Killing his way through the ninja world, starting from being adopted by the second generation!

This not only saves time, but also allows other villages to react.

This strengthens security and increases the difficulty of capture.

"Lord Renya, the closest tailed beast to you is the Seven-Tails of Takigakure Village."

White Zetsu accurately provided the information.

"The Seven-Tails Jinchuriki is getting old, and Takigakure is looking for a new Jinchuriki. Now is the perfect time to make our move!"

"Takigakure Village?"

Mentioning this small ninja village reminded Renya of Kakuzu.

I wonder if that guy has been seriously taking on bounty missions to make money all these years?

He no longer lacks the meager sums he once had.

But it's not about whether I'm short of money or not; it's mainly about enjoying the thrill of robbing.

It's a pity I haven't met Kakuzu all these years, otherwise I could have gotten some of his money.

But it's okay, that guy has the secret technique Earthly Grudge, so he's basically not going to die even with five lives.

They will inevitably meet sooner or later on their journey to capture the Tailed Beasts.

There's no need to rush.

In an underground gold exchange somewhere in the ninja world, Kakuzu, who was checking bounties, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

It felt like being targeted by a prehistoric beast!

He cautiously surveyed the bounty hunters around him, and just to be on the safe side, he suddenly attacked and killed all his fellow bounty hunters.

Kakuzu stared at the severed limbs on the ground, his unease still lingering.

"It seems I shouldn't go out for the time being."

His intuition has always been very accurate, and he has relied on it to get through several crises.

It's always better to be cautious!

Late at night, in Takigaku Village.

On a dark and windy night, people are killing people and setting fires.

A dark figure silently infiltrated Takigakure without being detected by the guarding ninja.

He appeared on the roof of a house, where the moonlight briefly illuminated his attire.

He wore a long black robe and a white swirling mask that only revealed his eyes, which emitted an eerie red glow in the darkness.

It was Lian Ye in disguise.

No, it should be called Uchiha Madara now!

When you're out and about, you should always wear a disguise; otherwise, you'll be in trouble if you accidentally reveal your identity.

His target was clear: the elderly Jinchūriki of the Seven-Tails in the village.

According to the information provided by White Zetsu, due to his old age and declining strength, his control over the tailed beasts is much weaker than before, and he has been strictly protected and isolated by the village.

He has no freedom whatsoever until a new Jinchūriki is found.

"Poor fellow, let me free you."

Anyway, now that Takigakure has found a new Jinchūriki, that old guy is doomed.

It would be better for him to die a worthy death, using his life to appease Uncle Ban.

Lianye's figure rose and fell on the rooftop in a few leaps, his Sharingan's perception allowing him to easily evade all the patrolling ninjas.

They quickly found the courtyard protected by special runes; this courtyard was the residence of the elderly Jinchūriki.

"Got you."

Chapter 452 Give Up the Struggle

As Lian Ye approached the courtyard, four beams of light instantly rose around her, forming a defensive barrier that enveloped the entire courtyard.

"A barrier?"

Although Takigakure Village is not considered powerful, it still has a defensive barrier.

"Intruders, halt!"

Amidst the stern shouts, several figures emerged from the shadows.

They are a guard team responsible for protecting the Jinchūriki, and they are quite strong.

Lianye easily dealt with these small fry.

This makeshift guard team, composed of elite Chunin, couldn't even withstand a single blow.

All I can say is that a small ninja village is just a small ninja village.

Lian Ye broke through the barrier and slowly walked into the courtyard.

In the center of the courtyard, an elderly woman with white hair was lying on a chair, seemingly having long been aware of the arrival of the uninvited guest.

Renya's expression beneath the mask was somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki to be an old woman.

The old lady raised her head, her face covered with wrinkles, but her expression was very calm, without the slightest sign of panic.

She looked at the white-masked man who appeared in the courtyard and spoke calmly.

"Finally... so they've come. They've come for Chongming, haven't they?"

She had a good relationship with the Seven-Tails, so she naturally knew the name of the tailed beast.

Moreover, judging from the clues surrounding the deaths of the Four-Tails and Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, she vaguely guessed that someone in the ninja world was deliberately capturing the Tailed Beasts.

What was originally just a guess now seems to be exactly as she thought.

The mysterious man in front of me is the one who captured the tailed beast.

"You're smart, but you can't change anything."

Lian Ye's voice, coming through the mask, sounded low and hoarse, devoid of any emotion.

"To protect Chongming... at my age, I have no choice but to fight to the death!"

The old woman's eyes were resolute. She formed hand seals, channeling the tailed beast chakra within her to transform into a tailed beast, attempting to fight the mysterious man before her to the death.

However, Lianye did not give her that chance.

"Give up the struggle."

Lianye decisively activated her Mangekyou Sharingan and directly used the eye technique of her left eye.

Directly adjacent to God.

A powerful aura instantly enveloped the old woman.

Countless negative emotions filled her and the Seven-Tails' minds, and the tailed beast chakra they had painstakingly gathered dissipated in an instant.

The only sound in the courtyard was the old woman's muffled groans of pain.

Faced with the powerful eye techniques of the Mangekyou Sharingan, neither the elderly woman nor the Seven-Tails within her had any chance of resistance.

Lianye slowly stepped forward, knocked the old woman unconscious with a karate chop, and picked her up.

He turned and walked out of the courtyard.

The area outside was already surrounded by elite ninjas from Takigakure who had rushed to the scene. Everyone looked at the mysterious masked man who walked out of the courtyard with great vigilance.

"Put down the Jinchūriki!"

"The leader of Takigakure Village said in a cold voice."

Because Kakuzu slaughtered all the high-ranking members of Takigakure, and the secret technique Earth Grudge Fear was also stolen, Takigakure is now facing a generational gap.

The leader is just an elite Jonin.

He stared at the Jinchuriki who had been knocked unconscious in a short time, feeling extremely flustered.

They were worried that the masked man would attack them.

I could only pretend to be calm.

Lian Ye merely glanced at them indifferently, the three tomoe in her eyes slowly rotating.

"Get out of here."

A powerful illusion, accompanied by a chilling killing intent, swept across the area, instantly illuminating the eyes of the front-row ninjas, who stood frozen in place.

The ninjas in the back row were not caught in the genjutsu, but were frightened by the chilling killing intent.

For a moment, no one dared to step forward to stop them.

Lian Ye ignored these rabble; they were just a bunch of worthless scoundrels.

The battle began suddenly and ended even faster.

By the time everyone realized what was happening, Lian Ye had already left with the unconscious old woman.

The leader of Takigakure Village breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the masked man leave.

Although the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki is gone, at least they are still alive, aren't they?

Dozens of meters underground, in a spacious underground cave.

The enormous golem stood silently, its seven eyes tightly closed, yet emanating a suffocatingly oppressive aura.

Madara Uchiha relied on the tubes extending from the Gedo Mazo to sustain his life. He sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, as if he had become one with the Gedo Mazo.

"Lord Ban, good news!"

"This is what Bai Jue, who is in charge of monitoring Lian Ye, said respectfully."

"Renya has successfully captured the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki and is on her way here!"

Upon hearing this, Madara Uchiha slowly opened his eyes. His Rinnegan emitted a faint glow in the dim environment, but his face remained expressionless.

"This kid knows how to time it..."

Today happens to be the last day of the one-month deadline.

However, he didn't care, as long as Lian Ye could complete the task on time.

Before long, Lianye arrived at the underground cave.

"Lord Madara, the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki has been brought."

He placed the unconscious old woman on the ground and said with a look of self-satisfaction.

"Well done, kid," Madara Uchiha said in a deep voice.

As he finished speaking, the Gedo Mazo opened its mouth, from which several chains made of chakra extended, piercing directly through the old woman's body and forcibly pulling out the Seven-Tails from within.

The Gedo Mazo greedily devoured the massive tailed beast's chakra, and the oppressive aura emanating from its enormous body became even more terrifying.

Above the golem, another eye suddenly opened.

At the same time, the old woman on the ground also came to the end of her life.

Madara Uchiha's Rinnegan swept over the corpses on the ground as if they were trash.

His gaze fell on the newly opened eyes of the demonic statue of the heretic, and a hint of satisfaction finally flashed in his eyes.

"Seven tails, recovery complete."

They captured three tailed beasts in just three months, and it's only a matter of time before they can collect all the tailed beasts.

Lian Ye watched this scene quietly, her expression behind the mask unknown.

"Kid, I hope you keep it up. I believe we will soon achieve true peace."

Madara Uchiha looked at Renya with anticipation and described his grand plan.

By collecting all the tailed beasts, the Ten-Tails can be revived, thus bringing true peace to the ninja world.

He had waited for this day for thirty years, and he believed that his dream would soon be realized.

He firmly believed that only the Infinite Tsukuyomi could change the ninja world.

"There are only six tailed beasts left, don't let me down..."
