“It’s about time to end this,” Pain said, looking at the eyes of the Gedo Statue, where pupils had begun to appear.
Gaara was also starting to lose consciousness.
Although he hadn’t known what was going on from the very beginning, he had at least been able to feel Pain, but now, he couldn’t even feel that anymore.
The Gedo Statue drained the last drop of Gaara’s chakra.
The pupils fully manifested within its eyes, and Gaara slumped to the ground, already a dead man.
“It ended up taking three days and three nights after all,” Deidara said, lowering his hands from the seal.
“It’s like this every time.
It’s really annoying,” Kisame said, also lowering his hands.
“Ah… my shoulders are about to stiffen up,” Hidan said, kneading his own shoulders.
“Good work, everyone,” Pain said, looking at them symbolically.
A moment later, Guy and the others finally landed in front of the cave where they were located.
A giant boulder blocked the cave entrance, with a “Forbidden” seal pasted on it.
“This is it,” Guy said, looking at the boulder.
“Gaara is right behind this rock,” Pakkun nodded and said.
“Looks like a barrier,” Guy said, walking forward.
“What should we do?” Tenten asked.
“Let’s charge in!” Rock Lee shouted to Guy.
“No.” Guy shook his head and turned around.
Just then, Kakashi and his group arrived.
“You’re really slow, Kakashi.”
“We ran into a bit of trouble on the way,” Kakashi said as he stood up.
“Naruto!
Sakura!” Rock Lee was very happy to see the two of them.
“Kakashi, you don’t mean to say that I was the troublesome matter, do you?” Chiyo said, glancing at Kakashi.
“Everyone!” Naruto gave a thumbs-up and shouted to Guy and the others.
“You all arrived a step ahead of us,” Sakura said as she and the others walked up to Guy’s group.
“Who is this granny?” Tenten asked, looking at Chiyo.
She probably wasn’t from Konoha.
“This is the Advisor of Sunagakure, Granny Chiyo,” Sakura introduced Chiyo to everyone.
“Please take care of me,” Chiyo said.
She looked quite old, but she was still cheerful and optimistic, making a peace sign and smiling.
“Then let’s get to work, Kakashi,” Guy said, looking at Kakashi.
“Hmm.” Kakashi nodded, and everyone looked at the rock behind them.
“Then let’s start.
Neji, first take a look at the situation inside,” Guy said to Neji.
Neji nodded and used his Byakugan to investigate the inside.
“It seems to be a fairly large cave, but… I can’t see very clearly.
I can’t determine the exact situation inside.
There seem to be several people.”
“Neji, what about Gaara?
How is Gaara?” Naruto shouted to Neji.
“Wait a second, I’m looking,” Neji said.
He searched all over the cave for Gaara and then saw Gaara lying on the ground.
“Neji!” Naruto shouted anxiously.
“Don’t rush me,” Neji said to Naruto, then continued to observe the situation inside the cave, seeing the eyes of the Gedo Statue slowly close.
“What… that is…”
“What’s wrong?
What exactly is inside, Neji!” Naruto asked, shaking Neji’s body anxiously.
“Let go of me,” Neji said to Naruto, and Naruto let go of Neji’s arm.
“What did you see, Neji?” Sakura asked.
“I can’t put it into words,” Neji said with his head lowered, recalling the massive thing he had just seen.
“That means we just have to confirm it with our own eyes,” Rock Lee said, looking at the rock.
“Then things are simple.” Guy patted Rock Lee on the shoulder, rolled a long distance away, then charged forward fiercely and punched the rock.
The result was that the rock was completely unharmed.
“A barrier, huh…”
“It’s getting lively outside,” Pain said, feeling the disturbance in the barrier.
“Looks like reinforcements have arrived,” Kisame said, crossing his arms.
“Whose reinforcements?
Is it that group that Brother Kisame stalled?
Or…” Deidara asked.
“This is… so they’ve all arrived,” Zetsu said after investigating the situation outside.
“They arrived at the same time by coincidence, but… what a pity, they’re a little too late.”
“I heard there’s another Jinchuriki… Hehehe, don’t blame me, Itachi.” Sasori laughed from the side.
He apologized to Itachi because he was going to snatch Itachi’s mission target.
Outside, Guy walked back to the group helplessly.
“What should we do?” Rock Lee asked, seeing that Guy’s attack had no effect.
“First, we must dispel this barrier, Lee,” Guy said, looking at Rock Lee.
“How do we dispel it?” Tenten asked.
“We need to figure out what kind of barrier this is first,” Sakura said, looking at the rock.
“Hmm.” Guy nodded, then turned to look at the rock.
“Then, first we must determine the type of this barrier, right, Kakashi?”
“What do you think it is?” Chiyo said, standing next to Kakashi.
“It’s probably the Five-Seal Barrier,” Kakashi said.
“I agree,” Chiyo nodded.
“Five-Seal Barrier?” Naruto looked at them, puzzled.
“The Five-Seal Barrier is a barrier formed by pasting tags with the ‘Forbidden’ character in five surrounding locations.
Besides the ‘Forbidden’ tag in front of us, there are tags in four other places.
We must remove the tags from all five locations simultaneously to dispel this barrier,” Kakashi explained to them.
“It must be done simultaneously?” Sakura asked, looking at Kakashi.
“That’s right.
If we can’t remove all five at once, the barrier cannot be broken.
This is the first one,” Kakashi nodded and said.
At this moment, the two Shins also converged.
“How about your side?” Shin No.
1 asked Shin No.
2.
“I learned an incredible ninjutsu—the Eight Gates!” Shin No.
2 said excitedly.
“Really!” Shin No.
1 also shouted happily.
Mastering the Eight Gates was truly thrilling.
“What about your side?”
“I learned Chidori and Rasengan, but these aren’t the most important things.
The most important thing is that I learned a perfect technique for acting cool from Lord Itachi.
Just thinking about acting cool using Lord Itachi’s lines later makes me a little excited!”
“The original body should be very happy about this too!” Both Shins gave a thumbs-up and smiled.
“Other than this, there are four more,” Guy said, looking up at the paper tag.
“Then where are they, the other four tags?” Naruto asked, looking at Kakashi.
Kakashi shook his head, then looked at Neji.
“Neji.”
“Understood.” Neji nodded and activated his Byakugan, starting to search for the surrounding paper tags.
After searching in a circle, Neji discovered the locations of these tags.
“Found them.”
“Neji, where are they?” Naruto asked hurriedly.
“The second one is on a rock about five hundred meters to the northeast of here.
The third one is on a tree trunk by the riverbank, three hundred and fifty meters to the south-southeast.
The fourth one is on a cliff wall about six hundred and fifty meters to the northwest.
The last one is in the woods, less than eight hundred meters to the southwest.” Neji said, looking around as he spoke.
