Meanwhile,
On the other side.
In the center of Sunagakure, inside the Kazekage's office.
Rasa was gravely examining a map of the Shinobi World, deliberating on the issue of attacking Amegakure.
Although he had just heard the sound of an explosion, he didn't pay much attention to it.
Because he was very confident in the strength of his Anbu.
But just then,
Suddenly, a panicked Sunagakure's Shinobi rushed in frantically and slammed directly onto the desk with a thud!
His face was pale as he looked at Rasa and stammered:
"It's b-bad... Kazekage-sama!"
"The two Anbu Teams you just dispatched... have been defeated by the enemy..."
"!!"
Rasa's movements instantly froze!
"...What did you say?!"
Then, before this person could react, he immediately deeply frowned, his expression very gloomy:
"A total of fourteen Anbu were dispatched, and they were defeated in such a short time?!"
"Damn it! Just how many enemies are there?!"
"..."
Hearing this, that Shinobi's expression instantly turned uglier than crying. After hesitating for a long time, he bitterly said:
"J-just one."
"From beginning to end, it seemed like there was only him..."
"Huh???"
As the words fell, Rasa's expression was instantly dumbfounded, ten thousand question marks appearing in his mind at the same time.
'Huh?!'
'Just one...?'
'You must be joking!?'
'One person can annihilate fourteen Anbu in such a short time?!'
'Did Hanzo himself come?!'
'No... wrong!'
'If it were that old guy Hanzo, his poison would probably have been recognized by now...'
'That is to say, it's very likely a hidden powerhouse from Amegakure!'
Realizing this,
Rasa instantly gritted his teeth and directly stood up.
He stared at the direction of the distant sky, suddenly narrowed his eyes, and said deeply:
"Hmph!"
"It seems this time,"
"Amegakure is determined to make a move on our Sunagakure, actually sending out a Kage-level powerhouse..."
Rasa clearly understood now.
Someone who could instantly kill Jonin-level Anbu this quickly... besides Kage-level, no other possibility!
At this moment,
He knew if ordinary Shinobi were sent to face the enemy again, they would without a doubt be cannon fodder!
Thinking of this, Rasa's gaze instantly darkened. He looked at this Shinobi and said coldly:
"Let's go."
"Come with me,"
"Tell me the battle intelligence about him one by one... and then, I will deal with him."
Having said that, Rasa directly took down his Kazekage robe from the side, instantly draped it over himself, and walked straight out.
His confident stride demonstrated the powerful self-assurance of the Fourth Kazekage!
Seeing this scene also instantly made that Sunagakure's Shinobi's eyes slowly ignite with a glimmer of hope as he quickly followed.
However,
Just as the two stepped out of the office,
Suddenly, an unexpected figure appeared before Rasa.
"Huh?"
It was a child, only seven or eight years old.
He had thick dark circles under his eyes and the same red hair as Rasa, with the character "love" on his forehead.
However, although his appearance looked young,
The killing intent and bloodthirsty aura emanating from his eyes were exceptionally strong!
It was hard to believe that a seven or eight-year-old child's eyes could be like those of someone who had experienced countless killings...
He was Sunagakure's One-Tail Jinchuriki―
Gaara!
At this moment, seeing his appearance, the Sunagakure's Shinobi beside him immediately trembled in fear and quickly averted his gaze.
He didn't even dare to make eye contact with Gaara.
Rasa beside him was also momentarily stunned, then, as if suddenly thinking of something, his gaze flickered.
He looked at Gaara with an indifferent expression, speaking without any emotion:
"Our village has been invaded by an external enemy."
"I am going personally to protect the village now. You will come too, Gaara."
"Let the people of Amegakure feel the power of the ultimate weapon."
Having said that,
He didn't even look at Gaara, directly flicked his robe, and walked forward.
After hearing these words, Gaara's expression also showed no change, remaining as silent as ever.
Even hearing the words "ultimate weapon", he was already numb. He just indifferently looked at Rasa's back and said softly:
"Yes... Father."
As the words fell, he lifted his steps and followed Rasa's pace towards the outside of Sunagakure.
...
A moment later.
Rasa quickly arrived with a group of Sunagakure's Shinobi.
The Sunagakure crowd here instantly lit up with joy, a glimmer of hope once again appearing in their hearts.
"It's Kazekage-sama!"
"Fourth Kazekage, Rasa-sama has come personally!"
…
Hearing their voices,
Kyo raised his eyes expressionlessly and looked ahead.
As a result, this look immediately surprised him―
Unexpectedly, behind Rasa, there clearly followed a small child's figure, precisely Gaara!
Kyo slightly raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but reveal a smile.
He had originally planned to find a way to locate this One-Tail Jinchuriki after defeating Rasa.
Unexpectedly, this bastard Rasa brought his son over himself.
It makes his works easier.
Just as Kyo was pondering,
Rasa on the side naturally immediately noticed the situation here.
The first thing that caught his eye was the ruins everywhere and the scorched sand, followed by countless figures of Sunagakure's Shinobi lying on the ground...
The more he looked, the darker Rasa's expression became.
One of the proud Five Great Shinobi Villages, when had it ever been suppressed to this degree by a small country?!
This was simply a disgrace!
Tap.
Rasa's feet landed about two meters away from Kyo.
He could now clearly see the enemy's appearance.
Brown hair, the forehead protector of Amegakure, golden pupils, a sharply defined face, and a very leisurely, carefree smile on his face.
'Such a young Kage-level powerhouse...' In Rasa's memory, he had never heard of such a person.
Even stranger, this guy was actually from Amegakure.
'Were the new generation of Shinobi from that small place already this terrifyingly strong?'
Just as Rasa was pondering,
Suddenly, Kyo's voice came, interrupting his thoughts.
Kyo slightly raised his chin, glanced at Gaara, then looked at Rasa, and chuckled lightly:
"Truly worthy of being the number one loving father in the Shinobi World, Kazekage Rasa."
"Even bringing your young son along when going to the battlefield. Truly admirable."
"...?"
'Huh?'
As these words were uttered, Rasa's expression instantly froze.
'What? Number one loving father in the Shinobi World?'
'Is he talking about me...?'
Kyo's sudden opening line instantly sent Rasa's mind into a brief blank.
However, just a moment later,
He immediately realized that he seemed to have been mocked!
"!"
Rasa's heart instantly sank. Then, fixing his eyes on Kyo, he spoke deeply:
"Hmph, spouting empty words!"
"Person from Amegakure... you will die here because you underestimated him!"
Having said that,
Rasa didn't waste words, directly looking at Gaara beside him, his gaze grim, and coldly commanded:
"Go, Gaara!"
"Use your power, along with Shukaku's... to completely crush him!"
"Let the people of Amegakure know what a true ultimate weapon is!"
As the words fell,
Gaara immediately slightly raised his eyes, fiercely looking at Kyo ahead, stepped forward, and indifferently responded:
"Yes... Father!"
As the words fell,
He immediately manipulated the sandstorm and attacked forward!
"?!"
At this moment, seeing this scene,
The Sunagakure's Shinobi around instantly changed expression drastically, their minds in turmoil!
'Wh-what?!'
'Kazekage-sama actually ordered Gaara to fight?!'
'Doesn't this guy have that terrifying monster inside him?!'
'If he goes berserk―'
'That monster will attack indiscriminately!!'
Thinking of this,
a guard member immediately stepped forward and said with an ugly expression:
"Kazekage-sama! Please be cautious!!"
"Gaara has not fully mastered his power; he cannot be sent against the enemy!"
"If he loses emotional control and causes Shukaku to go berserk... it will undoubtedly put Sunagakure in an even more disadvantageous situation!!"
As the words fell, Rasa's expression instantly darkened, and he shouted:
"Fool!"
"Gaara himself is Sunagakure's weapon; every battle he fights is an experiment for the weapon!"
"If he always can't control Shukaku's power, he will never be able to enter his strongest form!"
"Sunagakure doesn't need such a weapon either!"
"Understand?!"
By the end, Rasa's gaze was chilling.
"!!"
As the words fell, the Sunagakure's Shinobi beside him instantly trembled all over and hurriedly said:
"U-understood, Kazekage-sama!"
