Uchiha Akaishi Tour

Chapter 263 Iron Sand!

Relying on the genjutsu effects of the Sharingan and the interrogation abilities of the King of Hell, Akaishi quickly learned the location of the White Clan's stronghold and captured Sasori, who was the son of Sogen and Masago and the grandson of Chiyo.

At this time, Sasori was only five years old and had not even attended the ninja academy yet.

After Akaishi dealt with the ninja protecting him, he used the power of the Prison King to safely dismember him into eight pieces. In this way, Chiyo would not think of "ambushing" him.

Without the help of the King of Hell, even if Scorpion is rescued, he will only be a human skeleton!

Then, Akaishi's mirror clone, holding Sasori hostage, finally met Chiyo.

Upon seeing Chiyo appear, Akashi's true form immediately took flight aboard the Vermilion Bird and the Tanuki Treasure.

However, such a blatant takeoff immediately attracted the attention of the Sand Ninja.

Some Sand Ninja riding flying puppets then gave chase.

But----

Whoosh! The flying puppeteers who wanted to give chase were all stopped by several white-robed puppets!

"Stop!" Chiyo immediately ordered.

"Chiyo-sama————"

"Let's think about this carefully!" Chiyo said with a dark expression.

At the same time, Ebizo looked at Sasori with concern and questioned Akaishi, "Wait, how can you guarantee that you'll heal Sasori once you're safe?"

"Just a little kid—back then, our Uchiha clan established Konoha to protect children. As the inheritor of the Will of Fire, I naturally won't make things difficult for a child once we're in a safe place," Akaishi said matter-of-factly.

"You better not lie!" Chiyo looked at her grandson with great anxiety.

Although Scorpion seemed to be in no pain, which made her relax a bit, the sight of him being dismembered was still somewhat horrifying and made her uneasy.

"Chiyo-sama————"

At this moment, a ninja from the Blue Clan walked over indignantly.

"If you have nothing to do, hurry up and take care of his other clones!" Chiyo stopped the members of the Blue Clan from coming over.

The old clan leader just died, and the Ao clan is now the second most resentful clan in Sunagakure.

"I will report this matter to the Third Hokage truthfully!" the Blue Clan ninja said angrily.

Seeing Chiyo abusing her power for personal gain, even resorting to violence to block their pursuit of Uchiha Akaishi, the Ao clan ninjas were filled with resentment.

However, Chiyo had no time to consider these things now; all she knew was that she had to save her grandson no matter what!

Seeing that no one was chasing after him, Akaishi's true form smirked.

The red stone disappeared into the western night sky.

Before long, Akashi's other mirror clones in Sunagakure were also killed and stopped splitting. Without Shukaku to restrain them, it was still easy for Sunagakure to deal with Akashi's mirror clones.

Only one mirror clone remained, and it was right next to Scorpion.

"You've already left Sunagakure, release Sasori immediately!" Ebizo said right away.

Akashi smiled slightly and then snapped his fingers.

Then, the scorpion's body actually began to assemble itself in mid-air.

Akaishi was not lying about this.

If it's for escaping, let alone five years old, even five months old, Akaishi would still use them as hostages.

but----

He's just a little kid. Since Akaishi is safe, there's no intention to kill him. Our Konoha was founded precisely to protect children!

Upon seeing this, Chiyo immediately rushed forward and hugged Sasori.

at the same time----

"What happened?"

A familiar voice then came over.

The ninjas of the Blue Clan, who had been looking indignant, suddenly found their leader.

Suddenly, a pair of black iron wings appeared in the sky—

It was the Third Kazekage, Shiya, who was rushing back to Sunagakure. After seeing the flames engulfing Sunagakure in the sky, he immediately controlled the iron sand and formed "Iron Sand Wings" behind him, flying back in the air!

Flying over the mountains surrounding Sunagakure, the Third Kazekage was filled with rage upon seeing the village in ruins.

"The Third Hokage! It was that Uchiha—he caused Shukaku to go berserk and wreaked havoc in the village. The Maho clan just—just—" The Blue Clan ninja said, his face filled with grief.

"Mohuta—" The Third Kazekage realized what had happened and immediately looked at Akaishi and said, "Uchiha—Akaishi?"

""

Of course, the Third Kazekage also knew that the one standing casually in front of him was definitely a clone, and there was no point in destroying it.

"Chiyo—Chiyo clan leader let his true form go! And he won't even let us pursue him!" A ninja from the Blue Clan immediately complained.

The Third Kazekage looked at Chiyo and saw that she didn't speak, but instead handed Sasori over to Ebizo to take him to a safe place to rest. Looking at the Uchiha clones here, the Third Kazekage could probably guess what had happened.

Perhaps because they were still in front of Akaishi's clone, the Third Kazekage didn't immediately deal with Chiyo. Instead, he looked at Akaishi and said coldly, "Uchiha brat, I was originally planning to let you go back after I returned this time, but—"

How could you do such a thing—from this day forward, all the ninja of Sunagakure will consider you their enemy!

Hahaha-

Without saying a word, Akaishi burst into wild laughter.

"Are you going to let me go back? If that's the case, how badly was the Third Kazekage beaten on the front lines?" Akaishi asked sarcastically.

Before the Third Kazekage could even speak, the surrounding Sand Ninja couldn't help but shout, "You bastard, we Sand Ninja—"

"You still consider me an enemy? What misunderstanding do you have? From the moment you began preparing for war against Konoha, every Konoha ninja has been your enemy. Do you still need to consider me an enemy?"

"Not to mention, we Uchiha and Sunagakure haven't avenged the grudges of the Mirror Clan Elder. The number of people you've killed—including that red-haired guy—is less than a finger of the Mirror Clan Elder. You dare to start a war with Konoha? You'd better wash your necks and wait!" Akaishi said, then burst into maniacal laughter again.

Upon hearing Akaishi's words, Chiyo couldn't help herself and instinctively twitched her fingers, ready to strike, but in the next moment—

The Third Kazekage raised his hand to stop her actions, not because Chiyo was particularly obedient, but because—

In an instant, the Third Kazekage's iron sand had seeped into the joints of several of Chiyo's puppets, completely jamming them!

Chiyo's expression changed; she hadn't expected the Third Kazekage's sand control technique to have reached such a level.

"You're clever; you deliberately chose to flee west," the Third Kazekage said coldly.

Akaishi frowned upon hearing this, but then he remembered that the Blue Clan ninja had looked towards the western night sky when Akaishi escaped—that was probably how the Kazekage found out.

"That's right. The Kazekage allows the Sunagakure ninja clan to bully civilian ninjas. Civilian ninjas with ideals and ambitions have long admired our Konoha, a big family where ninja clans and civilians love each other. People have been coming to me every now and then to reveal information about you. I know your whereabouts like the back of my hand!" Akaishi said matter-of-factly.

This is of course a lie —

Akaishi only knew that the Kazekage must have returned from the east, and that—everyone knew that both the Kazekage and the Tsuchikage possessed the ability to engage in aerial combat.

Therefore, just in case, Akaishi avoided the east and left from the west. Although the Kazekage might not be nearby, it was better to take a detour than to be blocked by the Kazekage!

"Really? Then I hope you'll remember one thing from now on—"

The Third Kazekage remained unmoved by this attempt to sow discord, and instead, a smirk appeared on his lips as he spoke.

【Don’t underestimate the Kazekage】Akashi’s true form, through shared vision, read the Third Kazekage’s last words using lip reading.

Red Stone, whose true form was on the back of the raccoon, instinctively narrowed its pupils.

The next moment————

Magnetic Escape·Sand Iron Wall!

A torrent of iron sand, like ocean waves, surged up from the ground, directly blocking the path of the red stone!

At the same time, from the perspective of the mirror clone, Akaishi saw the Third Kazekage of Sunagakure transform into a wisp of iron sand and gradually disappear—

Seeing the "iron wave" surging in like a wall, the raccoon instinctively slowed down, but Chishi pressed down on its back and urged it to "crash" into it!

Out of trust, Raccoon Baby maintains full speed —

boom-

A flash of red light appeared, and a hole was punched through the Third Kazekage's "Sand Iron Wall." A large amount of black sand sprayed and rose up, and Suzaku and Akashi burst out from it.

Just before they were about to collide, Akaishi activated Susanoo in its initial form, and with a single swing of his arm, he punched a hole through the "Iron Sand Wall" and took the opportunity to pass through.

"This is... an iron sand wall?" Akashi exclaimed in surprise.

Clearly, the Kazekage used Magnet Release clones before entering Sunagakure, and his main body was actually chasing Akaishi the whole time!

In order to keep Akaishi calm, the Third Kazekage's Magnet Release clone even pretended to be questioning Akaishi's Mirror clone, until just now—finally catching up.

From within the iron waves, the Third Kazekage appeared: "First of all, this is called 'Sand Iron Wall.'"

Looking at the crimson "bones" surrounding Akaishi, the Third Kazekage fell silent—he had only heard of such things before. Meanwhile, observing Akaishi's expression, the Third Kazekage couldn't help but say, "Secondly, could you perhaps tone down your expression?"

From the moment the Third Kazekage saw him, he noticed a perverted smile on his face, and no one knew what he was enjoying.

As Akaishi looked at the slender, blue-haired, blue-eyed figure floating in the air using iron sand, he had no more illusions left—it really was the Third Kazekage!

"Why is the mighty Wind Shadow hiding his true colors?" Akaishi asked with a wicked smile—almost there, almost full.

Since "disengaging from the battle", Akaishi has been recovering at an accelerated pace!

After all, although they had escaped Sunagakure, the entire Land of Wind was not considered safe.

As expected, Akaishi's caution paid off.

Shimi:————

The Third Kazekage fell silent for a moment; this was the second time recently that he had been described in this way.

The time with Amegakure was to catch Hanzo off guard, but this time—he received a secret report an hour earlier that Uchiha Akaishi was causing trouble in the village, so he sped back. Before returning to Sunagakure, he knew that Akaishi had fled west, so he hid his main body and returned only with a clone!
