Naruto: Multiverse Character Templates

The sudden disappearance of the fighting sounds nearby made the two Suna Jonin fighting Nawaki and Kosuke instinctively look over.

When they saw the corpses of the two puppet masters, their hearts sank, followed by disbelief.

How long had it been? Less than a minute, and two Jonin had already died?

At the same time, an even more serious problem was placed before them.

Natsuki would soon join the battle, and the situation would definitely be reversed.

Barring any accidents, they would end up just like the two puppet masters and die on the spot.

Now they had two choices.

One was to flee.

As for the other. The two Suna Jonin exchanged a glance and formed hand signs at the same time.

Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall!

A wall rose up, blocking in front of them and briefly separating them from Kosuke and Nawaki.

Wind Release: Wind Cutter Technique!

A large amount of wind appeared and instantly turned into high-speed wind blades.

But the dense wind blades were not aimed at Kosuke, Nawaki, or Natsuki. They were aimed at the medicine in the distance.

The two Suna Jonin made their choice. They gave up on escaping and chose destruction instead.

"Not good!"

Seeing this, Nawaki could not help but show an anxious expression.

If such a large-scale wave of wind blades landed on the medicine, it would definitely cut all of it apart.

At the critical moment, Natsuki blocked the wind blades.

Armament Haki!

An invisible barrier appeared.

The wind blades crashed into it and immediately produced explosive sounds.

The barrier began to shake violently.

Broken Phantasm!

Natsuki retreated, then threw out two Swords of the Thunder God.

The moment the barrier shattered, the Swords of the Thunder God exploded, blasting the wind blades apart one by one.

"Damn it!"

After failing to destroy the medicine, the two Suna Jonin became angry out of embarrassment.

They formed hand signs again, but this time they attacked Natsuki.

Nawaki snorted coldly and said, "Don't forget about us!"

Water Release: Water Formation Wall!

Kosuke moved first, causing a wall of water to appear in front of Natsuki.

Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!

Nawaki's attack followed closely behind.

Violent Water Release chakra transformed into a water dragon and roared as it flew out.

The Suna Earth Release Jonin switched to another ninjutsu in time.

Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall!

An earth wall rose and blocked the water dragon.

But what he did not notice was that when Kosuke's water wall rose, Natsuki had already disappeared.

His shadow quickly approached the Earth Release Jonin.

White Vine!

Natsuki leaped up, and his entire body turned into smoke, wrapping around the Earth Release Jonin.

Nawaki's eyes lit up.

He gripped the greatsword Samehada and suddenly swung it out.

Samehada: Flying Chain Slash!

The handle of the greatsword Samehada turned into a chain and extended in an instant.

The Earth Release Jonin only felt his vision blur, and the greatsword Samehada was already in front of him.

He struggled desperately, but he could not break free from the smoke Natsuki had turned into.

With a scream, his head was struck by the greatsword Samehada, and blood flowed out.

The other Suna Wind Release Jonin wanted to rescue him, but Kosuke rushed toward him like a fierce gust of wind.

The flash of his blade lit up in the Wind Release Jonin's vision like moonlight.

Wind Release: Shuriken!

His reaction was also fast. As soon as he raised his right hand, shuriken flew toward Kosuke's face.

If Kosuke did not retreat, it would lead to both sides being injured.

Violet Umbrella!

Seeing this, Natsuki, who had released White Vine, immediately seized the opportunity.

A liquid barrier blocked the shuriken.

Kosuke, who had been about to retreat, immediately twisted his wrist.

Konoha-Style: Willow!

This was a Konoha-style sword technique he had created himself. Simply put, it was a combined technique of genjutsu and swordsmanship.

The Wind Release Jonin immediately froze in place and felt unable to move.

He instinctively tried to dispel the genjutsu, but Kosuke had already stabbed out with the blade that would decide life and death.

The Wind Release Jonin lowered his head and saw the ninja blade piercing through his heart.

He then fell into eternal sleep.

"Outside!"

Natsuki gave a reminder, then left the tent.

When both sides fighting outside the tent saw him, they could not help but pause.

For Hyuga Hizashi and the others, it was a pleasant surprise.

But for the Suna shinobi, it was bad news.

This meant that the four Suna Jonin who had gone to poison and destroy the supplies had already failed.

"Retreat!"

With the order given, the Suna shinobi turned and ran.

The reason they were so decisive, aside from the mission failing, was because Tsunade and the others' reinforcements would arrive soon.

"Don't chase them!"

Natsuki shouted.

First, because the Suna shinobi were running very quickly.

Second, he was worried there might be shinobi waiting to support them.

Third, Hizashi and the others were injured.

Fourth, they had already achieved their goal.

"Nonō, help treat them."

Natsuki immediately instructed.

Nonō nodded and walked toward the most heavily injured shinobi.

"Natsuki."

Hizashi hurriedly asked, "How are things on your side?"

"The supplies are all safe and sound. The four Suna Jonin have been killed by us."

Natsuki answered.

Hizashi's expression immediately turned serious.

The four of them had actually killed four Suna Jonin?

He remembered that Nonō and Nawaki were both Chunin.

In other words, Natsuki and Kosuke had killed four Suna Jonin?

Hizashi could not help but be amazed.

That level of strength was truly astonishing.

Just then, the sound of rushing wind rang out.

Tsunade and the others appeared in front of them.

Natsuki felt an even stronger sense of déjà vu.

He had not expected Suna to truly copy the tactic they had used last night without changing a thing.

However, the main reason Suna had succeeded was because Konoha was playing along with them.

"Save the injured!"

Tsunade said, then looked at Natsuki, Nawaki, and the others.

After confirming they were fine, she nodded slightly.

Nawaki asked curiously, "What happened on your side?"

"Rasa led a team to raid us, but after fighting for a few minutes, we drove them back."

Tsunade paused for a moment and said, "Their goal was obvious. They were trying to hold us back."

"That Suna genius Rasa? I heard he can use Magnet Release?"

Nawaki glanced at Natsuki and asked, "Who's stronger, him or Natsuki?"

"It's hard to say."

Tsunade pondered for a moment, somewhat uncertain.

"We'll only know after fighting."

Natsuki chuckled and said.

He was very curious what character template would be triggered by defeating Rasa.

But defeating him would not be easy.

Although Rasa felt like the weakest among the Five Kage, he was still a Kage-level expert.

The performance of Magnet Release was also impressive enough.

Fortunately, he was still young, so his strength was probably not that powerful yet.

"Go to the main tent for a meeting."

After all the injured shinobi received treatment, Tsunade spoke.

Natsuki nodded and followed her to the main tent.

The other Jonin had not arrived yet. Taking advantage of the time, he reviewed what he had gained from this battle.

The first gain was unlocking Bickslow Template's Doll, Heavy Particle Formation.

The second gain was the Nami Template's Weather Arts.

Its unlock condition was to defeat one Jonin of each of the Five Releases.

The four Suna shinobi who came today were respectively one Earth Release user, two Wind Release users, and one Fire Release user.

The two puppet masters Natsuki killed were Wind Release and Fire Release users.

Although neither of them had used Wind Release or Fire Release.

The two Suna Jonin killed by Nawaki and Kosuke were Wind Release and Earth Release users.

Among them, Natsuki had played the main role in killing the Earth Release shinobi, so the system counted it as well.

Now the progress of Weather Arts had reached three-fifths. He only needed to defeat one Lightning Release Jonin and one Water Release Jonin to unlock it.

"The meeting starts now."

Tsunade's voice rang out. "Report the situation."

Natsuki came back to his senses and looked at her.

At this moment, an Anbu shinobi was standing in front of her.

"Tonight, Suna split into three groups and attacked the main camp, the water source, and the medicine and food supply point."

The Anbu shinobi answered, "All three attacks ended in failure."

After that, he reported tonight's casualties.

Compared with Suna, Konoha's shinobi casualties were less than half of theirs. It could be called a great victory.

"Continue strengthening the defenses. Meeting dismissed."

Tsunade did not say much. After listening to the report, she ended the Jonin meeting.

The other Jonin left one after another, and in the end, only Nara Shikaku and Natsuki remained.

"Tsunade-sama."

Shikaku took out a bottle of water and said, "This is water I collected from the water source."

Tsunade nodded and opened a storage summoning scroll.

She then took the water and tested it on the spot.

"No poison?"

Seeing the water had not changed color, Shikaku froze and asked, "Did Suna fail to poison it?"

Tsunade also frowned, clearly finding it unexpected.

"If I were Suna, I definitely wouldn't let the poison take effect immediately."

Natsuki's mind moved, and he said, "Because no matter whether tonight's operation failed or succeeded, we would check the water source and other supplies."

"You mean Suna has already placed the poison, but it hasn't spread yet?"

Tsunade immediately said, "I'm going to the water source to check the situation."

She turned and left.

Natsuki and Shikaku stood where they were and waited.

Time slowly passed.

Tsunade returned to the main tent.

She looked at Natsuki and said, "You guessed right. The poison has already been placed at the bottom of the water, but they used special materials. It won't take effect until tomorrow."

"We underestimated Suna."

Shikaku sighed and said, "They clearly used three attacks as a cover, yet they were still this cautious."

"If we hadn't cracked Chiyo's poison, this might have caused a disaster."

Tsunade nodded and said.

"When will the poison take effect?"

Shikaku asked again.

"Although Chiyo's poison is deadly, after being diluted by the water source, it will probably take effect tomorrow night."

Tsunade paused for a moment and said, "Tomorrow's three meals will also ensure that most of Konoha's shinobi are poisoned."

At the same time, in Suna's main camp.

"Rasa, you did very well."

Chiyo praised him.

"It is what I should do."

Rasa suppressed the excitement in his heart and immediately replied.

"Just in case, tomorrow night, send someone to infiltrate Konoha's main camp and see whether they really have been poisoned."

Chiyo said in a deep voice, "Once most of Konoha's shinobi are poisoned, we will launch an all-out attack!"

"Yes!"

Everyone from Suna answered in unison.
