Naruto: Five Lives, Five Times the Excitement

Chapter 106 Minato Namikaze's Dilemma

"Damn it, this is the last military ration pill!"

Minato Namikaze hid behind a rock, ate some military rations, and suddenly heard birds chirping. He immediately looked up and saw birds flying in the sky, his brows furrowing deeply.

"We've been spotted again!"

In the past few days, facing the pursuit of the Sand Ninja, Minato Namikaze has witnessed all sorts of Sand Ninja reconnaissance methods.

Among them are ninjas with powerful sensory abilities, various summoning beasts and puppets, and certain mysterious bloodline limits and ninjutsu, all of which can help him find his trail.

The other Konoha ninjas who had infiltrated the Land of Wind had all been eliminated, so the Sand ninjas began to concentrate their efforts on pursuing Minato Namikaze.

Currently, the number of Sand Ninja chasing Minato Namikaze has reached four hundred.

"Enemy detected!"

After obtaining Minato Namikaze's location, Rasa immediately ordered his men to pursue him and made meticulous arrangements.

"The enemy knows space-time ninjutsu and can instantly teleport, so we need to make targeted arrangements. Pursuit team ninjas, you need to keep attacking the enemy and deplete their stamina and chakra."

"Reconnaissance ninjas, use the enemy's location as the center and expand the reconnaissance range. Once the enemy uses space-time ninjutsu to move, you must discover it in time and report it."

"The encirclement team will continue to maintain a wide-ranging encirclement. Once they discover that the enemy is trying to escape or receive information from the reconnaissance team, they will do everything possible to restrain the enemy and create opportunities for the pursuit team!"

"And the puppet troops, your mission is to restrain the enemy's summoned beasts and reduce the damage they cause us."

"Yes!"

Upon receiving the order, the Sand Ninja quickly sprang into action.

In the past few days, facing the encirclement and suppression of the Sand Ninja, Minato Namikaze not only refused to die obediently, but also destroyed several warehouses and killed many Sand Ninja.

This was a huge slap in the face to Rasa and the Sand Village!

From Rasa down to every Sand Village ninja, they are now relentlessly pursuing him like mad dogs, vowing to kill Minato Namikaze.

Their tactics are simple: your space-time ninjutsu is powerful, so you can run away if you can't win, but there are still distance limitations, and it also consumes chakra.

We'll relentlessly pursue you, forcing you to constantly use space-time ninjutsu. Eventually, your chakra will run out, and then we'll be able to settle our score!

"Spiral pills!"

Minato Namikaze knocked a Sand Ninja away, and a puppet appeared behind him, spewing out a large cloud of poison gas.

The poison gas instantly enveloped an area of ​​dozens of meters around him, and Minato Namikaze was unable to escape in a short time. With no other choice, he used the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport behind a Sand Ninja. Before the opponent could react, he killed him with a kunai.

"Damn it, I'm running out of chakra. I can only use Flying Thunder God Technique once more. These Sand Ninja are really troublesome."

Minato Namikaze was slightly out of breath, his gaze deep and unfathomable as he looked at the growing number of Sand Ninja gathering around him.

At this moment, Luo Sha also arrived.

"Minato Namikaze, you're so troublesome at such a young age. You'll definitely become a powerful ninja in the future. Unfortunately, you're not one of our Sand Village ninjas, so we have no choice but to kill you. We will absolutely not let you leave here!"

Luo Sha waved his hand, and a row of puppeteers stepped forward.

"Use the puppets to continue wearing down his chakra, while the rest of you maintain the encirclement. We absolutely cannot let him escape using space-time ninjutsu!"

"Yes!"

The puppeteers manipulated their puppets and began to besiege Minato Namikaze, while some Sand Ninja protected the puppeteers' safety.

The puppeteer's greatest advantage is that they are not afraid of being consumed; if a puppet is destroyed, a new puppet will be sent out.

As a puppeteer, who doesn't have some spare puppets?

An hour passed, and the setting sun painted the desert red.

Minato Namikaze was surrounded by broken puppets, and he had many wounds on his body and was poisoned.

The kunai in Minato's hand was now only half intact, its smooth cut surface telling the story of the sharp attack it had just suffered, and also illustrating the breathtaking nature of the battle.

Meanwhile, the number of Sand Ninja in the surrounding area had increased to seven hundred.

Luo Sha glanced at the setting sun and ordered a general offensive.

"Nighttime will increase his chances of escape. It's time to find out what's going on, launch a full-scale attack, and kill him!"

Upon receiving the order, the Sand Ninja surged towards Minato Namikaze from all directions like waves.

As the toxin continued to spread, Minato Namikaze felt his four limbs begin to stiffen, his mind became sluggish, and even his vision began to blur.

"I promised her I would become Hokage and get married, so I absolutely cannot stop here!"

Minato Namikaze dropped the broken kunai, bent down to pick up a short sword, and with all his might, charged towards the Sand Ninja!

Desert, sunset.

Seven hundred people.

one person.

Minato Namikaze's shadow was reflected on the sand, tall and unyielding.

Blood splattered into the air and then splashed onto the yellow desert.

Minato Namikaze killed one enemy after another, but was eventually shot in the right leg by a shuriken and fell down. Just as he got up, a flash of light appeared in front of him.

A Sand Ninja, his eyes filled with hatred, gripped a massive longsword and slashed down with all his might.

"Damn bastard, I'll avenge my fallen comrades! Die!"

"Spiral pills!"

To Minato's astonishment, Kyosuke appeared behind the Sand Ninja and sent them flying with a Rasengan.

What are you doing here! Get out of here!

Upon seeing Kyosuke, Minato Namikaze felt no joy, but rather some anger.

"Idiot, my order was to send Kakashi and the others back! How dare you disobey my orders!"

When Kyosuke first heard Minato Namikaze's scolding, he didn't take it to heart. Instead, he took out gauze to bandage the wound on Minato's leg.

“Teacher, the Hokage’s order is to destroy the Sand Village’s rear, not to send Kakashi and the others back. Your orders are different. Of course I have to obey the Hokage’s orders. It’s your fault for being so useless. You’re still not the Hokage.”

After bandaging the wound, Kyosuke used both hands to tie a tight knot, causing Minato Namikaze's mouth to twitch in pain.

This traitorous disciple definitely used such great force on purpose, just to retaliate against me for insulting him.

"Moreover, teacher, you often say I'm a genius, but you don't know that I'm not just a genius, I'm a genius among geniuses!"

At this moment, Rasa saw that there was only one person rescuing Minato Namikaze, and that was a young boy ninja. He snorted coldly.

"What idiots! They're about to die and they're still spouting nonsense! Let's kill them all!"

After Rasa gave the order, the Sand Ninjas around him did not move, but instead looked behind them, very angry.

"Did you hear me? Attack!"

A Sand Ninja pointed a finger at Rasa's back, his voice trembling slightly.

"Lord Luo Sha, look..."

"What's there to see? Do you think the Konoha ninjas could fly all the way here...? This is... impossible..."

Luo Sha turned his head in dissatisfaction, and when he saw the scene behind him, his eyes widened instantly.

On a long stretch of sand dunes stood thousands of Kyosuke's shadow clones.

"How is this possible? How can he possess such terrifying chakra!"

Kyosuke's shadow clones have already begun their charge.

"Spiral pills!"

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"

"Watch out, Sand Ninja! I have explosive tags stuck to my body. Don't blame me for not warning you!"

The vast array of shadow clones, employing a variety of attack methods, instantly crashed into the Sand Ninja's encirclement.
