Chapter 354: Takuya, You're Finally Here



"Yes, indeed."

Uchiha Fugaku's face stiffened, revealing a bitter smile.

"I wonder when the Uchiha clan will finally gain true freedom."

Uchiha Mikoto remained silent, not saying a word. These matters were beyond her ability to change or solve. Since she couldn't intervene or find a solution, why bother overthinking it?

"It's said that Takuya has a close relationship with Kushina and Lady Tsunade..."

"Who do you think he will marry? Have you thought about it?"

"I don't know."

Uchiha Mikoto shook her head and sighed. "All I know is that he won't let me down. As for everything else, I don't care to think about it. It's too much of a headache."

Why can't I have luck like that?

Uchiha Fugaku could only gaze longingly at the sky. He didn't have the freedom to choose his marriage, which was for strengthening his power through alliances. But Takuya? He did whatever he wanted, maintaining relationships with multiple women without any of them raising a fuss. It was absurd.

Minato arrived at the coastline battlefield with Takuya after leaving the Land of Bears.

The scene before them left them both confused.

The camp was flooded? If they hadn't reacted quickly, they would have fallen right into the water.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The camp was submerged, but what was more startling was the intense smell of blood. The battle had clearly been fierce.

When they spotted the two colossal beasts covered in crimson chakra rampaging through the battlefield, Minato's eyes widened, and even Takuya was taken aback.

"Aren't those the Three-Tails and Six-Tails? Am I seeing this wrong?"

"I wish I were wrong too," Minato murmured, forcing a smile. "It seems Kirigakure has given Orochimaru quite a surprise."

"This is just insane."

"A big surprise indeed."

Standing on the water, looking at the furious tailed beasts from afar, along with Jiraiya and Orochimaru trying to delay them with a group of shinobi, Takuya nudged Minato.

"Didn't you say you wanted to become a Jinchuriki once? Here's your chance. Want to give it a shot?"

"Get lost!"

Minato's face twitched, and he protested, "I never said that. My chakra is more than enough; I don't need to be a Jinchuriki."

Coward! Just admit you're scared. Even you, the ever-cheerful Minato, can get scared. Everyone has moments of fear, even Takuya. Right now, he had no desire to fight two tailed beasts, even though he had the strength to face them.

"Roar!!!"

Compared to the slow-moving Six-Tails, the Three-Tails was becoming increasingly agitated as Jiraiya, with several other jonin, continued to drag it around. It began to gather a Tailed Beast Bomb.

In Sage Mode, Jiraiya's eyelids twitched as he shouted, "Everyone, get back!"

On the other side, Orochimaru was also trying to hold off the Six-Tails, but he was clearly worse off than Jiraiya.

His clothes were in tatters, with visible holes from acid corrosion. From a distance, one could even glimpse his raw, bloody flesh.

The two tailed beasts had indeed given Orochimaru a "grand surprise," causing him to stumble in a battle for which he was totally unprepared. This battle would certainly leave a deep impression on him.

"Sensei, watch out!"

To ensure the safety of others, Jiraiya was trying to keep the Three-Tails' attention. When it fired a Tailed Beast Bomb, Minato shouted and disappeared, appearing next to Jiraiya to whisk him away.

"Boom!!!"

Using Samehada to strike down the Three-Tails?

Forget it.

Samehada was actually loyal to the Three-Tails.

Looking at Samehada, Takuya shook his head, abandoning that idea.

"Hey, big guy, where do you think you're going?"

Just as the Three-Tails' attention shifted back to Jiraiya, Takuya threw a lightning explosive

at it. The Three-Tails, being adept with Water Release, was vulnerable to lightning. Sensing danger, the massive creature turned its body instantly, moving with surprising speed.

"Boom!!!"

A loud explosion echoed. Despite its renowned defense, the Three-Tails let out a roar as a blackened mark appeared on its thick shell from the lightning blast.

Intelligence really does make a difference.

Seeing the disheveled states of Jiraiya and Orochimaru, Takuya couldn't help but smile.

He remembered that in the original story, Deidara had managed to bring down the Three-

Tails.

Of course, the Akatsuki had gathered a lot of information and had specific plans, allowing them to efficiently capture tailed beasts. That wasn't to say that Jiraiya or Orochimaru weren't

strong; they just lacked the information and the right tools for the task.

Without these, they were at a disadvantage when facing the tailed beasts.

"Finally, you're here."

Hearing the explosion, Orochimaru quickly retreated. Minato brought Jiraiya over to him, and

Orochimaru, out of breath, told Minato,

"Minato, take me away slowly while attracting its attention. Jiraiya, you go get the others to evacuate. Once everything is done, regroup."

"And get the injured out quickly. I've already sent our people to move essential supplies."

"Got it. Be careful."

Jiraiya nodded, looking at the battered Orochimaru. He couldn't help but smile.

How tragic-he was even worse off than me.

Orochimaru felt somewhat insulted by that, but there was no time to argue.

With Minato's help, both of them swiftly withdrew. The furious Six-Tails chased after

Orochimaru, leaving the battlefield.

Although Orochimaru had no special way to deal with tailed beasts, he had inflicted enough

damage on the Six-Tails to have it completely focused on him.

With the Six-Tails led away, the Three-Tails now faced Takuya.

"Tailed Beast Bomb?"
