Naruto Paradise: An Evil Uchiha's Rise-Chapter 133: Cracks in the Cage: Samui’s Descent into Obedience

"Temari, Kankuro, the village..."

It was all gone now.

Before Sunagakure was breached by Konoha's Ninja Army, Gaara, along with some young Sunagakure ninja, had fled their home at the urging of the others.

They were forced to become exiled ninja, just like the ninja who escaped from Whirlpool Country after its destruction years ago.

No country, no village, no place to rely on.

Just living aimlessly.

Since being defeated by Naruto and Sasuke together, Gaara's bloodlust had faded.

He began to wonder why Temari was taken away by the people of Konoha in order to protect him, and why the last of the village's Ninja Army fought so stubbornly, just so that they could survive...

"Is it... because of love?"

Gaara clutched his face, a headache forming.

The word "love" was etched on his forehead.

But he had never sensed the existence of such a thing throughout his life.

Until today...

It was too late.

Gaara shook his head. Sunagakure had been destroyed, and Temari and Kankuro were probably killed in Konoha.

His father, whom he had wanted to take revenge on, had already been killed by Orochimaru and turned into his puppet, a fate worse than death.

What should I live for now?

Konoha?

Should he avenge the people of the village against Konoha?

He didn't know.

Shunned by the village, feared by the village, assassinated by his father and uncle...

But today, the village was gone in an instant, and those who hated or feared him were also gone.

For the first time in his life, Gaara felt absolute loneliness.

This feeling of losing all ties left him feeling lost and helpless.

So much so that he walked alone for a long time without consciously stopping, just moving forward aimlessly.

If Konoha's pursuers caught up, he would fight to the death.

He thought to himself.

But to his surprise, the people who caught up with him were not Konoha's pursuers, but--

"Oh, isn't this the Sunagakure Jinchuriki Kid? Still alive, huh."

A short, ugly man wearing a Black and Red Cloud Cloak suddenly stood in front of him.

"Who are you?"

Gaara expressionlessly manipulated the sand from the gourd on his back, adopting a defensive stance.

"Scorpion, now Akatsuki."

Scorpion of the Red Sand sized up the One-Tail Jinchuriki in front of him with interest.

"Since we've met, you're my prey."

"Akatsuki?"

Gaara had heard of this organization, because a rogue ninja from Sunagakure had once joined this mysterious organization.

His name seemed to be...

"Scorpion? You're Chiyo's grandson..."

That Chiyo's grandson, Sunagakure's most talented Puppet Masters?

The rogue ninja who poisoned his comrades, left the village, and joined Akatsuki?

"That Old Woman is already dead, along with her puppets, what a pity."

"No, Elder Chiyo asked me to hand over two intact puppets to you."

After all, he was able to escape from Sunagakure thanks to the desperate resistance of Chiyo and others, and Gaara had heard many last words and instructions.

Now he could complete one of them.

Taking out the scroll containing the puppets from his ninja pouch, Gaara confirmed the other party's identity and threw it over.

"Puppets for me?"

Whoosh!

A long spike shot out from the short man's body like a scorpion's tail, then curled up the scroll thrown by Gaara and retracted.

It turned out that this short, ugly man was not a living person, but just a puppet.

After receiving the scroll thrown by Gaara, Scorpion instantly understood what puppets were inside--

His long-deceased parents.

They had been made into puppets by Chiyo and preserved to this day.

"Giving me this, is she planning to have me protect you?"

Although he had betrayed the village long ago, Scorpion could not help but feel a little sentimental about the destruction of Sunagakure.

There was even a faint hint of hatred for Konoha welling up in his heart.

"No, she didn't say anything, she just told me to hand this over to you."

Gaara shook his head calmly.

"That Old Woman..."

Scorpion had originally intended to bring the One-Tail Jinchuriki back to Akatsuki, but now, he no longer had this idea.

"Consider it a reward for delivering the message. I'll let you go this time. In the future, if you encounter a ninja wearing the same clothes as me, you better run as far as you can."

After saying these words of advice, Scorpion turned around and walked elsewhere.

Fortunately, he was acting alone today, so this kid was lucky.

"Wait!"

But Gaara surprisingly took the initiative to stop Scorpion, who was about to leave.

"What? Changed your mind and planning to ask me to protect you?"

Scorpion stopped.

"No, I just want to ask... what kind of organization is Akatsuki?"

An organization that could attract so many powerful rogue ninja must be quite powerful.

Whether he chose revenge or something else in the future, this Akatsuki might be a good place to settle down for him now.

"What, you want to join Akatsuki too?"

"Is that not allowed?"

"What do you think? Our organization's goal is the Tailed Beasts and Jinchuriki. Going there would just be delivering yourself to our doorstep."

Even if it was just a puppet, Scorpion couldn't help but chuckle at Gaara's idea.

A Jinchuriki wants to join Akatsuki?

He must have misheard.

"Is that so."

Gaara felt that he seemed to have been discriminated against again because of his Jinchuriki status.

"Scorpion, since he wants to join, why not let him? The Leader might find a Jinchuriki recruit amusing."

Just as Scorpion was about to turn around again and give up talking to Gaara, a white bird suddenly flew over his head, and then a Blond Ninja wearing the same Akatsuki Black and Red Cloud Cloak jumped down.

"Even Deidara showed up?"

Then it seemed that the fate of this One-Tail Jinchuriki had been decided.

Scorpion pondered for a moment, then stopped caring about the life or death of this One-Tail Jinchuriki.

"When you die, I will turn you into a puppet. Now... come with me to Akatsuki."

"Okay."

Even though another strange ninja had appeared in front of him, Gaara's naturally unsmiling face did not show much fear.

Having lost all his ties, he no longer cared about life or death.

"That tone, that expression... you're really a hateful Little Kid."

Looking at Gaara's indifferent appearance, Deidara couldn't help but think of Uchiha Itachi.

That hateful guy who almost killed him with his Clay Bomb.

"You're pretty annoying too, with a mouth on your hand, disgusting."

Gaara retorted.

For some reason, he also didn't like this blond guy in front of him.

----

"Sunagakure has been destroyed? That's sudden."

The information that Sunagakure had been occupied by Konoha, along with the One-Tail Jinchuriki Gaara, came to Pain.

Akatsuki held a rare full member meeting today.

"The feeling of having your village and country destroyed--it seems you have fully experienced that pain, Gaara."

Regarding this Jinchuriki who requested to join Akatsuki, Pain did not control him as others had expected. Instead, he was seriously considering whether to agree to the other party's joining.

This boy who had the same experience as him was indeed worth a second glance.

"Pain..."

Gaara didn't know if his mood during this time could be considered pain.

Rather than feeling pleasure, he was now more confused and wanted to become stronger.

"Experience Pain, contemplate it, accept it, understand it... only by going through these stages can people find their own answers."

Pain said something incomprehensible.

Then, he sent a Ring towards Gaara.

"From now on, you will use 'Sand' as your code name and act together with Shisui. Coincidentally, you two are both new members and both have been deeply devastated by Konoha."

The Ring thrown to Uchiha Shisui was 'Illusion', representing the highest Illusionary Technique.

"Shisui? That Shisui of the Body Flicker?"

"Isn't he dead? How could he be... whoa, could it be that he's immortal like me?"

"What about Itachi? Did Itachi really betray us?"

Deidara, Hidan, and Kakuzu were all surprised by another new member brought by Pain.

"The preparations are complete. Now, our Akatsuki's mission is to bring back the Jinchuriki and Tailed Beasts."

Nagato had completed the nurturing of the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path during this time.

Now he could seal the Tailed Beasts at any time and complete the ultimate weapon he wanted.

"What about the mercenary mission from Iwagakure?"

"Don't bother with it. Our Akatsuki will not interfere in the war for the time being. Let the Five Great Nations... now the Four Great Nations, let these great powers feel Pain."

"Yes."

Although they didn't know why the Leader always mentioned the word Pain, the people of Akatsuki were almost used to it.

"Gaara, you are now both an Akatsuki member and a Jinchuriki. I will try my best to arrange you as the last one. If I find other solutions along the way, I will also try my best to spare your life."

"It doesn't matter, if it can really make Konoha feel Pain, it doesn't matter if I die."

Gaara now understood what Scorpion had said back then.

But now that he was on the thief ship, he couldn't get off even if he wanted to.

"If this is your last wish, I will do my best to help you."

Pain was very satisfied with Gaara's attitude.

With the addition of two new members, Uchiha Shisui and Gaara, they could just fill the positions of Itachi and Kisame.

Although Kisame was still in the organization, unlike Itachi, he was after all from Obito's side... the possibility of rebellion was too great.

"I will have Konan pass on the information about the Tailed Beasts and Jinchuriki during the mission to you. Now dismiss the meeting."

Speaking of which, Konan had been to Konoha for so long, it was time for her to come back.

After arranging the tasks for all the members of Akatsuki, Nagato couldn't help but start to worry about Konan, who was out on a mission.

----

"That little girl at the flower shop looks too much like the Older sister who saved me more than twenty years ago."

Konoha Village.

Konan, who had just bought flowers from the flower shop, did not leave, but secretly observed the blond girl who appeared in the flower shop.

In addition to exchanging information with Uchiha Itachi in Konoha, Konan naturally had some thoughts about inquiring about old friends.

But she didn't expect...

"Looking alike is one thing, but the name is also similar."

Not only this girl in the flower shop, but even the name Uchiha Kage...

'A boy named Uchiha Kage became a hero of Konoha.'

This was the information Konan had recently inquired about in Konoha.

How could Uchiha Kage be...

This was too strange.

However, she didn't expect Konoha to have actually destroyed Sunagakure, and now even Iwagakure was here...

The pattern and balance of the Ninja World had been broken.

In the future, the entire Ninja World would definitely fall into chaos again.

Well, this world was originally a mess anyway...

Shaking her head, Konan carefully put the bouquet in her arms into her storage scroll.

In this world, only beautiful flowers can heal people's hearts.

----

On the other side.

After Yuhi Kurenai left.

Uchiha Kage truly began to size up the big-breasted Female Ninja in front of him, whom he hadn't seen for several days.

What had Yuhi Kurenai done to her to make her look so haggard, and even willing to use the Seal to ask for his help?

However, there were no scars on the other party's body, so it seemed that it was just mental torment?

"Quickly let me out, I don't want to face her anymore... I'll do anything."

Although Yuhi Kurenai didn't do anything special to her, Samui was being resented by this 'enemy' every day, tormented by various tricks, and watched all night like taming an eagle. Even an iron man would have to surrender.

There was nothing in this world more unbearable than the gaze of an enemy.

"Don't let her torture me anymore."

She had never seen such a tormenting female ninja.

"It's your fault for offending her and leaving a scar on her stomach."

Uchiha Kage knew very well how much Yuhi Kurenai cared about this.

That's why she targeted Samui so much.

"However, she was able to control herself and not use a Kunai to make a hole in your stomach, which is already very restrained."

"You..."

Samui wanted to say that you bastard have been in my stomach countless times, what face do you have to speak for that woman?

But she held back.

This guy was just a hypocrite and didn't treat her like a human at all.

She had already softened so much, but this guy still hadn't unlocked her shackles or released her from the Cell.

When facing that woman Yuhi Kurenai, he was afraid that she would catch a cold, and he even carried her like a princess...

It was really disgusting.

"What do you want me to do to get me out of here?"

For no reason, Samui couldn't help but feel more resentment towards Uchiha Kage's gentle behavior towards other women but cruel behavior towards her.

"Is that your attitude towards me? Then I think you should stay here for the rest of your life."

"You..."

Samui raised her head with a face full of resentment, then quickly suppressed her anger and lowered her head.

Stay here for the rest of her life? Then she might as well kill her quickly!

"I, I was wrong, please spare me."

There was no other way. In order to escape this place, Samui had to beg Uchiha Kage for mercy again.

"Call me master first and let me hear it."

He didn't expect Yuhi Kurenai's effect on Samui to be so good.

Looking at the Female Ninja's obedient appearance, Uchiha Kage couldn't help but want to bully her a little more.

Was this the best time to tame her?

"You bastard!"

Clang.

Samui suddenly grabbed the iron bars of the Cell, glaring at the boy outside the cage with a resentful expression.

"Hey! Don't, don't go..."

Watching Uchiha Kage turn around and leave without hesitation, the Female Ninja could only grit her teeth and tremble with anger as she called out the title that made her uncomfortable.

"M-Master."

He must satisfied now! This damn shameless man!
