Chapter 14: A Trip to the Iron Country
Iron Country-
Sakura and his party followed the Cloud Shinobi team here.
A long time ago, the ninjas agreed not to attack the country of Iron, so they avoided several ninja wars.
One of the reasons why the Five Shadows of the Five Great Powers met was chosen in the Iron Country, and the leader of the Iron Country also served as the host of the Five Shadows Talks, one of the reasons was the neutral attitude of the Iron Country and the agreement of the ninjas a long time ago, there were no ninjas in the Iron Country, but a group of battle groups called "samurai" guarded by them. It is a neutral country with an independent culture, independent authority, and independent combat power.
Sakura and her group hid behind a huge rock and watched as the three cloud ninjas and Thunder Shadow converged. Ghost Pill's technique hides everyone, and even the perceptual ninjas around Thunder Shadow don't find out.
"Naruto, the Thunder Shadow has appeared, are you going out?" Sakura confirmed. ”
"Sakura-chan, aren't you going out?" asked Naruto.
"I've been thinking about something since I started. The situation may be a bit serious, so it's better for me to hide it first. Sakura said.
"Did something happen?" Kakashi asked.
"I'll talk about it in more detail later, so let's go see Thunder Shadow first. Ghost Maru, uncover Kakashi-sensei and Naruto. ”
……………………………………………………
In the end, Naruto's heartfelt remarks did not move Thunder Shadow, but instead he was taught a lesson by Thunder Shadow.
Thunder Shadow's theory is undoubtedly the mainstream in the mainstream during the war years, however, Naruto, who grew up in the basic peace years, can't understand why the hatred between people is so high-sounding.
It's not that Naruto is stupid, you know, Naruto, who has learned about the tragedy of Sasuke and Itachi, the tragedy of Payne, and the ambition of inheriting his master and brother, has stood at an angle that surpasses that of Thunder Shadow, who is the shadow of a village. The village should never be a vehicle for hatred.
Naruto's words, which were evaluated by the Thunder Shadow as a child's innocence, were not wrong at all. In any world, the law of the jungle is the survival of the fittest, and there must be an obligation to bear the consequences of doing things. Completely ending the chains of revenge, it's just a wonderful dream.
Seriously, Sakura-chan still agrees with Thunder Shadow's point of view, but Naruto's idea is even more desirable.
Thunderkage and his party left, and Naruto fell to his knees and cried bitterly.
After the Thunder Shadow and his party disappeared and confirmed that they could not be found, Sakura walked out and came to Naruto, who was still lying on the ground, and Kakashi, who was comforting Naruto: "Don't cry, there's still a chance." ”
"What?" Naruto looked up.
"Sakura-chan, do you have any plans for the next step?" Kakashi asked.
"No, it was a temporary feeling of something, Naruto, you enter the immortal mode first. Sakura paused and continued, "Kakashi-sensei, it stands to reason that all the tailed beasts have been captured by Akatsuki except for the Three Tails and the Nine Tails, right?" Sakura confirmed earnestly. ”
"Well, yes, what?"
"The immortal mode not only has a wide range of perception, but also can distinguish different chakras in detail, including the chakras of human pillar power, and they will also have their obvious differences from ordinary people. Now, in addition to the Three-Tails and the Nine-Tails, I also feel the chakra of another human pillar force, which is in the territory of the Iron Country. ”
"This ...... How is that possible?" Kakashi was puzzled.
"I'm puzzled. Sakura said, "Moreover, although I don't know Sasuke's current strength, I still know the strength before he left Orochimaru, does he really have the strength to defeat the tailed beast? How much can he increase in such a short time?"
"Well, I heard that the human pillar power of Yunyin Village can completely control the tailed beast, and its actual combat power is probably higher than the tailed beast itself. Kakashi said.
"By the way, isn't there a ready-made tailed beast here?" Because the three tails of the ghost pill were sealed by Sakura herself, think about it or forget it, so Sakura looked at Naruto, and concentric circles appeared in her eyes.
……………………………………………………????――
Sakura appears in a space that resembles a sewer, with a huge iron gate in front of it and a huge seal on it.
"Is the two-fold fully combined Four Elephant Seal, the Bagua Seal, more advanced than the overlapping Four Elephant Seal I used last time I sealed the Three Tails. Sakura muttered to herself.
"Yo, little girl, can you actually see me in Naruto's body? The Nine-Tails' voice came from the inside of the Iron Gate, "Since I was sealed, you're the second person besides Naruto to see me. ”
"The first one?"
"Half a year ago, the Uchiha clan, the cursed evil clan, I will never forget the cold pupil power and chakra in those eyes. "Your eyes, by contrast, remind me of ...... Six Paths Immortal ............"
"Half a year ago, the only Uchiha who saw Naruto was Sasuke, did you watch it at that time...... But, who is the Six Dao Immortals? Standing up, he is a very powerful guy. Sakura thought, but it was better to ask the question at the moment: "Now, the guy you met half a year ago, do you think he might be able to beat other tailed beasts now?"
"Cut, how is it possible," Nine-Tails said disdainfully, "It's true that his pupil power is good, and he can suppress my strength a little, but at that level, even if he opens the kaleidoscope writing wheel eye, let alone me, even the bull ghost can abuse him." ”
"Who is the cow ghost?"
"Huh, you don't know our names. ”
"Why do I know? Even if my eyes are the same as those of the Six Dao Immortals, I am not a Six Dao Immortals. From the words of the Nine-Tails, Sakura judged that the Nine-Tails and the Six Immortals seemed to have some unusual relationship.
"It's the Eight-Tails, the Eight-Tails. ”
"So, what about you?" Sakura asked again. ”
"Nine Lamas. Hmph, I didn't even tell Naruto my name. ”
"I see. Sakura closed her eyes, she didn't expect the Nine-Tails to answer her question so easily, could it be for the sake of her having the same eyes as the Six Paths Immortals?
……………………………………………………
"The Eight-Tailed Pillar Force may be in the territory of the Iron Country. I just went to see the Nine-Tails inside Naruto's body. Sakura said.
At this time, Naruto's immortal mode was ready: "Really, there really is a human pillar force in the distance, and it is ............" Naruto looked at the ghost pill and Sakura suspiciously.
"You know, don't say it. Sakura said in a bit of a panic. ”
"Alas, the news that everyone else was captured by 'Xiao' is completely accurate. Kakashi covered his head, "So, could it be that Yao deliberately deceived and left a clone to be captured by Sasuke, and then the main body slipped into the Land of Iron?
"Whatever it takes, let's go find him. Naruto said with some eagerness, "If I can find it, I can return Sasuke's innocence." ”
"No, it's not innocent yet, it's true that he joined 'Xiao'. Kakashi said.
"Besides, there's another important situation," Sakura said after a pause, "Sasuke, too, has come to the location of the Five Shadows meeting. Sakura added here. ”
"Why didn't you say it earlier?!" Naruto hadn't noticed just now. Because Sakura and Naruto often intersected in missions even during the Otogakure Village, Naruto was still familiar with Sakura's chakra, but Sasuke was different, and he never saw Sasuke again after the Heaven and Earth Bridge mission. The compound spell mark and the opening of the kaleidoscope chakra eye made Sasuke's chakra change a lot.
"No, it's just that I didn't have time to say it, things have to be done one by one. Sakura explained earnestly. ”
"Ahhhh......h (To be continued)
