Chapter 800 Attack

The sun has not yet set, and the sky is completely invisible in the area covered by the sandstorm.

Between the flying sand and rocks, it was completely a scene of doomsday.

In such an environment, ordinary people would probably collapse in despair, and even weak ninjas would not be able to deal with it calmly.

Matsuri, a kunoichi who had been accepted as a disciple of the Kazekage Fifth Generation Gaara for only a few months, dug a hole in the ground with her best friend Yukata and another teammate Yugo at a critical moment, lay down in it, and covered it with a windproof cloth. Fix the four corners and leave a little space to ensure there is a minimum of breathing air.

A few minutes later, the wind and sand buried the three people underground.

Hiding in the relatively stable sand is a good way to avoid sudden sandstorms, but you have to be careful. If you are not careful, you will really become a mummy buried in the sand.

Fortunately, the most dangerous part of a sandstorm is the initial period. After that, the wind and sand spread, and the energy is no longer so dense.

When the howling wind above began to subside, the three young genin who felt a little difficult to breathe lifted up the windproof cloth. After taking a few breaths, they looked at the gray air around them.

"At this time, it must have been dark, but it should not have reached midnight. Taking advantage of the opportunity when the other candidates were resting, we rushed through the night and arrived in the center of the 'Demon Desert' as soon as possible. Then we found a hidden place to hide and wait until The exam time is over..."

Slender in stature, he is very ambitious and eager to try.

The so-called crisis is both a danger and an opportunity. If we can seize the opportunity of the sandstorm and break through the harsh environment in one fell swoop, we will have a great advantage.

Yukata said a little uneasily:

"Although the wind is a little lighter, it is still difficult to move in such weather. If you are attacked, you will be at a disadvantage..."

Seeing the opportunities that are right in front of you, you are often so blinded that you ignore the dangers that follow you.

The relatively stable Gogo, who is considered a rare intellectual among the young Suna ninjas, thought for a moment and said:

"We are newcomers in the Chunin Exam. We do not have an advantage in strength. If we want to stand out, it is difficult not to seize the fleeting opportunity! I agree with Matsuri. It is a good choice to seize the time and rush forward quickly... …”

"Oh well!"

Yukata, who was a little confused and had no opinion, was just a little worried. Since both teammates decided to take risks, she had no choice but to follow.

At the same time, five kilometers away in front, Master Pipa Fayi was sitting on the top of a rock pillar, squinting his eyes and looking into the depths of the sand haze, waiting for the figure that was about to appear.

Ever since the conflict with Daimaru, the young monk failed to attack Daimaru, was backlashed by his own mana sealing technique, and narrowly escaped death. After recovering from his injuries, the young monk has not appeared in front of others for a long time.

While practicing diligently, he suppressed his inner resentment towards Daimaru and quietly waited for the opportunity to take revenge, until that day when Fuyi came to visit him in person.

Even though his elders and brothers from the same sect did not agree with Fa Yi's plan, Fa Yi, who insisted on going his own way, could no longer let go of his obsession.

When personal grudges are combined with the so-called "righteousness", there is no reason to retreat, and what is about to happen today becomes inevitable.

"The young Kazekage is a disaster rather than a blessing. Only a respected leader can lead Sunagakure Village to regain its glory!" 』

When looking at issues through colored glasses, there is no need to present facts and reason. Standing determines attitude. Opposition to Gaara is the truth and the meaning of the existence of certain people and organizations.

Taking advantage of the sandstorm's surprise attack, the examiners of the "Devil's Desert" had no time to react, allowing the Shadow Guards to assist in the rescue, and attracting Gaara, the Fifth Kazekage, to carry out the assassination. This was all part of the plan.

It is simple and direct, and the effect is good. The more troublesome the layout, the easier it is for Gaara, who is gradually gaining a foothold, to notice the clues.

…

There was a glimmer of light in the eastern sky, and the sandstorm that raged in the middle of the night gradually receded, taking away the air energy accumulated in the "Demon Desert". The wind that was originally non-stop was now so small that it was almost unnoticeable.

The relatively cool dawn is the most comfortable time of day.

Sacrifice, Yukata, and Gogo, who only rested once in the second half of the night, were already ahead of all the candidates. They were the first to walk out of the sandstorm. They were far ahead. They were also the first batch of candidates to fall into the eyes of the law.

"It turned out to be the minions of the murderer. What a coincidence! Although it is suspected that the big one is bullying the small ones, for the sake of 'righteousness', I have to let you suffer a little bit..."

Master Pipa gently used the pick to stir the strings of the pipa, and when he was about to take action, he suddenly felt a feeling of being watched.

"Who's over there!"

Monk Fayi turned around and saw the figure looking over not far away. He was a young man with burgundy hair wearing a wind shadow hat and a light-colored cloak. Behind him, there was a row of people wearing faceless masks. , a guard wearing a large trench coat.

"Gaara? How could it be so fast..."

Before the operation was fully launched, the assassination target came to his doorstep.

"Has the plan been leaked? There is a traitor among us, or... am I betrayed?"

Among all the people involved, except for a few hidden bounty hunters, the others were sand ninjas. Only the existence of the monk Fayi was very embarrassing. Although Fuyi persuaded him, he actually did not give any guarantee. He was embarrassed and angry. He got carried away and self-hypnotized. This was a sure-win move to carry out "just punishment" on the evil big shot, so he volunteered to assassinate Feng Ying. Now that he thought about it, it seemed too reckless.

There was no strange expression on the visitor's face, and he didn't even mean to say too much. He said to himself:

"With this appearance, I walked in the 'Demon Desert' and trapped many people who wanted to fish in troubled waters! At dawn, the assassinations will probably cease, so I will treat you as the last resort..."

Monk Hoichi, who realized that he was in a bad situation, quickly deployed the mana barrier, Thousand Arrow Pillar, to protect himself, and then used the mana sealing technique, Senjulisu, to turn the runes on his body into snake-like chains, and "Gaara" "Entangled and bound, and submerged into its body, intending to absorb all the tailed beast's chakra.

"Arrogant guy, you underestimate me..."

"You are the one who is arrogant!"

"Gaara", who didn't feel anything was wrong at all, reached out and grabbed the seal chain, pulled it back suddenly, and dragged Master Pipa down from the height and fell to the ground.

"How can you still move? The sealing technique inherited from Fenfu is the nemesis of the tailed beasts and jinchūriki. You should be incapable of resisting... Wait, why can't you absorb the tailed beast chakra?"

"Idiot, who told you that the enemy you are facing is a Jinchūriki?"
