"… …"
Hearing Naruto's words, Kakashi rolled his eyes again.
What do you mean he and Kaede might not be able to deal with him? If Kaede can't deal with him, then I'm afraid no one in the Shinobi world can!
Kakashi looked at Naruto and asked, "What level of ninja are you?"
"Ah … Well …"
Naruto's expression immediately froze and said, "Well, how do I say this … There was an accident in the Chunin Exam and it was interrupted, after that something happened, I have been practicing …"
Kakashi looked at Naruto with dead fish-like eyes and said, "So you are actually a Genin now?"
"Cough!"
Naruto scratched his head awkwardly, then thought of something and said, "That doesn't mean anything! I am very strong, even a Jonin is not my opponent! In short, listen to me from now on, Kaede you go and protect Sara, Kakashi-sensei you come with me to find Hyakubi. "
"… …"
Kakashi was silent for a while.
Then he turned to look at Kaede and said, "Big Brother, what should we do next?"
He has decided to ignore Naruto.
Kaede also ignored Naruto and said, "As long as we find Hyakubi and kill him, it will be fine. Sara, you should know where Hyakubi is, right? Oh, by the way, he is now called An Lushan. "
Kaede said and turned to look at Sara.
Sara was confused by the conversation between Kakashi and Naruto, but when she heard Kaede's question, she suddenly reacted. Her expression tightened, and she said, "An Lushan? No, An Lushan can't be a ninja Hyakubi, please don't say such things again! "
Kakashi glanced at Sara and said, "That's only what you think."
Sara argued, "An Lushan is an outstanding minister who came to this country six years ago. Now, he has inherited Mother's will and is working hard to develop this country. Compared to him, the two of you who suddenly appeared are more suspicious!"
As she spoke, she looked at Kaede, and when her eyes met Kaede's, she couldn't help but avoid his gaze and said in a weak tone, "That's right, even if you saved me, you can't casually slander Minister An Lushan!"
Kaede looked at Sara and didn't say anything.
In the silence.
He took two steps forward and stood in front of Sarah. He put his hand on her shoulder and said softly, "Don't deceive yourself anymore … With your intelligence, can't you detect any suspicious signs after so many years?"
"…"
Sara's lips tightened.
Kaede's words almost instantly shattered her previous rebuttal. After her mother's death, there were indeed all kinds of suspicious points, including her mother's death itself. However, because the only person she could rely on after her mother's death was An Lushan, she had always been resisting herself from thinking in that direction.
Kaede looked at Sara and let go of her. He walked to the side of the platform and pointed at the puppets who were cheering and singing praises for the Queen. He said, "Do you want to see what those people who have been singing praises for you look like?"
"Hm?"
Sara looked at Kaede with a hint of doubt.
Kaede took two steps back, then his figure flickered and appeared next to her. He led her down from the tower and directly landed among the puppets that she believed to be her 'people'.
Kakashi's eyes were constantly observing Sara. Seeing this, he couldn't help but mutter.
"This Queen …"
"What's wrong?"
Naruto asked curiously.
Kakashi glanced at Naruto and said, "Can't you tell? Don't tell me you've never been in love before. "
Ka!!
It was as if he heard an arrow piercing through his heart.
Naruto's entire body fell into a state of petrification. He felt as if he had received a critical blow and was about to shatter into countless pieces.
Kakashi ignored Naruto and also jumped down from the tower.
Below.
Sara was startled to be suddenly brought down from the tower by Kaede. She reflexively hugged Kaede and only hurriedly let go after they landed. Just as she was about to say 'there's nothing going on between us,' she suddenly fell into a state of astonishment.
She noticed that the 'people' who were waving all kinds of things, chanting her name, and singing her praises were all puppets!
"How could this be …"
Sara's face revealed a trace of astonishment.
She pushed away a few puppets in disbelief, only to discover that they were all puppets as well. Not a single one of them was a living person.
"See?"
Kaede looked towards Sara and said, "According to my investigation, Hyakuga changed his name to An Lushan, and after your mother died, he used the power of the Dragon Vein to create all sorts of puppets and weapons. He also used all your people as laborers and forced them to work."
"Such a thing … how could this be …"
Sara's eyes trembled, and she couldn't help but take two steps back.
Almost at this moment, the humanoid puppets in the vicinity suddenly froze.
Immediately afterwards, several of the puppets shattered into pieces and merged together to form a larger puppet. This puppet wielded a gigantic scythe and viciously slashed towards Sara.
* Whoosh!! *
Kaede's expression remained calm as he took a step forward. Interweaving lightning appeared in his left hand, and he casually swept it towards the scythe. The scythe and the puppet behind it instantly shattered into countless pieces.
"Did you see it clearly this time?"
Kaede asked as he looked at Sara, who had dodged to the side.
Sara bit her lip. Although she still found it hard to believe, she had no choice but to believe the truth before her eyes. Indecision, helplessness, and other emotions instantly welled up in her heart.
Right at this moment, Kaede gently placed a hand on her shoulder and said, "Tell me where the source of the Dragon Vein's power is, and I'll help you."
Sara's body trembled as she raised her head to look at Kaede. The trembling in her eyes gradually calmed down, and a glimmer of light reappeared in them.
"… Okay!"
Sara took a deep breath and steeled her resolve. She tossed away her Empress' headscarf, ripped off her jacket, and tore off her long skirt. She clenched her fists and said, "I'll take you there!"
Kakashi stood not far away and sighed, "Sure enough, there's another woman who has thoughts about Big Brother, and this time it's a Empress … How troublesome."
Just as Kakashi sighed.
Ka! Ka!
Suddenly, a series of cracking sounds came from the ground, followed by a large number of puppets rushing out of the ground.
Kakashi's expression changed slightly, and he immediately took a few steps back.
When he looked over, he saw An Lushan, who was dressed like a minister, stepping on a puppet behind the puppets. He walked out from the ground and said, "The ninjas of Konoha are really persistent … But my plan has succeeded. I've obtained the power of the Dragon Vein. You can't stop me anymore, hahahahaha!!"
Feng sighed and said, "People like you usually don't survive more than two episodes."
An Lushan raised his brows, he didn't understand what Feng was talking about, and was about to make a move, he saw Sara suddenly step forward and angrily said, "An Lushan! Stop! What are you going to do? "
Seeing this.
An Lushan sneered evilly and said, "I thank you for your help before, but now you're useless, go die with your mother!"
This sentence caused Sara's heart to tremble violently. She had always suspected her mother's death, and An Lushan's words undoubtedly confirmed the answer that she didn't dare to think about.
She couldn't help but take two steps back, and said with a trembling voice, "Could it be that you …"
"You finally found out."
An Lushan chuckled and said, "Your mother is a …"
Crash!!
He didn't get to finish his words.
A flash of lightning instantly swept across, and An Lushan was smashed into pieces.
"I don't want to hear any more of your nonsense."
Feng slowly lowered his left hand.
Kacha! Kacha!!
In the next moment, the pieces of An Lushan that were smashed by Feng's Moon Flash were bathed in purple chakra, and they gathered in one direction and reassembled.
He spread his hands, and with a proud smile on his face, he said, "I have obtained the power of the Dragon Vein, here, my power is infinite, I am immortal!!"
Crash!!
Along with An Lushan's movements.
A large number of puppets flew out from the nearby buildings, densely packed, and covered the entire square like a puppet army. In terms of the number of puppets alone, it is far more than Chiyo's group, and also more than Sasori's group. This is achieved by relying on the energy of the Dragon Vein, it is not a level that a puppet master can achieve by himself.
"This number …"
Kakashi's face slightly changed.
Naruto who landed next to Feng also said with a pale face: "How can there be so many of them, how do we deal with them, and that guy doesn't seem to be dead, this is troublesome!"
Originally, to deal with the puppets, they only needed to kill the puppeteer, but now that the puppeteer can't be killed, he almost didn't know how to deal with it!
Sara's face was also a little pale.
She didn't expect that An Lushan had already used the power of the Dragon Vein to create so many puppets, and he himself seemed to have merged with the power of the Dragon Vein, becoming immortal!
She couldn't help but look at Feng.
"It is indeed a little troublesome."
Feng glanced around, and his gaze fell on An Lushan's main body. He slowly pulled out the Kusanagi sword with his right hand, and lightning appeared on the sword's edge as he said to Sara:
"Hurry up and tell me the location of the source of the Dragon Vein, Sara.
Otherwise … I may not be able to guarantee that I won't destroy the environment here. "
