Chapter 72 The Death of Guangxin
Chapter 72 The Death of Guangxin
Yagura Karatachi kept a close eye on Chiyo's movements, but what reassured him was...
Perhaps it was because of the Uchiha clan's honor, or perhaps it was out of consideration for him.
Chiyo did not choose to pursue Juzo Biwa and Zabuza, but stayed where he was.
Seeing the coral appearing on Susanoo's body, Chiyo immediately canceled Susanoo and walked out from the gap.
The fighting has been going on here for a long time; there are no living creatures left around.
The current Qianyao doesn't have the problem of being pretentious; they don't just stand there posing for ages, purely waiting for everyone to leave.
Because what he was about to do was something that couldn't be done in the light of day.
"You know what, running into me is your bad luck."
After everyone left, Qian Yao dropped the pretense. He slightly narrowed his eyes, and then his pupil power erupted:
Amaterasu!
As Yagura's heart tightened, black flames suddenly slammed into him!
"Ah...uh...ah..."
The intense pain caused Yagura Karatachi to let out a piercing scream. He rolled on the ground, but he could not extinguish the black flames.
Yagura had never seen Amaterasu before, nor did he know how to break it.
Amidst piercing screams, he was burned unconscious within seconds.
Chiyo extinguished Amaterasu and walked up to Yagura, who was already three-quarters ripe.
He stretched out his hand and summoned a crow with a bang.
With his other hand, he pried open Yagura's eyelids, and the four-cornered windmill in the crow's eyes began to turn.
……
Let's rewind time to before the Nine-Tails went berserk.
Konan detonated the explosive tags brought by Hyuga Mitsunobu, and these tags in turn detonated the explosive tags that Gen'ou had placed in Konoha more than 20 years ago.
There are many ways to trigger an explosion using an explosive tag. Konan is using chakra-based triggering and destruction-based triggering here.
After Xiao Nan's detonation tag was detonated, the other detonation tags followed suit and detonated in a chain reaction.
The destruction of the Hokage Rock by the Third Hokage was just the beginning.
Back then, Master Xuan arranged the entire old neighborhood into an area for detonating explosive tags.
Now, these areas are entirely inhabited by Sarutobi people.
The Third Hokage originally thought that if the entire Uchiha clan mobilized, then these clan members would be the key to suppressing the Uchiha.
However, none of the Uchiha clan members left their clan territory. The Third Hokage only transferred about three hundred people to try and plug the gap and annihilate the enemy.
The explosive tags in the distance detonated the explosive tags in front of them, and it only took a few seconds.
If about 700 people were left here, they would be in serious trouble; most of them didn't even realize what was happening.
With a tremendous roar, hundreds of people were killed instantly!
More than 100 people were seriously injured.
Everyone else was injured...
"Ah..."
"Why are there explosive tags...?"
"Ah... my legs... my legs..."
"I can't see..."
"My hands!..."
The scene was filled with cries of pain; the agony of a severed limb is something no one can bear.
Even the Sarutobi clan was the same; the ground was covered in the stench of burnt human flesh and bloody remains.
More than 700 people were instantly rendered incapable of fighting.
At that moment, amidst the smoke and dust of the explosion, Hyuga Mitsunobu was the first to arrive at the scene.
"how so!?"
Guangxin looked shocked, but his eyes held a hidden sense of vengeful pleasure.
"Quickly, save them! Those with minor injuries, stand up! Gather the seriously injured together!"
"The medical team will be here soon! Hang in there, everyone!"
"Quick! Listen to Elder Guangxin, save them first!"
With a leader in mind, the Sarutobi clan quickly sprang into action.
The scene was chaotic. No one expected that Mitsunori, as an elder of the Hyuga branch family, would appear here so quickly, and alone.
No one expected that the Hyuga clan, who should be monitoring the entire village, would not have discovered these explosive tags.
The Sarutobi clan felt they had found a leader, and they gathered the seriously injured together to wait for a medical team that didn't even exist.
After all, they were all ninjas, and those with minor injuries could heal others very quickly.
In a short period of time, more than seventy people gathered, of whom more than twenty were seriously injured, with broken hands and feet.
The other fifty people suffered less severe injuries; at least none of them had broken arms or legs.
At this moment, Sarutobi Ryunosuke and Hyuga Souta arrived in a hurry.
The former happened to be leading others to blockade the walls of Konoha.
The latter was originally waiting in the clan, but after the Tailed Beast Ball erupted in the village, the situation changed.
The two rushed back immediately after receiving the news.
They saw limbs and severed bodies scattered all over the ground, and Hyuga Mitsunobu directing the rescue efforts.
Both Sarutobi Ryunosuke and Hyuga Souta were stunned.
Immediately following, Ryunosuke Sarutobi was enraged:
"Elder Guangxin! Why did this happen? Isn't your Hyuga clan supposed to be in charge of monitoring Konoha?"
"Why weren't any detonators found here?!"
Guangxin helped a Sarutobi clansman whose leg had been blown off to the gathering place.
As he walked toward the lightly wounded, he answered:
"How could we not have noticed? My people reported these explosive tags to me long ago."
"But what can I do if the main family members don't report this to the Hokage?"
When Guangxin's words came, even the heavily injured Sarutobi clansmen forgot to cry out in pain.
Because of the next moment.
Guangxin ripped open his clothes, revealing they were full of explosive tags.
And these detonators have already started to sizzle!
"Hahahahaha!"
Guangxin dropped the pretense and burst into laughter, his face contorted with rage.
"Back then, Hiruzen Sarutobi forced my Lord Hizashi to take the blame and die! This is my revenge!"
As he spoke, Guangxin leaped into the middle of the lightly wounded.
A profound sense of fear surfaced in Sota's eyes.
She didn't even have time to say a word to Guangxin; she only exchanged a glance with Guangxin as he turned around.
then.
"Boom!!"
The massive explosion created a huge cloud of smoke, and the ground shook violently.
The powerful explosion, along with the ejected steel nails, sent limbs and blood flying everywhere in the vicinity!
The seriously wounded were drenched from head to toe.
"Ouch...it hurts..."
"My leg..."
"I can't see..."
"Ah, steel nails..."
The lightly wounded battalion and the heavily wounded battalion were right next to each other. Guangxin's self-destruction this time was clearly well-prepared, and he even brought a large number of steel nails.
The explosion, coupled with the flying steel nails, killed more than twenty people instantly.
Even those with minor injuries were missing limbs.
Even those who dodged the flying steel nails from the explosion were seriously injured.
Ryunosuke Sarutobi, his face covered in cold sweat, thanked Sota beside him: "Thank you, Sota."
If Sota hadn't pulled him back when he jumped backward, Ryunosuke would probably be dead by now.
Sota wasn't acting out of kindness; rather, he understood the final look in Lord Mitsunobu's eyes.
He needs a microphone to get his words out.
Sota's face was somewhat pale, but he had already hidden his grief.
He shook his head upon hearing this:
"This matter is a bit troublesome. Let's save them first. I need to go back and report. Excuse me."
Ryunosuke looked at his clansmen groaning all over the ground, and his heart ached so much that he could hardly breathe.
If one has healthy hands and feet, they can always recover.
Those with severed arms and legs will have to be removed from the combat ranks.
No wonder Hyuga Mitsunobu was so kind as to direct the rescue of the wounded.
When he finally died, he dragged even more capable Sarutobi clan members down with him.
Guangxin's final self-disclosure directly affected more than fifty people.
This retaliation was undeniably ruthless.
