Konoha: Otsutsuki from the Earth

Chapter 45

While Qi Fei and the others were tracking Sasuke, Sasuke finally caught up with Gaara and his party.

In order to cover Gaara's departure, Temari volunteered to stay to stop Sasuke, but due to lack of Chakra and lack of strength, he quickly failed.

When Sasuke caught up with Gaara again, it was Kankuro's turn to stay behind and let Temari, who had returned from a serious injury, take Gaara away.But Kankuro's plan was destroyed by Shino who came quietly.

It turned out that before Sasuke chased Gaara and his party alone, Shino secretly left the female on Sasuke.According to the male insect's sense of the female's scent, Shino caught up with Sasuke, Gaara and others.

Shino has always been concerned about the fact that Kankuro surrendered without a fight during the game. He especially wanted to prove himself by winning a game with Kankuro.

Now with this opportunity, he helped Sasuke block the obstacles from Kankuro.

One uses the puppet technique of concealing the sand, and the other uses the insect repelling technique of the Younv clan. The duel between the two was evenly matched and ended in a tie.Kankuro lost his combat effectiveness due to the gnawing of the bad insects from Shino, and Shino also lost his ability to move because Kankuro's poison spread all over his body.

Without Kankuro's hindrance, Sasuke successfully caught up with Gaara and the others.At this time, Temari, who was seriously injured, had no combat effectiveness and could no longer take Gaara away.

"It's over." Looking at Gaara and Temari, Sasuke said condescendingly.

"Has Kankuro been defeated? No, this is too fast, there should be reinforcements." Temari didn't expect Kankuro not to stop Sasuke.

"Ugh—" At this moment, Gaara also covered her head and woke up in pain.

"Gara, are you alright?" Temari asked worriedly.

"Uchiha Sasuke!" Covering his head, Gaara stared at Sasuke viciously, waved away Temari with one hand, "Get out!"

"No matter what purpose you Shayin have, I will stop you here."

Recalling the monster-like giant hand he saw during the game, and the monster-like eyes seen through the small hole in the sand ball, Sasuke said, "By the way, let me see your true face."

"Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh——" Hearing Sasuke's words, Gaara held his head in more pain, and cracks began to appear on the sand armor on half of his face.

Seeing this, Temari, who was waved aside by Gaara, shouted directly: "Stop, Gaara! Did you forget the battle plan!"

"You are powerful, you named Sasuke Uchiha, you who have partners, you who have goals, you who are very similar to me! Only by killing you, as an existence that destroys everything, can I exist in this world, I To feel alive!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh——" Gaara's sand armor began to shatter at a rapid speed, and half of his body was constantly expanding, "You are...my...prey!"

As Gaara wailed, his right half of his body suddenly swelled into a khaki-yellow monster body with cursed patterns.

"Come on! Let me feel it!" Gaara's half of his face also turned into a monster, bared his teeth, opened his mouth wide, and said to Sasuke with a murderous look.

Seeing Gaara like this, Temari folded his arms in horror and closed his eyes.Even if she had seen it before, she still couldn't accept this monster-like appearance.

"That's right, that look!" Looking at Gaara's completely mutated eyes, Sasuke recalled the frightening look he had glimpsed on the field.

Feeling the strong ominous aura and killing intent constantly emanating from Gaara, Sasuke trembled with fear seeing Gaara's strange and inhuman appearance.

Just when Sasuke was afraid of Gaara's sudden mutation, Gaara preemptively rushed to Sasuke and waved his monster arm.

boom!Kacha Kacha... Sasuke jumped away hastily, but the surrounding trees were snapped off by Gaara.

"Are you afraid of me? Uchiha Sasuke!" Gaara wantonly destroyed the surrounding forest, looking for Sasuke's hiding figure.

"Is your hatred and killing intent covered up by fear? Is that all you have? Come and fight with me, confirm your existence and value, and come out if you want to know!"

Gaara's words made Sasuke recall the scene when Gaara came to him before the game.At that time, Sasuke asked Gaara why he was so obsessed with himself.

Gaara told Sasuke, because Sasuke is very similar to him, they are all people who do anything for a goal.And this kind of people are confirming their own existence and value in fighting each other.

Therefore, for Gaara, who has been pursuing his own existence value, Sasuke is the object he must kill.

Thinking of this, Sasuke thought about why Itachi would let him go on the night of the genocide, in order to let himself bear the blood feud of the clan, and kill Itachi as an avenger to avenge his parents and clan.

Since it was for revenge against Itachi, he couldn't fall down here, and couldn't show his weakness.

Feeling the hatred and anger welling up in his heart, Sasuke's original fear of Gaara dissipated.He raised his palm and condensed the Lightning Dungeon Chakra in his hand.

The sound of chirping birds attracted Gaara's attention. Seeing the flashing lights behind the tree trunk in the distance, Gaara shouted: "Let me enjoy it, Sasuke Uchiha!"

"I want to kill you with one blow!" Sasuke who opened Sharingan came out from behind the tree trunk and said to Gaara.

In the next second, the two flew out, and blue and khaki figures crossed in the air.Gaara's monster arm was directly torn in two by Sasuke's Chidori.

"Hahahaha!" Gaara laughed while clutching his injured arm after landing on the ground, "I finally know why I am so happy, defeating someone who can hurt me and taking everything from him is the meaning of my existence !"

The next moment, Gaara's injured arm healed instantly, and a long tail full of spikes grew behind him.

"What's going on with this guy..." Sasuke looked at Gaara who recovered instantly with a look of shock, he didn't expect that such a severe injury would have no effect.

"I'm coming!" Gaara rushed towards Sasuke at a faster speed.

Relying on the insight of Sharingan, Sasuke narrowly avoided Gaara's attack.However, in the middle of the flight, Gaara turned around and grabbed the branch, and the whole person slammed into Sasuke again like a slingshot.

Facing Gaara's blow, Sasuke, who had no time to dodge, was instantly knocked into the air.After breaking several trees, it landed on a branch.

"Hahaha! Is it only this level? I'll just say it, you are weak, and your hatred is weaker than mine." Looking at Sasuke who fell to the ground, Gaara mocked, "Hatred is power, you Your hatred is weaker than mine, which means your strength is weaker than mine."

"Shut up!" Thinking of his own hatred, Sasuke ignored Kakashi's warning that he could only use Chidori twice a day, stood up, and condensed the Lightning Chakra in his hand again.

"Drink—" The two roared and flew out again, and the blue and yellow figures crossed the air again.

"Well……"

The monster arm on Gaara's right half was cut off in its entirety.And Sasuke, who was covered in curse marks, also fell down in pain.

"Hahaha!" Seeing the dying Sasuke, Gaara grew a monster arm again from the left half of his body.

In order to get the meaning he wanted, and to win the final victory, Gaara mercilessly flew towards Sasuke, his huge arm turned into a spear, ready to directly crush Sasuke into a pulp.

boom!When Gaara's spear was about to stab Sasuke, a figure suddenly appeared, and Rinku kicked Gaara away with his spear.

Looking at the familiar golden hair and the swirl-painted back, Sasuke recognized Naruto who was out of breath.

"Sasuke!" Then Sakura's figure appeared next to Sasuke, checking the dying Sasuke.

"Companion..." Seeing Naruto protecting Sasuke, Gaara just wanted to taunt when he noticed a blue comet falling from the sky, heading straight towards him: "Frozen Force Concerto!"

Gaara didn't have time to dodge, and raised his hand to take the comet's attack.

Then the whole person flew backwards, and the sand armor and monster limbs all turned into shards of ice and dissipated, and the surrounding area was instantly covered with a thick layer of frost.

Kacha, Kacha, Kacha—a dozen trees were broken in a row, Gaara coughed up a mouthful of blood, and collapsed on the ground.

"Gara!" Temari on the side wanted to step forward to help, but suddenly found that he couldn't move his body.

"I'm sorry, but I can't let you get in the way, just stay here obediently with me." Not far behind Temari, Shikamaru said with a seal of hands.

"Naruto, take Sasuke to a safe place to evacuate first, and Gaara will let me handle it." Standing in the deep hole kicked out, Qi Fei said to Naruto on the tree.

"Why! I also want to fight and protect my companions!" Naruto couldn't do the thing that he hid behind his back and let his companions go through life and death.

"Naruto..." Although it was only for a moment, Sakura still clearly saw Gaara's mutated appearance, and she wanted to persuade Naruto not to go up and hold back.

"I... also..." The dying Sasuke also couldn't accept the shame of being protected by the "crane tail", and tried hard to get up from the branch.

"Hahaha... just so you're here." Without the sand armor, Gaara, who was exposed to frostbite, staggered up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said to Qi Fei and the others, " None of you can protect you, you are all going to die here today!"

boom!Gaara formed a mudra with both hands, and a huge sea of ​​sand spewed out around him.

Looking at the sand waves coming from the pavement, Qi Fei raised his hand and froze the waves in the air.But then, a huge arm shattered the wave, and a huge figure emerged from the center of the wave, appearing in front of everyone.

A huge khaki civet cat monster covered with spell marks appeared in the forest. Its huge size made the surrounding trees look like half chopsticks in front of it, and they flew together like a few small ants.

[Izuku Shouhe, it's a pity that if I don't talk trash, I always feel that something is missing...]

"Finally appeared... the perfect body." Temari looked at the figure of the perfect body Morizuru in surprise and fear.Gaara in the form of Shukaku will destroy everything he sees without hesitation, and no one can stop it.

"Is this the monster in his body..." On the way here, Naruto roughly learned from Qi Fei that Gaara had a similar experience to himself.

The others also looked at this monster that covered the sky with shock and surprise.They no longer know of any way to deal with this monster.

"Death to all of them!" Waving his spiked long tail, Shukaku controlled by Gaara raised his strong arms, ready to sink everyone with a punch.

Everyone looked desperately at the devastating blow that Shuhe was about to drop.

"Damn it!" To deal with such a huge enemy, all Naruto could think of was the psychic technique that the lecherous sage gave him.

So he bit his finger, and when he was about to perform spiritism, he heard Qi Fei say, "Let me do it."

Qi Fei spread out his palm, and countless snow-white frost quickly condensed, and in a blink of an eye, it condensed into a crystal clear javelin exuding cold air.

"Winter's Wrath!" Holding the javelin backwards, Qi Fei raised his hand and shot towards Shouhe.

Phew - faster than Shuhe's fist fell, the javelin directly plunged into Shuhe's chest.

The next moment, Shuhe's fist stopped in the air, and snow-white frost began to appear on its body surface.Like a shattered statue, countless cracks covered its huge body, and its limbs and muscles began to shatter and fall off one by one, falling to the ground and turning into crystal clear gravel.

[The power of Yin is really easy to use...]

This trick is a by-product of Qi Fei's exploration of Susanoo. It pours the concentrated extreme yin power into the frozen javelin, and freezes all the chakras at the moment of piercing and bursting.

After Chakra was frozen, without the maintenance of Chakra, Shukaku's body naturally couldn't bear the gravity and disintegrated on its own.This is the first time he has experimented with "creatures". Before that, he had only experimented with the range of effect on the training ground.

As Shukaku disintegrated, Gaara's battered body also fell, and fell heavily on the frosty ground.

Walking to the side of the unconscious Gaara, when Qi Fei was about to screw him up, he heard Naruto shouting behind him: "Wait!"

Qi Fei turned his head curiously, and found that Naruto was looking at Gaara on the ground with a look of reluctance and said: "For some reason, I can deeply understand his pain of being alone. But I already have a loved one, but He hasn't met the person he loves, the important partner who liberates him from loneliness and recognizes his existence..."

[You have lived a long life, Naruto, you are not trying to escape me, are you? 】

Recalling that Naruto's mouth escaped in the original book, it seems that they have hung up. Qi Fei thanked Bumin, and without waiting for Naruto to continue, he interrupted directly: "I won't kill him, but the damage Shayin caused to Konoha must be Someone bears. I have to bring him back."

"Hmm..." Naruto just nodded silently after hearing it.

"If you want to enlighten him, go to him yourself after he wakes up."

Qi Fei quickly carried Gaara on his shoulders, and everyone took Temari, Kankuro, and Shino on the way back.

　I've been getting more and more depressed lately, so sleepy...
