Chapter 432

Lain was a war orphan. She had wandered alone in the Country of Fire from a young age before being brought to Konoha by people from Utatane Konaru.

In her days of wandering, Lain’s biggest wish was to live without starving. She doesn’t know what these people want, as long as she can fill her stomach.

Later, Lain was taken to Orochimaru to participate in the Shodai cells transplanting experiment, where Lain first met Yamanaka Ryo.

Curious, she saw something different in Ryo’s eyes from the other ones.

She was then adopted to the Yamanaka Clan by Ryo and learned that the experience she was going to undergo might be deadly. She didn’t know why, but facing the experiment, she had no fear of death.

After seeing Yamanaka Nori, Lain’s heart was calmer. A month of living together made her feeling attached to the woman.

While she knew that Nori was truly treating herself like her own daughter, she had no idea if she could pass the experiment alive.

Lain couldn’t accept her sincere love. Until the day before she was going to leave, when Nori said she wanted her to join the clan, Lain’s wall of defense broke down. She couldn’t bear losing Nori. At the same time, she strengthened her faith in surviving.

Later on, the experiment was very successful. Lain survived and joined the clan. Here, she felt something she had never yet experienced.

Slowly, aside from Ryo and Nori, she started to treat everyone in the Yamanaka Clan as her own family. For Lain, the Yamanaka Clan was her most important home. Just now, Kirigakure’s words just touched her senses.

“The dumbest decision? She’s just a little girl. Ao, it’s fine to kill her, right?” Yugao’s mind was eroded by the Rokubi Chakra. Her self-control was thin; killing intent showed in her eyes.

Ao laughed, “Of course, Yugao-sama. Do as you please!”

“Then, I’ll do it in a heartbeat!” As she finished her words, Yugao’s red silhouette flashed away and appeared in front of Lain. She raised her hands and aimed towards Lain’s head.

Lain acted like she couldn’t see her movement. She stood there, motionlessly. But when the claws were about to touch her head, two vines emerged out from the ground. Instantly binding Yugao.

Having her attack blocked, Yugao was furious. She struggled frantically, trying to break the vine.

Lain laughed as she formed hand seals with both hands, and the vines thickened and eventually turned into two small Wood Dragons.

Wood Dragons absorbed Yugao’s Chakra, empowering Lain’s body. Soon, Yugao exited the Bijuu Second Stage. She can’t even maintain Bijuu’s Coat.

“Ao-sama, it seems the Mokuton absorbed Yugao-sama’s Chakra.” A Kirigakure Ninja whispered.

Ao’s expression was complicated. “I didn’t expect they had a Mokuton Ninja.”

“Ao-sama, what should we do? Escape?”

“How can we escape? Relax, they won’t kill us. We will live so they can have benefited from Mizukage-sama. We won’t benefit them by dying.”

Hearing his words, the Kirigakure party was relieved.

“Ao… Ao-sama… Look at those Wood Dragons.” Said Kirigakure Jounin, shaking.

Hearing this, Ao immediately looked back towards the Wood Dragon and was stunned. It turned out after the Dragons had absorbed a large number of Rokubi Chakra, its body turned into a huge form.

Lain snapped her finger, and one of the Wood Dragon lunged towards the stunned Ao’s direction. Ao’s expression changed drastically. He instinctively wanted to escape, but it was too late. The Wood Dragons surrounded them all.

Lain coldly glanced at the people and said coldly. “Kill them.”

When the Wood Dragon heard Lain’s order, it quickly shrunk. It was going to squeeze the Kirigakure people to death.

Ao was surprised. Why didn’t Konoha play the cards? So they really wanted to kill them?

“Lain, wait! They can’t die yet!” Fugaku knew that Lain was serious about killing them, so he hurriedly stopped her.

Lain frowned. “But why?”

“Isn’t it obvious? Killing them won’t do any good for Konoha. By leaving them alive, Kirigakure could exchange money and resources for their lives.”

Lain hesitated and said. “They aimed for the Yamanaka Clan. It’s too risky.”

Fugaku quickly said. “Lain, relax. They had no chance of touching the Yamanaka Clan, to begin with.”

Lain was still hesitating when Ryo suddenly appeared with a smile. “That’s right, Lain. Be a good girl and listen to Uncle Fugaku.”

“But…”

“It’s fine. I also happen to be interested in what these people are saying. Uncle Fugaku, please seal their Chakra. And let Lain escort their leader to the Yamanaka Clan. Let Inochi handle it!”

Fugaku nodded and signaled to the Security Department to seal the Chakra from the Kirigakure Ninjas.

Suddenly, Lain thought of Ichibi. Pointing to Ao, “Onii-san, this one said they used Genjutsu to the Ichibi Jinchuuriki, so he went berserk.”

“Ichibi Jinchuuriki went berserk? No wonder Uncle Jiraiya and Rasa left Konoha together. Relax, Lain, Uncle Jiraiya, and Rasa can deal with Ichibi. Just bring back Ao to the Yamanaka Clan.”

“I got it.” Lain left with Ao.

After dealing with Kirigakure’s people, Fugaku asked, “Ryo, what’s the situation in the village now?”

“It’s under control. With Tsunade-sama’s Katsuyu’s protection, no one died. My clones and the medical ninjas participated in the rescue, so the situation is fairly stable. Now, all we have to do is to deal with these people.”

“I understand. The Security Department will act immediately. Oh, right. What do you want to do with this guy?” Fugaku pointed to Hidan on the side.

“Guess what? He’s a Jashinist and especially had an Immortal Body. He can’t be killed with ordinary methods. But he’s still a human. Once a human loses nutrition, he will die. Uncle Fugaku, help me split him into eight pieces and dig a pit outside the village. Without food and nutrition, he will die sooner or later.”

Fugaku nodded. “Okay, relax. I’ll fetch someone to do it right away.”

After saying that, Fugaku signaled at the rear guard member, and the two guards immediately left with Hidan.
