Naruto: Help Madara rejuvenate and launch a counterattack on Konoha

Kuromaru stepped forward to stop him, but it was too late.

With a single release of its claws, it can detect scents from tens of kilometers away.

Claw first smelled the strong stench of blood from the Sand Village Kazekage Building. Her calm face instantly turned pale, and her lips trembled slightly.

"What's going on? Why is there such a strong smell of blood at the Sunagakure Kazekage Building?"

Besides the Wind Shadow Building, a domineering smell of yellow sand overwhelmed Claw's sense of smell.

The Shukaku altar was neither too close nor too far from the center of Sunagakure Village, and Claw's super sense of smell detected it very clearly.

"This scent... this... this is a Shukaku. Sunagakure has released Shukaku."

"Wait, this smell... it's Uchiha Ryou's smell, and his ninja cat."

"Damn it, the worst thing still happened. Madara Uchiha still made a move against Sunagakure."

"Immediately send a message back to Konoha and tell the Hokage that Uchiha Ryougo has attacked Sunagakure and captured the One-Tailed Shukaku."

In an instant, the entire Konoha embassy was thrown into chaos.

……

The Crane Guardian Altar.

Rasa is battling the Third Kazekage, controlled by Sasori, in a Magnet Release ninjutsu contest.

Rasa's Magnet Release is inferior to that of the Third Kazekage. In terms of hardness, iron sand is harder and more abundant than gold sand.

The advantage of gold over iron is its price.

Gold is highly stable, resistant to acids and alkalis, biocompatible, and has excellent corrosion resistance. It hardly rusts or oxidizes.

Therefore, gold is generally considered the equivalent of currency.

But in terms of power, gold cannot compare to iron.

I've never heard of anyone using gold to make weapons to kill people; even if they did, it would only be a display of power and wealth.

Rasa's gold dust was no match for the Third Kazekage's iron sand. The only advantage of gold dust in combat was its excellent ductility.

One gram of gold can be drawn into fine wires several kilometers long, and sand can be drawn into fine wires, thin sheets, and chains.

It will not crack when attacked by iron sand; it will only dent or deform.

However, this alone is not enough to contend with the Third Kazekage's iron sand.

Furthermore, the Third Kazekage was a human puppet, his entire body modified by Sasori into hidden weapons and mechanisms, making him a killing machine without the ability to feel pain.

Scorpion is now the terrifyingly venomous Red-Tailed Scorpion, mixing his venom into the iron sand and the puppet weapons within the Third Kazekage's body, combining the poison with the iron sand for a combined attack.

Rasa was a mortal with no medical ninjutsu; even a slight touch of Rasa would kill him.

He has no room for error.

In the original story, Sakura and Granny Chiyo were able to fight Sasori to a standstill because Sakura had already countered Sasori's poison and created an antidote.

Rasa only has gold dust suppressed by iron sand. How can he fight Scorpion?

Luo Sha was forced to retreat in defeat.

During a lull in their fight, they sensed the fury of the yellow sand and witnessed Shukaku breaking free of its seal.

Luo Sha looked back and saw that Shukaku's huge body had crushed the altar, and Liao Wu and the others were buried in the yellow sand.

Rasa's face was somewhat grim, because his wife and son were among them, and Shukaku had attacked them all at once.

The Third Kazekage's iron sand needles rushed over.

Scorpion sneered, "Luo Sha, you still have the leisure to care about others?"

Luo Sha hastily used placer gold to deal with the situation.

"Damn it, Sasori, why did you join Madara Uchiha's side? Don't you know his goal is to trap the entire ninja world in a world of genjutsu?"

A low, mocking laugh escaped from Scorpion's nose, laced with undisguised sarcasm: "So what? The ninja world is ravaged by war year after year, and small countries are left devastated."

"In the three years I've traveled through the ninja world, all I've seen is hell on earth. The people are emaciated, and adults and children are skin and bones from hunger."

"Numbness and fear are etched on everyone's faces! What can save this cursed world?"

"There's nothing wrong with the world of illusion. Reality is too cruel. At least you can have a beautiful dream from which you can never wake up."

Does Sasori agree with Madara's Eye of the Moon plan?

Scorpion approves of the art of eternity, believing that flesh and blood are weak and that one must ascend through machinery.

But he is inherently a selfish person; otherwise, he wouldn't have killed the Third Kazekage who had always helped and comforted him.

In the original story, Yura also had a Jonin from Sunagakure who served as an undercover agent for Sasori in Sunagakure for many years, doing so many dirty and tiring jobs for him.

In the end, however, he became a sacrifice for Itachi and Kisame to activate the Transformation Technique.

He also has a collection of human puppets, nearly three hundred in total, all made from living people.

These are people who meet Scorpion's artistic standards; those who don't are probably kicked to death like stray dogs on the street.

Scorpion is a great villain; killing him would bring immense merit.

Scorpion is indifferent to the world; he is only pursuing his own perfection, seeking a world beyond flesh and blood, to become an eternal puppet.

Now, those who work for Liao Wu are forced to do so; their lives are in Liao Wu's hands, and they are Liao Wu's puppets.

"Alright, Rasa, I'm not going to say any more. Just obediently become my collectible!"

"Magnetic Release: Iron Sand Boundary Technique!"

Sasori controlled the Third Kazekage and released a sand and iron barrier.

Now, Rasa had no energy left to deal with Shukaku's affairs, and was busy dealing with the Third Kazekage's Iron Sand Law.

This is the Third Kazekage's strongest attack.

"Roar!"

Shukaku let out a maniacal laugh, his eyes filled with rage and ecstasy.

How many years has it been? How many years has it been?

It finally saw the sunlight from the outside world.

Unlike other tailed beasts, Shukaku was sealed in Bunboku Chagama by a monk from the Land of Wind during the Warring States period.

After that, it was enshrined in the temple of the Wind Temple, where it listened to a group of monks chanting sutras every day.

What sets it apart from other tailed beasts is that it wasn't captured by Hashirama Senju, but rather sealed away by the people of the Land of Wind themselves.

During the first Five Kage Summit, the First Kazekage went begging for food; he didn't want Hashirama's tailed beasts, but rather fertile land.

Shukaku was sealed for a longer period of time than the other tailed beasts.

Things were a bit better during the ninja village era, when all the major ninja villages wanted to use the tailed beasts on the battlefield.

Shukaku was thus sealed inside the monk Fenfu.

But it wasn't much better!

Nearly a hundred years of imprisonment in a state of perpetual darkness would drive even the most normal person to the brink of insanity.

So when Shukaku appeared, he attacked indiscriminately, killing everyone, whether they were Uchiha or Sunagakure people, because they were all despicable humans.

"Cough cough cough..."

Grandma Chiyo choked on the sand while sitting on Shukaku's shoulder and coughed a few times.

She looked around at the mess with a grim expression. Because of Shukaku's sandstorm, many of the Sand Village's ANBU were buried under it.

Uchiha Ryou's whereabouts are unknown, and her younger brother Ebizo is presumably buried in the sand and has lost his life.

"Shukaku, what have you done? You've killed all the village's ninjas! How are we supposed to fight against Uchiha Ryougo now?"
