"Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, is skilled in ninjutsu, hand seals, and sealing techniques."

"It seems their relationship with the other tailed beasts isn't very good..."

How does this person know so much?

Shukaku was taken aback, his surprise growing even stronger.

And that feeling that made it uneasy yet inexplicably familiar seemed to have intensified at this moment.

It was as if, given just a little more clue, it would immediately recognize who the person in front of it was.

His mind raced, but his hands didn't falter, trying to grab the leisurely figure in the sky.

“You can call me Qing,” Qing said calmly. “I’m the one responsible for locking you beasts back into the tree cages.”

Tree cage...

A familiar scent...

Ten-tailed Fox? Divine Tree?!

A thunderous thought suddenly flashed through Shukaku's mind.

However, before it could fully comprehend it, the purple streak of light vanished from its spot.

"boom!!"

When it reappeared, it had already kicked Shukaku hard in the stomach.

It was so fast that even it couldn't react in time.

The continuous sound of blows exploded around Shukaku like rain.

Bang bang bang bang bang! ! ! !

Left kick, right strike, upper elbow, lower kick.

One second he was at the edge of Shukaku's right claw, the next he was instantly flashed to the abdomen, and then he appeared behind, to the side of the waist, to the shoulder...

It has no pattern or method whatsoever.

Relying entirely on pure and extreme physical techniques, he launched a near-crushing attack on Shukaku!

Muffled thuds emanated from all parts of Shukaku's body, like countless mosquitoes carrying the power of heavy artillery, flying and ravaging around it, yet it could not catch them no matter what it did.

The more Shouhe fought, the more agitated and frustrated he became.

"Damn it!"

It roared and swung its claws, whipping out sand like a lash, attempting to smash that annoying figure to pieces.

But just as its claws landed, Hinata Seiran's figure flashed behind it.

The next moment, Shukaku took another solid blow to the back.

"I'm furious!"

Shukaku was utterly enraged. Its massive sand body suddenly soared into the air, forcefully shaking off the figure that was like a leech.

"Whatever your true intentions, now that you're here, you might as well die!"

The forces of Yin and Yang rotated and compressed, condensing into a small purple sphere radiating terrifying pressure.

Tailed Beast Ball!

It intends to use this strike to directly decide the outcome, to determine life and death!

Meanwhile, in Sunagakure, in the Kazekage's office.

Luo Sha was sitting behind his desk, looking down at the financial statements for the first quarter, which were full of deficits. He was completely overwhelmed.

The economic situation in Sunagakure was worse than he had anticipated.

Prolonged warfare, trade restrictions, and resource scarcity have left the village's finances strained almost every year.

If a solution to this impasse cannot be found soon, the future of Sunagakure will only become more and more difficult.

He rubbed his temples, then turned to the outside and asked:

"Sand Owl, how's it going? Has the Konoha delegation made any moves?"

"Reporting to Lord Kazekage, the advance delegation from Konoha was very well-behaved. Apart from that glutton from the Akimichi family, the other members of the Hyuga, Uchiha, and Yamanaka clans were all very cooperative and did not exhibit any unusual behavior."

"The Akimichi family's gluttons..."

Rasa sneered upon hearing this, "Since he likes to eat so much, let him eat more of our Sunagakure's local specialties."

"It's just a little food; the village can afford it."

He stood up, walked to the window, and looked in the direction of Konoha.

The night was deep, and the distant horizon was sharply defined by the cold desert wind.

After a moment of silence, as if suddenly remembering something, he turned and asked:

When will Mitokado Homura and Nara Shikaku arrive?

"Reporting to Lord Kazekage, according to the letter from Konoha, they should arrive in two days."

"They'll probably depart tonight."

Can we arrive within two days?

Luo Sha pondered for a moment, then made a decision: "Continue to monitor the Konoha delegation tonight, and have them come to see me first thing tomorrow morning."

"Yes!"

Sand Owl nodded and sank into the darkness.

Luo Sha rubbed his eyes, trying to clear his mind.

Konoha actually sent two delegations.

It seems that Mitokado Homura was the official delegation sent by the Hokage, while the other one... was Orochimaru's people.

The fact that they were dispatched separately indicates that the Hokage Building staff and Orochimaru were not on the same page.

If handled properly, the financial crisis of Sunagakure might actually be able to turn around.

However, once the Hokage Building discovers his deal with Orochimaru, the situation will become extremely dangerous.

Moreover, Orochimaru is known for his cunning and treacherous nature. If he were to renege on his promise and deny the debt, Sunagakure would have no way to deal with him.

but.......

"Sunagakure has never lacked the courage to start over."

“Sunagakure has never lacked the strength to rise again.”

A seed called determination quietly took root in his heart.

He must lead Sunagakure to glory.

This is his responsibility, and also his ambition.

Even if war breaks out again, we will not hesitate.

"Orochimaru...you should understand these principles too, right?"

He turned his gaze back towards Konoha in the distance.

However, at that very moment...

A dazzling red light suddenly appeared on the horizon.

Is it dawn...?

不 ...

It's Shukaku's Tailed Beast Ball!!!

Chapter 79 Mission Completed

Yamanaka Santen stood by the window, first glancing at Hyuga Seiran, who was busy in the room, and then looking at the Sand Village guard ninja who had been knocked unconscious outside the door.

He frowned slightly, reached out and pulled back a corner of the curtain, cautiously peering outside.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Under the pitch-black night sky, white light flashed more and more frequently.

Each time the white light flashed, a deafening explosion followed.

Looking back down at the street, a large number of Sand Village ninjas can be seen rushing towards the scene of the incident.

Three days into the mountain, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly as he watched this scene.

"I knew this mission wouldn't be that simple..."

After learning the shocking news that "Uchiha Madara" was still alive, he no longer found any missions surprising.

After all, even Madara Uchiha, who was supposed to have died long ago, was able to "come back to life".

So how could this peace talks between Konoha and Sunagakure really be just an ordinary peace talks?

Not to mention, their so-called "envoy group" doesn't seem quite normal at all.
