Chapter 541: Senju Sister-Support Demon
The situation in the field changed rapidly. In just the blink of an eye, two beautiful figures flashed out, and the next second they appeared in unison on the high platform where the Tailed Beast Card was placed.
"Who is it?"
Whether it was the contestants participating in the exam or the audience watching intently in the auditorium, they were all startled by this sudden change.
Senju Kenta's screams still echoed in everyone's ears, and everyone was curious about who was so bold. That was a Tailed Beast Card that could instantly kill an elite Jonin.
"It's Uzumaki Mito!"
"The sister of the Uzumaki clan leader, the Uzumaki clan's sealing technique is excellent. I think she must have means to restrain the Tailed Beast."
Soon, someone judged her identity based on Uzumaki Mito's appearance characteristics, guessing whether she was a mysterious sealing master.
Uzumaki Mito used a fake identity when she served as the Daimyo of the Land of Whirlpools. She specifically created a noble descendant identity who was drifting outside, so she could naturally integrate into the Daimyo circle and save a lot of trouble.
Therefore, her identity to the outside world now was the sister of the Uzumaki clan leader, Uzumaki Hanado, the iron-fisted princess of the Land of Whirlpools, who led the clan to fight in the sea all year round, chasing the Hidden Mist Village to beat them.
"Is this the Tailed Beast Card?"
Listening to the amazed words of the people around, Uzumaki Mito smiled slightly, looking at the Nine-Tails Card pinched in her hand. Looking at the lifelike fire-red fox, curiosity appeared in her eyes.
"Take your hand away, I touched it first."
Uchiha Hikari, who was pinching the other end of the Nine-Tails Card, said coldly. Her black pupils transformed into scarlet Sharingan at the beginning, otherwise, she couldn't have reacted the first time Uzumaki Mito acted.
"Who gets it first doesn't matter, what matters is who gets it last."
Uzumaki Mito shook her head, secretly using force with the hand pinching the card. Uchiha Hikari felt the huge pulling force coming from the opposite side, her gaze condensed, and veins bulged on the back of her fair hand.
Finding that her proud strange power didn't snatch the Tailed Beast Card in the first time, Uzumaki Mito was stunned for a moment. The Uchiha Hikari in front of her actually had strange power not weaker than hers.
"Yo, you know strange power too?"
"Gin taught me."
Uchiha Hikari smiled triumphantly, the blue light flashing on her young little hand being extremely dazzling.
"Actually being able to match the Iron-Fisted Princess in a contest of strength, whose subordinate is she?"
Looking at the black-haired girl who didn't fall behind in the contest of strength, the audience began to talk about it. Based on the standard clan uniform worn by the girl, most people only guessed that she was from the Uchiha clan.
"I seem to remember she is..."
But there were also people who recognized the girl's identity. After all, no matter how reclusive she was, Uchiha Hikari ultimately lived in the village and couldn't avoid dealing with the villagers.
"I remember! She is Uchiha Gin's girlfriend!"
The villagers who learned this explosive news immediately exposed the girl's hidden figure. The onlookers who were waiting to eat melons were instantly dumbfounded.
"Huh?"
After staying on the girl's soft and charming face for a long time, a spectator who learned this explosive news cried out, beating his chest and stamping his feet.
"That curly hair can find a wife, why am I, such a handsome and handsome man, still single?"
"I don't accept it!"
"This Mr. Akimichi, please stop your performance."
A spectator on the side looked at the fat man who was crying bitterly and couldn't help but complain.
"I, Akimichi Men-chan, must get out of the single life!"
Even though he was criticized, this Akimichi clan member with black-rimmed glasses and a wretched appearance still didn't give up his ideal.
"Lord Izuna, how can she be so strong?"
The clan members following Uchiha Izuna were also very curious about Uchiha Hikari's identity.
Most of them, born after the establishment of Konoha, didn't know the secrets within the clan, and their understanding of Uchiha Hikari was limited to her being Uchiha Gin's cohabitant.
Her strength wasn't obvious, but based on the fact that she had successfully practiced the Yin Seal, her strength shouldn't be bad, at least at the Jonin level or above.
"Hikari-nee, she is very strong."
Uchiha Izuna looked at Uchiha Hikari in the field with a complex gaze. Anyone who could be a pair with his cousin wouldn't be an ordinary person, right?
Even that guy, he couldn't see through him now.
As he spoke, he shifted his gaze to the other black and white figure in the field, a bit more solemnity appearing in his eyes.
"Hey! Are you okay? If it's a contest of strength, let me come!"
Under the high platform, watching Uchiha Hikari who was deadlocked, Senju Itama couldn't help but itch her fists, shouting loudly.
"Don't come and make trouble, this is my battle."
Uchiha Hikari said without turning her head.
"Seriously, being old means having a lot of trouble."
Senju Itama curled her lips in dissatisfaction, continuing to wait with her arms crossed, but her eyes were full of restless agitation.
"Damn it, if this continues, the Tailed Beast Card will definitely be taken away by one of those two women."
On the other side, Senju Hime, who had been unilaterally hung up by the Nine-Tails, had a face full of anxiety.
"Can't sit still and wait for death."
After thinking about it again and again, she decided to take the initiative, taking advantage of the tug-of-war between Uzumaki Mito and the others, to catch them off guard and stage a battle between the clam and the crane, with the fisherman benefiting.
Once the thought arose, Senju Hime started looking for a suitable position, moving toward the high platform unobtrusively.
"Eh?"
Just at this moment, Uchiha Chiharu, who was not interested in the Tailed Beast Card, discovered Senju Hime's little movements. Looking at the other party's purposeful steps, she blinked in confusion.
"What's wrong, Chiharu-nee?"
Uchiha Chiharu's voice caught Senju Itama's attention.
"Itama, that girl, is she trying to make trouble?"
Pointing to Senju Hime, Uchiha Chiharu whispered.
"Huh?"
Looking in the direction pointed, Senju Itama immediately showed a strange look.
This big niece is also too worrying. You dare to participate in this level of battle, be careful of being torn to pieces by those two women in minutes.
"I'll be right back."
Senju Itama sighed secretly in her heart, and flashed away, leaving Uchiha Chiharu alone eating snacks in confusion.
Senju Hime, who was concentrating on observing Uzumaki Mito and the others, didn't notice that her little movements had been exposed to Senju Itama at all.
"Fight! You guys fight quickly!"
Seeing Uzumaki Mito and the others still pulling the Tailed Beast Card, she urged in a low voice with some impatience.
"What do you want to do?"
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind her, and she replied subconsciously.
"What else, snatch the card."
As soon as she finished speaking, her expression froze on her face. She slowly turned her head and saw Senju Itama looking at her helplessly.
"Hime, I advise you not to act rashly. Neither of the two women above is easy to deal with."
For her cheap big niece, Senju Itama still had the most basic care. She didn't want the only bloodline of her second brother to be sent here.
"Little Aunt, I'm just looking."
Senju Hime hesitated again and again, replying in a voice that was barely audible.
Before successfully changing back, she had better continue to play her daughter.
"That's good. Some things, in the end, can only be looked at."
Shaking her head lightly, Senju Itama warned earnestly. Such a dangerous thing as a Tailed Beast Card was not something that a child like Senju Hime could hold.
Hearing this, Senju Hime fell into a short silence. She knew her sister was worried about her safety, but at this moment she was more worried about the future of the clan.
If they couldn't get the Nine-Tails Card and the Knight System, the decline of the Senju clan would be a foregone conclusion. By the time her big brother came back, the home might be gone.
"Little Aunt, the Senju clan needs it."
Senju Hime slowly raised her head. She couldn't watch the clan walk toward the end.
Now, Senju Kenta, who was pinned with high hopes by the clan, had exited the stage, and she was the last hope of the Senju clan.
"Did you not listen to a word I said?"
Looking at the big niece who was retreating slowly, Senju Itama frowned slightly.
Although she wasn't in the clan, she also knew that the situation of the Senju clan was difficult now, so she often gave Senju Momoka assistance in the dark to maintain the basic operation of the clan.
As long as she was still alive for one day, the Senju clan would never fall.
Good guy, you are even more ruthless than a sister-support demon?
"Sorry, Little... Aunt."
Having made up her mind, Senju Hime nodded solemnly, and the moment her voice fell, her whole body turned into a blue lightning bolt and disappeared in front of Senju Itama.
"Tsk!"
Familiar Flying Thunder God, familiar stubbornness.
"Second Brother, worthy of being your daughter, the personality is exactly the same as yours."
Senju Itama clicked her tongue, chakra poured into her legs, and her whole body turned into a stream of light and rushed toward the high platform.
"Ah? Someone else made a move, it's the princess of the Senju clan!"
Senju Hime's big move successfully attracted the attention of the auditorium, and everyone shifted their gaze from the two women in the tug-of-war and followed the blue lightning.
"There's another one behind, it's from the Uchiha family again!"
Quite a few people knew Senju Itama, and her black and white hair color left a deep impression.
"Whoosh! ——"
After using the Flying Thunder God technique to bypass Senju Itama, Senju Hime's figure flashed again, rushing toward the Nine-Tails Card she had locked onto.
"Wait!"
Just as she raised her finger to condense chakra again, a small hand quietly pressed on Senju Hime's shoulder, scaring her into a shiver.
"Little Aunt? Why are you..."
Senju Hime turned her head in surprise, looking at the rich chakra wrapped around Senju Itama's body, she was speechless for a while.
When did her little sister become so strong?
Their brothers and sisters had secretly recognized each other early on, but out of guilt and love for her sister, Senju Tobirama and the others hadn't urged her to practice, so they had no concept of Senju Itama's true strength.
"Second Brother's technique is quite smooth, but this is far from enough."
Looking at the seal in Senju Hime's hand with some surprise, Senju Itama nodded in recognition. This big niece was indeed a genius. The secret technique that her second brother had only achieved a little success after many years of practice, the other party had already mastered it at such a young age.
Unfortunately, just Flying Thunder God alone was definitely not the opponent of Uchiha Hikari and the others.
"Offended."
Looking at the iron-pincer-like little hand on her shoulder, Senju Hime took a deep breath, and one second before Senju Itama spoke, her whole body turned into a blue lightning bolt and disappeared again.
When she appeared again, she was behind Senju Itama, raising her palm high, turning it into a knife, and slashing toward the other's tender neck.
"Boom!"
"Ah!"
So hard!
Senju Hime, who was rubbing her red and swollen palm and retreating quickly, looked at her sister's snow-white neck in disbelief. Although she had restrained her strength just now, that hand knife would have made even a Jonin lie down.
"Since preaching is useless..."
Broken bones are the best textbook. Senju Itama, who was unscathed, turned her head with a serious expression, her fists burning with blue light that made Senju Hime's heart tremble.
"They're fighting! They're fighting!"
Watching the two women who started to make a move, the onlookers in the auditorium shouted excitedly. It was worth the money after all.
"That little ghost, her growth isn't bad either~"
On the stage, Uzumaki Mito, who was wrestling, glanced at Senju Itama and actually had the leisure to speak. It seems she hadn't used her full strength.
"Hmph!"
Compared to the relaxed Uzumaki Mito, Uchiha Hikari was inferior. But she was only Uchiha after all. Compared to playing taijutsu, she focused more on the development of pupil techniques.
Competing in strength with Uzumaki Mito was equivalent to using her own shortcomings to PK the other party's strengths, and she ultimately didn't have the advantage.
The two women outside were pulling wildly with strange power, but the Nine-Tails inside the card had no one to complain to.
As a gathering of chakra, the Nine-Tails itself didn't exist in the flesh. Now that it was sealed into the card, this card carrying its power was equivalent to a card-jinchuriki.
Once the Tailed Beast Card was damaged, it would also be implicated.
Of course, the strength of the card made of fragments of Six Paths Ninja Tools was worth believing, but this also depended on the situation.
Under normal circumstances, even bloodline limits with strong destructive power couldn't hurt it in the slightest.
But the situation at hand had already exceeded the general category.
The Nine-Tails could clearly perceive that the Tailed Beast Card space it was in was falling apart. Under the scouring of the two women's chakra, dense cracks spread all over.
"Stop pulling, stop pulling, this master is going to be torn in half!"
The Nine-Tails, trembling in fear, hurriedly reminded the two women outside not to tear it, an innocent little Tailed Beast, into two halves just to show off for a moment.
"Oh?"
The moment the Nine-Tails' voice rang in her mind, the two women in the tug-of-war paused in unison. Uzumaki Mito then curiously examined the details of the Tailed Beast Card in her hand.
"Four-Elephant Seal, right?"
As a sealing master, she clearly perceived the exquisite sealing technique engraved on the Tailed Beast Card, and a look of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"One, two, three, four... eighteen?"
When two Four-Elephant Seals are superimposed, they become the Eight-Trigrams Seal, which is a top-level existence in sealing techniques, and even a Tailed Beast cannot break free.
However, in the Tailed Beast Card in her hand, there were actually as many as eighteen Four-Elephant Seals placed on it, which showed that the author's sealing technique level was extremely high, far exceeding her, a sealing master.
Gin-san is truly unfathomable~
But she was only surprised for a second and didn't delve into it anymore. After all, she knew whose hands the Tailed Beast Card came from. The stronger Uchiha Gin was, the happier she was.
"Since the Nine-Tails said so, should we change the competition method?"
Uzumaki Mito raised her eyebrows and suggested to Uchiha Hikari, whose little face was tight.
"Want to trick me into letting go? No way!"
Uchiha Hikari didn't believe the Nine-Tails' nonsense. If it was torn, couldn't she just stick it back with glue?
