The Red Moon of Konoha

Chapter 217 Hunting, start!
In the 60th year of the Konoha calendar, in September, Uchiha Ryuki rebelled and attacked Konoha.

This matter is not big or small.

It seems that there were not too many casualties. Konoha successfully resisted Uchiha Ryuki's attack of rebellious ninja and repelled it. However, anyone with a discerning eye understands that this is just the beginning. In the cycle of reincarnation, after more than ten years of peace, there will be a war that will last for an unknown period of time.

During World War Three,
Cloud Ninja and Iwa Ninja formed a deep feud, and the third Raikage died because of Iwa Ninja. Such a shame cannot be washed away without the blood of Iwa Ninja.

However, Rock Ninja deeply hated Mist Ninja and Sand Ninja who took advantage of the fire.

Both Sand Ninja and Mist Ninja are jealous of Konoha, the biggest winner. Sand Ninja longs for a piece of fertile land, and Mist Ninja has also worked hard for more than ten years, and began to seek to land on the mainland.

The smoke of war has never been extinguished, and the remaining sparks will ignite this dry forest sooner or later.

Time goes by, I don't know day and night,

Konoha calendar, 62 years.

"Shayin Village, why does it look like a turtle shell?"

"This is a natural danger, such a strong wall, even if it is a master of rock ninja, don't even think about destroying it easily. Although it may not be meaningful in practice, at least it can calm the minds of ordinary people, and this thing can be prevented to a certain extent. Wind and sand... In short, things that can survive must have their uses."

Just under the strong wall outside Sand Hidden Village.

Two women in snow-white cloaks suddenly appeared here.

"I see!"

The purple-haired woman next to her nodded.

It's just that the blond woman next to her knew that her companion probably didn't listen to what she said, but the words she said were indeed meaningless. For people like them, this kind of knowledge is far less than a pain Nothing comes in handy.

After all, it's just nonsense.

right now,

It's not time to gossip, you have to hurry up and get down to business.

"Let's go! Go in."

The blond woman tightened the snow-white cloak, and slowly poured Chakra into the cloak, and then under the protection of the cloak that suddenly came alive and wrapped her tightly, she melted into it like a drop of water in the sea. into the yellow sand.

The purple-haired woman did the same thing, and followed her companions into the yellow sand, sneaking into the hidden sand village.

On the steep wall, the sand ninjas who patrol are unaware of this, staring at the desolate sand dunes in the distance day after day. People who come to the hidden sand village will take the right path at the gate of the village, and there are very few guys who don’t have long eyes I will come around here, the sand ninja on duty has been working for almost ten years, and has caught people who appeared in sight three times.

One of them was a merchant lost in a storm, and the other two were slightly dumb spies.

And today,
In the eyes of the patrolling sand ninjas, it was just another ordinary day, no different from yesterday, and probably no different from tomorrow.

"Ichio Jinchuriki... I heard that he is the son of the Fourth Kazekage, how could he live in such a remote place alone?"

"Probably, it's because he's Ichinjuriki!"

I came to the corner of Shayin Village, far away from the most prosperous village center. This is the southwest corner, and there are only a few old houses that are almost deserted. However, according to the information collected in advance, this is indeed the person who has not left the village for more than a year. One tail Jinchuriki's residence.

"It's here."

The blond woman calmly came out of the ground and came to a dilapidated house.

She stands at the gate.

Before she could make a move, the howling quicksand surged out like a surging wave, completely shattering the tattered door, and rushed towards the blonde woman.

"Really!"

Facing this violent attack.

The blond woman didn't panic, but just sighed helplessly. As expected, Jinjuriki are violent guys, just like the grumpy old man who was imprisoned in the cell. It's been almost ten years, and he still has the strength to swear in there. .

Quicksand rises and falls.

I threw it all away.

The blond woman moved silently to the roof of the old house.

Then--

"Who are you?"

Hearing the cold, ice-like voice from behind, the blond woman turned around slowly, and saw a young man standing on top of a cloud of floating sand, with a sand gourd on his back, and bright red hair , the same crimson 'love' on the forehead, all prove that this is the goal of their trip.

One tail Jinchuriki, Gaara.

"Empty Night Palace, No.40 Blade——Akashi."

The blond woman deliberately slowed down her speech, showing her identity.

"Kyoya Palace... I've heard of you. You are Uchiha Ryuki's subordinates, right? Konoha and Sand Shinobi have been searching for your whereabouts for the past two years." Gaara's tone was incomparable Indifferent, even mentioning Sand Shinobi seems to be talking about irrelevant people.

"You appeared in front of me... It seems that the news that Konoha said that you are going to hunt tailed beasts is true?"

Still the same cold tone.

Even when it comes to himself, there is no change in the same indifference.

"That's right, I came to Shayin Village this time to take you back to Xuye Palace." Akashi nodded lightly, not hiding his intention.

"Am I the first?"

Gaara continued to ask.

"Yes."

"Why am I the first? Because I'm the best of all the juriki?"

"No, it's because one tail is sealed in your body. From one tail to nine tails, they come in order, not based on strength." Akashi answered every question, and explained in detail .

"By size?"

Gaara was taken aback.

This reason is surprisingly interesting.

but,

It doesn't matter anymore, for him, any reason is fine.

"In that case, let's go!"

"Ok?"

Akashi, who had already prepared for a fierce fight, was stunned.

She looked at Gaara standing on the sand cloud, as if she saw a ghost, this is... this script is wrong!It shouldn't be leaving now to fight a fierce battle. She expended a lot of energy to defeat the opponent before the sand ninja army came to help, and then left calmly with the results.

Instead of being so bewildered and overwhelmed like now.

"You said... go? Aren't you going to resist?" Akashi asked subconsciously.

"Resist?"

Gaara muttered this word, his face still indifferent, "Is it useful to resist? Since you can appear in front of me without disturbing the defense of sand ninjas, I am afraid that you are sure enough to capture me? Besides, I have nothing A reason to resist!"

At last, he hung his head.

The scorching red hair was incomparably bright, but the gloomy temperament on his body completely covered up the vigor that young people should have.

"My father is ready to dispose of me."

"I'm a failure."

"So, even if you don't come to me, I don't think I will live long."

Hearing Gaara's words, Akashi was silent for a moment.

Renzhuli!

She is from Mist Ninja.

Knowing that Jinchuriki is not popular in various ninja villages, even the three-tailed Jinchuriki, who has become the fourth Mizukage, lost his citrus and was born in the citrus family. discriminated against,

It's just that there are not many who are as cruel as sand ninja.

after all,

Taking his own son as Renzhuriki, and killing him when he found that he could not meet the needs of the village, even Akashi, who was born as a rebellious ninja, felt a little cruel.

"Are you really ready?"

Akashi looked at Gaara, "Go to Xuye Palace with me, you will die."

"It doesn't matter, the left and right are dead." Gaara said calmly, and Akashi couldn't help but fall silent with the look in his eyes that had already looked down on his own life and death.

"...Nai Nai, stop playing and go back."

Akashi shouted.

Nanami, who was killing a group of sand ninjas who were monitoring Gaara, licked her lips regretfully. She had to give the group of sand ninjas a good time, and then rushed to Akashi's side, looking at Gaara and Gaara with strange eyes. Akashi, "Sister Akashi, this is..."

"Don't ask, I will report it to Lord Nagarjuna when I go back."

Akashi didn't intend to explain the same thing multiple times.

She stretched out her hand, poured Chakra into the ring with the "four" imprint, and slowly opened the door to Xuye Palace.

"go in!"

Akashi stretched out his thumb, and tapped the jet-black hollow vortex.

Gaara stared at the dim void for three seconds.

The sand cloud carrying Gaara broke in neatly, followed by Akashi and Nanami, and waited until the dark hollow vortex disappeared, and there was no breath of living people on the land located in the remote corner of Sand Hidden Village. Only a pile of surviving corpses left on the ground in front of the old house welcomed the high-ranking sand ninjas who rushed over.

"damn it!"

"Who is it?"

The Fourth Kazekage Rasa was furious like a thunder.

One tail Jinchuriki is gone.

If it's just that his son is gone, he might not be so sad, but Ichibi... that thing is the lifeblood of sand ninja!Unlike other villages who only use tailed beasts as a strategic weapon, a tail is still the best research material for sand ninjas.

Magnetic Escape·Sand Art was developed according to Kazuo's ability.

If other villages get a tail, such as Yunin who also has the limit of magnetic escape and blood inheritance, maybe they will discover the secret of the art of sand.

This is more unbearable than the death of his sons.

Not to mention how Luo Sha, the fourth generation Kazekage's ability is compared to the predecessors, but the painstaking efforts he has devoted to Sha Yin Village are real. He violated his wife's wishes and did not give his youngest son any kindness. The price of sealing Yiwei this monster in the body of the youngest son is not insignificant.

The most regrettable thing is here.

There are too many things in the world that put in effort and effort but still get nothing in return.

No matter how hard Luo Sha tried.

There are still many people who miss the third Kazekage who died for no reason, and indulge in the glory of the strongest Kazekage... Even though, the strongest Kazekage did not leave anything worth letting go The achievement that people are proud of is nothing more than suppressing the so-called demigod Hanzo in the Second Ninja World War, repelling the unstoppable Konoha Shirato, and allowing Sand Ninja to withdraw from that war with dignity.

Although this is indeed a very powerful record.

Compared with inheriting the position of the fourth generation, but only watching Uchiha Ryuki showing off his might at the gate of the village, Rasa really wants to withdraw from the ninja war with more dignity.

But isn't Sand Shinobu still lost?
That is to say, losing looks a little better.

The predicament of sand ninja has not changed in any way in the management of the third generation. The barren land of the land of the wind has restricted the development of the population. In fact, the so-called elite soldier policy of sand hidden village is largely because it cannot support too many and is not productive. The ninjas can only be forced to promote the policy of elite soldiers.

When Luo Sha took over the mess of Sha Yin Village.

He, Kazekage, was even forced to use sand techniques to pan for gold in the desert, so as to make up for the financial gap in the village.

"Have you found anything?"

Looking at the subordinates returning from all directions, Luo Sha asked in a deep voice.

He's a sentient ninja himself.

But just to be on the safe side, he asked the perception ninjas to search the surrounding area carefully, hoping to get useful clues, but the result was still disappointing. The perception ninjas did not find any clues of someone sneaking in.

"waste!"

Luo Sha gritted her teeth and cursed.

A group of sand ninjas lowered their heads and did not dare to argue with Kazekage-sama.

Luo Sha stopped looking at this group of trash, and turned his gaze to Zheng half kneeling on the ground, trying to read useful information from the brain of the dead sand ninja.

waited a long time,

Only then did the elites from the interrogation department let go of the palms that were gripping the heads one after another, and they all let out a long sigh of relief.

Investigate the brains of the dead.

This is no easy job.

"Is there any result?" Luo Sha, who had already run out of patience, asked immediately, ignoring their hard work.

Fortunately, the quality of these criminal interrogation experts is indeed very high, and they immediately reported the information they detected to the uneasy-looking Kazekage-sama. The adults stopped the chattering questioning.

"The murderer is wearing a white dress..... purple wavy braids..... there are teardrop marks on his face..."

Luo Sha slowly frowned.

this adjective.

It reminded him of the information that Konoha shared with them for free.

That's information about Xuye Palace, a special combination called Ten Blades, and one of them looks similar to what the subordinates said.

Two years ago,
Konoha issued a warning saying that Uchiha Tatsuya was conspiring against the Nine Tailed Beasts, and asked them to be more vigilant against Uchiha Tatsuya. Luo Sha was indeed cautious for a while at the time, and would rather believe it or not, let alone be more vigilant, Nothing bad will happen.

But over time.

Uchiha Nagaru didn't move at all.

This vigilance gradually relaxed.

And in recent days, Gaara ran away many times, and the criticism in the village became more and more serious. Luo Sha had to drive Gaara to such a corner in a remote place, and began to look for a new renju force container. Prepare to change a shell for one tail.

As a result, before he could make a move, one tail... was lost.

Another thing Luo Sha couldn't figure out was, how could Gaara be arrested in such a short time?Even though he didn't like this son who didn't live up to his expectations, his strength wasn't too weak. How could he not be subdued so easily?

In addition to the traces of the slaughter of this group of sand ninjas, only the broken wooden door was smashed by quicksand, and no other traces of battle were found.

Of course, these are still in the second place.

What makes Luo Sha angry the most is that he doesn't know how to get back the lost one tail, how the enemy invaded, how to subdue Gaara, and how to leave. end of the matter.

"Kyoya Palace... Uchiha Ryuki!!!"

The Fourth Kazekage let out an angry roar.
