Chapter 260: Gamabunta vs. Shukaku
🕑 Added 2022-03-10 15:14:47 +0000 UTCExchanging glances with Hatu, Shikamaru shrugged nonchalantly. For the first time he saw such a strange girl, even for a representative of spiders she seemed too bizarre.
After the departure of Isa, relief was reflected in the eyes of the spider, and he quickly examined his relatives, as if trying to tell them something. Right after that, one by one, they began to disappear.
Once all the spiders were gone, and most importantly, the creepy little girl disappeared, many people breathed a sigh of relief. They could have sworn that the mere presence of this seemingly innocent beauty scared the hell out of them! Especially her expression when she was killing people! The real demon...
Meanwhile, one of Shikamaru's clones helped deal with Orochimaru's Sound Four. While they put all their strength into trying to escape, the clone simply sealed them and rendered them harmless. In the end, only Sakon and Ukon died, and the rest were taken alive. Pretty decent combat trophies.
The second clone went to watch Naruto and Gaara fight. There, the battle of two jinchuuriki broke out already outdoor.
After dealing with Hatu and the others, Shikamaru closed his eyes and immediately teleported to his clone in the forest. Immediately returning it to his body, he sat down on a branch and began to watch the battle between the two giant creatures. Such a spectacle he managed to see only at the moment of his battle with Isobu, but it did not last very long. In fact, Shikamaru held a great desire to fight something like this again using his Susano...
Naruto duly summoned Gamabunta and fought the full version of the converted Gaara. Shikaku completely took over control of the body and had fun to the fullest. Even after meeting Isobu, he didn't change much, he disliked the Fox too much and didn't mind hurting Naruto at all. In addition, the One-Tailed character is not so hot, just give him a reason to run amok ...
The chakra of Temari, Sakura and Sasuke could be felt nearby. So Shikamaru moved there and immediately frowned as he quickly moved to his student's side.
"Hold on," he put his hand on Sasuke's injured chest, after which the emerald glow flashed brightly in the boy's eyes, and then his wounds quickly began to heal.
“Sensei…” the gloomy Uchiha finally smiled, “You have come.
“Fool, why did you get into battle, I told you, rely on Naruto!”
The sound of the battle between the two giant creatures shook the ground. As soon as Shikamaru appeared, Sakura and Temari finally felt relieved. Sasuke kept telling them all this time about his sensei and that he would help them. When they found out that this person was Shikamaru, they were scared and incredibly surprised!
Sasuke smiled wryly and shook his head.
How can I trust this jerk with my task?
“Hmm.” Frowning, Shikamaru folded the seal and immediately pulled out a chain with an adamantine pendant, exactly like the one that belonged to Haku, from the ring.
As soon as the Uchiha's chest was healed, the man directed the chakra into his finger and carved the symbol of his clan and name on the pendant, then putting it on Sasuke's neck:
Now you will wear it.
The guy shuddered in surprise, touched the chain, and then smiled strangely, looking sideways at the teacher. Temari and Sakura looked at Sasuke in surprise, and then at Shikamaru. There was something strange in their eyes...
"Wow... So he's not always this quiet and gloomy?" Haruno smiled sweetly as she looked at her friend.
- Okay. Standing up, Shikamaru stretched his neck and said:
- I'm going to finish everything. Naruto should be able to handle it, but he needs to play it safe. Noticing Temari's worried look, the man immediately nodded.
“Don't worry, your brother won't die, but your father... I killed him. All of Sand's forces are defeated and Orochimaru fled. Don't worry about yourself, I can protect you. Gently touching the girl's cheek, he smiled and immediately disappeared, quickly moving through the forest in the direction of the battle between the two jinchūriki.
Alone again, Temari's eyes filled with regret.
“So he... Died? Haaaa…” Turning her gaze to the sky, the girl let out a long sigh:
“I should be upset or…” Temari involuntarily closed her eyes, remembering how the Kazekage treated them and how he treated Gaara. For some reason, even this did not seem to be something significant now, after all, her father died ... Even if she did not feel his love, after all, he was her own father ...

- Air Bullets!
- Water Bullets!
The toad and biju released streams of wind and water. Gamabunta's techniques rained down on the area, and Shukaku's techniques tore down trees. These two have gone all out!
The battle, similar to two natural disasters, was impressive in its scale. Even if this is not the most terrifying event in the entire history of the forests near Konoha, it could at least be considered as such in the last decade!
Shikamaru watched this battle from afar for a bit and nodded gloomily. Everything went according to plan. Gamabunta, as he should, forced Naruto into action to break Gaara's sleep. He did it very quickly... The fight went as he was supposed to, almost without any changes.
"Just a little more and we can finish... Here and I owe something, just in case" - Shikamaru was still both a spectator and someone who could change everything on their own. Now he played the role of a judge, although at the same time he could not influence everything. Naruto therapy is a rare skill, its impact is hard to predict...
Temari, Sakura and Sasuke retreated. The Four, now the Sound Three, were taken by Ibiki for interrogation. Hiruzen finally decided to rest. The remaining sound shinobi either tried to run or let out their last breaths. The battle for Konoha was coming to an end. Orochimaru, like Kabuto, had long since retreated.
A few minutes later, the battle between the two jinchūriki ended. Naruto was still able to deal with Gaara and the two collapsed weakly to the ground. At least on this day, at least one battle ended as it was intended.
"Nice," Shikamaru turned around with a slight smile and immediately teleported into the adamantine tower. Sasuke and Temari then have to deal with everything. Now it remains only to wait until everything calms down and you can continue to act. In the shadows, one spare clone prepared a scroll with a seal for the bijuu chakra, and in the end, everything went well ... Finally, all significant battles came to an end.
