Naruto: Uchiha’s Unserious Saga

Chapter 138: The Trap Unleashed



“What did you say!?” Hiruzen gritted his teeth and spoke each word slowly.

“The base camp was attacked by Sunagakure, and Danzo-sama sent a signal for help.”

Hiruzen was so concerned for his own safety in going to negotiate that he had brought along many trusted Jonin and shinobi. He had completely forgotten that the base camp could also be attacked. Every shinobi he brought with him was one less at the base camp. And he hadn't just brought along many shinobi, but the strongest ones.

It’s been too long since he went to the battlefield...

Danzo... My Danzo! Hiruzen was anxious. Don't let Danzo take any damage.

“Let’s go!” Hiruzen hurried back to the base.

Not long after he left, a pillar of fire shot up into the sky and attacked him.

At the same time, a massive wave of gold dust rushed towards the Konoha shinobi.

The many Jonin that Hiruzen had brought quickly stepped forward and performed hand seals to counter the attack. Hiruzen also used Earth Release to defend himself.

[Boom!]

"Ah!!!" Amidst the intense clash, many Konoha shinobi let out cries of pain.

Hiruzen, his face grim, looked at the enemy and gritted his teeth. “Scorch Release, Pakura and Magnet Release, Rasa!”

In front of him, Rasa stood with his arms crossed, surrounded by gold dust. Pakura had four fireballs floating around her.

Hiruzen felt cold all over. He had fallen into a trap!

“Sarutobi Hiruzen, today is the day of your death.” Rasa’s voice was calm as he gave an order. “Attack!”

"Kill!"

Behind them, a large number of missing-nin advanced. They launched a desperate charge without worrying about their own safety.

The two sides collided with each other, and in an instant, Hiruzen felt something was wrong. Although it seemed that the enemy was also advancing, at the moment of contact, they began to retreat.

[Boom!]

A big hand made of gold dust slapped down fiercely. Hiruzen dodged quickly.

Several gold dust shuriken flew towards him. The gold dust shuriken, each over three meters long, were intimidating just by their size.

After Sarutobi Hiruzen dodged them, the shuriken took the lives of several Konoha shinobi.

"The Fourth Kazekage, Rasa!" Hiruzen shouted angrily. “Are you really going to do this? Stop now and there will still be time for a peaceful solution.”

Rasa paused for a moment. He looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen in disbelief.

“Don’t be surprised, that’s Sarutobi Hiruzen.” Pakura said calmly.

“In that case, let's finish him off.” Rasa said, smiling coldly. The gold dust around him began to move.

"Hmph! Good! Rasa, this is your choice!" Hiruzen finally became enraged. He removed his outer robe, revealing his combat suit. He quickly formed hand seals.

"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Bullet!"

Without even looking, Rasa's gold dust automatically protected him.

"This..." Hiruzen frowned slightly.

“You see?” Rasa smiled. “Did you think we chose this hill for nothing?”

“There isn’t much gold dust here!” Hiruzen replied coldly.

“That’s true.” Rasa smiled. “That’s why you felt safe coming here.”

Pakura sighed. “Third Hokage, you’ve gotten old, you’ve been away from the battlefield for too long. Do you think we couldn’t bring gold dust from somewhere else?”

Hiruzen's face was gloomy. He made countless mistakes.

"I admit that I was careless!" Hiruzen bit his finger and said coldly: "But do you think you can win?"

"Summoning Technique!"

"Come out, Monkey King Enma!"

Amidst a large amount of smoke, Enma appeared. He had a fierce aura, and his expression was cold and menacing. He glanced at Rasa and Pakura, then turned to Hiruzen and sneered. “What? Have you been cornered?”

“It is obvious,” Hiruzen said. “Enma, I need your power.”

"Hmph!" Enma snorted coldly, looked at Pakura and Rasa, grinned slightly, revealing sharp fangs.

Pakura attacked first, followed by a wave of gold dust.

“Enma!”

“I know!”

The Monkey King clenched his fists and struck back at Pakura's attack.

Pakura scoffed but was surprised to see that her Scorch Release had no effect on the summoned beast.

[Bang!]

Pakura was knocked down. Enma did not chase after her, but instead transformed into the Adamantine Staff.

With a shout, Hiruzen swung his staff and destroyed the gold dust, advancing towards Rasa.

Rasa created a large number of gold dust shuriken.

[Bang! Bang! Bang!]

Hiruzen deflected the shuriken with his staff and continued to advance towards Rasa. At that moment, four fireballs spun towards Hiruzen. Frowning, he raised his staff.

[Boom!]

A large cloud of smoke appeared. Inside, Hiruzen was unharmed.

Hiruzen said quietly to Enma: "Enma, I have a bad feeling."

"What's happening?"

"Try it and you'll know!"

Hiruzen roared and charged towards Pakura.

Pakura launched several fireballs as she quickly retreated.

Rasa took advantage of that moment to attack him again from behind.

When Hiruzen attacked Rasa, Pakura intervened again.

"They..." Emma noticed it too and growled. "They're wearing you down."

Hiruzen maintained his cold gaze. But in the brief confrontation, he had already begun to pant. "It's been too long since I fought!"

Hiruzen sighed and looked around, hoping that the Konoha shinobi would end their battle quickly and come to help him.

But what he saw left him stupefied.

After so much time of fighting, both sides were still at a stalemate.

These missing-nin were cunning and avoided direct confrontation with the Konoha shinobi. Their goal was simple: just delay the enemy.

"Damn them, damn them!"

"What are we going to do?" Hiruzen was anxious.

“Why do you hesitate?” Enma’s voice came. “Use high-powered ninjutsu to finish them off. Even though you are old, you can still do it.”

"This..." Hiruzen hesitated.

[Rumble!]

At that moment, a tsunami of gold dust appeared.

A ten-meter-high tsunami of gold dust launched itself towards Hiruzen and the fighting shinobi.

The missing-nin reacted quickly and fled immediately.

This was also part of their plan. Since there was a huge difference in numbers, Rasa, a shinobi with wide-range ninjutsu, would always help them in critical moments.

"Damn it!" Hiruzen was furious and without hesitation, he made hand seals.

[Rumble!]

A huge wall of earth appeared in front of the tsunami of gold dust..

[Boom!]

Hiruzen panted and stared at Rasa.

Rasa was also panting but smiled lightly. "There are two of us, but there is only one of you."

"Scorch Release: Dragon Roar!"

Pakura, who appeared behind Hiruzen, had already completed the seal.

Several fire orbs appeared, connecting to form a gigantic fire dragon that launched itself towards Hiruzen.

"Water Release..." Hiruzen looked horrified and shouted angrily: "Water Tornado!"

The water tornado was barely able to resist the Scorch Release.

"Shadow Clone Technique!"

Four clones of Hiruzen appeared.

Five Hiruzen began to make seals at the same time.

"Fire Release..."

"Earth Release..."

"Water Release..."

"Lightning Release..."

"Wind Release..."

Five different base-elemental attacks merged into one.

Pakura was terrified. Ever since her confrontation with Hiruzen had begun, she had always looked down on him.

Even though Funan reminded her many times that this old man was not simple, she was already filled with disappointment after facing him.

Under the force of this ninjutsu, Pakura's Scorch Release was instantly destroyed.

If it weren't for Rasa's quick intervention, creating several shields of gold dust, Pakura would have been seriously injured.

Still, both were injured.

"Retreat!"

Rasa shouted and, taking Pakura, they quickly moved away from the battlefield. With their retreat, the missing-nin also began to flee.

"Hokage-sama!"

A Konoha shinobi excitedly approached Hiruzen, but was shocked to see Hiruzen's pale face, his eyes sunken, barely holding on to his staff to keep from falling.

"Let's go back!" Hiruzen gritted his teeth and said: "This time, Suna must give us an explanation."

He looked at the bodies of the fallen Konoha shinobi, his heart aching deeply. These were all the elites under his command.

"Yes!"

The Konoha shinobi responded loudly and, gathering the others, quickly returned to the Konoha camp.

But to their surprise, although the camp showed signs of battle, there were no casualties.

"Danzo, I want an explanation!" Hiruzen was so enraged that he almost went mad.

Explanation? Danzo said angrily: “What explanation? I want you to give me an explanation?”

“What do you mean?”

“I sent you a signal, why didn’t you reply? Do you know that I sent people to find you, and all the people I sent died!”

Hiruzen was silent for a moment.

He understood that Danzo was not really angry, he wanted to tell himself that he also paid, and he also sacrificed many people.

Hiruzen sat down on a chair, took out his pipe and began to smoke.

"We've all fallen into a trap, haven't we?"

Danzo looked at Hiruzen in silence.

Hiruzen said calmly: "I have lost more than sixty people, including eight Jonin, three sensory ninja, and all the shinobi of the Hyuga Clan."

Danzo clenched his fists.

This time, the shinobi of the Hyuga clan were sacrificed. With the hatred of Hyuga Hiashi towards them, they will definitely make trouble.

Danzo's expression was cold, and the murderous intent in his eyes could scare people to death.

A mere Hyuga dared to be so presumptuous.

This must not go on.

At this moment, Danzo made up his mind.

"What about you?"

"More than 200 people died!" Danzo said coldly: "However, most of them are from the Mitokado and Utatane clans."

"Haha!" Hiruzen chuckled a few times, but his laughter was full of helplessness and anger.

"Sunagakure!!!" Hiruzen gritted his teeth.
