The Hokage, having traveled here, of course he'd unify the ninja world!

Chapter 656 The Rampaging Shukaku

This sudden question was like a thunderclap in the ears of the hydrangea.

"Me...me!?"

Ziyanghua's eyes widened, her face filled with astonishment, as if she couldn't believe what she was hearing.

Her mouth was wide open, big enough to fit an egg.

It was like being hit by a pie falling from the sky.

Over the past few years, it has been thanks to Minato's mastery of the Flying Thunder God Technique.

This caused other ninja villages to always look down on Konoha and dare not easily cross the line.

Now that she has learned that she may also have the opportunity to learn this skill, the joy in Ziyanghua's heart is beyond words.

Seeing the hydrangea's overjoyed expression, Qianyao nodded slightly again, giving an affirmative answer:

“That’s right. In a few days, I will lift the restrictions on your learning of the Flying Thunder God Technique and grant you the relevant permissions.”

"I will arrange for Minato and his guards to train you for a period of time. As for whether you can eventually learn it, that depends on your own ability and effort."

Hearing this, Hydrangea was overjoyed. A radiant smile bloomed on her face, and she quickly said gratefully:

"Thank you, Chief! Don't worry, I will definitely study with all my might!"

Qianyao waved his hand casually, indicating that it was not a big deal and he was not particularly concerned about it.

Even during the meal, Chiyo continued to ponder the matter of reforming the way ninjutsu is learned.

It's important to know that learning ninjutsu is no easy feat in the entire ninja world.

There is a fairly high barrier to entry, and that barrier is indeed quite high.

If you are not a member of one of the five great ninja villages, then in other regions there are not even institutions like ninja academies that specialize in teaching ninjutsu.

Normally, people can only pass on ninjutsu knowledge through the traditional model of older ninjas leading the new generation of ninjas.

In this process, how much skill a learner acquires depends entirely on whether the instructor is dedicated to imparting knowledge.

In addition, another key factor is that not everyone is qualified to obtain and master the methods of chakra training.

Even if one is fortunate enough to obtain the relevant secret manual, it still requires a large amount of life energy to successfully extract chakra.

For ordinary people who are worried about food and clothing every day, it is already very difficult to maintain a basic livelihood, so where would they have the spare time and energy to devote to cultivation?

However, with the significant improvement in the overall living standards of the people in the Land of Fire, Chiyo has begun to think about how to cultivate more outstanding ninja talents.

After all, even if these ninjas don't participate in intense battles in the future, their special skills will likely still play a significant role in daily life.

Therefore, in addition to regular skills training schools, an adult ninja school also needs to be built.

……

Sunagakure, a village nestled in the desert, is currently shrouded in panic and chaos.

The quiet atmosphere inside the Fengying Building was instantly shattered.

With a loud "bang," the door was suddenly kicked open.

Yura rushed in anxiously, staggering and nearly falling to the ground.

Before he could even regain his footing, he shouted impatiently, "Lord Kazekage, something terrible has happened! Rasa... he's gone berserk again!"

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Cang, who was sitting at the table, suddenly stood up as if he had been electrocuted.

At this moment, Ye Cang's face was ashen, as if water could drip from it. Her beautiful eyebrows were tightly furrowed together, forming a deep "川" (river) shape.

He roared, "This useless failure!"

At the same time, a heart-wrenching scream of pain, like the cry of a night owl, echoed for a long time in the silent desert.

Immediately afterwards, a sharp, piercing laugh echoed through the sky:

"Hahaha, I'm back again!"

With this burst of wild laughter, the earth began to tremble violently.

"Boom boom boom!"

A series of deafening roars rose and fell, one after another, without end.

Numerous buildings collapsed under the impact of the terrifying force, raising clouds of dust.

In an instant, many houses in Sunagakure were reduced to ruins.

Faced with such a tragic scene, the villagers of Sunagakure were terrified. They cursed and fled in all directions.

Someone shouted, "Run! Rasa has gone berserk again!"

Some people roared angrily, "Damn Rasa!"

Some even went so far as to hurl insults: "What a piece of trash! He clearly can't be a Jinchūriki, yet he insists on showing off!"

Some people sighed with worry:

"I wonder how many innocent people will be killed this time!"

The village was filled with the sounds of ghosts wailing and wolves howling, and the scene was chaotic.

The culprit behind all this disaster is none other than Shukaku.

His mind was already extremely unstable, and now that it was sealed away, whenever it broke free and appeared in the world, it would go on a rampage and destroy everything around it.

Waves of sand surged and crashed against the surrounding houses.

A large number of houses and buildings were demolished to pieces, and many villagers fled in disarray.

Inside the Kazekage office, Yecang was methodically directing the manpower.

Her gaze was sharp, and her expression serious.

"Immediately evacuate all villagers in the surrounding area to a safe zone!"

"The sealing team quickly prepared the sealing tools and advanced in multiple batches."

"Remember, maintain close cooperation and a high level of vigilance!"

Numerous Sand Village ninjas accepted the order and surged out of the office like a tide to carry out their respective tasks.

Yekura herself led a large number of well-trained ANBU members to the outside.

At this point, the situation had become extremely critical. Rasa's consciousness had long since fallen into a deep sleep, and he was unable to control the situation.

Shukaku seized the opportunity to gain the upper hand, its massive body tightly enveloping Rasa, like an unshakeable mountain.

Shukaku's body swelled up and up, reaching a height of over ten meters in the blink of an eye, and it continued to absorb sand from the ground, causing its size to continue to increase.

Its hideous face had a pair of blood-red eyes that gleamed with ferocity, and it emitted a chilling, shrill laugh.

"Hahaha! Die, all of you!"

—Practice with blank rounds!

With this roar, Shukaku opened its massive maw, and an incredibly powerful stream of air rapidly gathered and compressed within its mouth, eventually forming a huge sphere of air.

Then, it suddenly raised one of its thick front paws and slapped its round belly hard.

In an instant, the air cannonball containing terrifying energy shot out like lightning, carrying a devastating force towards Sunagakure.

A deafening roar erupted, shaking the entire earth.

The houses in Sunagakure Village were no match for this violent force; they collapsed instantly, raising clouds of dust.

However, the Sand Village ninjas did not back down in the face of such a fierce attack.

They quickly unleashed various ninjutsu techniques to counterattack.
