Chapter 213: Eat Your Puppet if You can’t Get Any Results!
This was the first time Nagato took a battle seriously.
In the past, whenever Akatsuki organized a group mission. Nagato always casually released a few laser cannons for support. Everyone thought that Nagato was a long-range support type Ninja.
Today, Nagato took the initiative to show his skills. He showed a fighting strength far beyond others. In just a few seconds, he had beaten Kakashi, who had hundreds of tricks, to the point where he could not fight back. Now, Kakashi could only lie on the ground like a dead dog and spit blood.
Nagato looked down at Kakashi on the ground and said coldly, “Someone once said that the Copy Ninja of Konoha, Kakashi, is a Ninja who can fight against any enemy… Now it seems that I can’t help but reduce my expectations.”
Kakashi, the Copy Ninja of Konoha.
No matter how strong the enemy was, Kakashi would not fight poorly, and he could even find a chance to win. If the enemy were weak, Kakashi would fight very poorly, and he might even fail miserably in an easy task.
These were all things that Uehara told Nagato.
When he suddenly heard this, Nagato felt that this was too ridiculous.
However, Uehara said it so confidently. Nagato could only unconditionally choose to believe Uehara. He had high expectations of Kakashi. He wanted to see the strength of an enemy who Uehara praised.
Now, it seemed that there was nothing worth paying attention to.
“Kakashi-sensei!”
In the distance, Naruto was the first to rush towards Kakashi. He raised his fingers and began to form hand seals, “Tajū Kage Bunshin no Jutsu(Multiple Shadow Clone Technique)!”
Countless Naruto clones appeared densely in the forest, rushing in the direction of Nagato and Sasori!
“Shurado (Asura Path)!”
Nagato quickly summoned two mechanical arms. The two arms instantly turned into two terrifying multi-barreled machine guns, shooting a pile of bullets at Naruto’s shadow clone!
Da da da da da!
One shadow clone after another was shot into smoke by the machine gun!
No shadow clone could forcibly approach Nagato and Sasori through the fire blockade formed by the two machine guns.
Even survival had become extremely difficult.
“…”
Naruto looked at his shadow clone that was being wiped out like grass, and he was completely dumbfounded, “Hey, Sakura, what kind of weapon is that?”
“Naruto, come back first!”
Sakura was also dodging the stray bullets in a sorry state.
Fortunately, Chiyo had set up a shield of light in time to barely create a safe place for them to breathe.
According to Chiyo’s knowledge, it was probably a rather peculiar mechanical weapon. The hidden weapons shot out were similar to a Senbon.
The entire forest was riddled with holes by the machine guns.
After Naruto’s thousands of shadow clones were destroyed one by one, Nagato slowly let the two machine guns disappear, “It seems that this Technique has a good effect.”
“…”
Sasori stood next to Nagato, dumbfounded.
Ever since Nagato had created two machine guns, Sasori had been staring blankly at Nagato, controlling the machine gun to kill in all directions. He was utterly stunned.
What kind of weapon was this?
No, what kind of hidden weapon was this?
F*ck, has the era changed again?
Sasori recalled the time when they acted together with Nagato and Uehara. It seemed that these two guys could always come up with something new.
If he could install Nagato’s two machine guns on his puppet…
It would definitely be very interesting.
“Rasengan!”
A figure suddenly emerged from the lawn on the ground, holding a Rasengan in his hand and pressing it on Nagato’s body. It was Naruto who had secretly used his shadow clone to cover him!
Nagato frowned and slowly stretched out his palm to grab the Rasengan in Naruto’s hand. He shouted in a low voice, “Gakidō(Preta Path)!”
In the next moment, that Nagato directly absorbed Rasengan’s chakra!
Naruto lowered his head and looked at his empty hand in astonishment, “Wait… how is this possible?”
“In this world, nothing is impossible.”
Nagato turned over and kicked Naruto away. With a calm face, he said, “Being distracted in battle is not a good habit!”
“Naruto!”
Sakura rushed forward and hugged Naruto. She saved her teammate and said in a low voice, “Naruto, don’t be too impulsive!”
Sai took advantage of this opportunity to break free from his bindings, using the Body Substitution Technique to appear next to Kakashi, saving their captain.
The members of Akatsuki did nothing to stop them.
However, the pressure brought by the members of Akatsuki was enough.
Now, the strongest person in this team, Kakashi, had directly lost his fighting strength, leaving only the young Temari and the old woman, Chiyo.
“That guy wearing a hat is very strong!”
Naruto looked at Nagato in the distance and said with a serious face, “Strong beyond imagination. In my opinion, the pressure he brings is not worse than the pressure that Uehara once brought to us…”
Naruto felt like he had no power to fight when they fought just now, even though the enemy played it down.
Naruto frowned as if looking for an excuse muttered, “The feeling of me fighting with him… is just like when we met a powerful opponent like Uehara four years ago in the Chunin examination.”
“…”
Sakura’s expression suddenly became incomparably ugly.
Four years later, they had already become even stronger. Could it be that they had encountered another enemy that could hang and beat them up?
“This isn’t too good…”
Chiyo’s fingers moved slightly as she controlled her two puppets and said in a deep voice, “Let’s retreat and move closer to the other team first! I’ll take the rear. You little guys move quickly!”
“Granny!”
“How can this be? I’ll take the rear!”
“Stop arguing.”
Chiyo coldly looked at the two figures in the black robe in the distance. She then looked at Deidara in the air and said in a low voice, “We can only plan after we meet up with the other team. These enemies seem to not care about us at all…”
“Okay.”
Sai also nodded and said softly, “Perhaps the only harvest is that we have undoubtedly found traces of Akatsuki. But since we have found him, we must not let go easily. We must meet up with Team Three as soon as possible!”
“No.”
Naruto clenched his fists and said with an unusually firm expression, “If we lose track of Akatsuki this time, we do not know when we will find them next time. This way, when can we save Gaara!”
Sakura looked nervously at his teammates, “Naruto…”
“Don’t worry, Sakura. I won’t let myself fall into danger.”
Naruto waved his hand and said softly, “All of you, step back a little. Leave the rest of the battlefield to me!”
“Huh?”
Chiyo looked at him in surprise and couldn’t help but say, “Although I don’t know what technique you want to use, let me help you attack from the side!”
“Granny!”
Naruto shook his head, stopping Chiyo’s thoughts, “Next, I might need to use Kyuubi’s power. There will likely be trouble, so it is better to stay away from me. After all, I am not familiar with this move.”
“I understand.”
After Chiyo nodded, she continued to control her two puppets and said softly, “Then I will think of a way to lure away that kid Sasori, lest his puppets create trouble for you!”
“Leave the enemies in the air to me!”
Sai glanced at Deidara, who was still flying slowly around the area. He took out a thick brush and drew a bird in his scroll with thick ink, “Ninpō, Chōjū Giga(Ninja Art: Super Beast Imitating Drawing)!”
A giant bird lifted Sai into the air. He only turned around and said coldly, “Next, I will tie up the blond ninja in the air for some time. The ground will be handed over to you, Naruto!”
“En!”
Naruto nodded heavily.
Sakura reached out to treat Kakashi and whispered, “Kakashi-sensei’s injury is very troublesome. I will heal and protect him…”
While speaking, Sakura suddenly raised his head and said, “But Naruto, was there really a need to do this?”
“Yes!”
After Naruto nodded, a red chakra coat appeared on his body, and a tail appeared behind him!
This scene instantly aroused the vigilance of Nagato and Sasori.
That was Kyuubi’s chakra!
“Such violent chakra…”
Nagato’s finger moved, and he said in a low voice, “It seems that he can already use Bijuu’s power. If not for fear of delaying that little fellow’s plan, I’d really want to capture Kyuubi immediately. After all, it is the most difficult Bijuu to capture…”
“Heh…”
The corners of Sasori’s mouth curled into a smile, “All of you, from the top to the bottom to you, all of you really dote on him!”
“We can only govern the present, and he is the one who will lead the future.”
“Tsk, I’m not interested in listening to those things about raising children!”
Sasori controlled Third and Fourth Kazekage’s puppets to float beside him. He glanced at Chiyo, who was glaring at him like a tiger, and said coldly, “It seems that I have no choice but to start a great battle with granny again.”
“No, you and Deidara exchange opponents.”
Nagato interrupted Sasori with a cold voice and continued, “Konan has already told you not to waste those puppets created using the money the organization gave you. If you can’t get results, then you will eat all the scrapped puppets.”
“…”
Sasori’s figure froze, and he snorted, “No problem!”
No one knew if this guy was saying that there was no problem exchanging opponents or if there was no problem swallowing the scrapped puppet after the battle ends…
The next moment, Sasori controlled Fourth and Kazekage to create a sand pad under his feet and took his body and puppets into the air!
Sasori agreed with Nagato and immediately exchanged opponents with Deidara.
Deidara, who was in the air, was slightly dissatisfied when he saw Sasori. He opened his mouth and began to mutter, “Hey, hey, hey. I don’t want to deal with such a troublesome opponent like the Puppet Master. Do you want me to use C3 and C4 to blow up that granny?”
“Don’t try your best.”
As expected of the senior water manager of Akatsuki’s organization, Sasori simply opened his mouth to throw the water, “You just need to stall for time!”
In any case, the three of them only needed to stall for time until Uehara and another team of Konoha Ninjas arrived.
Coincidentally, what Konoha needed to do was to stall for time until Uehara, and their other team arrived.
“Alright.”
Deidara nodded reluctantly and flew to the ground with the clay bird. He threw a string of spider clay bombs!
Deidara’s cheerful voice echoed in the air, “Ahahaha… Art is an explosion! Katsu!”
“Idiot.”
After cursing, Sasori could not help but frown. He felt that something was not right.
Deidara was his precious teammate, and Chiyo was his relative. Was there really no problem in a battle between the two of them?
Unfortunately, there was no time for Sasori to think!
Apart from Sakura, who was helping Kakashi heal, the others had already chosen their opponents and fought with each other!
