Killing his way through the ninja world, starting from being adopted by the second generation!

It's been a while since I've been to the Land of Wind. I wonder if Sunagakure has developed much over the years.

"Okay, meow." Scarface nodded.

Although the environment in the Land of Wind is equally harsh, it is much better than that in the Land of Rain.

At least its fur won't get wet from the rain...

Chapter 299 Were they discovered before they even went in?

The Country of Wind, Sand Hidden Village.

"Lord Kazekage, something terrible has happened!" A Sand Village ninja rushed into the office without even knocking.

"What happened?" the Second Kazekage, Shamon, asked, frowning.

Normally, guards wouldn't panic unless a serious incident occurred.

"Lord Kazekage, the seal is loosening, and the Jinchuriki is about to go berserk!"

"What?!" Shamon jumped up from his chair. He hadn't expected the village's Jinchūriki to go berserk again.

Not every ninja village possesses powerful sealing techniques like Konoha, which can perfectly suppress the tailed beasts within them using the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques. Other villages' sealing techniques are very rudimentary, barely able to seal the tailed beasts within their jinchūriki.

Due to the immaturity of the sealing technique, the Jinchūriki are at risk of going berserk at any time.

The previous Jinchūriki of Sunagakure died after Shukaku broke free of its seal. The power of the Tailed Beasts is extremely strong, and it took them a great deal of effort to reseal Shukaku into a new Jinchūriki.

As a result, not long afterward, the sealing technique began to loosen.

"Damn it!" Shamon clenched his fists in frustration. "If only we had the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan!"

The Uzumaki clan is renowned throughout the ninja world for its powerful sealing ninjutsu; as long as they obtain sealing techniques, they can suppress tailed beasts.

Unfortunately, Sunagakure, an ally of the Land of Whirlpools and Konoha, cannot launch a war against the Land of Whirlpools in the short term.

"Quickly take the Jinchūriki out of the village!" Shamon hurriedly gave the order.

If the Jinchuriki leaves the village, even if the Tailed Beast breaks free of its seal, it will not cause any damage to the village.

The Sand Village was already very poor, and if it were to be destroyed by the Tailed Beasts, it would be adding insult to injury.

"Understood!" The Sand Village ninja immediately left the office and headed to the cell where the Jinchuriki was located.

Seeing this, Shamen quickly followed.

Fearing that the Jinchūriki would go berserk, the Sunagakure leadership restricted his personal freedom, imprisoning him in a dungeon and isolating him from the world from the moment he became a Jinchūriki.

A Jinchūriki who could go berserk at any moment is terrifying; he must never be allowed to appear on the main street of the village.

No one knows when the tailed beasts will break free of their seals...

In the dark and damp cell, the only source of light was a flickering oil lamp on the wall.

The bald monk sat cross-legged on a prayer mat, his hands clasped together as he chanted scriptures incessantly. His robes were already soaked with sweat.

"Namo Amitabha Night, Duotagadu Night..."

With each recitation, the monk's pale face grew even more ashen. His body trembled uncontrollably, and the black runes on his bare arms wriggled as if alive—a sign that the sealing technique was beginning to loosen.

Clearly, Shukaku inside the body is trying to break the seal and escape.

"Damn bald monk!" Shukaku's hoarse, furious voice exploded in the monk's mind. "Stop chanting that damned scripture! When I get out, I'll kill you all!"

Within a sealed space imperceptible to ordinary people, a gigantic raccoon-like monster is wreaking havoc. Its entire body is composed of sand and gravel, its surface covered with violet-colored cursed patterns, and it roars loudly within the sealed space.

The monk sat opposite it, separated from Shukaku by only a door. He did not respond to Shukaku's roar, continuing to silently recite Buddhist scriptures.

"When I regain my freedom, the first thing I'll do is crush all of you lowly humans into mincemeat!" Shukaku opened its blood-red maw, and violent chakra continuously emanated from the cell.

Inside the cell, the monk's body trembled even more violently, and tailed beast chakra began to emanate from his body.

"Senior brother, hold on! Lord Fengying is coming soon!" A young monk stood anxiously at the door, trying to comfort the monks inside.

At this moment, a burst of rapid footsteps came.

The Second Kazekage, Shamon, arrived with several elite ninjas, many of whom were skilled in sealing ninjutsu.

If the tailed beasts break free of their seals, they can reseal them.

"Lord Fengying, please save my senior brother!" the young monk pleaded anxiously.

"Take him out of the village." Shamen ignored the other party and immediately gave the order.

"Lord Kazekage, this is too dangerous!" a Jonin warned. "What if the seal completely collapses during the transfer..."

"We absolutely cannot allow the Tailed Beasts to appear in the village!" Shamon interrupted him, his sharp gaze sweeping over the Tailed Beast chakra seeping through the cracks in the cell door. "Proceed according to plan, and be quick!"

"understand!"

Two ninjas skilled in sealing techniques immediately stepped forward and began rapidly drawing complex seals on the monk's body, which could temporarily suppress the tailed beast within him.

Their movements were skillful and swift, but the beads of sweat rolling down their foreheads betrayed their inner tension.

If the tailed beast were to break free now, the two of them would be doomed.

Sand began to appear on the monk's skin, creating a strange, uneven surface. Its eyes had completely transformed into beastly pupils, yet it continued to mechanically chant scriptures.

"Quick!" Two men lifted the monk up, and the others immediately stepped forward to assist. The group left the prison in a grand procession.

Upon seeing this, the young monk quickly followed.

When they arrived on the street, the civilians were terrified and scattered in all directions.

"Lord Kazekage has brought that monster out!" a woman screamed, grabbing her child and running away.

"Quick, hide! The tailed beast is about to emerge!"

Hearing these shouts, anger and pain flashed in the monk's beast-like eyes. He struggled to say something, but only spat out a mouthful of sand.

The Sand Village ninja wanted to stop and check on the monk's condition, but Shamon stopped them.

"Ignore it and keep moving forward."

"Monk, see? They don't care about your life or death at all!" Shukaku's voice echoed in his mind. "Don't resist anymore. Wait for me to come out and kill all these ants for you!"

The team quickly made its way through the panicked streets, heading towards the canyon on the west side of the village.

The monk was being supported by two men, his feet already off the ground, yet he was still convulsing. His body was turning into sand, and the wind blew the sand and dust into the village.

Inside the sealed space, Shukaku felt a long-lost sense of freedom.

"Hahaha, foolish humans!" Shukaku laughed arrogantly, "Once I get out of here, the first thing I'll do is raze this whole village to the ground!"

An unprecedented burst of chakra erupted from the monk's body, blasting away several ninjas around him.

"Do not--!"

The monk's screams were drowned out by a deafening roar. His body shattered like a broken ceramic jar, and endless yellow sand gushed out from the cracks, coalescing into a gigantic form.

First came the claws, then the tail, and finally the hideous head.

The thing that Shamen feared most has happened—

Shukaku broke the seal and appeared in Sunagakure!

In the desert not far from Sunagakure, a person and a cat are traveling.

"Wait, is that Shukaku?"

Lianye suddenly stopped in her tracks, staring blankly at the giant tanuki that had suddenly appeared in the village, a hint of shock flashing in her eyes.

"No way, I was discovered before I even got in?!"

Although I killed a lot of Sand Ninja on the battlefield, the Sand Village shouldn't have to resort to using Tailed Beasts!

How the hell are we supposed to play this?!

Chapter 300 Should we go again, meow?

"Let's run, meow!"

Scarface's fat trembled with fear. It was just a defenseless ninja cat, facing a powerful tailed beast with only death on its side.

"Damn Sunagakure, they actually used a tailed beast against me!" Renya looked angrily at the roaring Shukaku in the distance. "Luckily, I left the Flying Thunder God seal beforehand, otherwise I would have been done for today."

Although he is quite strong now, he is not confident of winning against the encirclement of Shukaku and the Sand Village ninja.

Dealing with just one tailed beast is acceptable, but I'm worried about others secretly sabotaging or launching sneak attacks.

Furthermore, tailed beasts can use powerful tailed beast balls; if you're accidentally hit by one, you'll be reduced to ashes.

He doesn't have the Mangekyou Sharingan now, and the power of the three-tomoe Sharingan alone isn't enough to control a powerful tailed beast, so he can only use a yo-yo.

The gentleman does not stand under the wall.

Lianye grabbed the fat cat by the scruff of the neck, preparing to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to take the fat cat away from this dangerous place.

Just then, Shukaku's next action stopped his teleportation. He suddenly realized that Shukaku's target wasn't him, but Sunagakure...

"Hahaha! Freedom! I am finally free!" Shukaku laughed loudly, and under its control, a sandstorm appeared in the village.

Its belly, covered in purple runes, swelled up, pointing towards the Sand Village below: "Let's start with a little something to say!"

boom!

A Tailed Beast Ball shot out from Shukaku's mouth, tracing a distorted trajectory through the air before striking the Kazekage Building in the center of Sunagakure. The shockwave from the explosion leveled all buildings within a hundred meters radius, and flying sand and gravel pierced through houses even further away like bullets.

Screams and cries filled the air.

"Hahaha, that's awesome, so awesome!" Shukaku let out a hearty laugh.

Lowly humans dared to seal themselves away; this is the price they deserve!

Shamon's eyes widened in fury as he rapidly formed hand seals: "Sand Release - Sand Boundary Technique!"

Suddenly, the sand on the ground transformed into countless flying needles that shot towards Shukaku. However, these sand needles, powerful enough to pierce steel plates, were assimilated into ordinary sand grains the instant they touched Shukaku's body, scattering and falling away.

Shukaku of the Sands is no joke; defeating it in the desert is extremely difficult.

"Foolish humans!" Shukaku laughed maniacally, swinging its giant claws, and three sandstorm tornadoes instantly formed in the village. "Trying to fight me with sand? Let me show you what true Sand Release is!"

Where the tornado passed, houses were uprooted and streets were torn into ravines. Cries and screams came from all directions as villagers struggled like ants in the sandstorm.

"Evacuation team, immediately guide civilians to safety! Combat team, follow me to hold off Shukaku, medical team, prepare to treat the wounded, sealing team, find an opportunity to seal him!" Shamon's voice resounded throughout the village through his chakra.

Dozens of Sand Village ninjas gathered from all directions, raining down kunai, explosive tags, and wind-style ninjutsu upon Shukaku, but they couldn't even scratch it. Shukaku didn't even bother to dodge, letting these "little insects" attack it.

It was originally a tailed beast with strong defensive capabilities, and being in the desert allowed it to unleash its full power.

"So annoying!" Shukaku swept its tail, sending five ninjas who couldn't dodge in time flying.

It took another deep breath, and its abdomen swelled up again. This time, it wasn't using the Tailed Beast Ball, but rather "Rapid Fire of Air Bullets!"

Seven or eight energy blasts imbued with the chakra of the tailed beasts flew in different directions, each causing massive damage. The Sand Village's proud defenses crumbled like paper before these attacks.

"Damn it, we can't let it run rampant any longer!"

"Sand Release - Sand Waterfall Burial!"

Shamon's roar was almost drowned out by the storm. He spread his arms wide, and chakra poured out like a flood. The sand within a hundred meters suddenly boiled, forming towering sand waves that rushed towards Shukaku, like the hand of a giant gripping Shukaku's massive body.

Shukaku's roar was deafening: "It's you again, you annoying ant!" It struggled, and every grain of sand fell with terrifying force, but Shamon controlled the sand waterfall to replenish the loss.

Shamon's forehead veins bulged, and his face gradually turned pale. He knew that his ninjutsu could only restrain Shukaku for a maximum of three minutes—and that was assuming Shukaku had just rebuilt its body and its power had not fully recovered.

"Sealing squad! Now's the time!" Shamen forced out the order through gritted teeth.

Dozens of sealing ninjas leaped out from all sides and quickly took their positions around Shukaku. The scrolls in their hands unfurled simultaneously, and complex jutsu appeared on the sand.

"Lord Kazekage, the container is ready!"

Shamon turned his head and saw two Jonin carrying a young monk rushing towards him. This was the same person who had been in the prison cell earlier.

"Fenfu, do you understand what you are about to bear?" Shamen asked sternly while maintaining the sandfall burial.

The young monk, Fenfu, clasped his hands together and said, "I understand. If I can use this body as a vessel to protect all living beings from suffering, it will be my merit."

Shamen noticed that his clasped hands were trembling slightly, but his eyes were unusually firm.

In the distance, Shukaku had already broken free from part of the sand waterfall's restraints.

"Begin the sealing!" Shamon ordered.

The sealing team immediately formed hand seals, and twelve beams of light shot out from the scroll, weaving in the air to form a birdcage-like barrier that enveloped Shukaku. Shukaku seemed to sense the danger and struggled even more frantically.
