The Third Kazekage was frustrated. Facing Shukaku’s relentless attacks, he could only defend passively.
It wasn’t that he was weaker than Shukaku. He could suppress the beast, but that didn’t mean the other Suna Shinobi could survive its attacks.
To protect his comrades, he had to focus on defense.
“Except for the Sealing Team, everyone else, retreat!” he ordered.
The other Shinobi were just getting in the way.
The Suna Shinobi quickly retreated, and Hanzō ordered the Ame Shinobi to follow suit.
“Hanzō, I need your help to subdue the One-Tail,” the Kazekage said to Hanzō.
He could suppress the One-Tail, but it was taking a toll on him.
“No problem, but will you compensate Amegakure for our losses during the attack on the Konoha camp?” Hanzō set his condition.
He hadn’t refused to help, but he wanted compensation. He had personally led fifty elite Ame Shinobi in the attack on the Konoha camp.
Only he had returned. The other fifty had been frozen by Shin.
Fifty elite Chunin… even Hanzō felt the loss. They were valuable assets.
“As long as you help me seal the One-Tail, I’ll compensate you accordingly.”
The Kazekage’s face remained impassive, though he was inwardly cursing Hanzō for taking advantage of the situation.
“Summoning Jutsu!”
Hanzō summoned his salamander.
The salamander was no match for Shukaku, but its massive size could buy them some time.
The Kazekage attacked, using his Magnet Release to create an Iron Sand cage, trapping Shukaku.
“Sealing Team, seal the One-Tail!” he yelled while continuing his assault.
Hanzō and the Kazekage used Water Release to attack Shukaku. Ebizo and Chiyo also joined the fray.
Against four Kage-level opponents, Shukaku was overwhelmed.
The Sealing Team rushed forward and used their Jutsu to seal Shukaku. It shouldn’t be a problem.
It was just the One-Tail. Compared to the Nine-Tails, which had almost destroyed Konoha, Shukaku was a minor threat.
“That useless Tanuki.”
Shin, observing from the shadows, cursed. Shukaku was weak. It hadn’t even caused any casualties before being subdued.
“No way. That’s my loot! You can’t take it from me!”
Shin appeared on Shukaku’s head in a flash, looking down at the Third Kazekage and the others.
They stopped attacking and stared at Shin.
“Uzumaki Shin, are you controlling the One-Tail?” the Kazekage asked.
“Take a guess. There might be a reward if you get it right,” Shin said with a smirk.
“The One-Tail is being controlled by the Sharingan. It’s not Uzumaki Shin. But with him here, sealing will be difficult.”
Chiyo said grimly.
To seal the One-Tail, they had to deal with Shin first. That was a problem. Shin’s strength terrified them.
They had never imagined they would fear a child.
“We have to retrieve the Tailed Beast. And Uzumaki Shin must die.” The Kazekage’s eyes hardened.
Shin was already this strong at such a young age. In the future, he might even surpass Hashirama Senju.
Hashirama Senju, the God of Shinobi, had pacified the world and brought peace to the Shinobi nations.
When he was alive, no village dared to act rashly. The First Shinobi World War had only started after his death.
If Shin reached that level of power, it would be a disaster, not just for Suna, but for the entire world, including Konoha.
No one wanted to be under someone else’s thumb.
“We can eliminate him if we work together. Attack! Don’t hold back!”
The Kazekage said, looking at Hanzō pointedly.
He wasn’t worried about Ebizo and Chiyo; they would definitely attack with full force. But Hanzō was unpredictable.
“Of course.”
Hanzō’s eyes gleamed with murderous intent. he had almost killed him several times. He hated Shin.
He wouldn’t hesitate to kill him.
“You want to kill me? How arrogant.”
Shin chuckled. They were underestimating him.
“You’re the arrogant one, Uzumaki Shin. You’re just a child. How can you act recklessly?”
Chiyo sneered.
“Old hag, you couldn’t even protect your own son. Shut up.”
Shin’s words enraged Chiyo.
“Uzumaki Shin, I’ll kill you!”
She charged at Shin. Ebizo couldn’t stop her, so he followed, afraid for his sister.
“Poor Chiyo, you’ve lost your family, puppets. Reduced to fighting with your own hands?”
Shin drew his Kusanagi sword and unleashed an incredibly fast slash, cutting through the Iron Sand cage holding Shukaku.
Shukaku roared and escaped. Under Shin’s control, it formed a Tailed Beast Bomb.
Yin and Yang Chakra mixed in a ratio of 2:8, forming a powerful sphere that shot towards the Suna camp.
The Suna Shinobi had retreated, but destroying their camp would still be a major blow.
The Kazekage paled. He wouldn’t try to block a Tailed Beast Bomb.
Even his strongest Iron Sand defense would struggle to withstand it.
The Tailed Beast Bomb was a devastating attack, more powerful than most S-rank Jutsu. Only an idiot would try to block it head-on.
BOOM!
The Suna camp was obliterated. The supplies they hadn’t been able to take with them were also destroyed.
The Kazekage’s eyes were bloodshot. Supplies were precious, especially to Suna, which was poorer than Konoha. Losing those supplies would be a major setback.
