Naruto: Reshaping the Shinobi World with Sasori

Chapter 166 Yubi's Speech and Embarrassment

Yubi led several Sunagakure ninja back to the village.

At this time, the surviving and still mobile members of Sunagakure village, under the command of Chiyo and others, began rescue work.

Although it was only an elite squad from Kumogakure that broke into Sunagakure, the damage they caused to the village was considerable.

Fortunately, the Third Raikage and his group's goal was to obtain medicinal resources, not simply to destroy Sunagakure; otherwise, the village's losses would have been even greater.

But the current situation is also not good.

During the great war, Sunagakure only had a few hundred soldiers left. After this battle, it would be good if they could still manage to put together a force of a few dozen men.

There's nothing we can do about it—the population of the Land of Wind isn't very large to begin with, and the number of Sand Village ninjas is far less than that of the other major ninja villages. In addition, the village's economy has only really taken off in the last year or so.

Although the Second Shinobi World War ended long ago, the Third Kazekage's previous actions allowed the village to recover much faster than other ninja villages.

This has resulted in a situation where, after sending most of the troops to the front lines, there are very few available personnel left.

Fortunately, the Cloud Village's surprise attack was not aimed at civilians; those attacked were only the ninjas who were forced to fight.

After quickly treating the situation, Chiyo dragged her injured body and rushed to Ebizo's side.

Ebizo was also seriously injured, but he still managed to surround five Uchiha and one member of the Motomu clan who suddenly appeared in the village.

The other party was wearing Konoha combat uniforms and headbands, and the Jonin vests worn by some of them further indicated that they were not ordinary people.

Chiyo stared blankly at the few outsiders who stood frozen like puppets in the hospital.

She rushed over because the situation here was somewhat difficult to handle.

It could even be described as bizarre.

Why would people from Konoha appear in Sunagakure?

When did you come in?

And—what's the situation now?

It seems that these people killed two Cloud Villagers who were active in the hospital area.

Faced with their questioning, including the hostility from the surrounding Sunagakure, the six remained unmoved and unresponsive.

""

However, if anyone approaches rashly, these six people will immediately enter combat mode, giving off a very dangerous feeling.

The situation became somewhat tense for a moment.

"What should we do?" Ebizo, his face pale, looked at Chiyo and asked.

"Don't act rashly yet, wait for Yubi to return."

Chiyo took a breath.

My instinct tells me that these people are most likely connected to Yubi.

Chiyo's face fell again at the mention of Yubi. Yubi had rashly chased after the Third Raikage and his companion away from the village, seemingly driving away the enemy and danger on her own. However, she knew that the Third Raikage was no pushover and would surely strike Yubi without mercy if given the chance.

That's the Raikage, who has the title of "the strongest spear in the ninja world".

She led several hundred men in a battle, but could only barely hold off the enemy.

If Yubi hadn't arrived in time, Chiyo would have been prepared to sacrifice herself—facing the Kage of a village standing at the pinnacle of the ninja world, Yubi's fate could no longer be described as dangerous.

It was a complete brush with death.

Killing Yubi, a rising star in the ninja world, wouldn't be too difficult for the Raikage.

Therefore, Chiyo remained uneasy.

His face was full of worry.

She was already mentally prepared.

The few Sand Villagers she sent out returned with grief-stricken reports—

However, the closer it gets to this point, the more experienced she is, the less she can afford to panic. She knows very well that the first priority is to quell the dark clouds within the village.

With this thought in mind, she glanced around and noticed that the Sand Village residents present all had low spirits.

On the distant streets, the villagers who were being brought out of the safe haven were all still in shock, their faces filled with grief.

In that instant, it was as if the village's disappointment on the battlefield during the last Shinobi World War had once again enveloped everyone.

The village's hard-won economic recovery and prosperity are showing signs of stalling due to the heavy blow dealt by the Third Raikage.

"The human heart—that's what matters most."

Chiyo tasted bitterness, and her heart was heavy.

It should be noted that besides the villagers, there were also many merchant caravans from outside the village at this time. They couldn't keep these people quiet, and the news would inevitably leak out.

"Not to mention these people, even the Third Raikage will definitely make a big deal out of this matter after he returns to Kumogakure."

At that time, the entire ninja world will know that their Sand Village was breached by the Raikage leading an elite squad from the Cloud Village, who also stole most of their medical resources.

This would weaken Sunagakure and put them in a very passive position—making them a target for other ninja villages.

Most importantly, the Raikage's actions may just be a preliminary signal—the next step for Kumogakure will, without a doubt, be a large-scale attack on Sunagakure.

Currently, in order to deal with Iwagakure and Konoha, and also to guard against Kirigakure, the village's military strength has been almost completely depleted.

If we add a Cloud Hidden One—

Thinking of this, Chiyo's vision went black, her figure swayed, and she almost lost her footing.

Fortunately, a Sand Village ninja nearby reacted quickly and caught her.

"If the third generation were here—"

Chiyo sighed.

The shadow of a village is extremely important.

With Fengying around, the village's situation might not change much, but it certainly wouldn't be this bad.

"Lord Yubi is back—"

Just then, one of the Sand Village members that Chiyo had sent out to find Yubi returned and quickly jumped down in front of the group, his eyes red-rimmed.

His tone, however, was extremely enthusiastic.

His expression betrayed his excitement.

Ok?

Where are they?

Chiyo noticed his surprised expression and instinctively asked.

Yubi's safe return at least gave her a sigh of relief.

"At the main gate—Lord Yubi summoned all the village's ninjas and civilians, including caravans, to gather there." The former couldn't help but burst into tears.

This caused Chiyo and Ebizo to exchange a glance.

Realizing something was wrong, my heart skipped a beat, and I thought something had happened to Yubi.

"Lord Yubi is alright—you two will find out when you get there."

"This is great news, fantastic news!"

Seeing Chiyo and the other's pale faces, the Sand Villager immediately realized they had misunderstood. He wiped away his tears and said excitedly.

good thing?

With the village in such a state, what good things could possibly happen?

Despite their thoughts, Chiyo and Ebizo still headed towards the village gate together.

They left the other Sand Village members behind to keep an eye on the Uchiha and the others.

Soon, Chiyo arrived at the village gate, where the area was almost entirely in ruins.

But the open space was crowded with people, including Sand Villagers and ordinary citizens.

More and more people kept coming after hearing the news—

The number of people gathered kept increasing.

At the very front of the crowd stood Yubi, dressed in tattered clothes—judging from his appearance, he had clearly just gone through a fierce battle.

When Chiyo's gaze fell upon a corpse beside Yubi, her head buzzed instantly, and she froze on the spot.

Ebizo, standing beside her, also had his mouth slightly open—he seemed distracted.

That was—the Third Raikage?

The man who was rampaging through the village like a god of death not long ago is now—a corpse?

real or fake?

Chiyo suddenly felt a sense of unreality.

Yubi—killed him?

"Gentlemen—the Raikage of Kumogakure personally led a surprise attack on our Sunagakure. Because the ninja world is currently at war, the village's defenses are relatively limited, giving them an opportunity to cause damage to our village and resulting in the loss of some of our loved ones and comrades. As a member of Sunagakure, I apologize for this."

"We failed to protect everyone properly and caused you all distress—"

"But when facing the enemy, we of Sunagakure never show mercy. Since the enemy has the audacity to come, we are confident that he will not return alive!"

"The corpse beside me is the Third Raikage of Kumogakure."

"The Hidden Cloud Village has lost a Kage, but this is the price they must pay."

"This is also proof of our Sand Village's unwavering will to leave a painful mark on our enemies!"

In the distance, under the watchful eyes of many, Yubi spoke loudly.

His words, though devoid of much emotion, revealed a firm will, which inspired and inspired the entire crowd that had gathered.

At this moment, Yubi remained neither arrogant nor humble; despite his young age, he displayed a unique composure.

His words were reassuring—and they inspired countless villagers to cheer and feel greatly encouraged.

A chorus of voices erupted from the crowd.

The death of the Third Raikage was like a shot in the arm, preventing the village, which had been severely damaged, from falling into depression and instead unleashing an even stronger spirit!

Yubi's charisma is something that even Chiyo and Ebizo, the two elders of Sunagakure, have never seen in the other generations of Kazekage.

A different kind of charm.

"Yubi!"

"Yubi!"

Among the crowd, both villagers and ninjas were calling out Yubi's name.

Many people cried.

"Wind Shadow!"

"Wind Shadow!"

"Fourth generation!"

Then, in no time, the deafening roar turned into slogans.

Ok?

This phenomenon made Yubi's eyelids twitch.

The situation suddenly became a bit out of control—

Yubi only intended to use the Third Raikage's corpse to boost the morale of the village, which had been dampened by the disaster, without considering that it would negatively impact the village's atmosphere and the newly established businesses.

At the same time, it sends a signal to the outside world.

That is, even without the Kazekage, Sunagakure is not a place where anyone can come and go as they please.

But now—

5

Suddenly, Yubi felt that things were getting out of hand.

"Ahem—okay, that's all I wanted to say, everyone can go now—"

Seeing that the crowd's emotions were rising and the situation was getting out of control, Yubi tried to remain calm and coughed a few times.

He hastily finished speaking and quickly fled with the body of the Third Raikage.

Upon regaining her senses, Chiyo calmed herself down after seeing what was happening.

He immediately stepped forward and took over the atmosphere that Yubi had created.

At the same time, he glanced in the direction where Yubi had disappeared and made a decision.
