Cos Wuzan, was stabbed ten times by Heize at the beginning

……

"Grandma Chiyo, it's me!"

Naruto stared at Granny Chiyo, who hadn't changed at all, and shouted at the top of his lungs.

"I know."

Chiyo's calm "three words" immediately startled Naruto.

"I've already died once."

"Reborn, my life and everything I have belong to the Eternal Bliss Church and the God of Bliss!"

Chiyo felt an involuntary surge of reverence for the God of Elysium.

Her past memories still exist, but they have turned gray and lost their color in her mind.

What restored the brilliance to her mind and vision was the power of the God of Bliss!

Looking at Chiyo, who seemed like a completely different person, Naruto opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.

His eyes were filled with fear of the methods used by the Eternal Bliss Cult.

How can a person's mindset be changed in an instant?

Moreover, everyone just witnessed that Granny Chiyo was resurrected after being taken away by Rin, the leader of the Eternal Bliss Cult!

He simply placed his hand on Chiyo's head, and Chiyo came back to life!

Gaara on the ground slowly opened his eyes.

His gaze wandered aimlessly, and he immediately spotted several familiar figures.

"Naruto?"

When Naruto saw Gaara awaken, he was shocked and immediately helped Gaara up.

Gaara's gaze shifted, and he saw Elder Chiyo and the man with rainbow-colored eyes behind her, immediately becoming alert.

However, he quickly discovered the problem: why was Elder Chiyo standing next to Rin, the leader of the Eternal Paradise Cult?

Or is it adopting a protective stance?

"Elder Chiyo?"

Gaara shouted.

Chiyo corrected him, “Kage, I am not Chiyo, the elder of Sunagakure, but Chiyo, the apostle of the Eternal Bliss Cult.”

Chiyo's words made Aira frown. Elder Chiyo had joined the Eternal Bliss Cult?

This sounds utterly absurd!

How did I survive?

Gaara looked at his own hands.

He clearly remembered that one of his tails was extracted by members of the Akatsuki organization.

If the Tailed Beast leaves the body, how could the Jinchuriki still be alive?

"Kazekage, as an elder of Sunagakure, I used a forbidden technique to exchange my life for yours and revive you. But when I was nearing the end of my life, I was resurrected by the God of Bliss and given a new life. So now I have nothing to do with Sunagakure."

Chiyo said with a sigh of relief.

Gaara looked at Naruto.

Naruto nodded heavily.

Although coming back from the dead sounds incredible, it happened twice in a short period of time right before Naruto and the others' eyes.

Gaara and Chiyo both come back to life.

However, one person's resurrection comes at the cost of another's life, while Chiyo's resurrection of Rinzo comes without any cost.

“I could end your lives here, but it would be pointless.”

Rin's gaze swept over the people in front of him.

"Your fate has already been arranged; you are destined to become apostles of the Eternal Bliss Cult. It's only a matter of time."

"The God of Bliss values ​​opportunity, and I obey the will of the God of Bliss."

Rin looked at Neji and said, "Next time, I will welcome you to become the new Angel."

Rin and Chiyo's figures disappeared from the spot.

Neji was stunned as he recalled the words left by the leader of the Eternal Bliss Sect.

A strong hand landed on Neji's shoulder.

The warmth of his palm brought Neji back to his senses.

"Teacher Kai?"

Might Guy's calm eyes held a power that could reassure anyone: "Neji, don't overthink it! Our destiny is in our own hands!"

Lee nodded in agreement, clenching his fist: "Guy-sensei is right! Neji! Let's continue to be my eternal rival! Although that move was powerful, I will defeat you one day..."

Lee kept chattering away in Neji's ear.

What happened in Sunagakure?

Gaara's tone carried a hint of barely perceptible worry.

Naruto glanced at Gaara and decided to reveal the entire current situation of Sunagakure.

Gaara frowned deeply upon hearing this, his eyes filled with profound worry.

He clenched his fist, and as if making a firm decision, he took a step forward, heading towards the direction of the Land of Wind.

Watching his retreating figure, Kakashi calmly said, "It won't be that easy to drive the Eternal Bliss Cult out of Sunagakure..."

Seeing Gaara turn to look at him, Kakashi continued, "At least you can't do it alone. Going back alone would only be suicide and betray Elder Chiyo's sacrifice."

Gaara didn't refute it; he indeed couldn't do it, but he couldn't stand idly by either!

“Sunagakure and Konoha are allies. Currently, the only person in the ninja world who can rival the Eternal Bliss Cult is the Hokage. I suggest that you temporarily return to Konoha with us, meet with the Hokage, and then discuss the matter of reclaiming Sunagakure.”

Kakashi crossed his arms and said to Gaara.

Naruto nodded and advised, "Yes, Gaara! Listen to Kakashi-sensei! The people surrounding Sunagakure are all Uchiha clan ninjas. After they were resurrected, they have immortal bodies, and each of them is extremely powerful! Besides them, there's Muzan and Uchiha Shisui! Neither of them is easy to deal with!"

Gaara looked at Naruto, and it seemed that he had no other choice but to use this method.

"it is good."

Gaara nodded.

"I believe in the Hokage."

Gaara said earnestly.

He stared at Naruto and said, "I believe in you too, Naruto."

A look of emotion shone in Naruto's eyes.

"That's right!"

Naruto suddenly realized something and immediately turned to Kakashi-sensei: "Kakashi-sensei, what about Sakura?"

Kakashi reassured Naruto, "Sakura's infiltration of Sunagakure is perfect for passing on information to us."

"But……"

Naruto was worried about Sakura's safety.

Kakashi couldn't help but say, "Naruto, you don't need to worry about Sakura. Sakura is much stronger than you now!"

Naruto: "..."

Chapter 495 Resisting the Eternal Bliss Cult?

three days later.

Kakashi and his group appeared at the gates of Konoha.

The ninja on duty reached out to stop Kakashi, his gaze sweeping over Gaara before looking at Kakashi with a question in his eyes.

Kakashi explained, "The Kazekage has something to discuss with the Hokage."

The ninja on duty glanced behind him, and then stepped forward to stand beside them, extending his hand to Gaara: "Kazekage-sama, please."

Gaara nodded.

The group headed straight for the Hokage Building.

Although Konoha and Sunagakure are allies, they cannot allow the Kazekage of Sunagakure to move freely in Konoha.

The ninja on duty turned and left only when they reached the entrance of the Hokage's office.

The ANBU ninja entered the office to report, and soon came out, opening the office door and gesturing for Kakashi and the others to come in.

"Lord Hokage."

Gaara strode into the Hokage's office, saw the figure before him, stopped in front of Rei Amamiya, nodded and called out.

"Kazekage-sama."

Rei Amamiya smiled politely and gestured for Gaara to sit down in the chair in front of him.

As soon as Gaara sat down in front of Rei Amamiya, Naruto stepped forward and eagerly told Rei about everything that had happened along the way.

Upon hearing Muzan's name and what had happened in Sunagakure, Rei Amamiya's expression turned grave. After Naruto finished speaking, he told the Anbu ninja, "Go and bring Shikaku and Shikamaru here."

"Yes."

After the ANBU ninjas withdrew, Rei Amamiya looked at Kakashi and the others first: "Are you all alright?"

Kakashi shook his head.

Might Guy scratched his head: "Don't worry, Hokage! None of us are injured!"

Rei Amamiya breathed a sigh of relief. His gaze fell on Gaara, and he explained, "Lord Kazekage, you must know that this concerns the Eternal Paradise Cult. Even as the Hokage, I cannot make a decision on my own."

Gaara nodded in understanding.

While waiting for Shikaku and Shikamaru to arrive, Rei Amamiya allocated two hours of sunshine points each to Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado, and mentally ordered the two to go to the Hokage's office immediately.

Rei Amamiya's gaze fell on Gaara. Sometimes, Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado need to play the good cop.

"Lord Hokage."

Shikaku and his son Shikamaru bowed.

Rei Amamiya raised his hand and said to them, "I called you here because of the Eternal Bliss Cult."

Shikaku frowned slightly, his expression turning serious: "What happened?"

Rei Amamiya told Shikaku about what had happened in Sunagakure.

After hearing this, Shikaku glanced at Gaara and said to Rei Amamiya, "Sunagakure and Konoha are allies. Konoha cannot stand idly by when something like this happens in Sunagakure."

Rei Amamiya nodded and said seriously, "That's right! If the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold. It's only a matter of time before the major ninja villages are targeted by the Eternal Bliss Cult. Now it's Sunagakure, and later it could be Konoha. We absolutely cannot let Sunagakure fall into the hands of the Eternal Bliss Cult."

"Lord Hokage," after Rei Amamiya finished speaking, an Anbu ninja suddenly appeared and reported, "Elder Utatane and Elder Mito have arrived."

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the door to the Hokage's office opened.

Two elderly figures stood at the doorway.

Koharu Utatane glanced around the office, then slowly walked in, nodding to Gaara: "Welcome, Kazekage-sama, to Konoha."

Although Koharu Utatane was smiling, Gaara still keenly sensed the coldness in the eyes of the Konoha elder before him.

"Lord Hokage."

Koharu Utatane stood in front of Rei Amamiya and said earnestly, "The Eternal Bliss Cult, whether it is its leader or its apostles, is exceptionally powerful. I believe the Hokage is aware of this as well."

Rei Amamiya nodded: "I have fought against Rin, the leader of the Eternal Bliss Cult, and his strength is indeed unfathomable."

"Since the Hokage knows this, he shouldn't easily antagonize the Eternal Bliss Cult, otherwise the village will be constantly threatened by the Eternal Bliss Cult."

Koharu's face was full of concern for Konoha.

Her words also made everyone else in the office frown.
