Chapter 459
Karin, Jūgo, Suigetsu stood nearby, gazing at Sasuke's retreating figure, giving him some space to be alone.
"We have escaped the 'snake'..."
Sasuke murmured.
"From this moment forward, this squad... will be called the 'Eagle' Squad! The Eagles have only one goal... and that is revenge...!"
"I will destroy Konoha and kill Amakawa Akito!!"
Sasuke opened his eyes again.
A crimson Mangekyō Sharingan pattern appeared in the pupil!
Subsequently, the Eagle Squad joined "Akatsuki".
Following Obito's instructions, they went to Yunlei Gorge to capture the Eight-Tails.
On the small bridge.
Obito stood with Black Zetsu and White Zetsu.
"Itachi is dead, our thorn in the side has been removed... and the condition of 'not attacking Konoha's no longer holds..."
Obito turned around and looked at the latter.
Black Zetsu: "I've been waiting for so long..."
A full ten years.
Because of the terms of the deal with Itachi, we cannot take action against Konoha.
Despite his restless nights, he subtly persuaded Pain to order Pain to go with Kisame to Konoha to capture the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
That is, what happened three years ago.
But in the end, it all ended with Itachi showing weakness and letting the fight go...
At that time.
Apart from Black Zetsu and Obito Uchiha, no one realized that Itachi possessed the Susanoo, a powerful weapon.
Even fewer people knew that Itachi possessed the divine artifact, the "Yata Mirror".
Furthermore, unlike in the original work... in this world, Itachi did not seal Orochihime, so he did not use his full strength, and naturally did not reveal the "Totsuka Blade".
He did not use the "Sword of Kusanagi".
Therefore, at this point, Obito and Black and White Zetsu) still did not know Itachi's true trump card.
Ten years have passed.
With Itachi dead, our greatest threat has finally been eliminated!
Now we can attack Konoha at will!
"Most importantly... I also tamed Sasuke!"
Obito Uchiha his eyes.
The original plan was to train Itachi Uchiha to join forces against Nagato.
Now... Itachi is dead, Sasuke has become the pawn to replace him.
Everything is moving in a positive direction.
"What about Nagato?" Black Zetsu asked.
No one could have predicted it.
Nagato was actually persuaded by a 16-year-old child.
Obito, Black Zetsu, and White Zetsu felt their worldviews shattered; they had never been so utterly shocked.
Nagato had been Naruto Uzumaki's evil teachings, has now reformed.
And they intend to purge Xiao again.
Clearly... the time for a complete break has come.
"No need to rush."
Obito shook his head.
"Isn't next year almost here?"
White Zetsu: "Hmm?"
Black Zetsu: "You mean... Amakawa Akito wants to destroy Konoha?"
"That's right." Obito nodded. "If Amakawa Akito attacks Konoha, Nagato might go to help..."
At that time.
Amakawa Akito and Nagato fought to the death, both suffering heavy losses.
He could take the Rinnegan himself and also take away the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
Therefore, there is absolutely no need to worry about Nagato preparing to break with Nagato.
Just as Obito and Black Zetsu were preparing to discuss their next move...
A White Zetsu Clone appeared. "Something terrible has happened!"
It cried out.
"Amakawa Akito... is on TV... Anyway, you guys should come and take a look!!"
The distant Konoha.
Sage Fukasaku revealed that Jiraiya been captured.
At this moment, Tsunade was still unconscious.
Danzo took the seat of Acting Hokage.
"Amakawa Akito's strength far exceeds expectations..."
The Sage Fukasaku shook his head.
"Currently, there is probably no one in the entire Konoha Village, or even the entire ninja world, who can stand against him..."
In other words, the destruction of Konoha could very well become a reality.
Hearing Sage Fukasaku recount the battle.
Amakawa Akito defeated a powerful figure of the Sannin level with complete ease; it could be described as an absolute crushing defeat.
"How could this be...?"
Kakashi and Yamato, who had just fought Pain, frowned upon hearing this.
"In this situation, the only option is for Naruto to go to Mount Myōboku and diligently train to achieve 'Perfect Sage Mode'."
This was the only solution that Sage Fukasaku could come up with.
"Although the hope is slim, this is one of the last resorts."
As for the other final solution...
Only when Naruto releases the Eight Trigrams Seal within his body and unleashes the Nine-Tails will he have a chance to contend with Amakawa Akito.
"Perhaps... we can ask Pain for help..."
Sakura tried to speak.
"Because... Pain wasn't Naruto apprentice...?"
He's also a disciple of Lord Jiraiya; if you ask for his help...
Everyone nodded in agreement, recalling Pain's invincible strength.
"Amakawa Akito..."
Naruto Uzumaki clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
He was filled with grief and indignation, but there was nothing he could do.
Just as Naruto was about to shout something...
Aoba Yamashiro rushed in. "Something terrible has happened! Everyone... come quick!"
Seeing his extremely nervous expression...
Kakashi and the others left the room upon hearing the noise...
Soon...
The nations of the ninja world were all drawn to a live television broadcast.
The television program is called... "The Public Trial of Class A War Criminal Jiraiya".
The timer indicates the program will begin in 10 minutes.
At the same time, Obito, Sasuke, and others, Naruto Uzumaki, Kakashi...
People from different factions all sat around the television, watching the program begin.
Soon.
A figure was reflected in the television screen.
It was none other than the emperor of Amegakure, Amakawa Akito.
When he appeared on the television, Naruto Uzumaki clenched his fists involuntarily.
"I am the leader of the Amegakure Alliance, the Amegakure Emperor... Amakawa Akito."
Akito, dressed in a black trench coat, stood in a square.
"Now, let's begin the live broadcast... The public trial of Class A war criminal Jiraiya!"
In the center of the square.
There is a cross.
A figure was bound to it.
As the camera zoomed in, all the viewers could see the figure clearly.
Clearly, the man with the missing arm was Jiraiya than Jiraiya, one of the legendary Sannin!
380. The Amegakure Trials: I will destroy the evil regime of Konoha!
"This public trial, as the name suggests, is to publicly try the Class A war criminal Jiraiya."
The Akito looked around.
"As a war criminal who has been invading our Land of Rain for many years and recently infiltrated our country with the intention of assassinating our supreme leader, we will now hold a public trial broadcast live!"
Camera switching.
The camera begins to film the surroundings.
Hanzo of the Salamander, Asuka, Pakura, Ringo Ameyuri...
Wearing, Yamada...
The faces of the Amegakure, varying in strength, formed the court of judgment.
Around the courtroom were countless citizens of the Amegakure and the Land of Rain.
This live broadcast event was broadcast to the entire ninja world.
In other words... all countries can receive this live broadcast.
If any country cannot do so, then they have tampered with the broadcast, manually interfering with or blocking it; their intentions are as clear as day.
--For example, Konoha.
Before the live broadcast of the interrogation began.
