A majestic city can be faintly seen in the distance.
Fugaku said in a deep voice, "They're not going to use the same tactics as when attacking Kirigakure, are they?"
"Certainly."
Haruma replied softly, "Due to the special geographical location of the Land of Water, if a major disturbance occurs, it will take other countries a considerable amount of time to confirm the accurate information."
"The other ninja villages don't have the unique conditions that Kirigakure."
"The strategy of direct, forceful attacks is something only the Kirigakure Village can pull off among the major powers."
"We'll need to plan carefully to deal with Kazekage."
Fugaku nodded in agreement.
If we treat Sunagakure in the same way as before, the news will spread throughout the Shinobi World in just a few days.
The collapse of a major ninja village and the sudden emergence of a mysterious organization.
This will definitely cause the Fourth Shinobi World War to start ahead of schedule.
If a direct attack doesn't work, we have to resort to underhanded tactics.
Fugaku glanced at the two men's attire and was full of confidence in the operation.
After all, when it comes to underhanded tactics, this kid is no less skilled than him!
Sunagakure Street.
Gaara, carrying a tattered gourd, caused pedestrians to scatter wherever he went.
Gaara, who was already used to this, showed no expression, only a cold look on his face.
"Bang!"
The bone projectiles fired from above the roof were blocked by the sand wall that emerged from the gourd!
Fugaku was completely dumbfounded as he watched Haruma leap down from the roof.
He attacked immediately upon seeing a Jinchuriki of a Tailed Beast?
Is this the plan you were talking about?
Exaggerated dark circles under the eyes, indifferent gaze.
Gaara slowly extended his small hand, making a loose grasping motion towards the front.
Gaara's eyes flashed with bloodlust and brutality as he looked at the attacker before him!
" Sand Waterfall!"
Yellow sand swept up from the ground, enveloping the entire Haruma!
"You're getting a bit too aggressive, kid."
With a light laugh, Haruma casually dispersed the incoming sandstorm with a flick of her wrist!
Seeing the kid's somewhat surprised look, Haruma grabbed his neck without hesitation.
Sizzle sizzle
A continuous stream of yellow sand surged from the ground and from the gourd he was carrying!
Without even using Ninjutsu, Haruma completely ignored the defense in front of her.
With sheer physical strength alone, he pierced through layers of sand walls!
Like carrying a kitten or puppy, Haruma grabbed Gaara by the scruff of his neck and leaped onto the roof.
Glancing at the bewildered Fugaku, Haruma shouted "Retreat!" and began running out of the village.
Fugaku, who could already sense the Chakra surge of several Jonin, quickly followed suit!
"Notify Lord Rasa!"
"The rest of you, hurry and give chase!"
As a vessel for the Tailed Beast, it is a strategic weapon of the village.
Gaara's actions were secretly being followed by several ninjas.
It has a protective meaning, but it's more about preventing the Tailed Beast from going berserk due to the container's emotional outburst.
Haruma's actions were too swift, causing the group to be captured before they even had a chance to reveal Jinchūriki!
Amidst the vast expanse of yellow sand, he deliberately slowed his pace on Haruma, leaving the Sunagakure following behind him hanging in the air.
Gaara, who was being held by the neck, looked up at the two people dressed in the same outfit with a blank expression.
The attack of the endless yellow sand never stopped, Gaara also unleashed more than a dozen Ninjutsu in succession, but none of them could harm this person in the slightest.
Chakra was almost exhausted, but he still couldn't break free from the large hand on the back of his neck!
Realizing Gaara, he chose to give up.
At that moment, he actually thought: perhaps leaving Sunagakure was a good option.
He hated everything.
He had absolutely no expectations or... love for the village, his father, or his brothers and sisters.
As he ran, Haruma casually asked Fugaku, "With your Genjutsu combined with the Mangekyō Sharingan, how long would it take you to take down the One-Tail?"
Fugaku's eyes narrowed slightly, and he replied somewhat conservatively, "About three minutes should be enough."
Obito was able to control the Nine-Tails to attack Konoha, so it wouldn't be difficult for Fugaku Kage Level fighter with the Mangekyō Sharingan, to deal with the One-Tail.
Haruma nodded, and suddenly a piece of white bone extended from his palm, striking Gaara on the head.
Despite the endless gusts of yellow sand acting as a defense, it was all in vain.
After all, the difference in strength between Gaara and Haruma is not small.
With a sharp bang, Gaara, still not understanding what was happening, fainted.
Then, Haruma grabbed Gaara with one hand and Fugaku's arm with the other, his figure flashing.
As they rushed out of the village, the hundreds of Sand Shadows who had been following them suddenly lost track of the thieves' location.
Looking at the vast desert, a hint of confusion flashed in their eyes, unsure of which direction to begin their search.
"Scatter in all directions!"
Dressed in a black combat suit, the Fourth Kazekage Rasa, stood solemnly on the sand.
Rasa, who had already arrived at the scene, immediately gave the order and then led two squads of ninjas straight ahead!
From the moment he heard his subordinates report that the Jinchūriki had been kidnapped.
Rasa, who was processing documents, immediately chased after them, whether out of concern for the Tailed Beast going out of control or for his son's safety, it's unclear.
The remaining group looked at each other for a moment, then quickly split into groups and ran off in all directions!
A hundred miles away from the Sand Shadow Ninja, Haruma and his two companions appeared.
With one foot, he lifted the golden Kunai buried under the yellow sand Haruma tucked it into his bosom.
Although it's not real gold, iron is still worth a lot of silver.
The moment Gaara his head and fainted, a massive amount of Chakra, far exceeding that of a Jonin, erupted from this small body!
"It's up to you, Fugaku!"
Haruma tossed Gaara to Fugaku.
As he took over the Jinchūriki, who had already begun to expand into Tailed Beast Transformation, Fugaku's eyes began to flash with a scarlet light.
"Bang!"
A nearly 100-meter-long, earthen-yellow tail slammed against the yellow sand, stirring up a sandstorm!
"Yaha!"
"I'm finally out!"
"Watch me wipe out all of you humans!!"
Its massive, obese body was squealing with excitement!
Gaara's small figure appeared atop the One-Tail's head, with a bright red mark on its forehead.
"Oh no! Shukaku has been released!"
The bodies of the fully-formed Tailed Beast were still visible, despite the great distance between them.
"Speed up!"
With a soft shout, Rasa caused the floating sand to accelerate once again towards Shukaku's location!
The Sand Shadow ninjas who had fallen behind also quickened their pace.
Shukaku, who had just regained his senses, opened his eyes to see two figures, one red-robed and the other black-clad, resembling clones.
"Humans, humans!!"
Seeing the Tailed Beast's consciousness emerge, Fugaku leaped into the air, his scarlet Mangekyō immediately meeting the enormous yellow pupil!
"Watch me kill you all..."
"Kill... kill! Hoo hoo hoo!"
Looking up at the now-calm, engrossed Tailed Beast trapped in the illusion, Haruma praised, "Not bad, old man."
He chuckled and patted Fugaku on the shoulder, "Don't be modest, it only took a few seconds."
"It's not that easy." Fugaku shook his head.
"For now, we're only temporarily immobilizing it; it'll only last for about five minutes at most."
"If you want to extend its duration, or control its movement and destruction, even with the enhancement of illusion, a few seconds is completely insufficient."
Then Fugaku turned to look at Haruma: "But I think you mean to disperse their main force."
"Single-handedly lure the strongest and fastest Rasa to this place first, then deal with this person as quickly as possible."
"Finally, like Danzo, they'll stage a scene in front of everyone, defeating the villains and sealing the Tailed Beast."
Fugaku looked directly at Haruma: "If that's your plan, then I think these few minutes should be enough for you to make your move."
