Restarting Life: Call Me the Leader of Konoha

Puppets can fight against humans, but facing terrifying creatures like the tailed beasts, it is still a bit too much of a stretch.

Even though he possessed the sealing technique and posed a certain threat, he seriously lacked the means to restrain the latter.

It is absolutely impossible to complete the seal by yourself!

If you want to control Shukaku, that kid's gold dust is essential...

Chiyo's heart moved.

After explaining the village's response, he quickly rushed out with two scrolls in his hands.

"Granny Chiyo!——"

Chiyo turned around in shock, looking at the petite figure running towards her, frowned and shouted:

"Xiao Juan, didn't I already give the order? Just go back and sleep peacefully!"

"Granny Chiyo, I also know how to seal, maybe I can help you then..."

The girl said through gritted teeth, holding a long roll of cloth in her arms, which looked larger than her head.

"Nonsense! You kids are not allowed to participate in a battle with the tailed beasts! Go back!"

"Granny Chiyo, but I...

"I saw Kakashi-senpai and that sister went out too!"

......

-----------------

'roar!--'

Between the low houses made of sand and soil, there is a giant beast with black stripes all over its body.

Like the Nine-Tailed Fox, it is filled with a malicious and cold aura.

This is...

One-tailed Shukaku!

Kakashi's eyes were slightly different.

The buildings in Sunagakure are very different from those in Konoha. They all have curved outlines and are almost airtight.

This was obviously designed to resist wind and sand, and it just happened to work at this moment. It can also be seen that the stability of the building is far stronger than that of Konoha.

Despite the chaos caused by Yiwei, there was not even the slightest sign of collapse.

"Sister Ye Cang, we..."

"This is our Sunagakure business, Kakashi."

Ye Cang stared into the distance, his tone wasn't cold, but it was so calm that not a trace of emotion could be heard.

Behind the half mask, there was a gleam of bright light.

The tight black outfit makes the originally lively and beautiful girl look murderous.

In the distance were ninjas fighting with Shukaku, and among them, there were some familiar figures to her!

The scene was undoubtedly one-sided...

It is obvious that ordinary ninjas are simply unable to compete with the tailed beasts.

Besides, Ye Cang knows exactly how powerful the Sand Village ninjas are!

Facing Shukaku, there are only a handful of people who are truly capable of resisting head-on.

The yellow sand on the ground gradually turned blood red...

"Just take care of yourself, Kakashi. You don't need to interfere in Sunagakure's affairs."

After solemnly explaining this, Ye Cang suddenly pursed his lips and laughed.

It seemed that the last time he said something similar was to himself.

Unexpectedly, in less than a year, the two of them had already witnessed the Tailed Beasts' rebellion twice...

This is a novel experience!

"No, Sister Ye Cang, you are the same."

Kakashi shook his head helplessly.

"Don't forget, you are no longer the Sunagakure, 'sister'..."

You are also an 'outsider'!

Ye Cang was about to move forward when he suddenly stopped, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Of course, I don’t call her “sister” just to sound nice.

What she was referring to was her current identity as 'Hatake Karin'!

Kakashi could understand the meaning of the other person's words and raised his hand to rest on the slender shoulder.

He could understand Ye Cang's feelings. When the village was in crisis, he would always think about whether he could do something.

After all, that’s what I thought at that time.

But the situation is different this time.

At this time, both of them are "outsiders" to the Sand Village!

If you rashly join the battlefield as an outsider.

This would instead disrupt Sunagakure's deployment to defend against Shukaku.

No one would trust an outsider for no reason, especially at a life-and-death moment like this.

More people will secretly become wary in their hearts, which is particularly disadvantageous.

This kind of suspicion, distrust and distrust is the most fatal in mutual cooperation!

Just like the Uchiha clan who were not allowed to participate in the fight against the Nine-Tails...

Once Ye Cang joins in, the team that is trying to resist Sand Village will only create rifts between each other, fall into stagnation, and be unable to play the role they should have.

That just makes it worse!

Unless a decisive effect can be achieved, rash participation in the war will only bring negative consequences.

Obviously, Ye Cang is not yet able to reach that level of strength...

"But, Kakashi..."

Ye Cang gritted his teeth slightly.

Sunagakure needs her!

Even the effect of Scorch Release is minimal in front of Shukaku.

But in comparison, it will be even more difficult for others right now!

Moreover, she had to watch her village suffer, and her former companions fight bloody battles, but she remained indifferent...

unacceptable!

"Kakashi, I..."

Ye Cang turned his head and was about to say something else.

His eyes suddenly focused, passing the figure in front of him and circling into the distance.

In the dust over there, two figures, one old and one young, were rapidly approaching the battlefield.

roll?

How could she...

......

"Juan! Follow me and don't run around, understand!"

Glancing quickly behind her, Chiyo frowned and said, slowing down her pace slightly.

This stubborn girl!

If the situation wasn't urgent and there wasn't time to argue with her, I would never let her come with me no matter what I said.

But the other party followed behind him shamelessly, and it seemed that no one could stop him...

"Don't worry, Granny Chiyo, I understand."

Holding a long roll of cloth in his arms, Juan responded happily.

The current situation was not optimistic, and she was aware of this. If possible, she would try her best to avoid causing trouble for the other party.

Although following Grandma Chiyo out was already being willful on my own.

but......

As he walked, his pair of small eyes looked around.

at last.

Not long after, Juan's eyes lit up, and he saw two figures in the yellow sand...

over there!

......

Keeping an eye on the situation on the field, Chiyo felt heavier in her heart the more she watched.

Although Sand Village has had many experiences fighting Shukaku, in reality, that was always the result of someone taking the lead to contain and attract firepower...

But this time, that person was not there!

The battle was as brutal as you can imagine!

Only by deeply understanding the terror of the tailed beasts can one understand his strength to some extent...

The sandstorm in our face was even stronger.

Streams of sand and dust in the air gathered into streams, whistling continuously.

Chiyo's face darkened, and she suddenly raised her hand facing the quicksand coming towards her.

Under the long sleeves, there was a puppet wrist with a knob controlled by a mechanism!

This is her most proud defense...

"Mechanical shield seal!——"

A light blue barrier unfolded in front of him, blocking out all the flying sand.

Chiyo didn't dare to be negligent at all.

These quicksands in the air have quite high lethality!

Ordinary ninjas can't withstand such an attack!

But the current distance is obviously not enough for me.

It is impossible to control the puppets to pose a threat to Shukaku and relieve the pressure on the front line at this distance.

What's more, it is imaginable how difficult it is to control the puppet in the strong sand and dust.

And the most important sealing technique requires an even closer distance!

I can continue to get closer, but...

Chiyo glanced back subconsciously.

"roll!"

However, there was no figure behind him.

The girl had long since left the area where he could protect her...

In the wind and sand, I could only see a figure quite far away from me, moving swiftly and running to the other side!

soy Mujer!

Chiyo couldn't help but curse in her heart.

Following the direction, I naturally saw Kakashi and Ye Cang in the distance.

If it were before, Chiyo would be happy to let this girl go there.

As long as they are not stupid, they should just stay in a safe place and take care of the girl. She doesn't need to worry about anything at all.

But now there were streams of quicksand in the air, forcing her to take a defensive stance.

This girl actually dared to rush out so brazenly!

Juan held the long cloth in his arms with one hand, listened to the shouts behind him, and waved to the back.

The quicksand in the air is still crisscrossing.

Although this was not anticipated.

However, with her nimble hands, it was easy for her to move away when the quicksand came.

"Granny Chiyo, I'm fine! I..."

As soon as she finished speaking, facing a stream of quicksand coming from the air, the girl leaped up and cleared her body, barely avoiding the attack.

The next moment, I saw the quicksand in the air falling straight to the ground...

The voice of Juan stopped suddenly.

Then there was a sudden pain in the ankle!

"roll!"

Just before he fell, two voices rang out from different directions...

He shook his head slightly, straightened up, looked up at the masked figure flying towards him, and couldn't help but pursed his lips.

......

Kakashi sighed.

really......

I can tell.

The 'hero' that the girl mentioned seems to have really returned...

"Wait! Sister Ye...Sister Hua Ling, be careful!"

There was a scream coming from the front, and the ninjas who were fighting with Shukaku were suddenly blown away by the raging sand!

Suddenly, a roll of sand and gravel rose from the ground, sweeping over like a wave, with a growing momentum...

Roaring and sweeping towards the village.

The first to be hit were the figures in front!

"Mechanical shield seal!——"

Chiyo half-knelt on the ground, setting up a barrier to resist the sand waves in front of her.

But his eyes were looking worriedly to the other side, at the other two people who were also attacked by Sha Tao.

The sand waves rolled and surged, and the streets were suddenly flooded with a layer of roaring waves...

Juan's face suddenly turned pale.

Lying on the ground, unable to move freely, the oncoming sand waves seemed so huge and majestic.

It seemed to be able to devour her completely!

And that was exactly what happened the next moment.

The roaring sand instantly flooded in front of us!

At the critical moment, a hand hooked his arm and pulled him up.

"Are you okay?"

My body suddenly crashed into a soft embrace, and a faint voice came to my ears.

It sounds nice...but a little unnaturally low and hoarse.

Familiar yet strange.

"I do not......"

Her vision flashed, and she saw the other person holding her and walking through the quicksand. Juan quickly reached out and hooked his neck.

Seeing that the two were safe and sound, Kakashi breathed a sigh of relief.

thrilling!

If it had been a step later, not only the girl, but also Ye Cang would have been buried in the sand.

"I finally got you, kid..."

Hearing that voice again, Kakashi turned around sharply.

Shukaku, who had blasted away a group of Sand Ninjas in the distance, was now slowly approaching him!

"You smell like that guy...

"Let me see what's going on!"

Shukaku raised his hands and clenched them.

The yellow sand on the ground suddenly rose into the air, condensing into a claw covered with spots in the air...

"Kakashi!"

Ye Cang felt something and looked back.

But he saw a huge hand made of quicksand, which also condensed in front of him out of thin air!

As soon as he paused, quicksand instantly wrapped around his legs.

"Hehehe...

"I just noticed that there seems to be that shadow in your head as well."

A voice sounded from the bottom of my heart.

Ye Cang was stunned.

Shukaku!

His legs were quickly entangled by the quicksand above his knees. After struggling in vain, Ye Cang made a quick decision and put the girl in his arms behind him...

You can only accept it!

Looking at the huge claws reaching out from the air, Ye Cang looked serious.

This giant claw made of quicksand contains extremely rich chakra...

However, among the wind escape, fire escape, or burning escape that he had learned, there was no means of defense at all!

In this case, the only move that can be resisted is his strongest attack method...

Ye Cang no longer hesitated. He clasped his right hand over his left wrist, curled up his five fingers, and faced the huge claws attacking him with his palm.

A brilliant red lotus quietly blooms before my eyes...

Burning Escape——Red Lotus!

No matter how much you want to hide your identity, how can you hold back when facing such a life threat?

If you can't save your life, everything else is in vain!

"Oh? It's a terrifyingly high temperature, comparable to Sun's chakra!"

The giant hand that kept reaching out from the sky slowed down a little, and streams of sand and gravel fell down.

Under the terrifying high temperature, the giant hand in the air showed signs of disintegration!

Even though he saw that this move was effective and received praise from the tailed beast, Ye Cang still did not dare to relax in the slightest.

Just when she was about to concentrate all her energy and put all her chakra into it, a trace of paleness flashed across the girl's clean and flawless face!

From the beginning to the end, while dodging the quicksand and activating the red lotus in his hand, he was always able to divide his mind and pay attention to the other side.

It was not difficult for her to distract herself and pay attention to what was happening around her.

Especially when fighting with others, you can often use this to judge the situation and better seize the initiative.

At this moment, the giant hand formed by sand waves in the distance has already covered the silver-haired boy inch by inch, completely covering him in its palm!

There is no one in that desert!

“Kakashi!——”
