Chapter 160: Chapter 160: Naruto had almost explored every part of Hinata's body (developed every aspect of Hinata's potential in a battle - related sense, a bit of a figure - of - speech here)
Frog Kata[b]Frog Kata[/b] is somewhat similar to Taijutsu[b]Taijutsu[/b], but in fact, it's Sage Art[b]Sage Art[/b] because it requires the use of Natural Energy[b]Natural Energy[/b].
The biggest difference between Sage Art[b]Sage Art[/b] and Ninjutsu[b]Ninjutsu[/b] lies in the utilization of energy. Sage Art[b]Sage Art[/b] requires the application of Natural Energy[b]Natural Energy[/b], and its effects often yield miraculous results.
Naruto and Hinata were almost clinging to each other. They both struck at the same time, each drawing Natural Energy[b]Natural Energy[/b] from the environment and respectively unleashing the Sage Art Frog Kata[b]Sage Art Frog Kata[/b].
The Forth Raikage[b]The Forth Raikage[/b] was greatly shocked. His intuition told him that although this move of Naruto and Hinata seemed plain, it actually concealed a deadly threat.
The Raikage took a step back, thinking to himself, 'At this distance, they shouldn't be able to land a hit on me.'
Sure enough, Naruto and Hinata each threw a punch, and both of their fists missed.
Suddenly, fist marks simultaneously appeared on the Raikage's left and right cheeks, and he spat out blood from his mouth.
Frog Kata[b]Frog Kata[/b] belongs to Sage Art[b]Sage Art[/b], and its effects can't be too simple.
After utilizing Natural Energy[b]Natural Energy[/b], the attack range of the Frog Kata[b]Frog Kata[/b] was increased, and its attack power was also enhanced.
To the naked eye, Naruto and Hinata's fists had missed, but in fact, both punches had landed solidly on the Raikage's face.
Naruto's fist hit the Raikage's left cheek, and Hinata's fist struck the Raikage's right cheek. The simultaneous impact of their fists squeezed the Raikage's face from both sides towards the middle.
The Raikage was sent flying far away, two of his teeth fell out, and he lay motionless on the ground.
Naruto frowned, thinking, "Although we hit him, given this guy's physique, this can only be considered a minor injury... No! It might not even count as a minor injury..."
Naruto wasn't wrong. The Forth Raikage[b]The Forth Raikage[/b] had been hit by two Sage Art Frog Kata[b]Sage Art Frog Kata[/b] strikes. If it were an ordinary person, they would have long since been unable to hold on.
But thanks to the Raikage's powerful physique, being hit by two Sage Art[b]Sage Art[/b] strikes didn't even count as a minor injury.
Now, the Raikage was lying motionless on the ground. He didn't care about his physical injuries at all; he was hurt in his heart.
Back then, he had fought Minato Namikaze to a draw, and neither could gain the upper hand. Now, so many years had passed. Minato Namikaze's son had come looking for him, and he ended up being beaten to the ground by the son of his former enemy. That was simply too embarrassing.
Naruto didn't know the situation and thought, "Is he pretending to be dead on the ground? Never mind, I'll step on him first."
Naruto gave Hinata a peck on the forehead, and Hinata quickly released her hold on Naruto.
This was a Code[b]Code[/b] that Naruto and Hinata had pre - arranged. A kiss during the battle meant to break the embrace and let Hinata serve as a mark for the Flying Thunder God Jutsu[b]Flying Thunder God Jutsu[/b], making it convenient for Naruto to break free.
Hinata stopped hugging Naruto and quickly stepped back, keeping a distance from the Raikage and choosing to stand in a safe place.
Once Hinata had chosen a location, it meant that the Flying Thunder God Jutsu[b]Flying Thunder God Jutsu[/b] had been marked.
Once Naruto encountered any danger, he could use the Flying Thunder God Jutsu[b]Flying Thunder God Jutsu[/b] marked on Hinata to quickly escape.
Naruto walked towards the Raikage. Looking at the Raikage lying on the ground, Naruto didn't say a word and directly lifted his foot and stepped towards the Raikage's face.
The Raikage suddenly snapped his eyes open and glared at Naruto menacingly.
Naruto wasn't fazed. He said he'd step on you, and he wasn't about to pull his foot back.
At this moment, Tarui flashed over and swung his two blades at Naruto. Sensing something amiss, Naruto quickly used the Flying Thunder God Technique[b]Flying Thunder God Technique[/b] to teleport beside Hinata.
After teleporting beside Hinata, Naruto smelled the fragrance on her body, and his tense nerves finally calmed down.
Anyway, the Raikage was an extremely imposing figure. Fighting against him always made one's nerves overly tense.
Naruto had almost explored every part of Hinata's body, not even sparing the fragrant smell. He even asked Hinata to use perfume with a calming effect so that he could maintain an excellent state during the battle.
"Damn it," Naruto cursed. "Can't beat me themselves, so they send the junior out."
"The Fourth Raikage sat up and spat out a mouthful of bloody spittle.
"Let's see what important matter you have to discuss with me." The Raikage recognized Naruto's strength. Only those with strength would be respected and taken seriously.
"Tsk," Naruto didn't give an inch. "I'll remember this kick. I'll definitely step on you later."
"What did you say?" Tarui said angrily. "It's really despicable for the two of you to fight against Lord Raikage. If you have the guts, let me join the battle too."
Tarui was a trusted subordinate of the Fourth Raikage, and his strength was among the top in Kumogakure Village.
Naruto knew Tarui. This guy will become the Fifth Raikage in the future.
"Humph, with just you?" Naruto burst into laughter. "Hahaha, train for another hundred years first. Do you think adding you will change the outcome of this battle?"
The Fourth Raikage placed his big hand on Tarui, indicating that he shouldn't act rashly.
"Good, it seems everyone has calmed down. Finally, we can talk about business." Naruto put his arm around Hinata again and said something seemingly serious in a playful manner.
"Humph," the Fourth Raikage was used to Naruto's behavior and left without looking back.
Zabuza Momochi was extremely excited. He was already certain that Naruto had a high chance of becoming the Hokage.
Watching the Raikage enter the village, Tarui said, "You may enter the village."
So, Naruto and his group stepped into Kumogakure Village.
Naruto was arrogant, holding a beautiful woman in his arms and followed by a group of followers. He visited Kumogakure Village with full aura.
Kumogakure Village was a very domineering village. They only allowed themselves to bully others and didn't allow others to fight back.
The news that Naruto defeated the Raikage at the village gate had spread throughout Kumogakure Village, making the villagers start to hate Naruto.
As Naruto and his group walked on the street, the people of Kumogakure Village lined up to watch, but there was no welcome. They all stared at them coldly.
"Why are the Konoha ninjas coming into our village?"
"I heard that the blond kid leading the group defeated the Raikage."
"Really? Can that dull - looking kid really defeat the Raikage? I can't believe it."
"Scum of Konoha, get out of our village now!"
"Our village doesn't welcome you! Get out now!"
"Trash pests of Konoha, someone in my family died by your hands."
"How many of our people in Kumogakure have been killed by you Konoha people?"
"Get out, Konoha!"
Naruto was grinning from ear to ear, waving at everyone and even blowing kisses to the villagers of Kumogakure.
"We're here on behalf of Konoha, coming with good - will to visit your village. We've also brought a big gift for all of you," Naruto said cheerfully.
However, the villagers of Kumogakure weren't buying it. Konoha and Kumogakure were once in a long - term war. They had been fighting for years, and many of the Kumogakure villagers had lost loved ones to Konoha ninjas.
Of course, it was a two - way street. Many Konoha villagers had also died at the hands of Kumogakure ninjas. Both sides suffered heavy casualties. As a result, they developed a deep - seated blood feud.
Tarui smirked. "You guys from Konoha are really 'popular'. Well, this is exactly what you deserve!"
Naruto wasn't about to back down. "The big gift I'm bringing will be here soon," he said.
