Sakura got goosebumps listening to Naruto's greasy voice, feeling that his tone was just asking for a beating, making her want to punch him in the face.
Naruto, however, didn't realize that his taunt skill could actually affect his teammates. He casually made a hand seal and shouted:
"Listen up, you guys on the other side, you're surrounded!"
Then 365 Little Blondies rushed up, shouting in unison:
"Little Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array!"
If they were facing a hundred Snow Ninjas wearing special armor, these Shadow Clones might not be enough, but against ordinary soldiers, it was a complete and utter rout.
"Great Chu will Prosper, Chen Sheng will be King!"
"Kill Chao Cuo, Clear the Emperor's Entourage!"
"Please Boil Sang Hongyang!"
...
After taking care of the ordinary soldiers in a few minutes, the Shadow Clones didn't stop, shouting all sorts of unreliable slogans as they ran towards Kazahana Dotō.
Sasuke looked at Naruto's helpless expression, jumped down from the earthen wall, and followed behind the Shadow Clones, worried that if he didn't act, there really wouldn't be anything left for him to do.
If it really doesn't work out later, I'll just hit the Shadow Clones too. Maybe he'll be happy if I kill them all...
"To think I have to do this myself against even a brat!" Kazahana Dotō began to form hand seals, but his hand speed was probably only a third of Kakashi's at most:
"Twin Dragons Blizzard!"
Two black dragons made of ice and snow flew out from Kazahana Dotō's hands, strangling dozens of clones, and then converged into a black tornado tens of meters high, almost sweeping away all the clones.
Only a few lucky ones, holding Dango, rushed in front of Kazahana Dotō.
"Don't look down on people!" Kazahana Dotō roared, swinging his heavy arm armor down.
"Crash!" The ice layer within a radius of five or six meters shattered, and the splashing ice shards killed the remaining clones.
This punch had the style of a Super Strength punch. It seemed that the thick arm armor on his arm had a considerable bonus to his strength.
Sasuke, behind him, avoided the tornado with his flexible movements, and completed the hand seals along the way:
"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"
Scorching flames spewed out from Sasuke's mouth, engulfing Kazahana Dotō.
For a time, Kazahana Dotō's vision was filled with red flames, but he didn't panic at all, and even crossed his arms and struck a pose.
About a dozen centimeters outside the armor, an invisible shield offset the flames around him:
"Not bad, brat, this kind of fire is just right to warm me up."
Sasuke had obviously grown a lot. If this were back when he had just graduated, he would definitely have argued a few words about not underestimating the Uchiha, but now he only shouted two words:
"Chidori!"
Kazahana Dotō's attention was attracted by the chirping of birds, and through the slowly dissipating flames, he saw the lightning behind.
However, at this time, Sasuke had already rushed in front of Kazahana Dotō as the flames dissipated, and the Chidori in his hand stabbed towards his chest.
Kazahana Dotō didn't have time to react at all. He subconsciously wanted to raise his arm, but suddenly realized he had armor protecting him.
Sure enough, Sasuke's Chidori stopped ten centimeters away from Kazahana Dotō, unable to advance any further.
Sasuke gritted his teeth and persisted. The sound of the birds grew louder, the lightning brighter, and finally a crack appeared in the core of Kazahana Dotō's chest.
But he also reacted, punching Sasuke with his right fist.
If this blow landed solidly, Sakura Bro would probably have something to do again.
Fortunately, Naruto appeared in time—the Flying Thunder God Kunai he had given Sasuke before came in handy.
Naruto grabbed the back of Sasuke's collar and threw him backward, then kicked off Kazahana Dotō's fist, using the force to fly backward.
This is called Nine Heavens Thunder Double Foot Kick!
In mid-air, Naruto waved his hand and threw another Flying Thunder God Kunai.
Kazahana Dotō tilted his head to dodge the Kunai, wanting to form hand seals and use Ninjutsu to destroy these two little devils, but Naruto had already appeared behind him, holding a Rasengan, ready to give him a righteous kidney shot.
The Rasengan pressed against an invisible shield, being gradually offset. Naruto increased his Chakra output, trying hard to maintain it.
The core, which had been cracked by Sasuke's Chidori, finally couldn't hold on and shattered!
The Chakra shield disappeared, and the Rasengan exploded behind Kazahana Dotō. The armor shattered, and the impact pushed him forward a few steps. He supported himself on the ground with one hand. This black armor was indeed a high-end product for the king, as it still didn't blow him away.
Kazahana Dotō muttered to himself, "I still need to get the Hexagonal Crystal and open the Kazahana family's treasure. How could I..."
Naruto wasn't interested in hearing him finish, so he flew back, picked up Sakura, and said, "Sakura Bro, aim at Sandayu and the others, be careful not to kill them. Can you control the strength?"
Sakura patted her flat chest and said confidently, "Leave it to me!"
So, as soon as Kazahana Dotō turned around, a small fist was imprinted on his chest:
Tsunade's Secret Art: Little Fists Pounding Your Chest Technique.
"Pfft..." Kazahana Dotō screamed, spitting out a mouthful of old blood, and flew directly over the earthen wall to Sandayu's feet.
Sandayu and the people around him stared blankly at the embarrassed Kazahana Dotō, and came back to their senses before he struggled to get up.
Sandayu said with tears streaming down his face, "Kazahana Dotō, this long-standing hatred ends today!"
With that, he raised his knife and stabbed it towards Kazahana Dotō's throat.
Several Samurai also came over and pierced Kazahana Dotō's body with their respective weapons, with tears in their eyes, saying, "Revenge for our fallen comrades!"
"You..." Kazahana Dotō died with his eyes wide open. He didn't expect to be defeated by a few children, and he didn't expect his life to end in the hands of these rabble. He didn't even know what the Kazahana family's treasure was until his death.
Naruto returned to Kakashi's side, "This ending is acceptable, right?"
He died at the hands of the angry people of the Land of Snow, not Konoha ninjas.
"Maybe." Kakashi lowered his Forehead Protector and breathed a sigh of relief.
Naruto couldn't help but complain, "You're just watching, how come you seem more tired than us who were fighting?"
Kakashi glanced at Naruto with dead fish eyes and didn't say anything. This isn't physical fatigue, but mental exhaustion. This troublesome escort mission is finally over. Next time I accept an escort mission, I must investigate it thoroughly!
Kakashi firmly took out his spiritual food from his ninja pouch. Only Make-Out Paradise can bring him a little bit of good mood at this time.
After Sandayu ordered his men to collect the corpses of their companions, he led the rest in a grand salute to Kazahana Koyuki:
"Please, Princess, ascend the throne!"
Kazahana Koyuki stared blankly at Kazahana Dotō's corpse. This culprit who had caused her family's ruin, the shadow of her childhood, had died just like that?
She tightly gripped the Hexagonal Crystal at her chest, pursed her lips, and said, "Before that, I want to go to a place first."
