"Thank you for your help, Lord Hokage."
Shibuki felt his pressure drop dramatically when many of the Rain Village shinobi who had been giving him a huge headache were so easily dealt with.
"Save the thanks until after we handle the current ss."
Tsunade knocked several Rain shinobi unconscious with another punch.
"Then we'll trouble the Hokage over here."
Having said that, Shibuki withdrew from this skirmish and rushed over to where Fu and Suien were fighting.
Kurotsuchi watched Tsunade's fighting style with shining eyes. She didn't bother with lava release this ti; she just swung rock fists trying to imitate Tsunade's feat.
But her strength wasn't enough. After knocking one Rain shinobi away in the chaos, she fell into a fierce fight.
Don't think Tsunade beat one Rain shinobi with a single punch, these Rain shinobi sent on this mission were all skilled. With Kurotsuchi's current level, it was still hard to match Tsunade.
In the end Tsunade ca over and broke Kurotsuchi out of trouble. Before long, the Rain Village fighters were almost all neutralized by Tsunade alone.
"Kurotsuchi, I'll take care of these guys. Use your kekkei genkai to restrain them."
"All right!"
Kurotsuchi had no choice but to start spewing out cent like crazy.
Shibuki charged to the front of Fu and Suien, his body wrapped in water chakra, forming a water tornado that slamd into Suien.
Suien was knocked several ters back, caught off guard.
"How is this possible?"
Suien hadn't expected the Konoha Hokage to appear here, nor that she'd so quickly take out the reinforcents he'd brought from the Rain Village.
But he wasn't too worried, two of the big players he'd invited hadn't acted yet.
"Village elder?"
Fu was more surprised than Suien to see Shibuki suddenly helping her.
"This is thanks to the Konoha Hokage."
Shibuki knew who the real MVP was.
"That Hokage is amazing. I wonder if she could be my friend."
Fu had of course noticed Tsunade's attack.
Shibuki sighed helplessly and reminded her, "Fu, our primary objective right now is to take down Suien."
"No problem!"
Fu waved her hand, "This guy definitely can't beat !"
"Be careful."
Shibuki's tone turned serious, "Suien knows you very well."
Suien had once been the strongest shinobi of the Waterfall Village and was Shibuki's teacher, so he naturally understood the village's greatest trump card, the Seven-Tails, quite well. That was why, with the help of Hero's Water, he could trade blows with Fu. And he'd allied with Rain Village shinobi. Their goals weren't just Hero's Water, they were after the Seven-Tails as well.
"I know!"
Fu agreed but didn't act imdiately, "Watch deal with this guy right away!"
Her insect wings trembled and she leapt into the air.
Shibuki's mouth twitched. Apparently his warning had been for nothing.
"Secret Technique: Scale Powder Concealnt!"
Fu ford hand signs and opened her mouth slightly; countless scale-like powders sprayed out, spreading toward the spot where Suien had just steadied himself.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet!"
As a veteran jonin, Suien's sealing speed was quick. A giant water dragon rose from the lake, scattering the scale powder and snapping toward Fu.
"Takigakure Style: Water Blade!"
Shibuki instantaneously appeared behind Suien, wielding a blade made of water chakra.
Suien sneered at Shibuki's renewed offensive.
"Takigakure Style: Water Blade!"
An identical water blade ford in Suien's hand, a jutsu that required no hand seals.
The two water blades clashed in midair.
But Suien clearly had the upper hand. On collision, cracks appeared on Shibuki's water blade.
"Shibuki, who do you think taught you these techniques?", Suien spat disdainfully.
The next mont another chakra suddenly struck Shibuki's side. His face filled with shock but there was no ti to dodge, a huge fist slamd into his face.
BOOM!
Suien's body rocketed like a shell and embedded itself into the giant tree's roots.
"Such dragging things."
Tsunade calmly flexed her fists. A few Rain shinobi weren't even worth her ti. She'd noticed this guy's chakra pool was frighteningly large and his jutsu impressive, but in an actual fight, she could finish him in a few punches.
"A-amazing!"
After dodging the Water Dragon Bullet and seeing Tsunade embed Suien into the tree with one punch, Fu's eyes glittered and she exclaid excitedly, "Hokage of Konoha, can we be friends?"
"?"
Tsunade looked puzzled, 'This Seven-Tails jinchuriki's train of thought is rather unusual.'
"Fu!"
Shibuki helplessly called her back. He didn't understand why the Konoha Hokage had shown up in the Waterfall Village, but given the current situation she was on their side, which eased his tension sowhat. Still, seeing Fu's boldness made him both amused and exasperated.
Most jinchuriki, shaped by their identity and circumstances, were burdened and bitter. Fu was different, naturally optimistic and always wanting to make friends outside the village. It often gave Shibuki a headache.
"Please, Lord Hokage, don't be angry. Fu's personality is just like that," Shibuki apologized to Tsunade.
Tsunade waved a hand nonchalantly, "It's fine. I rather like this girl's personality."
"Really?", Fu jumped excitedly, "Then can we be friends?"
Tsunade only smiled, "We'll talk friendship later. Your village's crisis isn't resolved yet."
"Huh?"
Shibuki and Fu both froze. Even Suien, the leader, had been beaten into the tree by Tsunade, how was there still a crisis?
"Tsunade, these Rain shinobi are all sealed by my lava technique."
Kurotsuchi, having completed Tsunade's order, walked over. Everyone looked at the group of Rain shinobi whose bodies had been encased in cent, only their heads sticking out.
"Is that your jutsu? Very impressive."
Fu never held back praise.
Kurotsuchi blinked, then couldn't help smiling, "Of course, this is my kekkei genkai!"
Used to pressure from Yakumo and Karin, this rare complint made her happy.
"My na is Fu. Can we be friends?"
Fu reached out her hand.
Kurotsuchi took the offered hand and smiled, "Of course. I'm Kurotsuchi."
Tsunade watched the two with so helplessness,.she'd already said the danger wasn't over.
"Cough! Cough!"
At that mont, Suien still wedged in the tree coughed, spitting out a mouthful of blood and broken teeth. He hadn't expected the Five Kage to be so terrifying, a single punch nearly knocked him unconscious.
'But why hasn't the other two big players acted yet?'
