Chapter 58
His face showed a series of expressions of horror!
"I underestimated the Third Kazekage; I never expected him to fight Liuyun to this extent!"
"Lord Sakumo! I've sensed it. The Chakra fluctuations around the Sand Ninja are only... less than 20!"
The Yamanaka Clan Ninja's eyes were filled with shock, and even his body trembled unconsciously as he spoke.
"What? You're not mistaken? Does that mean the entire Sand Ninja army was wiped out by Liuyun alone?"
Jiraiya's eyes widened, his face showing undisguised horror.
"Lord Jiraiya! He's right! My Byakugan only detected the Chakra of about a dozen people ahead!"
The Hyuga Clan' veins bulged, and their tone was one of utter shock.
"Hmph! Why are you so shocked? Sit down! Sit down! It's nothing, it's nothing! This is how my disciples should act!"
Tsunade was no longer flustered. She raised her fair neck like a proud rooster, extremely pleased with herself.
Everyone's lips twitched. Please, that's your disciple, not you...
When did Lady Tsunade become so good at pretending?!
Is this the legendary saying, "One who stays near vermilion gets stained red, and one who stays near ink gets stained black"?
But when I think about how I also have such an amazing disciple, perhaps even more amazing than Lady Tsunade!
To be honest, everyone in Konoha was envious. If they had such an outstanding disciple, they would be willing to give up 10 years of their lives!
Everyone was envious, Jiraiya, but what he was envious of was that Tsunade had sacrificed herself for this disciple.
He knew there was no future for him and Tsunade, and he deeply regretted not having recruited Liuyun under his command.
This way, he not only gained a disciple who could easily defeat the Third Kazekage, but he could also continue pursuing Tsunade.
It would have been a win-win situation, but unfortunately, all of that is now impossible due to his initial refusal.
"Look! The smoke has cleared up!" Nara Beigen pointed and shouted, drawing everyone's attention back to reality.
On the field!
The dense dust gradually dissipated, and the piercing noises inside ceased.
In the distance, one can vaguely see a huge, towering figure standing between heaven and earth.
As time passed, the last dust settled, and the scene inside became clearly visible to everyone.
The purple giant shield had now transformed into Ice giant shield.
A black dot appeared at the center of the giant shield, and a fine crack appeared next to the black dot.
Although the giant shield was cracked, it remained intact overall.
In contrast, the iron sand pyramid on the opposite side vanished without a trace.
"Run!"
The Third Kazekage, looking weak, roared at the remaining Sand Ninja around him.
At that moment, a massive wave of Ice swept in, transforming into a white rope that tightly bound the Third Kazekage.
Just as Ebizo was about to reach out, a sudden tremor shook the ground beneath his feet, and waves of Ice swept towards him.
Without Ebizo's resistance, Liuyun had a thought, and the Ice ropes binding the Third Kazekage immediately floated in front of his forehead.
The Third Kazekage smiled bitterly, never expecting that he would ultimately be defeated by a mere child.
If I hadn't almost exhausted all my Chakra with that move, I wouldn't have been so easily entangled by those Ice ropes.
"Release the Third Kazekage!"
Not far away, Chiyo let out a loud roar, her wrinkled old face full of anxiety.
As he spoke, his ten fingers flashed, Ten Puppets of Chikamatsu once again charged towards Liuyun.
Seeing the ten tiny figures not far away, the purple spear swept across in a single motion!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Snap! Snap!
The ten puppets that Chiyo was so proud of were instantly covered in cracks.
Another hit would probably shatter it completely.
Upon Chiyo quickly retrieved her puppet, her old face filled with deep heartache.
"Liuyun! Our Land of Wind concedes defeat in this battle! Please, you must not harm our Third Kazekage!"
When force failed, Chiyo immediately begged for mercy.
Regardless, the Third Kazekage was the Kazekage of their village and the strongest of all the Kazekage in history.
If they were really killed by Liuyun, their Land of Wind would lose face throughout the entire Shinobi World.
The ambitious Third Kazekage wanted to cause a major upheaval, thus igniting the Second Shinobi World War.
As a result, he was killed by a ten-year-old child from Konoha not long after the battle began!
Chiyo had already imagined how the Shinobi World would evaluate the Third Kazekage in the future.
"Lord Kazekage!"
The surviving Sand Ninja, seeing that the situation was under control, rushed to Chiyo's side and roared with grim expressions.
"What do you mean, Third Kazekage!" Liuyun smiled calmly, unconcerned.
"The victor is king, the loser is villain! It's up to you!"
The Third Kazekage tilted his head back, closed his eyes, and looked as if he were waiting to die.
Whoosh!
Three masked Root appeared before Liuyun.
His tone was cold and devoid of any emotion.
"Uchiha Liuyun, Lord Danzo has ordered you to hand over the Third Kazekage to us!"
"Our Root will negotiate directly with the Land of Wind!"
"Are you from the Root?" Liuyun asked expressionlessly.
"Excellent! Please hand over the Third Kazekage to us!"
The Root spoke again, his tone carrying a hint of command.
"Fine! Fine! Fine! You're the first people to dare talk to me like that."
Liuyun sneered, his tone ferocious and arrogant, his anger raging.
"And what about Danzo, that rat in the sewer?"
Before the three could speak again, Liuyun Sharingan spun once more, and a powerful spiritual aura emanated from his body.
(Robbery! Hand over your flowers!)
Chapter 88 Sakumo Hatake: I didn't see anything! (4th update!)
The three Root Ninja opposite him immediately stared blankly.
Amidst the surging Ice, three lifelike Ice Statue appeared out of thin air.
The ice waves crashed against the three Ice Sculpture, shattering them into pieces that scattered on the ground.
Chiyo, Ebizo, and the other Sand Ninja were dumbfounded by what they saw.
What the hell is going on? Konoha is openly and legitimately killing each other?
Chiyo had assumed that once she arrived at Root, Liuyun would hand over the Third Kazekage to them.
Based on her understanding of Danzo, the Third Kazekage's safety was definitely not a problem.
But the current situation is completely beyond their imagination.
"Hmph! You old dog Danzo, one day I'll twist your neck off!" Liuyun's cold snort came from inside.
Chiyo and the others felt like they'd stumbled upon a major scandal. Had the internal power struggles within Konoha reached such a point of irreconcilable conflict?
"Uchiha Liuyun! We, the Sand Ninja, concede defeat in this war. And as we said before, we hope you won't harm our Kazekage!"
Now is not the time to think about internal power struggles within Konoha; the safety of our own Kazekage is of paramount importance.
"Ebizo, do you still remember the Uchiha Clan girl you were hunting?"
Liuyun didn't answer Chiyo, but instead asked Ebizo a question.
As one of the Sand Ninja elders, although her mind wasn't as quick as Chiyo's, it wasn't bad either.
In an instant, I realized why Uchiha Liuyun had attacked the Sand Ninja today.
A cold front swept through the air, but Ebizo's forehead was covered in sweat.
Not only Ebizo remembered, but the other Sand Ninja also remembered.
After all, Ebizo had boasted to them quite a bit about today's results.
"You remember now?" A detached voice came from inside.
Suddenly, Liuyun frowned, cursing inwardly, "Damn it, looks like I have no choice but to use it!"
He took out a recovery potion from his System Inventory and drank it all in one gulp.
Feeling his body rapidly recovering from fatigue and Chakra, Liuyun sighed, "As expected of a product of the system."
"I'm willing to die! I'll trade my life for the Third Kazekage, what do you say?"
Ebizo his teeth, his eyes filled with determination.
Between himself and the Third Kazekage, even a fool knows which is more important.
"Do you know who that little girl you're chasing is?" a chilling voice came from inside.
Before Ebizo and the others could speak, Liuyun continued.
"She was my childhood sweetheart, and I've always considered her my wife!"
Ebizo, Chiyo, and the others looked even more grim.
Ebizo was filled with regret.
If I had known that woman was your wife, I would never have dared to make a move on her.
"I won't kill you! But!" Liuyun paused, his voice carrying a hint of malice.
At this moment, Chiyo and the others' hearts were already pounding with Liuyun's words. As Liuyun made his unexpected turn, a very ominous feeling arose in their hearts.
As expected, Liuyun's next sentence caused their expressions to change drastically.
"But! I will make you live in eternal repentance, because of you, your Third Kazekage died by my hand!"
Before Liuyun and the Chiyo could speak, Liu Yun's Ice rope transformed into a sharp ice blade.
Pfft!
The sharp ice blade sliced Third Kazekage's head in two!
The incision was clean and smooth, with wisps of Ice enveloping the wound, causing the Third Kazekage's head to be severed.
But not a drop of blood flowed out.
As the Third Kazekage's head flew out, Chiyo, Ebizo, and the other surviving Sand Ninja were completely stunned.
"U... Uchiha!... Uchiha Liuyun, how dare you!"
Chiyo's face twisted in pain, a chilling killing intent instantly sweeping through the surroundings, her eyes turning bloodshot.
His resentful eyes seemed to want to tear Liuyun to pieces.
Thump!
He casually tossed the Third Kazekage's corpse in front of Chiyo.
Liuyun's tone was icy and disdainful, "What? You still want to fight me? Think it over before you act!"
Chiyo, who had been blinded by rage, quickly regained her senses, looked down at the corpse of the Third Kazekage, and remained silent.
The same applies to the other Sand Ninja. The Third Kazekage is already dead, and if the fight continues, they will likely be the ones who die.
