Pakura, the leader of Sunagakure’s Anbu Squad had just returned to the village after completing a task and was now on her way to the Kazekage office. However, before she could enter, the gate of the Kazekage Office opened, and Rasa walked out hurriedly and almost collided with Pakura.

Seeing the look on the Kazekage’s face, Pakura immediately understood that some kind of emergency situation has arisen, and the first thing she could think that would make Kazekage so much panicked was obvious, “Gaara lost control?”

Rasa nodded with a disappointed expression.

This test was supposed to determine how much control Gaara has over his sand and Ichibi’s power… but it seems that everything was useless, Gaara failed the test… and it appears that he has even gone berserk…

At this time, Chiyo and Ebizo of the Suna elder Council also rushed over.

Everybody could feel the violent and raging Chakra of Ichibi, and worried about the village’s safety Chiyo said to Rasa, “Ichibi must not be allowed to go on a rampage… We are not Konoha, we can not recover from such a wound as Konoha did…”

Rasa nodded and started running towards Gaara.

Chiyo, Ebizo, Pakura, and other Anbu shinobi obviously followed.

Because of their combat style, Chiyo and Ebizo are not suitable to suppress a Bijuu class monster.

Even someone as strong as Chiyo is helpless in the face of a Bijuu, she can very well protect herself but can not fight and suppress a Bijuu.

Pakura is not so helpless anymore, she has tried to counter this weakness of hers in the past few years, after all, the encounter with Moryo the demon did give her insights on her weaknesses, and she has worked her butt off to eliminate this weakness. But it is hard to tell if she will be able to suppress Ichibi in its home environment.

So, the Kazekage Rasa is obviously the best choice, in the entire Sunagakure, he is the only one who can successfully suppress Ichibi using his Magnet Release.

While running towards Gaara, Kazekage kept the use of his ‘Third Eye’, but it was soon noticed by something and was repeatedly destroyed by emerging sand. Rasa would control Gold Sand to create a new eye, but it would be destroyed within a second by Sand.

Realizing this, Rasa’s expression only turned gloomier.

Pakura asked, “What’s wrong?”

Kazekage replied, “For one, he has noticed my ‘Third Eye’ and is repeatedly destroying it Sand, so it’s no point keeping it active anymore. And second, he is moving in the direction of the Guest House of the third section!”

“The Guesthouse of the third section…?” – After a pause, Pakura continued, “So what’s wrong with that, at least he is not directly attacking the civilians, besides, there should be no major issue even if goes inside the Guest house, it’s not like anyone is staying there, right?!”

Kazekage shook his head and did not bother to answer.

One of the Anbu shinobi following the four hurriedly filled in the details to Pakura, “Captain, two Konoha Shinobi are staying in the Guest House of the third Section…”

“What?!” = Pakura was taken aback and realized the seriousness of the matter.

Gaara may be as young as six years old, but he was able to fatally wound Yashamaru. Clearly signifying his danger level. After all, Yashamaru was an elite member of Anbu, as well as, Kazekage’s right-hand man, so he was by no means a pushover!

So, Gaara’s strength even at such a tender age is no joke, especially now that he has lost control. It would not be wrong to say that anyone below the level of Kage level strength stands little chance in the face of Gaara’s rampage.

And since Pakura does not know the identity of the two Konoha Shinobi, so she is now worried. If Konoha Shinobi who are here to deliver Hokage’s message to Kazekage were to die from Ichibi’s rampage, then the responsibility would obviously fall on the heads of Sunagakure. And Suna would have no suitable explanation for Konoha. The situation would become very complicated.

Kazekage knew of his mistake, and he couldn’t wait anymore, he instantly brought some Gold Sand out of the Gourd. He as well as other followers stood on the Gold Sand platform and rushed towards the Guest House.

In the Guest House.

The main gate of the House was flung open and later crushed by Sand. And in came a child probably around six- years old with red hair and a conspicuous wound on his forehead. It seems the iconic Kanji symbol (愛) that translates to ‘Love’ was just now etched on the forehead using the sand, the kid also did not have any eyebrows (perhaps because of being born prematurely?) but he did have heavy dark circles and eye bags under his eyes.

‘Gaara, Gaara of the Sand…?’ – thought Kuroto as he observed the child. Kuroto was curious as to why did the child come here…?

Shisui was on guard, and after a bit of silence, he whispered to Kuroto, “Kuroto-san, this child is…”

Kuroto nodded, “Mm-hmm, he is the Jinchuriki of Ichibi…”

A fool can judge that Gaara’s situation is abnormal. At this moment a hideous face with a twisted expression had taken over the child’s face. The child is laughing maniacally, with saliva overflowing from the corners of his mouth. All his expression, as well as behavior, makes people shudder.

But Shisui and Kuroto obviously realized that the kid is a Jinchuriki, and has probably lost control over the Bijuu…

Gaara looked at the two, then muttered coldly, “Both of you will die here…!”

Following his words, Sand surged from Gaara’s feet and as if being telekinetically controlled, it rushed towards Kuroto and Shisui.

Rush… Boom…!

But before it could even touch either of the two, Kuroto extended his right hand, with his palm facing towards Gaara, and immediately a force field appeared around the two. The force field easily blocked all the Sand that came towards the two.

Realizing the change in expression of Gaara, Kuroto muttered, “It seems that he has not completely lost control…”

Kuroto also saw the pain and anger in Gaara’s eyes, and realizing this, a thought flashed in Kuroto’s mind, ‘This seems to be a good opportunity to make Sunagakure owe some favor to me…’

The next moment a smirk appeared on Kuroto’s lips. Gaara is is the Jinchuriki, Kuroto does not know what exactly happened that caused Gaara to suddenly run amok, but it is probably related to the back story Gaara.

With his current condition, it seems very likely that Ichibi is going to go on a rampage.

Kuroto doesn’t even need to make up some excessive or believable excuse, the act of legitimate self-defense alone is more than enough to make up for what he is planning to do. And Kazekage would obviously not be able to put any blame on the two because of their heroic act of saving the village.

After making up his mind, Kuroto’s smirk widened. The best way to stimulate Gaara is to make him bleed.

To make Gaara bleed, Kuroto used Rein Wheel Attraction on Gaara.

Under the traction force, Gaara instantly flew towards Kuroto and was held off by the neck, at the same time, his Sand Armor instantly broke and all the sand landed on the ground.

Although he had started to lose control, Gaara still had some consciousness, more accurately his consciousness was still the dominant one, as such when he realized the situation he was in; when he realized that his Sand Armor was broken so easily and he could no longer control the Sand that has always danced as per his thoughts, various emotions appeared on his face.

It started with a surprise, then shock, following which anger, and finally fear.

Kuroto did not pity Gaara, he just said, “Sorry kid, I am going to be making use of you, for now, maybe I will compensate you in the future if I feel like it.”

Then Kuroto took a Kunai out of his shinobi bag and put it over Gaara’s shoulder, who was struggling to break free but was unable to do so.

Before making the final cut Kuroto instructed Shisui, “Shisui, get ready to suppress a fully liberated Bijuu…”

Shisui nodded and activated his Mangekyou Sharingan.

Gaara’s heart shuddered when he looked at the sharp light of Kunai, without the protection of his Sand Armor, Gaara was nothing more than a lonely and tortured six years old kid, who lacks love and care, he was really afraid, and helpless.

But did Kuroto care? Obviously no! Without any pity, Kuroto pierced the Kunai the very next moment.

Pierce…

Drip… Drip… drip…

Blood dripped through the wound, it trailed along the blade on Kunai, dying Kuroto’s hand red, then fell on the floor

Feeling the physical, Gaara’s struggle suddenly came to a halt.

His eyes landed on the red liquid on Kuroto’s hand, and the dripping sound.

Gaara is obviously no stranger to blood, but this is the first time he has seen his own blood, so he was a little dazed.

Kuroto felt that the impact was less, and he moved the Kunai a little to increase the size of the wound.

After he was sure that Gaara would have definitely felt it, he drew out the kunai following which the blood flow increased.

All the while Gaara’s eyes were on the red liquid.

When the amount of blood increased, finally there was a scream, “Ahhhhh!!!”

Finally realizing that he was hurt more emotions started appearing on his face, and his eyes changed.

The very next moment, his body structure started changing, indicating the signs of Ichibi taking full control, and Gaara losing consciousness.

At this time, Kuroto led go of Gaara… who has started to change into Ichibi.

Boom… Boom… Boom…

With loud explosive sounds, the Jinchuriki of Ichibi had finally gone berserk, Ichibi has taken control, and what awaits now is the destruction of Sunagakure, just like Konoha suffered at the hands of Kyuubi!
