Ninja Allied Forces retreated in a panic. Suddenly, he saw that the horizon was dyed red. Then, fierce flames soared into the sky and scorched the sky and earth.
Although they were several hundred meters apart, they seemed to be able to feel the scorching heat.
All of Ninja felt a sense of despair in his heart.
In front of such a gap, could the five shadows really survive?
One must know that the Four Kages were Ninja Allied Forces' pillar of support.
Their strength might not be comparable to Uchiha Itachi and Uzumaki Nagato, but they could gather all of Ninja together.
If the Four Kages died in this war, it would be a huge blow to all of the Ninja Village.
Apart from Seireitei's powerful strength, Sunagakure's betrayal became the last straw that crushed everyone.
Sunagakure sat in the desert. Because of the lack of resources, his development was relatively slow compared to other villages.
In this time, Sunagakure's status was also relatively low.
No one had expected that Sunagakure would climb up to Seireitei, a big tree, and rebel at such a critical moment.
Until now, they still did not understand why Sunagakure would do this. One had to know that Shinigami was not a human.
They were trying to overthrow all the rules established by the big countries and the Ninja Village.
This would also harm Sunagakure's interests.
They were puzzled.
However, they never imagined that Gaara was completely uninterested in the so-called rights.
"From today on, Sunagakure will be Seireitei's most solid ally."
Minato looked at Gaara with a smile in his eyes.
"We will send a few Kage-rank Shinigami to stay in the village. Although Ninja Allied Forces is defeated this time, he may vent his anger on Sunagakure."
"After the Ninja Village is finished, you can get the most fertile land with the resources." Naruto looked at Gaara and said lightly.
Sunagakure's betrayal during the war was already very sincere, and Naruto would naturally return more resources to Sunagakure.
After a series of discussions, Gaara also took the Sand Ninja Ninja on the way back to the village.
Among the ranks, there were also many Sand Ninjas who expressed their doubts and dissatisfaction.
In their opinion, Seireitei was indeed the culprit behind the destruction of peace. Why did Gaara choose to stand on Seireitei's side?
However, their respect for Gaara won everything and they chose to support him.
During the journey, Kankuro and Temari looked at Gaara hesitantly. In the end, they could not help but ask, "We and Seireitei are..."
"Of course we are allies." Shukaku said casually and pointed at himself. "Can't you see that I am Shinigami?"
"So, Shukaku, you are Shinigami." Hearing this, Kankuro swallowed his saliva with difficulty.
After seeing Shukaku's ability before, he already had this guess in his heart, but he did not dare to believe it.
Wouldn't becoming an ally with Seireitei mean becoming enemies with the entire Shinobi world?
"Ah, this is too crazy." Temari rubbed his temples, obviously still in shock.
Gaara looked at the two indifferently and said calmly, "I believe you have seen it as well. Even if the other Ninja Villages joined forces, they would still be unable to withstand a single blow. Seireitei's power has already surpassed them and is still growing."
"This time, even Kyubi did not make a move." Shukaku added from the side.
"Naruto only showed his face and scared them away."
"This time, our Sunagakure's choice should be correct."
After Ninja Allied Forces left, Akatsuki's position became very awkward.
They were hired to participate in the war, but they lost the war, and the leader was gone.
Where should the current Akatsuki go?
There was a fierce quarrel among the members.
Deidara and Sasori believed that they could only retreat in the current situation. There were only Tobi, Deidara, Sasori, and Konan among the members of Akatsuki. The leader was captured, and they could not save Nagato with their ability.
Rather than dying, it was better to temporarily retreat and preserve her strength.
However, Nagato was Konan's everything, so she advocated going to Seireitei.
The debate was fruitless, and everyone parted ways.
Konan went deep into Seireitei alone.
However, her stealth ability was not enough to avoid all reconnaissance, so she was surrounded by Shinigami the moment she entered.
Looking at the stubborn woman in front of him, Haku could not help but have a headache. He recognized that Konan was Nagato's companion.
He was envious and impressed by the friendship between Konan and Nagato in his heart, but as a member of Seireitei, he had to execute the people who broke into Seireitei.
The two immediately began to fight.
Under Haku's Shikai, the entire area was almost frozen, and the continuous attacks made Konan even more exhausted.
But Konan had the ability to pay.
Hundreds of millions of explosion talismans appeared, which directly shocked Haku.
"Ahem, sister, let's talk about it." He admitted defeat.
It was not that he was afraid of these exploding talismans, but that the entire Seireitei could not withstand the explosions of these exploding talismans.
"I want to see Nagato." Konan said with an expressionless face.
She was clear about Haku, and now the Explosion Talisman was her only reliance, and also the bargaining chip to negotiate with Seireitei.
Although Haku admired Konan's determination, he still earnestly advised, "You should go back. Although there are a lot of these Explosion Tags, they are not even a threat to Lord Naruto. If you continue to move forward, it is very likely that you will not be able to return."
The bond between Konan and Nagato made Haku think of himself and Zabuza, and the softness in his heart was touched.
However, Konan insisted on entering, so Haku had no choice but to bring Konan inside Seireitei.
He did not forget to remind her, "Follow me closely on the road. Do not make any offensive moves. I will bring you into the hall and then ask Lord Naruto."
In the end, Haku's compassion still decided to help Konan.
"One of Akatsuki's members, Konan. She has a good hand in paper Ninjutsu. What do you think?" In the hall, Naruto looked at Shion and the others.
"Hmph, she's just a weak woman." Shion snorted.
"I think his character is good. He knows that he is not his opponent, but he still wants to save his companions. Maybe she can be absorbed into Seireitei. After all, he is also a Kage-rank." Minato smiled.
"We, Seireitei, are not invincible now. It is also good to recruit some new members." White Fang also expressed his agreement.
"But this way, it won't be easy to dissect Nagato." Shion said with a cold face.
"We just want to study Rinnegan." Naruto muttered, "This pair of Rinnegan should not be Nagato's. He might have been used."
"Huh?" Suddenly, Naruto's expression became strange. He revealed a rather playful expression and muttered to himself, "I didn't care about you before, but now you dare to enter Seireitei?"
"Damn Nagato, he really is a useless fool." The Absolute Illusion turned into a Shinigami, walking on the street, carefully moving towards the main hall.
Nagato's Rinnegan was an indispensable part of his plan, so he absolutely could not let Seireitei get Rinnegan.
He originally wanted to let Zetsu sneak in, but with Zetsu's ability, he estimated that he would be discovered instantly, so he could only rely on his body.
There was no confidence in this operation. After all, there were too many experts in Seireitei.
But even if the operation failed, he could still escape unscathed.
He was very confident in his stealth and escape ability.
Originally, according to his plan, Nagato would resurrect Uchiha Madara.
But after the appearance of Naruto and Seireitei, he discovered that everything had changed.
Nagato had been beaten up, and now even Rinnegan was going to be taken away. This was absolutely not allowed.
Therefore, even if he had to take the risk of being discovered, he still had to think of ways to steal back Rinnegan!
"Condense, Meta field." However, just as Jue was thinking, he was suddenly pulled into a red space.
In his line of sight, Naruto and Minato looked at him with smiles on their faces.
"I was exposed?" Jue was immediately stunned. This time, the overturned car was too thorough.
He tried to dive into the soil.
However, he found that the entire space had been completely locked.
He did not have much combat strength, so he could not break the enchantment at all.
"Hello, little thing." Naruto slowly walked toward Jue with a cold smile. "You little mouse has been around Seireitei for a few months. How dare you enter directly this time?"
Naruto looked at Jue carefully.
It was definitely not a human, and Chakra was wrapped around it. It should be a monster composed of Chakra.
Interestingly, Naruto could sense an enormous consciousness from Jue.
The strength of this consciousness was terrifying.
It couldn't be the alt account of some old monster, right?
Naruto slowly pulled out Zanpakutō.
"Uzumaki Naruto." Jue looked at Naruto, his eyes almost burning. "I didn't expect that I still underestimated the vigilance of you Seireitei. You are obviously a force from the Pure Land. Why do you want to enter the Shinobi world?"
The Spirit World, Ninja World, and Pure Land have always maintained a delicate balance.
Shinobi world had the protection of six of Sage's consciousness, and the other two realms did not dare to rashly invade.
While the Sage of the Spirit World may have the weakest power among them, the difference in strength is not too significant, even if they haven't reached the level of the Six Paths. The dominion of the Pure Land, though extinguished, remains the most mysterious aspect of the Three Realms.
The original Shinigami, who was a spirit flow manager, had formed the most solid defense line.
Therefore, a hundred years and a thousand years had passed, and the three realms had never interfered with the river.
Only the Great Toad of the Spirit Realm Sage, used his prophecy to interfere with the Shinobi world, trying his best to weaken the second Six Path Sage that might appear.
For the Spirit Realm, prosperity and development were the most important.
Shinobi world, on the other hand, had always been in a state of war.
Previously, Uchiha Madara and Shodai Hokage were the ones who were most likely to reach the Six Path level, Ninja. Unfortunately, both of them died after the great war.
After that, Uchiha Madara's Rinnegan appeared in the world. The big toad, Sage, was afraid of those six eyes of Sage, so he found a suitable candidate and made a prophecy to interfere with Shinobi world's development.
The Psychic Realm would never allow a second Six Path Sage to appear, and similarly, it would not allow a powerful force like Seireitei to appear.
Naruto keenly sensed this delicate balance and, therefore, sought to reach a temporary consensus with Orochimaru. They planned to have White Snake Sage eliminate Big Toad Sage first and then deal with the others one by one.
Even if they did not know of Naruto's plan, they would have thought that Naruto had let the Shinobi world allied forces go purely because of his pride.
Little did he know that Naruto was trying to stabilize the third Sage, and also the most peaceful Sage, Katsuyu.
As a person, it was easy to get along with him in the future. Today, Naruto let Ninja Allied Forces go, and Katsuyu would relax.
After the white snake sage and the big toad sage died, it was already too late for Katsuyu to react.
This was also the plan for the beginning of the Pure Land.
"Have you forgotten that I am not only Shinigami, I am also a human." Naruto smiled and said lightly.
Naruto had the energy of two different systems, Reiatsu and Chakra, but he could be used steadily.
Not only that, but Naruto even had the ability of Hollowfication.
It could be said that Naruto's Zanpakutō was strong enough to suppress so many abilities.
"So little thing, do you choose to surrender or be beaten half to death and become Orochimaru's research material?" Naruto revealed a horrifying smile.
"Mokuton!!" Naturally, he would not allow himself to be captured and directly use Ninjutsu.
The huge branch flew towards Naruto. The intertwined leaves circled around the branch, creating a large sound of wind breaking.
This kind of Ninjutsu reminded Naruto of his cheap Sensei and Danzo. His expression immediately became a bit absent-minded.
He said with a smile, "You've brought up a memory that isn't too good for me. Looks like you've already made your choice."
"Ryūjin Jakka." Along with the indifferent voice, raging flames surged and directly enveloped the entire area. The already red sky was even burned red.
"Chi!" The water in the soil under Naruto's feet evaporated in an instant, and the soil dried up and cracked.
Mokuton was scorched by the flames almost instantly.
"Don't you know Ryūjin Jakka's ability? Or do you think that Mokuton can compare with Ryūjin Jakka?" Naruto's voice sounded like a demon in the flames.
He had to admit that there was a moment when he felt fear in his heart.
But he could not hesitate, let alone die!
Because his mother was waiting for his rescue!
"Ah!" Jue let out a roar and ran towards the flames surrounding him, trying to use his body to pass through the flames and reach Meta field's border.
"He doesn't even have the courage to pick up Sword? Sure enough, for the weak who are good at hiding in the shadows, fighting is indeed the most terrifying." Naruto's tone was full of disappointment.
He didn't expect that the mastermind who had been plotting all kinds of schemes only had this amount of equipment.
He felt bored.
"Boom!" Ryūjin Jakka's flames suddenly erupted. The incredible Reiatsu rushed into the sky, causing the entire Meta field to shake and crack.
As the flames fell, Meta field also collapsed.
By the time the smoke and dust dispersed, Jue, who had been burned to the point of no human, was lying on the ground, dying.
Bakudō #8. Seki. The yellow spiritual pressure transformed into ropes, binding Jugo.
Jugo, was captured successfully.
In Seireitei's research institute.
Nagato was tied to the operation platform, and Chakra was completely suppressed in his body. He was now a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
Orochimaru, wearing an experimental robe, held the sharp operation Sword in his hand, and communicated with Nagato with a smile, "Don't worry, don't be afraid. The whole process will be anesthesia. My skills are good, and there will be no pain."
"You want to dig out my eyes?" Nagato was unexpectedly calm.
"To be exact, I want to borrow your eyes to study it." Orochimaru smiled, "We suspect that this pair of Rinnegan does not belong to you. Do you understand what I mean?"
Not his own?
Nagato's eyes blurred as he fell into his memories.
He remembered that when he was a child, he had fainted under a coincidence. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes had become Rinnegan.
He had always thought that this pair of eyes were self-awakened.
Could it really be transplanted?
Seeing the doubts in Nagato's heart, Orochimaru explained:
"Our judgment is based on the basis."
"The original Kekkei Genkai rarely causes great damage to the body, even if there is, it is limited. For example, Uchiha's Mangekyō Sharingan, if used too many times, it will lead to blindness. So from this angle, it is reasonable that Rinnegan, who surpasses Sharingan, will cause damage to the body, but not like you, whose body should be riddled with holes. After my preliminary examination of you, many of the damage caused by the body not adapting to the body."
"This kind of hidden injury and the similarity needed to transplant Kekkei Genkai must be mentioned here - Ninja Kakashi. He had transplanted Sharingan, and his own Chakra was always in a state of exhaustion. His own Chakra could not keep up with the consumption, so his strength was stagnant. And you are a member of the Uzumaki Clan, whether it is Chakra or his physical strength, you should be at the standard. Even if you have Rinnegan, you should not have such a big backlash. The only explanation is that your Rinnegan does not belong to yourself."
Orochimaru slowly sterilized Nagato's skin with alcohol.
"Why do you tell me this? I am just a prisoner now." Nagato had already believed Orochimaru's words in his heart, and he smiled miserably.
"We, Seireitei, are not ordinary people. I believe that you have seen it all along the way. The residents live and work in peace, and everyone yearns for peace. Even human experiments are strictly controlled, and can only be carried out with the consent of experimental subjects." Orochimaru shrugged and began to beautify Seireitei: "Even for outsiders like you, we have great tolerance."
"I don't want to accept your research experiment." Nagato said decisively.
Orochimaru's hand that was holding the operation Sword paused, and then he revealed a perfect smile: "Sorry, you are a special talent. You need to enjoy the excellent treatment of being studied."
"This involves the law of our Seireitei, but don't worry. In general, we, Seireitei, are not ordinary people."
"You..." After seeing Orochimaru's bad taste, Nagato suddenly lost the desire to speak.
"Don't worry, I'm just helping you find the secret of your eyes."
"When I saw you in the past, you were still a weak child. If not for Jiraiya, perhaps you would have already died. From a certain perspective, I can be considered your uncle. Even a tiger wouldn't eat its own child. How could Uncle harm you?" As he spoke, Orochimaru picked up the syringe and knocked on the needle gracefully. His fingers gently squeezed the end of the needle, and a few drops of liquid dripped down the needle and onto the ground.
"Chi." The floor immediately emitted sizzling sounds, continuously dissolving, and even emitting a burnt smell.
"Sorry, I took the wrong potion. This is to reward the criminals." Orochimaru immediately apologized, "Fortunately, I tried to avoid a tragedy. Don't worry, all the mechanisms in our research institute are very reasonable. The probability of mistakes is very low."
This is not low. The ground is about to be corroded. If it was inserted into my body, I might have melted, right?
Seeing this, Nagato was a little panicked.
A pervert was not scary, but he was afraid that a pervert was cultured
Clang. At this moment, the bell in the laboratory rang.
