Konoha: The Gu Master Creates the Hokage.

Chapter 229 Deidara's Self-Destruction, Sasori's Capture (Four-in-One Chapter)

Aburame Shiki had already arrived when Deidara stormed into Sunagakure.

But he didn't rush to reveal it.

There's a saying, how does it go?

It's better to offer help in times of need than to add flowers to brocade.

It is only by appearing at the most critical moment that it can play the greatest role.

in the sky.

The aerial combat between the three continued.

After Shino Aburame used Parasite Explosion, Deidara finally became interested.

He stood on the owl, his beaks in his palms constantly chewing on clay.

"What's your name?"

Deidara smiled.

"Aburame Shino."

"Shino Aburame said calmly."

Although he is usually very low-key, he has always had a dream: to revive the glory of the oil women.

The Akatsuki's attack on Sunagakure was a major event that was destined to be known throughout the ninja world.

He can gain popularity simply by making a move.

What are your thoughts on the explosion?

Deidara narrowly avoided the quicksand controlled by Gaara.

The owl is no slower than the giant white bird.

It left a gray silhouette in the air.

Shino Aburame didn't want to discuss things further with Deidara, but he suddenly remembered something Shiki Aburame had said before.

He adjusted his glasses and said, "Art is an explosion."

"Is art just an explosion?"

Deidara was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, saying, "Just for that one sentence, I'll definitely give you the most dignified way to die!"

He stretched out his hands as he spoke.

A pile of white clay appeared in his hand.

C2·Dragon!

Deidara flicked his hands, sending all the clay flying out.

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, a giant dragon with wings on its back was born.

Gaara's gaze sharpened.

With such a large size, once it explodes, the area affected will be very wide.

Hand of Sand!

Countless grains of quicksand coalesced into a gigantic hand, reaching out to grab the white dragon.

Both are of similar size.

They are very eye-catching in the air.

The dragon opened its mouth, and a white cannonball flew out.

A deafening explosion rang out.

Gaara's Sand Hand was blown in two.

"Its power has increased significantly."

Gaara's expression darkened slightly.

He took a deep breath, preparing to draw upon more chakra.

Just then, accompanied by a strange sound, a giant insect appeared in front of Shino Aburame.

It resembles a spider, with six legs, but also has wings.

Deidara, standing on the owl, revealed a hint of anticipation.

The giant insect flew out under Shino Aburame's control.

It crashed into the dragon at an extremely high speed.

In the air, a black shadow appeared on its body.

Those are all parasites.

Deidara was startled, remembering the explosion from earlier.

The owl carried him and flew quickly backward.

The next moment, a piercing explosion rang out.

Flames and thick smoke quickly filled the air, forming an explosive cloud tens of meters high centered on the dragon and insects.

"So strong!"

Nara Shikamaru was dumbfounded.

"Isn't he your friend?"

Temari snapped out of her daze and bumped his arm.

"They're friends, but I've never seen this ninjutsu before."

Nara Shikamaru said with a wry smile, "Now it seems that everyone in our class was more abnormal than the last."

"And you?"

Temari asked curiously.

"You know me."

Nara Shikamaru shrugged and said.

Maki sighed.

Sunagakure is now being held up by Gaara, not to mention the younger generation, even the previous two generations.

But what about Konoha?

A constant stream of powerful figures.

And they're all so young.

"Is this attack still ineffective?"

Kankuro looked at Deidara, who was completely unharmed, and muttered to himself.

Maki, Temari, and the others remained silent.

While remaining silent, I also felt ashamed.

They couldn't help at all.

[Achieve the achievement "That's My Word" with Deidara to receive the reward: Heavenly Demon Corpse Gu.]

[Heavenly Demon Corpse Gu: A fifth-level Gu worm, possessing the Dao of Transformation. Upon use, it transforms into the Heavenly Demon Corpse, one of the six great flying zombies.]

Oil Girl Zhihui raised an eyebrow.

He hadn't expected that the first achievement he triggered today would come from Deidara.

He glanced at the reward briefly and then ignored it.

Because the scorpion made a move.

"Who?!"

Sasori was discovered shortly after entering Sunagakure.

Four ninjas blocked his way.

"Wait! His clothes!"

The young ninja's expression suddenly changed drastically.

He discovered that Sasori's clothes were exactly the same as Deidara's.

"Enemy attack!"

The young ninja shouted immediately.

"What's going on?"

Upon hearing the sound, Maki and the others instinctively turned their heads and witnessed a horrifying scene.

A metal tail extended from the scorpion's back, piercing through all four of them.

"It's the Akatsuki!"

Nara Shikamaru was startled and said.

"The rest of you, step back!"

Maki said decisively.

Judging from Deidara's strength, Sasori's strength would be such that any ordinary ninja who went forward would simply be throwing their lives away.

"Are you a puppeteer?"

Kankuro noticed something amiss, stepped forward, and said in a deep voice, "I'll handle this guy."

"Kankuro?"

Temari frowned involuntarily.

"The puppeteer understands the puppeteer best."

Kankuro smiled confidently and said, "Besides, when it comes to puppeteers, who can compare to Sunagakure?"

He casually took out three scrolls and threw them on the ground.

He was confident, but not arrogant.

Crows, black ants, and salamanders.

He brought out all the puppets.

"Let him give it a try."

Maki reached out and stopped Temari, saying...

First, to test Scorpion's strength.

Secondly, Kankuro was indeed quite skilled as a puppeteer.

Apart from the reclusive Granny Chiyo, it would be difficult to find a puppeteer stronger than him in the entire Sand Village.

Kankuro's three puppets, in particular, are considered to be of the highest standard in the ninja world.

Sasori stared at the three puppets for a few seconds, then turned his gaze to Deidara.

He was at a disadvantage under the combined attack of Gaara and Shino Aburame.

"I don't like wasting time."

Sasori looked at Kankuro again and said, "So let's finish this quickly."

"Don't underestimate me!"

Kankuro was furious.

He leaned back slightly, his ten fingers spread out.

Several chakra threads and three puppets.

Under his control, the crow took off first.

Three curved blades shot out from the left and right sides, resembling ribs and gleaming with a cold light.

The scorpion remained motionless, its metallic tail lashing out at the crow like a venomous snake.

Kankuro chuckled softly.

The salamander emerges from the ground, its back rising up as a defensive shield.

With a clang.

The scorpion's metal tail failed to achieve its goal.

Just then, Kankuro suddenly swung his hands around.

Black ants emerged from behind the scorpion, opened their abdomens, and stuffed him inside.

At the same time, the blades inside his body slashed towards him.

Outside, the crow's six knives, like arms, embraced the scorpion.

A clanging sound rang out.

The crow plunged all six of its knives into the black ant's body.

"The Akatsuki organization is nothing special!"

Kankuro wore a smug smile.

Caught between black ants and crows, he didn't believe anyone could escape.

"Well done."

Maki felt somewhat relieved.

But they still didn't let their guard down.

A cold glint appeared.

The metal tail instantly tore the black ant to shreds.

"What?!"

Kankuro's smile froze.

Despite his shock, he didn't forget to control the crow.

He spat out three kunai from his mouth.

Seeing this, the scorpion also opened its mouth.

Countless poisonous needles flew out, riddling the crow with holes.

"Damn it!"

Kankuro waved both hands.

The salamander deployed its defensive shield once again.

The poison needle was deflected by metal.

Scorpion glanced at it indifferently, its metal tail slicing through the air and precisely striking a joint of the salamander.

With a loud bang.

The puppet, capable of withstanding the destruction of tens of tons of boulders, was reduced to fragments.

"How is this possible?!"

Kankuro asked with an incredulous look on his face.

Maki, Temari, and the others also showed expressions of shock.

They wouldn't be so surprised if Sasori used powerful ninjutsu to shatter the puppet.

But he was using a puppet, and only one.

"Who...who are you?"

Kankuro suddenly realized something and asked in alarm, "Why do you know so much about the three puppets?"

learn?

Maki and Temari realized what was happening.

The scorpion's attack is simple yet effective.

This clearly indicates that they have all the information about the three puppets.

Scorpion raised his left hand.

A machine gun suddenly flew out of his arm.

In the air, the cylinders on the machine guns sped in all directions.

"Be careful!"

Maki shouted quickly.

But it was too late.

More than ten cylinders exploded, and like a torrential rain, countless poisonous needles rained down.

A scream rang out.

Everyone collapsed to the ground.

"poisonous……"

Maki felt numb all over and couldn't move.

The scorpion did not kill them.

It wasn't that they were being soft-hearted; rather, they planned to take them hostage and then threaten Gaara into surrendering.

"I'm sorry, they can't die."

Accompanied by a calm voice, a white figure appeared in front of everyone.

"Zhihui!"

Nara Shikamaru was immediately overjoyed.

"It's the Hokage!"

Temari breathed a sigh of relief and said, "We're saved!"

Maki and the others felt as if they had survived a disaster.

They naturally believed in Yu Nu Zhihui.

After all, his recent achievements have already spread throughout the ninja world.

"Naruto?"

Scorpion's face darkened as he said, "What I hate most is people wasting my time!"

He had no fear of the so-called Hokage.

But his time will be wasted.

"Perfect, I don't like wasting time either."

Yu Nu Zhihui smiled faintly and said.

The scorpion stopped talking.

His metal tail flew out.

Yu Nuzhihui raised her hand.

The Gathering Light Gu, the Supreme Light Gu, and the Rivers Under the Sun Gu were activated simultaneously.

Heavenly Waterfall and Radiant River!

A blinding light instantly spread out from him.

A dazzling river of light, as bright as a flowing river, descended from the sky.

His metal tail was the first to melt.

The Akatsuki's clothes followed immediately, turning to ashes in an instant.

Beneath his clothes was his puppet, Hiruko.

A snap.

Endless light engulfed him.

"What... what kind of ninjutsu is this?!"

Temari covered her eyes, only to feel a sharp pain.

"Just...just...annihilate them?"

Kankuro collapsed to the ground, speechless for a long time.

He had just fought with Sasori and knew how powerful Hiruko was.

But Shiki Aburame waved his hand and destroyed it.

That's absolutely outrageous.

"No...that's not right!"

Maki suddenly stood up, looking horrified.

"How……"

Kankuro was stunned.

When the light faded, a red-haired boy appeared before everyone.

His upper body had obvious black marks on his neck, arms, and heart.

"You...you're a Scorpion?!"

Machi recognized him.

"Sasori of the Red Sand?"

Kankuro was immediately jolted awake.

He understood everything!

Why does the other party know so much about his three puppets?

Because he is the scorpion, the creator of the three puppets.

"A human puppet?!"

Kankuro glanced at it twice and couldn't help but swallow hard.

A human puppet is a puppet made from a dead person, and it can retain all the ninjutsu and bloodline limit it had when it was alive.

But human puppets are not allowed.

Maki, Temari, and the others stood there, speechless.

Sasori is the grandson of Granny Chiyo and the most talented puppeteer in the history of Sunagakure.

However, he went to extremes after his parents' death, researching human puppets, and then disappeared, directly defecting.

"Your skills are quite good."

Scorpion said expressionlessly.

As for Maki and the others, he didn't even glance at them.

He waved his hand casually.

A humanoid puppet appeared above his head.

"That's the Third Kazekage?!"

Maki blurted out, "Scorpion, so it was you who killed the Third Kazekage!"

The sudden disappearance of the Third Kazekage left Sunagakure leaderless and rife with internal strife, causing immense losses.

So many years have passed, and we still don't know who the murderer is.

"How could you do this to Granny Chiyo?"

Maki said angrily.

But Scorpion still ignored it.

"Sasori of the Red Sand? The Third Kazekage?"

Even in the midst of battle, Gaara still keeps an eye on what's happening below.

At that moment, he had a bad feeling.

Both Sasori of the Red Sand and the Third Kazekage can be considered renowned and powerful ninjas.

Oil Girl Zhihui, can he take on two opponents at once?

"Brother Scorpion has finally arrived."

Deidara was in a somewhat disheveled state, but he was very excited.

With Scorpion's strength, he can definitely defeat them and then come to help him.

Aburame Shino was very calm.

He believed in the oil woman, Zhihui.

The most urgent task now is to take down Deidara.

The battle in the sky continues, and so does the battle on the ground.

Magnet Release: Iron Sand Rain!

The Third Kazekage formed hand seals.

The black iron sand surged out like ocean waves.

Wind Tiger Cloud Dragon Gu!

Oil Girl Zhihui activated her true essence.

In an instant, the wind and clouds surged.

Amidst the howling wind, the gale transformed into the shape of a tiger, charging forward like a thousand troops.

The black waves shattered at the slightest touch.

The wind tiger continued its journey.

The white clouds in the sky intertwined and transformed into the shape of a dragon.

They descended from the sky, joined forces with the Wind Tiger, and marched in a mighty procession toward the Third Kazekage and Scorpion.

Magnetic Escape·Sand Iron Wall!

The Third Kazekage quickly formed hand seals.

A black wall blocked their way.

A continuous series of impact sounds are produced.

The black walls were crumbling.

The scorpion clapped his hands together.

A scroll is thus opened.

Scroll - Fiery Prison Array!

He raised his hands, and two streams of flame shot out from his palms.

A scorching heat swirls around.

In an instant, the flames rapidly spread, transforming into a sea of ​​fire that collided with the Wind Tiger and Cloud Dragon.

A violent surge of chakra immediately spread outwards.

The ground cracked and dust flew everywhere.

"Wow...that's amazing!"

"One against two, and they still managed a draw?"

"Those rumors seem to be true!"

The Sand Village residents who were lying on the ground watching all exclaimed in amazement.

Unlike Temari and Nara Shikamaru, they hadn't witnessed Aburame Shiki's previous battles firsthand.

The impact on them is now enormous.

In particular, Aburame Shiki's opponents are Sasori of the Red Sand and the Third Kazekage.

The flames vanished, leaving behind a scene of utter devastation.

Scorpion has become serious.

He had heard that Aburame Shiki had captured Orochimaru, but he didn't think much of it.

But now that I've experienced it firsthand, I understand that this Hokage is even more powerful than the rumors suggest.

With that in mind, Scorpion no longer held back.

He took out a second scroll, and when he opened it, countless puppets appeared all around him.

In the blink of an eye, there were more than a hundred puppets.

"That's impossible!"

Kankuro stared intently at Sasori, despair filling his heart.

A puppeteer who can control three or four puppets is considered excellent.

As far as he knew, the most skilled puppeteer in Sunagakure, Granny Chiyo, could control up to ten puppets.

Now, hundreds of puppets appeared before him.

Is this really possible to manipulate?

Maki and Temari exchanged a glance.

Although they were not puppeteers, as high-ranking members of Sunagakure, they naturally understood puppetry.

They had never seen anything like it before.

The puppeteers behind them were terrified, feeling as if their senses were being distorted.

Crimson Secret Technique: Hundred Machine Manipulation!

He once used this to destroy a country.

Scorpion's ten fingers moved as if playing the piano.

Under his control, all the puppets rushed towards the crowd.

In reality, it's Yu Nu Zhi Hui.

Because the others were poisoned and unable to move.

Seeing that Scorpion could indeed control so many puppets, they all turned pale, feeling as if they would be returning to the Pure Land at any moment.

The Sound-Binding Gu!

Oil Girl Zhihui waved his hand casually.

Invisible sound waves spread outwards.

The rushing puppet froze in place.

For a moment, it appeared quite spectacular.

Just then, everything went black before Yu Nuzhihui's eyes.

He looked up and saw the spinning top above him.

This is the Third Kazekage's Magnet Release: Iron Sand Spinner.

It fell at an extremely high speed.

Giant Spirit Transformation!

The Giant Spirit Intent Gu, Giant Spirit Heart Gu, and Giant Spirit Body Gu were activated simultaneously.

Oil Girl Zhihui's body grew proportionally.

Stop when it reaches five meters.

He clenched his fist and unleashed a powerful strike.

It was powerful and swift, and a sonic boom immediately filled the air.

White shockwaves spread outwards.

The iron top fell and was then smashed by a punch.

Black iron filings fell like raindrops, causing the ground to shake.

Scorpion's heart trembled slightly.

What kind of ninjutsu is this?

But he was quick with his hands.

The sound-fixing gu has a limited range; it only fixed about one-third of his puppets.

The remaining puppets had reached Aburame Shiki.

They all revealed their respective attack methods.

Some were sharp knives, some were poisoned needles, and some were kunai.

Poison needles and kunai arrived first.

Yu Nu Zhihui completely ignored him.

His tortoise-jade wolf-skin Gu gu activated automatically, providing defense against even the most intense attacks.

Aburame Shiki clenched his fists, and every muscle in his body burst forth with tremendous power.

At the same time, golden light emanated from his body.

The Golden Glow Gu was activated.

Boom boom boom!

With each punch he threw, a puppet was shattered into dust.

Scorpion's puppets were of the highest quality, but they couldn't withstand the terrifying power of Aburame Shiki.

Moreover, under the influence of the Golden Glow Gu, his speed was astonishing.

In less than ten seconds, most of the puppets had fallen apart.

Scorpion finally realized his mistake.

He quickly retrieved the puppet.

Magnet Release: Iron Sand Boundary Technique!

The Third Kazekage formed hand seals under his control.

Countless iron sands refracted and meandered like rays of light.

Centered on the Third Kazekage, a massive barrier was formed.

This is his most terrifying Magnet Release ninjutsu.

Within the barrier, he could freely manipulate the long spikes to attack.

Moreover, it has the highest density of attacks and defenses.

The sound of wind breaking rang out.

Sharp black spikes, like a swarm of venomous snakes, chased after Aburame Shiki from all directions.

Body Flicker Technique!

Aburame Shiki dodged the attack.

But they seem to have eyes and come back again.

He threw a punch.

The clanging sounds of metal clashing echoed one after another.

The black thorns not only didn't break, but continued to approach him.

Nara Shikamaru, Temari, and the others' expressions changed drastically.

Scorpion felt somewhat relieved.

He was worried that, like before, the Third Kazekage's attacks would be ineffective.

"The hardness is alright."

Yu Nuzhihui nodded slightly, remaining completely calm.

Group power Gu!

Earth Overlord Gu!

Dragon-Elephant Might Gu!

Galloping horse, mighty and powerful!

Yu Nu Zhihui still threw a punch.

The phantom image of the dragon and elephant's power appeared.

He leaned forward.

The phantom of Ma Li followed closely behind.

The long black thorns broke off directly.

Aburame Shiki accelerated and appeared directly in front of the Third Kazekage in mid-air.

He threw another punch.

The immense power tore the three Kazekage apart.

All the severed limbs and stumps fell off.

To everyone else, it seemed as if Aburame Shiki had only flashed by and then thrown a punch, all in less than a second.

Scorpion's heart trembled violently.

There was anger over the loss of the Third Kazekage, and also the unexpected strength of Shiki Aburame.

This situation is very unfavorable for him now.

His two most powerful puppets are the Third Kazekage and himself.

Now that the Third Kazekage has been lost, it's equivalent to losing half of their fighting strength.

"The Third Kazekage was defeated?"

Maki looked on incredulously.

"That's... insane."

Temari trembled, feeling genuine fear.

That's the Third Kazekage.

He holds the title of the strongest Kazekage!

Kankuro's face turned pale, and he didn't know what to say.

Today, he witnessed the machinations of a puppeteer, which made him realize that he had been living in a well and had a limited perspective.

But now this mountain has been surpassed by Shiki Aburame.

He couldn't help but feel confused.

Even such a powerful puppeteer couldn't defeat Aburame Shiki?

What about him?

I'm afraid I'll never get my revenge in this lifetime.

"As expected of Zhihui."

Nara Shikamaru let out a breath.

The situation is improving!

"You deserve my all."

Scorpion reached out and gently patted his chest.

His body immediately changed.

The abdomen was opened, revealing a retractable steel cable.

Extending to the left and right from the waist, two huge spiral slashes appeared.

It's no exaggeration to say that his entire body was a weapon of deadly poison.

But it was of no use to Yu Nu Zhihui.

Because scorpions cannot break through defenses.

Yu Nuzhihui strode forward.

The steel cable on the scorpion's abdomen suddenly flew out like a sharp arrow, reaching him and then bending and binding him.

The spiral slash behind him rotated forward, its sharp blades forming a meat grinder.

"Is that all?"

Oil Girl Zhihui raised both elbows.

The blade struck it, but it didn't budge an inch.

"Are you... a human, or a puppet?"

Scorpion couldn't help but ask.

He had previously discovered that Aburame Shiki's defenses were astonishing.

But unexpectedly, it was able to block his spiral slash.

It should be noted that the materials he used for himself were the most top-tier in the ninja world.

Even his signature Scarlet Amber Metal Tail couldn't stop the Spiral Slash.

"I am, of course, human."

Aburame Shiki grabbed his steel cable and spiral slash with both hands.

Both of these are connected to the scorpion's body.

Scorpion tried to pull against Aburame Shiki, but found it was completely futile.

His back opened up, and a scroll flew out.

However, Shiki Aburame was one step ahead of him.

White Elephant Yuanli Gu!

A phantom image of a white elephant appeared behind them.

Yu Nuzhihui simply lifted her foot and stomped down.

In his Giant Spirit form, he was much taller than Scorpion.

With a loud bang.

The ground cracked.

Before Scorpion could even get his scroll, he was buried underground.

Yu Nu Zhihui reached out and took the regeneration core from his chest.

Although Scorpion became a human puppet, he was still human at heart.

His soul is hidden in the regeneration core.

The advantage is that the regeneration core can go to any body or puppet, which is equivalent to immortality.

The downside is that if the regenerative nucleus is destroyed, he will die.

Yu Nu Zhihui suddenly had the feeling of Thanos ripping the Mind Stone off Vision's forehead.

The scorpion's body immediately became paralyzed.

Without the regeneration core, his body became an ordinary puppet.

Yu Nu Zhihui, holding the regeneration core, didn't go all out again.

Killing them directly would be a waste.

He just had an idea.

The Crimson Secret Technique: Hundred Machine Manipulation would be great for part-time work.

Hundreds of puppets, without pay, and tireless.

The problem is figuring out how to persuade Scorpion.

But it's not impossible.

In the original work, he deliberately died at the hands of Granny Chiyo, and was later resurrected by Edo Tensei and had his inner conflict resolved by Kankuro.

[Achieve the "I am not a puppet" achievement for Scorpion and receive the reward: Amethyst Relic Gu.]

[Amethyst Relic Gu: A Rank 5 Gu worm, consumable, instantly raises a player's cultivation level by one minor realm, effective only against Rank 5 Gu Masters.]

Oil Girl Zhihui was taken aback.

This is great stuff!

Its main selling point is simplicity and directness.

Without any hesitation, Yu Nu Zhihui used it directly.

He instantly went from the initial stage of a fifth-level Gu Master to the intermediate stage.

As for saving it for later use, there's no need for that.

The Akatsuki organization has already taken action; each additional level means a greater amount of strength.

Just focus on the present.

"Is it over?"

Kankuro asked in a daze.

"The scorpion is dead."

After observing for a moment, Nara Shikamaru spoke.

"It's truly surreal."

"Temari exclaimed in surprise."

"In any case, the crisis has been averted."

Machi lamented in his heart.

It's fine now, but what about later?

If Shiki Aburame doesn't die, Sunagakure will forever remain in his shadow, with no chance of turning the tide.

Snow washes away the poison!

Oil Girl Zhihui waved his hand casually.

Snow-white leaves fell all over them.

The toxins were instantly neutralized.

"Thank you, Hokage-sama!"

Maki quickly stood up and said.

Temari, Kankuro, and the others also expressed their gratitude respectfully.

Yu Nu Zhihui nodded slightly.

The next moment, screams echoed from the sky.

"No!"

Delilah cried out in a daze, "Brother Scorpion!"

Seeing this, Gaara raised his hand and waved it.

The quicksand flew out rapidly and entangled Deidara's arm.

Sand bound coffin!

Blood splattered.

Deidara's right arm was instantly crushed.

The pain brought him back to his senses.

The owl beneath its feet suddenly accelerated, quickly dodging the quicksand that was chasing it.

Deidara covered his arm, looking at Gaara and Shino Aburame.

He's injured now, and Sasori is dead. It's unclear when Akatsuki's reinforcements will arrive.

With the addition of Yu Nu Zhi Hui, he has absolutely no chance of winning.

The only hope is to turn around and run; maybe then we can survive.

But that doesn't fit his personality.

"You're absolutely right."

Deidara laughed, and shouted with all his might, "Art is an explosion!"

All the chakra in his body was mobilized and condensed into a black sphere.

The sphere expanded, causing his body to turn black.

Finally, the sphere shattered, emitting an incomparably dazzling light.

C0 - Self-destruct!

The entire area within a ten-kilometer radius was covered.

A giant cloud of energy, resembling Patrick Star, hovered in the air, enveloping half of Sunagakure.

"What...what is this?"

Kankuro was so frightened that he fell to the ground.

"So big?!"

Maki's face was blank.

Will Sunagakure be completely wiped out?

The remaining Sunagakure ninja were in even worse shape, with panic and despair spreading throughout the village.

Gaara suffered cardiac arrest.

At that moment, he controlled all the quicksand to rush towards the sky above Sunagakure Village.

He even revealed the special sand inside his gourd without reservation.

Empty sand wall!

In the original work, it withstood Deidara's C3-18.

But now it's the even more powerful C0 self-destruct.

"It's Gaara! We still have hope!"

Temari's face lit up with a hint of surprise.

"Defense! Defense! Defense!"

Maki screamed wildly.

The Sand Village ninjas behind them all formed hand seals.

Defensive ninjutsu, such as earthen walls and water walls, rose up one after another.

However, it is still not enough compared to the range of C0 self-destruct.

Gaara's Sand Barrier was a beat too slow, barely managing to cover half of Sunagakure.

Endless light and heat unfolded from there.

Gaara and the others all wore expressions of despair.

Just then, Yu Nu Zhihui raised his hand.

Water Curtain Heavenly Flower Gu!

A giant spherical water shield unfolded, completely covering Sunagakure Village.

"The Hokage?!"

Gaara felt himself come back to life, and with his last bit of chakra, he reinforced the sand wall.

The next moment felt like the end of the world.

In the sky, countless air currents flew about, mixing with chakra to form huge white clouds.

Everything seemed to have evaporated.

"It's...it's blocked!"

Kankuro screamed wildly.

Nara Shikamaru breathed a sigh of relief after surviving the ordeal.

Temari's eyes welled up with tears, and her eyes misted over.

Maki slumped to the ground, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

"We're saved!"

"They actually survived?"

"Great! We're not dead!"

"Thank you, Hokage! Thank you, Kazekage!"

The ninjas and villagers were even more miserable than Temari, and they all wept with joy.

Gaara blocked half of Deidara's self-destruction, while the remaining aftershocks were due to the effect of the Water Curtain Heavenly Flower Gu.

[Achieve Deidara's achievement "This shot is called Goodnight" to receive the reward "Double Success Gu".]

【Double-Up Gu: A fifth-tier Gu worm, specifically designed to assist other Gu worms, providing a five-fold increase in power.】

Oil Girl Zhihui was startled.

This is truly an incredible, heaven-defying curse.

The "Double-Up Gu" amplifies the power of other Gu worms, as the name suggests.

Five transformations result in a fivefold increase.

Moreover, it can be used by all styles.

For example, the force that Shiki Aburame often uses increases fivefold after use.

For example, the Water Curtain Heavenly Flower Gu he just used increased his defense by five times after being amplified.

The only side effect is that it consumes five times the amount of true essence, and it is only applicable to Gu worms at level five and below.

If Aburame Zhihui were to unleash his full power, a single punch would completely deplete his true energy.

But as a trump card, there's absolutely no problem with it.

Four in one.
