Chapter 44: Chapter 44 Bunpuku And Shukaku
"Kazekage-sama, someone is chasing after us. Their speed is very fast, and we will be chased soon!"
Sunagakure's Sensor Shinobi can perceive Asahi's presence. After all, Asahi also has Chakra in his body, so he will inevitably be discovered when he gets closer.
"Did they catch up so soon? Kazekage, what shall we do now?"
Chiyo and the others looked at Rasa. It's not that they didn't have their own ideas, but now that Rasa is still there, it's not good for them to skip over Rasa and directly implement their own decisions. Moreover, any wrong decisions made can be blamed on Rasa, and they are not guilty.
"That's really fast! Divide the army into ten groups and retreat in a scattered manner immediately. In addition, keep Bunpuku here, and make him try to resist as long as he can!"
Rasa was also ruthless. He didn't even care about the Biju of his own village. However, now that he had already made such a decision to bring Bunpuku out of the prison, he'll take care of follow-up matters later. As for now, he just wanted solve the problem in front of him first.
"Kazekage, you have to think about it again. Once we lost the Biju, our village will lose the weapon to deter the other villages!"
Chiyo, Ebizo and the others couldn't help but feel a little horrified. Rasa's decision was indeed very special. At least, they didn't dare to do something like this. After all, once the Biju was lost, it would be a tragedy.
"Don't worry, at most Bunpuku will die, but the Biju can still recover, and Shukaku has always only recovered in our Sunagakure's territory. If we win the bet this time, we will get the benefit that is worth much more than a Biju! And with Bunpuku's character, even if he died, he will not let the Biju fall into the hands of the othes."
Rasa shook her head. At most they will just let Shukaku die once, but Shukaku has always there with Sunagakure. Even when Hashirama distributed the Biju, Sunagakure already had a Biju, so it was not a big problem.
Moreover, the Biju is also sealed into people. The most important thing is that now, with Bunpuku already so old now, the power of the Biju can't be used, so they can just temporarily abandon Shukaku and capture it again later. Now, the most important thing to do is to drag for time until the people from the other two villages came over.
After this decision was made, it was quickly implemented. Sunagakure's people were divided into ten groups and fled in different directions. After all, this is the Land of Wind. They can go wherever they go, but they still left Bunpuku here alone.
"Bunpuku, look at what your village has done. They're just leaving you here to die! And you still want to protect such a village? Just let me out, and I can save your life!"
At this moment, although Bunpuku, who was left behind, almost can't do anything, because the trashy seal from Sunagakure can be said to be abnormal, Shukaku has often be able to control Bunpuku's body.
After Bunpuku became Jinchuriki, he has been living a life of imprisonment. Gaara's life is much better. Although he was targeted by his father and the others, he still met some companions in the later period, and he did not live a prison life.
But Bunpuku is different. He has always been imprisoned. If the village need him, they will let him to go out to fight, and then locked him back when they don't need him. However, Bunpuku is also very compliant. No matter how others treat him, he always treats the village kindly.
Even Shukaku has lost his temper because of him.
"You will definitely take revenge against the village after you come out, so just forget it. I should do his best one last time, and I should not be able to hold it after this time. Although you will not completely die, but I must still apologize first!"
Bunpuku is already very old, but he will not release Shukaku. After all, once Shukaku is released, it is estimated that the first thing he would do is not to fight the enemy, but the people of Bunpuku's village.
As for whether the power of Shukaku can be resisted after the fight, it is not something that Bunpuku really care. After the fight, even if Shukaku takes control of his body, it is impossible to do anything to his village.
"Pedantic old man!"
Shukaku could only curse angrily. He really had no choice. Although he recognized Bunpuku, it did not mean that he recognized Bunpuku's submissiveness to the village. In short, he was very irritable at the moment.
It can be said that Biju are indeed very unlucky. They are always used by others. But if they wanted to something to blame, they can only blame themselves for their powerful strength. They can be used to create Jinchuriki, so there's no way humans won't use them.
Soon, Asahi had already caught up to him, and at this moment, Bunpuku has already clapping his palms, and a yellow sand rose up into the sky, directly blocking Asahi's path.
'Bunpuku? Ichibi's Jinchuriki? Rasa is really bold enough to leave their Jinchuriki behind!'
Asahi is a little speechless. He doesn't know what to say about Rasa's decision. Is he stupid? Or should he call him courageous? But Asahi thinks that it should be the former. Asahi also thinks that he can poach Shukaku.
Although Shukaku has an almost insoluble hatred for humans, Asahi still has a trump card. Sage of Six Paths. He knows those secrets, and it naturally can be useful to poach Shukaku.
Asahi estimated that Rasa left Bunpuku as cannon fodder, and Asahi was not interested in Bunpuku either. However, if he could completely defeat Bunpuku and then bring him back and asked someone to remove the seal, won't there be another Biju at that time?
As for the possibility for Shukaku escaping by himself, it is almost impossible. Just think about it. If Shukaku wants to come out, Bunpuku will not allowed it, and he will only die with Bunpuku. Therefore, unless there is external help, Shukaku will not be able to escape.
"Your opponent is me!"
After stopping Asahi, Bunpuku also realized the horror of the other party, so he knew that he might not survive this time, but he would stop Asahi even if he needed to pay it with his life.
"Bunpuku. I am not interested in you, let Shukaku in your body come out and speak!"
Asahi doesn't care about Bunpuku at all, and he only needs Shukaku.
"No way, I will not let you pass!"
As he spoke, a large amount of yellow sand surged, almost completely burying Asahi.
"Old man, you don't seem to understand what I'm saying. Go to sleep first!"
After Asahi finished speaking, he chopped Bunpuku's neck with his hand. Bunpuku didn't see how Asahi come near him before he fainted directly.
"Shukaku, come out and talk. I believe you don't want to stay in this guy's body all the time!"
After Asahi finished speaking, Bunpuku's body quickly began to be enveloped by yellow sand, and then turned into a behemoth.
Although he could come out temporarily, Shukaku could not completely break through the seal. Even Sunagakure's seal is trashy, Shukaku still couldn't break through directly, so once Bunpuku's consciousness returns, Shukaku will be sealed back again.
