Chapter 303: The Request of the Sand Village (7)
Sakura looked at Naruto's confused face, sighed, and didn't ask any more questions. She could only stare at the glowing coffin quietly.
After the dazzling white light, a white-haired young man walked out of the coffin. The shriveled corpse had actually come back to life?
The man looked at Sakura and Naruto, and introduced himself elegantly, "My name is Qingming, and I'm the founder of the Artisan Village." Then he opened his arms, "Now, after a hundred years, I have officially been resurrected as the ultimate ninja tool of the Artisan Village!"
Just as Qingming performed a technique, the suit beside him emitted a brighter light. This light made Sakura couldn't help but slightly turn her head. What was going on?
Then Qingming started talking to himself, "Hahaha... My long-cherished wish has finally come true at this moment. From now on, our Artisan Village will reign at the top of ninjas! So, the source of my power is the monsters of the Sand Village."
"Bao Gui told me that there is a monster living inside Gaara of the Sand Village. He will soon be completely transformed into the monster Shukaku in the cage. I can continuously take chakra from Shukaku..."
While Sakura was still thinking about how to rescue Gaara from the cage, Naruto had already rushed over, shouting, "I will never let you succeed!"
…
However, the kunai thrown by Naruto was easily knocked down by the weapons wrapped around Qingming's body. Even his body was stabbed in the shoulder by the strange weapon and fell to the ground.
If I remember correctly, the Artisan Village is a place that has been around for less than two hundred years but is famous throughout the ninja world for the blades it created. Its main purpose is to help Gaara break free from his constraints.
Sakura relied on the surrounding water to start hand seals, "Ninjutsu: Frozen Thousand Miles."
The surrounding water vapor instantly condensed into ice, and the temperature of the entire valley dropped sharply. This change also made Qingming focus his attention on Xiaoying, "Hmm? Very special..."
The icy mist spreading in the air clung firmly to the cage, but its strange hardness made Sakura couldn't help but frown.
However, because of the layer of frost on the cage, Qingming was unable to extract the chakra of Shukaku in Gaara's body. If the previous look was just teasing, then the look now was full of murderous intent, "Who are you? No matter who you are... you can't stop me! I will let those ninjas from the five major countries who have always looked down on us artisan ninjas see our resentment for a hundred years... You will definitely become our victims!"
Sakura didn't intend to answer his question, so Naruto quickly took advantage of the gap to rescue Jasmine, Gaara's student, and asked Jasmine to hide behind a rock. Then he shouted, "Are you kidding? We will never give our power to a guy like you. We will definitely rescue Gaara! Do you understand?"
"Just you guys?" Qingming released the energy of the armor and kept switching attacks. Although Sakura was able to dodge, she was more or less injured. However, compared to Naruto, her condition was considered minor.
Naruto's body was already in tatters, and although Sakura gave him an ice shield in time, he couldn't do two things at once in this situation.
Qingming floated in the air, watching the two people who were still thinking about how to save the monster even though they were in such a mess, "Why do you insist on doing this? What is the relationship between the monsters in the Sand Village and you?"
"He is our companion."
This sentence also made Jasmine, who was hiding behind the rock, take out her own weapon and entangle Qingming's blade.
Sakura leaped up, and the ice in her hand turned into a hard spear, which she stabbed into the cage.
The spear not only contained a large amount of chakra, but also was attached with Sakura's strange power. After a violent collision, Sakura was suddenly knocked away by the reaction force caused by the collision and fell to the ground in embarrassment.
Sakura half-knelt on the ground, thinking in her heart that if it weren't for the broken spear in her hand, she would have to roll a few more times, which would have been really embarrassing.
At this time Gaara also walked out of the cage, but at this time he was in a half-Shukaku state, with saliva constantly flowing from the corners of his mouth, which made Naruto very worried.
"This is Shukaku? This is the first time I see him..."
Sakura didn't care about the pain, and quickly pulled up Jasmine who was thrown to the ground by Qingming. She looked at Gaara worriedly, "But Gaara-sensei..."
Looking at this stubborn child, Sakura couldn't stop having a headache, "Leave first, this is not a battle you can participate in!"
Jasmine could only nod and run towards safety.
After watching Jasmine reach the safe area, Sakura began to sit cross-legged and regulate her breathing. The blade was worthy of being made by the Artisan Village. Even the cage was terrifyingly strong.
