Naruto: Who made him a ninja?

They had been waiting for news, but unfortunately, several days passed without any good information, which made it unbearable for them.

Now that they had finally seen the signal flare, how could they possibly miss it?

However, as they continued to rush forward, they suddenly realized that the situation seemed to be beyond their imagination.

Along the way, these Sand Ninja discovered that the closer they got to the location where the signal flare was launched, the more abnormal the entire desert seemed.

The piercing roars, the eerie howls, and the constantly trembling sand dunes on the ground all seemed to be telling them that a great battle was erupting ahead.

"What exactly is going on here?"

With apprehensive hearts, they continued forward, and when they finally arrived at a closer position, they were completely dumbfounded!

"What... what is that?"

They saw countless black figures moving rapidly in the sky, and it was clear that they were all puppets!

The dense puppets seemed to cover the entire sky, and among these flying puppets, there was a unique puppet surrounded by black iron sand.

This iron sand continuously pierced the ground from the air, forming giant, barrier-like structures, and the high-density iron sand transformed into iron thorns that constantly attacked.

Below, a faint green giant figure seemed to be hidden among the puppets and sandstorms, and there were countless broken puppets on the ground.

In addition, what made their hair stand on end was that there was also a roaring stone dragon, seemingly over fifty meters long, constantly launching attacks not far away.

The sand was trembling, the earth was roaring, and all of this stunned the Sand Ninja who had come to reinforce!

"Quickly send a distress signal!"

Finally, one of the Sand Ninja reacted, and he roared at his teammates beside him.

"Send it immediately, and be sure to report it to the village. We suspect that we have discovered the traces of the Third Kazekage. Report it immediately!"

"Yes!"

Although they were yelled at, these Sand Ninja quickly reacted.

Leaving aside what the puppets all over the sky meant, and without discussing what kind of destructive power the stone dragon, with its beast-like body, possessed.

The black iron sand that was constantly launching attacks was enough to make them understand the severity of the matter!

The Third Kazekage, the missing Kazekage, the so-called strongest Kazekage, actually appeared here?

In any case, this information must be transmitted back to the village, and it must be fast!

Not only them, but other Sand Hidden squads also reacted instantly.

At this moment, countless signal flares, and even swift falcons specially used to transmit signals, were constantly rising into the air.

The scorching sky instantly became even more dazzling.

Chapter 23: Lord Scorpion, Lord Danzo sends his regards.

"Is there any news yet?"

"I'm sorry, Lord Kazekage, not yet."

Inside the Kazekage's office in the Sand Hidden Village.

Rasa looked at the ninja in front of him with a gloomy face. He was in a particularly bad mood right now.

Several days had quietly passed, but Yekura was still nowhere to be found, and the Mist Hidden Village was still stubborn, seemingly determined to have this woman.

Moreover, the Rock Hidden Village's actions were getting bigger and bigger, and if this continued, the situation would only get worse!

"Really..."

Rasa was also exhausted, and he almost blurted out the word 'waste'.

Fortunately, he managed to control his emotions and then said helplessly.

"Continue to search with great effort, but we also need to shrink some of our forces and move north. We can't invest so much manpower anymore."

"We understand."

When these Sand Ninja heard Rasa's words, their faces were filled with helplessness and unwillingness.

Unfortunately, they had no way to do anything about it. The game between ninja villages was so cruel, and every bit of profit had to be carefully calculated.

"Lord Kazekage!"

However, at this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the office door, followed by urgent knocking.

"Come in."

Rasa frowned. He felt that the person was being rude, but now was not the time to consider these things.

Soon, the door was opened, and a ninja ran in panting. He respectfully bowed and then quickly said.

"Lord Kazekage, there's an urgent report!"

"Is there news about Yekura?"

"Not only that, but this matter may be even more terrible and even more important."

Rasa was a little disappointed. The most important thing for him now was Yekura's whereabouts, but he still patiently asked.

"Tell me about it."

"According to the report, there is a large-scale battle in the central desert area, and one of them..."

The ninja couldn't help but pause here, and then tremblingly said.

"Seems to have puppet techniques no weaker than Elder Chiyo, and everyone has noticed the Third Kazekage's black iron sand!"

As soon as the words fell, the faces of everyone in the entire office changed, and the next moment, they all rushed out...

"Damn it..."

Scorpion glanced at the Sand Ninja who were constantly approaching not far away, and looked at the two guys in front of him. His face was getting more and more ugly.

The difficulty of these two brats was somewhat beyond his imagination.

In fact, he wanted to leave when he saw the first signal flare rising, but these two guys stopped him!

Especially that little brat he really wanted to tear apart, the one who launched the first signal flare and was now standing on a giant rock head, enraged him even more.

It was him who turned the situation into this, and it was him who, in cooperation with another little brat, made it difficult for him to leave.

If he didn't attack and suppress them, he would be helpless against the various chaotic Fire Release and Earth Release harassments.

Once he attacked, he couldn't leave, and those Sand Ninja were getting closer and closer, which meant...

"You die for me!"

The more he thought about it, the angrier Scorpion became, and he quickly manipulated a large number of puppets to rush towards Shūzawa!

Crack, crack...

The floating puppets trembled for a moment, and in the next instant, a large number of puppets rushed towards Shūzawa.

Some of them were holding blades, and some were throwing ninja tools from a distance, it was a complete saturation attack!

"I knew I should have learned some Fire Release..."

The dense mass of shadows made Shūzawa's scalp tingle, and he couldn't help but curse inwardly.

Although Fire Release was difficult to kill people with, its effects on sabotage and support were still very good.

It's just that he didn't have many free points to begin with, and most of them were used to improve his overall physical fitness.

Although Shūzawa really wanted to add all the points to his physical fitness, he knew that ninja battles couldn't be like samurai battles, relying solely on the body, even Might Guy had strong chakra.

Moreover, without improving those ninjutsu and the amount of chakra linked to physical fitness, his current combat strength would not be what it is now.

"But relatively speaking, I'm not afraid of close combat!"

He quickly controlled the giant stone dragon to turn its body, wrapping himself inside, and the next moment, 'ding ding dang dang' sounds appeared on the surface of the stone dragon.

And when everything was over, Shūzawa quickly rushed out of the stone dragon's body, and casually picked up a ninja sword.

"Konoha-ryū · Hazy Moon!"

The ninja sword even created an illusion, and in an instant, several puppets were directly shattered by him, and the other puppets landed in an instant, Shūzawa suddenly stood with one hand upright.

Rumble——

Countless sharp earth spikes suddenly emerged from the stone dragon's body, and in the blink of an eye, I don't know how many puppets were directly destroyed!

And Shūzawa's movements didn't stop at all, he used his sensory ability to observe Scorpion's movements, not letting him find a gap to run away, and he also paid attention to the situation on the Sand Ninja side.

At the same time, the ninja sword in his hand danced rapidly, and those puppets couldn't withstand his attacks at all.

For a time, I don't know how many damaged puppets were left on the stone dragon's body.

"But this can't go on..."

After shattering another puppet with a single slash, Shūzawa silently sensed his own condition, and he couldn't help but shake his head.

LV3's Cursed Seal and Yin Release meant that he couldn't fight for a long time, he was fine, but those chakra were about to run out.

Even though he had been using it very sparingly, it still couldn't keep up in the end.

"Since that's the case..."

Shūzawa silently turned his head to look at the large group of Sand Ninja who were constantly approaching, they were only a hundred meters away from the center of the battle.

Moreover, they were spreading out, seemingly intending to surround Shūzawa and the others, which gave Shūzawa a chance!

"After watching the show for so long, it wouldn't be good not to contribute, right?"

With another slash, Shūzawa once again split a puppet in half, and then he unhesitatingly controlled the stone dragon.

"Roar!"

The huge stone dragon let out a earth-shattering roar, and in the midst of the roar, it slammed fiercely towards the Sand Ninja troops!

"Hmm?"

The Sand Ninjas obviously didn't react, and by the time they realized the danger, the stone dragon had already rushed in front of them.

"Quick, get out of the way!"

Terrified shouts rose and fell, but it was of no avail, the fierce stone dragon still slammed down fiercely!

Boom——

The harsh roar resounded through the sky, and the huge smoke and dust, accompanied by the violent impact, spread everywhere.

The entire sky was gray at this time, sand and gravel were swirling everywhere, and countless sharp stones that shattered from the stone dragon's body splashed and flew away.

I don't know how many were paralyzed on the ground due to the shock wave, and those lucky ones who were not injured by the impact instantly became unlucky ones!

Screams and roars were endless at this moment.

"Hmm?"

Shūzawa was sensing the situation on the Sand Ninja side when suddenly his brow raised, he sensed several powerful chakra were rapidly approaching.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and he quickly looked towards the distance, and in an instant, a hint of surprise appeared on his face!

"Die!"

Also at this time, Scorpion suddenly controlled the Third Kazekage and countless puppets to rush over.

That extreme sense of oppression was chilling!

But this time, Shūzawa didn't dodge, but quickly formed hand seals.

"Sage Art · Yin Release · Earth Thrust Spears!"

In an instant, countless sharp earth thorns burst out of the ground.

The coverage of these earth thorns was extremely large, and almost in the blink of an eye, the entire sand dune had become a sharp stone forest!

I don't know how many puppets were almost destroyed in an instant, even Scorpion's face changed slightly at this time, and he immediately controlled the Third Kazekage to defend.

But at this moment, Shūzawa suddenly rushed to his side, and looking at Scorpion who was already protected by iron sand, he didn't care, but smiled slightly.

"Scorpion, next, I'll leave it to you, your grandfather, Ebizō, is here."

"..."

Scorpion's eyes were full of gloom, and he said in a low voice.
