Starting as the mastermind behind Naruto

Chapter 89 Roaring Waves VS Flowing Sand Waterfall! (Third update, please vote!)

Uehara Naraku watched with great satisfaction.

Although he doesn't master thousands of ninjutsu like Kakashi Hatake, his skills are far superior to Kakashi's.

"Let's randomly select one team of cuties for a check!"

Uehara Naraku activated his Fate skill, but all he saw were three squads of Sunagakure ANBU rapidly retreating towards the border.

Clearly, Uehara's frantic attacks on Sunagakure's ANBU during this period have attracted the attention of Sunagakure. In order to avoid innocent losses, they have begun to order the ANBU to retreat.

"How sensible!"

Just as Uehara Naraku was about to turn off the display of his Destiny Skill and report to Nagato and Konan, he saw a large group of Sand Ninja enter the range of his Destiny Display.

Uehara observed carefully for a while and saw several familiar people inside. Among them, the most familiar were the Fourth Kazekage Rasa and his son Gaara!

The Sand Ninja are not retreating!

They are concentrating their forces to invade the Land of Rain!

Uehara Naraku's expression immediately turned sour. He shook his head and sighed, "I just upgraded and bought equipment, and you guys come here to feed me kills?"

Now is the time when Uehara's confidence is at its strongest!

As a result, the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, stuck his head out... and incidentally gifted the Akatsuki a young Jinchuriki.

Rasa led only a few dozen Sand Ninja guards and Gaara into the Land of Rain. He simply wanted to test whether Gaara was qualified as the ultimate weapon of the Sand Village.

If Gaara can prove effective in actual combat, Rasa wouldn't mind sending his eight-year-old son to the battlefield to intimidate Amegakure.

This is the spirit of the Fourth Kazekage.

To protect the interests of Sunagakure, Rasa was willing to sacrifice everything.

Rasa, along with his squad of bodyguard ninjas, searched for the missing Anbu while also hunting down the brat who had driven away their ordinary Sand Ninja.

They quickly found the trail.

Or rather, they found the body.

All eight Sand Ninja ANBU squads perished in the Land of Rain.

Such a huge loss is undoubtedly devastating, amounting to almost a third of the Anbu trained by the Fourth Kazekage.

Moreover, the injuries on these ANBU ninjas were mostly from lightning release techniques or being killed by huge ninja swords, indicating that they all died at the hands of the same person.

Ma Ji stood before Rasa and whispered, "Lord Kazekage, based on the information we obtained from the corpses of some Jonin, these Anbu members should have all died at the hands of that Rain Ninja boy."

"So it really was him?"

Luo Sha rubbed his forehead, glanced at the corpse on the ground, and a flash of anger crossed his eyes: "All squads, search with full force! Fire the signal flare immediately upon finding any trace of him!"

"Kazekage-sama."

Maki knelt on one knee, gritted his teeth, and began to persuade, "Our large numbers entering the Land of Rain could very well trigger a war between Amegakure and Sunagakure... Konoha might also intervene in the Land of Rain."

"Don't worry."

Rasa waved his hand confidently and said in a deep voice, "After the Uchiha clan was wiped out, Konoha doesn't have much of a deterrent power now."

Maki: "..."

Their shadows are too ethereal, aren't they?

Back then, Sunagakure mobilized the entire nation's resources, only to be soundly defeated by Konoha ninjas at Mount Kikyo. A large number of young ninjas were captured, leading to a decline in Sunagakure's future talent pool, from which they have yet to recover.

"rest assured."

Rasa seemed to notice the impolite look in his subordinate's eyes and explained in a cold voice, "Sunagakure's strength is not yet sufficient, and I do not wish to start a war with Konoha for the time being... However, we can exchange interests with the Land of Rain in other ways."

"Yes."

Maki could only nod.

For Rasa, the Fourth Kazekage, to be willing to explain to him was already a sign of great respect for his trusted advisor.

Rasa twisted his wrist and said softly, "Didn't someone get information about Orochimaru before? Go back and tell Konoha that we're willing to help them capture Orochimaru!"

That's enough information.

Orochimaru is an S-rank rogue ninja of Konoha, and has been in the upper echelons of Konoha for many years, so he knows a lot of information about Konoha.

Konoha has been investigating him for years.

Using a rogue ninja who possesses a great deal of intelligence about Konoha to exchange for Konoha's concessions on the issue of a small country, Konoha is actually not at a loss.

Splash splash splash...

Suddenly, someone walked across the river.

He was a boy.

The boy walked confidently towards the Sand Ninja's camp, slowly extending his palm towards them: "Water Release: Roaring Waves!"

A wave appeared out of nowhere!

As the young ninja released more and more chakra, the surging waves grew larger and larger, reaching almost a hundred meters high, and quickly swept towards the group of Sand Ninja!

"Who goes there!"

"Enemy attack!"

At that critical moment, two Sand Village Jonin standing beside the Fourth Kazekage Rasa stepped forward and each unleashed their own Wind Release ninjutsu!

"Wind Release: Tornado Hurricane!"

"Wind Release: Great Kamaitachi!"

The gale instantly whipped up the waves and sent them surging into the sky!

However, this was only a temporary solution and did not address the root cause. In fact, the waves were so large that the two Jonin could only barely maintain their position for a few seconds.

The other Sand Ninja also began to unleash their Wind Release ninjutsu to help them block wave after wave of giant waves!

Clearly, faced with such towering waves hundreds of meters high, their ninjutsu could barely break through one wave with their combined strength, but they could not stop the waves that followed.

Rasa slowly raised his head and looked at the young Rain Ninja flying above the waves.

The young Rain Ninja stretched out his arms and paused in the air, with boundless waves surging forward below him, making him appear like a god!

Rasa frowned and thought for a second, then reached out and patted his son standing beside him: "Go, Gaara, use your power to solve this."

"…I see."

The red-haired boy's eyes gradually turned fierce, and wisps of yellow sand seeped out from the gourd on his back as he walked step by step toward the direction of the waves.

As Gaara walked, the ground beneath his feet gradually turned into yellow sand, and the area of ​​yellow sand slowly spread outwards.

As Goara stopped before the waves, he finally unleashed his ninjutsu, his childish voice tinged with a hint of bloodlust: "Flowing Sand Waterfall!"

Endless waves of sand surged into the air!

Wave after wave of yellow sand began to pile up and surge toward the sea, accumulating in front of the waves and forming a defensive wall of yellow sand.

The group of Sand Ninja retreated, their faces grim.

When Gaara unleashed his ninjutsu just now, he clearly didn't care about their lives or deaths, and seemed completely unconcerned about burying them under the yellow sand as well.

"Are they trying to kill us?"

"At least look at your companions, right?"

"You bunch of useless trash, get out of here."

Gaara glanced at them sideways, his face fierce, and said, "Don't hold me back, or I'll kill you all!"

"..."

The numerous Sand Ninja looked at each other in bewilderment.

Despite being only an eight-year-old brat, he spoke of killing his companions as if it were nothing more than stepping on an ant. No wonder this brat was never popular.

"interesting."

Uehara Naraku chuckled softly from the air, looking down at Gaara and saying, "Using quicksand to resist the impact of the ocean, what a foolish child!"

No sooner had Uehara finished speaking than an even higher wave crashed down the sand wall, and the boundless seawater surged towards the Sand Ninja once more!

This is a raging torrent that consumed the chakra of a standard Kage-level being, how could it be blocked so easily!
