Chapter 119 - 119

119: Chapter 119 Rescuing YunyinAs dawn broke, light filtered through the paper frames of the sliding door, casting dappled patterns of light into the dimly lit room.

Temari's eyelashes trembled as she slowly woke up, her body throbbing with dull pain.She then realized that she was practically clinging to him.

A wave of heat washed over her face, and like a startled rabbit, she carefully and slowly moved off Naruto.

The movement was very light and slow, but it still made a soft "bo" sound, which was particularly clear in the quiet morning.

She glanced quickly at Naruto and saw that his eyes were closed and his breathing was even, as if he was still asleep, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.

Despite the discomfort, she tiptoed to the cold floor, shivered, and her mind cleared considerably.

She walked barefoot over her wrinkled, pale yellow casual clothes, her face burning again, and she cursed herself inwardly as a 'crazy woman'.

She tiptoed to the wardrobe in the corner of the room and quickly changed into her usual mesh ninja dress.The familiar clothes brought back some of her former pride.

After everything was tidied up, she walked to the door, placed her hand on the sliding door, and couldn't help but look back one last time.

Naruto looked peaceful and harmless as he slept soundly, with a faint, mischievous smile on his lips.

She pursed her lips, her heart filled with mixed emotions, and gently closed the sliding door.

"Click".

As soon as I stepped outside, a graceful figure immediately came into view.

Samui changed into a set of specially made armor.The metal plates were polished to a bright shine, gleaming coldly.In particular, the amazing curve in front of his body was made even more impactful by the metal.

The two women's eyes met in mid-air.

Temari paused, raised her chin, and glanced over Samui's heavy armor, lingering for a moment, especially on the armor that seemed to have "I'm fierce" as its logo.

She let out a faint hum, almost imperceptible, through her nose—it was hard to tell if it was a provocation or something else—and walked straight past her, her skirt billowing in a small breeze, heading off to find Gaara.

Naruto slowly opened his eyes.

There was no sleepiness in his eyes, but rather a sense of being completely exhausted.

He stared at the ceiling, took a few long breaths, and the smell of alcohol still lingered in the air.

He frowned, disliking the overly strong lingering smell, so he got up, walked to the window, and opened it.

The fresh air rushed in, and my spirits lifted.

He looked at the tattered shirt on the ground, shook his head helplessly, and said to the door in a low voice, "Samui, go find a new set of clothes."

Sam responded with a "Yes," and the sound of his footsteps gradually faded away.

Before long, Sami returned with a brand new set of sportswear.

She walked into the room with her head down and eyes fixed straight ahead, placing the clothes next to Naruto without glancing at any other part of the room.

After getting ready, Naruto took Samui to the dock to see them off.

The sea breeze was blowing fiercely on the pier.

Gaara still looked mature beyond his years, while Temari seemed particularly uncomfortable.

When she is sober, she is completely unable to be as "bold" as when she is drunk.

Her eyes darted around, and especially with her younger brother there, she felt extremely uncomfortable and didn't dare to look at Naruto at all.

"I'm leaving," Gaara waved.

Naruto touched his nose, feeling that the morning air was a little too quiet.

"Ah, be careful on the road."

Temari then turned her gaze back, quickly stealing a glance at his face before abruptly looking away, her tone firm, "Next time.next time we spar, I won't lose!"

Naruto's eye twitched, and he felt the soreness in his back resurface.

"Yes, no problem, no problem."

"Um.have a safe journey.I will send someone to coordinate with Sunagakure regarding the specific details of the joint resistance against Akatsuki later."

Temari hummed a soft syllable through her nose in response.

Just then, a fragrant breeze wafted by.

Mei Terumi, swaying gracefully in her high heels, walked to Naruto's side and naturally reached out to straighten his clothes, her voice soft and sweet, "President~ Is the Kazekage leaving already?"

She was wearing a light blue dress today, and she was smiling as she looked at Temari and Gaara.

Temari watched as Mei Terumi almost touched Naruto's back, and her teeth started itching again.She wished she could jump off the boat again and beat this "vixen" up.

In the end, he clenched his fists, turned around angrily, and walked into the cabin, wanting to avoid seeing it and getting annoyed.

The ship carrying the Fengying siblings slowly sailed away from the port.

Naruto watched the ship disappear into the sea, then turned to Mei Terumi, who was very close by, and instructed her: "Make contact with the Hidden Cloud Village.They have just suffered a great disaster.Our Wave Country Merchant Guild will prioritize supplying them with food, medicine, and daily necessities at cost price to support their reconstruction."

"Yes, President~" Mei Terumi replied sweetly, a smile playing on her lips.

"This is a great opportunity to help in times of need, and it will also put Samyi's mind at ease."

Samyi tried to straighten his back.

"The Hidden Clouds will remember this kindness."

This armor, designed to demonstrate one's resolve, is hardly comfortable.

It was so hot and humid that sweat seeped out from the gaps in the armor.

Mei Terumi's small nose twitched slightly, her smile softened, and without saying anything more, she swayed her hips to carry out Naruto's orders.

The operation to support the Hidden Cloud Village was quickly launched.

Merchant ships from the Land of Waves, laden with grain, cloth, and building materials, were continuously transported to the Hidden Cloud Village.

These items are truly life-saving supplies for the Cloud Village right now.

Jiraiya also made a statement from Konoha.

Jiraiya dispatched Yamato, who possessed the Wood Release bloodline limit, to lead a construction support team composed of Chunin and Genin to the ruins of Kumogakure to help plan the reconstruction and quickly build temporary shelters and fortifications using the power of Wood Release.

This is both a matter of ally loyalty and a sign of strength.exhibit.

As night deepened, the hustle and bustle of Konoha Village faded away.

Kakashi, clutching the latest issue of "Icha Icha Paradise," lazily scanned the street scene with his one eye, slowly strolling towards home.

Despite appearing relaxed after the previous sneak attack, his Sharingan maintained a minimum level of vigilance.

Just as he turned into that familiar, quiet alley leading to his own cottage, the space in front of him began to distort and spin out of thin air.

"here we go again."

Kakashi's heart sank, and he instantly closed the Icha Icha Paradise in his hand and stuffed it back into his ninja tool pouch, while his right hand almost simultaneously reached for a kunai.

The figure in the black robe and swirling mask reappeared from the void.

However, even Kakashi, who was very knowledgeable, couldn't help but twitch his lips at this sight.

His appearance at that moment was truly.indescribable.

The black robe could not completely conceal the ever-shimmering blue light emanating from his entire body.

Especially in this dimly lit alley, he looked like a fully charged humanoid self-propelled neon light, making it hard not to attract attention.

He was clearly not used to his new skin, and his movements seemed somewhat impatient due to the omnipresent light.

The moment he appeared, he didn't waste any words.His five fingers formed a hook, and he grabbed directly at Kakashi's face!His target was clear—to gouge out Kakashi's eyes!

"!"

Kakashi's pupils contracted sharply.Although it wasn't the first time he had been attacked, the way this guy was glowing was so shocking that he was momentarily stunned.

In the face of life and death, the instinct honed through years of fighting overwhelmed all other thoughts.

Almost entirely by muscle memory, he leaned back sharply, quickly dodging in a rather unsightly but extremely practical iron bridge maneuver!

"Sizzle!"

A cold gust of wind brushed past his mask, shaving off a few strands of his silver hair and leaving a bloody gash on his cheek from the sharp chakra.

Obito, undeterred by his missed attack, lunged forward again, aiming his claw at Kakashi's eye once more, his persistence terrifying.

The blue light emanating from his body trailed blurry streaks in the air as he moved rapidly.

Kakashi had already reacted, his Sharingan spinning rapidly, observing Obito's every subtle movement.

For a time, the two fought at a rapid pace in the narrow alley, their figures intertwined, and the sounds of metal clashing and clothes tearing in the wind were incessant.

The glowing code on Obito's body that could not be turned off became Kakashi's best guide.

No matter how fast he was or how unpredictable his attacks were, the striking blue light he exuded revealed his position and intentions.

This allowed Kakashi to narrowly avoid those deadly attacks aimed directly at his eyes.

The chakra fluctuations and the flashing blue light in the night quickly attracted the attention of patrolling ninjas nearby.

"Over there!It's so bright!Something's up!" a voice exclaimed.

Almost the next second after the sound was heard.

"Kakashi!" A loud, booming roar came from the rooftop.

Jiraiya appeared on the rooftop.He had obviously been drawn there by the light as well.Looking at the "glowing figure" below, he raised an eyebrow and said, "It's you again, you persistent ghost!"

At the same time, a green whirlwind swept in!"Kakashi, I'm here to help you!" Might Guy gave a thumbs up, his white teeth almost dazzling under the reflection of Obito's blue light.

Obito's face under the mask was almost distorted.

He hadn't expected this ghostly aura to be so conspicuous!In the blink of an eye, two more troublesome individuals appeared, and he began to consider retreating.

But would Jiraiya and Guy give him that chance?

"Ninja Art: Lion's Mane Technique!"

Jiraiya's white hair swept over Obito, blocking his escape route.

"Konoha Power Cyclone!"

Kai's whip kick swept down to his waist with tremendous force.

Obito was so angry he felt like vomiting blood.He had no choice but to interrupt his technique, awkwardly dodging the white-haired man and taking a kick from Guy.

"Damn it!You're ganging up on us!" Obito fought and retreated, the blue light around him flashing faster with his anger, like a human-shaped disco ball.

"Who the hell talks to you about chivalry!" Jiraiya cursed as he fought."You think you can bully Kakashi of Konoha because he has no one to protect him?Let's see where you run now!"

The four men were fighting fiercely in the narrow alley.

Facing the combined attack of a legendary Sannin, a Kage-level fighter, and a taijutsu maniac, and with a continuously glowing debuff on him, he couldn't gain any advantage and was forced into a perilous situation, with several parts of his black robe being burned.

Finally, thanks to his thick skin and the solid kick from Kai, he disappeared into the distorted space, enveloped in a shimmering blue light.
