The Mutant God in American Comics.

Unlike the standard attire of Konoha ninja which is dark long-sleeved trousers and green vest, the standard attire of Sand Village ninja, besides the different colors, has one very worrying feature, that is, most of the ninjas of Sand Village wear white headscarves.

Although this is the world of Naruto, the outfit of the Sand Village ninja still made Richard think of the words "I have a piece of cloth on my head, I am the richest person in the world."

Of course, the Sand Village in this world is far from being the richest in the world.

Richard used his super vision to observe the Sand Village calmly.

Kakashi, Gai and others sat on the bench in silence, recovering their consumed chakra and strength.

Unlike Richard, they marched quickly for three whole days.

Just a few minutes after Sakura started treating Kankuro, Temari, the eldest daughter of the Fourth Kazekage and Kankuro's sister, Gaara, came outside the medical room and saw Richard and his group sitting in the corridor.

After learning that Richard and his group, as Konoha's reinforcements, had arrived at the Sand Village, she rushed over as soon as possible while she was resting at home.

In the original work, when Gaara was captured, she had just left Konoha not long ago.

It was only after she met Kakashi and his group that she learned about Gaara's capture.

And here, she has been staying in the Sand Village and has not gone to Konoha.

Not only that, she also fought with Uchiha Obito who was disguised as "Afei".

As for the result, it goes without saying.

Even if Obito disguised himself as the funny and unreliable Afei, Temari was no match for Obito.

Even though she used all her strength, she still couldn't cause any harm to Obito.

After seeing Richard and the others, Temari first came to Chiyo and Ebizo and bowed to them.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that Chiyo and Ebizo look frail and may die at any time.

When they were young, they were very important figures in the Sand Village.

It's a joke.

Even if the Fourth Kazekage was still alive, he would have to greet Chiyo and Ebizo respectfully.

After greeting Chiyo and Ebizo, Temari came to Richard with a serious look and said to him: "I will go with you to rescue Gaara."

"He is not only the Kazekage of the Sand Village, but also my younger brother. I must rescue him."

To be fair, Temari is not bad looking and has a good figure.

If there is any problem, it is that her hairstyle affects her appearance.

If she could change her hairstyle, she would definitely be more attractive.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm not the one leading the team this time."

Richard replied casually.

what?

After hearing his answer, Temari, Chiyo, and Ebizo all showed surprised expressions.

Because Richard has become too famous in the past three years, and he has proved his strength with impeccable record.

So when they saw him coming to the Sand Village with Kakashi and the others, their first reaction was that Richard was the captain of the rescue team.

"I am not a ninja of Konoha, and I am not qualified to command the ninjas of Konoha."

"If you want to rescue Gaara together, the people you need to ask are not me, but Kakashi and Gai."

Richard said, pointing at Kakashi and Gai.

As soon as he finished speaking, Kakashi's voice rang out.

"The more people who participate in the rescue, the higher the chances of saving the Fifth Kazekage."

"If you don't mind, come with us."

Kakashi said quickly.

Judging from the number of people, Class 7 is now only missing one person.

But in fact, the current Class 7 is not as simple as missing one person.

Although Sai is quite strong and is much stronger than Naruto and Sasuke three years ago, he has not yet integrated well into Team 7.

In other words, Sai was not happy about joining Team 7.

The reason he joined Team 7 was purely because Richard killed Danzo and was then forcibly assigned to Team 7 by Tsunade.

Although Tsunade is the Hokage, he is affiliated with the Root organization and has been instilled with many bad ideas by Danzo.

For example, the Hokage may also endanger the village, and the Hokage's orders do not necessarily need to be obeyed completely, etc.

Not only Sai, many members of the Root organization have similar problems.

On the surface, they were loyal to the Hokage.

But in reality, their loyalty is not to the Hokage, but to Danzo.

Kakashi was also somewhat dissatisfied at the beginning about Tsunade assigning Sai to Team 7.

But after asking Tsunade, Kakashi accepted Tsunade's arrangement.

Tsunade arranged Sai into Team 7 not just because Team 7 was missing one person.

If she just wanted to recruit more people to Team 7, she could just randomly assign someone to join Team 7.

The reason she did this was that she hoped Kakashi could guide Sai, who was "fooled" by Danzo, back on the right track.

Kakashi is very strong and has extensive experience in coaching.

More importantly, when he was young, there were days when his heart was completely taken over by darkness.

Among Konoha's current elite jonin, Kakashi and Sai have more similar life experiences, so it would be better to have him guide Sai than others.

Although this was Tsunade's plan, and Kakashi also tried hard to guide Sai.

But until now, he still hasn't been able to fully integrate Sai into Team 7.

Nothing else to say.

Take speaking, for example.

After joining Team 7, Sai has spoken on his own initiative only a few times.

Even if Kakashi and Sakura took the initiative to talk to him, he would only give simple answers.

For example, okay, yes, no, don’t, etc.

After hearing Kakashi's answer, Temari first thanked Kakashi.

Then, he continued, "Is Richard also on our team?"

"No, he's not. He's on a one-man team."

Kakashi replied quickly.

Temari turned her head and looked at Richard, without saying anything else, she found an empty seat and sat down.

Time passes little by little.

More than half an hour later, Sakura finally channeled all the poison out of Kankuro's heart and pulled Kankuro back from the brink of death.

Although Kankuro will not be able to fully recover in a short time, at least there is no need to worry about him dying from the scorpion's poison.

Kankuro, who had just woken up, immediately provided a very useful clue.

A piece of clothing from a scorpion!

Although both are puppeteers, Kankuro is much inferior to Sasori.

Fortunately, Scorpion did not kill him on the spot, but fought with him with the intention of teasing his junior, which gave him the opportunity to secretly cut off the scraps of cloth from Scorpion's clothes.

Otherwise, with Scorpion's strength, no matter how hard Kankuro tried, he would not be able to get the controlled puppet close to him.

With the scraps of clothes provided by Kankuro, Kakashi immediately performed summoning techniques and summoned his own summoning beast "Hachinin Dog".

Siba, Bisk, Aquino, Guluk, Wuhei, Ulusi, Blue, Parker!

In terms of strength, Kakashi's eight ninja dogs are not that strong.

But his ninja dogs are no worse than those trained by the Inuzuka clan.

Although his ninja dog cannot perform anthropomorphic ninjutsu like the ninja dogs of the Inuzuka clan, his ninja dog also has its own advantages.

In addition, all of Kakashi's eight ninja dogs are, without exception, rare breeds.

After summoning the Eight Ninja Dogs, Kakashi immediately gave them the task of searching for the target based on the smell on the pieces of clothing.

Within seconds, the Eight Ninja Dogs left the medical room and began searching for Scorpion's whereabouts.

Half a day later.

Kakashi's Eight Ninja Dogs, or to be more precise, Puck among the Eight Ninja Dogs lived up to everyone's expectations and successfully found the whereabouts of Sasori and the secret base of the Akatsuki organization. He returned to the Sand Village and told Kakashi about his discovery.

Just as Richard expected, after kidnapping Gaara, Deidara, Sasori, and Obito took Gaara to the Akatsuki organization's secret base in River Country.

Although Parker did not enter the sealed secret base, it is obvious that the people from Akatsuki, under the guidance of Nagato, are using the Sealing Technique: Phantom Dragon Nine Sealings to extract the One Tail from Gaara's body and seal it into the Outer Path Statue.

……

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 203 Tsukuyomi

After awakening the Rinnegan, Richard mastered all the other Rinnegan ninjutsu except for the unique eye techniques such as the Sky Hand Power and the Wheel Grave and Prison Edge.

Among them was the Sealing Technique - Phantom Dragon Nine Seals.

Although he knew this ninjutsu, he had never used it.

As for the reason, it's simple.

Because the Phantom Dragon Nine Sealings requires the gathering of other ninjas to activate the special effect of the Outer Path Statue and seal the tailed beast in the body of the Jinchūriki into the Outer Path Statue.

Richard was alone, so even if he mastered this ninjutsu, he couldn't use it.

When Parker brought back the information about Scorpion in River Country, Richard and his team set off.

In order to rescue Gaara and see her grandson, Chiyo set out with them, just like in the original story.

Kakashi, Kai and others welcomed Chiyo's joining.

Although they had never fought with Chiyo, they had heard of her name and knew that she was once the strongest puppeteer in the Sand Village.

Although the puppeteer's control ability will decline due to age.

But compared to ninjas who need to fight at close range, puppeteers are much less affected.

Not only that, as a puppeteer grows older, his experience will become richer.

In other words, older puppeteers are likely to be more problematic than younger ones.

Chiyo and Kankuro are two good examples.

Like Temari, Chiyo temporarily joined Team 7 and worked with Kakashi, Sai, and Sakura.

As for Richard, he is still single and acts alone.

After leaving the Sand Village, they headed straight to the Akatsuki base discovered by Parker.

Because Gaara had been captured for three days, except for Richard, Kakashi and the others increased their travel speed to the maximum.

Just as they were heading towards the secret base of Akatsuki, the sealing of the One-Tail had reached its final stage.

The Kingdom of Rivers is located between the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Fire, and is less than half a day's journey from the Sand Village.

Unlike Kakashi and others who were already on high alert, Richard who was flying in the air still had a calm expression on his face.

Even if he didn't take action, with the strength of Kakashi and Guy, they could defeat Sasori and Deidara.

Although Sasori and Deidara are both powerful S-class ninjas, he is not very interested in either of them.

There is only one person he cares about now, and that is Obito who is disguised as Afei.

In the original work, Obito did not participate in the capture of the One-Tail, nor did he fight with Kakashi and others when they rescued Gaara.

And now, Obito not only participated in the capture of the One-Tail, but also had a high probability of fighting with Kakashi and the others.

If there were no other unexpected events, Obito would also be in the secret base in River Country.
