Konoha: I, Ninja War Sakura, rely entirely on skills!

Chapter 144 The King and the Mount

Chapter 144 The King and the Mount (6K)

Blazing sun, yellow sand, scorching wind
The one-eyed old man in a black and white robe looked at the chaotic battlefield in front of him. His single black and white eye was exceptionally calm.

Even if there was a person on the other side who was no less powerful than him and was killing Konoha ninjas on the battlefield, he remained indifferent.

Corner capital
He was once a traitor of Takigakure. After the Takigakure's attempt to assassinate the Stoichi Hokage failed, he was mercifully let go by the Stoichi Hokage.

But later on, because he was afraid of being held accountable by the first Hokage, he was abandoned by the Takigakure.

Thinking of this, Danzo Shimura showed a disdainful smile.

It would be great if that gentleman really had this idea of settling accounts.

Otherwise, the entire ninja world will have to submit to Konoha's power.

Kakuzu had been employed by the Sand Village for several days, and his background had long been uncovered by Konoha's intelligence network.

Danzo Shimura deeply despised this guy who told everyone that his opponent back then was the Shodaime Hokage.

The guy who was spared by that great man actually used the title of Shodaime to flatter himself...

……

"Fire Escape·Tou Ke Ku!"

However, with just a casual fire escape, the overwhelming flames rushed towards the Konoha ninja like a galloping and roaring beast!
With just one move of the technique, five or six Konoha ninjas had no time to escape and were buried in the sea of fire.

"Five more."

Kakuzu's pair of green eyes were fixed on the Konoha ninja who died under his technique.

According to the price of 100,000 ryo for each Konoha ninja offered by the Sand Village, he has earned over 10 million ryo from this war.

After all, it is easiest to die in a chaotic army.

Money is so easy to make.

"Wind Escape·Press!"

The fire was not out yet, and Kakuzu used another wind escape technique.

A violent hurricane came out of his mouth, the wind fueled the fire, and the fire started with the wind. The fire escape that was originally powerless once again created a raging wave of fire!

"Water Style Class!"

"Come on!"

This time, the Konoha ninjas immediately organized the water-style ninjas to fight back against the angle's combined wind and fire techniques.

"Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!"

Three or four water-style ninjas immediately formed hand seals and spit out water walls from their mouths to resist the overwhelming combined wind and fire ninjutsu!

The ferocious flames slammed into the thick water wall, water and fire intertwined, and the two mutually restraining escape techniques immediately raised water vapor that was enough to block the vision!

For a moment, a large area of the battlefield seemed to be trapped in the Mist Hidden Technique of the Mist Hidden Ninja!
“Hey, that’s interesting!”

When Kakuzu saw this, a cruel smile appeared under his mask, and he immediately rushed forward!

At the same time, the Sand Village ninjas immediately cooperated with Kakuzu to charge towards the Konoha ninjas!
"Wind, get ready."

The masked ninja who had been hiding in the dark spoke as he looked at Kakuzu who was wantonly reaping the lives of Konoha ninjas.

"Well, it's ready."

Shan Zhongfeng, a member of the Yamanaka clan with orange hair, began to make seals with a serious expression.

At the moment when Yamanaka Wind formed a seal, Aburame Tone had already taken off her clothes and rushed towards Kakuzu quickly.

A dangerous purple tint covered his body, the result of the bugs he controlled.

There are countless nano-sized insects infected with highly poisonous substances. Except for him, anyone in this world will surely die if they touch him!
"Humph."

"Are you so eager to rush over here and die?"

When Aburame Tone rushed in front of Kakuzu, Kakuzu sneered.

Kakuzu naturally noticed the strange purple 'skin' on the other person's body, and to be on the safe side and not get into trouble, Kakuzu immediately used the Earth Spear Technique, a technique that allowed him to escape from the earth.

His whole body turned dark. He avoided Aburame Togen's punch, then tore off his sleeve, wrapped it around his fist and hit Aburame Togen!

Why has Kakuzu lived so many years?
In addition to benefiting from his secret technique of Earthly Resentment, it is this cautious mentality!
The opponent's purple skin was obviously abnormal, and even if he used the earth spear technique at this moment, Kakuzu still felt unsafe.

When Kakuzu's fist reached Aburame Tone, the opponent suddenly stopped!

"The Heart Turning Technique was successful!"

Kakuzu suddenly spoke without any context.

"The wind is too slow."

Aburame Tone spoke with a smile, then without hesitation, she grabbed Kakuzu's neck with a lightning-fast palm!
The nano-sized poisonous insects in his hand that were invisible to the naked eye rushed towards Kakuzu like a tide!
At the same time, the moment Aburame Togen grabbed Kakuzu's throat, she instantly retreated!
After several years of cooperation, he already knew that the mercenaries from the Sand Village were doomed to die!
No one can resist the poisonous insect of Aburame Togen!

"Ah, wow, you, what did you do to me?!"

The moment Yamanakafeng retreated, Kakuzu's consciousness immediately returned.

The fight just now seemed very long, but in fact it was only one round, and the whole process took less than three seconds.

At this moment, Kakuzu only felt that his body was being rapidly corroded and rotten by something!
"Nano-level poisonous insects, if you are attacked by me, you will be dead."

Aburame Torine calmly stared at Kakuzu who was kneeling on the ground in agony.

However, at this moment, Kakuzu was no longer able to respond to Aburame Tone's words.

His throat had been completely destroyed by the nano-sized poisonous insects, and every structure of his body was also being rapidly destroyed!
Finally, the tall figure fell to the ground with a loud bang.

The journey of the strongest bounty hunter in the underground black market of the ninja world also came to an end here.

A ninja who came from betrayal, obsessed with wealth and money, but now disappears because of money.

Aburame Tone looked at Kakuzu, who was completely dead and breathless on the ground, and squatted down.

He must retrieve the poisonous insect.

Otherwise, the entire area would be completely eaten up by these nano-sized poisonous insects, and then they would continue to reproduce and bite.

If it is not controlled, the entire River Country will be destroyed.

Destruction in the true sense of the word.

There will be no grass growing, only scars all over the ground.

He had experienced this kind of thing before. Due to a moment of carelessness, a large area of forest was destroyed. If he had not tried his best to absorb the poisonous insects into his body again, he couldn't imagine what would have happened.

This is also his ability as the strongest trump card of the Root.

He stretched out his hand and absorbed all the poisonous insects on Kakuzu's body.

Looking at the silent body of Kakuzu on the ground, Aburame Toru took a look, and finally turned around without any regrets...

Urgent news!!!

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the battle report in his hand and suddenly felt dizzy and his blood rushed to his head!

Danzo Shimura!

Danzo Shimura! !
Shimura Danzo!!!

Sarutobi Hiruzen was furious and his eyes were bloodshot!
A force of six thousand men!
A total of 6,000 troops!
Four thousand killed!
How dare you!

How dare you!
Looking at the front-line battle report in his hand, the clear black and white words on it looked as if they were carved in blood in Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes!

Nano-level poisonous insects, you just give them to others like that!

"What a strong heart..."

A silent and gloomy voice sounded behind him, which made Aburame Togen turn around in horror!
puff!

The black tentacles instantly penetrated Aburame Togen's body!
Aburame Togen could feel the black tentacles stirring inside her body, as if trying to dig out her heart!

"no, do not want……"

If I die and the poisonous insects get out of control, this area will be destroyed directly.

When she was on the verge of death, Aburame Tone did not beg for mercy, but was thinking about the lives in this area and the many Konoha ninjas here.

If he dies, all these people will die!

Not only Konoha ninjas, but also Sunagakure and nearby civilians.

One counts as one!
"Begging for mercy?"

"Your bugs are mine."

Kakuzu controlled the tentacles of Diyuanyu, and with a sound of flesh peeling off, the tentacles had already dug out a bloody heart that was still beating!
Countless tentacles entangled, surrounded, and fused with the heart, and finally became part of the body!
At the same time, the nano-level poisonous insects on Aburame Tone's body completely exploded!
Without the control of their master, they devour everything wantonly!
The purple color continued to spread around with Aburame Tsuchigen's body as the center!

But the only exception is that they all actively avoided Kakuzu!
Kakuzu's eyes lit up as he watched the scene.

What a terrifying power! If I hadn't used my three hearts to hold back their devouring, if Aburame had waited a little longer, if...

Where do so many ifs come from!

The battle of ninjas is a battle of intelligence!
Not knowing Aburame Tone's abilities and the fact that the opponent also had a ninja from the Yamanaka clan as his partner, Aburame Tone was successfully hit. This was the information gap of Aburame Tone.

Aburame Tone took back the poisonous insect without knowing that Kakuzu had five lives. Kakuzu used three lives to withstand the poisonous insect's gnawing, successfully killed Aburame Tone, and took his heart. This was Kakuzu's lack of information!

This time, Kakuzu truly experienced the feeling of dancing on the line of death.

The poisonous insects eat extremely quickly, not only eating the enemy's flesh, but also devouring his chakra.

The moment he fell to the ground, it wasn't that he didn't want to fight back, but that he simply couldn't fight back.

Fortunately, the poisonous insect ate three of his hearts and was taken back by Aburame.

But in an instant, without anyone controlling it, the rampant poisonous insects spread wildly, like a poisonous plague devouring, multiplying, and growing wildly without distinguishing between friend and foe!
All the Konoha ninjas and Sand Village ninjas who were contaminated by the purple wave were like being thrown into a pool full of sulfuric acid, corroded, melted, and decomposed in wailing and painful despair!

Even if ninjutsu can kill some of the bugs, when they have already grown to a large scale, the speed of their elimination cannot be as fast as their reproduction!
This moment is...

A sea of worms,

A feast for insects,

Bug carnival!

"Somebody come!"

"Send a message to Aburame Shiwei, Aburame Shihei!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately gave orders, ordering the two former Aburame clan leaders and the current clan leader to come immediately!

Soon, the two clan leaders arrived at the Hokage's office at the same time.

The two Aburame clan leaders, who were dressed similarly, looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen, whose face was as dark as water, in front of them with some trepidation.

"Take a look at this battle report."

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't waste any time and directly threw the battle report in front of the two clan leaders.

With just a quick glance, the two Oil Maiden clan leaders couldn't hide their horror even though they were wearing sunglasses.

Aburame Tone was arranged by Danzo Shimura to assassinate the immortal ninja Kakuzu. The assassination failed. Kakuzu seized the heart of Aburame Tone. The nano-poisonous insects went out of control and directly devoured countless Konoha ninjas and Sand Village ninjas!
According to rough estimates, four thousand Konoha ninjas in River Country have been killed!

"How to deal with it?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sat in the main seat and spoke with a gloomy face.

The top priority now is no longer the war, but how to solve this insect plague!

"If that horde was intent on controlling the poisonous insects, this situation would not have occurred."

After thinking for a long time, Aburame Shiguro finally spoke carefully.

But his answer obviously did not conform to Sarutobi Hiruzen's intention. Sarutobi Hiruzen still had a sullen face and did not speak.

Intentional control?

After taking control, will they target Konoha? !
What a joke!
"What I need is how to solve this corner."

Hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice, Aburame Shiwei's heart tightened, and she immediately spoke:

"We will go back and study how to control the nano poisonous insects, but we need samples of the poisonous insects."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression eased slightly after hearing this, and then he said:

"Okay, the poisonous insect samples will be delivered to the Aburame tribe in three days."

After the two clan leaders left, Sarutobi Hiruzen's deep voice was heard from the office:

"Order that Shimura Danzo be stripped of his command authority at the front and return to Konoha immediately. The battle at the front of River Country will be taken over by Mito Kado En."

"If Shimura Danzo disobeys orders, you can use force to take him back."

"No mistakes."

Clouds, rain, golems
In a mysterious place in the Hidden Rain Village, on a huge golem with a terrifying face, colorful shadows appeared on nine of the ten outstretched fingers.

"Nandou."

Pain, who represented Zero Zang in the first place, looked at Kakuzu, codenamed Nanto.

"What happened on the battlefield of River Country?"

Before Jiao Du could speak, Hei Bai Jue, codenamed Xuanwu, started laughing:
"Alala, I know that!"

"Kakuzu stole the heart of a Konoha ninja and nearly died!"

"Then, the Konoha ninja's bug went berserk!"

"They devoured 6,000 to 7,000 ninjas from Konoha and Sand Ninja!" "Even one of my clones was killed~~~"

Kakuzu looked at Zetsu calmly and said:

"If you don't speak, no one will treat you as mute."

"Wow! So many people died at once!"

"Lord Evil God will definitely be happy!"

Feiduan, codenamed Santai, immediately came to support his big brother.

"Kakuzu, can you control those poisonous insects?"

Pain did not ask about Konoha and the Sand Ninja, but instead asked about the poisonous insects.

In Pain's opinion, the fact that his subordinate Kakuzu acquired new abilities and became more powerful is more important than the attitude of Konoha and the Sand Ninja.

As for whether his subordinates will retaliate?
He is God.

is an invincible existence.

Moreover, in Pain's view, this rampage of poisonous insects only caused Konoha and the Sand Ninjas to feel a little pain.

"can."

Kakuzu looked at Pain and spoke in response.

Even though he acquired new abilities, he did not dare to face this leader directly.

"Hey, there's such a big commotion over there in Kakuzu."

"Is the Sand Village still trustworthy?"

This was a sinister statement made by Hoshigaki Kisame who wanted to help the Sand Village fight against the Iwagakure.

The opponent is the Iwagakure Kotobuki, which is famous for its joint ninjutsu. Kisame's series of water jutsu are of no use against their exaggerated earth jutsu.

“They have to trust us.”

"The Sand Ninja had no choice."

"If it weren't for us, the Sand Ninja would have been defeated long ago."

Pain had a cold expression on his face as he told the current situation of the Sand Ninja.

Even if two or three thousand ninjas were eaten by poisonous insects, so what?
The Sand Ninja cannot leave Akatsuki.

They will just put the blame on Konoha, even though it is indeed the case.

They will spread the word that in order to defeat them, the Konoha ninjas used a secret technique that could not distinguish between friend and foe. Fortunately, with the help of the Sand Village ninjas, they joined forces with the immortal ninja Kakuzu to successfully contain the insect plague.

Kakuzu will become the hero of Sunagakure.

Haha, a mercenary becomes a hero of Sunagakure.

How ironic.

But isn’t this true?
Uchiha Itachi silently watched everything in front of him, and no one knew what he was thinking under his scarlet Sharingan.

He seemed like an outsider at the moment.

"Itachi, what do you think?"

Pein looked at Itachi who remained silent.

"……No."

Itachi's words obviously made some people unhappy.

"Hey, hey, hey, isn't our little Itachi unhappy because so many Konoha ninjas died? Hmm!"

Deidara, codenamed Azure Dragon, is as talkative as ever.

"Deidara, if you want to die, I won't stop you."

Hoshigaki Kisame, who was in the same group as Itachi, suddenly let out a sinister laugh.

"haha, really?"

Seeing his younger brother being threatened, Scorpion, codenamed Jade Girl, cast his emotionless gaze at Hoshigaki Kisame.

"Why, do you want to do it?"

"You know, I'm fighting for your former village now, hehe."

Kisame looked into the emotionless eyes of Scorpion and spoke provocatively.

“Kisame…”

A hoarse voice came out of the scorpion's mouth.

"You shark-face, you want to have a taste of my art? Hmm!"

Deidara also looked at Hoshigaki Kisame with a common hatred for the enemy.

"Just a kid playing in the mud."

Hoshigaki Kisame looked at Deidara gloomily.

"enough!"

Payne finally spoke at this moment, stopping the increasingly tense conversation among his subordinates.

As Payne spoke, everyone couldn't help but shut up.

This is the deterrent power brought by strength.

No matter what kind of conflict there is, in the face of absolute power, even a group of arrogant and domineering guys in front of us can only bow their heads obediently.

Payne looked at the scene before him and became more certain of the correctness of his idea.

The golden chain swam in front of her like a spirit snake. Karin looked at the scene and her eyes lit up slightly.

In order to complete the King Kong Seal ahead of schedule, Tsunade took a shortcut.

The sealing circle of the Diamond Seal was drawn directly on Karin's body, and Karin provided the chakra to activate the Diamond Seal.

In this way, not only can Karin truly experience the operation process of the Diamond Blockade, but she can also start the next suppression of Rakura more quickly.

On the third day after Karin became familiar with the Kongo Blockade, Sakura once again came to the third training ground.

This time everyone learned from the last lesson, and Tsunade even directly covered the entire training ground with the Diamond Barrier.

Sakura was trapped in advance to prevent Ri Sakura from going crazy again.

Sarutobi Hiruzen also arrived at the scene with a heavy heart, to support Sakura.

"Vajra barrier."

Tsunade held a sword in one hand in front of her chest, and golden chains from all directions tied Sakura up like a dumpling.

At the same time, Karin also activated the Diamond Seal on her body, extended a golden chain, carefully pierced into Sakura's chest, and slowly injected her chakra into Sakura's body through the chain.

The bright red blood dripped down the golden chain, which made Karin feel a little distressed.

"It's time to start."

Feeling Karin's chakra full of vigorous vitality in her body, Sakura spoke calmly.

Tsunade then looked at Sasuke beside her.

Sasuke received the order, opened his Sharingan and looked directly at Sakura.

At this moment, Sakura lowered her head helplessly.

Li Ying, who appeared last time, did not appear this time.

Tsunade frowned at the scene before her.

You know it's useless to come out, so you just don't come out?

However, Sasuke's abnormality at this moment attracted Tsunade's attention.

The black-haired boy pursed his lips tightly, his face a little distorted.

This means Sasuke couldn't get in?
Just as Tsunade was about to ask, Sasuke responded with a trembling voice:

"I was thrown out..."

"The moment I entered Sakura's inner world..."

—Inner World—

Blue sky
Baiyun
Tall building
building
Sakura looked at everything familiar in front of her in a daze.

Sasuke was not by her side, and this time she was alone.

Sakura was currently on the rooftop of a building, the breeze ruffling her short pink hair as the girl glanced around.

It was quiet and deserted.

The countless cherry blossoms from last time all disappeared at this moment.

It's as if it has never appeared.

This broken and disordered world is now filled with dead silence.

"Hey, King."

A pink silhouette appeared behind Sakura.

Sakura looked back and saw someone who looked exactly like her standing on the edge of the rooftop with one hand in her pocket.

The wind from the tall building made her robe rustle.

The other person's outfit was different from Sakura's ninja outfit. Apart from a pair of ninja pants, her upper body only had a white bra, with a large area of white skin exposed, showing off her poor figure.

And unlike Sakura's short hair, she has a long pink ponytail behind her head...

The other person's smile was wanton and wild.

The whole person seems to be extremely aggressive.

"How about this, the gift I prepared for you last time."

"How do you like it?"

When facing others, he always calls her "I", but when facing Sakura, she rarely calls herself "I".

"Oh, if I'm not mistaken."

"Your power has dropped to a historic low, right?"

Sakura ignored the so-called gift and slowly took out the brass knuckles and put them on her hand.

"So-called power?"

Li Ying seemed to have heard something funny, and there was a gleam of evil humor in the other person's phoenix eyes.

"Na..."

"Sakura..."

Li Ying grinned...

"Do you know the difference between a king and a mount?"

Looking at Ri-Yakura like this, Xiao-Yakura's face was solemn:

"What did you say?"

"I'm not asking you about 'man and horse', 'two legs and four legs' or any other little kid's guessing game..."

"Whether it's posture, ability, or strength."

"If there are two identical beings!"

Riying with a ponytail clenched one hand into a fist, and pink light appeared in her hand. In the opponent's hand, a pink brass knuckle with a smiling cat face appeared.

"One side rules the battle as the king!"

"When the other party uses it as a mount to increase combat power!"

"What's the difference? That's what I'm asking!"

Sakura looked at the other person calmly, and the solemn atmosphere in the air became increasingly thick.

"There is only one answer!"

"It's just... instinct!!!"

“What people of equal strength need in order to exert greater strength.”

"What one needs to become a king!"

"It is to seek battles regardless of everything, pursue power, and ruthlessly destroy the enemy and ravage them to pieces!"

"Stay absolutely eager to fight!"

"The absolute desire for battle and killing is engraved in our genes!"

Riying's smile became more wantonly and her emerald eyes looked at Xiaoying with pure malice.
