Double-transformation: I, Sakura Haruno! Will crush the pirates!

"Oh no, time's almost up!" Obito's expression changed as he felt his eyes stinging.

He had been using spatial magic to protect himself, and finally the duration of his divine power etherealization reached its limit.

click!

The sound of the spell breaking, audible only to Obito, rang out, and a blood-red storm instantly enveloped him.

The remaining flames poured down from the sky, fiercely burning his spirit.

In his last moments before his consciousness faded, he saw the figure of the Desolate God standing amidst the blood-red storm, and couldn't help but curse him in his heart.

—Uchiha Itachi, you guys, stop fighting!

Chapter 255 Even withered, not decayed

In the original mountain range that had been completely eroded into a basin, a raised mound of earth was crushed.

Sakura and Chiyo brushed the dust off themselves and stepped out of the shadows.

"what's the situation?"

Looking at the scorched earth around her, Chiyo couldn't help but gape in astonishment, "What...what happened here?"

"It only destroyed a mountain range, it's a minor problem!"

Sakura's pupils flashed with rainbow light as her Observation Haki expanded, allowing her to perceive her surroundings.

"No wonder your Land of Fire has so many plains and basins," Chiyo muttered under her breath after hearing Sakura's words.

It has to be said that the ninjas of Konoha are truly remarkable, able to treat something as trivial as moving mountains and filling seas.

So what kind of lives do you guys usually lead? Meteor showers every three days, Gundam fighting monsters every five days?

If that's the case, then suddenly the sand of the Land of Wind doesn't seem so hard to accept.

In the distance, among the Akatsuki members who were directly hit by the bombing.

Having completely transformed himself into a puppet, Scorpion opened his eyes and trembled as he got up.

"A ninjutsu that directly attacks the mind, no wonder I fainted..."

Sasori felt immense pressure as his gaze swept over the unconscious Deidara and 'Madara' beside him.

Why don't we just leave these two here? We've already completed the task Payne assigned us.

"scorpion!"

An ancient roar echoed as more than a dozen kunai, strung together with chakra threads, shot out.

Although the chakra attached to them was barely perceptible, Sasori, a genius puppeteer, still spotted them at a glance.

With a casual flick of his wrist, the remains of Hiruko flew up and deflected the kunai one by one.

"I never expected that you would be the biggest hindrance, Grandma Chiyo!"

Scorpion raised his hand and ripped off the cloth covering his face, revealing a face that hadn't changed in decades.

At the same time, Hiruko's shattered head flew into the sky and sprayed a large amount of poisonous senbon at the two of them.

“You…” Chiyo was dumbfounded.

The body's functions, already declining due to aging, are further affected by the youthful appearance of the grandson.

Shock caused him to react slowly, and he was slashed several times by the rapidly piercing senbon.

"Hey, old woman!"

Sakura throws out a Flying Thunder God kunai, and with a time jump, she escapes Senbon's attack range with Chiyo.

"Tch, a space-time ninjutsu user?"

Scorpion became serious and reached under his robe to pull out a scroll.

After the seal was broken, a cloud of white smoke exploded, and a robed puppet floating in mid-air embraced his body.

"That's... the Third Hokage!!!"

Having adapted to the rapidly changing environment, Chiyo's gaze was fixed on the puppet, her eyes fixed straight ahead.

Although Sakura treated the poison in her body, it greatly depleted her chakra and stamina.

"Ah, this is my greatest masterpiece!"

Scorpion's fingers twisted, and the Wind Shadow Puppet mechanically turned its head. "I went to great lengths to preserve its internal organs so that the bloodline effect could be maximized."

"How pathetic! You've already joined the evil party, and that's bad enough!" Two tears streamed down Chiyo's face. "You've even abandoned the basic principles of being human?"

"Stop lecturing me! Aren't you the one who's teaching me all this?"

With a ferocious expression, Sasori yanked on the chakra thread in his hand, and the Third Kazekage's puppet immediately extended its venomous claws.

"asshole..."

Sakura clenched her fists, her Armament Haki swirling around her.

"Lady Sakura!"

Chiyo, who had been staggering, regained her balance, grabbed Sakura's hand, and a scroll that had slipped out of her sleeve unfurled, releasing two puppets.

In his youth, he devoted himself entirely to the village's cause; in middle age, he lost his son and daughter-in-law; in old age, his grandson ran away; and now he suggests sealing the One-Tailed Beast within a young child...

She struggled her whole life, only to end up doing nothing but mistakes. The village she built with her blood and sweat has now fallen into such a state of decline, which is probably God's punishment for her!

However, before this mutilated body is completely burned away, the matter of atonement will absolutely not be entrusted to the ninja of my former mortal enemy!

He would even risk his life to fight his own grandson, all for the greater good!

"That's it, I understand!"

Sakura loosened her fist when her gaze met those resolute eyes. "Looks like you haven't burned to ashes yet, Chiyo!"

"Hehehe, of course!"

The old voice answered in a playful tone, and with a flick of the chakra threads on his arm, the puppet father and mother he had once made for his grandson rushed out.

Sasori shook the puppet of the Third Kazekage, its right arm opening to reveal a dense array of storage runes.

Immediately, one puppet's arm after another was released, eventually forming a torrent of arms that grabbed at the two of them.

"Such a technique is a thousand years too early to defeat me!"

As Chiyo finished speaking, a steel wire was pulled between the two puppets, which then wrapped around and slashed the puppet tentacles.

Realizing that things were not going to work, Sasori decisively changed his strategy, having the Kazekage puppet extend a spinning saw in an attempt to directly cripple Chiyo's puppet.

However, Chiyo was ultimately more skilled and decisively had the two puppets break the rotary saw used to dismantle the puppet, even at the cost of their weapons being destroyed.

The last three puppets separated, leaving behind a pile of iron scraps and metal fragments.

"As expected of Grandma, it seems like that's the only option..."

Sasori formed hand seals, channeling chakra into the Third Kazekage puppet, from which black fluid gushed forth.

In the next instant, countless iron sands swept across the land like a tidal wave, tearing the earth apart layer by layer and forming a deep depression.

Within the charred depression, heavy iron spikes were rapidly rising.

"This is... the Third Hokage's Magnet Release!"

Chiyo pulled with both hands, the chakra threads taut, pulling the puppet back in front of her and opening the Puppet Technique: Machine Light Shield.

"Hmph, you're getting senile, Granny Chiyo!" Sasori slowly raised his head and grinned.

From the surging torrent, fine iron sand transformed into hundreds of hard bindings, penetrating into every joint of the Chiyo puppet and locking it in place.

Foreign objects mixed into the connecting shaft caused Chiyo's puppet to make strange noises when it moved, and eventually it collapsed to the ground, unable to move.

"This is the end!"

Scorpion extended his five fingers and clenched them tightly, and the puppet of the Third Kazekage controlled the iron sand to rise into the sky.

Immediately afterwards, the high-pitched sound of steel rubbing against each other resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

——Ninja Method·Sand Iron Boundary Method!

Sand clouds filled the sky, bursting forth with streaks of iron light that sprang, grew, and multiplied, weaving together into black iron spikes with barbs and patterns, which covered the earth like a volcanic eruption.

At the critical moment, Chiyo used puppetry to control her body, twisting and turning to avoid the falling spikes.

However, he was still accidentally scratched by the venom-soaked iron spikes and collapsed to the ground, completely exhausted.

Chiyo's body trembled as she barely managed to turn her head. "You bastard, you really did poison the iron sand after all!"

"That's not surprising, is it? You taught me all the techniques yourself!"

Sasori mechanically raised his hand, causing the Kazekage puppet to extend a sharp blade and rush towards Chiyo, while he mechanically turned his gaze to Sakura, "Konoha bastard, aren't you going to stop me?"

"I won't interfere in a battle where everyone is determined, but..."

The girl's emerald eyes flashed with a fierce light, and dark thunder roared faintly in the surrounding void, centered on her.

The earth groaned and trembled under the will of the overlord, and cracks spread out in layers.

A terrifying monster from another world, high above the ocean, ravaged matter and trampled on reason, unleashing a hurricane with its utterly irrational and violent aura.

"You should know what you're going to face!"

"Humph!"

Scorpion snorted coldly and withdrew his gaze.

Even if doing so would anger the guy in front of me, I need to reduce their fighting strength as much as possible right now.

After all, this is the world of ninjas, and killing enemies as much as possible is a matter of course.

"Wind Release·Vacuum Wave!"

Just as the Third Kazekage's puppet was about to sever Chiyo's head, she suddenly raised her head and spat out a huge wind blade from her mouth, slicing the puppet in half.

The thorny thicket, interwoven with iron sand, lost its chakra support in an instant and turned into dust, crashing down with a deafening roar.

"What! Why can it still move?"

The sudden turn of events caused a slight lapse in Scorpion's tense composure, and by the time he realized what was happening and tried to distance himself, he was already in a state of shock.

Chiyo had already leaped high into the air, and four puppet tentacles, which had been cut off from the Third Kazekage's body and were hidden in her sleeve, pierced out.

"That wretched old woman!"

As time seemed to freeze, Scorpion, unable to contain his rage at the destruction of his treasured possessions, roared out in fury.

Chiyo, who was in mid-air, threw away the syringe that Sakura had given her and suddenly swung the chakra threads from her five fingers downwards.

"Don't underestimate the elderly; even if their bodies wither, their hearts remain undying!"

Chakra burned fiercely, carrying the old man's determination, and he slashed down!

Chapter 256 What kind of world do you want to create?

“Hehehe, hahahahaha!”

Amidst the smoke and dust billowing from the collapsing iron sand, Scorpion, whose body was pierced by the scattered tentacles of the puppets, laughed loudly.

"really!"

Chiyo, who was less than five meters away from him, frowned and realized the truth beneath the robe.

He was about to pull the chakra threads in his hand to strangle his grandson who had fallen into evil ways.

shhhhhh!

A sharp sound, like a weasel running, rang out, and the tentacles of the puppet controlled by Chiyo were quickly severed.

Along with it, the black robe with red clouds that Scorpion was wearing was also shattered.

The puppet's body, hidden beneath, is revealed, with poisoned steel claws and a guillotine extending out.

"There aren't many people who can force me to fight with my own body, Grandma!"

With one foot planted on a rock, the scorpion's head drooped as if it had been severed, its two eyes mechanically rotating.

He formed hand seals to integrate the scroll on his back into his body, and two nozzles appeared in his palms, emitting a large amount of flames.
