The Conspiracy Ends! Haido Dies

Upon hearing Haido's words, Timothy's mind exploded with a flood of memories!

Years ago, his village was attacked by bandits.

Kakkō and blood became his eternal childhood trauma!

After that, he met Lord Haido, who aspired to build Land of Plenty.

He believed that Lord Haido was his salvation, the person he would follow for the rest of his life.

Therefore, he has been striving to build Land of Plenty, regarding Lord Haido's words as gospel without question.

At this moment, in Timothy's mind, the image of the culprit who slaughtered the village overlapped with that of Haido.

Timothy was then surprised to discover that the two had remarkably similar builds!

Haido, seeing Timothy's terrified expression, burst into wild laughter.

He had suppressed that laughter for many years.

"You've been doing things for your enemy for so many years, aren't you furious?"

Haido said jokingly.

"Today, I will let you make your final contribution to the Land of Plenty by opening the mine of Gelel Stone with your own blood!"

After saying that, Haido, with the knife pressed against Timothy's neck, thrust it in forcefully...

"Whoosh!"

However, the blade in Haido's hand, which was about to Timothy's neck, suddenly stopped.

He looked up in confusion and saw Shinki's signature red hair!

"Aren't you already dead?!"

Haido asked in alarm.

Shinki reached out and pointed to the spot where his own corpse should have been lying; there was only a pile of wood there.

"It's a pity you're not Ninja, so you don't know what Wood Release: Wood Human Clone is."

Shinki said jokingly.

Haido suppressed his shock.

So what if you're not dead?

"You few don't think you can stop me from opening the Gelel Stone mine, do you?"

He has studied the Gelel Stone over the years and gained immense power that these children cannot match!

No sooner had Haido finished speaking than a lion drawn by Sai rammed into his waist from the side!

With a loud "bang!" Haido, who was completely unprepared, was sent flying.

That's not all.

Naruto had been preparing Rasengan for a while, leaped up and fired Rasengan at Haido in mid-air!

A violent surge of Chakra was unleashed upon Haido!

"Boom!"

This attack sent Haido spinning backward, smashing through several stone pillars in the Ruins!

Shinki looked at the spot where Haido had landed, his eyes narrowing slightly, and said with some surprise, "Huh, he's still alive?"

The next moment, Haido emerged from the smoke and dust!

Under the influence of the Gelel Stone, his pupils turned into crimson vertical pupils, incredibly alluring!

"Splash--"

Haido ripped off the robe he always wore, revealing his mutated, bluish-black skin!

"I told you, you bunch of brats can't beat me!"

Haido looked arrogant.

Grandpa Heyan then approached Shinki cautiously and said, "The Gelel Stone possesses magical power. Why don't we try attacking the stone in his hand first?"

"The Gelel Stone you mentioned, can it bring people back to life?" Shinki suddenly asked.

Grandpa Heyan shook his head. "This... is probably impossible."

"That makes things easier."

Shinki said with a relaxed expression, "As long as he dies, we can win."

The words had barely left his mouth.

"Call!!"

A strong gust of wind blew old man Heyan's hat off!

By the time he realized what was happening and tried to adjust his hat...

The red-haired boy in front of me has vanished!

Ahead.

After a brief hand seal, Shinki charged directly at Haido with his double Piercing Hands.

Haido stared in horror at the lightning clinging to the Shinki's hand.

I feel that if this blow landed on me, the consequences would be severe!

Fortunately, this little Ninja isn't very bright.

"Kids, didn't your teachers teach you that you should have a plan when fighting?"

As Haido spoke, black wings extended from his back.

"Whoosh!!"

His wings expanded, transforming into black, columnar objects of unknown structure, blocking the path of the Shinki!

The Shinki raised its left hand, and lightning Chakra collided with a mysterious substance!!

The standoff lasted less than half a second.

"Click--"

Fine cracks appeared on Haido's wings!

As Shinki progressed, Haido's wings kept breaking!

Soon, Shinki, who possessed the Body Flicker Technique, rushed to Haido's side.

The light from the electric arc reflected Haido's terrified and fearful expression!

"Whoosh!"

With lightning speed, Shinki sent out its two hands, which were covered in lightning and shaped like spears!

"Pfft--!"

Lightning Release Chakra is inherently penetrating, and with the added power of the Shinki Charge, it easily pierced into Haido's reinforced muscles!

Shinki's hands pierced directly through Haido's left and right chests!

Even if Haido's body was enhanced by Gelel Ore.

But with the heart pierced, Rotation!

Seeing Haido's body fall to the ground, Timothy felt as if all his strength had been drained away, and he knelt down.

Grandpa Heyan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and sighed, "That was close. If you hadn't arrived in time, I would have been destroyed along with these Ruins."

"Didn't they say that royal blood was needed to open the treasure vault?"

Naruto asked, puzzled.

Grandpa Heyan chuckled and said, "Of course, but the Formation I instructed Haido on will cause the Ruins to self-destruct once royal blood is injected... This is something sealed by our ancestors, and it must never fall into the hands of outsiders."

Naruto and Sai silently gave the old man a thumbs up. "When it comes to shrewdness and strategy, you're the real deal. ❛‿˂̵✧"

Grandpa Heyan seemed to remember something and then asked, "By the way, since you were able to find this place, you must have already met the caravan members, right?"

Did you rescue them? How are they?

Naruto lowered his head, his eyes dim. "It was too late when we got there. Haido had already massacred the caravan... The entire caravan... suffered heavy casualties."

Grandpa Heyan's pupils trembled violently, and he almost couldn't catch his breath.

With his last breath, he asked, "Then... what about my granddaughter? Did my granddaughter also perish?"

Naruto replied, "No, Shinki saved her life with Medical Ninjutsu. She'll recover after some rest."

For Mr. Heyan, this was a stroke of good luck amidst misfortune.

After hearing Naruto's words, Heyan burst into tears.

"They took me away, saying that if I led them to the mine, they would guarantee the caravan's safety... I never imagined they would be so despicable!"

On the other side, after dealing with Haido, Shinki walked over to Timothy.

He knew that Timothy had been thoroughly fooled by Haido all these years.

What are your plans?

Shinki asked.

Timothy's eyes flickered, his faith crumbled, and he was utterly bewildered.

After looking around, his gaze fell on old man Heyan.

Timothy asked cautiously, "Could I go with the caravan in the future? I'm willing to do odd jobs, even the lowest-paying work..."

Heyan turned to look at Timothy, his eyes clouded and complicated.

Although Timothy was once in league with Haido, indirectly harming the caravan.

But the child was not present when the caravan was killed.

Moreover, he is a descendant of royalty and has gained Nirugu's approval, so there is nothing wrong with him joining the caravan.
