Escape From Konoha Chapter 499

Chapter 499 Where the soul is (2)

"What's that...tail?"

People on the watchtower saw a thick black shadow sweeping out directly from the sand ball hole, and then Naruto's shadow clones scattered around were swept away with just one blow, and were surprised.

As for the true face of that black shadow, due to its speed, many people did not see it clearly.

But Gaara's abnormal situation at the moment, they can clearly feel it.

In fact, if it wasn't for the barrier that blocked most of the Chakra breath from leaking out, maybe they would have a more intuitive understanding of the situation in the field.

"No, it's the arm."

Kakashi said the answer accurately, with a serious expression on his face.

Although he expected that there would be a scene where the tailed beast Chakra leaked in this game, the role was wrong.

In his estimation, the probability of Naruto revealing the Tailed Beast Chakra first would be higher, but he didn't expect the situation to be reversed now, and Gaara was forced to a dead end first.

Of course, it cannot be said to be a dead end.

It's better to say that it's the bitter fruit caused by Gaara's own carelessness.

Naruto's tactics can hardly touch his body if he is careful from the beginning.

Unfortunately, Gaara is too arrogant.

I look down on Naruto, thinking that Naruto is just a ninja with some strength, a small character who can be easily dealt with without much effort.

And it was this carelessness that caused Gaara to be successfully attacked by Naruto and leaked his tailed beast chakra earlier.

"Arm? Hand of Sand?"

Sasuke knew that Gaara could control the sand, condensing it into a palm to grab the enemy.

However, the thick black shadow that flashed away just now did not look like an attack by the Sand Hand, but a part of a limb of some kind of creature.

Kakashi looked at the movement in the arena below, and did not directly respond to Sasuke's question, but said: "You will know it after watching it. Compared with the paleness of words, what you see with your own eyes is more authentic."

After all, under normal circumstances, the matter of Tailed Beast and Jinchuriki would not be disclosed to the subordinates.

Even Chunin knows very little about the details.

Only when you reach the level of Jonin will you pay attention to the issues of Tailed Beast and Jinchuriki.

With different classes, the burden on one's body will naturally increase accordingly.

For the time being, Kakashi doesn't want Sasuke and others to take on responsibilities and obligations that he can't afford, even if they are Naruto's teammates.

"cut."

Regarding Kakashi's answer, it can be said that Sasuke expected it, or it can be said that it was unexpected.

I had to watch the game below patiently, waiting for the so-called answer to appear.

"This guy's breath suddenly became bad... What's going on?"

Naruto swallowed his saliva with a grunt. The breath lingering on the surface of Gaara's sand ball made him feel familiar, but at the same time he was a little uneasy and uneasy. A heart beat in his throat, as if it might pop out of his mouth at any time, pounding wildly.

"...Uzumaki...Naruto..."

The hoarse voice with a bit of coldness, like a vicious spell, was transmitted through the black hole of the maracas, entangled in Naruto's ears.

Naruto couldn't help shivering, and swallowed again.

For some unknown reason, his limbs began to tremble.

This feeling of chakra is really bad!

"...Uzumaki...Naruto!!"

If the previous ones were still in the stage of cursing, then the roaring sound from the sand ball at this time seemed to turn the tyranny inside into a real murderous aura, piercing Naruto.

"Whoa!"

Naruto let out a strange cry, and took a step back in panic.

The thick black shadow protruded from the black hole again, rushing towards him like lightning.

Naruto picked up Kunai and blocked it in front of him.

After Kunai came into contact with some kind of hard object, intense sparks immediately splashed out.

Naruto's eyes widened, and he finally saw clearly what the 'thing' rushing towards him was—the arm!

One color is sand yellow, with a monster arm branded with violet evil patterns.

The sharp claws crossed Kunai's line of defense and slashed fiercely on Naruto's shoulders. More than that, the huge and incomparable force caused Naruto's body to fly directly to the monster's arm, causing him to roll on the sand with blood spitting out of his mouth, barely standing still.

Naruto held the wound on his right shoulder. Although the wound would not cause his entire arm to be abolished, it would probably be difficult to use his right arm to fight in the future.

At this time, the sand surrounding Gaara began to crumble, exposing Gaara inside.

The image has changed very intuitively compared to before.

That weird and terrifying shape, just looking at it, can send chills down the spine.

It can no longer be described as human beings.

—I saw Gaara's left half of the body, which has been completely monsterized.

Same as the arm just now, the complexion is sandy yellow, with the mysterious pattern of violet branded on it.

That half of the body is very bloated and fat, giving Naruto the feeling of a plump civet cat.

But the half body of the avatar monster, the white part of the eyes is eroded by darkness, the pupils are a dark yellow that has lost its highlight, and the sight is as sharp as a knife blade, and it scans the surrounding circle. Even the jonin who maintain the enchantment feel that this kind of sight is not good, as if they are being stared at by some huge horror.

If it wasn't for the order from above to keep them from acting rashly for the time being, they just wanted to take a direct action and use the sealing technique to suppress the tailed beast in Gaara's body to prevent the situation from getting out of control.

The other half of Gaara is still a human face, but at this time the teeth are bared fiercely, and the saliva is constantly flowing from between the teeth, giving the impression that it is like a beast about to hunt in the forest, full of bloodthirsty and ferocious colors.

A sand-yellow tail on the back gently sweeps behind, sending dust flying.

"What is that?"

"A monster?"

"very scary!"

On the audience stage, many audience members showed nervous expressions.

Even though they were separated by a layer of enchantment, they felt great anxiety and panic in their hearts.

Although the priestesses of the ghost country also performed the skill of "transformation" and wore a mask of a demon on their faces, the essence of that is still "a cute girl wearing an interesting mask".

After all, in the important festivals of the ghost country, people wearing various monster masks to participate have long been familiar with the strangeness, but feel that this is the feeling that the other party is "performing".

But Gaara feels completely different.

No matter how you look at it, it's not just as simple as wearing a 'mask'.

But really heterogeneous.

brings greater visual impact.

"If this goes on, it feels like there will be no way to end it."

Liuli observed the reactions of the surrounding people and said to Shiraishi.

"But the current situation is not enough to suspend the game."

Gaara still retains the sanity of a ninja at this moment, and has not completely handed over his body to the tail beast to control.

Theoretically, this is still a power that Gaara can control, but not to the point of being out of control.

Since Gaara is able to control this part of the power and has not been devoured by reason, it naturally also belongs to the power of legitimation and does not belong to the power of "outside the rules".

Therefore, based on the rules of the exam, Baishi can only watch the situation evolve naturally.

Besides, Gaara's state is still a long way from the tailed beast's full body state.

This level of Tailed Beast Chakra leakage, even if it is strengthened several times, it is impossible to break the barrier around the examination room. As for whether Gaara can control the power of Tailed Beast without losing his mind, it is not Shiraishi's consideration.

"Do you need to stabilize the situation?"

Liuli with sharing eyes can more effectively suppress tailed beasts, she suggested to Shiraishi.

"Just watch it patiently and wait and see what happens."

Seeing Baishi sitting firmly on Mount Tai, Liuli could only nod her head, quietly watching the development of the field below.

If there is a sign of the tailed beast going completely berserk at that time, she will immediately go up and use Sharingan to suppress the riot.

If the Tailed Beast ran amok and caused disturbances on the scene, even if there were no casualties afterwards, the finals of the Joint Chunin Exam held by the Kingdom of Ghosts would immediately become a laughing stock in the ninja world.

In the arena, Gaara glared at Naruto with vicious eyes.

Feeling the constant pain in the back, a lot of dark and tyrannical emotions kept pouring out of my heart.

After that, he covered his head as if he had a headache, and clenched his teeth tightly.

"I didn't expect to use this form to deal with a guy like you. I will kill you! I will definitely kill you!"

The violent and ferocious colors gathered in the eyes directly made the rationality in Gaara's mind evaporate quickly.

At this time, he didn't care about the irregularities of the exam rules, but wanted to kill Naruto quickly, so that he could avenge what he had just done.

After speaking, Gaara directly raised his hand, condensed the sand under his feet into the shape of a shuriken, and floated in the air, occupying the surrounding space, aiming at Naruto's body in the distance.

Seeing the sand gather into the shape of a shuriken, Naruto understood Gaara's next plan.

Gaara uses chakra to condense the chakra, which has a hardness not weaker than steel.

If you are hit by this kind of shuriken, it is no joke.

Thinking of this, Naruto immediately jumped backwards, wanting to lengthen the distance again so that he would have more space to play.

However, when he jumped into the air, there was a piercing pain in his right shoulder, as if something was crawling inside, making his body stiff in the air for a moment.

"Haha, go to hell!"

Gaara let out a terrible laugh, and directly launched the surrounding sand shurikens.

Before Naruto's shoulder was hit by the tailed beast's claws, in fact, part of the sand was mixed into Naruto's body. As long as he cooperates with his technique, the sand incorporated into Naruto's body can make Naruto temporarily lose his mobility.

Naruto, unable to move, became a live target for Gaara's attack. He watched countless sand shurikens getting bigger and bigger in his pupils until—

Pfft!

The sound of sharp objects piercing the flesh continued to be heard, and Naruto's body fell from midair.

The arms and thighs were covered with sand shurikens, and blood gurgled out, turning into a blood man.

Naruto grunted in pain, trying to stand up from the ground with difficulty, but found that his limbs were severely injured by the sand shuriken, not to mention standing up, just sitting up drained all his strength.

And because the sand is constantly squeezed into his body, it is very difficult for his body to move a finger now.

Gaara didn't mean to defeat Naruto immediately, but waved again, a large amount of sand gathered under Naruto's body, surrounded Naruto who was unable to move, and slowly stood up his body, only his head was exposed outside.

"Damn it! Let me go!"

Naruto endured the pain in his body, did not show any surrender in front of Gaara, and expressed the unwillingness in his heart with his eyes.

Gaara looked at Naruto with cold and mean eyes, as if there was no mood swing.

Just clenched his fists hard.

As Naruto uttered a painful cry, a little blood seeped out of the sand layer surrounding him.

The painful howling echoed endlessly in the barrier, and even audiences from various countries outside the barrier could clearly hear it, making many people with weak willpower tremble.

"Left arm... right arm next."

Gaara's smile became more and more terrifying.

"Then I will destroy all the bones of your limbs!"

Like the voice of the devil from hell, it rang in people's ears.

"Ms. Kakashi, Naruto—"

Sakura looked at Kakashi eagerly, hoping that the other party would come up with a solution.

Kakashi's eyes fluctuated a little, then slowly shook his head and said: "Unfortunately, the opponent's methods are within the scope of the rules. Even I can't stop the game."

"Why, if this continues, Naruto will-"

"Sakura." Kakashi interrupted Sakura, and said seriously: "Naruto is no longer a child, he needs to be responsible for his actions. He is the one who took the initiative to take this test, so even if he becomes a **** later, we as the audience can only watch here. This is his battle. Unless he admits defeat now, or passes out, the battle will continue forever!"

Sasuke closed his eyes silently, as if he couldn't bear to continue watching.

"Damn it, it's not good for that Gaara guy to go on like this. Father, isn't he going to stop it? If Shuzuru comes out, everything will be over!"

Kankuro was also extremely anxious.

He is not very familiar with Naruto, but he is very worried that Gaara's brutal method will annoy the Allies and damage the relationship between the two parties.

Maki patted Kankuro on the shoulder, signaling him to calm down.

Although they are very anxious, as spectators, they can only watch here.

"Have you not passed out yet? The will is commendable."

Looking at Naruto who was still gnashing his teeth, Gaara's bloodthirsty smile became even more serious, his blade-like eyes glanced at Naruto's face, appreciating the miserable posture of the other party, and satisfying his inner sadistic desire at the moment.

"Who would pretend to be dead and pass out at this level, you panda eyes!"

Naruto managed to squeeze out an ugly smile from his sweaty face, and cursed at Gaara.

Strength... More strength is needed to break the sand bound to the body.

It's a pity that the Chakra in his body is not enough to support him to break free from this 'cage' on his body.

The toad that came out of the psychic has disappeared. When he used the psychic technique, he didn't inject much chakra. He just wanted to break Gaara's defense and create a gap for him to attack Gaara himself. Then he summoned the toad who was good at water escape, and then disappeared back to Mt. Myogi.

Therefore, now we must rely on a stronger force.

And all he could think of, there was only one 'person' with great power—the nine-tailed demon fox!

Thinking of this, Naruto slowly closed his eyes, and began to calm down and communicate with a certain 'existence' in his body.

Oops, this brat intends to trigger the power of Nine Tails. Compared to Gaara who is still confused, Onijima Shinobu is very clear about Naruto's plan.

The most troublesome thing about Renzhuli is not their own strength, but their mixed power that can be combined with the tailed beast.

For ordinary ninjas, it is undoubtedly the embodiment of disaster.

Onijima Shinobu subconsciously looked towards the high platform behind, as if asking whether he should stop it now.

After all, if two Jinchurikis explode Tailed Beast Chakra at the same time, he can't resist it.

Shiraishi, who is located on the high platform, naturally noticed the questioning eyes of Shinobi Onijima, but he still sat there indifferently.

This level of tail beastization does not need to be on guard yet.

Shiraishi silently let go of his perception, and surrounded Naruto on the stage.

In the dark environment, there was the sound of water droplets.

Naruto woke up from his daze, opened his eyes, and slowly raised his head to look forward.

In the prison cell made of red railings, a pair of blood-red eyes lit up.

The body is as huge as a hill, and the honed claws are as sharp as a blade.

Nine python-like tails looming behind the back, giving people great pressure.

"Little ghost, do you want to borrow the power of the old man again? I didn't expect that you would be so embarrassed just by watching the crane."

"Who are you…"

Naruto saw Kyuubi's incomparably huge body, he couldn't help but grow his mouth, and there was a hint of shock in his eyes.

"Why, you took the old man's power without telling me many times, but you don't know the old man's existence?"

Kyuubi's grinning mouth seemed to be split to the ear, revealing an extremely evil smile, staring straight at Naruto, his voice full of temptation.

"You... are you a nine-tailed demon fox?"

It was only at this time that Naruto realized what the origin of this orange fox the size of a hill was.

Sealed within the body of the deceased Fourth Hokage, the incarnation of evil and natural disasters—the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox!

So, vigilance appeared in his eyes, and he took two steps back to keep a distance from the opponent.

"snort."

Seeing Naruto's little thought, Kyuubi snorted lightly, seeming a little dissatisfied.

Demon fox?

In terms of evil, Nine Tails thinks it is too far behind humans.

So, for the nicknames given to him by humans, I feel conflicted and contemptuous.

After all, this brat is no different from the previous two Renchurikis.

He talks about reconciliation, hoping that humans and tailed beasts can live in peace, but in essence, he still regards it as a convenient tool for extracting chakra, which is hypocritical to the extreme.

"Don't you want the old man's strength? I lent you, kid, come over and tear off the talisman on it. The old man can lend you all the strength of the whole body, that fellow Shouhe, you can pinch it however you want."

Kyuubi is still coaxing, like a benevolent elder, there is no malice in his eyes, but it gives Naruto a very friendly feeling.

Naruto subconsciously walked forward, indeed as Kyuubi said, he is here to borrow strength now.

As for things like power, of course the more the better.

"That's right, that's it, come here, don't be afraid, the old man is one with you, and won't harm you..."

Compassionate and kind words kept coming out of Kyuubi's mouth. Although Naruto felt something was wrong in his heart, but after hearing Kyuubi's voice, he couldn't continue thinking, only the idea of tearing off the spell on the red railing was left in his mind.

Seeing Naruto stepping forward so consciously, without helping him to tear off the sealing spell, the eyes of Nine Tails shone with joy and excitement, and the Nine Tails behind him, like the thick tail of a giant python, swayed more cheerfully.

Soon!

Soon to be liberated!

It has had enough of the decades of dark and dark days!

As long as Naruto undoes this spell, it can regain its true freedom and will no longer be restrained and restrained by humans.

Seeing that Naruto's palm was about to touch the spell on the railing, Kyuubi's heart was raised in his throat, holding his breath, ready to go, not daring to catch his breath, for fear of disturbing Naruto's movements.

A hand stretched out from the swaying space ripples, grabbed Naruto's arm that was about to be pressed on the spell, and smiled slightly.

"You can't break the seal. Now you can't control Nine Tails. Go back to where you should go. The power has been given to you, Naruto."

The gentle yet hearty words rang in Naruto's ears.

"Eh?"

Naruto suddenly woke up from his dazed state, realizing that there was an interruption here, and his whole body was like a phantom, disappearing from the dark space like a water prison.

Seeing Naruto disappear directly from the sealed space, Kyuubi's pupils shrank, and then roared furiously at the man who suddenly appeared:

"Fourth Generation!!!"

The fierce light that seemed to kill the man in front of him burst out from Kyuubi's pupils.

The monstrous resentment and murderous intent turned into thick darkness, eroding the water prison space.

If you want to talk about the most hated ninja in the world, the man in front of you with a sunny smile can definitely be ranked in the top five.

The other four are Senju Hashirama, Uchiha Madara, Uzumaki Mito, Uzumaki Kushina!

All were ninjas who enslaved or imprisoned it!

"You still don't have a long memory, Nine-Tails. The key is not on Naruto's body, even if you tear off the spell, you won't be able to get out. At most, it will cause some confusion."

The man—that is, Minato, looked up at Kyuubi who was furious but helpless with him, and smiled.

"You bastard, come in if you have the guts, don't stay outside like a coward! The old man will kill you alive!"

Nine-Tails slapped the red railing incompetently and furiously, causing ripples on the ground.

Just when Minato was about to respond to Kyuubi's furious mood, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, he turned his head slightly, and his eyes fell obliquely behind him.

A figure came out of the darkness, only half of his body was exposed, the other half was still hidden in the darkness, shrouded in shadow.

"It seems that there are a little too many uninvited guests today, Chiba Shiraishi."

"Hehe, yes, I didn't expect that the famous Fourth Hokage really didn't die. You really lied to everyone."

The man who came out of the darkness was none other than Shiraishi.

Like an old friend reunited after a long absence, he greeted Minato with a warm and kind smile.

The unwavering aura on Minato's body made him feel a strong threat. Therefore, compared to the smile on his face, there was no smile in Shiraishi's eyes.

"You have survived in this state and have been paying attention to the changes over the years. You are really beyond my expectations, Minato. I want to ask, are you doing this to guard against me, or are you guarding against the reincarnation eye, or... are you guarding against Mt. Miaomu?"

Unfortunately, even after uttering such provocative words, Shiraishi did not see obvious emotional fluctuations on Minato's face.

The same as before, still leaking, not giving the enemy any opportunity to take advantage of it.

"Then which one do you think it is?"

Just as Shiraishi was afraid of him, Minato also made no secret of his fear of Shiraishi.

"Forget it, no matter what kind, I have gained enough today."

Shiraishi slightly tilted his head.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw behind him, a woman with long red hair was standing behind him at some point, maintaining a front and rear flanking posture with Minato, staring at him coldly.

"I have no plans to fight with you now, I just came here to confirm some things. Moreover, now I have finally confirmed one point. In the face of Mount Miaomu, your and my positions are consistent in some places."

Minato, who was originally maintaining a poker face, finally had a slight fluctuation on his face after hearing Shiraishi's words.

Noticing the change in Minato's expression, Shiraishi was a bit taken aback, but he just nodded slightly.

"Sure enough, among the leaves, you are the most troublesome one. Whether in life or after death... the will of fire is really interesting."

Baishi smiled lightly, formed a mudra with his hands, and his body dissipated in the air like a cloud, disappearing.

In the sealed space, with Shiraishi's departure, silence was restored again.
