In the instant Nagato, Konan, and the others fell silent, Jiraiya found an opening and stretched out his hand toward Obito and Zetsu in the distance.
"Universal Pull!"
Empowered by immense chakra, he instantly seized Black Zetsu and Obito.
Before the two could react, they were violently dragged to Jiraiya's side.
However, Obito activated Intangibility at the final moment, while Black Zetsu detached from White Zetsu, fell to the ground, and vanished as he melded into the earth.
These two were masters of escape. They had spent their entire lives studying how to run away.
Black Zetsu fled directly, leaving Obito behind.
Obito was also preparing to enter his alternate dimension and flee, but Jiraiya hesitated and chose not to pursue him.
He had come this time for Nagato and Konan. Obito and Black Zetsu were as slippery as loaches; capturing them would take considerable effort, and there was no guarantee he could catch them.
To capture Obito, he would need to carefully prepare a trap.
"Zabuza Momochi, rogue ninja of the Mist Village, and Kakuzu, rogue ninja of the Waterfall Village?"
"Zabuza, the Executioner's Blade in your hand is Konoha property."
Jiraiya turned his gaze toward the other two members of the Akatsuki.
The Hidden Mist Village was now part of Konoha, so naturally, its ninja swords were Konoha property.
From a certain perspective, Zabuza was also a rogue ninja of Konoha.
Kakuzu went without saying. He was an old rogue ninja who had relied on secret techniques to collect bounties for many years.
"..."
The two Akatsuki members fell silent. With Jiraiya's invincible aura, neither of them had any thought of fighting him.
Konan took a deep breath and looked at Jiraiya. What should they do now?
"Nagato, have you made your choice?"
Jiraiya had actually already sensed
