Naruto: With maxed-out affection, I am invincible in the ninja world.

He looked at the dead end before him, a cliff with a river flowing below, its destination unknown.

Haneda glanced back at the four people following closely behind him.

Prior to this, he had already had several brief encounters with them.

"One day, I will kill you all."

Without hesitation, Haneda jumped off the cliff.

…………

At this moment, Sakumo is on the battlefield with Sasori and Kakuzu.

The three were locked in a fierce battle, with Sakumo at a significant disadvantage.

His right arm was wounded by Scorpion's hidden weapon, and corroded by the venom, he would surely die if the battle dragged on any longer.

Both Scorpion and Horn understood this, and their actions were tacitly in sync, relentlessly pressing forward and slowly chipping away at each other's flesh.

"Even heroes grow old eventually," Kakuzu remarked, looking at Sakumo, who was panting and clutching a short sword.

"It's time to end this, you murderers who killed my parents." Scorpion's indifferent voice echoed through the rainforest.

Images of himself squatting at the door of his house, waiting for his parents to return, flashed before his eyes.

The final image freezes on the moment when he hears the news of his parents' deaths.

This was his hopeful childhood, and also his tragic childhood.

And today, all misfortune will come to an end.

Scorpion didn't know why he didn't feel the intense pleasure of impending revenge; instead, he felt indifferent.

Perhaps it was because he was moved by Haneda and Sakumo's act of covering their retreat, or perhaps it was because his parents would never come back...

rustling...

A series of footsteps approached from afar. As if sensing something, the scorpion quickly retreated as if fleeing.

Chapter 090 The Rain Country Becomes Increasingly Lively

Kakuzu, still watching Sakumo, turned angrily to Sasori, who had suddenly left, and loudly questioned:

"What are you doing?!"

"Now that things have come to this, you can handle it all by yourself."

Sasori's indifferent voice reached Kakuzu's ears.

Just then, an old woman appeared on the battlefield.

She heard a familiar voice and looked into the depths of the rainforest, but all she could see was familiar red hair.

"scorpion!!"

The scorpion did not turn back.

Neither his lingering emotions nor his rationality could allow him to face his grandmother, Chiyo.

At this moment, the Sand Village ninjas completely surrounded the area.

Kakuzu was hesitating about whether or not to leave.

If Sakumo's body were obtained by the Sunagakure people, he might not be able to get the head worth 500 million.

This was a number that drove him crazy.

"Sakumo Hatake, it was you!"

Chiyo saw the familiar silver-white hair that she had been thinking about day and night, and she knew why Sasori was here.

Thinking of her grandson and son, Chiyo couldn't help but tear open the sealed scroll.

Ten white figures appeared in front of her.

They are the Chikamatsu Ten!

The ten puppets were created by the puppeteer master, Saemon. Each puppet has its own unique weapon, ninja tools, and attack method.

In his current state, Sakumo is simply incapable of fighting.

Moreover, there was Kakuzu standing right next to him, watching him intently!

"I hope Haneda can escape successfully..."

Shuo Mao's eyelids drooped slightly; the venom prepared by the scorpion was already spreading throughout his body.

His breathing became heavy, and a feeling of exhaustion overwhelmed his brain.

But at that moment, a familiar cold voice rang in his ears.

"Shuo Mao, it's rare to see you in such a sorry state."

Orochimaru appeared before Sakumo.

At the same time, Guy, Mitarashi Anko, Genma Shiranui, and others also appeared here.

“Uncle Shuo Mao.” Kai stepped forward and helped Shuo Mao up.

At the same time, a medical ninja arrived and gave Sakumo a bottle of special medicine.

"Latent Shadow Snake Hand!"

Orochimaru's hand transformed into a giant snake, blocking the Chikamatsu Ten Guards.

He coldly reminded them, "If Sunagakure wants to start a war in the Land of Rain, then they should take another step forward."

What do you think, Hanzo?

No sooner had the words been spoken than another figure appeared at the scene of the standoff.

The newcomer was undoubtedly Hanzo, the leader of Amegakure.

"Amegakure has no intention of starting a war with Konoha, nor does it intend to offend Sunagakure."

"Please leave, gentlemen."

Hanzo planted his chain scythe in the ground and said.

Seeing Hanzo's polite threat and Orochimaru's mocking gaze, Chiyo could only swallow her anger.

Amegakure did not want its territory to become a battlefield, and Orochimaru's Konoha support forces had already arrived.

Now is not a good time to make a move.

"Alright, I'll leave with the Sand Village ninjas now," Chiyo said through gritted teeth.

She was a high-ranking figure in Sunagakure, not an ordinary ninja.

The village's interests took precedence over her personal feelings.

This reflects Chiyo's overall perspective.

Afterwards, the Sand Village people left, and Orochimaru glanced at Hanzo, seemingly lost in thought.

A few seconds later, he led the Konoha ninja away.

Kakuzu had already left quietly at some unknown time.

He deeply regretted not agreeing to Haneda's conditions earlier.

Three times the price, that's two hundred and four million taels!

pain!

It hurts so much! !

I'll definitely kill that black market boss when I get back; he just happens to be missing a heart.

…………

In the Blood Mist Village, a hidden basement.

Black Zetsu and White Zetsu emerged from underground and reported to Madara, who was seated high on the stone chair above:

"Lord Madara, when Sakumo Hatake was covering Haneda's retreat and was dying, Chiyo arrived, and Sasori suddenly left."

"When Chiyo attacked Sakumo, Orochimaru of Konoha and Hanzo of Amegakure arrived and Sakumo was saved."

As Madara listened to Black Zetsu's report, he rested his right arm on the armrest, his hand against his cheek, and chuckled dismissively:

"The plan failed."

Seeing that Madara's expression was off, Black Zetsu quickly added:

"Lord Madara, the plan to disguise yourself as a Root ninja and hunt down Haneda was a success."

"Currently, Haneda is unconscious in a river, being watched by White Zetsu, and is not in immediate danger."

Listening to Black Zetsu's report, Madara's hand remained on his cheek. After a few seconds, he looked up and said:

"They're lucky this time."

"Let White Zetsu send Haneda to Nagato's side and test his views on peace."
