Chapter 489
Jiraiya froze. He couldn’t do something like chop his own hand.
“Since you can’t do it, then stop talking nonsense. You’re really frustrating!” Orochimaru turned and left.
Yamanaka Ryo and the Minato followed him closely from behind and left, leaving Jiraiya alone in the laboratory, feeling depressed.
……….
At the same time, at the high tower in the center of Amegakure, Nagato successfully repaired Jigokudō and then used Jigokudō to resurrect the other five Pain bodies.
After Pain Rikudō’s recovery, Nagato focused on Konoha once again. Konan was concerned. The person who had appeared suddenly before was too strong, which left her frightened.
And that man’s last words made Konan vaguely think that he had some relationship with Jiraiya.
Nagato had similar ideas, but Nagato really couldn’t think of any Jiraiya’s discipline or his friends that could have such a fast speed, great strength, and great observation ability.
The former Namikaze Minato fitted well, but he died the night of the Kyuubi attack a long time ago. This is something everyone in Ninja World knows, and the person that appeared in front of them was different from that of Namikaze Minato.
Nagato was so sure that that person was not using the transformation technique because if he did, his Rinnegan could tell it apart. So neither Nagato nor Konan can associate the one who destroyed Pain Rikudō with anyone but Namikaze Minato.
As they struggled whether that man’s identity was Namikaze Minato or not, the Sasuke group carried Hachibi back to the Akatsuki east base and met Obito.
“Hachibi is here. Where is Itachi?”
Obito laughed and took Itachi’s corpse out of Kamui’s space.
After the exchange was completed, Sasuke left with Itachi’s body on his back.
“Would you want to follow him?” White Zetsu asked just as Sasuke had just left.
Obito nodded, “Well, just catch up on him and leave a few spores on him, he’s still useful for us.”
“I understand. What about Pain? Would you like to send a Body Clone to inform him to prepare to seal Hachibi?”
“No need, I’ll go over there myself! You can attach the spores to Sasuke and get back right away. By the way, call Black Zetsu. Sealing Hachibi will need his help.”
“Okay, I’ll go right away.”
After that, White Zetsu dived into the ground and disappear.
While Obito moved Hachibi to the bottom of the tower in the center of Amegakure with Kamui, he was discovered by Nagato as soon as he appeared. He controlled Tendo and came down from the tower and asked, “Is something wrong?”
“Hachibi has arrived. I’m here to inform you to suspend operations against Konoha. Sealing Hachibi has to come first!”
Nagato, hearing this, turned his eyes to “Killer B” on Obito’s shoulder and said, “I didn’t expect you to catch Hachibi so quickly. We start sealing tonight!”
……….
In the evening, the remaining members of Akatsuki gathered in Amegakure.
Hoshigaki Kisame glanced at the others and said, “I did not expect that there were only 5 of us left in Akatsuki. Kakuzu and Hidan didn’t look like guys with short-lived… Sasori and Deidara’s strength also is not bad, let alone Itachi. I really didn’t expect these people to die before me.”
“Hoshigaki Kisame, as far as I know, Deidara hasn’t died yet, but I don’t know his whereabouts. Neither Pain nor I can contact him,” Obito said.
“Is he still alive? Didn’t White Zetsu say that Deidara blew himself up? Why …”
“I did see him explode at that time because he was afraid of being affected. He dived underground when he exploded. I thought he was dead. But my Body Clone saw him a few days ago at the Country of Earth’s border.” White Zetsu explained.
Hoshigaki Kisame laughed and said, “I didn’t expect this guy to be so tough.”
“Well, let’s stop the chat here! Let’s deal with Hachibi Jinchūriki first!” Nagato interrupted everyone’s conversation.
“Pain is right, we need to take care of Hachibi first.” Konan added.
Everyone present used both hands to start sealing Hachibi.
What they didn’t expect was that right after the sealing began and the Hachibi Chakra in “Killer B” drained.
And The “Killer B” body became a thin octopus tentacle.
Obito said somewhat annoyedly, “Sasuke is still too young. To think that he was fooled by this kind of thing….”
“Aren’t we as foolish as him? We didn’t even notice it.”
“It’s surprising that Hachibi still has this technique.”
Nagato gave a glance at the octopus tentacle and said, “Okay! Since it’s fake, let’s end it here! Hoshigaki Kisame, it’s now your job to catch Hachibi. White Zetsu, uses your Body Clone to help Hoshigaki Kisame find Hachibi location. As for the other, we will begin the plan to attack Konoha. “
“When will you act?” Obito asked.
“White Zetsu, explain the status of Konoha.”
Instead of answering Obito, Nagato asked White Zetsu about the Konoha circumstance.
“According to the intel I got from spores that I’ve spread near Konoha… The current main battle strength of Konoha is only Tsunade, Hatake Sakumo, Hatake Kakashi, Yamanaka Suzune, and other four people. Oh, and Uchiha Fugaku. I suspect Uchiha Fukagu has opened Mangekyou Sharingan. “
“Uchiha Fugaku? If it was him, it would be possible to have Mangekyō,” Obito murmured to himself.
“We don’t need to worry about Tsunade, she will choose to protect the village as a Hokage at the beginning of the raid, and she won’t be at the frontline. Yamanaka Lain owns Mokuton and can restrain many people, so she will be your responsibility, Black White Zetsu. As for Hatake Sakumo, Konan, you just need to hold him back. And Pain will be enough to deal with Hatake Kakashi. I’ll leave Uchiha Fugaku to you,Tobi!”
“Well, you got it!”
“That’s all for now. While Konoha’s main battle strength isn’t there, we set off tomorrow to attack Konoha!”
…….
Konoha village didn’t know Pain’s plan, nor did Naruto, which was now at Mount Myōboku.
After coming to Mount Myōboku for 2 days, Naruto successfully sensed the natural Chakra with toad oil. Fukasaku Sennin expressed satisfaction with Naruto’s progress.
But Naruto continued to work hard to adapt to the natural Chakra and strive to complete the training as soon as possible.
……..
Sasuke returned to Otogakure with his group after taking back Itachi’s body. Sasuke wants to learn more from Yamanaka Ryo or Orochimaru about the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.
Upon returning to Otogakure, Sasuke saw Yamanaka Ryo hanging around in the village. Before he left, Yamanaka Ryo was still merging with Kaguya’s Chakra, and now it looked like the training is over.
Sasuke quickly ran over to say hello to Yamanaka Ryo.
Yamanaka Ryo was somewhat surprised by Sasuke’s return. He thought that Obito would use Itachi’s corpse to take advantage of Sasuke, but he didn’t expect Sasuke to come back so soon.
After the two chatted for a while, Sasuke turned around and said, “Ryo-sama, I want to know about the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, can you tell me about it?”
