Chapter 248
Both are space-time Dōjutsu.
Fugaku Uchiha, who possesses a complete pair of eyes, would certainly have the advantage.
His absorption rate was far faster than that of someone with only one eye...
After Fugaku Uchiha also left the scene.
The figures of Black Zetsu and White Zetsu appeared.
White Zetsu: "I didn't expect Fugaku Uchiha to refuse. His ambition is no less than Obito's."
"No..."
Black Zetsu shook his head.
"Fugaku Uchiha was a pure Uchiha. He did this less for the sake of his clan and more for the sake of his child."
Fugaku Uchiha appears to be very stern.
His strict family education was renowned far and wide.
But in essence, she loved her two sons the most and was proud of her eldest son.
Choosing to accept Itachi's proposal meant knowing full well that it was a lose-lose trap set by the Konoha High Command.
But he still went ahead without hesitation.
Why is that?
Of course... it's out of a father's selfless love for his child.
White Zetsu: "Then what do we do?"
Black Zetsu: "Let's just wait and see... Will it be a draw, one side die, or both perish? Let's wait and see..."
The following morning.
Akito donned a brand-new trench coat and wore the latest iteration of the Land of Snow · Chakra Armor.
After another six months of development.
The technology of Chakra Armor has taken another step forward.
It's already very close to the various enhanced, body-hugging suits worn by heroes in superhero comics.
He carried a brand-new katana weighing 8 tons on his back.
The Akito then prepared to depart.
Before me stood the crowd seeing me off.
The Akito prepared to attend the Feast at Hongmen alone.
"From the very beginning, I have never been afraid of the enemy."
"The truly strong fight against the even stronger."
"A man should always fight even when he knows he's doomed... Besides, I've never failed."
The Akito donned a trench coat and issued a declaration.
"I cannot back down, nor can I afford to back down. I believe in myself, therefore I will win."
With absolute power, crush all conspiracies and schemes.
If we don't even have the courage to change the world, overthrow the old system, and shatter the theory of bloodline, how can we talk about realizing our dreams?
After saying that.
The Akito stepped on the air and burst into the air, flying rapidly into the distance.
Everyone watched this scene in silence, offering prayers in their hearts...
Konohagakure)
The atmosphere in the village today is quite lively.
It is said that Amegakure, the leader and de facto ruler of Amakawa Akito, is coming to visit Konoha.
The two sides will discuss some diplomatic issues.
The villagers, unaware of the specifics, discussed the matter amongst themselves.
At this time.
A beautiful figure appeared on the bustling commercial street.
She had flowing long black hair, fiery red lips, and skin that was fair to the point of being pale.
Walking down the street, I immediately attracted a lot of attention.
That overly glamorous... no, more like a bewitching aura, was something you couldn't see in any other woman.
A wicked smile played on his lips.
The earrings jingled softly.
She... paraded through the streets.
"What a beautiful young lady..."
"A beautiful face I've never seen before..."
"Are you a foreign tourist?"
The villagers were talking about it.
Even the ninjas of Konoha couldn't help but be drawn to it.
Call...
The wind blew by.
Her beautiful hair danced in the air.
She raised her slender fingers and brushed them through her bangs.
The alluring, enigmatic expression, half-smiling, half-serious, combined with the sharp gaze, created a scene as beautiful as a painting.
Just as someone was about to approach and strike up a conversation...
Boom!
An explosion was heard in the distant sky.
A black line streaked across the sky at an extremely fast speed.
Before anyone could react, the dark figure suddenly bent and then slammed into the ground.
Like a shooting star falling, it landed silently.
Quiet... as if a feather had fallen.
As the black aura spread, Akito landed safely.
Call...
The wind rose again, blowing the black trench coat.
Akito stood there, forming a scene that seemed like a partnership... or perhaps a couple's outfit, with the alluring woman in black beside him.
Two scenes that brought shock after one another.
It quieted down the once bustling commercial street.
People blinked, looking at the Akito had suddenly arrived with some confusion.
"..."
Upon arriving in Konoha, Akito casually surveyed his surroundings and confirmed his landing location.
Then, he saw the alluring woman beside him.
"You..."
The Akito squinted, scrutinizing her.
"It looks somewhat familiar."
"Lord Akito, it's a pleasure to meet you."
The alluring woman bowed and paid her respects.
As the address was uttered, whispers began to fill the street.
From the way he addressed people, many villagers and ninjas present guessed that the man was Akito.
"You know me?" the Akito asked.
"Yes, I am a resident of the Land of Rain, so of course I know of your great achievements, sir."
The woman stood up and smiled.
Alluring, but also... terrifying.
"Um..."
The Akito nodded.
"If you don't mind the trouble, why don't you come with me for a look around? We could meet with some Konoha High Command. We happen to need a diplomatic representative for this purpose. What do you say?"
"It is my great honor."
The alluring woman immediately nodded in agreement.
Then, escorted by the gradually gathering Konoha Ninja, the two headed to the Hokage Building.
Dark place.
In the shadows of the alley, Aburame Ryoma, who had been following the alluring woman, frowned.
"Orochimaru... what is he up to?!"
No, that's not the point.
We must contact Danzo immediately... Amakawa Akito is here...
176. The Akito's determination
A dozen minutes later...
Konoha High Command were present.
The Third Hokage: Hiruzen Sarutobi, Shimura Danzō, Utatane Koharu, Mitokado Homura.
The four men greeted Akito with solemn expressions.
"Akito Excellency, you have come from afar..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi forward, a smile on his face.
As the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face.
The Akito looked around.
This is the conference room in the Hokage Building.
Black curtains, a spacious area, a huge table.
Many famous scenes took place here.
"Let's skip the formalities."
Akito interrupted Hiruzen Sarutobi's rambling.
Then, Orochimaru pulled out a chair, and Akito sat down.
"Who is this...?"
To divert attention from the awkward situation.
