Swish!!
White, cold air filled the area.
The moment Yuichi turned his head, the two puppets were completely turned into ice statues.
They stood silently behind Yuichi.
Maintaining the posture of swinging their hands, preparing to strangle him.
Chiyo, who was controlling the puppets, suddenly felt the chakra threads on her hands snap.
Chiyo's eyes widened.
She looked at Yuichi in disbelief, at the puppets he had frozen in an instant.
This kid's power is terrifying!
Beside her, Kakashi and the others couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
The opponent had made no move, yet was able to freeze the puppets behind him.
The power of this Ice Style was on a completely different level from Haku's.
Yuichi turned his head, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly in a smile.
He said to Chiyo, "Old lady! You're not going to let me leave?"
Sasori looked at the two puppets, which had been modified from his parents, now turned into two ice statues.
They stood silently in front of him.
Sasori's expression seemed a bit off.
Yuichi walked through the space between the two of them.
With every step he took, the surface of the lake froze.
The ice crystals slowly spread.
Chiyo looked at the spreading ice crystals.
The surprise on her face disappeared, and she looked at Yuichi with a grave expression.
She took out a scroll from behind her back.
"Hmph! Kid, your Kekkei Genkai is strong!"
"But don't be too arrogant in front of me. When I was participating in the Great Ninja War, I don't know where you were."
Chiyo opened the scroll and lightly tapped it with her hand.
BAM! BAM! BAM~~~
White smoke erupted continuously.
One after another, puppets appeared. Chakra threads shot out from Chiyo's hands, controlling them.
The puppets began to move, making a creaking sound.
Sasori was looking at his parents, completely ignoring the situation on this side.
Yuichi looked at Chiyo's appearance. It was clear that she had no intention of letting him leave.
He sighed softly.
Seeing Yuichi's completely unconcerned attitude.
Chiyo was displeased at being looked down upon by a junior.
"Kid, you can leave, but you can't take my grandson with you."
"I'm warning you one last time. Get lost now. It's been a long time since I've killed anyone. Don't force me to do it at my age."
The white smoke dissipated, and a total of ten puppets appeared around Chiyo.
Yuichi looked at the ten puppets in white robes that had suddenly appeared.
"The White Secret Technique?"
"It looks quite strong!"
Although Yuichi said that, his face showed no concern.
It seemed he didn't take Chiyo's White Secret Technique: The Chikamatsu Collection of Ten Puppets seriously at all.
The Kāma mark on his left arm flashed with a red light, and white, cold air rose from Yuichi's right hand.
His eyes were fixed on Chiyo.
Kakashi was beside Chiyo.
"Senior..."
Kakashi was a little worried. He had just personally experienced the power of Yuichi's Ice Style.
His body hadn't fully recovered yet.
His movements were a bit inconvenient. In this situation, he couldn't be of much help.
Chiyo knew Kakashi's concerns. "Don't worry, kid. Leave this greenhorn to me."
"You don't need to make a move."
Yuichi's Ice Style was astonishingly powerful. One could be frozen if not careful.
Chiyo was a puppet master. Even if her puppets were frozen by Yuichi, she wouldn't be injured.
Naruto said, "Granny Chiyo, can you do it alone?!"
Hearing this, Chiyo smiled. "Don't underestimate me. My puppet mastery is very strong!"
Kakashi explained, "Senior Chiyo once fought the legendary demigod, Hanzo of the Salamander, and was undefeated!"
Naruto didn't know much about Hanzo of the Salamander.
But "demigod."
This word allowed Naruto to understand to some extent that Chiyo's strength was not weak.
Although she was just an old woman, she must have been a powerful ninja in the past!
In that case, he was relieved.
Sakura also looked at Chiyo with anticipation.
To be able to manipulate ten puppets at once, although the number was not as many as Sasori had controlled just now.
But for a female ninja, it was amazing.
Chiyo looked at Yuichi, and her fingers moved slightly.
The puppets in front of her instantly began to move.
The ten puppets instantly scattered, rushing in all directions at a dazzling speed.
This move stunned Naruto and Sakura.
Although the number was not as many as Sasori's just now, Chiyo's ten puppets...
...were much faster than Sasori's.
To be able to control ten puppets to move at such high speed at the same time.
An ordinary person couldn't possibly do it!
'Amazing!' Naruto sighed in his heart.
Kakashi also admired Chiyo. Even at her age, to be able to control puppets to such a masterful degree.
She was indeed worthy of being the ninja who had fought Hanzo of the Salamander and remained undefeated.
Creak! Creak! Creak!
The scattered puppets' figures crossed paths, making it impossible to judge their movement trajectories.
Maintaining this irregular movement pattern, the puppets quickly approached Yuichi.
In just a few breaths.
The puppets were about to surround Yuichi.
By the time he reacted, Yuichi was already in the puppets' encirclement.
At this time, Yuichi was still standing in place without any movement.
Seeing the motionless Yuichi.
Chiyo's gaze sank.
'If I attack rashly, this kid's Ice Style might freeze my puppets directly into blocks of ice.'
'I have to harass him first, find a suitable opening, and then finish him off in one blow.'
With this thought.
Chiyo's middle finger twitched slightly.
Instantly, the white-robed puppet connected by the chakra thread.
Suddenly stopped. The puppet with the character for "four" on its face.
Iron chains suddenly shot out from the five black holes on its head, stabbing towards Yuichi.
Clearly, Chiyo had no intention of getting close to Yuichi immediately. She planned to use long-range attacks to find an opening and then launch an attack.
Yuichi looked at the iron chains that were biting at him like a group of snakes.
His body moved slightly.
BAM! BAM!
He dodged the iron chain attacks.
However, these iron chains, which were like hair, immediately launched another attack after missing the first.
Yuichi kept dodging.
Seeing Yuichi able to avoid the attacks so easily.
Chiyo thought, 'This kid's speed is so fast. It seems one is not enough.'
Her five fingers began to twist flexibly.
Instantly, three puppets rushed towards Yuichi from different angles at the same time.
Under Chiyo's control, the three puppets that suddenly rushed out were like a whirlwind, reaching Yuichi's side in the blink of an eye.
They joined forces to strangle Yuichi.
This attack almost instantly sealed off all of Yuichi's escape routes.
Yuichi was suddenly shocked.
'What a vicious eye!'
'As expected of an old woman with rich combat experience!'
In that instant.
Kakashi also couldn't help but be surprised by Chiyo's sudden attack.
But it was only surprise. Kakashi narrowed his eyes and looked at Yuichi.
He didn't think Yuichi would be killed so easily.
The purpose of this attack should be to force Yuichi to use his Kekkei Genkai!
Hiss... hiss... hiss!
As expected, the next second, the cold air rising from Yuichi's right arm.
Instantly erupted. The three puppets' bodies suddenly froze, and then ice crystals instantly appeared, completely freezing them.
Seeing this scene, Kakashi felt it was a bit of a pity. The opponent's Kekkei Genkai ability was too strong.
In close combat, it was difficult to land an effective blow.
"Now!"
Just as Kakashi was feeling sorry for Chiyo.
Chiyo's voice suddenly sounded.
BAM!
The ice surface under Yuichi's feet exploded, and a puppet broke through the ice. A female puppet wielding two swords, its blades slashed straight at Yuichi's neck.
A flash of a blade...
