Chapter 250: Slaying Sasori, Dividing the One-Tail! (Seeking Subscriptions)
If Kakashi had heard Sarutobi Asuma's words, he would have cursed.
Although, when he saw Sasori of the Red Sand's true body was also a puppet, he, like Senju Tobirama, immediately thought of Sasori of the Red Sand's potential weaknesses.
"No wonder he could heavily injure Father and kill the Third Kazekage, and even kill the Fourth Kazekage with Orochimaru..."
Kakashi looked up at the Third Kazekage puppet in the air.
He had to deal with this troublesome puppet first.
The Third Kazekage's Magnet Release had too wide a kill radius.
Moreover, to a certain extent, it could interfere with his Flying Thunder God Technique.
Of course.
Being proficient in Lightning Style, he was also, to a certain extent, more adaptable to Magnet Release.
He had even tried to develop Magnet Release before.
His current powerful Lightning Style ability could, in turn, influence Magnet Release, although only slightly.
"But that's enough..."
Kakashi withdrew his gaze from the Third Kazekage puppet, and then his figure shot towards Sasori of the Red Sand's true body like a blue lightning bolt.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Giant blocks of Iron Sand of different shapes rained down from the sky, leaving huge craters on the ground.
Kakashi's figure flickered, constantly dodging, forward, backward, left, or right.
His speed was extremely fast, yet the Third Kazekage puppet was not weak either, always preventing him from getting close to Sasori of the Red Sand's true body.
However, during this process, he also placed various kunai.
Suddenly.
Under Sasori of the Red Sand's surprised gaze, Kakashi gave up his one-sided evasion.
Brilliant sword light flashed, and a huge cone was cut in half by Kakashi's blade.
Sasori of the Red Sand immediately sensed that a portion of the Iron Sand had completely lost its control.
"It's the Lightning Style interfering with the magnetism... However, this loss is much smaller than your Chakra consumption!"
Sasori of the Red Sand chuckled, not paying much attention.
A window opened in the chest of the Third Kazekage puppet, releasing a large amount of Chakra, and more Iron Sand appeared.
"Magnet Release: Iron Sand World Method!"
Seeing Kakashi constantly approaching, Sasori of the Red Sand manipulated the puppet to use a wide-ranging attack.
Instantly, a large, giant, irregularly grown mass of Iron Sand thorns formed a huge net, constantly extending and enveloping Kakashi.
At the same time, within this giant net, the Third Kazekage puppet also lunged down from the sky for the first time, one hand a blade, the other a high-speed spinning wind blade, striking directly at Kakashi.
"Even with the Sharingan, it's difficult to dodge such an attack."
"This Iron Sand is all highly poisonous!"
"This time, the poison is much more potent than what your father experienced."
Sasori of the Red Sand said with a smile, full of confidence.
The timing was perfect, and Kakashi's figure lost its footing in the air.
Of course, he also noticed the kunai that Kakashi had placed earlier.
Therefore, the scale of the Iron Sand World Method was large, and most of the kunai were also within the attack.
And for those outside the attack...
Sasori of the Red Sand looked at Kakashi descending from the sky, peeled off his outer robe, opened the window in his chest, and simultaneously unsealed a scroll in his hand.
Instantly, a large number of puppets shot out from it.
Dense and numerous, they blotted out the sun.
Kakashi's pupils contracted: "This guy..."
Let alone him, even Senju Hashirama and Namikaze Minato inside the experimental base were shocked.
They understood puppet users quite well.
Controlling ten puppets with ten fingers at once was already the pinnacle for a puppet master.
But now, Sasori of the Red Sand not only turned himself into a puppet but also subverted tradition by controlling hundreds of puppets at once.
"Truly a mad genius!"
Senju Hashirama couldn't help but exclaim.
Senju Tobirama said, "That child from the Hatake family probably can't defeat him alone."
This kind of human wave tactics, coupled with potent poison, meant that even a small mistake could lead to an irreparable outcome.
The Sharingan isn't all-powerful, you know!
"I believe in Kakashi!"
Sarutobi Asuma chuckled.
Meanwhile, on the battlefield.
Under the Iron Sand World Technique, Kakashi dodged the iron sand's attack in an extremely awkward pose, but facing the Third Kazekage's high-speed assault, he had no room to maneuver.
Sasori of the Red Sand glared menacingly, "Let's see where you can run!"
Boom!
The Third Kazekage puppet landed, kicking up dust.
"Hm?"
Sasori of the Red Sand scanned the surroundings and found that he couldn't pinpoint Kakashi.
Clearly, in addition to the kunai deployed earlier, there were other arrangements.
"He escaped?"
Sasori of the Red Sand snorted.
However, when the dust settled and he saw the sword by the Third Kazekage puppet, Sasori of the Red Sand immediately sensed something was wrong.
But before he could control the Third Kazekage puppet, Kakashi's figure reappeared, standing on the hilt of the sword. Accompanied by the sound of Chidori, Kakashi crouched on the hilt, his lightning-covered blade slicing the Third Kazekage puppet in two with a loud bang, scattering it into pieces.
With the loss of the Third Kazekage puppet, the Iron Sand World Technique collapsed, and the iron sand fell everywhere.
Sasori of the Red Sand's eyes narrowed, "The Fourth Hokage's Body Flicker Technique is indeed a bit troublesome!"
Kakashi could escape at any time and reappear through the scattered kunai.
And at this moment.
On another battlefield in the distance.
Yūhi Kurenai finally unleashed the Genjutsu known as [Dream Space].
She didn't use her Kekkei Genkai, the Dream Eye, because she couldn't find an opportunity to activate it visually.
Once [Dream Space] was activated, even Uchiha Obito was pulled into the dream.
And it was a double dream.
As a result, Shizune immediately broke free from her entanglement, spun around, and charged directly towards Kakashi's location.
Sasori of the Red Sand looked at Shizune charging towards him and instead showed a smile.
With such a "hostage," Kakashi couldn't just escape now, could he?
"It seems you're a bit more troublesome than your father."
Sasori of the Red Sand didn't make a move immediately.
Kakashi landed, pulled out his sword, and said calmly, "You're also a bit more troublesome than your parents."
Sasori of the Red Sand let out a cold snort. The steel cable coated with potent poison extending from his abdomen slithered out like a python, and at the same time, two spinning blades extended from his lower back.
Just then, Shizune also arrived, stopping beside Kakashi.
"Kakashi, be extremely careful of his poison."
"Although I brought an antidote this time, I doubt it will be effective."
Shizune glanced at the dense swarm of puppets in the air, solemnly took out two talismans, "These are Sage Talismans made by Asuma."
Kakashi took the talismans and said, "Understood!"
"You be careful too!"
Shizune nodded, "I'll cover you!"
"Are you done discussing?"
Sasori of the Red Sand chuckled. The next moment, the puppets in the air moved in unison and then charged down at Kakashi and Shizune like meteors.
"Go!"
Kakashi grunted, his body covered in lightning, and he took the lead with his sword.
Shizune followed closely.
Boom boom boom!
Puppet after puppet was blown up by Shizune's punches.
At this moment, the usually gentle and calm her displayed a fierce side.
Her powerful Chakra Control allowed her Monster Strength to be in no way inferior to Tsunade's.
Inside the experimental base, Uzumaki Kushina was very nervous.
There were too many puppets!
It was essentially Shizune and Kakashi facing over a hundred enemies.
"Asuma, aren't you worried about Shizune at all?"
Naruto Uzumaki couldn't help but say, looking at Sarutobi Asuma who was watching the battle with a smile.
Sarutobi Asuma shook his head, "Don't worry, she'll be fine."
Namikaze Minato introduced to Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama, "Shizune is Tsunade's disciple, and she's a medical ninja."
Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama weren't surprised. They could tell that Shizune's chakra outburst technique originated from the Senju Clan, so it was normal for her to be Tsunade's disciple.
But Namikaze Minato added, "Of course, she's also Asuma's wife."
Senju Hashirama and Senju Tobirama looked at Sarutobi Asuma in unison.
"How did you do that?"
Senju Hashirama asked with great curiosity, not showing anger.
Senju Tobirama watched quietly, but his gaze also carried a question.
They wouldn't interfere in the affairs of young people.
Sarutobi Asuma smiled, "Personal charm!"
Naruto Uzumaki almost rolled her eyes upon hearing that.
Just then.
On the battlefield, a puppet suddenly lunged towards Yūhi Kurenai.
Shizune's expression remained unchanged, but she had to change direction immediately to intercept the two puppets.
And at that moment, Sasori of the Red Sand controlled his steel wires and shot out, heading straight for Shizune. His body also flew up, propelled through the air by the two spirals on his back.
"Shizune!"
Kakashi shouted.
Shizune turned her head, and the steel wire rapidly enlarged in her eyes.
She twisted and dodged.
The steel wire, coated with potent poison, brushed past her.
However, Shizune's right hand, clad in a glove, caught the steel wire, and then she began to pull with all her might.
Kakashi retreated, moving closer to Shizune. He weaved and weaved, shattering the attacking puppets one by one.
Suddenly.
Sasori of the Red Sand, suspended in the air, faltered.
The steel wire had reached its limit!
"This guy..."
Sasori of the Red Sand felt his body lose control.
Shizune, holding the steel wire with both hands, swung Sasori of the Red Sand around like a chain.
Bang, bang, bang!
Puppets exploded, smashed to pieces by Sasori of the Red Sand.
Finally, with a loud crash, Sasori of the Red Sand was slammed onto the ground by Shizune.
Coincidentally, a kunai left by Kakashi was nearby.
Almost simultaneously, Kakashi vanished from his spot and appeared beside Sasori of the Red Sand in the dust. The glint of his blade flashed as Sasori of the Red Sand's puppet body was torn to shreds.
Most importantly.
The regeneration core in Sasori of the Red Sand's left chest was also severed by Kakashi's strike.
Instantly.
The puppets charging at Shizune and Yūhi Kurenai lost all control and fell to the ground.
Without even a last word, Sasori of the Red Sand was killed by Kakashi's blade.
On the other side.
Uchiha Obito broke through the [Dream Space] and his body sank into the ground, disappearing.
At the research base.
Sarutobi Asuma dispersed the water screen and said with a smile, "The show is over."
Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but ask, "Is the One-Tail okay?"
"Father, don't worry, it's been separated."
Sarutobi Asuma replied.
As he spoke, a shadow clone of his walked in from outside, holding a black basin. "The One-Tail is here!"
Separating the One-Tail was an easy task for Sarutobi Asuma.
Of course.
This couldn't be hidden from Nagato, who was in charge of the sealing.
But Nagato was also one of their own.
Taking the sealing container, Sarutobi Asuma glanced at it and said, "With the One-Tail captured and the Tenshin Group joining the Akatsuki Organization, even if the Feudal Lord of the Land of Fire calls for it, the major ninja villages won't have the time to start a joint war."
Of course.
Sarutobi Asuma wouldn't give the Feudal Lord of the Land of Fire a chance to collude with other ninja villages.
"Splitting the Tailed Beasts?"
"A very clever idea."
Senju Hashirama leaned over to look at the two mini Tailed Beasts in the bathtub and said with a smile, "It seems Asuma, you've completely surpassed us!"
Splitting the Tailed Beasts.
To be honest, he couldn't do it.
Senju Tobirama glanced at the bathtub and asked, "Is it a sacred tool left by the Sage of Six Paths?"
Namikaze Minato smiled and said, "No, it's Asuma's."
Senju Tobirama turned to look at Sarutobi Asuma, becoming even more curious, "You've mastered Yin-Yang Release, have you reached the level of the Sage of Six Paths?"
Facing this question, Sarutobi Asuma thought carefully and replied, "If we consider the Sage of Six Paths as a level, calling it the Six Paths level, then I have indeed reached it."
"However, it's probably impossible to determine who is stronger or weaker."
"Unless we use Reanimation Jutsu to revive the Sage of Six Paths as well."
The last sentence made everyone freeze.
Revive the Sage of Six Paths with Reanimation Jutsu?
"That's impossible, isn't it?"
"That requires information about the Sage of Six Paths!"
Senju Tobirama said.
He had developed this jutsu, so he knew it best.
The Sage of Six Paths was a figure from a thousand years ago; where would they find a corpse to get biological information?
However, Sarutobi Asuma was just saying it.
But Senju Tobirama's words made him unable to help but ponder.
Could he reanimate the Sage of Six Paths?
The corpse of the Sage of Six Paths was definitely impossible to find.
But his chakra might not be.
With chakra, Sarutobi Asuma could also cast Reanimation Jutsu.
Could he control it?
...
At the same time.
Inside a cave covered by a barrier.
Tobi's figure appeared, shouting, "Senior Sasori was killed by Kakashi!"
"I almost didn't make it back; that one named Yūhi Kurenai mastered a very powerful Genjutsu!"
Uka chuckled, "What a shame!"
"In that case, we need to hurry!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the projection of Deva Path Pain appeared, and he quickly formed hand seals.
*BOOM!*
The earth shook, and the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path rose from the ground.
Uka and Tobi both flew up, landing on one of the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path's fingers.
Immediately after, projections of other Akatsuki Organization members also appeared.
"Fūinjutsu, Nine-Headed Dragon Sealing Technique!"
Deva Path Pain formed hand seals, and the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path immediately spewed out streams of chakra dragons.
The chakra dragons enveloped the unconscious Gaara and began to extract the One-Tail.
Time trickled by, and as night fell, the One-Tail was finally completely absorbed into the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path.
Deva Path Pain said, "Uka, Tobi, you two leave immediately; the people from Konoha are almost here."
After speaking, the projections disappeared one by one, and then the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path also vanished with a poof.
Landing on the ground, Tobi immediately sank down, "Senior, I'll be going ahead!"
Tobi left.
Uka glanced at Gaara on the ground, then also left the cave.
The rest of the matter would naturally be handled by others.
