Chapter 18: Take your dog for a walk in moderation!
Looking at his own ninja whose eyes widened and his legs were shaking because of the sudden appearance of Ichibi Shukaku, Gintoki also let out a tut, and then called out loudly.
"Cheer up! That old woman can't control that monster for long! Just hold on until the big army retreats!"
Because of Gintoki's strenuous shouting, these Konoha ninjas came back to their senses, and they all clenched the kunai in their hands and faced the huge monster.
"At least die on the battlefield like a ninja!"
I don't know who shouted this, and the other Konoha ninjas also grasped the kunai tightly, shouted to make the fear dissipate, and rushed straight towards the giant!
"Fight and retreat at the same time! That monster will be useless if you retreat to the Kingdom of Rain!"
As the commander, Gintoki kept shouting and conveying orders. In this case, he could only do this, using the desperate resistance of a few people in exchange for the successful evacuation of the large army!
However, despite this, too many Konoha ninjas were sacrificed. Because of Ichibi Shukaku's participation in the battle, this battlefield has truly become a meat grinder!
Watching his companions die one by one around him, Gintoki's eyes were unknowingly covered with a layer of blood, and his expression became increasingly gloomy!
If we don't find a way to deal with Ichibi Shukaku, there may be very few of our own ninjas who survive today and successfully withdraw to the Land of Rain!
Not to mention dealing with it, even if you want to hold back such a behemoth, you need the same behemoth! And the only ones who can barely do it are the psychic beasts of the Sannin!
But Jiraiya was transferred to other battlefields, Orochimaru hadn't arrived yet, and Tsunade's slug... didn't seem to have this ability.
"Never mind!"
Gintoki, whose heart skipped a beat, stopped instantly, and used the psychic technique passed down by Sakumo himself that he had never used before!
Gintoki also prayed in his heart.
You must give me someone with a big backing! Don’t be a puppy like Kakashi in the comics! Give me the one with the biggest backing! Someone who is like a dog god, there is definitely one! Come out! Please!
!
"Psychic!"
After the white smoke passed, a familiar white furry creature appeared in front of Gintoki, and then Gintoki's head was taken into his mouth by the big furry white dog.
"I really got a dog god!"
Gintoki, who opened Sadaharu's mouth and was bleeding profusely from his forehead, opened his eyes wide and broke down and complained. Gintoki never expected this development.
"Why you! Dingchun!"
"Ouch!" Sadharu was still rubbing Gintoki very affectionately because they hadn't seen each other for a long time.
"There is no other way, Dingchun, go find the more seriously injured wounded and take them with you to retreat with the main force. I will go find you later!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gintoki suddenly discovered that Dingharu was eating something with his head down. When he looked closely, he realized that it was his own pocket.
"Stop eating. I'll ask Kakashi to buy dog food for you when we get back."
Just after he finished speaking, Gintoki suddenly realized that something was wrong with Sadaharu's situation, and suddenly thought of the dry food stored in his pocket.
A bottle of milk, a box of strawberries...
Gintoki blinked his confused eyes when he thought of something, and then sweat began to drip from his forehead.
Seeing Sadaharu's body growing uncontrollably, and his cute and furry head becoming more and more sinister, the corners of Gintoki's eyes twitched.
"roar--!!!"
A loud roar silenced the battlefield once again.
The huge and ferocious monster with fangs aroused the hope in the hearts of all Konoha people at this moment!
Perhaps because of his upbringing in Gin, Koshinka's Sadharu has not lost his mind. The evidence is that his eyes are still clear.
"Sadaharu! You..." Gintoki opened his eyes wide, and then made up his mind, "Sadaharu, have you seen that guy with only one tail on the opposite side? Try to stop it, and I will join you."
"Ouch!"
Looking at Sadharu who was rushing towards Ichibi Shukaku, Gintoki had no time to think, turned his head and shouted to his own troops: "Retreat! Retreat now! Retreat immediately!"
Having said that, Gintoki also quickly chased in the direction of Sadaharu. Gintoki would not do anything to let Sadaharu fight alone.
…
The battle finally came to an end. Koma's transformed Sadharu and the Orochi channeled by Orochimaru, who arrived belatedly, stopped Ichibi Shukaku and bought enough time for the retreat of the large army.
Of course, after the battle, Dingchun was exhausted and returned to his normal size...how strange!
The station in the Kingdom of Rain.
Seeing Sadaharu, who had returned to his usual size but still full of energy, chasing the Inuzuka family dog around the station, Gintoki was puzzled by this abnormal phenomenon.
Even the injuries Sadaharu sustained during Koma's transformation healed on their own!
"That dog is interesting. I can feel a power entering its body from the earth..."
Hearing Orochimaru say this while looking at Sadaharu, Gintoki suddenly thought of something.
Joharu itself is a god related to the Dragon Veins. The Dragon Veins and Altana also have similar things in this world, which is the natural energy of the sage mode!
Then it makes sense that natural energy can be absorbed by it!
"Dingchun, come here."
"Ouch!"
Sadaharu, who had spared the Inuzuka family's wolfhounds, also ran straight towards Gintoki, and... took Gintoki's head into his mouth again.
…
Late at night, looking at Sadharu sleeping soundly, Gintoki couldn't help but think of a girl with a bun and glasses.
Sadharu can't speak, so he can't tell himself how it came. And if Sadharu comes here, does that mean Kagura and the others will also come here?
"Let's check it out a little when we get back..."
…
In the Country of Grass, in a closed secret cave underground, Madara closed his eyes and listened to A Fei's words about Takasugi's performance in this war. He nodded frequently while listening, obviously very satisfied with Takasugi.
"Madara-sama, is that Jinsuke's?"
A Fei pointed to the row of five bottles of strange drinks with straws on the spotted stone chair. This was a drink Takasugi found when he went out in the past few years.
According to A Fei's observation, Takasugi likes this drink very much. Every time he encounters a lonely vending machine in the wild, he will buy some and bring it back for storage.
Therefore, one time when he went out to Takasugi, he bought a refrigerator and brought it back to store this strange drink.
"Madara-sama, Jinsuke will be angry if he finds out, right? I remember that's the only row in the refrigerator, right? Jinsuke also left a note in the refrigerator saying he would keep it, and I saw the note
I didn’t drink at all…”
"Humph!" Madara snorted. He was not interested in the little kid's things! He just picked them up and took a look at them out of boredom!
I don’t like this kind of sour and sweet stuff at all!
