A quick kick landed on Sasuke's body. Sasuke flew backwards and rolled on the ground.

When he stood up, Sasuke vomited blood, his whole body was shaking, and he gritted his teeth to hold back the pain from his stomach.

"Sasuke!"

Sakura quickly ran over, ready to come to support.

"do not come!"

Sasuke's face changed slightly.

A ferocious smile appeared on the middle-aged man's face, and in a flash, he abandoned Naruto and Sasuke and rushed directly to Sakura's position.

"go to hell!"

The middle-aged man pulled out the kunai stuck in the flesh and blood of his arm, and let the blood splash, but he still wanted to kill Sakura with the kunai.

In the battle of ninjas, the proportion of medical ninjas is not low.

If this medical ninja is left to his own devices, this battle will be endless.

Therefore, giving priority to killing the medical ninja is the turning point for victory in this battle.

Poof!

Blood splattered out.

Sakura felt like her whole body was shaking and she had a terrible headache. When she reacted, she only saw Sasuke hugging her tightly and rolling out of the middle-aged man's attack range.

"Sa-Sasuke?"

"Really, as a medical ninja, don't run around."

Sasuke hissed and gasped. The burning pain coming from his back made his face distorted, his brows furrowed, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Under such circumstances, it is very dangerous for medical ninjas to enter the battlefield rashly.

If Sakura's strength can catch up with Naruto, then Sasuke will just let it go, at least he will be able to protect himself.

But Sakura does not have this ability. If a medical ninja with average physical skills and no offensive ninjutsu enters this level of battle, you can imagine what will happen.

It was precisely because of this that he said that Kakashi was too indulgent towards Sakura.

The situation on the battlefield changes rapidly and in real time, which sometimes makes it impossible for medical ninjas to perform their functions.

Unless the medical ninja itself also has certain combat capabilities, he can protect himself on the complicated battlefield so that he can better support his companions.

If this is not possible, staying in a safe area is still an option.

No matter what Sasuke thought at the moment, the middle-aged man had no intention of stopping his attack.

He wasted too much time on these genin, and the sound of bombings that just kept erupting from the distance also made him feel vaguely uneasy.

"Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough!"

Such a voice came again, but the middle-aged man did not intend to pay attention.

It was just a plan to use this deception to attract his attention and give his companions a chance to escape.

This trick can fool him once, but a jounin will not fall in the same place twice.

Just when he was thinking this, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

boom!

The sudden storm caused the middle-aged man's mind to go blank. Then his whole body was blown away by the violent wind and hit a thick tree not far away.

When he fell to the ground, the middle-aged man coughed out a large mouthful of blood, his face turned pale, and his aura began to weaken.

Damn it, this is Kyuubi's chakra! The middle-aged man felt a hint of evil mixed in the storm, and his face immediately turned gloomy.

This unique ninjutsu aura is exerted by borrowing the power of the tailed beast.

Is Konoha's sealing technique so lax?

The middle-aged man's face was gloomy and he was a little flustered.

According to their intelligence from Kumogakure, Konoha's sealing technique against tailed beasts has always been very strong.

If it were not for jinchuriki training, it would be impossible for the jinchuriki to activate the seal on his own in normal times, thus leaking the chakra of the tailed beast.

If it were another village's sealing technique, the seal might be unstable and the tailed beast's chakra would be leaked, but Konoha would not make such an obvious mistake.

We can't delay it any longer! Realizing the seriousness of the matter, the middle-aged man quickly targeted Naruto.

However, when he went to look for Naruto, there was no one in front of him.

Suddenly, something stuck up behind me.

Naruto, whose body was surrounded by red chakra, was bleeding from the corners of his mouth, but his face showed a playful look. He hugged the man's body tightly from behind with both hands, making it impossible for his ninjutsu-using arms to move.

And with the blessing of red chakra, Naruto's strength and mental power have been greatly improved.

"You brat, you"

"Sasuke, don't pretend to be dead there, get rid of this guy quickly! I can't trap him for too long!"

Naruto ignored the middle-aged man's angry look and shouted loudly to Sasuke who was not far away.

"Well done, Cranetail."

With Sakura's simple treatment, the wound on his back temporarily stopped bleeding. At this time, he dragged his heavy body and limped towards Naruto and the middle-aged man, with a rare smile on his lips.

The lightning on the palm of his hand fired, and the sharp chirping of birds sounded in the empty forest. Sasuke's face was also illuminated by the lightning, making him look a little pale.

"Damn it, let me go, let me go, you brat!"

When the middle-aged man saw the lightning flashing from Sasuke's hand, his face suddenly became panicked. The breath of death continued to approach. He could no longer maintain his arrogant posture as a jounin and began to curse at a loss.

However, Naruto kept smiling at him. Although the smile was very forced, the strength in his hands was getting stronger and stronger, preventing him from breaking away.

"Wait a minute, I am willing to accept surrender. I am Arui, the jounin of Cloud Hidden Village. If you kill me now, it will cause a war between the two countries!"

The middle-aged man Arui started to speak indiscriminately. Looking at Sasuke who was getting closer and closer, he did not hesitate to declare his family status, making Sasuke and Naruto afraid.

But his idea was destined to disappoint him.

Sasuke just raised his eyebrows, then sneered, came to Alui, raised the palm that gathered the lightning, and then hit Alui's chest without hesitation.

"Raikage-sama...will not...let you go..."

Arui couldn't believe it as he looked at his chest being pierced by lightning. His consciousness began to collapse. Finally, he said these words and stared at Sasuke. Even if he died, he would remember the other's childish face in his heart.

Seeing Alui's chest being pierced, Sasuke was finally relieved and fell to the ground, gasping for air.

"Sakura, help me heal the injury on my back..."

Before Sasuke could finish his words, he heard Naruto's angry voice:

"Sasuke, you bastard, look at what you did!"

Following the voice and looking towards Naruto, Sasuke saw that Naruto was in a state of utter disarray, and his clothes were covered with dust. The worst part was that some of the hair on his head had been flattened by something, leaving him bald.

, making him look a little funny at the moment.

"Is this how you talk to your savior? Besides, you were the one who asked me to take action in the end."

Sasuke responded calmly.

He had no intention of apologizing for losing Naruto's hair.

"It's true that I asked you to take action, but I didn't ask you to shave off my hair."

Naruto looked at Sasuke with a resentful look.

"You are very delicate in that position, so you should thank me for not shaving your head off. However, for you, it doesn't matter if you lose some hair. No girl will care anyway."

Sasuke replied with his expression unchanged.

"..."

To be honest, Naruto is now thinking about killing Sasuke.

Sakura came over and began to treat the injuries on Sasuke's back.

"Sakura, my injury here is also very serious, please don't worry about Sasuke for now."

Naruto pointed to the ribs on his chest. Several of them were broken by stepping on them, and they were still painful, causing Naruto to gasp from time to time.

"Sasuke's blood loss is serious here. If you are there, use this to smear yourself."

Sakura took out a box of ointment and placed it in front of Naruto.

Naruto took the ointment dejectedly. Instead of applying it himself, he wanted Sakura, a girl, to touch his chest and apply the ointment himself.

"Speaking of which, why didn't you see Kakashi-sensei coming?"

Naruto applied medicine to himself while asking about Kakashi's whereabouts.

If Kakashi came with him, they wouldn't have to fight so hard.

Sasuke's eyes flickered, then he closed his eyes and said, "Who knows where that guy went."

As soon as Sasuke finished speaking, a voice sounded from behind:
