Chapter 408 Obito is also picking up children.
Within the confined space, Granny Chiyo's superb puppetry skills were difficult to execute. Ultimately, the endless quantity overwhelmed absolute quality.
As the last puppet was hacked to pieces, Granny Chiyo knelt dejectedly on the ground. Her hair was disheveled, and her body was covered in blood.
Sasori of the Red Sand hovered high in the air, looking down at her.
"Heh, so I'm going to die by your hand after all? I never imagined I'd end up like this." Granny Chiyo slowly closed her eyes. However, the weapon that Scorpion was using to stab her suddenly stopped in front of her.
Was he being soft-hearted? Not at all. The sound coming from outside the cave interrupted his attack.
Nagatoshi's voice came from outside: "Scorpion, something's happened in Sunagakure. A stronger force has arrived with reinforcements. We must evacuate immediately."
Sasori of the Red Sand remained silent for a few seconds before recalling his puppet. "Old woman, you're lucky."
As soon as he finished speaking, he leaped out of the cave and landed on the back of the giant ink bird that Changxin had summoned outside the cave.
Granny Chiyo chased after the giant bird to the cave entrance, looked up and watched it spread its wings and fly high, gradually turning into a black dot, and finally disappearing into the vast sea of sand.
She stood there, stunned, her lips trembling slightly: "He...is he letting me go?"
Perhaps so, but no one can give an answer.
Granny Chiyo turned around and, with heavy steps, walked back into the depths of the cave. She came to Gaara's body.
Its small body was cold and stiff, but the expression on its face was unexpectedly peaceful, as if it were immersed in a peaceful sleep without nightmares.
"Such a young child..." Granny Chiyo knelt beside him, gently stroking his tender little face, "They didn't even spare him."
She had promised to rescue him, but she ultimately failed. She picked up the child's body, her eyes suddenly hardening: "No, I can't go back like this."
She looked at the small body again; the child was unharmed. In that instant, she suddenly felt that this might be God giving him a final chance for redemption before he passed away.
"The Fourth Kazekage is gone, but at least I will protect his child."
She took a deep breath and swiftly formed hand seals: "Medical Ninjutsu - Reincarnation of Self!"
This is a forbidden technique that Granny Chiyo has devoted her entire life to researching. It costs the caster all their life force to transfer their own life energy to the dead, allowing them to be resurrected.
"Sister!" Outside the cave entrance, Chiyo's younger brother, Ebizo, finally arrived with the remaining patrol team.
"Brother..." Granny Chiyo didn't turn around. At this moment, she was burning her own life to save another life. "You've come at the right time. Keep watch for me and don't let anyone disturb us."
"Sister, you've gone mad!" Ebizo rushed forward, trying to interrupt his Reincarnation technique. "You'll die!"
"I know. But some things are more important than living."
[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: 10 ...
Looking into his sister's eyes, Ebizo saw no guilt, no obsession with atonement, only a sense of... relief.
"Haha, so many years have passed, and I've completely forgotten that I'm a medical ninja, forgotten that saving lives is my duty. Little brother, I've lost. I've been utterly defeated in puppetry. But I still have medical ninjutsu, and I can't be defeated on this path as well. At least... at least before I die, I must save an innocent life."
This can be seen as putting a period to the mistakes he made back then.
As time passed, her skin dried up at a visible rate, and her already hunched body became even more withered and shriveled.
But the light emanating from the spell in her hands grew even brighter. "Child... wake up."
Gaara's eyelids trembled slightly, and he slowly opened them.
What came into view were two elderly people: an extremely old woman, sitting quietly on the ground with her eyes closed.
Another equally aged grandfather stood in front of him, his back to him.
Gaara reached out his little hand and gently grasped the hem of Chiyo's clothes.
"Mother-in-law?"
There was no response; she was dead.
Ebizo turned around, stepped forward, squatted down, and carefully lifted Gaara out of Granny Chiyo's stiff embrace.
"Child, it's all over now. Come on, let's go back to the village. Sister, I'll take you home too." Hai Laozang turned around, holding the child, and fought back tears in his eyes.
The ninjas behind her stepped forward and lifted up Granny Chiyo's body.
"Gaara, remember this day, you will surely become..."
A strange vortex suddenly appeared, and Ebizo's head instantly disappeared into the vortex, blood gushing out and splattering all over Gaara's face.
He's dead! He's actually dead!
At this moment, Gaara's eyes widened, and for the first time, an expression of shock appeared on his face.
It was strange. Even though only one person had died, and he had killed quite a few people in his daily life, he felt an inexplicable urge to cry.
Gaara didn't understand; he didn't understand what this sudden emotion was.
Before he could react, another vortex appeared in the air, and a man wearing an orange mask appeared in front of him.
The surrounding Chunin and Jonin were all pierced through the body by the Wood Release: Wood Spike Technique that emerged from the ground. Their shrill screams rose and fell, and they all perished in a short time.
Ultimately, Gaara fell into the hands of Obito Uchiha.
"Did you kill them?"
"Hehehe, it's naturally me." Obito chuckled, completely disregarding the threat in his eyes.
"Then go die!"
Gaara raised his hand, but the expected sandstorm did not arrive.
It turns out that Shukaku has disappeared, and he has very little chakra left in his body. Even his protective Masaru has become completely ineffective under the opponent's control.
A sense of powerlessness spread through him, but the hatred in his eyes intensified.
"That kind of look is really an eyesore." Obito grabbed him by the back of his collar and slapped him hard on the buttocks.
A wave of humiliation washed over Gaara, and he roared inwardly, vowing to make the person before him pay the price!
But what he received in return was a series of punishments.
"Kid, you hate me? You think I killed them? Let me tell you, even if I didn't do it, they wouldn't be alive. Your father is dead, and your village has already been destroyed."
"That's strange, why aren't you sad? Oh, I see. The death of the Fourth Kazekage is probably a very satisfying thing for you, isn't it?"
"However, your older brother and sister have already fallen into the hands of evil people and will soon be trained to be killing tools and become someone else's henchmen."
"Now, only I can help you. Stop looking at me with that resentful gaze; it annoys me. If it weren't for that naughty little guy desperately needing a playmate, I wouldn't bother with you at all."
After Obito finished speaking with a face full of disgust, his body turned into an illusion and disappeared into the vast desert.
