Orochi Shin'ya gazed unwillingly at the Third Kazekage above the fortress, its remaining left eye flashing with resentment, despair, and a deep disappointment.
Its only weakness had been breached, and it immediately lost its ability to fight. Its massive serpentine body swayed, devoid of all strength, and finally, with a loud *"BOOM,"* it crashed straight to the ground.
Seeing Orochi Shin'ya subdued, the masked Ninja finally breathed a sigh of relief. At the Third Kazekage's command, they stepped forward, took out chains engraved with Sealing Jutsu Formulae, and attempted to completely restrain it, packing it up for transport.

At this moment, a Ninja approached the Third Kazekage, removed his mask, and bowed slightly.
"Wind Shadow-sama."
The Third Kazekage nodded faintly, "Hmm, the Uzumaki clan's Jinchuriki, are you ready?"
"Rest assured, everything is arranged." The man surveyed the battlefield, looking at the devastation, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "It's a pity, we lost an elite unit. Is paying such a high price really worth it?"
"Of course, it's worth it. Shin'ya is the strongest Shinobi Beast of Ryuchi Cave, its entire body filled with Sage Art energy. Its destructive power is no less than Shukaku's. If we can completely subdue it, the value to the village will undoubtedly be immense." The Third Kazekage's expression remained unchanged. "If it weren't so untamable, I wouldn't have used such an extreme method."
He paused, then continued, "Moreover, this is just the beginning. The Uzumaki clan are the most perfect Jinchuriki. Whether it's their constitution or their Sealing Technique, they can easily suppress Shinobi Beasts. If sealing Shin'ya is successful, then it means... sealing Shukaku is also possible!"
"I see, Wind Shadow-sama is truly far-sighted. I was foolish." The man cupped his fist in his other hand, revealing an admiring gaze.
The Third Kazekage glanced sideways and asked, "Are you sure that Uzumaki clansman is willing to cooperate with our operation? Don't let anything unexpected happen."
"Lord, please rest assured."
The man sneered, "At first, she was quite uncooperative, but after we tortured her companions in front of this little girl, she became much more obedient. She's willing to help us seal Shin'ya and become its Jinchuriki. I believe that no matter how stubborn she is, she won't risk her companion's life to be willful."
"Don't kill them." The Third Kazekage frowned slightly, his tone carrying a hint of displeasure, "These three Uzumaki clansmen are very useful alive. We'll need containers for sealing Shukaku in the future. The Land of Whirlpools's lone Uzumaki clansmen aren't so easy to catch."
"Lord is right to reprimand me, I will definitely pay attention."
The man chuckled, noticing that the Wind Shadow's mood was a little off, and immediately stepped forward, "Lord's plan is truly flawless. Although the monk Bunpuku can stabilize the seal on Shukaku, he can't exert any combat power at all, he's simply a burden. If Lord's plan can succeed, our Hidden Sand Village will also have a true Jinchuriki!"
"If you could put the energy you spend on flattery into practical work, I would have promoted you to the higher echelons long ago." The Third Kazekage snorted, "Quickly transfer Shin'ya back to the fortress and complete the sealing ritual. That fellow's self-healing ability is strong, I'm afraid it won't be long before he recovers. Delay will only bring trouble!"
...
Just as the Sand Ninja were busily binding Shin'ya with layers of chains, a clear voice floated from above, carrying across the entire field like a breeze:
"After working so hard for so long, you all must be tired. You've even helped us pack up Shin'ya."
The Third Kazekage's expression stiffened, and he immediately looked up. Facing the blinding sunlight, two figures floated down.
The leading young man had a handsome figure, with eyebrows like distant mountains and pupils like ink jade. A crimson spirit mark adorned his forehead, adding a touch of bewitching to his handsome face.
Behind him followed a seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth, with pale skin, disheveled black hair, and two golden vertical pupils, curiously examining the mountain-like serpent Shin'ya, seemingly not taking the Sand Ninja into consideration at all.
"Who are you?"
The Third Kazekage's eyes revealed gravity, but his momentum did not weaken by half. His gaze was like a sharp sword piercing through the yellow sand desert, looking down from a high position, coldly suspended above Shin'yu's head.
Shin'yu smiled slightly, calmly uttering his name: "Uchiha Shin'yu."
The Third Kazekage visibly paused for a moment upon hearing this name, but his gaze became even more intense, as if blades were condensing in his eyes.
"Your Excellency's name precedes you, I've only heard legends, never seen the person, but seeing you today, you're just a young brat?"
Shin'yu glanced at Orochimaru smugly, pretending to whisper, "Did you hear that? He's praising me for being young."
Orochimaru smiled wryly. Although he knew his Master's confidence, he couldn't maintain composure under the encirclement of so many Hidden Sand elites. He could only divert his attention by observing the snakes.
The Third Kazekage's face darkened inch by inch, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes. "If you leave now, I can pretend nothing happened. Otherwise..."
He crossed his arms and slowly raised his fingers, the Chakra of Wind and Lightning Release brewing within him.
"Put down your fingers."
Shin'yu tilted his head slightly, uttering each word distinctly, "Also... don't stand so high to talk to me."
The last syllable of his sentence hadn't finished when his eyes were instantly illuminated with scarlet. Exquisite patterns connected into a magic circle in an instant. As the air twisted slightly, the Third Kazekage's expression suddenly changed.
His vision spun in an instant. The dizziness from this space shift made him somewhat uncomfortable. When everything before him became clear again, he was actually standing face to face with Shin'yu!
Before he could overcome the slight feeling of weightlessness, a hand suddenly grabbed his throat, lifting him up like he was a small chick.
"Do you want to dance?"
Shin'yu smiled slightly, the Mangekyo Sharingan emitting a faint red glow. He threw him forward abruptly, and the Third Kazekage instantly turned into a human cannonball, smashing through fortresses and crashing into the Fortress.
Two Sand Ninja reacted the fastest. They spun the hilts in their palms, and the blades were instantly infused with a layer of Wind Release Chakra as thin as cicada wings, creating a cold arc of light as they slashed towards Shin'yu's neck in a crisscross pattern.
"Clang—"
The two were stunned. Judging from the sensation, their blades had indeed struck Shin'yu's neck, but it felt like they had hit some kind of mysterious divine iron. For a moment, they even heard a crisp metallic hum.
"Listen carefully, my purpose is to rescue the Uzumaki clansmen who are imprisoned deep within the Fortress, and at the same time, seize the giant serpent Shin'ya and wash the entire Fortress in blood."
Shin'yu announced calmly, his expression without the slightest fluctuation. As he spoke, the two swords against his neck shattered simultaneously.
"I wish you good luck in the upcoming battle."
Black mist floated as two huge Susanoo arms slammed down ferociously. The speed was as fast as a lightning strike. Two booms were heard, and the ground instantly exploded, raising a cloud of yellow sand.
But as the dust settled, the two who had attacked earlier had been hammered into meat paste and buried in the sand pit.
"Now..."
Shin'yu's lips curled into a smile, and splattered blood trickled down the Susanoo's skeleton, "Let the battle begin."
