Tsunade did not turn on the Yin Seal, and then used Creation Regeneration to rush forward, because Jirai also stopped her.

If the Yin Seal is turned on, it will be beyond the scope of "switch competition". This one-on-one challenge is not a life-and-death battle. Rather than saying that Tsunade suspects that Ethan wants to test his strength, it is better to see how powerful Ethan's wooden escape has.

Facts have proved that Ethan does have the ability to force Orochimaru to retreat, and although his wooden escape is very different from the first Hokage's wooden escape, it is indeed a wooden escape.

It's enough to confirm that these are enough!

More importantly, Tsunade used Creation Regeneration in the battle with Orochimaru not long ago. This ninjutsu has a heavy burden on Tsunade herself. Although she is equivalent to immortality when using this ninjutsu, it will reduce her lifespan when using it. Frequent use will only cause herself to die earlier.

Jiraiya didn't want Tsunade to reduce his lifespan because of a competition, so he took action to stop the battle.

The cherry blossoms that were originally gathered slowly drifted away, and then fell to the ground lightly. As Ethan stopped his ninjutsu, the cherry blossoms slowly disappeared.

Like Jiraiya, there are Sasuke and Naruto in the distance. They are very familiar with Ethan's fighting style just now, which is the enemy they fought not long ago.

“Ethan’s way of using petals…is a bit like Gaara…”

"Yes!"

Sasuke clenched his fists, and he remembered the powerlessness he felt when facing Gaara. No matter how hard he tried, he could not defeat that terrible guy.

However, Ethan was able to use ninjutsu that was very similar to Gaara, which means Ethan's strength was at least similar to Gaara?

Considering that Ethan forced her to retreat Orochimaru and did not suffer any loss in fighting against Uchiha Itachi, she was in front of her just now, with Tsunade, who was about to become Hokage.

"So... is his real strength so strong?"

He suddenly felt that it was a very correct choice not to choose Orochimaru but to let Ethan help him improve his strength.

The competition ended like this. Although someone was very dissatisfied with it, she also remembered that she had used the seal once not long ago. The stored chakra had been consumed. If she used it again to create regeneration, she would probably have consumed all the money she had accumulated over the years.

"Damn it, I couldn't force this little devil out of all his strength!"

This is the most unpleasant thing about Tsunade. Like the third generation, it gives her a feeling of depression that she is old and completely surpassed by the new generation.

Fortunately, Tsunade quickly woke up, and her purpose here was not to decide the winner with Ethan.

"Anyway, you can do normal operations."

With Tsunade's visit, Ethan no longer has to act as a wounded person, and can go out and perform tasks at will.

“It seems my vacation is over.”

"Yes, there are still many things to do next. You are one of the core combat forces of Konoha Village now. How can you be lazy here?"

"When did I become Konoha's core combat force?"

He has just graduated from Ninja School, right? Even the Chunin has just completed the promotion procedures and has not even officially announced it to the outside world. Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki didn't know that he had been promoted to Chunin.

"Forcing Orochimaru to retreat, Uchiha Itachi, and even played against me without a chance of winning or losing... How many ninjas do you think in Konoha can do this?"

Tsunade just made an example casually, but she didn't expect that Ethan in front of her actually spread her fingers and calculated carefully.

"Third generation, you and Jiraiya are the two existences of the three ninjas. Teacher Kai, who is burning youth, can be motivated and use all his strength...."

There is also Shimura Danzo, who should be able to do it, after all, it is just forcing him to retreat. He has enough messy trump cards on his body, and it is difficult to kill or defeat those two people, but simply forcing the opponent to retreat should be able to do it.

Tsunade didn't expect that Ethan actually mentioned several names, the third generation old man, and Jirai next to her was not surprising. As for Kakashi and Kai... she only has a rough understanding of the strength of these two people. Are they so strong?

At this time, I'm afraid no one except Ethan knew how terrifying combat power those two guys were hiding.

If you just force Orochimaru and Uchiha Itachi to retreat, Kai, who has mastered the ultimate move of the Eight Gate Desert Armor, can definitely do it, and you don’t even need to open the Eight Gate.

As for Kakashi, he needed a prerequisite to do this: he realized that he already had the Maneid Sharingan and was able to use the power of the magic in battle.

In addition to these two, although Konoha has many Uchinos, its strength is obviously lower than that. But even so, Konoha's Uchinos' strength is not bad. With the advantage of quantity, even Orochimaru and Uchiha Itachi will have a headache.

Konoha is really full of talents... This is good news for Tsunade, who is about to become Naruto.

But Tsunade thought about Ethan's subtext from another perspective: "What you mean is that only these people in Konoha are stronger than you? Little kid, are you too arrogant?"

"No, no!"

Ethan immediately waved his hand, looking like "I didn't, I wasn't, don't talk nonsense!", which made Jirai, who had a weird expression, relieved a little: it seemed that Tsunade was thinking too much, Ethan was not such an arrogant little devil.

However, the next sentence made Jiraiya's drink just now spray out the wine (they were sitting in the dining room of Uchiha's house for dinner).

"I just said they can do those things, but I never said they are better than me."

“…”

Tsunade squinted her eyes. Those who knew her would know that she was full of fire now. The calmness on the surface was just a layer of disguise that could be broken with one click. If she didn't know how to tease her life or death, she would definitely explode.

Fortunately, Jiraiya interrupted in time, trying to ease the tense atmosphere. In addition, he was also very surprised. Why did Ethan, who had always been very low-key, suddenly make such arrogant remarks?

"Because no outsiders can hear it..."

"?"

“!?”

Naruto and Sasuke were confused, while Jiraiya and Tsunade were stunned at first, and then shocked. They both made the same moves almost at the same time.

Illusion: Explanation!

As the two people moved, the surrounding scene suddenly changed strangely, everything around was twisting, and then suddenly shattered.

Unlocked?

Neither Tsunade nor Jiraiya's face improved because they found that the surrounding scene had become a plain without seeing the edge, and there were eight trees around them, in pairs of front, back, left and right directions.

Sasuke and Naruto found that the rice bowl in their hands had disappeared and suddenly they were in a completely unfamiliar place, looking at the grass swinging by the breeze, the petals that were occasionally blown off the trees, and the dark blue night sky covered with stars...

What’s amazing is that it is clearly a night scene, but there is light from where it comes from, allowing them to see everything around them clearly.

"When.........?"

“From the beginning.”

Ethan's voice was floating, as if it was floating from all directions, making it almost impossible to tell his specific location. It was not until this time that they realized that Ethan had disappeared at some point, and they did not realize this, as if Ethan had not been here.

"What a terrible illusion."

Everything seems natural, as if that's it.

What surprised Tsunade the most was that as a medical ninja, she was immune to most illusions, but she not only got hit by this illusion, but she couldn't even crack it.

Illusions basically use chakra to interfere with the target's chakra, which in turn affects the target's senses to complete its own illusion effect.

As the top medical ninja, Tsunade has very strong control over her chakra, which means it is difficult for outsiders to interfere with her chakra, so ordinary illusions almost do not work for her. Even if they have a little effect, she can quickly remove the illusion effect.

But this time no matter how she tried, she could not unravel Ethan's illusion, as if she had not been hit by the illusion.

But everything in front of her clearly told her that she was in a magical illusion space.

"When you said at the beginning... meant when we first met?"

"Yes."

Tsunade bit her lip and actually got the other party's trick as soon as she met? But why did Ethan use illusion as soon as she met?

"Why do this?"

It is not only Tsunade who wants to know this, Jiraiya also wants to know: Could it be that Ethan is really a spy sent by the enemy to Konoha?

“To avoid trouble.”

"What's the meaning?"

"If I fight you without reservation, even if I only use some of my strength, I will attract the attention of a certain guy... No, I should say that I have received the attention of that old guy now. After all, there are several more eyeliners in Uchiha's mansion than when I first came."

“…”

Tsunade and Jiraiya suddenly became silent. They immediately understood what Ethan was saying, but Sasuke was stunned. The amount of information about Ethan's words was a bit large, and he couldn't digest them for a while.

Naruto was even more confused. He was not his own personality, and when he couldn't understand, he would ask simply: "What does it mean?"

"To put it simply, it's just that someone is eyeing me, and I don't really want to pay attention to that guy."

Ethan's voice still came from all directions. The feeling of talking to the invisible people made the few people present feel uncomfortable.
