Chapter 342
After that, they ran towards the direction given by Parker, which was the River Country outside the Sand Country.
I have to say that this grandmother Chiyo is really capable. Although she is not young anymore, she is still very flexible and quick in this aspect.
Sakura was curious, "Naruto, can I ask you a question? When did Akatsuki start targeting you?"
As for this question, Naruto himself didn't know either. It was so sudden that time, so he could only say dryly, "I don't know..."
Kakashi knew more. "Two members of Akatsuki visited Konoha before, you should remember? Then they met Naruto at that time, and then they stagnated for 3 years, but now they are starting to move again."
What Sakura was concerned about was, "Why do we have to wait three years..."
Kakashi gave a relatively reasonable guess, "Maybe it's not that he doesn't want to take action, but maybe he can't take action? Naruto is always accompanied by Master Jiraiya..."
Granny Chiyo, who had been silent, finally spoke up. "No, according to the information I received, they had other reasons. They wanted to forcibly pull out the tailed beasts sealed in the human body, and they had to make the corresponding preparations, so they wasted time."
"The tailed beasts..."
At present, we only know that Gaara of Sunagakure has the one-tailed beast Shukaku sealed inside him, and Naruto has the nine-tailed beast sealed inside him, which is said to be the fox demon Kurama? We don't know where the other tailed beasts are, after all, this is considered a secret?
Then, Granny Chiyo explained the tailed beasts, "Yes, just like the Sand Village had the One-Tail a long time ago, the tailed beasts have characteristics, and the number of their tails is different. The One-Tail has one tail, the Two-Tail has two tails, and so on until the Nine-Tail. Their names represent the number of their tails, and the tailed beasts are huge collections of chakra."
"So during the Ninja War, the ninja villages of various countries wanted to use them as military forces, and they would do anything to get them, but no one could control the huge power beyond human knowledge. Although I don't know why Akatsuki wanted to get them, that power is too dangerous. However, in peacetime, things have changed, and now the tailed beasts seem to be scattered all over the world..."
Sakura took a look at Naruto's state. Sure enough, he was in a very low mood... If he had a choice, maybe Naruto didn't want to be a human pillar? After all, he was isolated and called a fox demon by the people in the village since he was a child...
However, I heard that Lady Tsunade asked Gai's team to come for support, and the team also includes Gai and Neji, who are also two senior ninjas. It can be said that Konoha really has great sincerity this time.
"Everyone stop!" Kakashi called out quickly.
Sakura looked at the man standing in front of them not far away. Isn't this Uchiha Itachi? Is he here to intercept them so soon?
If they were intercepted by someone, then Mr. Kai must have been intercepted by someone as well. After all, the distance from the Land of Fire to the Land of Rivers is much shorter than the distance from the Land of Sand to the Land of Rivers...
Perhaps to highlight the atmosphere at the moment, wind blew around, causing waves on the grass on the ground, blowing the leaves off the trees, and the clouds in the sky were terrifyingly gloomy.
Only Granny Chiyo beside him seemed not to be afraid at all, and looked Uchiha Itachi up and down, "Oh? Is this kid the one who killed the whole clan?"
