Fooling Each Other

"The one with golden hair was killed by Kakashi-sensei. As for the one who used the puppet, I don't know. Sakura, you and Granny Chiyo fought with him. Did you two defeat him?"

Seeing that Gaara was resurrected and no longer a jinchuuriki, Naruto felt happy for him from the bottom of his heart.

"No, Sasori was really too powerful. In addition to the Third Kazekage puppet, he also had a lot of other puppets. Using the Red Secret Technique: Performance of a Hundred Puppets, he was able to control around a hundred puppets at once. Those puppets also had various elemental jutsus and weapons."

"His puppet-turned body was the key to that technique. He could control them all without any time lag. But that was not the scariest thing. In the end, he used another secret technique called the Thousand Puppets Transformation. With that move, he could summon a thousand puppets, and all of them could be combined into one giant puppet."

Not only can he use all the abilities that I mentioned before, but he can also execute all kinds of attacks that are extremely difficult to dodge and defend against. In short, even if Granny Chiyo and I joined hands, we would still not be a match for him. If not for because he was not fighting us seriously, we would have died long ago."

Sakura explained Sasori's abilities, causing many of the Puppet Masters present to gasp. Sasori was their idol.

Although they were now enemies, as Puppet Masters, they could clearly understand how terrifying Sasori was. Especially Kankuro. He understood Sasori's terrifying Puppet Technique even more.

Perhaps he would surpass Sasori in the future in terms of controlling puppets. But it was simply impossible for him to surpass Sasori in terms of puppet crafting. Sasori's works were simply legendary.

"Then, how did the two of you come here safely?" Tenten asked doubtfully. The others were also the same. They did not believe that Sasori would let go of Sakura and Chiyo.

"That is because..." Sakura glanced at the crowd and found that they all wanted to know, so she no longer hid it,

"That was because when Chiyo and I were about to die, Ryoha came. He also seemed to want to collect Tailed Beasts like the Akatsuki. After knowing that the Kazekage had been captured and his tailed beast had been stripped from his body, Ryoha was very angry, so he fought with Sasori. In the end, he killed him. You should know what happened afterward."

Sakura was worried about Kakashi and the others. She was worried that it would be embarrassing for them if she spoke further, so she did not continue. However, although she didn't say anything more, it didn't mean that the others would not ask. After all, this was a big matter.

"What? Are there still more people collecting tailed beasts? Sasori is so powerful, but he was actually killed?" All of a sudden, the ninjas of Sunagakure were boiling. Sasori was someone who could defeat their Kazekage. Moreover, he was a legendary figure in their village in the past, but he died just like that.

"Who is that Ryoha?" More ninjas wanted to know who Ryoha was. After all, not many people knew who Ryoha was.

"How could that be?" Kankuro's reaction was relatively slow. He found it hard to believe. No matter what, Gaara was Ryoha's brother-in-law. How could he aim for his Shukaku?"

However, he soon noticed that Gaara and Temari were looking at him like he was an idiot. He immediately reacted. Sakura said this to cover up his relationship with the Suna. Ryoha's real purpose was to avenge Gaara.

"I didn't expect things to get more and more complicated..." Kakashi shook his head. Akatsuki alone was troublesome enough, and there was also Ryoha, who kept appearing and disappearing.

Moreover, according to the intelligence, Ryoha had some extremely powerful people around him. Now, after more than two years of improvement, who knew how terrible it would be? Moreover, in Kakashi's opinion, Ryoha might be more threatening than the Akatsuki, because Ryoha's growth speed and potential were too enormous.

"So what happened in the end?" Although Gaara had just woken up, he also wanted to know what happened, so he pretended to be curious.

"Ah, about that. In fact, we all fought with Ryoha just now. Unfortunately, we were all defeated by him."

Naruto was a little embarrassed. He was so honest that Kakashi immediately facepalmed and did not know what to say. However, there was nothing to hide, and they didn't need to be afraid of losing face. After all, they were fortunate to survive Ryoha's attacks this time.

Moreover, even if they lost a little bit of face, the Sunagakure was able to learn how much of a threat Ryoha was. When Konoha needed help from Suna, the village would have no room to shirk their responsibility. After all, Konoha had helped Suna this time.

After learning how dangerous Ryoha was, Suna would have no choice but to send a few of their ninjas in case he appeared again. Kakashi already thought in his heart. He was really worthy of being called a genius. With this, Suna just jumped into a big hole together with Konoha.

Suna would understand why Kakashi's team got wiped out so easily after learning the extent of Ryoha's power. Kakashi was able to save face.

Therefore, it was not unreasonable for Kakashi not to interrupt Naruto's honest explanation.

"What?" Initially, the villagers of Sunagakure thought that the ninjas from Konoha were all very power full after they were able to rescue Gaara. Having such an ally made them feel very relieved. Now that they heard that even the Konoha bunch was no match for Ryoha, wouldn't they think that they should work together against Ryoha's future threats?

"Huh?" Gaara felt a little funny. He didn't expect that Ryoha would deceive so many people to take revenge for me. Collecting Tailed Beast? The joke was too much for Gaara.

It was reasonable for Ryoha to collect Bloodline Limits. But how could he collect tailed beasts? If he wanted to collect them, he would have done so back then.

But now was not the time to think about this. There were still some things to do. "Everyone, let's pray for Granny Chiyo together."

Gaara was grateful from the bottom of his heart for Chiyo, who had sacrificed her life to save her precious village. If she had not saved him, Gaara might not have known that the people in the village loved their Kazekage very much.
