Chapter 1044 Love

Naruto clenched his fists, "Damn it, he still got away." Gaara's eyes were firm, and he said in a deep voice: "He escaped this time, I won't give him another chance next time." Kankuro also put away the puppet and said: "We have to report this situation to the village. Deidara is backed by the Akatsuki organization, we can't take it lightly."

At this time, Shikamaru in the support team pushed his glasses and analyzed: "After Deidara escapes, he will definitely report the situation here to Akatsuki. Akatsuki will probably take bigger actions next." Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions became solemn.

Gaara looked at everyone and said, "Thank you for the support of Konoha Village. Next, our Sand Village will join forces with Konoha Village to deal with the threat of Akatsuki." Naruto grinned and said, "No problem, we are partners, let's protect the ninja world together!"

Afterwards, everyone sorted themselves out and returned to their villages with the information about the battle. A bigger storm seemed to be approaching quietly... After returning to the village, the Sand Village and the Leaf Village immediately held an emergency meeting. The Hokage and the leader of the Sand Village sat in the first seat and listened to everyone's reports. The atmosphere of the meeting was extremely solemn, and everyone knew how powerful the Akatsuki organization was.

At this moment, a carrier pigeon flew into the conference room, bringing a secret letter. The Hokage opened the letter and his face instantly turned very ugly. "Akatsuki has already started to act. They plan to attack the surrounding small countries to weaken the strength of our alliance." The Hokage said in a deep voice.

Everyone clenched their fists, their eyes full of anger. Naruto was the first to stand up and shouted, "We can't just sit there and wait for death. I will take the initiative to stop their conspiracy!" Gaara also stood up and said firmly, "I will fight with you. The ninjas of Sand Village and Konoha Village will fight side by side."

So, the two villages quickly gathered elite ninjas and formed a joint team to head towards the small country targeted by the Akatsuki organization. A great ninja war is about to begin. The joint team traveled day and night and finally arrived at the small country that was targeted. However, as soon as they entered the country, they fell into the trap set by the Akatsuki organization. Countless puppets poured out from all directions, and hidden weapons rained down from the sky. Naruto quickly formed a seal and used the shadow clone technique to rush towards the group of puppets. Gaara controlled the sand to form a huge shield to protect his companions. The battle was extremely fierce, and the ninjas fought bravely, but the Akatsuki organization had endless means. Just when everyone was a little overwhelmed, a huge black shadow suddenly appeared in the sky. It turned out that a mysterious member of the Akatsuki organization joined the battle with a giant summoned beast. The summoned beast opened its bloody mouth and pounced on the joint team. Naruto gritted his teeth and prepared to release the power of the Nine-Tails. Gaara was also ready for a full-scale battle. At this critical moment, the ninjas from the small country suddenly rushed out from the rear and joined the battle. It turned out that they had long been aware of the conspiracy of the Akatsuki organization and had been secretly preparing for support. With the addition of the ninjas from the small country, the morale of the joint team was greatly boosted, and they resumed a fierce battle with the Akatsuki organization. With the joint efforts of many parties, the situation gradually improved. However, a strange smile appeared on the corner of the mouth of the mysterious member of the Akatsuki organization. Suddenly, he snapped his fingers, and the puppets that had been defeated exploded one after another. The powerful impact shook everyone to the ground. Naruto was blown away by the air wave and almost hit the boulder. Fortunately, Gaara caught him with sand in time. Just when everyone was a little panicked, the mysterious member summoned a group of small summoned beasts. They were extremely fast and rushed into the crowd in an instant, biting the ninjas. The joint team was in crisis again. At this time, Shikamaru suddenly had an idea and shouted, "Everyone, concentrate your chakra and use large-scale ninjutsu!" The ninjas reacted quickly and formed seals one after another. For a moment, various ninjutsu such as fire, water, and wind intertwined together to wipe out those small summoned beasts and the remaining puppets. Seeing that the situation was not good, the mysterious member quickly fled with the giant summoned beast. Although the joint team repelled the attack of the Akatsuki organization, they knew that this was just the beginning and that more difficult battles were still to come. Everyone was ready and continued to be on high alert to protect the ninja world. Just when everyone thought that the battle had come to an end for the time being, the ground suddenly shook violently. The mysterious member returned with the giant summoned beast. It turned out that he had just pretended to escape, but actually went to summon a more powerful force. The giant summoned beast exuded a strange aura, and every step made the earth tremble. It opened its mouth and sprayed a black energy wave, and wherever it went, the land turned into scorched earth. Seeing this, Naruto shouted loudly, "Everyone, come together, we must not let him run away this time!" Everyone responded in unison and rushed towards the enemy again. Gaara manipulated the sand to bind the giant summoned beast's limbs, while Naruto took the opportunity to cast a Rasengan and rushed towards the mysterious member. The mysterious member sneered and performed a new ninjutsu. For a moment, the situation changed. Although the joint team faced tremendous pressure, everyone worked together and cooperated with each other. In the fierce battle, Naruto seized the opportunity and hit the mysterious member with a powerful Rasengan, causing his body to shake. And Gaara also stepped up his efforts and successfully trapped the giant summoned beast. Seeing that the situation was over, the mysterious member had to flee again. The joint team won again, but they knew that the Akatsuki organization would not give up easily, and the road ahead was still full of challenges. Just as everyone took a breath, the sky suddenly became overcast, and strange lightning flashed across. The mysterious member actually appeared with more members of the Akatsuki organization, including a few guys with unfathomable strength. The leader, a man in a black robe, said coldly: "Just relying on you, you still want to stop the Akatsuki organization's plan? It's just wishful thinking."

Naruto glared at them: "No matter how many of you come, we will not back down!" After that, he activated the Nine-Tails mode again, emitting powerful chakra. Gaara also condensed the sand into a huge armor, ready to fight.

A new round of fighting started, and the two sides were in a stalemate. The members of Akatsuki used their unique skills, and the joint team was not afraid and fought with all their strength. Just when the battle was the most intense, a melodious flute sound suddenly came from a distance. Wherever the flute sounded, the members of Akatsuki stopped their actions and showed painful expressions. It turned out that a mysterious master hidden in a small country came to support and used the flute sound to disturb the enemy. Taking this opportunity, the joint team launched a general attack and beat the members of Akatsuki back step by step. But they knew that this was only a temporary victory, and the conspiracy of Akatsuki had not been fully revealed, and more brutal battles were still to come.
