Itachi Uchiha, Get Lost!!!

Scorpion is a relatively pure abnormal human being, and cannot be simply categorized as good or bad.

He's not mentally sound, but he's pure-hearted. This kind of person isn't easily fooled, but once you succeed, he'll willingly count money for you even if he dies.

If Naruto were still a weakling at this point, he would definitely try every means to weave a perfect dream using his Impure World Reincarnation parents to subdue them and make them work for him.

Unfortunately, he is not weak now, and he has no interest in taking on subordinates.

Within the Akatsuki Organization, only Nagato and Itachi Uchiha could inspire any fear in him. Sasori had lost his reason for existence; death was his best destiny.

After smashing Hiruko with a single punch, Sasori of the Red Sands revealed his true form as the puppet exploded. Unfortunately for him, he was facing Kusanagi Sword.

With a decisive strike, he pierced Sasori's core, ignoring the scimitar hurtling towards him. Flying Thunder God shifted position again, unleashing a distant strike from a tricky angle at Sasori's side.

Without any hesitation, with a loud bang, the jar-like core was ripped out of his body.

The scorpion before them was merely a substitute puppet. With a bang and a puff of white smoke, the corpse lying on the ground transformed into a strange man. The scorpion's Chakra attached to the man instantly dissipated, and the scorpion in the cave lost thirty percent of its Chakra.

He turned to look at Kisame Hoshigaki, who was locked in a fierce battle with the First Hokage and Second Kazekage. Unfortunately, he couldn't absorb any of the Chakra from the corpses Impure World Reincarnation technique.

Naruto threw two Flying Thunder God Techniques while invisible, switched positions twice, and then suddenly kicked Kisame Hoshigaki, crushing his chest. With a bang, a flash of white smoke appeared, and the corpse on the ground was not Kisame.

With just a glance, Naruto used Lava Release to destroy both puppet corpses. Then, he swaggered off with the four Impure World Reincarnation corpses towards the cave where the Akatsuki Organization were extracting the power of the Tailed Beast.

Inside the cave.

Scorpion regained his senses and said calmly.

"It failed."

Not long after, Kisame Hoshigaki regained consciousness. He grinned sinisterly, showing no sign of defeat.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Itachi brother is too strong."

The sealing technique for extracting the tailed beast jinchūriki, Illusionary Dragon Nine Seals, was still in progress, and Gaara unconsciously let out a painful howl.

The Akatsuki Organization members are extracting the power of the Tailed Beast from Gaara's body into the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path. When one of the nine eyes on the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path's face is fully open, it means the Sealing Jutsu is successful.

"Don't waste time." From the corner, Konan, who had been silent all along, spoke up. "There's Sealing Jutsu at the entrance; outsiders can't get in for the time being."

"Speed up the sealing process!"

She didn't need to appear in this kind of situation, but unfortunately, after Kakuzu and Hidan in the Akatsuki Organization were defeated by Naruto, the Akatsuki Organization fell into an economic crisis.

The budget is barely enough to cover the daily activities of the existing members, leaving no energy for recruiting new ones. The quality of the new recruits we've chosen is also questionable, which is why the process has dragged on until now.

Adhering to the principle that if no one else can be an angel, then she must personally go into the sea, Konan took the place of Kakuzu and Hidan, and did her best to maintain the Sealing Jutsu.

In contrast, the most lazy employee Itachi Uchiha, despite his immense strength, was unwilling to contribute anything extra to the organization. Adhering to the principle of doing only what he was paid for, he avoided speaking whenever possible.

From beginning to end, Itachi Uchiha was merely maintaining the Sealing Jutsu absentmindedly.

Upon hearing Konan's statement about speeding up the sealing process, he increased his Chakra output speed in his phantom state, an "effort" that was only compared to his previous slacking off.

"We've used up both puppets, and the Sealing Jutsu is almost complete," Pain's main body, Deva Path, said. "The Sealing Jutsu at the entrance can buy us some time; we can still speed things up."

At this moment, Naruto had already arrived at his destination.

As the Nikko sets, the warmth of the sun shines through the forest.

A small rift valley blocks the way through the forest, within which flows a wide river. On one side of the riverbank, a vermilion torii gate stands on the cliff face, behind which a huge rock obscures the entrance to a cave.

A small sealing talisman was pasted on Taiseki at the entrance of the cave, swaying gently in the Nikko and wind.

He jumped down and touched the sealing talisman.

"Five-Seal Barrier, huh? There are talismans in five different places. The Sealing Jutsu can only be broken by removing them all at the same time," Naruto muttered to himself, then tore off the seal talismans.

Just as the barrier was about to backfire on him, Naruto reached out and shouted.

"Four Symbols Seal!"

The merciless black hole spun, completely engulfing the barrier that was launching a backlash. In terms of Sealing Jutsu, nothing was more domineering than the Four Symbols Seal given away by the system.

The Four Symbols Seal is a powerful sealing technique that uses the cycle of the four symbols to seal off evil forces. Whether it's sealing the Nine-Tails or the Reaper Death Seal, both are based on the Four Symbols Seal and modified accordingly.

Furthermore, since it's produced by the system, it's guaranteed to be of high quality.

The Four Symbols Seal he currently possesses has completely transcended ordinary Sealing Jutsu. Not only does it have an independent Sealing Space like Kamui, but it may also be a product directly modified by the system based on the Nine-Tails' prison.

In short, the Four Symbols Seal is extremely powerful and is his last trump card.

"Oh no! The barrier has been broken!" Konan suddenly looked up.

Pain, clearly realized the seriousness of the situation and looked up at the cave exit. The others turned to look, and Itachi Uchiha also glanced at the cave entrance out of the corner of his eye.

The silence didn't last two seconds. With a loud bang, the cave entrance was kicked open.

The several-ton-heavy, hard rock was kicked like a ball, flying with tremendous force towards the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path that was performing the Sealing Jutsu.

Scorpion acted decisively, his Hiruko stinger piercing the boulder. With a deafening crash, the rock shattered into pieces, raining down like a storm of stones.

A ray of light pierced through the cave entrance, striking the rock wall at the cave entrance like a blade.

Although Scorpion shattered the boulder with his stinger, he also suffered a backlash and let out a muffled groan. The corresponding Sealing Jutsu's Chakra chains trembled, making the already strained Sealing Jutsu even more precarious.

Gaara, still unconscious, was having his Tailed Beast Chakra continuously drained, and at this moment, he barely managed to open his eyes a crack. While enduring immense pain, his gaze subconsciously tried to catch the last glimmer of light in his vision.

The sound was completely inaudible; in the darkness, it was as if a door had suddenly been opened. Like lightning piercing through dark clouds, light poured in like threads of light.

At the end of the light, a figure stood there.

The sound returned slowly, like insects buzzing, and the ears heard more sounds than just the humming. Beyond the deep, guttural noise, like the simultaneous flapping of wings of a thousand bees, another sound grew increasingly clear.

The voice came from the figure in the light, the tone somewhat familiar, arrogant and haughty. It was like a young man who always had the upper hand, shouting with a domineering air.

"Itachi Uchiha! Get the hell out of here!!!"

The scene froze; everyone stared at the cave entrance, speechless. The person who walked in appeared to be Sasuke Uchiha, his handsome profile bathed in Nikko.

He was extremely audacious and arrogant, pointing directly at Itachi Uchiha, as if he already knew Itachi Uchiha was involved.

"That's Sasuke Uchiha? Just as Kisame Hoshigaki said, he seems to really hate Itachi-senpai." The youngest, Deidara, remarked with a sigh.

"Stop making sarcastic remarks, Scorpion, go and stop him," Konan said coldly.

"Without Sasori, can the Sealing Jutsu still hold?"

"If Itachi tries a little harder, he should be able to manage."

"Hmm." Itachi Uchiha said calmly, his eyes returning to the person at the cave entrance. With just one glance, he completely realized that the person was not Sasuke.

As for who was so bored as to impersonate Sasuke, he had no interest in knowing.

At this moment, only Sasori and Deidara were in their true forms inside the cave. Even if Itachi Uchiha wanted to do something, he lacked the strength. Since the other party could reach this place so easily, their strength was certainly not insignificant.

"Everyone else, complete the Sealing Jutsu as soon as possible!" Pain ordered.

"There's no chance anymore!"

Naruto's voice rang out, and his figure instantly appeared within the sealing array. He appeared silently and without anyone noticing how he appeared there so quickly.

Scorpion, who went to stop him, was caught in a four-on-one situation. Facing his parents, who Impure World Reincarnation, he was completely helpless and unable to fight back.

"Four Symbols Seal!"

Without hesitation, Naruto directly took Gaara into the Sealing Space, Four Symbols Seal forcefully blocked the progress of the Sealing Jutsu: Phantom Dragon Nine Seals.

With a snap, all the Chakra Threads broke, and the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path opened its eyes halfway before closing them again. The Akatsuki Organization's efforts over the past few days had been in vain, successfully intercepted by him.

There was a moment of silence as everyone's eyes turned to him.

"Who are you?" Itachi Uchiha could no longer remain silent and decisively questioned him.

"Me? Can't you tell?" Naruto glanced at everyone, then turned around under Pain's blood-dripping gaze, revealing a shameless Uchiha laugh.

"Hahaha!!!"

"I originally wanted to meet you as an ordinary person, but all I got in return was unfamiliarity and estrangement. Since you've asked so sincerely, then I'll mercifully tell you!"

"I am the last glory of the Uchiha, a man who never spouts false righteousness, Sasuke Uchiha reporting for duty!!"

I've been patient for a long time; the three-year period is over.

This Dragon King—no, this great one—is finally back! That damned Itachi Uchiha! The grudge from that door-knocking incident is almost here! I'm not done with you yet! You just wait! (Tiger's signature cracking voice!!)

Apart from Sasori, who was engaged in a fierce battle, all the members of the Akatsuki Organization turned their attention to Itachi Uchiha.

"Ahem." Itachi Uchiha couldn't stand it any longer and said, "You're not Sasuke."

"You think I'm not just because you say so?" Naruto spat at the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, his face covered by Sasuke's, and said with a look of disdain, "What kind of background do you have, a guy who wiped out your clan? What right do you have to talk about me like that?"

Itachi Uchiha's gaze was like a knife, fixed intently on him.

"What are you looking at?" Naruto remained calm, his pent-up anger finding nowhere to go, his eyes growing brighter with each insult. "How would it feel if you stabbed your parents in the body?"

"Do you feel sad when the knife is stuck in your ribs? What does it feel like when you pierce internal organs?"

"Shut up!" Itachi Uchiha's eyes flickered slightly. The hellish words were really hard for him to bear. Even though he had no doubt about the path he had chosen, he was still passively broken down.

Naruto's gaze grew increasingly fanatical, bordering on madness, as if he wanted to exact revenge for all the psychological trauma he had accumulated over the years. Now, he finally had the power to stand before Itachi Uchiha.

Furthermore, he is currently just a phantom and cannot cause him any real harm. The only way to get rid of his hellish pronouncements is to actively cut off communication.

But Naruto also knew very well that Itachi Uchiha, being such a proud person, would never do such a thing. The pride of the Uchiha was hidden deep within their bones, and they would never expose their weaknesses.

Even if he broke his teeth, he would swallow it down; there was absolutely no reason for him to spit it out. No matter how hellish Naruto's attacks were, Itachi Uchiha remained silent, as if he had entered a state of stillness.

Pain realized that the sealing attempt had failed, stared at Naruto for a while, and then interrupted.

"We are the gods who maintain order. You have interrupted the rituals of the gods, and you will surely pay the price."

"What?" Naruto laughed out loud, glancing at Sasori, who was being entangled and had revealed his true form, and then giving a sideways glance to Deidara, the only one who could move freely.

"So what can you do to me? Excuse me for being blunt, but I'm not targeting Itachi Uchiha; I mean everyone here is trash!"

"You are not Sasuke Uchiha; you possess the Chakra fluctuations of Tailed Beast." Pain remained calm. "Two-Tails? Eight-Tails? Or Nine-Tails?"

"Guess?" Naruto pointed at Deidara, "The order you're talking about, is it an order raised by a whore?"

Deidara shuddered and threw out Clay Bomb. In that instant, [Kurotsuchi Raiga's Funeral] activated, locking the clay and Deidara together.

Rule-based Ninjutsu leaves no room for resistance unless the opponent is a ninja far superior to him.

The white coffin slammed shut, trapping Deidara and the Clay Bomb together. With a deafening roar, the dead Raiga Kurosuki made his appearance amidst the muffled explosion.

Stepping through the billowing black smoke after the explosion, he led the black-robed figures that appeared out of nowhere behind him to lift the coffin, and then burst into tears.

[A Lament: Kurotsuchi Raiga's Dirge]

Raiga Kurosuki disregards everything and treats everyone equally. Whenever he appears, he's determined to put that person in a coffin, perfectly illustrating the saying: ominous in life, but incredibly fierce in death!

The scene fell silent as Naruto drew his Kusanagi Sword, revealing his boyish fangs for the first time.

"Whether it's Itachi Uchiha or you, this self-proclaimed god, I will come after you. Wait for me, you must wait for me, don't die so easily."

After saying that, Naruto's figure disappeared, and when he reappeared, he pierced Sasori's core body, which was being attacked from both sides by his parents. Just then, the Impure World Reincarnation ended.

Sasori's parents were freed from the Impure World Reincarnation, and in their final moments of dissipation, they recognized Sasori in the white light.

The three of them hugged each other tightly.
