Konoha: Uchiha, I get stronger by causing trouble.

Chapter 263 Shukaku: What is dignity? Can you eat it?

"Gaara, according to the Fourth Kazekage's orders, it's time for you to use that!"

After a moment of thought, Machi said to Gaara in a deep voice.

Kankuro and Temari wanted to object to Maki's decision.

After all, Gaara was the Jinchūriki of the Land of Wind and their younger brother, so they still felt a little reluctant to let him go.

However, they ultimately chose to remain silent.

As for Gaara, he had been unable to sleep day and night and had long been on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Now that he could hear something that would temporarily put him to sleep, he was overjoyed.

A hint of relief flashed across Gaara's ferocious face, and then his hands immediately formed a hand seal.

"The art of feigning sleep!"

In an instant, Gaara lowered his head and fell into a deep sleep.

At the same time, a surge of evil chakra erupted from Gaara's body.

Then, countless grains of sand enveloped Gaara, forming a giant tanuki.

The tanuki gradually grew larger and soon took on the shape of Shukaku.

"Roar! Hehehe, I'm out! I'm finally out!"

The moment Shukaku appeared, it began to shout and roar.

In its perception, neither of the two Jinchuriki with the Nine-Tails were nearby, nor was the guy with the Mangekyou Sharingan. It could cause as much trouble as it wanted!

"Where are you?!"

"Is that a Shukaku?"

"Damn it, they actually released a tailed beast into the village!"

"It's only been twelve years since the Night of the Nine-Tailed Fox, are we going to have to go through it again?"

"Damn it, did the First Lord not consult a feng shui master when he chose this location?!"

The Konoha ninjas, who had just established an advantage, all changed their expressions drastically when they saw Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, emerge.

After all, tailed beasts are like nuclear weapons; without a Kage-level expert present, they simply cannot be stopped.

Kakashi Hatake, who was at the Chunin Exams venue, also sensed the chakra of Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, and his expression darkened slightly.

"That boy named Gaara must be the Jinchuriki of the One-Tailed Beast from the Land of Wind."

"Damn it, I sensed something was wrong a long time ago, but I never expected it to be a Jinchūriki!"

"Is this the purpose for which Uchiha Chika had his subordinates give me the Three-Tails, Isobu?"

During the Chunin Exams, because Gaara was Sasuke Uchiha's opponent, Kakashi Hatake also paid attention to Gaara and felt that the boy was a bit unusual.

But to his surprise, the other party was actually a Jinchūriki.

From this perspective, the Land of Wind had long been preparing to cause trouble in Konoha.

What concerned him even more were the words of the smaller version of Sarutobi Asuma and the backup plan he had left for him.

This situation was clearly anticipated.

In other words, Uchiha Chika already knew that something unexpected would happen during the Chunin Exams!

"Hiss, is that guy from the past or the future?!"

"It's like the other person has already gone through this once!"

Kakashi Hatake muttered something to himself and quickly ran towards the direction of Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast.

He took out the sealing scroll of the Three-Tailed Isobu, but did not unseal it immediately, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes.

"That guy wouldn't be lying, would he?"

Although there is an explanation from a smaller version of Sarutobi Asuma, it indicates that the three-tailed Isobu in the scroll has been brought under control.

But this is Konoha Village. If this information is wrong, then it means that two tailed beasts are causing havoc in Konoha.

But there were no better options at the moment.

Jiraiya-sama has been held back by the three giant snakes, and the Third Hokage is also trapped in the Four Purple Flames Formation.

Kakashi Hatake glanced at Shukaku, who had begun to wreak havoc, and gritted his teeth to release the seal scroll of Isobu, the Three-Tailed Beast.

Bang!

In an instant, the Three-Tailed Isobu, the same height as the One-Tailed Shukaku, appeared in Konoha Village.

"Roar~"

Three tomoe flashed in the eye sockets of the Three-Tailed Isobu, and upon seeing this, Kakashi Hatake immediately jumped onto the top of the Three-Tailed Isobu's head.

He opened his three-tomoe Sharingan and stared at the Three-Tailed Isobu, quickly connecting his own eye power to the residual eye power of Chiga within the Three-Tailed Isobu's body.

The two echoed each other, allowing Kakashi Hatake to realize that the Three-Tailed Isobu below was already under his control.

"Phew, so that's how it is!"

"Such a huge drain on my eye power! I didn't expect controlling a tailed beast would require so much eye power!"

Kakashi Hatake felt a sense of relief, but the continuous flow of eye power into the Three-Tailed Isobu made him feel like his body was being drained dry.

It's even more unbearable than going through a whole roll of toilet paper in one night!

Despite the physical pain, Kakashi Hatake began to control the Three-Tailed Isobu and charge towards the One-Tailed Shukaku.

It seems they want to use the massive body of the Three-Tailed Isobu to push the One-Tailed Shukaku out of Konoha and put the battlefield on the outskirts of the village.

boom!

The three-tailed Isobu and the one-tailed Shukaku collided with a deafening sound.

Shukaku's body plowed a furrow several tens of meters long in the ground before stopping.

"Isobu, you've been controlled!"

When Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, came out, he was delighted to see his old friend and gave Isobu, the Three-Tailed Beast, a loving hug.

But it quickly noticed the three tomoe in the eyes of the Three-Tailed Isobu, and its expression changed instantly.

After all, among the tailed beasts, it only dislikes Kurama.

The other tailed beasts, on the contrary, are much more harmonious with each other.

"Hehe, let this tanuki save you!"

Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, laughed loudly, and the massive amount of chakra within him gathered at the back of his throat.

Wind Release: Sky Bullet Training!

A giant whirlwind condensed and blasted towards the Three-Tailed Isobu.

Under the powerful wind release, the three-tailed Isobu's entire body was lifted into the air, and then it was blasted away by a training bullet.

Boom boom boom.

The Three-Tailed Isobu was hit squarely in the abdomen by the air bullet, and its body flew more than a hundred meters away. Kakashi Hatake, who was standing on the head of the Three-Tailed Isobu, almost died.

"Damn it, we're no match for them!"

Blood was streaming from Kakashi Hatake's left eye socket.

Although he already had Chiga's eye power to control it, it was still too much of a stretch for him to use his three-tomoe Sharingan to flexibly control the Three-Tails Isobu.

"Kakashi, what have you been doing all these years?"

Just as Kakashi Hatake was about to give up, Chiga's voice rang out from behind him.

Kakashi Hatake was startled upon hearing this, but after turning around and seeing that it was Chiga, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Phew, you finally arrived!"

After defeating Shimura Danzo, Chiga sensed that the Three-Tailed Isobu had been summoned, so he quickly used the Flying Thunder God Technique to get to the vicinity of the Three-Tailed Isobu.

And just as I came down, I witnessed this scene.

"Hey, if your father sees you like this, he'll beat you!"

Chiga sighed.

"Father has already..."

"Chiga, does that mean your father is still alive in your world?"

Kakashi Hatake frowned slightly, a hint of joy appearing in his eyes.

"Ha, Uncle Sakumo really didn't commit suicide!"

"We'll talk about that later. I'll tie up Shukaku first!"

Chiga smiled, then opened his Mangekyou Sharingan and took over control of the Three-Tails, Isobu.

Kakashi Hatake originally wanted to ask more questions, but seeing Chiga's words, he knew the timing was inappropriate and obediently jumped off the head of the Three-Tailed Isobu.

Shukaku, who was walking towards Isobu, stopped in his tracks when he saw Chiga.

His small eyes looked at Qianhe with a very serious expression.

Shukaku asked, "Kid, it was you who controlled Isobu, wasn't it?"

"Yeah, and by the way, if you obediently go back into the Jinchuriki's body now, I won't beat you up!"

Chiga nodded and replied.

"Heh heh brat, I admit that the Mangekyou Sharingan is the nemesis of us tailed beasts."

"But once you've controlled Isobu, you no longer have the power to control me!"

"And that Isobu guy is no match for this tanuki!"

Upon hearing Chiga's reply, Shukaku laughed instead.

"That's absolutely true!"

Chiga nodded in agreement. Don't be fooled by the fact that Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, only has one tail, while Isobu, the Three-Tailed Beast, has three.

However, Shukaku's fighting power is among the top of the tailed beasts.

On land, the three-tailed Isobu is no match for the one-tailed Shukaku.

This is also why Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, dislikes Kurama.

Because Kurama believed that the strength of a tailed beast was determined by the number of its tails.

"Heh heh, human, you're much more reasonable than Kurama. In that case, this tanuki won't kill you!"

"Besides, this tanuki won't cause trouble in this village. Let's compromise: I'll leave, and you deal with the Sand Ninja, how about that?"

Shukaku laughed loudly, then made a suggestion to Chiga.

Chiga's Mangekyou Sharingan made Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, quite wary.

After all, if you push the other party too far and they release the control of the Three-Tailed Isobu and turn around to control it, where can it go to reason with you?

Moreover, it has its own little schemes.

They knew they had been liberated, but they came to this village to cause trouble.

If the Konoha ninjas and the Sand ninjas are entangled together, preventing the Sand ninjas from having time to seal it, it can take the opportunity to escape.

It's a win-win situation.

Freedom was right in front of it, and it had no desire to clash with Chiga.

"Compared to Kurama, you're rather clueless!"

Chiga shrugged and replied.

"Hmm? Don't mention that fox to this raccoon!"

[Negative emotions from Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, emotion value +50!]

Upon hearing this, Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, was furious. He had already abandoned his dignity as a tailed beast to come and negotiate with this little guy.

I didn't expect the other party to still not let it go. Don't they take it too lightly?

Thinking this, Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, swung its arm and slapped Chika, the Three-Tailed Beast, on the top of Isobu's head.

"Armored Susanoo!"

Chiga did not dodge the attack, but simply placed her hands on the top of the Three-Tailed Isobu's head.

Following the transmission of his eye power, a light blue armor quickly formed on the outside of the Three-Tailed Isobu.

With the blessing of Susanoo, the Three-Tails swung its three tails that reached out.

Two of them directly wrapped around Shukaku's two arms, firmly fixing Shukaku in place.

As for the other tail, it was raised high and then suddenly lashed out at Shukaku's head.

Snapped!

A crisp, loud slap landed squarely on Shukaku's face.

[Negative emotions from Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, emotion value +80!]

"Damn it, you Uchiha brat, you're asking for it!"

Shukaku was enraged and raised its head, opening its mouth as if to unleash a Tailed Beast Ball.

*Clap clap clap*

But Chika gave it no chance, and a series of slaps almost made Shukaku question its existence.

humiliation!

Endless humiliation!

At this moment, only these few words echoed in Shukaku's mind; he couldn't think of anything else, and his mind was still blank.

Shukaku tried to resist, but its resistance was like that of an infant, utterly futile against the violent and destructive power.

With the support of Susanoo, the Three-Tailed Isobu's strength increased dramatically, making it far beyond what the One-Tailed Shukaku could handle.

"Uchiha brat, this tanuki isn't done with you yet!"

Shukaku roared angrily.

It also wanted to just go back into the Jinchūriki's body, but the freedom it had finally gained made it unwilling to give up.

Does that mean we're going to have to go back to that cramped and dark space right after we come out?

No, what does dignity matter compared to freedom!

The next second, Shukaku released the Sleeping Technique, and its huge figure suddenly disappeared, entering Gaara's body.

Dignity may not matter much, but if things continue like this, it fears it won't be able to withstand the force and will kick the bucket prematurely.

Besides, the Nine-Tailed Fox is nearby. If the fight continues, and Kurama sees its pathetic state, it will be ridiculed for the rest of its life.

Since that's the case, we might as well go back earlier.

Gaara, who was still fully conscious, was completely bewildered.

What happened? How come I only slept for a few minutes?

When did Shukaku become so well-behaved?

"This raccoon dog is just as fragile as you; it can't even handle this little bit of injustice!"

When Chiga saw that Gaara had regained consciousness, he stopped maintaining Susanoo and withdrew it in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, he also sent the Three-Tailed Isobu to the spirit realm.

"Did you do this?"

Gaara hadn't yet been persuaded by Naruto's talk-no-jutsu; he was still in the stage of arguing with everyone and everything.

I finally managed to fall asleep, and I woke up so quickly. My morning grumpiness is terrifying.

He stared at Qianhe with murderous intent, then swung his arm forward, engulfing Qianhe in a cloud of sand.

"Sandfall Funeral!"

Gaara slightly squeezed his hand, and the sand enveloping Chiga began to press inward.

However, Chiga's body instantly transformed into more than a dozen crows, which flew behind Gaara and reformed.

Chiga gently patted Gaara on the back of the head, knocking him unconscious once again.

Seeing Gaara lying unconscious on the ground, Chiga kicked him.

"Aren't you coming out?"

Shukaku: "." You think I'll just come out because you tell me to? Don't I, Shukaku, have any dignity?

"Looks like they're scared of you and won't come out again!"

Kakashi Hatake walked over and looked at Shukaku, who was pretending to be dead, and said in astonishment.

Just then, Maki appeared before the two of them with Temari and Kankuro.

The three of them ignored Kakashi Hatake and focused their attention on Chiga, as if facing a formidable enemy.

"You actually have the nerve to come here? It seems you still want to reclaim your Jinchūriki?"

"Perfect, let's wipe you all out in one fell swoop!"

Kakashi Hatake sneered upon seeing this.

He knew his current physical condition was no match for them, but with Uchiha Chika there, there was no need for him to lift a finger!
