Chapter 6 Shukaku, you're a bit of a goofball.
Sasuke forcibly gathered Chakra, intending to use Chidori once more to deliver a fatal blow to Gaara.
However, in the face of reality, everything Sasukedid was so childish.
His body, unable to bear the burden, collapsed directly.
Originally, he could have escaped using the little Chakra he had left.
But now, he could only lie sprawled on a tree trunk, watching Gaara's large claws approach him.
Just at the critical moment, a figure suddenly appeared; he kicked Gaara flying away.
It was Naruto.
Naruto didn't look back, merely saying playfully, "Two Sticks, you seem to be in quite a sorry state."
"Damn it! You bastard!"
Sasuke was furious at Naruto's words, then he remembered something and quickly said to Naruto, "Naruto, hurry and leave! This guy isn't someone you can handle. You must get the teacher here!"
Sasuke had fought against Gaara's transformed hand and knew how strong Gaara was.
And in his understanding, even if Naruto went all out, he might not be able to harm Gaara in the slightest.
Naruto smiled faintly.
"Two Sticks, just lie there and watch my performance."
After speaking, Naruto's expression darkened, and he roared, "Busoshoku Haki!"
Then he vanished with a whoosh, swinging his fist and charging straight at Gaara.
During the process, he once again used Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu. Seeing this, Gaara swung his large claws, shattering one Shadow Clone after another.
But Naruto's main body arrived directly, delivering One Punch to Gaara's face.
"Idiot! Your attacks are useless."
Gaara already possessed absolute defense, and after Shukaku's transformation, Gaara's offense and defense were both enhanced.
Gaara sneered.
"One after another, you all come seeking death. Then I shall grant your wish!"
He roared, ignoring Naruto's attack, and clawed at Naruto.
Naruto didn't dodge, as if he intended to fight Gaara to the death.
Gaara sneered inwardly, knowing he had absolute defense and thus wasn't afraid of Naruto's attack.
Moreover, even if Naruto landed One Punch, what would it matter? His claw could take Naruto's life.
The sand around Gaara vibrated, forming a barrier directly in front of him.
However, Naruto's seemingly ordinary One Punchdirectly broke through the barrier of absolute defense, and Gaara was actually sent flying by Naruto.
His entire face was disfigured.
"What!"
If Sasuke hadn't already been exhausted, he would have cried out in surprise by now.
Just then, Sakura also arrived.
In the original story, Sakura was directly subdued by Gaara after arriving, but now, due to Naruto's early arrival, Sakura was spared.
She somewhat helplessly approached the battlefield, watching Naruto send Gaara flying with a single blow, and Sasuke sprawled on a distant tree trunk.
After some thought, she still went to Sasuke's side.
"Sasuke-kun, are you hurt?"
Sakura asked with concern.
"I'll take you back to the teacher now."
Saying this, she moved to help Sasuke up and leave.
Sasuke struggled free from Sakura's grasp and said, "Wait a moment, Naruto is still fighting."
"But your body can't help anymore."
Sakura reminded him worriedly.
Sasuke didn't answer Sakura. He, of course, knew he couldn't help, but today's Naruto was truly too unfamiliar.
Both his style of handling things and his strength made Sasuke feel unfamiliar and terrifying.
Shukaku of the Sand had already been sent flying by Naruto, crashing into a large tree.
Gaara climbed up from the tree trunk, roaring furiously, "Ah! You are so hateful, you actually made me bleed! I want you dead!"
Blood seeped from Gaara's mouth, staining the sand on his face.
He looked eerie and terrifying.
He slowly closed his eyes, then both his arms and one leg were enveloped by sand, transforming into the shape of a monster.
Seeing such a scene, Naruto shook his head, "Is that the Impure World Reincarnation? I advise you to just release Shukaku of the Sand directly, otherwise, you're really no match for me now."
The current Gaara hadn't fully fallen into slumber yet; his consciousness still dominated his body.
Upon hearing Naruto's words, he was so angry his teeth itched.
From childhood, everyone around him feared him, but only Naruto not only showed no fear but even mocked him like this.
"If that's the case, then I will bring disaster upon your Konoha!"
Saying this, Gaara's mind and body completely sank, handing his body over to Shukaku of the Sand.
Boom!
A huge muffled sound echoed through the valley.
Then dust flew up.
Shukaku of the Sand's wild laughter enveloped the entire forest.
"I'm out! I'm out! This brat finally let me out! Let me see who to kill first?"
Shukaku of the Sand happily patted his belly.
Looking around, only Naruto, Sakura, and Sasukestood before Shukaku of the Sand.
"Only you three brats? It seems you three pushed Gaara into a very sorry state, to the point where I have to come out to resolve it."
"Originally, I should thank you, for without you, I wouldn't have been able to see the light of day again."
"But I must kill you, otherwise he won't be happy, so I can only mercifully give you a quick death."
Shukaku of the Sand spoke in human language, describing killing so casually, as if it were an everyday meal.
It made one's scalp tingle.
Sakura and Sasuke looked incredulously at Shukaku's massive body; from their angle, they couldn't even see all of Shukaku's body.
Shukaku's oppressive aura made the two of them dare not move.
"What exactly is this, a summoned beast? It seems this time we're really in grave danger."
Sasuke felt as if he was about to meet his end.
Sakura was even more terrified and started crying.
"It's over, this time it's really over."
She no longer knew how to handle it. How wonderful it would be if a great hero appeared now to rescue their Team Seven.
Naruto, however, observed Shukaku of the Sandwith interest.
Then he said faintly, "It seems you're indeed not as powerful as Nine-Tailed."
The aura and density of Chakra of Nine-Tailedwere far superior to Shukaku of the Sand.
Especially in terms of aura, Shukaku of the Sandseemed a bit comical in Naruto's eyes.
Shukaku of the Sand's mouth twitched upon hearing Naruto's words, then he roared furiously, "What are you saying? I'm not as good as that little fox? You actually said I'm not as good as that little fox?"
"Then I'll show you now how mighty your Grandpa Shukaku is!"
Saying this, Shukaku of the Sand directly raised his large claw and slammed it down heavily, intending to slap Naruto to death with one blow.
Naruto merely sighed.
"Alas!"
Shukaku didn't understand the reason for Naruto's sigh. He only saw Naruto slowly forming hand seals with two fingers joined together.
"Adamantine Chains!"
