Chapter 235 The Shadow of Defeat! The Shadow Falling from the Sky!
"That's… Lord Inmemaru!"
"The final victor is Lord Inmemaru!"
Gazing at the figure standing amidst the ruins!
The Amegakure Ninja who arrived at the edge couldn't help but be deeply shaken!
Then, an excited expression appeared on their faces!
In the very end!
Lord Inmemaru! He did not disappoint their expectations!
He achieved the final victory!
"No… that's not right!"
"Lord Inmemaru, he…"
As the people of Hidden Rain Village got closer and closer to Inmemaru!
They finally saw Inmemaru's current state clearly!
On Inmemaru's chest!
A hole, as big as an adult man's head!
Had almost taken everything from Inmemaru!
Fresh red blood! Under the washing of the rain, it continuously spread towards their feet!
"H-how is this possible! Lord Inmemaru, he… how could he fail!"
"Right! This is a Genjutsu! A Genjutsu cast by that brat!"
"Release it for me… release it for me!"
"…Cough~ Damn it! Did I fail!"
Even with such severe injuries! Inmemaru did not immediately lose consciousness!
After his eyes regained their luster!
His gaze finally landed on where Fujiwara Tetsuya had fallen!
"Konoha… brat! You… you won!"
"If… it's you! Indeed… it's possible… to stand at the pinnacle of the Ninja World!"
"Although… it's a pity! But at the end of my life… to fight with a brat… like you!"
"It's not bad!"
"To fight a strong individual like you… is the honor of my life!"
Under everyone's gaze!
Fujiwara Tetsuya pushed aside the rubble piled on him!
Holding his crippled right arm, he shakily stood up!
Although Inmemaru's constant use of "brat" was annoying!
He had to admit!
Inmemaru! He was indeed an extremely powerful man!
"Hey~ you guys…"
"Sorry… I disappointed you!"
"Remember to tell Lord Hanzō for me!"
"I, Inmemaru… can no longer accompany him in battle…"
"Lord Inmemaru…"
After exhausting his last will and stamina!
Inmemaru heavily fell deep into the ruins!
Even though countless Amegakure Ninja rushed over!
They still couldn't save this man who, besides Hanzō, stood at the pinnacle of the Land of Rain!
Rumble~
The lightning deep within the dark clouds! Became even more violent!
The cold rain!
Like an overflowing sea! It never stopped for a moment!
It seemed to have no end!
Or perhaps! It was seeing off that man!
"Damn it… that damned Konoha brat! I'll kill you…"
Amidst choked sobs!
More than ten Amegakure Ninja, with bloodshot eyes, charged towards Fujiwara Tetsuya!
As if! They wanted to devour Fujiwara Tetsuya alive!
To bury Inmemaru!
"Mikoto! Ryoui… Meihua! Teacher Shinwa! Uncle Jiro! Aunt Sachiko… I'm sorry!"
"I… can't go back!"
Because his Chakra was exhausted! Plus the injury to his right arm!
Fujiwara Tetsuya had already lost the ability to resist!
Facing the more than ten charging Amegakure Ninja!
He could only choose… to close his eyes!
"Summoning Technique!"
"Stop them! Hiro!"
Just as the more than ten Amegakure Ninja were less than twenty meters from Fujiwara Tetsuya!
Jiraiya's deep voice! Gradually came from the south!
Immediately following!
A huge shadow could be seen rapidly falling from the sky!
Amidst a violent roar!
It landed steadily in front of Fujiwara Tetsuya!
Because the power was controlled extremely well!
The impact generated by the fall! Only knocked back the Amegakure Ninja attacking Fujiwara Tetsuya!
It did not affect Fujiwara Tetsuya!
Otherwise! Under such violent power!
Fujiwara Tetsuya had more than a seventy percent chance! Of following Inmemaru on the path to the Pure Land!
"This is… Mount Myōboku's toad!"
"That voice just now… was Senior Jiraiya?"
Facing the sudden change!
Fujiwara Tetsuya opened his eyes again!
Looking at the behemoth in front of him! He was a little surprised! And full of confusion!
"Tetsuya brat… as a Ninja!"
"To choose to give up before you've died in battle… is a bit too early!"
"Senior Jiraiya!"
At this moment! Fujiwara Tetsuya finally confirmed it!
He hadn't misheard!
That voice just now! It was indeed Jiraiya!
Just as he turned towards the direction the voice came from!
Fujiwara Tetsuya froze!
"Mikoto… Teacher Shinwa! You all…"
"Tetsuya!"
"Lord Tetsuya…"
"Tetsuya-kun!"
In just a few seconds!
Jiraiya! Uchiha Mikoto! Yuhi Shinwa and others all appeared beside Fujiwara Tetsuya!
"You… you guys!"
Meeting those worried gazes!
For some reason!
Fujiwara Tetsuya actually felt a bit of fear!
Perhaps… he had failed their "trust"!
Perhaps he was worried… about being blamed by them!
"Lord Tetsuya! This time you went too far!"
"You actually knocked us out!"
"Fortunately! Jiraiya arrived in time and had Lord Shinwa wake us up!"
"Otherwise… we would probably live in regret our entire lives!"
Looking at the heavily scarred Fujiwara Tetsuya!
Although everyone was filled with worry… they also breathed a sigh of relief!
No matter what! He was still alive!
This was the best outcome!
"Damn it! It's Konoha's reinforcements!"
"Go get more people! No matter what, we must keep that damned brat here today!"
As several Amegakure Ninja went to call for reinforcements!
The remaining dozens of Amegakure Ninja! Were already blocking Gama Hiro!
Coldly staring at Fujiwara Tetsuya, who was surrounded by Jiraiya! Uchiha Mikoto, and the others!
"The battle between Tetsuya brat and you all is over!"
"Hidden Rain Village has already suffered too many losses!"
"If you choose to continue fighting!"
"Then I, Lord Jiraiya, will be your opponent!"
Although!
At this moment, Jiraiya really wanted to scold Fujiwara Tetsuya a bit as an elder!
However! Scanning the Amegakure Ninja who were already ready for battle!
He could only temporarily suppress this exciting thought!
"Jiraiya…"
"Konoha's Vice Commander! The Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi's direct disciple!"
"Why… why is such a powerful man here!"
"Shouldn't he be on the front lines of the battle!"
As the battle between Hidden Rain Village and Konoha continued to escalate!
Jiraiya, as a pillar of Konoha!
His reputation had long spread throughout the Land of Rain!
Therefore! The Amegakure Ninja in front of him were not unfamiliar with Jiraiya!
Perhaps they had heard of Jiraiya's strength!
So much so that while the opposing Amegakure Ninja felt grief and indignation!
They couldn't help but feel a bit of a desire to retreat!
"No… no! Hand over Fujiwara Tetsuya! And we'll let you leave!"
"Otherwise! Even if we sacrifice our lives!"
"We will definitely keep all of you here!"
Finally! The belief in revenge!
The dignity of an Amegakure Ninja!
Ultimately triumphed over the cowardice in their hearts!
The Amegakure Ninja in front of them still chose… to avenge Inmemaru!
