Naruto Time Control
Chapter 98: Return

The defeat of the main Sunagakure forces, of course, meant the loss of the war.

When news of what had happened reached the flanks, learning that the main army had been defeated and that the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, had ordered a retreat, they immediately scattered and fled.

Sunagakure's losses on the southern battlefield were not too great, but the losses on the northern battlefield exceeded even the main army!

The reason for this is quite simple.

Minato was there!

On that day, the ninja of Sunagakure once again experienced the horror of the Flying Thunder God's technique, As more than twenty Jounins and almost a hundred Chuunins died at Minato's hands!

The last time the Flying Thunder God Jutsu appeared in the ninja world, it was when Senju Tobirama was still alive, but in this battle, Minato showed amazing skill, surpassing Tobirama in terms of adaptation and speed of activation of the technique!

"Ha ha..."

Kakashi was breathing heavily, clutching a Kunai in his hands.

Blood was dripping from the Kunai, his mask was damaged, wounds were visible on his body, his chakra and physical strength were on the verge of exhaustion.

Whoosh!!!

Minato appeared next to Kakashi and gave the command to the Konoha forces.

"That's it, don't continue the chase!"

Kakashi was not only severely exhausted, but Minato had also used most of his chakra, and the rest of the Konoha ninja were far from being in the best condition, continuing the chase would inevitably lead to an increase in casualties on their side, so there was little point in doing so.

Initially, Minato's authority as a flank commander was not too high, but when the battle ended, his authority had risen to unprecedented heights, and after hearing the order, the Konoha forces immediately stopped the pursuit and quickly assembled.

"Is it over...?"

Kakashi calmed his breathing and looked at Minato.

Minato nodded, "Yes, it's over. It seems that the main forces of Sunagakure have been defeated and they no longer have any reason to hold us on the flank."

A light shone in the depths of Minato's eyes, he had initially assumed that the situation on the flanks would have an impact on the main battlefield, but suddenly something went wrong with Sunagakure's main forces.

You should know that he did not face Sunagakure's strongest ninja here.

It turns out that the enemy's main attack power should be concentrated on the main battlefield or the other flank.... Since the center collapsed so quickly, Sunagakure should have focused on breaking through the other flank, but the early collapse of the main forces led to defeat in the entire battle.

This can be understood.

After all, on the main battlefield were Tsunade and Jiraiya, two legendary Sannin, as well as Yeruashi, such a quick defeat seemed quite normal, it is just unclear what impact Yeruashi had.

While ordering the Konoha ninja to clear the battlefield, Minato asked the sensor squad to contact the main battlefield, and soon got information from the main battlefield.

"Reporting to the commander!"

"Our losses on the central battlefield are around seventy ninja, the enemy's losses exceed three hundred ninja, the Elder of Sunagakure, the Puppet Master, Chiyo, fell on the battlefield, which caused the Kazekage to retreat along with the remnants of his army!"

After hearing the report, Minato asked in surprise, "Chiyo is dead?"

Elder Chiyo is known throughout the ninja world and is recognized as the strongest puppet master, standing at the pinnacle of puppet master existence, her fame is not inferior to and even surpasses the three legendary Sannins, so it was unexpected that such a powerful ninja would fall on the battlefield.

"Yes..."

The ninja in charge of communication nodded and said, "The puppet master, Chiyo, was defeated by the Tokubetsu Jounin, Hatake Yeruashi, and was killed by him, during the battle he used some forbidden technique and now he is sent for treatment."

Hearing this, Minato of course was very surprised, he thought that Chiyo was defeated and killed by one of the Sannins or even a group of ninjas, but he didn't expect her to be killed by Yeruashi.

This made Minato smile bitterly.

On such a battlefield, it is unlikely that anyone can compete with a skilled Hiraishin user in terms of number of kills, but Yeruashi's victory over a famous opponent changes everything.

Even if Minato performed well on the battlefield, killing at least a hundred enemy ninja, Yeruashi will still outshine him, because Chiyo's strength and skill are recognized throughout the ninja world, her death will surely be a high-profile event.

"Chiyo..."

Kakashi was confused.

He didn't know the details of Chiyo and his father's battle during the Second Ninja World War, but he still has a strong impression of this ninja, because Chiyo is one of the pillars of Sunagakure and holds the title of strongest puppeteer.

Unexpectedly, such a powerful ninja died at the hands of Yeruashi, and it seemed that his older brother had already become a fully accomplished ninja.

Of course, Kakashi always believed that sooner or later Yeruashi would reach this level, but he didn't expect it to happen so fast, he would only be eleven years old in two months!

However.

Kakashi quickly turned away from the commotion and anxiously turned to the ninja in charge of the communication, "My brother was sent for treatment due to the use of forbidden techniques? Is he in serious condition?"

The ninja answered immediately, his voice full of respect, "Yes, it seems to be very serious, Tsunade-sama personally delivered Tokubetsu Jounin Hatake Yeruashi to the camp and took care of his treatment."

There will inevitably be a price to pay for using a forbidden technique.

Yeruashi used a forbidden technique, doing his best to kill one of the enemy's strongest ninja, such a ninja will cause genuine respect, regardless of his age.

Whoosh!!!

Hearing these words, Kakashi shuddered and immediately ran in the direction of the camp.

Minato caught up to Kakashi and said, "I'll send you straight to the camp."

He understood Kakashi's concern, after all, he was his older brother.

Kakashi stopped and bowed gratefully, "Thank you for your help, Minato-sensei."

Minato nodded and felt the seal left on the camp, then placed his hand on Kakashi's shoulder, activating the flying Thunder God.

Kakashi's figure instantly disappeared.

...

Konoha's camp.

Shizune and other medical ninja remained in the camp, waiting for the wounded to arrive.

When Shizune saw Tsunade escorting two medical ninja with a stretcher, she immediately stood up.

The ninja in charge of guarding the camp was going to verify Tsunade's identity, but she only cast a powerful chakra fluctuation, which made them pale abruptly.

"Out of the way!"

Tsunade exclaimed loudly.

The ninja immediately moved out of the way.

Such powerful and heavy chakra could only belong to Tsunade, they could have faked her appearance, but not her chakra.

Moving to the side, the guards felt a strong curiosity, to their surprise, Tsunade personally took charge of escorting the injured man to the camp, who is lying on that stretcher?
