In Konoha, Naruto lies down

"I'll find that person."

After Sasuke left, Kabuto Yakushi, who had been standing there, took a deep breath, as if he had never breathed before. He swallowed and went back into the base.

Sand Hidden Village.

Kakashi, the socialite of the ninja world, rubbed his brows and leaned back in his chair, thinking carefully about the countermeasures. Shikamaru, who was standing beside him, also fell silent after receiving the information he had repeated from Kakashi.

"There's no time. Let's set off tomorrow morning after the ninja dog Parker comes back." said the future sixth generation, Kadono.

Chapter 270 What is the top six, not a human! The ancients said, attacking the heart is the best,

The country of Sichuan.

A couple who had been resurrected by the Impure World Reincarnation led the way, and Naruto, disguised as Sasuke, followed behind, looking guilty. Using the Impure World Reincarnation's parents to sense Scorpion's location was truly a bit of a hell.

But when he thought that he now looked like Sasuke, his back couldn't help but straighten a little.

"The Uchiha's glory is quite useful," he grinned.

Good brothers are meant to be used for harm, and the blame for this kind of immorality can only be put on Sasuke. Anyway, Jizhuzi is also a cruel and ruthless person, so it doesn't matter if there is one more piece of black material about him.

Naruto just wanted to live a leisurely daily life and really didn't want to get involved in the big trouble of digging up people's ancestral graves.

It is worth mentioning that the body of the Third Kazekage, who was known as the strongest Kazekage, could not be found. He should have been made into a puppet in Scorpion's hands.

So much so that he... No, it was the evil Uchiha who only brought back the First and Second Kazekages and Sasori's parents through the Impure World Reincarnation.

As far as I can remember, when the Akatsuki extracted the tailed beast from Gaara's body, only Sasori and Deidara were actually present. The rest of the group gathered remotely through ninjutsu to participate in the ritual of extracting the tailed beast.

It would take three days and three nights to extract the One-Tail, and now it took him almost a day to get there. Counting the time lost on the way from Konoha, subtracting the time it took Scorpion and Deidara to take Gaara away.

It can be roughly concluded that the tailed beast extraction ceremony has roughly begun, or even halfway through.

The good news is: only Scorpion of the Red Sand and Dilada stay in the Kingdom of Rivers.

The bad news is: the remaining members of the Akatsuki organization can use some kind of puppet ninjutsu to descend through the air with 30% of their own chakra. Fortunately, there are only two puppets.

On the other hand, Naruto could only rely on the Impure World Reincarnation to carry the four corpses forward.

Scorpion's parents are a powerful weapon against Scorpion. Naruto is confident that he can use his words to make him let go of his obsession and die early... No, reunite with his parents early.

The First and Second Kazekage only had a fraction of their strength in life, so containing Deidara shouldn't be a problem. He was left to face the two puppets alone, though it was unclear which two members of the Akatsuki organization were controlling them.

If the puppets only possessed 30% of their original chakra, the two together would be equivalent to about half an Akatsuki member. After careful calculation, the advantage was mine.

Moreover, he also has the Impure World Reincarnation, so he will not be short of manpower even in the middle of the battle. He can also summon the Third Kazekage by taking the skin fragments of the Third Kazekage from Scorpion's hand.

If you really can't beat them, ask the summoned beasts for help. The toads in Myoboku Mountain and the slugs in the Wet Bone Forest should be idle.

wonderful.

.......

"Where did Naruto run to?" Shikamaru asked with a frown.

In the desert, Kakashi led the team, and Team 3, Team 10, and Sakura rushed to their final destination, River Country. The journey was long, and they could only hurry and hurry, there was no rush.

"I don't know. He has no direction. He probably went to investigate alone." Shikamaru said during a break.

"Maybe he got lost." Kakashi said casually, leaning against the tree trunk, took out the Intimate Paradise from the ninja tool bag behind his waist, and began to read it slowly.

"It's been a while since I've done such a leisurely mission. We should be able to reach our destination in another day."

"Teacher Kakashi, what tasks have you done during this period of time?" Sakura couldn't help but complain.

"Well..." Kakashi's smile instantly faded, his face pale and depressed, "I haven't had a vacation in a year."

"How pitiful." Shikamaru stood there and sighed instinctively.

"But Mr. Kakashi, you're still single, right? It doesn't seem to matter if you're a little busy." Sakura suddenly spoke to comfort him.

"Is that so...?" Kakashi's expression turned even worse. "I'm so sorry for living in this world. I really want to die."

"Sakura... Sakura, stop talking nonsense!" Tenten hurriedly pulled Sakura away, laughed and comforted Kakashi, "Teacher Kakashi, don't take it to heart."

Ino sat on the ground with a worried look on her face. She took out a water bottle from her waist and drank a sip of water silently, listening to the constant noise around her in silence.

She knew that Naruto didn't need anyone to worry about him. Even Kakashi and Sakura were only shocked for a moment when they learned that Naruto was missing, and then they didn't mention it again.

"Isn't Teacher Kakashi worried about Naruto?" asked Choji again.

"Worried about him?" Kakashi, with his messy white hair on his head, looked up at the sky. "Don't worry, that guy was able to leave the Sand Village under martial law without anyone noticing. He must have his own plans."

"Maybe they're ahead of us now, so we just have to hurry."

Hearing this, Ino felt a little relieved, but her brows were unconsciously furrowed. Just as she was feeling depressed, a white and tender hand quietly approached and suddenly tore off the bandage on her neck.

"Ah!" She looked up suddenly and saw Sakura's smiling eyes, and suddenly felt a little guilty.

"What's wrong?" Ino subconsciously wanted to cover her neck.

"It's okay, I just want to check if there are any wounds on your neck." Sakura said, "Wounds that heal naturally tend to leave scars, so I can help you remove them."

"Should...should not." She stammered.

"Why is your face so red?"

".......hot."

"And I'm sweating."

"Hmm...it's so hot." Ino turned her head away and thought of the ridiculous things behind the glass door again, her heart pounding.

Fortunately, Sakura didn't ask any more questions and turned around to continue talking to Tenten.

Sunagakure.

Kankuro, who had just escaped death, lay in the hospital room, staring blankly at the ceiling. He struggled to sit up until the door was opened.

"Temari? What's the situation?" he asked anxiously.

"The people of Konoha went to find Gaara. The higher-ups meant to guard the borders to prevent neighboring countries from taking advantage of the absence of the Kaze Kage and wantonly entering the Kingdom of Wind."

Temari said with a sigh, standing beside the bed.

"You should take good care of your injuries. As for Gaara's situation, we can only wait for news from Konoha."

"Are you kidding me? What are those elders doing?" Kankuro was so excited that he suddenly coughed up blood and said angrily, "Gaara is the Kage of the village, and now we have to rely on outsiders to save him!"

"I finally understand! Those elders don't even care about Gaara. They just treat Gaara as a tool!"

"Kankuro, calm down." Temari said with a mournful look and lowered eyes.

"How can I stay calm! Gaara fought hard to protect the village, but they treat him like this. It's ridiculous!" Kankuro slammed his head on the hospital bed.

"How could those people from Konoha try their best to save Gaara if they just rely on them?"

Hearing this, Temari's eyes dimmed and she was speechless. In the current situation, she could do nothing. The order from the top had already come down.

Chiyo's words came to her mind, "The so-called allies are just a piece of paper, just for the sake of profit. If Sunagakure really takes it seriously, it would be ridiculous."

After a long pause, Temari spoke.

"Yesterday, the advisor, Chiyo-san, also went there."

"What?" Kankuro was stunned. "You went alone?"

"Well, after those people from Konoha left." Temari said, "They were probably going after Sasori. Maybe Chiyo-chan could save Gaara if she went there."

"Yeah." Kankuro was silent. The only ones standing at the top of the puppeteers were people like Chiyo and Sasori.

If Grandma Chiyo is not capable, then he would be committing suicide if he goes.

Temari actually hadn't said anything more. She felt that the Konoha gang might be able to bring Gaara back. Whether the relationship between Konoha and Sunagakure was really close or not was not the point.

But at least she knew that the three siblings had a good personal relationship with Konoha, and at least they supported the Hokage and Naruto at the critical moment. For this reason alone, the Hokage would not be casual and perfunctory.

Everything is like this, cause and effect cycle.

All she could do now was obey orders and take people to guard the border, hoping that the people from Konoha could bring Gaara back safely. Before that, she had to stabilize the situation for Gaara.

"Kankuro, take good care of your injuries."

Leaving these words, Temari glanced at him and turned to leave the ward.

The country of Sichuan.

Inside the secret base where the Akatsuki had temporarily extracted the tailed beasts, the cave was dim and dark. Two figures and several phantoms stood on the outstretched fingers of a hideous sculpture, working together to extract the tailed beasts.

Gaara's face was filled with pain, his body floating in mid-air, surrounded by colorful energy. Pale red tailed beast chakra was constantly pouring out of his seven orifices.

"The enemy is approaching." Jue said.

"Who is it?" Deidara was stunned for a moment and asked.

The tailed beast Jinchuriki was brought back by him and Sasori. In this cave, only he and Sasori exist in real physical form, while the others use ninjutsu to maintain their spiritual chakra phantom state.

As a result, he was naturally more concerned about the pursuing enemies than others.

"Uchiha Sasuke." Zetsu replied, "And..."

"Uchiha?" Scorpion's gaze turned directly to the shadowy figure of Uchiha Itachi standing there, staring at him with his peripheral vision, "Uchiha Itachi's younger brother?"

"Mr. Itachi's..." Hoshigaki Kisame's expression was somewhat moved.

"Itachi, is it true?" Pain Tiandao asked, his emotion unclear.

"I don't know." Uchiha Itachi looked as indifferent as usual, his expression didn't change at all, and he seemed to not care about that kind of thing at all.

"Since we're old acquaintances, let Kisame go and take a look." Pain Tiandao said, "Use that technique, although it will consume 30% of the chakra."

"Thirty percent of chakra is nothing to me." Kisame smiled, revealing his sharp white teeth.

"That's true." Pain Tiandao said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Jue's voice took over again, and the sound of his voice seemed to have some tricky meaning.

"Besides Uchiha Sasuke, there are four other people who seem to have been resurrected using the Impure World Reincarnation technique. They appear to be the First and Second Kazekage, and... Scorpion's relatives."

Scorpion was stunned. The ugly puppet turned to look in Jue's direction and asked in a hoarse voice.

"What did you say?"

"Immortal Reincarnation?" Pain Tiandao's eyes became sharp, and he glanced at Uchiha Itachi vaguely, "How could Uchiha Sasuke know that forbidden technique?"

Uchiha Itachi pretended not to hear and ignored it without saying a word.

"Since there are two puppets, then let..." Pain Tiandao kept staring at the shadow of Uchiha Itachi, and seemed to have decided to let Uchiha Itachi go and check out the situation.

"Let me go!" Scorpion said coldly.

There was silence in the cave for a while, and after a moment, Pain Tiandao finally let go and spoke.

"Ah."

on the way.

Naruto was riding a horse... no, he was galloping towards them. He galloped past, raising a cloud of dust in his wake.

It wasn't until two rumbling sounds and the appearance of two figures wrapped in black robes and dotted with red clouds forced him to stop. Looking up, he saw two ugly faces revealed in the billowing smoke and dust.

They are Scorpion's puppet body, Kiryuuko, and Hoshigaki Kisame's non-human face.

At this moment, Naruto was still using the appearance of Uchiha Sasuke. He was only stunned for a moment, and then immediately regained his composure. But he did not say anything, and his eyes quietly looked at Scorpion.

Hoshigaki Kisame showed a ferocious smile and shouted at Naruto with contempt.

"Long time no see, Uchiha Sasuke."

Scorpion, hiding in the Feiliuhu, said nothing. Looking at his parents who looked like puppets, he could not hide the anger in his heart.

"You deserve to die!"

Naruto smiled, extremely satisfied with Scorpion's reaction. He silently said to himself, "I am Uchiha Sasuke," and then said disapprovingly.

"is it?"

"But I suggest you get out of that damn puppet, otherwise your parents won't recognize you."

"Looking for death!" Scorpion directly controlled the Feiliuhu to rush out, as fast as lightning, with a huge poisonous stinger erected on his back, and rushed towards Naruto like a poisonous scorpion.

Seeing this, Hoshigaki Kisame also took action directly. He used water jutsu to change the terrain, and the mountains and forests suddenly became a vast ocean.

The First and Second Kazekages rushed towards Hoshigaki Kisame, using Wind Release Ninjutsu to spray the water. Suddenly, the surroundings became dark, as if covered by a torrential rain.

Facing the full force of Scorpion's puppet, Hirugoku, Naruto remained motionless, using his parents to block the attack. He silently threw an invisible Flying Thunder God Kunai, and then just watched him quietly.
