Naruto: I, who fooled the ninja world, was hailed as a savior.

Chapter 232 Child, go, kill them all!

"Get out! Get out of here!"

Shukaku, inside Gaara, let out a terrified roar.

However, this was accompanied by a chilling tearing sound.

The purplish-black tongue and palm pulled without mercy, forcefully and slowly extracting the scarlet chakra, which exuded a violent aura, from Gaara's abdomen.

Seeing this, Miyajo En opened the lid of the black tea cauldron, and a powerful sealing force erupted from it, absorbing the violently struggling Shukaku chakra into it.

boom!
Shukaku's chakra was powerless to resist and was forcibly absorbed into the dark tea cauldron. The lid slammed shut, and the sealing runes on the surface of the cauldron shimmered with light.

Pain, the Hell Path, expressionlessly released Gaara from his grasp.

Pfft!
Gaara crashed heavily onto the cold, hard ground, his face ashen, his breath weak, and his eyes gradually losing their luster and vitality.

The excruciating pain swept over his entire body like a tsunami, but deeper still, there was the emptiness and coldness left behind after his chakra had been forcibly torn apart.

Pain, the Hell Path, didn't even glance at Gaara lying on the ground like a rag doll. He slowly turned around and nodded slightly to Miyajo En.

A playful, irreverent smile played on Miyajo En's lips. With a casual wave of his hand, the luminous black tea cauldron shrank and fell into his palm, where he casually slipped it into his pocket.

The two walked one after the other, as if they had just completed a trivial task, and silently turned around and walked towards the prison entrance.

Step...step...step...

The footsteps faded away slowly, and a deathly silence descended once more.

Gaara lay on the cold ground, his body convulsing from the excruciating pain and hypothermia. His empty eyes, gradually losing their color, stared blankly at their retreating figures.

why?
This thought once again pierced his chaotic mind with clarity and sharpness.

This is not what Shukaku wanted.

None of this was what he wanted.

It wasn't Shukaku's fault, nor was it my fault.

I just want to live, to live like a human being.

But why?
Why have I had to bear the stigma of being a "monster" since birth?

Why do people always look at me with disgust and fear, as if they're looking at some filthy, terrifying monster?!
Why could my father be so cruel as to use me as a weapon, and then imprison me in this place, which is worse than death, like throwing away trash?!
Why, why must they take away even my last remaining life? Why must they utterly crush even the last vestige of my existence?

hatred!
A long-dormant, almost numb hatred seemed to burst forth from the hollow in his abdomen!

hatred!
He hated the Sand Village ninjas who saw him as a monster, hated their every disgusted look, and hated their indifference and cruelty in imprisoning him here!

hatred!
I hate that father even more! Rasa!

She hated him for giving her life but never giving her a shred of warmth; she hated him for treating her like a tool, to be used and discarded; she hated him for turning her into a monster with his own hands!

kill!

Kill them!
Kill all those you hate!
Kill the guy who abandoned me!!

boom! !

The overwhelming hatred, like a flood bursting its banks, instantly swept away all numbness and despair!
A cold, violent aura surged wildly from the huge hole in Gaara's abdomen!

Above the prison, the souls of the Sand Village ninjas killed by Pain were also drawn in and forcibly absorbed into his body.

A surge of resentment, fear, and anger assaulted his battered body; black earthworms seemed to bulge and writhe beneath his skin, and his bones creaked under the strain.
But, just a little bit more, just a little bit more…

hum! !

A gentle, pure blue light flowed from the gourd behind him!

The light slowly coalesced, outlining a slender, hazy female silhouette with an indistinct face.

She reached out her arms and lovingly embraced the small figure on the ground, which was trembling violently from pain and resentment.

"Go, child."

That gentle yet chilling voice echoed deep within Gaara's soul: "Kill them."

She is Gaara's mother, Karura!
The blue phantom of a soul slowly merged into his body.

"Uhhhhh!!"

Gaara let out a scream that was not human, his body twisted and swelled violently, and his skin cracked inch by inch, revealing the writhing flesh underneath!
Click! Click! Click!

A pale, cold bone mask grew out of his flesh and blood, instantly covering his entire face!
Two crimson lights shone from the empty eye sockets on the mask!
A terrifying aura filled with resentment and destructive desire erupted from his body, instantly tearing and shattering the entire prison from the inside by this violent force!
boom! !

At the same time, the three figures of Miyajo En, Deva Path Pain, and Hell Path Pain had almost left Sunagakure.

But the next moment, sensing the powerful aura coming from behind them, the three of them stopped in their tracks.

The carefree smile on Miyajo En's face froze instantly. He slowly turned around, and for the first time, a hint of seriousness and surprise appeared in his eyes.

He saw it.

The towering sandstorm, like a giant curtain connecting heaven and earth, roared and tumbled, sweeping wildly in, engulfing Sunagakure, swallowing the sky, and blocking out the sun!
The entire world was dyed a suffocating, dim yellow!

"Heh." Miyajo En let out a low chuckle that was hard to decipher, but there was no trace of ease in that chuckle; instead, it carried an undisguised seriousness.

“Boss.” He looked at Payne, licked his lips, and chuckled, “Looks like we’ve accidentally released something extraordinary?”

"Hmph, that 'Shadow' guy really knows how to cause trouble..."

Looking at the sandstorm sweeping in from afar, Pain snorted and raised his hand.

However, after a moment, he slowly lowered his hand.

"Boss?" Miyajo En raised an eyebrow.

"Let's go to Konoha first. We don't have time to waste on it," Pain said coldly. "It seems that next time we kill someone, we'll have to extract their soul."

As soon as he finished speaking, he and Pain of the Hell Path disappeared from the spot.

"Hopefully, when the Fourth Kazekage returns and sees this scene, he won't be too surprised."

Miyajo En shrugged and said mockingly before disappearing before the sandstorm could crash down on him. Boom!

The surging sea of ​​sand crashed against the ground like ocean waves, causing the earth to tremble violently. Countless houses collapsed in the raging sandstorm, and terrified screams were drowned out by the roar!

------

The location of Takigakure Village is hidden behind a huge waterfall.

The waterfall is the most iconic feature of Takigakure Village and also its natural defensive barrier, covering the entire village.

From the outside, it is almost impossible to detect that there is a hidden world behind it. To enter the village, one must pass through the curtain of water from the waterfall. This design makes the village extremely difficult for outside forces to discover and invade.

Beyond the waterfall lies a vast valley, lush with vegetation and abundant water resources. The beautiful and self-sufficient environment is where Takigakure Village was established.

The village of Takigakure once harbored strong ambitions, even attempting to assassinate the First Hokage. However, after being severely injured by Kakuzu, they came to terms with reality and retreated into seclusion for a long time.

However, at this moment, this ninja village, hidden behind the waterfall like a paradise, has been completely turned into a living hell.

Boom! !
The dark clouds gathering above Takigakure Village churned and boiled, constantly unleashing bolts of lightning.

The sturdy building was blasted to pieces like fragile building blocks, with burning wood chips and charred fragments shooting in all directions. The pitiful screams of the Takigakure ninjas were drowned out by the roar!

"Roar!!"

A massive, monstrous dog rampaged through the burning streets, its body covered in a grayish-brown horn layer, and its thick limbs caused the ground to tremble with each stomp!
Its ferocious maw bared fangs and spewed out scorching flames!
Wherever it passed, houses collapsed and the ground cracked. The Takigakure ninjas who tried to stop it were easily knocked away and crushed, like mantises trying to stop a chariot.

"Wow!!"

The strange bird circled above the village, its feathers raining down like a dense rain of arrows, exploding upon landing with bursts of fire and deafening explosions.

The violent shockwave and scorching flames engulfed a large area, and the Takigakure ninjas who had no time to escape were reduced to ashes amidst their desperate cries.

"hiss!!"

Several two-headed giant snakes, their bodies twisting and turning, slowly moved forward through the burning ruins, their ferocious heads spewing out highly toxic purple mist.

What's even more despairing is that no matter how desperately the Takigakure ninjas attacked, and no matter how deep the wounds they left on it, those wounds would heal rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye!
"Maple! Come back, it's too dangerous! You haven't fully mastered the Seven-Tails' power yet!"

On the ground, a girl with short blue-green hair, dark skin, and orange eyes ignored the advice of the Takigakure ninja, raised her hands, formed hand seals, and flew into the sky.

"Secret Technique: Scale Powder Concealment Technique!"

She spat out countless fine scales that drifted towards the two-headed snakes, causing them to hiss, writhe on the ground, and become paralyzed.

"Tsk, finally forced it out."

Watching the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki 'Kaede' soar into the air with a pair of butterfly wings in the distance, Juzo Biwa, carrying the Executioner's Blade, stood on the monster bird's head and breathed a sigh of relief.

Given Feng's age and strength, which are less than ten years old, he can be subdued without much effort.

Thinking of this, he looked down at the Takigakure building below and frowned, "What on earth is Hiruko doing? Why hasn't he come out yet?"

At this very moment, in the secret underground archives room of the Takigakure building.

This place contains all the secret ninjutsu techniques and ancient documents collected by Takigakure since its founding; it is an absolutely forbidden area.

However, the Takigakure ninjas who should have been guarding this place were now lying haphazardly on the cold ground.

Their bodies were pierced and smashed, their faces frozen in fear and pain, blood gushing from their wounds, soaking the precious scrolls and yellowed ancient books scattered on the ground.

The cold, damp air was filled with a strong smell of blood and the musty smell of paper and scrolls.

The only light came from the flickering oil lamp on the wall, casting a distorted shadow between the towering bookshelves.

Wow!

A heavy scroll was violently torn from a high shelf and smashed into a pool of blood. Beiluhu, dressed in a black robe with red clouds, was quickly moving through the messy archives.

Wow! Wow! Wow!

Precious scrolls were carelessly discarded like trash, and yellowed ancient books were roughly torn apart and trampled on, showing him complete disregard for these things.

"Where? Where?"

Hiruko's lips moved, his voice low and urgent as he frantically searched through the mountain of scrolls.

He had searched through most of the archives, and countless scrolls recording powerful ninjutsu slipped from his hands, but none of them were what he wanted, which made him increasingly irritable!
"Damn it! Is there really no backup?"

Hiruko cursed under his breath and slammed the scroll in his hand to the ground.

However, in the instant he looked down, his peripheral vision caught sight of an extremely hidden corner at the very bottom of the bookshelf.

There lay an inconspicuous, flat box, its surface covered in dust and almost blending into the shadows.

Hiruko narrowed his eyes, used "Swift Escape" to appear in front of the box, picked it up, brushed off the thick dust on the box, and opened it.

pat!

The box was gently opened, and inside lay a scroll.

"found it!"

As he unfurled the scroll, Hiruko's breathing instantly became heavy, his voice filled with suppressed ecstasy and trembling: "Secret Technique: Earth Grudge Fear!"

However, after seeing the contents of the scroll, his brows furrowed subconsciously.

"Do we need to cultivate those black thread-like organisms and then transplant them into our bodies?"

Hiruko murmured, "No wonder the 'Earth Grudge Fear' was abandoned here. It seems that Takigakure no longer has those black lines."

Currently, the only person in the ninja world who possesses those "black lines" is Kakuzu, who has mastered "Earth Grudge Fear".

"We can't let Kakuzu know that I've obtained the Earth Grudge Fear," Hiruko said, his eyes flashing. "There's only one way then."

We must find a way to obtain some live "black lines" from him without his knowledge.

Hiruko was very curious about what kind of strange creature could be created by combining "Earth Grudge" with his own "Demon Sparrow".
