Restarting Life: Call Me the Leader of Konoha

In the huge pit, the fireworks and the spreading lightning snakes dissipated, and finally only a scorched earth with black smoke was revealed.

"How did you come......"

Scorpion looked coldly at the man who appeared in front of him, a man with a slightly bloated figure.

This is one of that guy's 'corpses'!

Can actually...

Absorbing chakra from ninjutsu?

What a terrifying ability.

"'Akatsuki' will not abandon any of its companions easily. We still need your strength, Scorpion."

The yellow-haired man in a red cloud and black robe turned around and said.

'companion'?

A sneer appeared on Scorpion's lips.

Ah!

In the final analysis, it's just taking advantage of myself.

"Capturing the tailed beast is no easy task."

"The timing is not yet ripe. The One-Tail, Seven-Tail, and Nine-Tail Jinchūriki are still young and not yet able to extract the chakra of the tailed beasts. There is no rush to capture the tailed beasts...

"But it just so happens that I also have a task for you this time."

Hearing this, Scorpion frowned slightly.

I still need time to repair my body and Fei Liu Hu, otherwise my combat power will be limited in a short period of time...

"What mission?"

"I need you to assist Konan. Just wait until she comes to you."

Xiaonan?

That woman...

Scorpion frowned.

You can't ask me to help her make 600 billion detonating talismans, right?

"Also, you need to keep the Jade Maiden Ring safe."

The yellow-haired man said this for the last time, and then jumped away.

Only a figure was left on the ruins, standing there for a long time.

Jade Maiden Ring......

Scorpion raised his hand, looked at the empty limbs and bones, then glanced at the ruins around him, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes.

"Sister Yecang, your injury..."

When the other party carried him on his back earlier, Kakashi noticed a long and narrow bloodstain on his shoulder.

Obviously.

It was left behind when he rescued himself from the puppet's knife!

"It's just a minor injury."

Ye Cang glanced at the wound and said softly.

As a ninja, you should have gotten used to similar injuries.

"But his knife is poisoned..."

Ye Cang may not understand, but Kakashi himself knows it clearly.

With the scorpion's style, there is almost no part that is not soaked in poison!

I have even experienced this more than once...

Ye Cang turned around and gave him a strange look: "I'm really fine.

"How do you feel?"

"It's just that I can't use my strength. It shouldn't be a big deal."

Seeing her nonchalant expression, Kakashi frowned and replied in a deep voice.

The poison this time is obviously not the same as the one that the shadow clone was poisoned by last time.

The purpose of using a knife is to kill the enemy, and the poison on the knife is naturally meant to take people's lives.

But poison barriers are different.

If someone really wanted to kill me at that time, he would have just killed me with a knife. Using poison mist would have seemed unnecessary.

The only possibility is that the other party feels that he has a sure win, and the purpose of the poison barrier is just to control himself so as to facilitate the subsequent production of him into a 'human puppet'.

When he realized that he still had a chance to escape, he manipulated the human puppet to come forward with a knife...

Of course this is just speculation.

But Kakashi thought that it was probably correct.

"Are you really alright?"

Ye Cang asked with a little hesitation, but seeing Kakashi's happy expression, he no longer doubted it.

"But the wound on your hand is not light, and you are bleeding a lot."

The wound on my hand...

That's when Raikiri stabbed Sandite.

It would be better if I didn't mention it, but when Kakashi thought about it, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart!

Pain is inevitable.

Even though it was the first time it was used, at least Kakashi understood something.

This trick still needs to be used with caution!

The enhanced Raikiri is more than one level more lethal, and the fact that it can penetrate the defense of sand iron is enough to prove this.

But the damage to oneself is also significant...

If this technique is not used properly, the caster may even suffer a more miserable end!

At present, the enhanced Raikiri can only be said to be an incomplete jutsu.

Or......

It can be called a forbidden technique that is powerful but comes with uncontrollable side effects!

"There is a village ahead. We will be there soon. Just bear with it for a while and we will deal with it for you right away." Ye Cang said calmly.

"it is good......"

Kakashi raised his head and leaned against his shoulder, following his gaze to the front.

At the end of the winding road is an ordinary village.

Finally, I can breathe a sigh of relief...

It is indeed difficult to deal with sudden changes when you are alone on the road. It will obviously be much easier if there is one more person to take care of each other.

If it weren't for Ye Cang, it would be hard to say what would happen at this moment...

Maybe he has already become a human puppet!

Did Minato-sensei have considered this at the time?

"By the way, Sister Ye Cang, why are you here?"

Just as he was thinking, Kakashi suddenly asked.

The other party's appearance here was truly unexpected!

Before leaving Sand Village, it was Senior Chiyo who noticed the change in the poison in Ye Cang's body, so he persuaded him to stay in Sand Village...

Logically speaking, Ye Cang should be under the "observation" of Senior Chiyo.

Looks like everything is alright?

Kakashi finally realized that the man was still wearing a high-collared long cape, just like the attire to keep out the wind and dust in the desert of the Kingdom of Wind...

"It's a long story, Kakashi.

"There is indeed something wrong with the poison in my body."

Ye Cang paused, and a look of consideration flashed across his eyes.

"Even Grandma Chiyo was busy and overwhelmed because she couldn't figure out the reason.

"But it didn't take long for me to recover naturally."

"Naturally?"

Kakashi noticed the other's choice of words.

'Recovering' has nothing to do with Chiyo-senpai?

"Is it really okay?"

Ye Cang nodded slightly.

"Not only was he unscathed, he was even..."

As he was speaking, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

The person who came was blocking the middle of the road, and the meaning of this action was self-evident.

"Long time no see, you two?"

Orochimaru.

Why is he here!

and......

Seeing the red cloud and black robe on the other person, Kakashi couldn't help but be stunned.

Orochimaru, as a traitor to Konoha, joined Akatsuki?

In this way, the other party's intentions become very clear!

To help Scorpio stop himself?

"Sister Ye Cang..."

Just as he was about to say something, several fireworks were already floating beside him.

"Kakashi, you better hold on tight."

Ye Cang looked solemnly at the figure that appeared in front of him.

At this time, facing an opponent of the level of the "Three Ninjas"...

"Do not be nervous.

"I'm not here to fight with you two." Orochimaru said with a sneer, while looking at the two men's cold faces.

Is Kakashi unable to fight anymore?

It seems that he was poisoned by the scorpion...

What a pity!

A gleam of brilliance flashed in a pair of brown and yellow vertical pupils.

"Then please get out of the way." Ye Cang shouted coldly.

If the other party intends to stop you, you will definitely not be able to get rid of him at that moment.

In that case, we can only fight head-on...

But no matter what, now is definitely not the time to fight!

“I will stop you here, but it’s for your own good.

"However, if you insist on moving forward..."

Orochimaru hooked his finger, drawing a trail of blood, and formed a seal with his hand.

As the earth trembled, three gates of hell with huge mouths opened suddenly rose up!

"If you can break through these three doors, I will let the two of you leave!"
