章 113: Chapter 113: The strongest Kazekage?
The battle is over.
Natsuo watched the corpse of the Third Hokage in silence.
He was once a heroic shinobi who was willing to sacrifice his life for the village, but later became a mediocre person who monopolized the village's interests and suppressed those who did not obey him.
Perhaps this is the most fitting way for him to die.
After killing the Third Hokage, Natsuo did not relentlessly pursue Orochimaru, but instead stopped his attack, burned the trees created by Wood Release, and let him go.
Honestly speaking, this time he was a bit unscrupulous. Orochimaru has been planning for so long, just to give his teacher a perfect ending. But in the end, Natsuo took away his chance to kill his master.
It may be that due to his transmigration he does not feel much for the genocide of the Uchiha clan, and the Third Hokage's manipulations may not have caused him any harm. But if he had not been strong enough, he could have been killed by Danzō or the Third Hokage at the slightest carelessness.
The death of the Third Hokage is necessary for both Natsuo and Konoha, that is why he never thought of interfering with the Orochimaru plan, but that does not mean that he will let the Third Hokage become a hero like in the Naruto Series.
"So, it's time to wrap things up..."
He smiled slightly and left the place.
Because both the Konoha shinobi and the Sunagakure and Otogakure shinobi did not want to harm the fainted nobles in the audience, they were somewhat restrained, and the intensity of the battle was low as they moved away from the audience.
Just as Natsuo expected, with the deliberate indulgence of Kakashi and others, as well as the intentional cooperation of Gaara, the battlefield moved away from the place where Orochimaru and the Third Hokage clashed.
At this moment, Gaara, who used the Full Shukaku Form, and those who left the exam site, are wreaking havoc within Konohagakure.
At the same time the evacuation of the Konohagakure villagers is almost complete. This allowed the Jōnin of Konoha to begin using their full forces without fear of collateral damage.
Kakashi wielded the Chidori and slashed a long scar across Shukaku's arm.
Might Guy opened the Fifth Gate and began attacking Shukaku, causing him to retreat repeatedly.
Neji also skillfully took advantage of the situation and used the Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven to protect his fellow ninjas multiple times.
However, although these annoying attacks couldn't completely harm Shukaku, they greatly angered Gaara. He ignored the original plan and directly used the Feigning Sleep Technique.
"It's finally happened, finally! Freedom is mine!"
A sharp cry sounded, sounding a bit neurotic. The Shukaku form's pupils began to spin, finally revealing a look full of ferocity and cruelty.
The ominous aura of violence accompanying it quickly spread, causing the faces of the surrounding shinobis to change.
'It's Shukaku... The real Shukaku!'
After venting, Shukaku began to launch attacks while laughing maniacally.
"Wind Release: Sand Buckshot!"
"Wind Release: Drilling Air Bullet!"
A frenzy of explosions turned the surrounding buildings into ruins in an instant.
The shinobis scattered and fled, hastily dodging - in the face of a true tailed beast, they could only temporarily avoid its sharpness.
However, Shukaku became more and more excited as it continued to attack.
Finally, it began to gather its ultimate move. The Tailed Beast Ball.
The positive black chakra and negative white chakra are compressed into a spherical shape in a ratio of 8:2, possessing tremendous power capable of vaporizing entire mountains easily.
Whether intentional or not, the target direction of Shukaku's Tailed Beast Ball is the Uchiha clan's residential area.
"Haha, Gaara, you specifically warned me not to attack in that direction? Now I insist on attacking there!"
"Even if I attack, what can you do to stop me?"
Shukaku's voice is high-pitched, revealing a sense of satisfaction.
"Not good!" Neji's expression changed and he intended to intervene forcefully.
But he is stopped by Hyūga Hiashi.
"What are you thinking, Neji!" Hiashi grabs his nephew and angrily says: "What are you, even if you risk your life, can you really stop a Tailed Beast Ball?"
"Also, in that direction is the residence of the Uchiha clan, not the residence of our Hyūga clan. So what if Shukaku attacks?"
Uchiha and Hyūga have always been rivals.
Although Hyūga now believes that Uchiha is no longer worthy of being their opponent, there is obviously no need to sacrifice their own genius to save them.
However, Neji doesn't care about any of that. What a joke!
If Shukaku really destroys the Uchiha clan residence, it is possible that Natsuo in a fit of rage will eliminate everyone present!
It might even involve Konohagakure and Sunagakure! After all, his entire family is now in the Uchiha clan's residential area.
But just when Neji was about to use his Chakra to free himself from his uncle Hiashi, he suddenly calmed down.
Because his Byakugan has detected a unique Chakra standing in front of Shukaku.
"Gaara must have his reasons for not allowing you to attack that side."
Natsuo appeared in front of Shukaku, and an arm of the Susanoo appeared at his side.
Shukaku widened his eyes and was about to say something when...
The next second, Susanoo's arm forcefully grabbed the Tailed Beast Ball and stuffed it into Shukaku's mouth!
[Boom!]
Shukaku's body begins to swell like a colossal balloon.
Cracks appear on the surface of his skin, almost as if it is fracturing from the inside out. The energy blast distorts her corporeal form, causing Shukaku's mass to stretch beyond its usual limit. His skin now appears deteriorated, as if it were marked by the aftereffects of countless blows and attacks.
But all this chaos and agony are just the outward reflection of the anguish that Shukaku endures within himself. As his body swells and heaves, the pain within is incomparably more intense, an amalgam of torment that echoes through his core.
Before he could howl in pain, Natsuo decisively grabbed him and threw him in the direction of Rasa, who had just been freed by Natsuo.
His originally fierce and crazy look now seemed completely lifeless.
"Rasa, you better control him otherwise I'll kill him." Natuso said calmly.
"I understand." Rasa forced a smile.
Waves of sand and gold surged up, trapping Shukaku to contain him. As someone who often deliberately provokes Gaara, he is quite experienced in controlling Shukaku.
After seeing this, Natsuo's figure disappeared using the Body Flicker Technique.
Everything happened so suddenly that the Konoha shinobi barely reacted.
"Who was that person?"
"Was it a Konoha shinobi?"
"I don't know, I was too busy dodging the attacks and didn't have time to see the person clearly."
"Now is not the time to think about that!" Kakashi took a deep breath, his face serious. "Look at the person over there, that's the Fourth Kazekage!"
Fourth Kazekage? Shouldn't he be fighting with the Hokage? Why would he appear here?
Could it be...
The Hokage was killed by the Kazekage?
The faces of the crowd changed, showing a solemn expression, and even some individuals had a sense of panic in their eyes.
They did not know that the Fourth Kazekage who attacked the Third Hokage was actually Orochimaru in disguise. They only knew that the Fourth Kazekage and the Third Hokage had started fighting.
Did the Hokage lose so quickly?
Isn't the Fourth Kazekage on the opposite side known as the weakest Kage?
However, the opponent's clothes were clean as if he had not received any injuries. Judging by his expression and his abundant chakra...
Damn!
Our Hokage can't even inflict a little damage on the 'weakest Kage'? Is the Hokage really that weak?
The current problem is who will stop the Fourth Kazekage!
Although he is known as the weakest Kage, his Gold Dust is the most suitable for use on the battlefield. Each move has a large coverage area and has a great killing effect on non-Kage-level ninjas.
"It seems that it's time for me to contribute to the village!" Might Guy's face showed determination. "If I open the Eight Gates, I should be able to kill him."
Kakashi hesitated to speak, but his strength was not enough, he was only an elite Jōnin.
What else could he say? Now there are only two choices left. Use the lives of everyone around to pile up against the Fourth Kazekage? Or use only Might Guy's life?
Kakashi hated this kind of multiple-choice question.
However, while the Konoha shinobis were tense for a long time, Rasa did not continue to attack Konoha.
On the contrary, while suppressing the Konoha Shinobis with Gold Dust, he shouted loudly: "The Third Hokage is dead! Sunagakure shinobis, we have achieved our strategic objective!"
"In the name of the Fourth Kazekage, I order everyone to retreat!"
"Konoha shinobis, the next time we meet will be on the battlefield!"
"Prepare to have your heads chopped off!"
He proclaimed loudly, full of spirit, as if he himself had just killed the Third Hokage.
Furthermore, while retreating with the Shinobis from Sunagakure, he launched a fierce attack on several Root bases according to the map provided by Natsuo.
He stood out with confidence and a heroic posture.
Seeing this, the Sunagakure shinobis became extremely excited.
"Indeed, Rasa-sama is amazing! He easily defeated the Hokage!"
"Rasa-sama is the true strongest Kazekage, even stronger than the Third Kazekage!"
The Sunagakure shinobis were full of spirit, and the morale of the Otogakure shinobis also rose.
But it was a bit strange that even though they had such a big advantage, why did they retreat from Konoha? Wouldn't it have been better to keep fighting?
"Perhaps Rasa-sama was worried that if they cornered Konoha, they would in a desperate act use some means of mutual destruction."
The crowd whispered to each other.
What they didn't know was that Rasa didn't want to stop fighting, on the contrary he was the one who wanted to continue the battle the most.
Since the powerful Konohagakure was founded, when has it suffered such a disastrous defeat like this?
This is truly the happiest moment of his life!
But he really doesn't dare to continue fighting...
Leaving aside the issue of whether they manage to defeat all the Konoha shinobi.
It is impossible for the Suna and Oto shinobi to occupy the Uchiha clan area.
Trying to do that is practically a death sentence!
As Rasa retreated, because on his escape route he began destroying Root's bases, Danzō became completely enraged and actually took the initiative to fight Rasa.
And then Rasa defeated him easily...
Although Rasa is considered the shame of the Kage level. But he is actually a standard Kage-level combat power, with considerable strength.
And Danzō himself is already old, older than the Third Hokage.
Furthermore, they are still close to Konoha, making it impossible for him to use Izanagi and Wood Release. He can only rely on his own Wind Release, which is really no match for Rasa's Kekkei Genkai Magnet Release.
As a result, the Suna and Oto Shinobi managed to escape from Konohagakure without further obstacles.
When has Konohagakure ever been so badly beaten? And not only were they beaten, but in the end, they let the enemy leave so arrogantly...
The shinobis remained silent for a long time. In the face of defeat and loss, the pre-existing conflicts converged here, combined with resentment, and finally erupted completely.
