Chapter 243: Orochimaru intercepts Obito (4K words, please subscribe!)
giggle-
The dense and orderly sound of the puppet machines operating continued to ring out, just like the dangerous sound of rattlesnakes in the desert.
Hundreds of strange-looking puppets wearing red robes were floating in the air.
They have strange faces, like ghosts floating in the air, or like hundreds of ghosts parading at night.
Twelve versus one hundred.
The outcome of this confrontation between grandmother and grandson seems to be predetermined.
Outside the camp.
On a sand dune in the east, Obito, wearing a tiger-striped mask, looked towards the camp, with a White Zetsu following him.
"This duel can even be called a duel between the strongest puppeteers in the ninja world." White Zetsu said excitedly in A Fei's unique voice, "Is this something I can watch without paying?"
Obito glanced at A Fei who had temporarily separated from him, and whispered:
"You can give me the money. After all, I brought you here."
"Hey, considering our relationship, it's awkward to talk about money." Ah Fei suddenly asked with a smile: "Obito, who do you think will win?"
Obito said disdainfully:
"Isn't this obvious? I need to correct what you just said. There is only one strongest puppeteer in the ninja world."
"Yes Yes Yes!"
Ah Fei did not refute.
now.
The Sand Village camp has fallen, and it was not ninjas who captured the camp, but a huge army of White Zetsu.
In order to be able to capture the One-Tail Jinchūriki stably.
Obito spent a lot of money this time. After discussing with Black Zetsu, he awakened a team of White Zetsu in advance.
Under the attack of the White Zetsu team, the Sand Ninja troops at the border of the Sand Village were vulnerable.
After all, the Sand Ninjas had never seen such a monster, and White Zetsu's fighting power was not weak compared to ordinary ninjas.
"Okay, it's almost time. Let's go over and inspect our work. Yinyue is far away in the Hidden Cloud Village this time and won't interfere with our good deeds."
Obito smiled and took the lead in walking down from the top of the sand dune.
Ah Fei quickly followed.
then.
It drilled into the sand and turned into a white liquid-like substance. It passed under Obito's feet and drilled into Obito's body, merging with him.
Behind the sand dunes where they were previously, there were corpses of Sand Ninjas scattered all over the ground.
These corpses died in a miserable state, with wood tunic barbs bursting out of their bodies, all of them died from the impalement technique.
...
...
After the fierce fighting between the puppets, even the skeleton of the tent was completely destroyed.
All of the Chikamatsu Ten around Chiyo have fallen down, and their puppets are severely damaged, with no possibility of them standing up again.
As for Scorpion's masterpiece, the father and mother, they were also hit by the iron sand of the Sandaime Kazekage, so their joints were blocked and they couldn't even turn their necks, let alone fight.
Chiyo herself was also seriously injured by the crazy attack of the Sandaime Kazekage. She bent over and knelt on the ground, coughing up blood.
"I'll take the man away, but I can't guarantee you what will happen to him."
A smile appeared on the corner of Scorpion's mouth:
"Your puppetry is indeed powerful, but now is no longer your era."
Chiyo's face showed pain, and she said sadly:
"Why are you doing this? Gaara is the only hope for the future of Sunagakure. If something happens to him, it will be a problem whether Sunagakure can still exist in the future!"
She tried her best to stand up again and escape with Gaara.
But Chiyo tried several times to get up from the ground with her hands, but she couldn't.
Obviously, her old body has reached its limit.
Chiyo felt as if her hands were filled with iron sand by the Sandaime Kazekage, and were completely stuck, out of control and unable to move.
Also.
She felt her body was heavier than ever before, so heavy that it suffocated her.
Chiyo looked around, and since the tents had long been damaged, she could see the situation in the camp.
There were only a few Sand Ninjas left outside, fighting desperately, but as more and more white monsters surrounded them, they were eventually submerged in the monsters.
Despair arose.
Chiyo raised her head with difficulty and glared at her grandson who was walking towards her.
Unexpectedly, they did not encounter any attack from Konoha, but were instead wiped out by the rebellious ninjas in their own village.
There was such a moment.
Chiyo wanted to pray in her heart that the Konoha army could cross the River Country and attack the Sunagakure border at this time.
Thus.
At least Gaara can be guaranteed to live...
maybe.
Chiyo turned her head with difficulty and looked behind her at Gaara who was trembling all over but still had his eyes closed.
She whispered:
"Silly boy, run!"
Hearing these words, Gaara's body stiffened and he immediately opened his eyes. After just a glance around, he was ready to run away.
But Scorpion had already arrived in front of him and Chiyo.
The powerful feeling of oppression frightened the young Gaara.
Scorpion looked down at Gaara and said softly:
"I see my old self in you. Do you want your mother-in-law to be alive? If so, come with me."
Chiyo gritted her teeth and whispered, "No, no!"
But just as she was about to forcefully move her body, a puppet in a red robe suddenly appeared around her and pinned her down.
She lay prone on the sand, her vision blurred, and could only watch Gaara being taken away by Scorpion.
Chiyo struggled hard.
But she was too old and her strength was not enough to defeat the puppet that was holding her down.
"If I were still young, you guys would be nothing!!"
Chiyo glared at the puppet behind her that was pressing her down.
Scorpion led Gaara forward.
Without even turning his head, he replied coldly:
"I've said before that your era has long passed. I'd like to add that the era of traditional puppeteers has also passed."
"What is your purpose in doing this? Scorpion! Tell me!"
The right side of Chiyo's face had been pressed into the sand. She spat out a mouthful of yellow sand and questioned loudly.
Scorpion then turned around and stared at his grandmother.
"For the new world!"
After that, he stopped talking and walked towards the distorted space in front of him with Gaara looking back every three steps and a sad face.
The two sides were a hundred meters apart.
As long as Obito enters the space again, then comes out and completes the space jump, he can come to Sasori and take Gaara away.
When Scorpion took Gaara past a tent, Ebizo, lying among the corpses of the Sand Ninjas, stared at the two of them with wide eyes.
Scorpion ignored Ebizo.
Ebizo didn't make any moves either, as he was also exhausted.
He should have died here with the Sand Ninjas around him, but he was knocked unconscious by White Zetsu during the battle and pretended to be dead among the corpses, thus escaping the disaster.
At this point, he, like Chiyo, was no longer able to fight, or even stand up.
A feeling of despair engulfed Ebizo.
Ebizo also understood his sister's arrangement. With Gaara by their side, they could not protect the little guy.
If Gaara was placed in the Ninja Village, the Ninja Village would probably no longer exist by now.
"Who will save...Sand Ninja, who can save this ninja village, this country..."
Ebizō laughed, and as he laughed his voice choked and turned into sobs.
at this time.
It seemed as if God had heard his call, and sudden changes occurred on the battlefield.
A team of White Zetsu that was supposed to be besieging the Sand Ninja nearby suddenly changed their attack direction and attacked Sasori and Gaara.
Feeling the White Zetsu coming instantly from behind, Ebizo's heart sank to the bottom, waiting for his neck to be twisted by the White Zetsu.
moment.
Ebizo was stunned. The White Zetsu stepped on the corpses on him without paying any attention to him and went straight towards Scorpion in front of them.
Then, a large number of White Zetsu nearby changed their attack targets, left the battlefield, and attacked towards where Scorpion was.
Even the other White Zetsu who had fought against these White Zetsu before were stunned by this scene.
They were fighting according to Black Zetsu's will. Black Zetsu only ordered them to attack the Sand Ninjas and had no other orders.
"..."
Scorpion naturally sensed something was wrong, but at the moment, all of his puppets were guarding Chiyo.
After all, even if Chiyo fell, she was still a huge source of threat because she controlled the poison.
It naturally takes some time to drive the puppet over here.
“These guys…”
Scorpion snorted with disdain but did not panic, even though those white blood cells were like rivers split out of the ocean and the amount was equally terrifying.
He grabbed Gaara's little arm, his face calm, and glanced at the White Zetsu coming from all directions.
Soon, Sasori was surrounded by White Zetsu, and even Obito, who possessed Kamui, was unable to get close to Sasori.
"what happened?"
Obito scolded in a low voice.
He just emerged from the Divine Power Space.
Then we saw the White Zetsu suddenly lost control and surrounded Scorpion, making it impossible for them to escape.
White Zetsu Afei's head appeared on Obito's left shoulder, and he asked in confusion:
"I...I don't know either, but I can try to blend in with them and explore their memories."
The voice just fell.
Many White Zetsu suddenly attacked Obito, like zombies smelling blood, launching crazy attacks on anyone they saw.
Obito's face was gloomy. After kicking a White Zetsu away, his body became weak, causing the White Zetsu that was rushing towards him to miss. Then he pulled the White Zetsu Afei off his body and threw him into the middle of the White Zetsu.
He entered the divine power space.
instant.
Obito appeared a hundred meters away.
As for Ah Fei, he was left where he was and became the target of attack by those crazy White Zetsu.
"what--"
Soon Ah Fei's body was torn into white cell fragments by the White Zetsu, and he let out a shrill scream.
"We are all family, don't do this, we can't do this!"
Ah Fei shouted loudly.
But no White Zetsu was willing to listen to its nagging.
Ah Fei didn't think much about it. Just like before, he turned into a white substance, caught a crazy White Zetsu nearby, and merged into it.
But soon, Ah Fei was expelled. After sensing that Ah Fei had entered his body, the crazy White Zetsu did not even let himself go and attacked his body frantically.
But it was just this brief moment.
Ah Fei peeked into White Zetsu's memory.
It immediately disappeared into the sand.
When it reappeared from the ground, it was already in front of Obito.
Just because his body was shattered, Ah Fei seemed to have shrunk a lot at this time, from an adult to a child.
"What happened to them?"
Obito said coldly.
He scanned the battlefield and discovered that three-tenths of the White Zetsu army he brought with him had gone into a state of madness.
Ah Fei didn't rush to answer the question, but asked: "Obito, why did you just throw me down?"
Obito said calmly:
"I'm afraid you don't dare to go down. Anyway, you won't die. Stop talking nonsense and come on!"
As he said this, Obito extended his hand towards Afei.
After feeling wronged, the latter did not refuse and merged with Obito.
A Fei's head appeared on Obito's left shoulder. Looking at the crazy White Zetsu running towards them, he said anxiously:
"They were implanted with another kind of spiritual will. From their spiritual world, I saw that they were once imprisoned in a large warehouse..."
"Who did it?"
Obito asked the key question.
talking.
He escaped into the divine power space again.
Ah Fei replied: "I don't know. Their memories are incomplete. They didn't see who was the ninja controlling them."
"In the ninja world...besides puppeteers, who else has the ability to control others?"
Obito was lost in thought.
After a moment, he and Ah Fei came to the same answer. They looked at each other and spoke at the same time:
"Uchiha Yinyue!!!"
Obito said grimly:
"But isn't he... not here? Can he be on both sides of the battlefield at the same time???"
Ah Fei shook his head, stunned, not knowing how to answer this question.
Obviously, Ah Fei's body was torn apart just now, causing his brain to be a little stuck.
Obito watched helplessly as the crazy White Zetsu overwhelmed Sasori, just as the White Zetsu army had overwhelmed the Sand Ninja before.
He naturally didn't have to worry about anything happening to Scorpion, but right now he had to find a way to use Kamui to get close to Scorpion and then take the Jinchūriki away.
However, there were too many White Zetsu and he had no place to land, so it was difficult for him to find an opportunity to get close.
As for killing...
Obito looked around, lost in thought.
moment.
Not far away, at the edge of the distant desert, a large number of ninjas suddenly appeared in an instant.
They were wearing Konoha armor, and the leader was an Uchiha ninja wearing a dark blue Uchiha clan uniform with Impure World Cracks on his face.
Obito's face suddenly turned dark.
This is why he didn't dare to take action. If this was Yinyue's arrangement...
It is naturally impossible that the opponent only has the Crazy White Zetsu as one obvious killer move.
In war.
The Sand Village, which was originally surrounded by White Zetsu, suddenly found that there were fewer White Zetsu besieging them.
In addition, a number of ninjas were rushing over from the edge of the desert not far away.
The surviving Sand Ninjas didn't know what expression to make or what mood to use to face this scene.
They were besieged by white monsters, and ended up... needing to be rescued by the Konoha army that was originally attacking them?
But...it seems like they now really have a chance of surviving.
Among the pile of corpses, Ebizo was also shocked. He suddenly looked up into the distance.
Suddenly, I saw that the Uchiha clan ninja, who was leading the group, had already joined the battlefield.
Ebizo was stunned.
Behind the Konoha ninja army, Orochimaru slowly brought the Four Sound Ninjas and Kimimaro to the edge of the battlefield.
Orochimaru stared at the pale battlefield, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he shook his head and sighed:
"At first, I didn't know the meaning of Yinyuejun releasing these monsters. Now, I know."
As he spoke, he looked at the people behind him and ordered, "Go, find the Jinchuriki and save him from these monsters!"
"Yes--"
A group of ninjas advanced at full speed and joined the battlefield.
...
...
In the Ninja World, the northern sky is covered with clouds.
When the dark red Susanoo passes by, the earth will be covered with dark red.
"This is... the Land of Earth?"
Xiaonan looked down at the earth and analyzed the place he had arrived at through the terrain surrounded by mountains.
Yinyue nodded and said, "Yes."
