From undercover in Konoha, to I am the Hokage!

Chapter 256 He is so gentle
The blazing white light overflowed from the center of the endless yellow sand, engulfing the entire ruby-like poplar forest.

Along with the small lake in the center of the oasis, it was completely destroyed by the violent impact. Like silent soil, it was completely swallowed up by infinite light and heat, quietly turning into molecules that dissipated under the endless yellow sand, all disintegrating in the form of mist and being completely flattened.

Looking down from the perspective of the Sky Fortress, the scene is clearer and more spectacular.

Dozens of pure white spheres like floating bubbles rose one after another from the end of the horizon. The scattered radioactive dust stood like mushroom trees, lingering for a long time.

The fierce wind blew up a sandstorm, which drowned the nearby Konoha army like a tide.

Under normal circumstances, nuclear weapons are not so easy to detonate when they are not activated.

However, this time, the weapon that fired directly at them was the chakra cannon that had been accumulating energy for a long time.

The moment the intense energy was shot into the ground in the form of a high-density beam, the high temperature and high energy, which was enough to melt a human body instantly, broke through the surface insurance of the nuclear mines, causing the highly stable uranium nuclei to collide and explode rapidly. After the first one exploded, the second and third ones exploded one after another.
In just three or five seconds, the entire poplar forest oasis was completely razed to the ground, and no traces of this wonder of nature could be seen anymore.

Only the tall mushroom cloud and the deafening echo could be heard from the Konoha camp several miles away.

Everyone present looked at the scene happening before their eyes with horror.

Although most people did not know why Lord Sawara suddenly ordered the air force to launch a salvo attack on the oasis ahead, at this moment they were left with only a lingering fear in their hearts, and their heartbeats seemed to have paused for half a beat.

Only Sahara Kiri was watching this scene quietly.

The sandstorm that was drifting towards this side from afar was completely blocked by the "Unlimited Technique" that was always kept open around Sawara Kiri, maintaining a clear view in front of him and allowing him to see everything very clearly.

Kakashi Hatake, who was protected behind him, also had his eyes wide open and his gaze fixed. It seemed as if two small balls were floating above his black mask, and his whole body stiffened.

Although they had come close to nuclear weapons during the battle in Iwagakure Village, they just went dark before their eyes and remembered nothing.

It was the first time for him to witness the power of nuclear weapons with his own eyes.

"That, that's a nuclear bomb?!"

Uchiha Obito spoke in a daze.

He didn't even notice that his voice had become as sharp as a girl's the moment it was uttered.

However, no one laughed at him at this moment.

No one dared to imagine what kind of tragic consequences would have been waiting for them if they had really entered this forest without any preparation.

“That’s impressive, isn’t it?”

Sawara Kiri replied with a smile: "To be honest, even I didn't expect that guy to be able to make such a thing until I saw it with my own eyes."

It's a pity that his light tone failed to calm the boys and girls' inner fears as it did in the past.

In addition, there was another group of people whose hearts were beating wildly like theirs.

However, what filled these people's hearts was not horror and fear, but extreme anger, unwillingness and despair.

"Wow--"

The scorpion's body burst through the sand dunes from the deepest part of the earth.

The poplar forest that was originally large enough to conceal his figure had disappeared, and his broken body stood straight in the center of the conspicuous sandstorm like a target.

At this moment, obvious signs of ulceration and cracking can be seen on his skin, and sticky pus and blood are continuously flowing out of his body, which cannot be stopped at all.

However, at this moment, Scorpio no longer cared about these things.

Now, there was no one around him.

If they had followed the original plan and arrangements, they should have passed through the temporary passage deep underground, avoided the first wave of impact and radiation, and incurred thousands of casualties on the enemy side with the sacrifice of less than half of their men. In addition, due to the intense radiation, a small number of people, including Sawara Kiri, lost the ability to further attack, thus successfully blocking their offensive against the Sand Village.

But now, all assumptions have been completely overturned.

The Sand Village has lost its last straw.

"Sahara Mist"

A hoarse, hissing sound squeezed out from the scorpion's throat, which was bleeding continuously.

The skin on his face was rapidly festering, blood was flowing from his eye sockets, and he looked straight at the figure on the opposite sand dune that was looking down at him with his scarlet vision, and he roared uncontrollably from the deepest part of his soul:

"Sa!hara! Kiri--!"

Scorpio took a step forward.

With a crackling sound, pieces of puppet shields covering the surface of his body fell from him, and he ran faster and faster.

At this moment, Scorpion could no longer care about anything else.

No matter the reason for the exposure of this action, how should the Sand Village face the attack of this monster next, or his own life.

The short hair fluttering like flames, mixed with the bright red blood that had broken out of the scalp, scattered in the air with inertia and the wind, outlining a continuous arc. The whole body of Scorpion was like a fire burning along a fuse, launching the last attack of his life at the cost of exhausting his own life.

"Uranium escape!"

The radioactive dust in the air is the best medium for him to cast spells.

Although Scorpion has been infected by the high-concentration radiation field that is enough to make a Geiger counter emit a sharp sound, and has become neither human nor ghost, it is ironic that this is the best place for him to perform techniques since he developed the Uranium Release.

Scorpio can sense it clearly.

Radioactive isotopes were flowing violently in his blood vessels. Nuclear fuel and radionuclide residues sprayed into his lungs with every breath he took. The induced radioactive substances activated by the neutron flow wrapped around every inch of his meridians like a ignited flame, breaking and leaping along with the chakra.

This feeling is better than ever!

He grinned, thrust his hands forward, and shouted:

"Depleted uranium dust explosion!"

In an instant, the radioactive dust that was spreading like fog behind him all gathered in the direction pointed by Scorpion at lightning speed, and rushed towards the direction of Sawara Kiri like an overwhelming force.

next moment.

"boom--!"

A devastating explosion rose up at a distance almost touching the faces of Sawara Kiri and the army in front of him.

However, this is not enough.

Scorpion completely ignored the bulging blue veins on the surface of his skin, and directed the radioactive dust that continued to gather around his body as if controlling sand and dust, with his fingertips raised.

"Strong radiation neutron explosion!"

This time, the noise was far less shocking than the previous one.

But invisibly, the violently rippling neutron beam spread across the entire desert in the form of super-strong radiation.

One could vaguely see that the lizards buried in the sand and dust, the birds dancing in the wind in the sky, and the insects crawling around, all became stiff in the instant when the strong neutron beam was splashed, and froze in place as if they had suddenly lost their lives.

The scene before us had been engulfed by the backwash of sand and dust, and the sky with the sun rising high seemed to be shrouded in darkness under the cover of the mushroom cloud.

However, it's still not enough!
Sawara Kiri will never die so easily.

Scorpion seemed to have completely forgotten that his spirit had long been unable to hold on. Under the intense chakra consumption and strong radiation erosion, his body quickly deteriorated like an old man, as if every drop of blood and bone marrow in his body was squeezed dry. He clasped his hands together once again, and clasped his palms together in the direction of his memory.

Scarlet blood threads spread out in a grid-like pattern on the eyeballs that had already turned white. ".Divine Punishment - Three Phases!!!"

Almost at the moment the words fell, the scorpion's withered body shook violently for a moment, as if the last bit of its soul had been sucked away.

Soon after, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and the high-speed wind swept up a mushroom cloud that rose straight into the sky, sucking it upside down into the endless blue hole in the sky.

Finally, it turned into a sun falling from the sky.

Transformed into extreme light and heat, black and white.

Whether it was the impact or the sound, in front of this scene that seemed like a true punishment from heaven, they seemed to have completely lost their meaning, and turned into the purest inertia and vibration of all definitions, making people lose the ability to feel their existence.

Under this sun, even the Sky Fortress, which had already taken evasive action in advance and was several kilometers away from the epicenter, was shaking and unable to support itself. It was like a small boat falling into the raging ocean, becoming a huge monster with an incredible sense of fragility.

As for the land where Sawara Kiri and others were standing, it was completely swallowed up by this scene. Looking down from the sky, it was impossible to see anything.

Only the dark red body covered in blood was still standing there firmly, like an iron tower made of blood, and its soul was emitting the most extreme roar that surpassed all other sounds.

Until I don't know how much time has passed.

All these disaster-like scenes finally faded away.

A faint light penetrated the thick radiation clouds in the sky and fell into the center of the deep sand, illuminating the scene in the dark night.

The scorpion still stood there, its body dry and rotten, like a corpse that had been dead for who knows how long.

However, looking at his slightly trembling skin, one could tell that he was still using his last bit of vitality to try to confirm the final result for which he had gambled everything, including his life.

It's just that, wait until Chakra senses everything in front of it.

His festering face couldn't help but tremble.

Sawara Kiri still stood there quietly.

This was actually what Scorpio expected.

However, the people behind Sawara Kiri also stood there as quietly as chickens, as if they had not moved a single step from the beginning.

If the scorpion's eyeballs, which were now oozing pus and blood, were still connected to the optic nerve, it would be able to see.
From the initial radioactive dust, to the neutron beam, and even his final explosion with all his might, they were all blocked by a barrier as thin as a cicada's wing.

At the same time, this "unlimited" barrier did not, as Scorpion had expected, only maintain the safety of Sawara Kiri.

opposite of this.

The barrier that separated Sawara Kiri from the enemy was like a winding Great Wall, stretching along the boundary between him and Scorpion, creating a dividing line that was hundreds of meters long.

Inside and outside the line, separated into distinct yellow and black.

Looking down from above, the Konoha army surrounding Sawara Kiri seemed to be trapped in an invisible bowl, divided into two worlds with the outside world that was covered with pitch-black scorched earth for several kilometers.

Even the sand dune on which they were standing was forced to become a columnar peak with a height difference of tens of meters.

The people behind Sawara Kiri were not actually calm and composed. Instead, they all lost the ability to speak and even forgot to think after seeing the horrifying scenes before.

"How, how could it be possible?"

The scorpion has lost its vocal cords, so the sound coming out of its throat has actually been distorted and cannot be heard clearly. Only a sharp trembling sound can be heard.

His withered body seemed to want to take a step forward, but just as he raised his foot, he fell to the ground with a thud.

Only he kept repeating it in his mouth.

"how come."

He lost the last hope of Sand Village, risked everything in his life, and launched the strongest offensive with his life.
Even the tailed beasts could never reach this level.

Pus and blood replaced tears, sliding down his wrinkled and festering face, melting into the black scorched earth, and leaving behind his unwillingness.

But this time, Sawara Kiri did not make condescending sarcasm towards the enemy as he did before.

He took a step forward, walked in front of Scorpion, gently stroked the other's eyelids, which had already disappeared for the most part, and said:

"No ninja can match you in attacking at this level."

"scorpion."

"I approve of you."

Despite all of Scorpio's plans, there was no chance of success from the beginning.

But Sawara Kiri also knew it very well.

Even for him, if he led a large army to encounter such an attack at close range before obtaining the "Limiter Release", he would probably find it very difficult.

The only pity is that there is no 'if' in reality.

The moment he heard these words, Scorpion's slightly trembling body suddenly stopped.

In the blurry light and shadow, he seemed to be able to see the outline of Sawara Kiri as she leaned over to look at him, as well as that indifferent and calm gaze.

He is so gentle.

As Scorpion thought this, his consciousness gradually fell into eternal darkness.

Sawara Kiri stood by and watched quietly for a while, until the man had completely lost all vital signs, then he bent over and bury Scorpion's body.

Then he stood up and turned to look in another direction.

At the far end of this death zone, a figure carrying a puppet stood there quietly.

The Konoha Legion behind him quickly retreated from this radiation belt, minimizing physical damage as much as possible.

The figure walked towards Sawara Kiri step by step.

Garuro was still as silent and calm as usual. He walked into the dark pit as if he was oblivious to the radiation belts around him. He finally stopped when he came face to face with Sawara Kiri.

"It's been a long time, Fourth Kazekage-sama."

Sawara Kiri's smile was still gentle and warm, but it seemed somewhat out of place in this radiation zone that symbolized death.

"Have you anticipated this outcome?"

"I just wanted to take a look from a distance."

"But... since the opponent is you, it's not surprising."

Jialuo's voice was unexpectedly calm. He silently took off the puppet behind him and stood aside.

Sawara Kiri looked at the woman who appeared alone in front of him and her almost suicidal actions with some confusion in his eyes.

After untying the bandages on the puppet, revealing the still lifelike Luo Sha, Jialuo suddenly looked at him and said slowly:

"Sahara Kiri."

“What will the world of the future be like?”
