Upon assuming the position of Kazekage, he gained something more irreplaceable than life itself...
Reputation!
He died as a Kage in the battle to protect the village, and Sunagakure will remember him forever!
If he were to endanger the village in order to survive, he would be forever nailed to the pillar of shame!
"Haven't made a decision yet?"
Shiranui Sho's lips curled into a slight smile. "Will you fight to the death here, or bring disaster to the village?"
Before he finished speaking, his gaze shifted slightly, and he suddenly looked towards the distant, sand-swirling expanse.
That is……
The next second, the smile in his eyes deepened, and he said softly, "You've been away from the village for so long, and finally someone in Sunagakure has noticed."
Upon hearing Shiranui Sou's words, the Third Kazekage, who was already flying in the air using Magnet Release, immediately looked into the distance.
At the end of the sandstorm, a clear purple hue broke through the hazy dust and sped towards us.
"Chiyo!?"
The Third Kazekage's tense mind suddenly relaxed, and a light of wild joy instantly burst forth in his eyes.
Chiyo was second to none in her mastery of puppetry and poison techniques, and was the strongest ninja in Sunagakure besides him.
Once we get their help, the current predicament can be easily resolved!
Meanwhile, Chiyo, who was in the distance, seemed to have noticed the unusual sandstorm that was heading this way.
The Third Kazekage suddenly flapped his iron sand wings and charged toward Chiyo's position.
In the distance, Chiyo also caught a glimpse of a blurry black figure in the sandstorm. Her brows furrowed, and her speed increased dramatically once more.
"You dare block my way with mere gravel?!"
The Third Kazekage gazed at the sandstorm so close at hand, a ferocious glint in his eyes.
He formed a hand seal, and the jet-black iron sand instantly condensed into a triangular cone in front of him. As it spun at high speed, it quickly broke open a large hole in the barrier formed by the wind and sand.
In the distance, Chiyo's figure became clearer in his eyes.
With the sandstorm gone and the sun shining down on him, he seemed to see the dawn of escaping his predicament and defeating the enemy.
However, the next second, the boy's calm voice drowned out the noise of the wind and sand.
"A thunderous chariot, the seam of a spinning wheel, this thing has light, and it is divided into six."
"The Sixty-First Binding Path, the Six-Staff Light Prison!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shiranui Sou's gaze was fixed on the Third Kazekage in the air, her right hand pointing forward.
Six dazzling white light shards appeared out of thin air, precisely sealing off all of the Third Kazekage's advance and retreat directions, as if six light blades had suddenly pierced through his abdomen, firmly imprisoning him in mid-air!
"What... happened?"
Just as the Third Kazekage was about to break free from the sandstorm, he was shocked to find that his body seemed to have come to a standstill.
The feeling of his abdomen being pierced and confined caused his waist to bend unconsciously.
A dark figure fell from the sky, like a large bird shot down by a hunter!
The wings formed from iron sand on his back scattered instantly after losing the control of the magnetic escape technique.
click, click, click—
The leisurely footsteps clearly reached the ears of the Third Kazekage.
Shiranui Xiao rested the back of her sword on her shoulder, lowered her eyes to look at the immobilized figure on the ground, her eyes completely calm.
He knew this well: to remain humble when things were going well and to press his advantage.
He then drew his dark crimson Zanpakuto, "Shukurou," with the tip pointing downwards.
A flash of cold light, followed by a muffled piercing sound.
A muffled groan came from the ground.
The Third Kazekage's eyes were wide open and bloodshot, his collarbone was pinned to the ground, and excruciating pain swept over his entire body.
The wound he inflicted when he nearly killed Shiranui Sho was right here.
It wouldn't kill him immediately, but he wouldn't survive either.
"Is that Chiyo? She looks like her figure is starting to go out of shape."
Shiranui Sou glanced at the blurry figure in the distance and whispered to the Third Kazekage.
Chiyo was already an old woman with white hair when she appeared in the original work, but she was indeed stunningly beautiful when she was young.
At this time, she was not young anymore, and wrinkles inevitably appeared on her face, and her graceful figure from her youth was no longer visible.
"She already knows that technique, right? Reincarnation?"
Suddenly, Shiranui Sou asked in a low voice.
"How...how could you..."
The Third Kazekage's pupils constricted sharply, his face filled with disbelief.
His life force was rapidly fading, leaving his face as pale as paper and his breath weak and intermittent.
"That seems to confirm it; this trip was worthwhile."
Shiranui Sho grinned, finally letting out a sigh of relief.
He hadn't forgotten that the main purpose of this trip was still the forbidden technique of Sunagakure, Reincarnation.
Killing the Third Kazekage was merely a side effect.
"Do you think Chiyo would sacrifice her life and use her own reincarnation to revive you?"
Shiranui Sho then asked another question.
He had no answer to this question either.
For Sunagakure, the existence of a powerful figure like the Third Kazekage was of strategic significance, and Chiyo's importance was clearly secondary.
If it were for the greater good of Sunagakure, Chiyo's choice to sacrifice her life to save the other party would be the most rational one.
However, Chiyo herself is someone who values family ties and also has her own selfish motives.
Her son and daughter-in-law have both passed away, leaving only her grandson, Scorpion, whom she is worried about living alone in the world.
"It seems you don't have an answer either."
Looking at the Third Kazekage's slightly flickering eyes, Shiranui Sho chuckled.
The next second, all the playfulness in his eyes vanished, leaving only a chilling indifference.
The dark, crimson sword, which was driven into the ground, suddenly rose up and, with the force of thunder, slashed down mercilessly!
Crimson blood gushed out, instantly soaking the scalding yellow sand.
The Third Kazekage's sandy-yellow eyes, once filled with struggle and resentment, ultimately gave way to a deathly gray silence.
Beneath Shiranui Xiao's feet, a deep darkness spread, completely swallowing up any remaining life force on her crippled body.
The wind and sand still howled, but the battlefield here was silent.
Thus, the three generations of Feng Ying have fallen!
Chapter 129 Forbidden Technique: Reincarnation of One's Own Life!
"Weiwei, let's go."
"Shiranui Sou said softly."
In the next instant, the flying sand solidified into a human shape beside him, and a blue-haired girl stood gracefully beside him.
"Congratulations, Lord Xiao, on personally slaying your enemy."
Vivi lowered her eyes and spoke softly, her clear and bright eyes reflecting the mangled corpse of the Third Kazekage on the sand.
She had watched the fierce battle from beginning to end.
She was deeply shocked by the strength of the Third Kazekage.
If it weren't for my ability to transform the Sand-Sand Fruit into an element, I probably would have been killed in a single encounter.
However, this formidable enemy ultimately died at the hands of Shiranui Sho.
At this moment, she gained a more genuine and profound understanding of Shiranui Sou's unfathomable strength.
"Ah."
Shiranui Sho nodded slightly, a hint of amusement playing at the corners of her lips.
By slaying the Third Kazekage, he finally put an end to one of his worries.
Vivi said no more and quietly activated the fruit's power.
A gentle sandstorm swept up the two of them, carrying them away into the distance, where they vanished in an instant at the edge of the vast desert.
……
Not long after.
Chiyo, whose hair had turned quite white, rushed to the side of the Third Kazekage.
She stared at the mutilated, lifeless corpse on the sand, her pupils suddenly contracting violently, and her blood almost instantly freezing.
"...Third generation!?"
She stumbled and knelt beside the lifeless corpse, her knees sinking into the blood-red gravel.
The Third Kazekage, whose Magnet Release technique was so masterful that his strength was even considered to surpass that of the previous Kazekage, actually died such a tragic death!?
The body before us was almost completely destroyed, except for the vaguely recognizable features.
Even if she were to truly resolve to use her Reincarnation Technique at this moment, she would likely be powerless to reverse the situation.
The moment Chiyo confirmed that Kazekage had completely perished, she was utterly exhausted and collapsed onto the blood-red sand.
Anger, worry, and fear intertwined, creeping into her aged eyes.
They were too far apart just now, and she could only vaguely see two blurry figures.
By the time she realized the Third Kazekage had fallen from the sky, everything had already settled, and it was too late.
Who exactly is capable of killing the Third Kazekage?
I was filled with immense doubt and fear, and my heart was heavy with worry.
……
An oasis thousands of miles away from Shayin Village.
Shiranui Sou and Vivi rested quietly there. Before long, a tall, slender figure slowly approached.
Orochimaru arrived late, his pale, slender fingers carrying a bundle of heavy scrolls, clearly having successfully completed his mission of stealing the Book of Sand Village's seal.
Orochimaru's eyes widened in surprise as he watched the two who had arrived at the meeting point before him.
"Xiao Jun, the Third Generation Kazekage..."
"died."
Shiranui Sou spoke casually and naturally.
Those two simple words instantly sent a chill down Orochimaru's spine.
He gazed intently at the boy before him, his heart churning with turbulent emotions.
The Third Kazekage actually fell into his hands!
Suppressing the shock in his heart, Orochimaru raised his hand and shook the heavy scroll in his hand, then licked his lips.
"This is the Book of Sealing of Sunagakure. I glanced at it briefly on the way here, and it does indeed contain the forbidden technique you mentioned."
"Among them are other secret ninjutsu and forbidden techniques of Sunagakure. I will transcribe them for you when we return to Konoha."
"Then thank you very much, Orochimaru-senpai."
Shiranui Xiao smiled and nodded, her tone calm and gentle, no longer displaying the murderous aura she had when facing the Third Kazekage.
