Chapter 70: Life Chain's New Use

Once the Kaguya clan head resigned himself to fate, the destiny of the Kaguya clan was already sealed.

The elders of the Kaguya clan were unwilling to accept it.

"Clan Head, are you really going to give up just like that?"

"I have children too!"

"Lady Terumi Mei, please save my child!"

The Kaguya clan head looked at them and laughed bitterly:

"Either let Mizukage live, or we fight once and then every single person in the entire clan dies here, letting the Kaguya clan be wiped out completely. Choose for yourselves!"

Those elders instantly froze in place, glaring at Yagura through gritted teeth.

The reasoning was naturally clear to them, but they were unwilling to accept it!

They were the foremost clan of Kirigakure!

The most powerful group in Kirigakure!

Yet now they could only extend their necks and await slaughter!

The stark contrast before and after was impossible for them to accept.

Not far away, Yagura watched them quietly, with Obito's cold gaze behind him.

Unwilling?!

Did Rin back then die willingly?

You brought it all upon yourselves!

Die, all of you!

But just at this moment, an unexpected change occurred suddenly!

The Kaguya clan head shot forward without any warning, charging straight at Terumi Mei!

Everyone was stunned!

Including the Kaguya clan elders!

But watching the Kaguya clan head's actions, they understood the clan head had not abandoned them.

Rather, he understood that the Kaguya clan alone had no hope whatsoever, so they had to drag Terumi Mei, and the person behind her, down with them!

Even if it meant reigniting the war that had just ended!

Only this way would the Kaguya clan have a chance to survive!

As for Yagura's tailed beast transformation, they could no longer spare it a thought!

The despairing hearts of the Kaguya clan's upper echelon instantly became excited.

"I knew it, the clan head would never abandon the clan!"

"As expected of the man who leads the Kaguya clan!"

"Take Terumi Mei!"

They excitedly widened their eyes, staring fixedly at the Kaguya clan head's movements, as if they could seize Terumi Mei in the very next second.

But!

"The fruit is still unwilling!"

Terumi Mei had long been guarding against the Kaguya clan head.

A person willing to ally with her clan, even pushing her into the position of Mizukage just to restore the Kaguya clan to its peak.

How could someone with such ambition be persuaded by a few words?

Whoosh!!!

Terumi Mei immediately activated her Celestial Demon Tattoo!

Hum—

In an instant, Terumi Mei felt her entire body filled with explosive, terrifying power.

At the same time, her appearance also changed.

Her pupils turned gold.

Eyeshadow also appeared around her eyes!

"So strong!"

Terumi Mei was deeply shaken, but what shook her even more was that she actually sensed Ishihara's presence.

"This is... the chakra left behind from that time?"

Terumi Mei's heart stirred and she immediately understood, and was overjoyed.

She hurriedly called Ishihara's name in her heart.

"Ishihara, help me! Ishihara! Help me!"

At the base.

Ishihara set down the scroll in his hand, a look of surprise appearing on his face.

He hadn't expected Terumi Mei to discover the existence of his chakra so quickly.

This was the special aspect of the secret technique Life Chain.

Once linked, as long as he didn't actively sever it, it was a permanent link!
