Chapter 92: You Can’t Become the Amegakure’s Leader
“Interesting.”
Rasa, the Fourth Kazekage, watched Uehara and exclaimed, “He’s worthy of being the genius ninja of the Amegakure. That battle earlier has given you the right to succeed Hanzo’s position…”
“What do you mean?”
Uehara glanced at Rasa speechlessly. He couldn’t help but sneered and said, “Oi Kazekage, do you even know my name?”
“…”.
Rasa was very stingy in praising his enemy.
Facing a genius ninja Uehara Naraku, his praise was not without calculation.
Because Rasa was very aware of the inheritance system of a Ninja Village, it was often a hereditary system and not master-disciple inheritance like the Samurai in the Country of Iron.
Uehara did not wear the unique protective mask of Hanzo’s clan, so he was obviously not a member and could not get the position of Amegakure’s leader.
As long as Uehara resented that he was not qualified to inherit the Amegakure, Rasa could tempt Uehara into defecting to the Sunagakure.
After all, he had shown usable value.
How could being an ordinary ninja in a small country ninja village compare to being part of the five big ninja villages?
The problem was that Rasa didn’t know that Hanzo was dead, let alone Uehara’s recent worries about Nagato and Konan designating him as the sole heir of the Amegakure!
Uehara was worried about this kind of thing!
And even if he did defect, he would not pick Sunagakure. Which ninja would be willing to be part of a team with a ninja who betrayed his village, yet surrendered faster than anyone else?
“I haven’t heard your name. Isn’t it because Your Excellency killed our village’s Anbu too efficiently?”
Rasa’s face gradually turned cold. He no longer concealed his coveting of Uehara and said bluntly, “I’ll just say it, a genius ninja like you won’t live long in the Amegakure. Hanzo, who wants to maintain his power, would be your end!”
“…”
Uehara couldn’t help but glance at Rasa when he heard this. The Fourth Kazekage’s vision was sharp, and he could see Hanzo’s essence.
However, as an Ame Ninja, Uehara certainly could not allow others to insult Hanzo. This was an Ame Ninja’s creed!
Uehara looked at the Fourth Kazekage, his face showing anger, “How dare you insult Hanzo-sama!”
“He truly is such a person!”
Rasa waved his hand as if lecturing an immature child and said coldly, “If I sign a five-year peace agreement with Amegakure, in return for killing you, Hanzo would definitely not be merciful!”
After he finished speaking, Rasa added, “Don’t reject me, you should know the Sunagakure is far more important in Hanzo’s heart than an ordinary ninja.”
The Fourth Kazekage was right.?????????ѵ??. ?oｍ
If the death of one person could be exchanged for the five-year peace agreement with the Sunagakure, Hanzo would not hesitate. He may even direct someone to send that person’s head to the Fourth Kazekage’s table.
It was a pity that the one he faced now was Uehara.
The man who killed Hanzo.
The current Uehara had no problem walking sideways in Amegakure.
The Fourth Kazekage looked at Uehara’s face and revealed his foxtail, “Leave this weak country and join Sunagakure! Only Sunagakure can accommodate your talents, and I’ll provide you with enough resources and money!”
“…Just you?”
Uehara showed a hint of sarcasm on his face.
Who was the Fourth Kazekage Rasa?
This guy was the one who betrayed Pakura to the Kirigakure in exchange for peace!
Uehara chuckled slightly, and a purple chakra broadsword floated beside him.”As long as I manage to kill you now, you surely can’t make Hanzo-sama betray me, right?”
“Do you not understand what I mean?”
Rasa frowned again, his face was getting ugly, and said, “Even without me, sooner or later, Hanzo will kill you! Amegakure is not a place for geniuses!”
“No!”
Uehara looked at Rasa mockingly, stretched out his hand to grasp the purple broadsword, and said every word, “Hanzo-sama will believe in my loyalty…”
“…”
Rasa looked at Uehara’s movements, cursing a little in his heart.
d.a.m.n, this kid was crazy!
No, this kid was mentally r.e.t.a.r.ded!
“Wait until I catch you, I’ll find a way to get what I want!”
Rasa manipulated the gold dust on the ground, coldly declaring, “Idiot, you just finished a fight with Shukaku. Your chakra and physical strength should be running out.”
“How about… you guess it?”
Uehara’s figure disappeared!
The purple Chakra Broadsword drew an arc in his hand and slammed into the Fourth Kazekage in front of him!
A ball of gold dust quickly intercepted Uehara’s attack.
Compared to the sand controlled by Gaara, the gold dust controlled by Rasa was heavier and more robust in defense.
An overwhelming amount of gold dust rushed toward Uehara!
Whether it was attack, defense, or support, magnetic gold dust had an unparalleled advantage in battle. This was also the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa’s source of confidence.
“It’s really flexible!”
Uehara dodged one of gold dust’s attacks only to see a sky full of gold dust as it scattered and surrounded him.
Uehara had no time to escape, so he could only helplessly wave the Chakra Broadsword in his hand and smash the strands of dust!
However, no matter how Uehara disperses the gold dust, they would eventually be manipulated by Rasa’s Chakra to attack him again.
Rasa stood proudly on the golden sand mat. He looked at Uehara, who was evading from left to right, “Boy, you can’t escape the shackles of the gold dust, just surrender!”
Rasa was close to winning.
He was the Fourth Kazekage of Sunagakure, and he had inherited his magnet release from the Third Kazekage. How could he not defeat a teenaged boy?
“Secret Art · Redmist Wave!”
Uehara glanced at Rasa before a cloud of smoke suddenly appeared around him, hiding his figure, forcing the gold dust to lose its target.
The chakra that Uehara consumed was also quickly filling up.
“Thank you, Kazekage-dono, for talking to me just now…”
Uehara’s gaze stopped on his skill panel. Whether it was the Moment of Sacred Judgement or Howl of Raging Waves, all of his skills had become bright and could be used again.
If you encounter a difficult enemy, you should chat with them first.
There’s always no harm in speaking a few words in this ninja world.
“Did you hide in the smoke?”
Rasa’s eyes flashed with doubts. The smoke was surrounded by gold dust, but he could not find Uehara’s location.
Instantly, Rasa discovered the nature of the smoke. The smoke array released by Uehara was even more exquisite than the Kirigakure no Jutsu (Hiding in Mist Technique). It was able to hide its user’s position perfectly.
“Huh, then I’ll just make the gold dust surround all of the smoke!”
Gold dust quickly gathered around the smoke, forming a golden sphere under Rasa’s manipulation.
Suddenly.
A beam of purple energy rays penetrated the dust!
It cuts the golden sphere into pieces!
Rasa was caught off guard, letting the purple energy ray sweep across his body. A burning sensation appeared in the area touched by the energy rays.
At this moment, a bad premonition appeared in Rasa’s mind.
