Behind the Scenes in Naruto World

Chapter 286: A Game of Luck in Kumogakure

The battlefield was silent.

None of Kumo’s ninjas had ever thought that one day, Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee would lose so quickly in the hands of the enemy and even lose to their own famous technique.

“Raikage-sama and Killer Bee-sama…”

“The enemy defeated them…”

Kumo subconsciously swallowed his saliva. This was the first time they had seen Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee in such a sorry state. They could not even defend or counterattack.

Uehara stood in front of Ai and twisted his wrist. He said softly, “Well, since you have lost, I will accept this Hachibi Jinchuriki, next to you!”

After saying that, Uehara reached out to grab Killer Bee, who was on the ground. However, in the next moment, a huge octopus tentacle suddenly sprang out from Killer Bee’s body and wrapped around Uehara’s body!

The lower half of Killer Bee’s body instantly transformed into huge tentacles that supported him to stand up. This Hachibi Jinchuriki grimaced at Uehara and provocatively said happily, “Bakayarō! I haven’t lost yet!”

The upper half of Killer Bee’s body was also changing rapidly. In the blink of an eye, he had completely transformed into a Bijuu. The huge Hachibi Gyūki stared at Uehara, caught by his tentacles like a tiger eyeing its prey!

“This is really troublesome…”

Uehara rubbed his forehead and instantly disappeared from the tentacles. He appeared above Hachibi and said, “Can’t you guys just lie on the ground obediently and be captured by me?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Uehara kicked Hachibi’s head!

This huge Bijuu was kicked in the head by Uehara. Hachibi’s head was a little twisted, and his body was sent flying in the next moment!

Uehara’s figure disappeared again, appearing in the spot where Hachibi was sent flying. He raised his fist and punched Hachibi’s head again!

Hachibi was directly smashed to the ground by this fist!

However, Hachibi seemed to be tougher than Uehara had imagined. Even after suffering two heavy blows in succession, he still firmly climbed back up.

Uehara slowly twisted his fist; he smiled and praised, “Compared to Gobi, your body is really tough…”

This was true.

The other Bijuu basically could not withstand three or two of his punches. Hachibi’s body looked pretty soft, but he could hold on.

“Bastard!”

Hachibi gritted his teeth and stared at Uehara.

The way the smiling enemy fought reminded him of the Third Raikage, who had died in the battle. That Raikage was so powerful that no one could resist him at all…

No, that was not right.

This enemy was even stronger than that Third Raikage!

If it were in the past, perhaps he would have wanted to have a good fight with you and enjoy the pleasure of treating Bijuu as a sandbag.

Uehara rubbed his fingers and slowly walked towards Hachibi. He softly continued, “Unfortunately, I don’t like octopuses…”

“Bastard!”

Hachibi opened his mouth and cursed. The eight octopus arm under him drove it towards Uehara!

Hachibi felt as if he was retching. After coughing a few times violently, he suddenly shot out Bijudama at Uehara!

“Are you crazy?”

Uehara frowned and stretched out his palm, rapidly sending the Bijudama flying!

Taking advantage of Hachibi’s astonishment, Uehara suddenly rushed to Hachibi’s side, clenched his fist, and punched Hachibi’s body!

This Bijuu was once again sent flying!

“Ishi no Kyodaina-te (Giant Hand of Stone)!”

Uehara suddenly spread out his palm. Under his control, huge yellowish-brown stone hands suddenly sprang out from the ground.

It directly grabbed Hachibi’s head and all the tails beneath him.

Every time Hachibi struggled to break free from the restraint of a stone hand, another stone hand would jump out and repeat itself. Soon, Hachibi was completely pressed to the ground by a giant stone hand.

Anyone present could see it.

Hachibi was powerless to fight back against Uehara.

Ai looked at all of this with a ferocious expression. He was trying his best to get up from the ground, but the serious injury on his chest made him unable to help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

Raikage’s female secretary, Mabui, gradually became nervous. Her gaze slowly shifted to a certain Kumo Ninja, “Darui, now we…”

“Other than continuing to fight, we have no other choice.”

Darui’s dead fish eyes slowly looked at Uehara in the distance. He casually said, “In the past, it was Raikage-sama and Bee-sama who used their lives to protect us. Now, it is finally time for us to protect them with our lives…”

Darui was not very serious when he spoke.

This was his personality, but his laziness was comparable to that of Kakashi. However, this did not affect his strength at all.

Just as the other Kumo Ninjas nodded and expressed that Darui convinced them, they saw him disappear in a flash!

The next moment, the ninja who Fourth Raikage had high hopes for had already rushed out. He suddenly stretched out his palm and shot out a laser beam in Hachibi’s direction, “Ranton, Reizā Sākasu (Storm Release: Laser Circus).”

The laser beam actually directly pierced through the giant stone hand!

After the giant stone hand was broken, the other Kumo Ninjas also rushed forward like Darui. Under the attack of a group of lightning ninjutsu, the giant stone hand was directly broken, and Hachibi was quickly freed!

Since Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee were both defeated, the next opponent would be the entire ninja of Kumogakure!

Darui was not as strong as Fourth Raikage Ai.

However, his ability to mobilize troops was obviously stronger. Because he was not Raikage yet, he did not need to care too much about face problems. Thousands of Kumo ninja stood densely on this wide arena, facing Akatsuki’s group of four people.

“Hey, Darui!”

Ai was supported by someone and walked to the side of Darui. He frowned and ordered, “You immediately take the people to evacuate here; I will entangle the enemy, and then use the Chakra cannon to blast this place to the ground directly!!”

This was where Raikage was more rigid.

If they encountered an invincible enemy on the battlefield, they would not mind using their lives to perish together with the enemy.

In order to cover their retreat, Third Raikage Ai fought against tens of thousands of Iwa Ninja until he finally died from exhaustion.

As the successor, Fourth Raikage was not inferior. Every war, he would charge forward and retreat along with everyone. Even some dangerous tasks had always been carried out by him personally. Now, it was normal for Fourth Raikage and Uehara to die together.

After a moment of silence, Darui suddenly said, “Raikage-sama, please hand over the battlefield to us. I believe that our strength can defeat the enemy!”

“Yes, Raikage-sama.”

Mabui supported Fourth Raikage’s arms and said softly, “Raikage-sama, what you need now is rest and treatment…”

“… Okay.”

Fourth looked deeply at Darui and said softly, “Then I will leave everything here to you, Darui!”

Darui was originally the successor to the Fourth Raikage, so he was optimistic about him.

Now, it seemed that it wasn’t wrong to hand over the responsibility to him in advance, right?

After he finished speaking, Ai turned to Hachibi and shouted loudly, “Hey, completely listen to Darui’s orders for the next battle, understand?”

“Don’t worry.”

Hachibi nodded in a low and muffled voice.

Kumo ninjas moved quickly under the orders of Darui. Thousands of Kumo ninjas were divided into combat squads. They surrounded Akatsuki’s four people from the periphery of the arena. If they could not breakthrough with a single strength, then they would use the number advantage!

Just as Uehara was calmly watching Kumo ninjas move, he hooked his lips and casually closed his palm, “I understand your ignorance, just like how I will forgive ignorant ants for climbing over my feet…”

Looking at the anger on the Kumo’s ninjas faces, Uehara chuckled and continued, “But what I can’t forgive is that you only sent more than a thousand people to besiege me. Are you here to humiliate me?”

Uehara’s face instantly became ugly. He stared at Darui in front of him and said in a gloomy voice, “Fūton, Ransu (Wind Release: Lance)!”

Eight gusts of wind that were over a hundred meters tall spread out from Uehara’s surroundings. Each gust of wind was like a lance, leaving a deep gully on the arena and quickly piercing through the Kumo ninja’s formation!

In the blink of an eye, the thousands of Kumo ninjas that had surrounded them were directly torn apart by the huge wind lance Uehara released!

No matter what kind of defensive ninjutsu it was, it was practically useless in front of these hundred meters of violent wind attacks.

Especially that the wind ninjutsu restrains lightning ninjutsu.

“Alright.”

Uehara raised his head to look at the sky and said softly, “I do not have much time left; there is no need to continue teasing you guys…”

“What do you mean?”

Darui and Ai frowned at the same time. This guy had beaten their leader to the point of looking for his teeth that was all over the ground. Could it be that he wanted to leave just like this?

“It means this!”

Uehara suddenly raised his finger, and he shot a cloud of ice crystal-colored chakra into the air. Uehara softly said, “In the process of me destroying Kumogakure, whether the people present can survive or not will depend on their luck…”

Pitter-patter…

A drop of rain fell to the ground.

Then there was a dense hail.

Just as Kumo ninjas frowned and looked into the sky, they saw hailstone falling from the sky. A hailstone that was over a hundred meters in size slammed into the arena and sent the Kumo ninjas flying!
