Chapter 108 Meeting Shukaku

The Raikage's left arm was completely blown off from three quarters.

Aoba originally aimed at the heart of the Raikage, but at the last moment, the Cloud Ninja behind the Raikage used a certain earth escape technique to disrupt his balance, causing the move to deviate slightly.

After the Raikage's left arm exploded, his body did not stop at all and disappeared directly before his eyes.

Aoba attacked again without hesitation. With a flash, he shot towards the back of the Raikage.

But just as he raised his hand, more than a dozen Cloud Ninjas rushed up and stood in front of him.

Qingye's flash was still not perfect. Whether it was raising his hand or charging, it required certain preparatory actions.

Even though he was able to compress this time to less than one second, for the Cloud Ninjas who were good at high-speed movement, it was enough for many ninjas to react.

The reason why Qingye did not use a flash at the beginning, but laid out a lot of misleading tactics during the fight, was to buy himself less than a second.

A flash of light directly tore through the bodies of more than a dozen Kumo Ninjas. However, due to their obstruction, the Raikage had already disappeared from sight.

"Haha, I thought he would stay and fight me to the death, and then buy time for you to leave. After all, isn't that what your Third Raikage did?"

Aoba's taunting directly broke the defense of the remaining dozens of Kumo Ninjas. The Third Raikage's single-handed retreat was remembered by the ninjas of the entire Kumo Ninja Village. This was also the reason why the Fourth was able to ascend to the throne smoothly and was supported. His father paved the way for him with his life.

The group of Cloud Ninjas in front of him were all fanatical followers of the Raikage. They had blocked Aoba's several killing moves with their lives.

It can be said that if it weren't for these Cloud Ninjas, the Raikage would have died three times before. Every Cloud Ninja was ready to sacrifice for the Raikage.

But the Raikage's action of turning around and running away still gave them a lot of motivation. At least you can motivate your subordinates and draw a pie before running.

Qingye actually understood the Raikage's thoughts very well. After his left arm was broken, his body balance was completely broken. He could no longer move at the same high speed as before.

In this case, if Qingye used the secret technique called Flash again, he would definitely not be able to dodge it.

He couldn't even stop, because Qingye's move was much faster than before. If he stayed for one more second, he would be in danger of death. So, he turned around and ran without looking back.

In this way, he gained a glimmer of hope for himself. But the price he paid was that all the Cloud Ninjas who were covering for him were exposed to Aoba.

Aoba hooked his finger, and the Kusanagi sword that was inserted not far away flew into his hand.

"It's a pity that I couldn't kill that old bastard here. So, I can only use you to vent my anger."

About an hour later, hundreds of Konoha reinforcements arrived at the scene, but the battle was already over.

All they saw were corpses, broken limbs, and some indescribable flesh and blood organs all over the ground.

Aoba casually used the Kusanagi sword to stab into the grass, and then inserted a piece of his forearm.

"This is the Raikage's arm. Let the research department go back and analyze it to see if they can deduce a reverse lightning chakra mode."

An Anbu ninja hurriedly took over the arm, and looked at Aoba with eyes full of admiration.

Because according to the information they had obtained, Aoba should have faced the attack of the Raikage and hundreds of Kumogakure ninjas alone.

But now, Master Aoba had almost no visible injuries on his body. But there were at least hundreds of Kumo Ninja corpses on the ground, as well as the Raikage's arm.

This can only mean one thing.

Lord Aoba defeated the Kumogakure army alone and severely damaged the Raikage. This record was enough to shock the entire ninja world.

"Examine their bodies and gather all the information you can."

Kakashi ordered, and then walked over to Aoba.

"how do you feel?"

"No pressure."

Kakashi looked at Aoba in surprise.

"Your strength has improved faster than I thought. I'm afraid no ninja in the ninja world can defeat you."

"It's useless. It's still not enough for those guys in the dark."

Whether it is Obito or Nagato, Aoba is not sure about it at the moment, not to mention the possibility of facing Uchiha Madara in the future.

In addition, most people overlook a key character, Black Zetsu.

There is basically no direct fighting scene of this guy in the original work. But he is the product of Yin-Yang Escape, and his status is extremely high.

The best proof of this is that in the original novel, Six Paths Madara was killed instantly by him in one strike. Aoba has always been extremely wary of this guy. No matter how strong Black Zetsu is in combat, this ability to kill with one strike forces Aoba to be on guard.

Two days later, the news that the Raikage was defeated and retreated to Konoha, and that one of his arms was cut off by the Wind Chaser Uekawa Aoba, spread throughout the ninja world.

There was information from the northwest that Iwagakure ninjas were gathering. But in the end, Konoha did not wait for the invasion of Iwagakure ninjas. They only encountered a few reconnaissance teams. Afterwards, Konoha's surroundings returned to peace again.

..........

In Konoha's prison, in a special room, Aoba sat on a chair, and opposite him was Gaara, who was captured by him during the Konoha collapse plan.

As Aoba extracted his original chakra, Shukaku fell into a weak state and was now mentally depressed. He spent most of his time sleeping in his spiritual world.

In this way, Gaara also got enough rest time. He actually felt much better mentally. The strangest thing was that Shukaku's stimulation to him was weaker now. He even took the initiative to lend him chakra several times to help him escape from prison.

Unfortunately, Konoha's prison was much more complete than I had imagined. Gaara tried it for a while and knew it was impossible. So, he waited quietly in the prison.

There was no way Sunagakure would give up on him, so he just had to wait quietly.

Seeing Aoba coming in, Gaara couldn't help but feel a little nervous, because he could feel that Shukaku, who was originally weak in his body, was actually afraid.

Shukaku is indeed afraid. The tailed beast is essentially immortal. Even if it is killed, it can be reborn somewhere in the world after a few years.

But it was different when facing Qingye. The other party had extracted a part of its original power. This part of power was actually the source of its rebirth.

This also means that Aoba can completely kill it, making it unable to regenerate. How can Shukaku not be terrified by this?

"Tell the thing inside you that I didn't intend to actually kill it. The ones I had before were enough."

Gaara was stunned for a moment, and then tried to communicate with Shukaku. Since being abused by Aoba, Shukaku's attitude towards Gaara has changed drastically. Because the tailed beasts and the Jinchūriki can work together to exert stronger combat power.

After a while, Gaara spoke in a somewhat strange tone.

"It makes me ask you, what exactly do you want to do?"
