Chapter 110, This is My Konoha  

In Konoha Village, the Deva Path, Asura Path, and Animal Path, who were fighting fiercely with Guy, suddenly stopped.

"You're a good ninja of Konoha, but I'm not in the mood to play with you anymore," said Pain as he flew into the sky.

"The battles between great nations always affect ordinary people. Only by experiencing the same pain can people learn to cherish a peaceful life."

Pain ascended until he could overlook Konoha Ninja Village below.

"Feel the pain, contemplate the pain, accept the pain, understand the pain, mortals. From now on, feel the pain."

"Super Shinra Tensei."

In a flash of white light, Guy's eyes completely lost color, as if the whole world had disappeared. Not just him, but the entire Konoha experienced an extremely powerful shockwave.

"I am Pain, a god."

Konoha, which had built an era, was destroyed, and the entire center of the village collapsed. However, many ninjas survived.

"Sasuke-kun, please save everyone, please..." Sakura, who had grown up, looked desperately at Pain in the sky and swallowed hard.

Pain felt something in his heart. Hearing Sakura's voice, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.

"Little girl, you have to know that the chief culprit who caused this tragedy is Sasuke Uchiha," said Pain.

Although he also planned to use this method to force out the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, he never did it. It was Sasuke's doing.

A whirlwind blew up, and Pain, who was waiting for Sasuke to appear, looked back and saw that it was a pretty girl.

Compared to Sakura's despair, Hinata mustered up the courage to stand up to Pain.

"As weak as you are, do you want to challenge me?" Pain asked Hinata with interest.

According to the analysis of the Rinnegan, the girl in front of him had very thin chakra and could not be a threat at all.

Pain was amused because this girl dared to take action against an enemy that was countless times more powerful.

"It's really interesting. It seems that my vision was too narrow in the past and I ignored too many great things."

Sasuke, who was standing on the rock wall, did not take action because he found that Hinata had come out, so he simply continued to watch.

**It's no wonder that Hinata, who is usually weak-tempered, would step forward at such a time. It's commendable for her courage** he thought.

In the field, Hinata gathered a large amount of chakra in her hands and used the advanced secret technique inherited by the Hyuga family—the Gentle Step Twin Lion Fists. Even a jonin would fall to the ground instantly if hit.

However, the strength gap between Hinata and Pain was too great to intimidate him at all. Instead, she was beaten to a bloody pulp. Pain didn't care about beauty, so he aimed directly at Hinata's face with all his might.

"Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms."

Just when Pain's fist was about to fall on Hinata's face again, a purple chakra sword struck.

The sword was stuck diagonally in the ground, and Sasuke held Hinata's soft waist in his arms, stood gently on the hilt of the sword, and asked softly, "Miss Hinata, are you okay?"

Such a gentle Sasuke. Hinata only had one thought in her mind at this time, and she didn't even ask why Sasuke appeared here.

Sasuke looked around with a smile on his face, "Hey, I'm late, and this beautiful place has been damaged."

Hinata was unusually shy and didn't know where to place her little hands. She really didn't have the face to see anyone now.

Sasuke found that Hinata was really cute like this. He hadn't encountered shy girls often.

"Sasuke Uchiha, the last member of the Uchiha clan, I know you are strong, but I will not let you destroy the place where I have lived since I was a child," said Shikamaru solemnly, with cold eyes and determination, just like a righteous man.

In Hinata's eyes, Sasuke's image became taller and more powerful, and she couldn't help but wonder if there was another hidden reason behind Sasuke-kun's change.

When it's time to cooperate with your performance, Pain is in such a state now, but Sasuke's position shouldn't be disrupted casually. The two began to show off their acting skills.

"Do you think you can stop me, Konoha's hero, Uchiha Sasuke?" Pain challenged.

"How will you know if you don't try?" Sasuke retorted.

In the eyes of the villagers, Sasuke suppressed Pain and beat him. For a while, he was the center of attention, and more and more ninjas noticed this.

Sakura looked at the figure fighting Pain in surprise, "Sasuke-kun, great, Sasuke-kun is back. Now everyone is saved."

When they were close, Pain's voice reached Sasuke's ears, "Sasuke, you're almost here, you're really going to knock me away."

"You don't need to tell me that, I will do it."

"Eight Gates Released Formation, Gate of Wonder."

Purple-black chakra soared into the sky, more intense than Guy's Eight Gates. With just one kick, Sasuke broke Pain's leg, and one kick after another, the powerful cyclone lifted Pain into the sky.

"Dragon Fist!"

A punch from bottom to top knocked Pain several hundred meters away. Pain used this opportunity to escape, as he was just a human body and would not feel pain. As long as Sasuke did not destroy this body, Nagato would not care too much.

"Sasuke Uchiha wins!" one of the surviving ninjas screamed.

"Don't let down your guard, you traitor!" another ninja shouted.

Sakura punched the ninja hard, "Don't go too far! Sasuke-kun saved the village."

Sakura knew that Tsunade-sama would favor Sasuke, so she had no fear.

Returning to the village again, Sasuke muttered, "I've never seen Konoha turned into a ruined city. It is quite artistic."

Kakashi, Yamato, and Sai had secretly killed all the targets, and the three successfully reunited with Sasuke.

Kakashi suddenly said, "Guy knows a lot of things. Should we deal with him?"

Sasuke waved his hand, "No, no one will believe Guy's words. On the contrary, if he doesn't comply, he'll be labeled a rogue ninja."

Kakashi knew that as long as he insulted Guy, Guy would fall into a place of eternal disgrace, but he did not want to deal with his former friends this way. Even if he had to, he wanted to fight with dignity.

Sasuke's return to the village had been smooth, but some people still stood up to object.

It turned out to be a member of the Sarutobi family, no wonder he was so eager to jump out.

Sarutobi Ueda came up to question, not noticing that Tsunade's face turned livid.

"Sasuke, you haven't explained clearly why you betrayed Konoha in the first place."

"It was Orochimaru who forced me to pursue power," Sasuke replied rudely. He was considering whether to kill this guy. Although it would have a bad impact, who dared to resist him now?

"No matter what, it was your own choice to betray Konoha. Is it our fault?" Ueda said with ill intentions. His purpose was simple, to provoke everyone to hate Sasuke.

"Hahaha, I don't blame you." Sasuke laughed wildly. Sure enough, he was still too rough and couldn't listen to other people's objections.

He drew his sword, and with a flash of light, Ueda's head fell to the ground instantly. His eyes were wide open, until his death, he couldn't believe that Sasuke dared to kill him in front of everyone.

"Everyone, if you have any dissatisfaction with me, just say it. I like to hear others criticize me the most," Sasuke said with high spirits and looked intently at the room.

No one dared to speak at this time. They were not fools. Even Shikamaru was careful.

"It seems that everyone is very satisfied with me!"

After Sasuke finished speaking, Tsunade glanced at Sasuke secretly, her heart filled with love, and then said,

"Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, I announce a major decision."

"I appoint Sasuke as the new leader of Root. He will be responsible for commanding all ninjas in Konoha."
