Chiyama Gekko finally understood just how terrifying Konoha's White Fang was.

In a state of complete fury, the Konoha's White Fang in his hands had completely transformed into the sickle of the Shinigami.

His entire body was surrounded by Lightning Bolt chakra. This use of chakra made Chiyama Gekko couldn't help but think of the Third and Fourth Raikages.

Although the lightning-attributed chakra possession of Konoha's White Fang wasn't as terrifying as that of the opponents, it still greatly stimulated himself.

Even when facing the siege of dozens of people, that white figure shuttled through the center of the crowd relying on its super speed.

Whether the opponents threw Shuriken, Explosive Tags, or launched ninjutsu, he would just cut them down with a single strike.

The sword skills of the Hatake family had no fancy movements. It was all about the ability to kill the enemy with one strike!

"Don't be affected by his speed. Spread out and cover him with ninjutsu!"

As the person on the field who knew Konoha's White Fang best, Chiyo gave the order immediately.

Upon hearing the order, the Sunagakure ninjas instantly scattered outward.

All kinds of ninjutsu were hurled at Konoha's White Fang like a torrential rain.

"Fire Release! Fireball Technique!"

"Wind Release! Wind Cutting Technique!"

"Wind Release! Dust Technique!"

"Wind Release! Great Gale Breakthrough!"

The ninjutsu mainly consisted of Wind Release and Fire Release. Both of these types of ninjutsu were highly lethal.

Moreover, Fire Release could be enhanced by Wind Release.

For a moment, the overwhelming flames covered the area where Sakumo Hatake was located.

"Damn it, I have to go and help Lord Sakumo!"

Despite his injuries, Dotetsu was on the verge of rushing out to fight.

But Chiyama Gekko was quick-eyed and caught him.

"If you go, you'll just be causing trouble!"

"With Lord Sakumo alone, he can easily take out a few people and break through the encirclement!"

"If you go, he'll have to be distracted to take care of you!"

"By then, none of us will be able to escape!"

Hearing Chiyama Gekko's sharp scolding, Dotetsu's originally angry heart gradually subsided, and a hint of helplessness appeared on his face.

"Damn it!"

In the face of his angry outburst, Chiyama Gekko ignored him.

Instead, he watched the battle even more intently.

Facing the monstrous flames, Sakumo Hatake showed no fear at all.

"First form of the Hatake sword skills! Cut!"

An ordinary name for an ordinary move.

It was just a simple downward cut.

But when this strike was used by Sakumo Hatake, it was a different story.

The Konoha's White Fang blade emitted a blinding light, which was a sign that the chakra had been pushed to the limit.

With one cut, the flames disappeared and the strong wind subsided.

"Second form of the Hatake sword skills! Swing!"

The strike shifted from a vertical cut to a horizontal sweep.

This strike carried unparalleled power, as if it was about to split everything in front of it in two.

"Everyone, get behind my Puppets!"

"This strike is not something you can withstand!"

Chiyo put her hands together, and ten Puppets instantly spread their arms.

"Puppet Technique · Secret Light Shield Formation!"

In an instant, ten blue - glowing shields materialized.

The Sunagakure ninjas immediately hid behind the Puppets.

As this strike was swung out.

The terrifying Zangei struck the shields instantly.

Chiyo shuddered all over, gritted her teeth, and desperately released chakra to maintain the defense.

"Humph!"

Seeing that his second strike was blocked, Sakumo Hatake felt extremely annoyed.

Just as he was about to draw his third blade, a voice sounded in his mind.

"Stop fighting! Seize the opportunity and run!"

It was the voice of Chiyama Gekko. Evidently, he sent the voice to him through Heiichi Yamanaka's Mind Body Transmission Technique.

Recalling the method Chiyama Gekko mentioned earlier, Sakumo Hatake gritted his teeth hard.

Looking at the group of Sunagakure ninjas, he was very reluctant to leave!

He really wanted to defeat them all!

But he couldn't. In order to lead his team members to safety, he forcefully suppressed the urge to continue fighting.

Then, he sprinted forcefully in the direction of Konoha.

Pouring all his chakra into his feet, Sakumo Hatake shot forward like a rocket.

"Alright, Lord Sakumo has left."

"Next, we just need to wait for him to run a certain distance, and then I'll use the [Flying Thunder God Technique] to take you all away."

Chiyama Gekko let out a sigh of relief as he watched Sakumo Hatake disappear.

He was really afraid that Sakumo Hatake would lose his cool.

"Damn Konoha's White Fang! He actually fled!"

"Damn it! Damn it!"

Chiyo had just lifted her defenses when she realized that Sakumo Hatake had escaped.

This really made her angry.

"Everyone, charge in and kill the rest of them! Bring Yugura back!"

Chiyo knew very well that none of them could catch up with Konoha's White Fang, who was running for his life.

She could only complete the current task first.

Who would have thought that right at this moment, a figure slowly emerged from the ruins.

Moreover, in his arms was Yugura, an elite jōnin from their Sunagakure.

"Hey hey hey, don't be impulsive. The person you want is in my hands."

"Don't come any closer, or I'll really do it."

Chiyama Gekko put a Kunai against Yugura's neck, looking as if he would go all out and die together if things didn't go his way.

Originally, he didn't want to show up, but in order to buy everyone some time, he still chose to come out.

"Humph! Brat from Konoha! Let Yugura go! I'll spare your life!"

"Sakumo Hatake has already abandoned you and fled! There's no need for you to sacrifice yourselves for such a person!"

Chiyo raised her hand to stop the others. In her opinion, the few Konoha ninjas in front of her were already in the bag and had no chance of escaping.

Rather than killing them, it would be better to try and get some information about Konoha from them.

"You're absolutely right. Sakumo Hatake actually abandoned us and ran away on his own!"

"I despise being from the same village as such a person!"

Here comes the actor Chiyama Gekko, and his performance was perfect.

His face was full of grief and indignation, and his trembling hands left no doubt that he was angry with Sakumo Hatake.

"My lord, things have come to this. I wonder if Sunagakure is willing to take us in!"

"We're all abandoned. Instead of being abandoned by Konoha, I'd rather join Sunagakure!"

"Then, I'll take revenge on Konoha severely!"

Chiyama Gekko exclaimed excitedly.

Everyone who heard his words was stunned.

Even Chiyo was a bit confused. Is this kid really a ninja? How could he defect to the enemy on the battlefield?

"Damn it! What are you talking nonsense about!"

Even Dotetsu and the others behind him were deceived and scolded him loudly.

Surprisingly, Chiyo felt relieved.

The kid in front of her was just a teenager in his teens. It's perfectly normal for someone at this age not to want to die.

"Humph! Being a ninja from Konoha, how could you be such a coward!"

"You're really shaming all the former Hokages!"

Chiyo despised Chiyama Gekko's actions.

She was haughty and couldn't stand cowards the most.

She never expected that not only did she fail to kill Konoha's White Fang today, but she also ran into such a cowardly ninja. It really pissed her off.

"Hey, hey, hey! That's not fair to say."

"I didn't shame the Hokage. Didn't I gain a lot of time?"

"Am I right, Lady Chiyo?"

Chiyama Gekko's tone suddenly shifted. His expression changed from one of grief and indignation at first to one full of mockery.

He sensed that Sakumo Hatake had stopped. Now it's his Showtime!
