He abruptly stood up and growled at Maki behind him, "Maki! Go and control Gaara immediately! We can't let him go completely berserk here!"
"Yes, Lord Kazekage!"
Maki understood immediately and led several Sand Village Jonin to the sidelines.
And at the very moment this chaos erupted!
Gaara's massive, sand-like right arm suddenly rose and pointed at Sasuke, who had just stood up!
The sand on his arm detached as if it were alive, transforming into long, incredibly fast whips of sand that whistled through the air.
In an instant, it traversed space and wrapped around Sasuke's limbs and neck!
One of the thickest sand whips coiled around Sasuke's right arm, which he had just used Chidori, like a venomous snake.
And it began to tighten and strangle him frantically! Its intention was to tear him apart completely!
"Sasuke!" Naruto and Sakura screamed in disbelief!
Sasuke felt an unimaginable pain and a powerful binding force coming from his right arm!
The bones groaned in unbearable pain!
Even worse, the sand whip was imbued with Shukaku's violent chakra, which was frantically eroding his body and mind!
A glint of madness flashed in Sasuke's eyes!
He endured the excruciating pain in his right arm, and the violent lightning chakra once again gathered wildly in his left palm!
"Chidori—!!!"
Sizzle—!!!
Another blinding blue-white lightning bolt erupted! Sasuke fiercely thrust the Chidori he had condensed in his left hand into the sand whip wrapped around his right arm!
boom--! ! !
The violent lightning chakra clashed and exploded with Shukaku's sand chakra!
The sand whip was blown off!
Taking advantage of the moment, Sasuke yanked back his bloodied, almost numb right arm and used the momentum to retreat rapidly!
Although he had broken free of his restraints, Sasuke's right arm was badly injured, with blood flowing down his arm.
He was breathing heavily, the Chidori in his left hand slowly dissipating, and he stared warily at Gaara, who was in half-tailed beast form and looked like a demon god descending to earth.
Meanwhile, this sudden and terrifying event, far exceeding the level of a low-level ninja, was like a spark thrown into a pot of oil, completely igniting a hidden conspiracy!
"Protect Daimyo!"
"There is an enemy invasion!"
"Barrier Team! Activate the highest level of defensive barrier immediately!"
In the audience, there were several shrill screams and explosions.
The elite Sand Village and Sound Village, disguised as ordinary spectators, suddenly launched an attack!
Kunai, explosive tags, and poisonous smoke instantly raged through the crowd!
Screams, cries, and curses instantly drowned out the noise of the battle!
The entire martial arts altar descended into utter chaos!
On the high platform, the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, suddenly stood up, his gaze like lightning, instantly locking onto the location of the "Kazekage" below.
I saw the undisguised cruelty and mockery in the other person's eyes!
Orochimaru... it really was you!
The third generation's voice was filled with icy rage.
He had considered Orochimaru infiltrating Konoha, but he never expected Orochimaru to disguise himself as the Kazekage.
Seeing that the disguise was pointless, Orochimaru simply cut up the mask: "Sarutobi-sensei recognized me so quickly? How boring!"
The Third Hokage said coldly, "What did you do to Lord Kazekage?"
Orochimaru smiled sinisterly, "I didn't do anything, I just had him assist with my plan."
Hearing the rioting below, the Third Hokage realized he could wait no longer and immediately waved his hand, ordering: "All Anbu! Proceed according to plan! Protect the civilians! Suppress the rebellion!"
Countless Konoha ANBU emerged from the shadows and pounced on the troublesome enemies!
The barrier teams that had been set up throughout the arena began to circulate their chakra at full power, and a huge transparent barrier light screen began to slowly rise from the edge!
In the center of the arena, Gaara, in his half-tailed beast form, became even more ferocious under the stimulation of bloodshed and chaos!
He roared even more terrifyingly, his eyes fixed on the injured Sasuke below, and... the entire Hidden Leaf Village!
The Konoha Crush Plan has officially begun!
The prelude to Konoha's collapse, amidst the clash of thunder and sandstorms, accompanied by bloodshed and chaos, was abruptly unveiled!
Chapter 111 Konoha's Collapse Plan
Although the third generation was well-prepared to deal with the enemy, the enemy's preparations were even more comprehensive.
There are both imposters hiding in the crowd and attackers launching frontal assaults.
The combined attack from within and without plunged Konoha into the flames of war.
The shrill, piercing whistle did not come from the stadium, but rather rang out simultaneously from all directions of the village!
Like countless cold steel needles, they instantly pierced the last remaining echoes of the battle's clamor within the Chunin Exams venue.
It also shattered the relaxed nerves of the Konoha villagers who had been enjoying the festive atmosphere.
Then, not just one sound, but countless sounds!
The deafening roar of the explosion, like the howl of a hellish beast, erupted from the heart of the village—
Bustling commercial streets, quiet residential areas, heavily guarded administrative centers, and even the vicinity of hospitals symbolizing medical hope—
A chain reaction erupted!
The earth trembled violently with painful groans, as if it were about to be torn apart by this sudden wave of destruction.
The people in the stands were holding their breath or exclaiming in surprise at Sasuke's thunderous attack that pierced through the sand wall in the arena below.
The next second, he was knocked to the ground by this devastating news from his home.
A terrified scream instantly drowned out all other sounds, merging into a chaotic and desperate wave that crashed against the barrier of the martial arts altar.
"Enemy attack! It's an enemy attack!"
"Protect the villagers! Evacuate! Evacuate now!"
"Where are the barrier squad and the defense squad?! Reinforce the outer walls!"
The reaction of Konoha's Anbu and guard ninjas was remarkably swift.
They are the roots of the giant tree Konoha, deeply embedded in the shadows.
Before the smoke and dust from the explosion reached their highest point, they shot out from every corner like arrows.
Black figures weaved and darted above the heads of the chaotic, fleeing crowd.
The cold glint of kunai and shuriken traced trails of death amidst the billowing dust and smoke.
The dull thud of flesh colliding, the tearing sound of blades piercing flesh, the booming sound of ninjutsu exploding.
Amidst the cries of civilians, the screams of children, and the deafening roar of collapsing buildings, a hellish prelude titled "Collapse" was composed.
Meanwhile, the formidable outer walls that Konoha Village was so proud of.
At this moment, it has become a huge prison, and also the first bloody line of defense.
Accompanied by a chilling hiss and a muffled, thunderous tremor, several enormous, suffocating shadows rose from the ground!
That was a giant python summoned by the Sound Ninja Summoning Technique.
Each one was so thick that it could flatten an entire street.
Covered in cold, hard scales that shimmered with a metallic sheen, his vertical pupils held only a pure desire for destruction.
They raised their ferocious heads, ignoring the dense barrage of kunai and explosive tags fired by the ninja guards on the city wall, and casually swept their massive snake tails with immense force!
Rumble——!
The walls that Konoha was so proud of collapsed like a child's building blocks.
The rubble and bricks rained down like a storm, instantly burying several guard ninjas below who were unable to dodge in time.
The giant snake coiled at the breach became a terrifying roadblock, preventing reinforcements from reaching the survivors and devouring them.
The snake's foul-smelling tongue flickered, dripping corrosive venom.
"Stop them! Don't let them get into the inner circle!"
A squad leader in the shadows roared at the top of his lungs.
His eyes, hidden beneath the mask, were bloodshot. He had watched as the team members he had personally trained were crushed by the giant snake, turning into a mangled mess of flesh and blood.
His hands flew, forming hand seals so fast that only afterimages remained.
"Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet!"
A huge, orange-red fireball roared as it slammed into the head of one of the giant snakes and exploded with a deafening roar!
The flames blasted his head back slightly, leaving large patches of charred black on his hard scales, and a pungent smell of burning filled the air.
However, the giant snake only let out an even angrier hiss.
Those cold, vertical pupils gleamed even more fiercely, and his massive body writhed even more violently.
The thick snake tail lashed out with a whooshing sound as it lashed out at a two-story house next to it!
Snap! Boom—!
The houses were snapped in half as if made of paper, and the upper part collapsed in the smoke and dust.
A bloodcurdling scream erupted from inside, only to be swallowed up by the sound of bricks and rubble burying them.
More Konoha ninjas, like moths to a flame, fearlessly rushed forward.
