23-Save Kushina (Last Part)

23-Save Kushina (Last Part)

After killing Renko, Ryuu deactivates Susanoo, as he feels severe pain and headaches while using it.

'Damn it, it was too painful, I had to find a way to develop the Mangekyou Sharingan into an immortal Mangekyou Sharingan or find a way to use Susanoo without needing the Mangekyou Sharingan like Madara' Ryuu thought.

After disabling Susanoo, Ryuu goes to Kushina's side.

"Ryuu, thank God you're fine" Kushina shouted hugging Ryuu tightly and began to cry, she thought Ryuu was killed in the explosion.

"It's okay, Kushina, I'm fine" Ryuu said as he hugged Kushina while stroking her back.

"Let me kill the last person and I'll come back to you" Ryuu told Kushina in a soft tone. Kushina nodded and walked away from him.

Ryuu looked around but could not find Kato, 'It seems like he ran away while I was talking to Kushina'

Ryuu uses his chakra senses to search for Kato's blurred existence.

'He's further away than I thought, ' Ryuu thought. He sensed the direction in which Kato was fleeing, who was fleeing in the opposite direction from Konoha.

"Kushina, wait for me here, I'll be right back," he said, then used a blink of his body to speed very fast towards Kato running.

...

'I have to tell Danzo-sama about this quickly, I didn't expect Ryuu Uchiha to be this strong' Kato thought as he recalled the scene where Renko was destroyed by Susanoo, who was the only one who had been killed by her, he was so scared that he ran as fast as he could.

As he fled, he felt danger coming from behind him, so he quickly jumped to the left. The place he was at before was full of secret weapons.

'Damn he followed me so quickly' He looked back but could not find Ryuu anywhere.

Suddenly, over twenty Ryuu surrounded him. Upon seeing them, Kato quickly performed a hand seal.

After Cato completed the hand seal, he placed both of his palms on the ground and sent chakra to the ground, a 6-inch nail raised from the ground sticking straight up. It extends about Kato 25 feet in each direction. The only place that was not affected was the small circle 5 feet wide where Kato stood.

After he finished the jutsu, twenty Ryuu jumped towards Kato. But at this moment Kato smiled and made a single hand seal and pressed their hands to the ground again. He sent chakra to the ground, causing all the spikes to fly out from the ground.

Ground Element: Rock Thorn Launch Jutsu"

The spikes lead to twenty Ryuu and hit them, but when the attack hits them, all twenty Ryuu turn into crows, and head towards Kato.

“Damn it, how long have I been in illusion?” The crows obscured Kato's view and floated around him. Suddenly he heard the sound of some birds chirping and saw a flash of light in front of him. But he couldn't get away in time.

Ryuu's hand using Chidori pierced Kato's chest. Then he pulled his hand from Cato's chest and said, "It's easy to put you in an illusion because of your great fear and the turmoil of your feelings."

After Ryuu withdrew his hand, Kato's body fell to the ground.

After thinking for a moment, Ryuu removed all the Explosive Labels from Kato's body. Then he lifted Kato's body and went to where Kushina was.

When Ryuu arrived at Kushina's place, looking at her in a daze, he dropped Kato's body onto the ground and approached her, and said to her with a smile, "Why are you so distracted, aren't you afraid of being kidnapped again? Well, even if you get kidnapped again, I'll save you."

Kushina heard Ryuu's voice and looked at him, feeling warm in her heart after hearing the last part of Ryuu's words.

"What are you thinking?" ryuu said while sitting next to Kushina.

"I'm thinking, because of me, you're putting your life in danger and even when I come back to my senses, I can't help you in a fight and when you almost die in that explosion, I'm not going to fight, I feel that I'm useless and that I caused your death, I want to become stronger to help you in the fight, I want to be stronger to protect myself so you don't risk yourself to protect me"

As she spoke, Kushina began to cry, and when Kushina said the last part, Kushina said, there was a firmness in his voice and there was a strong desire to become stronger and he swore to himself to become stronger.

When Ryuu saw Kushina crying while saying these words, Ryuu gently hugged her and said, "It's okay I won't die, also I'm sure you will become stronger."

After Kushina calmed down, Ryuu wiped the tears from her eyes and said gently, "Let's go home, you must be tired of everything that happened today."

Then Ryuu helps Kushina to stand up, and when she is ready to return to Konoha she sees that Ryuu went to Kato's body and carried her, she asks suspiciously, "Why are you going to ban this with us?"

"I'll take her body for Hokage to check her identity," Ryuu replied to Kushina's question. He hopes Hiruzen will do something about Danzo after providing evidence of Kushina's abduction. The best evidence is the body of this person from the Yamanaka clan.

Suddenly five people appeared in front of Ryuu and Kushina, Tsunade and Mikoto were among them and the remaining three were Chunin from Konoha.

"Kushina, are you okay?" After they arrived, Mikoto hugged Kushina. She had been worried about him since he disappeared and when she found out that Kushina had been kidnapped, she was even more worried.

"I'm fine, sorry to worry you, Mikoto," Kushina said

"Sorry it's too late, but apparently you can save Kushina without our help, and what body are you carrying?" Tsunade said apologetically, then asked what body Ryuu brought.

"He's one of the people who kidnapped Kushina, I'll take him to Konoha to confirm his identity, but I prefer Hokage to check on him personally" Ryuu replied. He hoped Tsunade would help him convince Hiruzen to personally examine his corpse.

"OK, I'll tell Sarutobi-sensei about it," Tsunade told Ryuu..
