#184 - Chapter 184 The Protagonist
Logically speaking, the ninjas of the Sand Village should have been able to shake off the pursuing Leaf Village ninjas!
Firstly, the Sand Village ninjas didn't suffer too much damage because the retreat order came in time.
Secondly, the main attention of the Leaf Village ninjas was still focused on Orochimaru and the ninjas of the Sound Village.
However, Gaara, this unstable factor, still caused the Sand Village ninjas to be pursued by Konoha.
The reason is also very simple. After hearing the name of Uchiha Sasuke, Gaara, who was already in a state of confusion, lost control and entered the state of a possessed body, that is, a half-tailed beast, half-human state.
He launched an attack on Uchiha Sasuke, who was secretly following them.
Maki also immediately realized that the situation was not right, but it was too late to stop it.
Because Gaara, who had entered this state, was beyond the control of Maki, his teacher.
Of course, with the number of Sand Village ninjas at this time, it was still possible to get rid of Uchiha Sasuke and continue to flee.
But at this moment, one of the Konoha 12 appeared.
Shino Aburame!
Although he was still just a child, as one of the strongest of the Konoha 12 at this stage, Shino Aburame's insects still caused a lot of trouble for the Sand Village ninjas, and with the cooperation of Uchiha Sasuke, they still bought some time.
As for why Shino appeared here.
Although Shino doesn't seem to have a high presence, he is still very proud in his heart.
In the Chunin Exam, Kankuro, Shino's opponent, chose to automatically abstain.
This has always bothered Shino!
So, after discovering Sasuke's departure, he immediately left the insects on Sasuke, and then he followed at the end.
However, he didn't expect to encounter such a scene!
Two children had to face so many Sand Village ninjas.
Fortunately, the Sand Village ninjas were a little careless when facing the two children.
After delaying for a while, when they were about to die, Shino's father's insects appeared.
Of course, it wasn't that the Sand Village was underestimating the enemy, but that they didn't dare to attack Sasuke and Shino.
Maki is not a fool. Although he was puzzled by the sudden retreat order issued by Lord Kazekage, he also knew that the Konoha Crush plan had failed, and the strange state of Lord Kazekage made Maki have a bad premonition, so he did not dare to provoke Konoha too much.
And with the appearance of Shino's father's insects, Kakashi, Guy, Naruto and the others also chased after them.
Then, a great battle appeared.
Sand Village ninjas VS Leaf Village Jonin.
Sand Village's Temari, Kankuro, Gaara VS Leaf Village's Shikamaru, Shino, Sasuke, Naruto, Sakura.
It's not that Kakashi and the others are crazy to let Naruto and these children deal with a Jinchuriki like Gaara, but Gaara, who has entered the possessed body, has fallen into madness, and the only thing he thinks about is killing: Uchiha Sasuke to prove his worth.
Moreover, even with Asuma and Hayate Gekko who came later, there are only five Jonin from Konoha here.
But the opposing Sand Village has hundreds of ninjas.
Kakashi and the others were also busy dealing with these Sand Village ninjas.
Fortunately, the performance of Sasuke and Naruto surprised Kakashi and the others.
Sasuke's Chidori, together with Naruto's Multiple Shadow Clone Technique, actually suppressed Gaara in the possessed body state.
Then, there is the scene now. The increasingly crazy Gaara finally went completely berserk and entered the complete body.
"Roar!"
"To thank you for allowing me to fully enjoy the fun, I will let you see the true power of the Sand Avatar!"
On top of the huge Shukaku's head, Gaara's upper body slowly emerged, making a sound that made Naruto and Sasuke feel cold.
Sasuke's eyes were directly distracted, and Naruto's body was also shaking.
Fortunately, Kakashi stood up at this time, stood in front of them and said.
"Okay, Sasuke, Naruto, you did a good job just now, but the next battle is not something you can participate in."
This is a matter of course, and Sasuke couldn't help but take half a step back.
But Naruto took a step forward and said.
"Kakashi-sensei... I..."
"What's wrong, Naruto! ?"
Naruto's strange state made Kakashi a little strange, but then he seemed to understand something and said comfortingly.
"Don't worry, Naruto, next, you take care of yourselves, we are going up."
"Kakashi! What is that?"
Guy's anxious voice also sounded, looking solemnly at the direction of Shukaku.
Kakashi looked over and saw Gaara on top of Shukaku's head, directly falling into a sleeping dream.
Kakashi was shocked. He didn't understand what was going on. The Sand Village ninjas not far away had already given him the answer.
"Damn it, Gaara actually launched the Tanuki Sleep Technique! Shukaku is about to wake up! Everyone, retreat quickly!"
The Sand Village ninjas immediately ignored the battle with the Leaf Village ninjas and retreated, because they knew how amazing the destructive power of Shukaku in this state was.
At this moment, the huge Shukaku let out a somewhat sharp cry.
"Great, I'm finally out!"
The sound was so loud that Sakura covered her ears in horror.
"Is this the real Shukaku?"
And the awakened Shukaku immediately discovered the ninjas around him. He didn't care about the Sand Village ninjas or the Leaf Village ninjas, and immediately roared.
"Great, as soon as I came out, I found the humans I wanted to kill!"
In an instant, Shukaku patted his stomach.
"Wind Release: Drilling Air Bullet ~"
"Crap!"
The dazzling white light filled everyone's vision at this moment.
"Earth Release: Multiple Earth Style Wall!"
"Boom!"
The huge roar and explosion resounded in the ears of all the ninjas.
Fortunately, a huge earth wall rose up, protecting everyone in it, but the terrible airflow in their ears still made Sakura scream in horror.
Just like that, after a minute, the explosion stopped, and Naruto, who was protected by Kakashi and the others, also opened his eyes.
Then, they saw a scene that made their eyes go blank.
Kakashi-sensei's Earth Style Wall had been destroyed to the point where only a little bit was left to protect them, and around them, the world that was originally a forest had now turned into a huge wasteland.
"! ! !"
The huge destructive power of the Tailed Beast ninjutsu directly turned everything within a five-kilometer radius in front of Shukaku into ruins.
Asuma also frowned.
"That's an exaggeration, is this the power of the Tailed Beast? If I were hit by that, I would be dead for sure!"
This kind of destructive move cannot be resisted by human power at all.
"Kakashi, what do we do now?"
Asuma asked, but as soon as the words fell, everyone noticed Kakashi's strangeness. Kakashi was panting weakly, and the exposed Sharingan explained the reason for Kakashi's weakness.
"Sorry, I used too much chakra!"
At this moment, Naruto suddenly stood up, looking firmly at the distant huge Shukaku, with his hands forming a seal.
"Kakashi-sensei, leave this monster to me!"
"! ! ! ? ? ?"
Everyone was surprised and stunned.
Although Naruto's performance just now did exceed everyone's expectations, that is a Tailed Beast.
Even they, these Jonin, are helpless.
Sakura immediately shouted in dissatisfaction.
"Idiot, Naruto, what time is it, you are still showing off!"
Only Sasuke looked at Naruto's firm eyes, his eyes shocked.
Since the two became teammates, the power shown by Naruto, the dead last, has shocked Sasuke again and again.
"Could it be..."
"I'm not kidding!"
At this moment, Naruto formed a seal with his hands, exuding an aura that convinced people.
And Kakashi saw Naruto's hand seal and suddenly thought of something, his pupils shrank sharply.
"Could it be that technique?"
And Naruto had already completed the hand seal at this time.
"I'll use the technique that Jiraiya-sensei taught me..."
"Summoning Technique!"
