CHAPTER 594: CHAPTER 82: WHAT A COINCIDENCE

A strange bird flew over the former site of Konoha, with its center flattened to the ground, forming a giant crater, surrounded by rings of building debris.

Su Xiao overlooked the scene below, and the situation of Konoha at this moment could only be described as tragic.

From the anime, you could never experience such a scene in Konoha now. More than 99% of the ordinary villagers of Konoha perished, almost all the Lower Ninja were wiped out, and the survival rate of the Chunin was less than 50%. This was even with the protection of Tsunade’s summoning beast, the slug.

The death rate of Jonin was not high, only a small portion of them were engulfed by the building debris.

From within the rubble at the edge of Konoha, a white creature emerged from the stones, wrapped around a pink-haired female ninja.

Sakura emerged from the split body of the slug, taking deep breaths.

After a few greedy breaths, Sakura raised her head, the scene before her left her bewildered, of course, seeing the giant crater at the original site of Konoha, Sakura’s eyes widened, her pupils contracted.

Tears ran down her dust-covered cheeks; the home she lived in for over a decade was destroyed.

"What on earth happened here, why are we treated this way, what did we do wrong."

Tears dropped onto Sakura’s hand, a strange bird flew over her head.

Sakura instinctively looked up, she saw a man sitting on the back of that bird, holding a cigarette in his mouth, looking calm.

"Roar!!"

A roar came, and an ugly ’monster’ appeared.

This monster was Naruto, with eight chakra tails swinging behind him, his torso and head transformed, as if possessing lively body tissues, like a flesh-and-blood demon fox.

Naruto was between the Eight-tails and Nine-tails stage, his consciousness was no longer there, those blood-red vertical pupils were full of brutality, that was the gaze of Nine-tails Kurama.

"Just a little bit more, and I’ll be free once the seal is lifted."

The tailed beastified Naruto suddenly spoke; his appearance was no different from that of a demon fox.

Su Xiao, observing from above, saw Naruto in the Eight-tails state. He wasn’t interested in fighting such a monster, it was a suicide mission, plus he sensed that at this moment, it wasn’t Naruto controlling that body, but the Nine-tails.

The berserk Naruto and the soon-to-be unchained Nine-tails were two different concepts. Although the berserk Naruto was immensely powerful, it was brute strength; in battle, he would only charge forward and tear up the enemy.

Nine-tails was different; the tailed beast was an intelligent creature and had lived for so many years, possessing vast battle experience.

Su Xiao did not want to engage Nine-tails, but someone did. Our friend, Heavenly Dao, was rushing at high speed, directly toward Nine-tails.

A true warrior dares to face Nine-tails, but unfortunately, Nine-tails was just too strong.

Seeing Heavenly Dao rushing in, Nine-tails lifted its head, didn’t even make a charge-up move, and its belly started to expand.

That blood-colored mouth opened wide, the tailed beast bomb shot toward Heavenly Dao.

"Shinra Tensei."

Bang.

The tailed beast bomb was deflected, flying off at an angle to the distance.

With a loud boom, the tailed beast bomb exploded in the forest near Konoha, a spherical fire blast rose to the sky, and the ground began to tremble.

"So, this is the power of Nine-tails, nothing much..."

The words of Heavenly Dao were not yet finished when another tailed beast bomb spewed toward him, Shinra Tensei could only be used once every five seconds, and Heavenly Dao couldn’t deflect this bomb.

Boom!

Dirt splattered, and Heavenly Dao was blasted far away, his upper body driven straight into Hokage Rock, right at the nose of Hashirama’s statue.

Heavenly Dao’s legs twitched slightly but stopped moving, looking like it was a signal reception problem.

Although Heavenly Dao was blasted away, the other five Paths of Pain had arrived, surrounding Nine-tails.

Without any words, Pain and Nine-tails clashed into a fierce battle, the explosions incessant, the original site of Konoha was further ravaged.

The strange bird carrying Su Xiao also charged toward the battlefield, the main quest was completed, and he had no need to continue fighting.

Jumping off the back of the strange bird, Heavenly Dao, who had just broken free from Hokage Rock, glanced at Su Xiao, somewhat perplexed.

Su Xiao waved at Heavenly Dao, although a bit far, Heavenly Dao could clearly see Su Xiao’s mouth movements.

’Good luck, goodbye.’

Su Xiao was ready to return to Reincarnation Paradise. Although devouring Nine-tails could exceptionally boost the level of Blue Steel Shadow, one must know oneself well. Su Xiao knew he was not a match for Nine-tails, at least not now.

Though Konoha Village was destroyed, a significant number of Konoha’s Jonin and Anbu survived, and these people wouldn’t sit idly by while Nine-tails was captured, even if they could defeat Nine-tails, they would still face the pursuit of Konoha’s Jonin afterward.

Su Xiao had gained quite a lot in Naruto World, there wasn’t much reason to stay longer.

Sitting amidst the ruins, just as Su Xiao was about to return, a huge stone in the distance was pushed away, a disheveled little girl crawled out from the debris, this little girl had only one arm left.

"Cough cough, what bad luck, that must have been Nagato’s Shinra Tensei just now, why did it need to be right over my head, that’s not very polite."

Gulu patted the dust from her body with her single arm, the arm pierced by rebar, yet she didn’t care.

Gulu’s actions suddenly stopped, she felt someone staring at her, she stiffly turned her head, and upon recognizing the person not far away, her mind spun like a tornado.

"Isn’t that the one from the auction... that what’s-his-name, Darkness? Night? Right, Bai Ye!"

Gulu slapped her leg, raising a small cloud of dust.

"It’s Bai Ye, what a coincidence, hello, hahaha, haha, ha."

Gulu laughed awkwardly, as if a thousand wild donkeys were rushing through her mind, her slender fists clenched, she began to mutter softly.

"He doesn’t know about the Demon Hunting Suit, he definitely doesn’t know, he mustn’t find out, Life Value is down to just 19%, fighting like this is impossible."

Gulu stood in place muttering, not far away, Su Xiao flicked away his cigarette ash.

"I heard you have a nice ring."

Upon hearing this, Gulu’s eyes were wide, looking at Su Xiao with a somewhat broken expression.

"Rumor, absolutely a rumor."

"Is that so, then how did Xiela die?"

Su Xiao smiled broadly, Gulu was in a very sorry state now, obviously having been hunted for a long time, and with old injuries on her, it indicated she was out of healing items.

Gulu sighed, a long dagger appeared in her hand, the blade tapering sharply, with a dark purple glow on its surface.

Seeing Gulu’s dagger, Su Xiao felt an unease, this was a Dark Purple Quality weapon with +10 enhancements or more, and it had a gem inlay.

With Gulu’s strength, it was normal for her to have a weapon of this grade, and this dagger suited her well, she had previously obtained a Light Golden Quality dagger, but after weighing her options, she still chose this one.

This long dagger wasn’t just Dark Purple; the dagger’s hilt was embedded with four Light Golden Gems!

The four Light Golden Gems were: Rapid Nitela (reduce air resistance, increase attack speed by 20%), Sharpness of Calamity (increase weapon attack power by 10%), Bloodthirsty Elf (attack restores 11% of the damage dealt as Life Value), Spirit Break (attack inflicts additional 18 points of True Damage).
