Escaping the Mist Ninja starts with backstabbing your teacher.

Yashamaru followed the other party's instructions and signed the contract with the skeletal spider if he was willing. After some hesitation, he finally pressed his bloody fingerprint onto the skeletal spider.

The summoning contract has been reached, and Izumi has received the other party's consent, so let's begin the operation!

"Yashamaru has agreed; he has already contracted the Skeleton Puppet Spider," Izumikawa said to Yokura.

At the same time, more white bones sprouted in his hand, and skeletal spiders crawled out of his palm, as if a nest had been buried in his hand.

Holding the skeletal spider, which had shrunk even further, these tiny creatures, now no bigger than a finger, were flicked out by Izumikawa like projectiles.

These round, chubby little creatures, because of their enamel, can all be called "white jade spiders".

Several skeletal spiders took flight, shooting out chakra lines that quickly connected on the building and rippled to their designated locations.

Meanwhile, the little spider, who had a special mission, approached the vicinity of those undercover agents, silently climbing up, its chubby body aimed at them.

"Corpse Bone Pulse. Spider Acupoint Strike!"

Izumi murmured to himself with amusement, while simultaneously shooting out condensed chakra needles that silently pierced their pressure points.

Like the pressure point technique used by the Hyuga clan, those ANBU members whose strength was below Jonin level all fell straight down and lost consciousness.

Under the cover of night in this secluded place, Izumi and Yekura, both dressed in cloaks, walked out openly.

Yashamaru also stepped out from the corner and landed directly in front of them, his gaze fixed on Izumi.

His voice was slightly hoarse, as if he was struggling with a huge decision.

"Are you sure you can guarantee that you can repair the seal, allowing Gaara to sleep like a normal person without worrying about the One-Tailed Beast's corruption?"

Izumi looked at the other party, seemingly feeling that the chips were not enough and that some more should be added, so he continued in a deep voice.

"That's natural. All you need to do is go on a rampage!"

"Through this rampage, you will also be able to see clearly the true faces of Luo Sha and those elders."

"Who contributed and who didn't, their attitude towards the village becomes obvious."

He wanted to collect the One-Tailed Chakra and also planned to replicate Konoha's Nine-Tails Night, turning it into Sunagakure's One-Tail Night.

Yashamaru, through his altered memories, firmly believed that all of this was a price paid for the better future of Sunagakure.

Since Konoha has Danzo, how could Sunagakure be without a similar character? Yashamaru is a perfect fit. The gentler a person is, the more ruthless they become when they turn evil and fall into depravity.

One act of retreat and forbearance will lead to countless more; one act of self-deception will also lead to countless more.

When these incriminating evidence reaches a certain level, just like tonight, even if the false memories are shattered, which side will he ultimately choose to stand on?

A smile crept onto Izumi's lips, but his outward expression remained calm. "Don't blame me for being despicable, Yashamaru."

His accumulated power is insufficient; even standing at the pinnacle of the ninja world, he still cannot surpass several peaks.

Nagato was one of them. He possessed the Rinnegan and those abilities. The power of the tailed beasts was just a power source for him.

It might be possible to avoid the resurrection of Madara Uchiha using the Impure World Reincarnation technique, but as long as the Impure World Reincarnation technique still exists, it is still possible for him to appear.

Furthermore, the invincible Otsutsuki clan, visitors from the heavens, will surely make the ninja world very lively.

After a moment of silence, Yashamaru finally said slowly, "I understand."

The slowly retreating figure revealed not only the path to Gaara's residence, but also his own weakness.

Izumikawa didn't stand on ceremony and walked straight over, quickly arriving at where Gaara was.

Little Gaara is cute, and he doesn't seem as irritable as he will be in the future. It seems that Yashamaru is behind him.

With her hands slightly outstretched and a happy smile on her face, Yashamaru felt a pang in his heart, and the image of his sister's final moments flashed before his eyes.

He failed to protect Gaara, nor was he able to show her any care. In the end, he was incapable of doing anything.

Now that Izumi has arrived, he has a choice. Regardless of whether the other party can actually do it, he has taken that step.

If he succeeds, part of the guilt he has been carrying in his heart will be eliminated.

There are basically no residents here, and the One-Tailed Beast has gone berserk more than once or twice. As long as Rasa and the others react quickly, it won't be a problem.

This is Yashamaru's answer after careful consideration, with a small element of gambling involved. The outcome will depend on the other party's malice.

Staring at Izumi's advancing figure, he knew that Gaara's Sand Guardian would stop anyone with malicious intent.

One step, two steps, three steps... until Izumi stood in front of Gaara and reached out his hand to him, but the sand grains did not react at all.

This relieved Yashamaru, as the other party harbored no ill will towards Gaara.

Izumikawa was unaware of Yashamaru's thoughts, but he truly harbored no ill will towards Gaara; all he felt was pity.

He will not break his promise to Yashamaru; he will mend the broken seal of Sunagakure so that Gaara will have no worries.

However, this happened after he had achieved his goal.

He placed a large hand on Gaara's head, silently whispering in his mind, "Optimization!"

The investment of his spiritual power allowed his mind to instantly enter Gaara's body, where he saw the One-Tailed Beast in that narrow, dark space.

The moment it entered, a pair of orange-yellow cross-shaped eyes quietly lit up, because it had already smelled the familiar scent.

"Hey, human!"

Why do you smell like a vixen?

Some of the plump, yellow figures, even when lying down, stood there like small mountains.

Before Izumikawa, a giant claw had already enveloped his head, awaiting his answer, as if it would crush him to death if it was not satisfied.

"One-Tailed Beast, Shukaku!" Izumi murmured to himself, raising his head slightly to look at the other.

This tailed beast, although it seems to have less chakra than the other tailed beasts, is skilled in wind release and sealing techniques.

Compared to other tailed beasts, Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, is quite intelligent.

"Because it was released by someone, but it was controlled and used by someone, and in the end it was sealed back up."

Shukaku was taken aback, then withdrew its claws and burst into laughter, for such news was something that would make it very happy.

"Hahaha, that stupid fox! I never thought it'd escape only to be controlled like this. If I get the chance, I'll definitely laugh at it to its face!"

A huge laugh echoed through the space, but the fat raccoon's expression changed the next moment.

Waving its enormous paws, it said coldly, "But I still don't like the stench of your fox!"
