Chapter 14 When did Naruto become so powerful?
No sooner had he spoken.
"Ding! A new choice has been found."
"Choice one: Defeat Tsunade."
"Mission Reward: Senju Clan Bloodline."
"Choice two: Get knocked out by Tsunade like in the original story."
"Mission Reward: Obtain the title of 'Weakest Transmigrator'."
Originally, receiving a system prompt was a very happy thing.
But this choice made Naruto a bit difficult; first, this fight had to happen.
However, to win against her, he really had no confidence, after all, it was three people.
But for the Senju Clan bloodline, Naruto decided to go all out.
"Choice One!"
Naruto made his decision.
Then he immediately went with Tsunade to an open space.
Jiraiya watched the two confront each other with great interest.
"I wonder if Naruto will give Tsunade a surprise."
Jiraiya mused to himself.
Tsunade also extended a finger, pointing at Naruto.
"One finger, one minute, and I can take care of you!"
Initially, Naruto felt a bit nervous, but when he saw Tsunade's confident demeanor, for some reason, he felt an inexplicable surge of anger.
He just wanted to take down this seemingly young Old Hag in front of him.
"Since that's the case, Old Hag Tsunade, you absolutely must not break the rules."
As he spoke, Naruto activated all three types of Haki simultaneously.
He charged directly at Tsunade.
Hearing Naruto call her an Old Hag, Tsunade's forehead immediately bulged with veins.
But then she remembered the words she had just spoken about defeating him with one finger.
She grinned and said, "Kid, you want to provoke me? Then I'll show you what I've got."
As she spoke, Tsunade poked the ground with one finger, and with a boom, the ground shattered.
But Naruto seemed to have known Tsunade's movements in advance.
He directly avoided the direction of the shattering beforehand.
Then he also threw One Punch at Tsunade.
Tsunade raised her jade finger, intending to poke Naruto's joint.
But Naruto ducked, performing Drunken Fist's Zhang Guo Lao!
Tsunade had never seen such a fighting style.
She was immediately entangled by Naruto; her taijutsu required broad, sweeping movements.
And Drunken Fist was an expert at entanglement.
"Oh no!"
Tsunade cursed inwardly, realizing she had fallen into Naruto's trap.
So she quickly changed tactics, intending to go head-to-head with Naruto.
Naruto's Observation Haki had already anticipated Tsunade's intention.
However, he did not make any evasive moves; he simply met Tsunade's attack with a clash of fist and finger.
Tsunade sneered, "Good!"
Her monstrous strength could paralyze nerve tissue; if Naruto went head-to-head with her like this, he could easily damage his nerves.
But after touching Naruto, Tsunade suddenly felt something was off.
How could Naruto's skin have such an intense chill?
It was like a cold killing intent, directly forcing her finger back.
Naruto's lips curled into a smile.
The previous Naruto had never fought such a powerful enemy; even Itachi had only gone so far, mostly because his taijutsu was quite unique, making the opponent somewhat unaccustomed to it.
Therefore, his understanding of the original storycharacters had instilled a slight sense of fear in him.
So this confrontation with Tsunade allowed Narutoto truly experience how strong he actually was.
After testing Tsunade's limits, Naruto immediately decided to prepare a decisive move.
Using Tsunade's two stumbling steps, he immediately closed in.
And in the process, he used Shadow Clone Jutsu; his main body directly engaged Tsunade in close-quarters combat.
Originally, Tsunade's monstrous strength had no effect against Armament Haki.
Coupled with the bizarre movements of Naruto's Drunken Fist, Tsunade was caught completely off guard.
At the same time, Naruto's Shadow Clone directly formed a Rasengan.
Then it blasted towards Tsunade.
Seeing this, Tsunade actually felt a bit angry.
"Kid, you're going a bit too far!"
As she spoke, she no longer held back, directly changing her finger to a fist, and delivered One Punch at the Rasengan.
With a boom, even the surrounding buildings began to shake.
Naruto's Shadow Clones all exploded; he had not used the Great Ball Rasengan.
That move was to be saved for Uncle Snake, who was still eyeing them covetously.
Shizune was almost thrown away by the aftershock of their attacks, but Naruto's attack was not over yet.
He used his Haki to forcibly stabilize himself, then rushed towards Tsunade.
"Cao Guojiu Immortal Offers Wine Throat Lock!"
This was a killer move from Drunken Eight Immortals.
And using it at this moment was the perfect timing; Tsunade had not yet fully regained her footing, and at a crucial moment, Naruto had closed in on her.
"Kid, don't think you can really defeat me."
The two once again became entangled in battle.
However, this time, their battle had no restrictions whatsoever; they fought without holding anything back.
Both of them were fired up.
Shizune watched from the side, somewhat at a loss.
"Lord Jiraiya, is this really okay?"
Jiraiya rubbed his head, also a bit bewildered.
"When did Naruto become so strong?"
No!
He quickly understood the problem.
It wasn't that Naruto had become stronger, but that Naruto had finally unleashed his full power.
"It's hard to imagine a teenager being able to do this. Is this the power of the Nine-Tailed?"
Jiraiya attributed everything about Naruto to the Nine-Tailed.
"Minato, did you see that? Your son is a genius."
Just then, a cloud of dust suddenly rose around Naruto.
"What?"
Both Tsunade and the other two outside the field were surprised by this scene.
Naruto could even use Earth Release.
These flying sands directly condensed into a large hand, gripping Tsunade's pulse point.
And one of Naruto's hands directly clasped Tsunade's throat.
Tsunade looked at Naruto, her eyes very complex.
There was both shock at Naruto's strength and admiration for a junior.
And Naruto's lips carried a trace of blood, which was caused by Tsunade's monstrous strength hitting him in the face.
However, with Armament Haki, there were no symptoms of nerve paralysis.
Tsunade and Shizune quickly stepped forward to check their injuries.
Naruto stared intently at Tsunade: "You lost, you have to come back with me to take over as Hokage."
Tsunade sighed.
"I can't stand you guys. I won't go back on my word."
As she spoke, she untied a pendant from her neck. "This pendant is a relic of the First Hokage. I'll give it to you."
Then she turned to leave, but Naruto collapsed immediately after hearing Tsunade's words.
"Is he alright?"
"He's fine, just out of Chakra."
Tsunade looked at Naruto, then turned to Jiraiya.
"You've taken on a good disciple."
Jiraiya looked at Tsunade with a faint smile, "Your way of teaching him just now was also good; in the end, you even deliberately gave him an opening and lost to him."
But Tsunade shook her head.
"No, I didn't deliberately give him that opening."
