Naruto Reborn: The Rise of the Tsar

Chapter 64 Dune Town

The Kingdom of Wind has the largest land area among the five major countries, but because most of its land is covered by yellow sand, resources are extremely scarce.

Even the surrounding small countries such as the Country of Rain and the Country of Sichuan are more livable.

However, although these small countries are weak in national power, they are indispensable mediators between big countries.

Just like in modern society, there are few direct wars between big powers, but more wars between agents.

At the beginning of the Second Ninja War, the main battlefield was at the junction of the three kingdoms of wind, earth, and fire.

However, as the war progressed, the Fire Country gradually gained the upper hand, and the attitudes of the neutral countries changed rapidly overnight.

The most intuitive impact is that Konoha's elite teams continue to raid the border of Wind Country from Kawa Country, which forces Chiyo, who is mainly responsible for defense, to move the enemy's defense headquarters forward to the 'Wind Castle'.

It is easy to defend but difficult to attack here. It is at the junction of desert terrain and mountain terrain. Although it is slightly desolate, it is easier to hide troops and set up ambushes than in the vast desert.

Less than a day's journey west of the Castle of Winds, a huge civet cat-like figure was slowly moving in the desert.

Shukaku's dissatisfied voice sounded.

"Damn boy, you dare to drive me arbitrarily. I'm really tired of living."

"After being sealed for so many years, didn't you say you wanted to walk around?"

Fukawa lay on Shukaku's shoulder nonchalantly, with a comfortable expression.

Shukaku was speechless for a moment. The moment he was channeled, he thought he was facing an unfamiliar environment and a tough battle. However, after he was channeled again, he was told that his mission was only to accompany him along the way. To relieve boredom?

Use yourself to relieve boredom?
Such incomprehensible words made him forget to scold the other party for a moment, and the hateful guy immediately jumped on his shoulder and never wanted to get up again.

Well, considering that he is strong enough, it's not like he can't suffer a little loss.

In fact, Shukaku is very lively and active at heart, but being trapped in the Jinchuuriki body for a long time caused Shukaku to face this semi-free situation, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

Until it realizes that even if it is lazy and buries itself in the sand and takes a nap, or stirs up a sandstorm from a distance and laughs in the center of the sandstorm, the other party will just stop and watch with interest. Will come forward to disturb.

What a strange person. Shukaku felt as if this guy summoned him just to relieve his boredom.

Over the course of thousands of years, Shukaku has seen countless people, and most of them were frightened when they saw it.

Or maybe there are ambitious people who want to be their own Jinchuuriki.

There are very few people who have the intention to influence themselves like sharing blessings, and I have never seen one like this guy.

He doesn't seem to regard himself as a tailed beast with powerful power. Well, Shukaku admits that this guy's strength is indeed exaggerated. It will probably have to kneel even if the Nine Lamas come. Instead, he regards himself as a Ordinary psychic creatures.

But even ordinary psychic creatures shouldn't be like this, right?
If you can't figure it out, let's forget it. Anyway, whether it was sealed in an ancient temple or sealed in a jinchuriki's body, this is how it came about for so many years.

What Shukaku didn't know was that some distance away from the one-tailed beast, two ninjas from the ANBU of Sunagakure Village were in extreme confusion.

The mission of the two of them, Ben Ali, was just to bring the Black Blade to the front line for reporting. They originally thought it was an extremely simple mission that could even be called a vacation.The Black Blade of Sand's strength is there, and it will be difficult to make any mistakes on the way.

However, the three of them had just left Sunagakure Village for a few dozen miles when Black Blade suggested that it would be too boring for the three of them to travel.

boring?

Do you want to relax in a small town along the way?
There are large and small oases scattered throughout the Kingdom of Wind, and relying on these oases, scattered towns have been formed.

Generally, there are no ninjas stationed in towns. Instead, passing caravans stop to replenish food and water, which in turn gives rise to a unique traveling merchant economy.

Generally speaking, these small towns are often filled with pubs, brothels and casinos, where some ninjas often go to relax on their way back from completing their missions.

But the next moment, the two Anbu ninjas saw Fukawa bite his finger cleanly, and then pressed it down, and huge chakra fluctuations came.

"The art of psychic!"

With a bang, the huge cloud of smoke and dust that covered the sky exploded, and then slowly dissipated.
From then on, the two ANBU ninjas only dared to lead the way far ahead and never dared to come within a mile of Fuchuan.

When I saw Shukaku happily playing with the sand in the distance, creating a storm that filled the sky.

An ANBU ninja finally couldn't help but stepped forward and asked: Are you in a hurry?
The reply I got was, "Then you tell it, it's not me who's holding it back."

Seeing the black blade pointing at Shukaku in the distance as a matter of course, the two ANBU ninjas completely lost their temper.

The original one-week journey consisted of stops and starts, and it took nearly half a month to reach the destination.

In front of you is the town closest to the Wind Castle, called Sand Dune.

When he got here, Fuchuan was a little tired after days of traveling, so he decided to find a hotel, take a comfortable bath and rest before going to report.

Shukaku obediently sank into the quicksand layer deep underground to sleep.

Its current state is very strange. After the psychic spell is lifted, according to Shukaku, it will be transported to a place full of darkness, where time and space will seem to stop.

But unlike other psychic beasts, Shukaku only consumes a large amount of the psychic's chakra at the moment he is channeled, and then is completely separated from the psychic. If the psychic does not take the initiative to remove the psychic spell, Shukaku can move almost completely freely without time restrictions.

Therefore, even if Fukawa does not need Shukaku for a while, he usually will not directly release the psychic spell, but will let him stay underground by himself. Of course, even underground, Shukaku can move freely, but he will be much more hidden. , reducing a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Seeing Shukaku disappearing quickly after diving into the ground, the two ANBU ninjas finally dared to approach Fushikawa.

"Sir, let's rest here tonight. I know a good place. You can go and experience it!"

Fuchuan, who was confused, was encouraged by the two people and walked into a shop that didn't look very conspicuous.

Behind a hillside on the outskirts of the town, a large number of figures were shaking, but the large-scale sealing circle almost eliminated the chakra fluctuations.

Upon closer inspection, these people actually wore Konoha's swirling forehead protectors.
