The Devil of Konoha: Starting as a Medical Ninja

If he wanted to make a move, she would have no way to escape, since their team's mission was to collect the wounded and they didn't have much strength to begin with.

"What you showed me back then seemed to be Uchiha Shisui voluntarily giving up his life..."

Sasuke was taken aback when Obito suddenly asked him to kill Yamanaka Ino. He had just killed the Konoha ninja because he was ambushed. If he were to take action now, wouldn't he be being too beastly?

"You can choose to refuse, but I must remind you that some people never awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan in their entire lives. With your strength, it's no exaggeration to say that Itachi Uchiha could easily take on twenty of you."

Hongzhi looked at Uchiha Sasuke coldly. From a certain perspective, there was no problem with this. After all, Uchiha Itachi was currently in the state of Edo Tensei, and it was an understatement to say that he could easily defeat twenty Uchiha Sasukes.

Sasuke Uchiha shifted his gaze from Hiroji to Ino Yamanaka, seemingly weighing the pros and cons of the matter. Ino Yamanaka, seeing this, wanted to say something, but under Hiroji's pressure, she opened her mouth but couldn't utter a sound.

Although Nara Shikamaru and the others in the distance wanted to save Yamanaka Ino, the existence of the shadow clones was like an insurmountable barrier, and they had no way to break through it.

"hateful!"

Seeing this, Nara Shikamaru spoke with some annoyance. He was indeed smart, but when faced with absolute overwhelming strength, his intelligence was of no use.

All his ideas seemed pale and powerless in the face of someone who could come and go freely in Konoha.

Putting aside the strangeness of the ability, the difference in strength alone is obvious enough. Even ignoring the terrifying ability, their strength is no match for the person in front of them.

"What are you waiting for? To wait for Itachi Uchiha to die of old age? Under normal circumstances, you will indeed live longer than Itachi Uchiha. From a certain perspective, you can convince yourself: I'm not ready to take revenge on him yet, and he's already dead!"

Hongzhi's voice slowly entered Uchiha Sasuke's mind, and upon hearing these words, Uchiha Sasuke's eyes hardened.

Yamanaka Ino shook her head blankly, but what greeted her was a gradually enlarging flash of lightning.

Sasuke Uchiha finally decided to take action, but unfortunately, his target was not Ino Yamanaka, but Hiroji.

After his attack pierced through Hongzhi's body, Sasuke Uchiha's eyes showed obvious surprise, followed by a bolt of lightning that burst out directly from Hongzhi's body.

Before he could regain his balance, Sasuke Uchiha suddenly felt a sharp pain. He lost all feeling in his left hand, followed by his left leg.

An indescribable, excruciating pain shot through his back; Uchiha Sasuke felt as if his lumbar vertebrae had snapped...

As expected, Sasuke Uchiha collapsed to the ground, instantly becoming paralyzed.

"It seems you really want Itachi Uchiha to die of old age."

As Hongzhi spoke casually, a black ink eagle flew out of the woods, followed by a figure falling directly from the sky.

The newcomer was none other than Jiraiya. He was holding a Rasengan, his target clearly Koji's mask. His pose was cool, but it wouldn't affect the final outcome.

He pierced right through Hiroji's body, and the Rasengan in his hand almost landed directly on Yamanaka Ino's face.

If it weren't for Nara Shikamaru's secret technique that allowed Yamanaka Ino to escape, a rather bloody scene would probably have been witnessed.

"You're here because you think someone can keep Onoki in check?"

Hongzhi looked at Jiraiya who had suddenly appeared, his eyes unmoved. It might be interesting to kill him directly.

Chaotic storm raged around Hongzhi. Upon seeing this, Jiraiya immediately took Yamanaka Ino and left. Meanwhile, Uchiha Sasuke, who was lying on the ground, was grabbed by the Ink Eagle and flown away into the distance.

After Jiraiya rescued Yamanaka Ino, he immediately ordered the cockroaches to retreat. After all, staying there would not only be useless, but they might also be killed.

"I have some news for you. The Akatsuki organization, which you've been secretly investigating, has joined forces with Iwagakure. Their aim is to take this opportunity to collect the Tailed Beasts scattered throughout the region..."

Seeing that Sasuke Uchiha was taken away by Konoha, Hiroji lost interest in staying any longer. Sasuke would surely learn of Itachi Uchiha's death once he returned to Konoha.

If he can't open his eyes by then, let him kill Naruto. As for whether Konoha can withstand the pressure from Iwagakure, that depends on Jiraiya's ideas.

If the matter were to be made public, the four great ninja villages would become an alliance, and the pressure would shift to Iwagakure. As for whether the other ninja villages would believe it, that remains to be seen.

It's not particularly important; if they unite, they can suppress Iwagakure. Besides, the One-Tailed Shukaku of Sunagakure was indeed captured by the Akatsuki.

If nothing unexpected happens, it won't be long before the tailed beasts of other ninja villages also suffer, especially those tailed beasts that are not strictly protected within the village.

Hongzhi turned and left immediately, while Jiraiya stood still without making a move. He quietly watched the direction Hongzhi left in, and finally picked up Uchiha Sasuke's left arm and left leg, then got up and returned to the camp.

……

In the Konoha camp, the shadow clone watched as Uchiha Sasuke was carried in, but with obvious seals on his body. His originally calm face gradually broke into a smile.

"Long time no see, Sasuke. I never expected to see you with missing limbs. It does bring back some memories."

The shadow clone casually remarked, while Uchiha Sasuke remained expressionless; he never dreamed he would be brought back directly by Konoha.

Moreover, because he killed a Konoha ninja, he was immediately sealed and will be sent directly to Konoha after he is healed.

This is not good news for Sasuke Uchiha. He hasn't even taken revenge on Itachi Uchiha yet. If he returns to Konoha, he'll probably be locked up right away!

What's the point of seeking revenge then?

Chapter 366 Uchiha Itachi had already

The Shadow Clone Technique healed Sasuke Uchiha very quickly; in just ten minutes, he was fully recovered from his missing limbs.

This was mainly because Jiraiya brought back all the parts that Sasuke Uchiha was missing; otherwise, it wouldn't have taken even ten minutes.

Connecting blood vessels and nerves is somewhat troublesome, but with the regeneration technique, there's no need to consider this at all; it just grows back directly.

After Sasuke Uchiha recovered, he was escorted back to Konoha by several Konoha ninjas. If this guy were left on the front lines, he would not only be useless, but someone would also be needed to keep an eye on him, making him a complete burden.

Accompanying Uchiha Sasuke back to Konoha was the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, specifically the new generation of Ino-Shika-Cho.

Nara Shikamaru, Akimichi Choji, and Yamanaka Ino are basically a unit, but the current situation is that Yamanaka Ino's psychological trauma is too terrifying. If she were to go to the battlefield in the short term, she would be taking the other two with her.

Therefore, they could only be temporarily assigned to relatively easy tasks, although these were not without risks.

After all, sabotaging logistics is a fundamental aspect of ninja battles, but this mission is simpler than being on the front lines.

The eight-person team moved forward slowly. One of them was the sealed Uchiha Sasuke, which was definitely a novel experience for him, since he had never been a prisoner before.

……

In a hidden base of the Akatsuki organization, the Gedo Mazo is greedily devouring the chakra of the One-Tailed Shukaku.

This process has lasted for more than two days, but it still hasn't completely drained the chakra of Shukaku, which is enough to show how terrifying the chakra of the tailed beasts is.

This also proves from another angle that Nagato was not the master of the Rinnegan. After all, if the Rinnegan were to extract the chakra of a tailed beast, it would most likely create a purple chakra chain, roughly pull out the One-Tailed Shukaku, and then seal it.

There's no need for such trouble. The ones coming from Hongzhi's side are still shadow clones, so they can't stay in one place for three or four days. It would be very boring for Hongzhi.

As dusk fell, no more red chakra could be extracted from Gaara's body, which meant that Shukaku's chakra had been completely extracted, and Shukaku's own will had fallen asleep within the Gedo Mazo.

"It's finally over. It was such an exhausting experience..."

Dida shrugged and complained helplessly. Here, only he and Sasori were the real bodies; everyone else was just a clone of the Illusionary Body.

“The Sand Village has no intention of pursuing us, so you can rest here for a while longer.”

Nagato controlled Pain to speak calmly. Although the Akatsuki's intelligence was no longer the same as when White Zetsu existed, it was still quite simple to find out if Sunagakure was conducting a large-scale pursuit.

"This is good news."

Deidara leaned back on a nearby rock, speaking lazily. He had just finished the battle in Sunagakure and was now immediately beginning to seal the Tailed Beasts, which was a considerable strain on him.

Pain remained silent as Nagato controlled him to vanish from the spot. With this, the Illusionary Body Technique was dispelled in quick succession, leaving only Deidara and Sasori behind.

Even the demonic statue of the Outer Path, which had just eaten and drunk its fill, simply merged into the ground and disappeared.

"Brother Scorpion, although that guy isn't very strong, he should be fine as a puppet."

Deidara looked at Gaara lying lifeless on the ground and spoke calmly, after all, Sasori's puppet was destroyed when he fought Obito Uchiha.

"He is dead and cannot become eternal art."

Sasori glanced at Gaara and shook his head; Hiruko's puppet remained motionless.

Seeing this, Deidara also began to rest. There was a barrier outside the base, and if anyone tried to enter, the commotion would be extremely loud. They had plenty of time to wake up and take precautions.

Silence fell over the base. Just then, a dark vortex appeared, and Hongzhi walked out of it.

Seeing the art troupe resting, Hiroji took Gaara away. After leaving enough blood for the Impure World Reincarnation, Hiroji went directly to the Kazekage's office in Sunagakure, threw Gaara to the ground, and disappeared from the spot.

Hearing the noise, Granny Chiyo and Ebizo cautiously opened the door, only to find Gaara still warm inside.

"This……"

Granny Chiyo was somewhat taken aback. Who on earth was it that they sent Gaara back after killing him?

"What should we do now?"

Ebizo asked calmly, "Gaara is dead, and Shukaku is definitely gone. Now that things have come to this, they must be going to do something."

"Do you think he could become an excellent ninja after losing his tailed beast?"

Granny Chiyo looked at Gaara and said somewhat absentmindedly, "The future of Sunagakure is basically over. They can't wait for the next generation to grow up."

"Sister, you can't be..."

Ebizo stared at Granny Chiyo in astonishment, seemingly trying to confirm something, but ultimately received only a disapproving look. It was quite easy for the forbidden techniques of Sunagakure to revive someone.

It's simply a matter of exchanging one person's life for it. And since Sunagakure has just been attacked, there are still many people who are seriously injured and on the verge of death. If someone is willing, they can bring Gaara back to life.

……

In the Hidden Leaf Village, in the Anbu prison, Tsunade saw Sasuke Uchiha completely bound before her, and her feelings were complicated. This was based on the information sent by Jiraiya from the front line and the firsthand testimony of Nara Shikamaru and others.

Sasuke Uchiha killed at least one Konoha ninja. If he hadn't been tempted by Obito Uchiha and hadn't chosen not to attack Ino Yamanaka, he would have been killed by Jiraiya long ago.

"why?"

Tsunade asked calmly, wanting to know why Uchiha Sasuke attacked the Konoha ninja!

"For revenge!"

Sasuke Uchiha roared in response. He was trapped here, and revenge was basically hopeless. Now, all he could do was go crazy like this.

"revenge?!"

Upon hearing this, Tsunade suddenly became alert. Knowing exactly what happened on the night of the massacre, she was still somewhat troubled by Sasuke's words. To put it bluntly, this was the fault of the previous generation of high-ranking officials.

"It was Itachi Uchiha and Obito Uchiha who massacred the Uchiha clan, so why are you attacking Konoha ninjas?"

After a moment of silence, Tsunade tentatively asked, "Uchiha Sasuke is involved in all things in the universe. He is our last hope, so naturally we need to try and see if we can successfully deceive him."

"He struck first!"

Finally understanding what Tsunade had asked at the beginning, Sasuke Uchiha spoke in astonishment. Otherwise, how could he have attacked directly!

"Unfortunately, no one can prove it... and Itachi Uchiha is already dead..."
