choji and Kiba did not have the ability to "retain people", so the three of them could only be responsible for buying time. Naruto could only respect Shikamaru's arrangement.

"It's a very dangerous thing. If it weren't for the gold-glued armor, I might have died."

He directly peeled off the branches and leaves covering his body, and the evil ghost-like Kidomaru climbed up from the ground.

At this time, his skin turned black, a horn grew on each of his six arms, his hair turned white and stood up high, and a third eye grew on his forehead.

There were many fragments of hardened metal mucus hanging on his body, and there were spiral scars on his chest that were healing rapidly.

"Hey! It's time for you two to do your part!" Kidomaru shouted to Sakon and Tayuya.

"Right now, this rubbish ninjutsu can't hold on any longer." Tayuya began to move his body forcibly, and Shikamaru began to sweat on his forehead.

"Be careful...this guy's...ninjutsu..." Sakon said with difficulty. As his physical strength and chakra were absorbed, his body gradually lost its combat effectiveness.

After hearing Sakon's words and seeing Sakon's weird behavior, Kidomaru immediately hid behind a nearby tree trunk, formed a giant bow out of metal slime, spit out a giant long arrow, and aimed at Qi Fei who had been standing next to Sakon.

.

KICK KICK - Just when Kidomaru was about to shoot the arrow, the tree trunk in front of him suddenly sprouted countless arms-thick branches, wrapping around Kidomaru from all directions.

"Is there something wrong with these branches?" Looking at the branches in front of him and thinking of the Fujiman wrapped around Sakon, Kidomaru quickly guessed the problem and gave up shooting without hesitation and jumped away.

At the same time, Tayuya, who had been wrestling with Shikamaru, directly transformed into the second stage of the Curse Seal. Her skin and eyes turned black, and white horns grew on her head.

Tayuya, who was in the second stage of the curse seal, used the power that Shikamaru had no time to react to break away from Shikamaru's shadow imitation technique. He took out his flute and started playing: "Woooooo~"

The next moment, Shikamaru next to Tayuya suddenly felt dizzy: "Is it a genjutsu?"

Kick-kick-kick--the same thick branches grew under Tayuya's feet and wrapped around her directly.

Helpless, Tayuya could only give up playing the flute and leave Shikamaru's side.

"That's great..." Shikamaru said thankfully as the surrounding environment returned to normal.

Tayuya jumped several times and jumped near Kidomaru and said, "That guy who hasn't moved all the time is very weird."

"Yeah, that's right." Kidomaru recalled the scene when he tried to use the golden kunai to cut those branches, but was directly bounced away by the branches. He was tenacious beyond imagination.

"Shikamaru, are you okay?" Naruto came to Shikamaru after finishing his rest and asked concernedly.

"It's okay." Looking at the demon-like appearance of Tayuya and Kidomaru, Shikamaru analyzed: "That form can increase their strength and chakra. But it's okay, at least we don't have to confront them head-on, we just need to delay time.

"

Glancing at Qi Fei's position and seeing that Qi Fei was still suppressing Sakon steadily, Shikamaru turned his attention to Kidomaru and Tayuya.

Qi Fei here is just a clone, and it is enough to be able to suppress an enemy steadily like this. Shikamaru has never been extravagant about what a clone can do.

The victory or defeat on their side doesn't matter, as long as they can escape unharmed when the time comes.

Next, just wait for the results of Kiba and Choji.
