Chapter 36: Past Hokages
At this moment, just after Neji and his group left, two figures soared into the air. They were disguised as ordinary civilians but were actually Sunagakure ninjas.
Their target was Ryujiro, and the Suna-nin wielding kunai rushed towards him.
"The pleasant atmosphere never lasts long."
"Sunagakure shinobi, you've picked the wrong opponent."
Ryujiro's indifferent voice caused the Sunagakure ninja to stiffen, facing his plain and unadorned strikes.
One by one, bloody heads rolled to the ground, filling the air with the scent of blood.
In an instant, a torrential rain of blood poured down, and Ryujiro, tired of being stained with blood, immediately left his original position.
The vivid red color splashed onto the audience seats, adding a vibrant hue.
That kid is truly terrifying.
Baki's wariness towards Ryujiro escalated once again upon seeing his emotionless gaze.
"Boom!"
Accompanied by a loud noise, Temari and Kankuro were swept away by Gaara, crashing into the rock wall.
Embedded in the rock, Kankuro and Temari felt their internal organs shaking, blood gushing from their mouths.
Both of them looked on with horror at Gaara's transformation into Shukaku's form.
Shukaku's form referred to a significant change in the body while still maintaining a human form. Gaara in this state was extremely unstable.
Enraged by the change in Gaara below, Hiruzen's eyes suddenly contracted.
"That's it!"
"So, the ominous chakra came from a tailed beast. That kid is a Jinchuriki from Sunagakure."
Hiruzen's expression turned grim.
It was evident that the Sand Village, by concealing the presence of a Jinchuriki from the Konoha Village, had been plotting with Orochimaru for a long time.
Damn Sunagakure! Previously, the Konoha Village had provided them with a large amount of funding and resources.
And now, they turned their backs at such a crucial moment.
Sunagakure Is truly ungrateful.
"Hehe, it seems, Hiruzen-sensei, that the Jinchuriki seems quite unstable. If not stopped in time, there might be another disaster similar to the Nine-Tails' attack."
Orochimaru sneered coldly.
Hiruzen shuddered. "Orochimaru, don't you have any feelings for the village?"
"Feelings for the village? How could a wanted rogue ninja like me have feelings for the village?"
"Hiruzen-sensei, it seems you're truly getting old. Even your mind is getting muddled."
---
"Kankuro! Temari!"
"Damn it! They're injured so badly."
"It seems Gaara is out of control. In that case, let him wreak havoc."
"His target is that kid. If Gaara manages to kill him, it might hurt Konoha for a while."
Baki's gaze darkened as he looked up at Ryujiro, who was smiling ambiguously.
"I'll kill you! I'll kill you!"
"I'll kill him!"
Shoo!
Gaara's figure suddenly disappeared, appearing in front of Ryujiro in an instant. His transformed right hand swept towards Ryujiro.
"Boom!"
A huge storm surged again, and the immense power seemed to destroy the audience stands above layer by layer.
As the dust settled, Ryujiro wielded his sword to block Gaara's attack.
Gaara became more excited, laughing maniacally. "That's it! Only you are worthy of being my prey."
"Killing you will prove my strength."
Ryujiro looked calmly at the ferocious Gaara. "If you want to kill me, you'll have to prove you're worthy of doing so."
But the force just now was indeed heavy. This is the power of a Jinchuriki .
Both speed and strength have been raised several levels.
"Boom Boom!"
The confrontation between the two sides destroyed the surrounding buildings, and countless debris fell from above, shaking the entire arena.
In the distance, Temari and Kankuro looked on with a mixture of fear and dread.
"That guy can actually fight with the rampaging Gaara to this extent."
"What kind of monster is this Konoha ninja?"
Kankuro's face was full of horror. Initially, he had looked down on Ryujiro, thinking that Ryujiro was doomed to die once targeted by Gaara.
But after witnessing Ryujiro's strike just now, Kankuro found his previous arrogance laughable.
He didn't even have the power to mock Ryujiro's strength. The battle had now reached a fever pitch.
Gaara relentlessly pursued Ryujiro, revealing a fierce grin. "Is this all you can do?"
"Your strength definitely doesn't end here. Are you looking down on me?!"
"I'll kill you! Killing someone stronger than me will make my value shine even more!"
Ryujiro used Body Flicker Jutsu to escape. He couldn't help but think that Gaara was truly a madman.
He did have the ability to kill Gaara instantly, but if he did so, other ninjas would definitely send reinforcements to support the Third Hokage.
In Ryujiro's mind, perhaps Hiruzen's death would be beneficial for Konoha's development.
Kakashi, who was fighting with the Sunagakure ninjas in the distance, glanced at the battle between Ryujiro and Gaara.
"As expected of a Jinchuriki, even Ryujiro seems to have some difficulty handling him."
"After all, that's the power of a tailed beast, which no longer belongs to the realm of humans."
"We must stop him quickly, or else the casualties in the village will increase!"
After kicking away a Sound-nin, Guy said solemnly.
Yes, that three-headed snake monster and the one-tailed Jinchuriki were the most troublesome.
Although the Third Hokage was old, it wasn't easy for Orochimaru, a rogue ninja, to deal with him.
Kakashi glanced at Hiruzen's position and suddenly his eyes contracted, revealing a shocked expression.
"Hey hey hey! Are you kidding me?"
"Those two people, aren't they…!"
The First Hokage and the Second Hokage!
