Chapter 405 The Great Destruction of Sunagakure Begins

After countless hardships and at the cost of serious injuries, they finally reclaimed the three generations of puppets. As everyone knows, a puppeteer without his puppets is like a fish on a chopping board.

"Sasori of the Red Sand, put down Gaara and surrender. You have nowhere to escape." Granny Chiyo controlled the remaining six puppets and surrounded them from all sides.

Seeing the victory, the surrounding ninjas moved closer, but most of them dispersed to carry out rescue operations in various parts of the village.

The Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, descended from mid-air and slowly walked forward. However, what he said next shocked everyone, and the morale that had just been restored was completely shattered.

"Scorpion, although you didn't kill the Third Kazekage, modifying his body is a grave crime. However, if you let go of Gaara and atone for your sins, I can forgive your past mistakes. Sasori, Sunagakure is ultimately your home!"

The remaining ninjas nearby were instantly enraged upon hearing this.

Listen to this, listen to what kind of talk this is.

What do you mean by "it wasn't him who killed him"?

Suddenly, they felt like clowns, and the Jonin who had just died were the clowns among clowns.

Are the lives of ordinary ninjas not important?

Fourth Kazekage, how come we never knew you were such a virtuous and loving person?

It would be better to just say that the Third Kazekage has already forgiven him!

Scorpion remained expressionless, holding the baby in his arms. The two looked very similar, and if he weren't so young, he would have looked like an old man.

He gently stroked the baby's face, then took out a bundle of scrolls from his bosom, each scroll bearing the character "百" (hundred).

However, just as he was about to release the puppet, dark runes suddenly appeared on the surface of the Fourth Kazekage Rasa's body, his chakra instantly became unbalanced, and his body tilted forward uncontrollably.

Changxin, who had been hiding in the shadows, suddenly appeared. He maintained the hand seal with one hand and held a specially made kunai in the other, piercing Rasa's heart.

"You..." Before he could finish speaking, Luo Sha's pupils instantly lost their light.

Changxin chuckled and said, "Fourth Generation Lord, you really have a bad memory, forgetting that I'm even here. You should clean up the blood that's spilled on you properly."

Having said that, he casually put the corpse into a scroll, picked up his brush to paint, summoned a giant bird, leaped onto it, and urged, "Stop playing around, time is running out, we should go."

In fact, Changxin was a little puzzled. Since Sasori of the Red Sand had already captured the Jinchuriki, why did he have to delay for so long?

What puzzled him even more was that so many Sand Village ninjas on the scene simply surrounded the area without attacking, remaining completely on the sidelines.

But on second thought, he understood somewhat. After all, being treated like that by such important figures would make anyone feel a bit rebellious.

However, he always felt that there was probably more to this than met the eye, and it would be best to leave as soon as possible.

"Understood." Sasori of the Red Sand remained indifferent, retrieved the puppet remains of the Third Kazekage, and leaped onto the giant bird.

The two flew away as the ink-colored bird flapped its wings and soared into the distance.

Behind her, Granny Chiyo shouted hoarsely, "Sasori of the Red Sand, put down the Fourth Kazekage, put down Gaara, and give them back to me!"

Unfortunately, she was already old and could not run for long periods of time. In addition, she could not fly, so how could she catch up?

In the end, all we could do was watch as the enemy escaped unscathed.

She knelt on the ground, looking at the mess in the village, and aged considerably in an instant.

It was all her own doing. If she had known it would turn out this way, she should have... But that was her grandson after all, could she really bring herself to do it?

High above, unnoticed by her, Aburame Shisei formed a hand seal and quietly collected the lingering resentment of the Fourth Kazekage's soul into a white jade bottle.

"Sigh, the Akatsuki members are still too inexperienced. They can't even kill cleanly, leaving their souls behind for others to reincarnate through Edo Tensei?"

Then, looking at the rosy glow spreading across the sky, he realized that many of the dead villagers of Sunagakure had let go of their resentment and transformed into Buddhas.

"What a waste, what a waste. Even if you were to become Buddhas, you would not be able to reincarnate normally, and in the end, you would only benefit the Sage of Six Paths."

However, there was nothing that could be done about it. After all, his soul ninjutsu was not yet fully mastered, and he was unable to intercept those souls that had no resentment and were willing to become Buddhas.

Just then, two children, one big and one small, crawled out of the rubble in the sandpit, gazing longingly at Granny Chiyo.

Chiyo's heart clenched, her tears instantly stopping. She wiped her face, stood up, and shouted, "No, we can't let this go. Gather everyone and go after them! They can't have gone far. We must bring back the Fourth Hokage and our Tailed Beasts!"

The surrounding Sand Village ninjas were extremely opposed, but when they thought of their loved ones being killed and their homes being destroyed, they decided to go after them and help them, after all, the child was innocent.

"Grandma Chiyo, count me in." A young man stepped forward. Although he wasn't a ninja, he was willing to lend a hand.

Many ninjas were also awakened to some of their conscience by this boy and decided to go with Granny Chiyo.

"Temari, Kankuro, you stay here. Don't worry, Grandma will definitely bring your little brother back this time." Grandma Chiyo made a promise to the two children, patted their heads, rallied her spirits, and turned to chase after them.

Chiyo was accompanied by more than sixty Chunin ninja from Sunagakure.

The reason there are only Chunin is because almost all of the Jonin have been killed or injured.

The remaining Jonin had to stay behind to oversee the overall situation and direct the other Genin to clear the sand and gravel and rescue the people.

Their father died, their younger brother was arrested, and even the uncles and aunts around them looked at them with hostility.

Temari and Kankuro huddled together, wrapped in blankets, not daring to cry loudly, only sobbing quietly.

Now they just hope that Granny Chiyo will keep her word and bring her brother back safely.

"Sister, you said I love him..."

At this moment, a group of people descended from the sky. The old village chief, Nanshi, and Tina joined forces and killed the three remaining Jonin.

The Swordsmen and the Holy Knights swarmed forward, chopping off the hands and feet of the disobedient ninjas who were preparing to resist.

The ninjas, who had already lost their will to fight, were further demoralized by this sneak attack, and many of them laid down their weapons.

Right now, their strongest are only Chunin, while the enemy has hundreds of people, and each of them is at least Jonin level.

When did such a terrifying group of beings appear in the ninja world?

And how did the ninjas from the small countries like the Land of Demons, Dragon Village, Snow Village, Sound Village, and Star Village suddenly unite?

"Lay down your weapons now, and those who surrender will not be killed!"
