Although Gaara was rescued by Naruto and Sasuke, this incident had a great impact on Yulong's heart.
It even made him feel doubtful about life.
Whether it's facing the Red Sand Scorpion or facing Deidara.
He and his subordinates failed to play any role from beginning to end.
Some sand ninjas were instantly killed by Deidara's explosive clay.
I didn't even have time to hum.
While he felt lucky, he also felt an unprecedented sense of disparity in his heart.
In order to ensure that the mission can be completed smoothly, in addition to being the elite jounin of Sunagakure Village, the worst others are also the jounin of Sunagakure Village.
result……
What these jonins can do is far inferior to the three genin brats in Konoha!
Doesn't this mean that the comprehensive strength of Konoha Village has far exceeded them?
"Although we are allies now, there are no permanent friends in this world..."
Looking at Naruto, Sasuke, and Xianglin in the sky, Youlong couldn't help but think to himself.
In the previous Ninja War, Sunagakure Village and Konohagakure Village were enemies of each other.
Even the parents of the Red Sand Scorpion died at the hands of the Konoha ninja, Hatake White Fang.
Yesterday we were enemies, today we are allies, but what about tomorrow?
"Perhaps Master Luo Sha is completely right to worry..."
You Long suddenly remembered.
When faced with the annual cuts in military funding by the daimyo of the Land of Wind, Rasa once regarded Konoha as an imaginary enemy.
I feel that if Sunagakure Village's military power continues to decline, sooner or later it will be cannibalized by Konoha.
Although the Daimyo of the Land of Wind did not think Konoha would have such ambitions.
This was rejected over and over again.
But after seeing the terrifying strength of Konoha's genin, Yulong began to worry.
What if Konoha really has that kind of ambition?
So with their current power, can they stop Konoha?
Gulu.
Thinking of this, You Long rolled his throat and swallowed nervously.
"team leader?"
Noticing Youlong standing there blankly, as if thinking about something, the Sand Ninja beside him couldn't help but raise his voice, bringing his thoughts back to the real world.
No matter what, Naruto, Sasuke and the others have no plans to come down and walk.
The forest terrain is complex and the direction is difficult to confirm.
It would be better to be directly in heaven.
Identify the direction at a glance.
And it’s unobstructed.
So, Naruto and Sasuke, one with the unconscious Deidara and the other with the unconscious Gaara, set out with Kaoru towards the location of Namikaze Minato.
"Follow them..."
After You Long was awakened by his subordinates, he suddenly realized that this mission was not over yet.
They had no other choice but to follow Team 7 of Konoha and return to the cave they had discovered before.
It's just different from Naruto and others...
In Yuryuu's mind, he was always worried about the outbreak of war between Konoha and Sunagakure Village.
Subconsciously, he regarded Naruto and the others as imaginary enemies.
There was an invisible pressure on his body.
But no matter what You Long thinks in his heart, it is not a matter of breaking up at the moment.
It took about seven or eight minutes.
The group returned to the original cave in two groups.
And when they returned here, the battle between Namikaze Minato and the Red Sand Scorpion had also come to an end.
The ruins were a mess.
As for Namikaze Minato, he made a new mask using existing materials to continue to cover his facial features.
Just when he was about to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to support Naruto and his party.
The figure that appeared in the sky just caught his attention.
Namikaze Minato stood among the ruins, looking at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle.
soon……
Naruto, Sasuke, and Xiang Rin began to dive downwards.
Returned to Namikaze Minato.
"Teacher Zero!"
Naruto raised the corner of his mouth and threw Deidara, who had passed out and had no fighting ability, in front of Namikaze Minato.
A proud look was written on his face.
It was as if he was showing off his achievements to Namikaze Minato.
"The enemy has been defeated by us."
Although Naruto specifically mentioned us when describing it, the expression on his face seemed to deliberately emphasize that he was the one who defeated Deidara.
Seeing this, Sasuke casually placed Gaara in the ruins.
Regardless, Gaara is the target of this operation.
Be more polite to him.
"We have also recovered the Jinchūriki of Sand Hidden Village."
Sasuke said lightly.
It seems to be stating a trivial matter.
But Sasuke knew it very well.
Whether it's the Red Sand Scorpion or Deidara.
But they are all S-class defector ninjas from the ninja world.
Especially the Red Sand Scorpion.
Assassinate the strongest Kazekage in history and make him a human puppet.
He is said to be an S-class defector ninja because the highest level is only S-class.
If we really discuss evil deeds and strength.
The Red Sand Scorpion is definitely a step above S-class defector ninjas like Deidara and Zabuza.
After passing through Sand Hidden Village, all the people became soldiers.
It was enough to see that the people randomly sent out were jounin.
And as a genin of Konoha.
Being able to perform such a mission, deal with such enemies, and complete the mission brilliantly.
Not only will he become famous in the village.
It is also equivalent to proving his strength to the people in the village.
There is nothing wrong with letting them break through and become Konoha's chuunin.
Thinking of this relationship, Sasuke felt equally happy and excited.
After a short time, You Long and his party hurriedly returned here.
But everyone was not only out of breath, but also big beads of sweat kept appearing on their foreheads and falling down.
"call……"
While breathing heavily, Yuryu walked to Namikaze Minato and looked at the mess around him.
"Where's the Red Sand Scorpion?"
After not seeing the body of the Red Sand Scorpion, Yulong couldn't help but ask Namikaze Minato.
There were also bad thoughts in my mind.
Could it be that the Red Sand Scorpion ran away?
"I've already taken care of him. That's the group." Namikaze Minato pointed in a certain direction.
In order to facilitate the recovery of the red sand scorpion in Sand Hidden Village.
He deliberately piled the parts of the Red Sand Scorpion together.
Including the regeneration core that has been severely damaged.
Hearing this, Yuryu and others also shook their heads and looked at the thing that Namikaze Minato identified as the Red Sand Scorpion.
But in their opinion, no matter how they looked at it, the thing didn't look like a human body.
It is completely a special material used to make dolls.
You Long couldn't help but frown.
Some people don't quite understand what Namikaze Minato means.
"What you see is the Red Sand Scorpion." Seeing that Yuryuu didn't understand, Namikaze Minato had no choice but to lead him closer to the mass, and then squatted down.
Tell him about the battle just now.
"The Red Sand Scorpion couldn't help but master the method of making human puppets. His thoughts became more radical and bold, and he even made himself into a human puppet."
"Only one regeneration core is retained to create chakra."
"I have to say that among the puppet masters I have come into contact with, the Red Sand Scorpion is not only the craziest one, but also..."
"The most genius one."
Namikaze Minato spoke slowly, feeling that the Red Sand Scorpion was not only a madman, but also a genius puppet master.
This is the art in his mouth, which is far from being accepted by people in this world.
"Turning myself into a puppet..." You Long's eyes suddenly widened in shock.
When he saw the Red Sand Scorpion before, he found it incredible...
Because in his impression, it had been ten years since the Scarlet Sand Scorpion defected to Sand Hidden Village.
He should be a middle-aged man in his thirties.
But when I saw him, I felt that the appearance of the Red Sand Scorpion was still in his teens.
I originally thought that the Red Sand Scorpion was just well-maintained.
Unexpectedly, he turned himself into a puppet.
And only then did You Long discover...
Inside the mass that Namikaze Minato identified as the Red Sand Scorpion, there was indeed something that looked like flesh and blood.
Among them, the red sand scorpion's head part also has a part of red hair left.
And the facial features that he could never forget.
It seems to be strong evidence that this thing is the Red Sand Scorpion.
At the same time, after hearing what Namikaze Minato said.
The expressions of everyone present were shocked.
"Made myself into a puppet..." Naruto's eyes were as wide as copper bells.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have imagined that there would be people in this world who were so cruel to him.
Sasuke looked at the red sand scorpion underground, and most of his joy in rescuing Gaara disappeared.
He just stared at the Crimson Sand Scorpion in a daze.
Of the two members of the Akatsuki organization he met, one was a guy who used clay bombs to wreak havoc.
The other is a madman obsessed with puppets, so obsessed that he turns himself into a puppet.
I really don’t know what kind of weirdos the other people in the Akatsuki organization are.
And his brother, Uchiha Itachi, hangs out with these guys all day long.
As for the Jonin of Sunagakure Village who followed You Long back here.
After seeing the Crimson Sand Scorpion who made him into a human puppet, he couldn't help but widen his eyes in shock, and his mouth subconsciously opened into an "oh" shape.
Unprecedented shock impacted their brains.
It was hard for them to imagine what method the Red Sand Scorpion used to dismantle his body bit by bit and then install a puppet mechanism.
Just thinking about it in their hearts makes them shudder.
This guy, the Red Sand Scorpion, is really ruthless.
However……
Such a cruel madman was defeated by Namikaze Minato.
For a moment, all the Sand Ninja, including Yuryuu, raised their heads and looked at Namikaze Minato.
Not only did his eyes become deeper.
"Speaking of which, the Red Sand Scorpion can be a powerful enemy that even the Kazekage-sama cannot defeat..."
You Long thought to himself.
He actually knew very well how strong the Red Sand Scorpion was.
Even without relying on poisonous needles, Kazekage Luosha would not be able to defeat the Red Sand Scorpion in such a short period of time.
He couldn't even confirm whether Kazekage Rasa could defeat the Red Sand Scorpion.
When he saw that Namikaze Minato was going to stay here to deal with the Red Sand Scorpion, Yulong felt that he was preparing to fight to the death with the Red Sand Scorpion.
Try your best to keep him here.
If you delay long enough.
Wait until the three monsters Naruto, Sasuke, and Xianglin come back, and then they will encircle and suppress the Red Sand Scorpion.
But now...
However, Namikaze Minato single-handedly defeated an enemy that even Rasa-sama found difficult to deal with.
And judging from Namikaze Minato's condition, his clothes were very neat.
Only the mask was destroyed.
Had to get a new one.
There were no obvious wounds on his body.
The performance was unusually calm.
If Namikaze Minato and the Red Sand Scorpion fought to the end, they would lie on the ground limply.
He wouldn't be so surprised.
But now, Namikaze Minato seems to be very relaxed!
This made You Long feel puzzled.
Who is this man in front of me?
Why can he defeat the Red Sand Scorpion so easily?
And how exaggerated is Konoha right now?
Naruto, Sasuke, and Xiang Rin could also use Zephyr's disciples to forcefully explain the past.
But this wave of feng shui...
You can't be a disciple of He Feng, right?
You shouldn't receive any special guidance from Zefeng, right?
Could it be that today's Jounin of Konoha have become as perverted as Minato Namikaze under the training of Zefeng?
Think again of your previous worries.
You Long couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart.
but……
Shocked. Shocked.
You Long's eyes quickly scanned the ruins.
Because long before the pursuit, I had obtained information from Kazekage Rasa.
Knowing that the Red Sand Scorpion not only killed the Third Kazekage.
He even made the Third Kazekage into a human puppet.
Although You Long was extremely disgusted with this behavior.
But what I have to admit is...
The human puppet of the Third Kazekage possesses considerable power.
As a ninja of Sunagakure Village, he should recycle it.
"Mr. Zero."
Yuryu took a deep breath, adjusted his emotions, and asked Namikaze Minato, "I wonder where the body of the Third Kazekage-sama used by the Red Sand Scorpion is?"
In order to let Namikaze Minato understand the meaning and significance of this human puppet.
You Long directly called it the remains.
Not a puppet.
In fact, Namikaze Minato had already expected Yuryu to be like this.
If the roles were reversed, he wouldn't want this human puppet to fall into the hands of other people in the Ninja Village.
Even if the other party is an ally with them.
but……
The Hokage's order given by Zefeng was also very clear.
I hope I can recycle the Third Kazekage's human puppet and the Red Sand Scorpion's hundreds of maneuvers.
Although Namikaze Minato looked harmless and his smile was as warm and bright as the sun, he was not an indecisive virgin in his heart.
For him, Konoha's interests are the most important.
What's more, he also hopes for peace in the ninja world.
It can be said that he quite agrees with the concept of Japanese style.
Based on this relationship, in order to prevent the puppets of the Third Kazekage from falling into the hands of Sunagakure Village.
Namikaze Minato deliberately tampered with the ruins here before the group returned.
No matter what, the Red Sand Scorpion is an excellent puppet master.
In addition to the Third Kazekage and Baiji Yan, he also has many human puppet scrolls on him.
Namikaze Minato summoned several appropriately, and then dismantled and destroyed them.
Let the fragments of the parts scatter into the cave.
Just waiting for You Long to ask about this...
It has to be said that Namikaze Minato is undoubtedly a very good ninja.
He can often think one step ahead of others and be ahead of others.
"Feel sorry……"
Namikaze Minato's tone was full of apology, "The body of the Third Kazekage-sama was severely damaged during my battle with the Red Sand Scorpion."
As he spoke, Namikaze Minato introduced the ruins he had arranged to Yuryuu.
It means that the remains scattered in the sand pit are the human puppet parts of the Third Kazekage.
"After all, you also know that the most special thing about puppets is that all parts of their bodies can be transformed into mechanisms..."
Namikaze Minato did not forget to emphasize this point.
In order not to be killed by the Red Sand Scorpion, he could only dismantle all the human puppets of the Third Kazekage.
The result is conceivable...
You Long never dreamed that the Third Kazekage's human puppet would be destroyed to this extent.
He quickly ran into the ruins, trying to dig out all the human puppet parts.
But after all, he is not the puppet master of Sand Hidden Village, nor is he proficient in this technology.
Holding a pile of parts that he didn't know which part they belonged to, Youlong couldn't tell whether they were puppets of the Third Kazekage or not.
Plus Minato Namikaze's acting is realistic.
All he felt in his heart was that Namikaze Minato was a waste of money.
Don't know how to cherish at all.
But Namikaze Minato also had something to say.
All of this is necessary to defeat the Red Sand Scorpion.
It's legitimate defense.
"That's what I said, but..."
Yuryū glanced back at Namikaze Minato.
My heart still seemed to be bleeding.
I couldn't accept the mess in front of me.
"However, the situation of those sand ninjas who are equivalent to the third-generation Kazekage-sama's human puppets is even less optimistic."
Namikaze Minato suddenly changed the topic and reminded Yuryu.
Not all the jounin of Sunagakure Village among the ruins were dead.
Some just passed out.
If we take them back now, maybe they can be saved.
certainly……
Namikaze Minato did not find any antidote on the Red Sand Scorpion.
It is speculated that the red sand scorpion just made poison and then smeared it into the hidden weapon.
Used to kill targets.
In addition, he is already a puppet and does not have the organs and tissues that humans should have.
Even if you stand in the poisonous gas, you will have no breathing channels and will be affected.
Naturally, no antidote is needed.
It has to be said that this is undoubtedly bad news for Youlong in Sand Hidden Village.
certainly……
After seeing Xiang Rin's ability to save people, You Long hoped to use her ability to save the ninjas of Sunagakure Village.
But this was directly rejected by Namikaze Minato.
Namikaze Minato heard a lot about Kaori's situation from Kazuya.
and was requested by Zephyr.
No one should treat Xianglin as a therapeutic tool.
otherwise……
Every time Xiang Lin takes action to treat someone, it will become "voluntary."
Can't tell at all.
Seeing that Namikaze Minato didn't agree to use Kaoru's ability to save the ninjas of Sunagakure Village, Yuryu had no choice.
After all, they had seen the abilities of Namikaze Minato and Konoha genin.
I don't even think about it, and I don't dare to be their enemy.
In addition, Gaara has been rescued and he needs to report this to the village.
After some thought, Youlong left two jounin who were still in good health and asked them to stay here.
He used the shadow clone technique to create several physical clones.
Then he carried the unconscious Suna Ninja and Gaara on his back.
Finally, he took them back to Sand Hidden Village.
Naturally, Namikaze Minato and Team 7 will not stay here.
They all also followed You Long’s footsteps.
Triumphant return.
It's just that the state of mind between the two parties is completely different.
Moreover, they did not notice...
In the corner of the ruins of the cave, a half-white head merged with the ground, emerging from the earth as if emerging from the water.
A pair of golden pupils were observing secretly.
It was Bai Zetsu who used the Mayfly Technique.
In this state, they are able to blend seamlessly with nature.
Ordinary perception ability cannot detect their existence at all.
It is precisely with this ability that this White Zetsu not only witnessed the entire battle between Namikaze Minato and the Red Sand Scorpion.
I even heard the conversation between them.
"I didn't expect that the Crimson Sand Scorpion and Deidara were also killed."
Although he has long known that Zero is Namikaze Minato, and Namikaze Minato is Zero.
But the Red Sand Scorpion ranks among the top in strength in the entire Akatsuki organization.
He also has the Third Kazekage who can use sand and iron.
It is no exaggeration to say that the Red Sand Scorpion is also a strong man with shadow-level strength.
Even if he loses to Namikaze Minato.
It's better to at least escape unscathed.
result……
"This kind of news cannot be said to be good news."
Bai Zetsu thought this in his heart, and then activated the Mayfly Technique again, left here, and went to the gap between hell, preparing to tell Obito the news of the sacrifice of the Red Sand Scorpion and Deidara.
at the same time……
After discovering that the Konoha ninjas had tracked them to the cave where they had sealed the tailed beasts, Nagato released the Phantom Body Jutsu and left there with the Heretic Golem and part of the One-Tailed Chakra.
But he has been observing the situation of the Red Sand Scorpion and Deidara.
When he discovered that the chakra of the Red Sand Scorpion had completely disappeared like Kakuzu.
His face couldn't help but become a little ugly.
"What's wrong, Nagato..."
Xiaonan's body was guarding Nagato at the moment. After she noticed that Nagato's face turned gloomy, she suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
She asked Nagato cautiously, but she didn't want to hear the news of losing her companion.
However, the fact is a foregone conclusion.
Nagato could only say unwillingly: "The chakra of the Red Sand Scorpion has disappeared..."
"He was killed by Konoha's ninja just like Kakuzu."
When he said these words, Nagato's voice was slightly trembling.
In order to bring together the defecting ninjas scattered around the world.
He spent a lot of time.
But now, there are already dead people who have been dealt with by Konoha.
Although Deidara's chakra still existed, it had become quite weak.
And couldn't be contacted.
He was probably defeated by the Konoha ninja and fell into the opponent's hands.
"Japanese wind..."
Nagato's Samsara Eye couldn't help but become a little darker.
In order for this world to usher in true peace, the power of the tailed beasts is essential.
However, he never imagined that the process of collecting tailed beasts would encounter such great resistance.
There are not many elite members in the Akatsuki organization.
The two times he had to deal with Ze Feng directly cost him four.
Zefeng, the Hokage, is really scary.
