Naruto: Releasing Chakra Limits at the Start

Chapter 308 Pain

Yoru said calmly, "A lot has happened in the ninja world these past few months."

"Three-tailed Fox, you're really lucky."

Yoru's words left the Three-Tails completely bewildered.

"What do you mean by that?" Sanwei asked, looking puzzled.

Ye Yu smiled but offered no explanation.

"I'm going back. I've been away long enough. If I don't go back soon, the village will be wiped out."

After saying that, Ye Yu disappeared on its back without paying any attention to the three-tailed creature.

Sanwei was completely bewildered, but Yeyu had always been like this, so he didn't pay any attention and sank to the bottom of the lake.

By this time, Konoha had been reduced to ruins.

During Yoru's absence, many changes occurred in Konoha.

Sasuke killed Itachi Uchiha and learned the truth about the annihilation of the Uchiha clan.

This had a huge impact on him.

This made Sasuke question whether what he had done before was right.

So even after killing Itachi Uchiha, and even though his Sharingan was upgraded to the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, it still didn't bring him any joy.

He didn't return to Konoha Village and stayed outside for a long time.

He wanted to find Ye Yu and ask him what to do and what choices to make, but he searched the ninja world for a long time and still couldn't find Ye Yu.

During this period, he was in a state of great distress and wandered around the ninja world. In other words, during these few months, the two strongest people in Konoha Village disappeared at the same time and could not be found.

It was precisely because Yoru and Sasuke were not there that Konoha Village suffered the same fate as in the original story.

It was directly destroyed by Pain's Super Shinra Tensei.

As it turned out, Yoru's changes to many things led to Konoha's unprecedented strength, but also caused significant changes to Akatsuki's actions.

Orochimaru was not killed by Sasuke. He was stronger than he was at this point in the original story. He even perfected the Impure World Reincarnation technique and was able to control the Impure World Reincarnated Hashirama Senju with the sealing technique given to him by Obito Uchiha.

With Yoru and Sasuke both gone from the village, Naruto, Sakura, and Tsunade alone were not enough to ensure Konoha's safety.

Moreover, Nagato brought several Akatsuki members with him during this attack on Konoha, who were originally supposed to die in the original story.

For example, Deidara, in the original work, had already been killed by Sasuke by this time.

However, this time he came to Konoha with Kisame Hoshigaki and Kakuzu. With their help, although Naruto learned the Sage Mode of Mount Myōboku and even entered full Tailed Beast Transformation, he still couldn't defeat Pain.

Jiraiya's death remains unchanged; even the cause and manner of his death are exactly the same as in the original story.

If only Sasuke had been there when Pain invaded Konoha, things wouldn't have turned out this way.

At this point, Sasuke had upgraded his Sharingan to the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, and he could use Urashiki Otsutsuki's power for up to ten minutes.

In just ten minutes, Sasuke's strength far surpassed Pain's.

Kakuzu, Deidara, and Kisame Hoshigaki are all just small fry to him.

However, he did not return to Konoha Village because of the truth about the Uchiha clan.

It's actually better than in the original story. Sasuke just didn't come back; he wanted to find Yoru.

If Sasuke had the power he has now in the original story, he would have already taken revenge on Konoha.

But he can't do that now. He knows that the Uchiha clan's affairs have nothing to do with the rest of Konoha. At most, he can only take revenge on Danzo and the two Hokage advisors.

However, these three people were all high-ranking members of Konoha Village, and Sasuke knew very well that if he harmed them, he would become a rogue ninja.

In the past, he certainly wouldn't have cared.

But now there are too many people in Konoha Village that he cares about.

He wanted to know what Ye Yu thought.

He believed that Ye Yu would make a decision that would satisfy him.

He also believed that Ye Yu could resolve the matter.

At this moment, Konoha Village had long since become a ruin, the village had become a huge crater, and most of the villagers were dead.

Tsunade lay covered in blood in the ruins, with a live slug tending to her wounds beside her.

Beside her, Sakura lay covered in blood amidst the ruins. Unlike in the original story, Sakura and Tsunade participated in and cooperated throughout the entire battle.

However, due to the obstacles posed by Deidara, Kakuzu, and Kisame Hoshigaki, they suffered a crushing defeat.

Kakashi is dead; his body lies in the ruins.

Naruto lay dying in the middle of the crater.

Even after entering Sage Mode and fully transforming into a tailed beast, he still couldn't defeat Pain.

The toads of Mount Myoboku were also lying on the ground, barely alive.

If things continue like this, Konoha will become history in the ninja world.

Tsunade lay on the ground, looking at the sky, muttering to herself, "Yoha, Sasuke, where are you?"

At this moment, more than ever, Tsunade wanted Yoru and Sasuke to stay in Konoha.

Tsunade is currently unaware that Sasuke already knows the truth about the Uchiha clan's annihilation.

Of course, she didn't know that either.

She still thinks Sasuke is the same Sasuke she used to be.

Sakura, with tears streaming down her face, murmured to herself, "Sasuke, Yoru, please don't come back."

Unlike Tsunade, she knew Pain was too powerful and didn't want Sasuke and Yoru to come back to their deaths.

Even the toads of Mount Myōboku were no match for Pain, and even Naruto, who had fully transformed into a tailed beast and mastered Sage Mode, was no match for him.

How much stronger is Sasuke than Naruto?

Sakura wasn't quite aware of the gap between Sasuke and Naruto at that moment.

After all, Sasuke protected her very well.

Sasuke usually handles dangerous enemies, and because of his personality, he doesn't like to talk about his strength in front of Sakura. Apart from often using Yoru's strength to motivate himself, Sasuke rarely mentions comparing his strength with others.

Therefore, Sakura didn't know how much stronger Sasuke was than Naruto.

Because Pain's Shinra Tensei was too powerful, Sakura hoped that Sasuke would not return, and also hoped that Yoru would not return.

Although Sakura felt that Yoru was probably no worse than Pain, what if Yoru was no match for Pain? Wouldn't Konoha be completely doomed?

If Sasuke, whose mind was completely focused on finding Yoru, knew Sakura's current state...

I'm afraid Payne will die a terrible death.

Although he began to question Konoha because of the truth about the Uchiha clan's annihilation, Sakura was absolutely his Achilles' heel; anyone who touched her would die.

Pain, the Deva Path, stood before Tsunade at that moment.

The live slug looked at Pain warily.

Pain didn't attack Tsunade, but said coldly, "You feel it now, don't you? This is the pain we endure, a pain you couldn't comprehend before."

Tsunade glanced at Pain.

no answer.
