Naruto: The Strongest Sage.

It is not easy to be a perfect Jinchūriki. At least it is impossible to do it in one go. The Nine-Tails has complicated feelings towards Naruto.

Strictly speaking, Naruto himself has never hurt Naruto. But Naruto's father is the culprit who sealed himself.

I should hate the ninjas of Konoha. But in fact, Naruto was treated even worse than me in his early years.

Sometimes the Nine-Tails doesn't know who is the tailed beast between itself and Naruto. It has the same intelligence as humans. But it still can't understand human emotions. For example, why do they think this little guy is themselves and resent him.

Under such complicated thoughts, it is impossible for the Nine-Tails to really cooperate with Naruto. What's more, there is an annoying Uchiha next to him.

Kyuubi's emotions are pure.

Because it was sealed, it hated the Fourth Hokage and Konoha, but in the final analysis, it still hated the Uchiha who controlled it back then.

One is Uchiha Madara, the other is Uchiha Obito, to round it off, it means hatred for Uchiha.

Therefore, although he was sealed in Naruto's body, his hatred for Naruto was not as severe as that for Sasuke beside him.

However, it is absolutely impossible to make it reconcile with Naruto directly. Back then, it was trained as a pet by Uchiha Madara, which made it extremely hostile to cooperating with humans.

"You humans say you are cooperating with me. But in reality, you just want my power. It's easy to want power. Just tear up the spell in front of me and I will give you power, the most powerful power."

Just as the Nine-Tails said this, in the corner of Naruto's spiritual world, a figure involuntarily took a step forward, ready to appear.

However, Naruto's next words directly broke the Nine-Tails' defense.

"If your power is truly the strongest, then why is it sealed?"

"......" The Nine-Tails was speechless. As a tailed beast, it is indeed the strongest. The vast majority of humans are just ants in its eyes.

But there is no way, humans are a very strange race. There will always be some things that cannot be measured by common sense.

In the hands of Uchiha Madara, Senju Hashirama, and the mysterious Uchiha who controlled it later, it had almost no power to fight back.

Of course, although these are all facts, it does not mean that you can mention them in front of the Nine-Tailed Fox casually. Isn't this just poking at its heart?

In a flash, Naruto and Sasuke found themselves back in reality, with Karin and Aoba standing in front of them.

"It's taking longer than I thought. Well, that's it for today's training. I'll give you half an hour to pack your things. We have an urgent mission."

....................

In Sunagakure, Gaara is confronting a group of invading enemies with a serious expression.

As the new generation Kazekage, he naturally knew about the Akatsuki organization. They were a well-known mercenary organization in the Rain Country.

Later, Konoha shared some information, which made him realize that the hidden strength of Akatsuki was unfathomable, and the key was that the other party was still secretly planning some conspiracies.

But Gaara never dreamed that Akatsuki's first target would be Sand Village. No, it's not a target, it's more like some kind of...test.

Because almost all members of Akatsuki were mobilized this time. However, most of the members did not take action. In fact, only one person, Hiruko, took action so far.

With the help of Akatsuki, Hiruko finally completed most of his Kirayame technique.

Now, Hiruko has mastered the skills of Swiftness, Steel, Storm, and Darkness.

Swift Release is fast, Steel Release is defensive, Storm Release is offensive, and Dark Release is for absorbing chakra. It can be said that the current Hiruko has maxed out his attributes on paper.

According to his theory, if he could add a pair of Sharingan, he would be able to achieve the complete version of Kisarazu no Yaiba, thus undergoing a complete transformation.

However, the integration of the first four bloodline limits has already consumed a large amount of Akatsuki's resources.

Traditionally, researchers need to show investors some results in order to attract their continued investment.

This is the purpose of the current Beiliu. The action against Sunagakure is essentially to test the interim results of Beiliu.

The original test site was actually Konoha. And to be honest, if all members of Akatsuki were deployed, even the current Konoha would be in trouble.

However, both Nagato and Konan knew very well that the Akatsuki organization seemed powerful, but in fact, it was full of internal contradictions. Apart from other things, the fact that Shin could use Wood Release was almost a clear sign that he was Kamikawa Aoba's man.

And Uchiha Itachi is not completely trustworthy. The masked man who calls himself Uchiha Madara is obviously a different school from that weird Black Zetsu.

The entire Akatsuki organization is strong on paper, but there are too many internal problems. If they are directly targeted at Konoha, these problems may be detonated instantly, which may cause the Akatsuki organization to collapse directly.

Nagato doesn't care about the little tricks of the Akatsuki organization. But his body is not good enough. He still needs more combat power to help him capture the tailed beast. Before achieving this goal, the Akatsuki organization cannot collapse.

This is also the reason why he supports Hiruko. He needs to train some trustworthy and powerful helpers. If Hiruko's Kiragaya no Jutsu can really succeed, it will be a great supplement to the Akatsuki organization.

Bei Liuhu was not in full condition at this time. In the previous battle, he was actually seriously injured.

However, his expression became more and more relaxed, because with the high-intensity battles, he had become more and more adapted to the four new bloodline limits in his body.

With the help of the Dark Release, Hiruko, whose chakra was almost unlimited, was already an unstoppable existence among regular ninjas.

Even though Gaara and Shukaku have reached a certain degree of reconciliation, they still can't get rid of Beiruhu for a while.

The most important thing is the group of Akatsuki members standing behind Hiruko who did not take action. If that group of people had the fighting power of Hiruko, Gaara felt that the entire Sand Village would not be able to withstand the opponent's attack.

This is why he sent a distress signal to Konoha as soon as possible. The moment he saw the enemy, he knew that Sand Village could not stop them.

At this time, Gaara had already ordered all the Chunin and Genin to retreat. In a battle of this level, they would simply be sent packing.

The correct tactic is to stand at a distance and cast a ninjutsu to support, or to send a puppet to attack. Unfortunately, facing the enemy's steel escape, most ninjas' attacks can't break through the defense.

Puppetry has a huge advantage in the battles between middle and lower-level ninjas, but when it comes to the battles between top-level ninjas, it is not enough.

Unless one can create a human puppet like Scorpion, and can manipulate hundreds of them at a time, otherwise, a Kage-level battle cannot even enter the door.
