The Accountability Process Begins: First, Seal the Ninja World's Chakra System! Simulate Chakra and Unseal Otsutsuki Kaguya!
Let alone hold anyone accountable.
More importantly, even if they found him, without solid evidence, they would not dare arrest him openly as long as he kept his livestream running.
That was right!
They would not dare!
Clinging to that hope, most factions chose not to end their own lives and be done with it.
They chose to wait and see!
[Sengoku: The Five Elders and the Celestial Dragons probably won't escape this time. Sigh. A new era is coming to the Pirate World!]
[Empress: Hahaha... Thank you, SCP Foundation, for avenging me. I, Hancock, will never forget this kindness!]
[Monkey D. Dragon: It's time for the final battle to overthrow the World Government.]
[Jaygarcia Saturn Saint: Leaving aside whether the SCP Foundation has the Pirate World's coordinates, so what if it does?]
[Without evidence, arresting people rashly would go against its own principles.]
[Empress: You're killing me! Now you Celestial Dragons care about evidence? Since when have you ever cared about evidence?]
[Monster King Orochi: I agree with Jaygarcia Saturn Saint. If the SCP Foundation arrests people without evidence, how will it command anyone's respect afterward?]
[Tatsumaki: You don't need evidence to arrest monsters, much less kill them!]
[Aizen: Hahaha... That reminds me of a saying. When I slaughter someone's entire family, I have my reasons. When someone merely looks at me, their crime is unforgivable.]
[Miko: @Master, they're a bunch of hypocrites!]
[Aizen: Exactly. Nothing but hypocrites.]
[Orochimaru: Can I volunteer to participate in the research?]
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: ...]
[Jiraiya: ...]
[Tsunade: ...]

While everyone was debating in the livestream chat, Dr. Calvin spoke up at just the right moment. "I've seen your comments!"
"As the person in charge of this operation to hold people accountable, I need to make something clear!"
"First, your worlds' coordinates might be hidden from other factions, but to the Foundation, they're no secret at all."
Dr. Calvin's words made everyone watching the livestream blanch. The hope they had been clinging to shattered.
The reason they had felt free to say whatever they wanted in the chat
was that their worlds' coordinates were a secret to everyone else. No matter what they said, they had never needed to worry about retaliation.
But things were different now.
The SCP Foundation had the coordinates of every world. Who knew whether it would make them public?
They would have to watch what they said from now on.
And those were just the ordinary viewers. The organizations on the accountability list were terrified beyond words.
Their greatest source of reassurance had collapsed.
With their worlds' coordinates exposed, they had nothing left to rely on but appeals to morality.
Their lives now rested on a word from the SCP Foundation.
All they could do was hope the SCP Foundation followed its own rules and would not come after them without evidence.
At the same time, they silently ran through everything they had done, wondering whether they had cut all ties to the incident.
Then Dr. Calvin's next words smashed their last line of defense.
On the livestream, Dr. Calvin took a sip of coffee and slowly addressed the camera. "We at the SCP Foundation have never been bound by many rules."
"Don't think you can pressure the SCP Foundation with moral arguments."
"Of course..."
"So you'll know exactly why you're being punished,"
"we'll present the evidence publicly through the livestream!"
Dr. Calvin paused, then continued. "With that, I declare the accountability operation officially underway!"
"The first targets are Madara Uchiha, Black Zetsu, and Danzo of the Ninja World!"
"The Mobile Task Force will proceed to the Ninja World."
"They will uproot all three targets and their factions and bring them back to base! The Mobile Task Force will broadcast the entire process live!"
"Let this be a warning to every viewer!"
As Dr. Calvin spoke, he slowly disappeared from the livestream. In his place appeared one streamlined White Emperor Battleship after another...
They were passing through the Great Wormhole Bridge, heading straight for the Ninja World!
Accountability Begins: Sealing the Ninja World's Chakra System and Unsealing Kaguya Ōtsutsuki!
(First update. Please subscribe! Your support keeps me writing. The next update should be around six. At least five updates today. Thank you all for your support!)
The viewers' feelings grew complicated when they saw the vast fleet of silver-white, futuristic battleships filling the screen.
They had known the SCP Foundation possessed many Containment Objects and unfathomable power!
But they had never seen that power with their own eyes.
Some unrealistic hopes had lingered in their hearts. The moment they saw those battleships bearing down on the Ninja World, though, their last hopes
were snuffed out.
The factions and organizations facing punishment were especially distraught. They regretted their actions so bitterly that they wished they could go back and slap themselves across the face.
What had possessed them to order an expedition into the Demon Slayer World?
They had brought this disaster on themselves.
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: The SCP Foundation is finally showing its strength. I only hope it doesn't involve the innocent. @Danzo, prepare to surrender. Don't drag Konoha into this!]
[Danzo: Of course! I've gathered everyone involved in this incident. Konoha Village will not be implicated!]
[Pain: @Danzo, I never thought much of you before. But if you're willing to face the consequences, then you're a man after all!]
[Ōnoki: What worries me now is that Madara Uchiha might resist. He's not someone you can reason with!]
[Mei Terumi: Who is this Black Zetsu? I've never heard of him!]
[Pain: @Mei Terumi, he's a member of Akatsuki. I always thought Black Zetsu and White Zetsu were one person. I never imagined they were two! He hid himself too well. Even now, I can't see through him!]
[Empress: @Five Elders! Get your necks ready for the chopping block. Your faction will be next!]
[Jaygarcia Saturn Saint: We'll see who comes out on top. Besides, before the SCP Foundation arrives, I'll wipe out Amazon Lily.]
[Sengoku: @Jaygarcia Saturn Saint. Think about the consequences. Cooperate with the research, and you might have a chance to survive. Keep resisting, and you'll wish you were dead.]
[Monkey D. Dragon: @Jaygarcia Saturn Saint. You don't honestly think the SCP Foundation, with all its Containment Objects, lacks ways to deal with you, do you?]
[Kaido: Now this should be entertaining!]

While viewers were posting comments, the battleships on the livestream passed through the Great Wormhole Bridge and arrived at the Ninja World.
Then everyone in the Ninja World witnessed a sight they would never forget.
Massive silver-white battleships pierced the atmosphere. Wreathed in flames from the friction of their descent, they slowly came down from beyond the sky with the weight of mountains bearing down on the world!
The unseen pressure made it hard for anyone to breathe.
They knew the SCP Foundation would only hold factions and individuals who had broken its rules accountable. But faced with such an enormous fleet,
they could not help feeling a fear that reached into their souls.
Some civilians and weak-willed ninjas were so terrified that they dropped to their knees before the battleships.
Once the silver-white White Emperor Battleships had descended, a vast, resonant synthetic voice echoed in the minds of everyone in the Ninja World. "In accordance with Foundation regulations, all supernatural powers in the Ninja World will be temporarily sealed!"
"This seal will last one hour."
"It will cause no harmful effects!"
"Please remain calm!"
As the synthetic voice echoed across the Ninja World, a white shock wave spread outward from the White Emperor Flagship at the head of the fleet.
Wherever it passed, all Ninjutsu, Chakra, eye techniques, and Kekkei Genkai were sealed.
At that moment, the Chakra-based supernatural system established in the Ninja World since the time of Kaguya Ōtsutsuki was temporarily sealed at a conceptual level!
The sight sent chills down the spines of everyone watching the livestream.
They had assumed that however powerful the SCP Foundation was, a fight would be inevitable when it moved against the Ninja World.
Casualties would surely follow.
Clearly, they had been naive.
The SCP Foundation had simply sealed an entire world's supernatural system. In an instant, everyone in the Ninja World lost the ability to resist.
That power was utterly beyond belief.
They had never seen anything like it before. They had never even imagined it!
Was this the SCP Foundation's true strength?
It was terrifying!
After conceptually sealing the Ninja World's supernatural power known as Chakra, countless space shuttles poured from the battleships like a swarm of bees and sped toward their targets!
At the same time, the livestream split into two screens.
One showed the underground location of Madara Uchiha and Black Zetsu. The other showed a small hill outside Konoha Village, where a bandaged Danzo waited with a group of Root ninjas to surrender.
"Danzo, you violated Foundation regulations!"
After a white battleship descended over Konoha Village, it immediately announced in a synthetic voice, "The Mobile Task Force has been ordered to take you into custody and bring you back to base to assist in research on the Flesh Heavenly Principle Orb."
"Do any of you object?"
Hearing the synthetic voice, Danzo slowly replied, "No. But please don't harm anyone innocent!"
"Of course!"
As the synthetic voice sounded again, beams of light shot from the battleship and enveloped Danzo and the others, drawing them toward its interior.
Of course, Danzo's Root was not the only group in Konoha Village involved.
Some independent adventurers from the village had also taken part in exploring the Demon Slayer World. Though they had all been reduced to ashes,
Jiang Chen had ordered that their families and relatives be held accountable as well.
In Konoha Village alone, nearly three or four hundred people were targeted.
"What right do you have to arrest me? I never went to the Demon Slayer World. My brother went on his own!"
"Village chief, save me! I really didn't know my father went to explore the Demon Slayer World."
"Help! I don't want to be taken away!"
"Everyone, let's fight the SCP Foundation! If we're going down, they're coming with us!"
"..."
As the SCP Foundation began making arrests, pleas for mercy, curses, and cries rang out across Konoha Village...
But no matter how they struggled,
they could not change their fate. Under the terrified eyes of Konoha Village's residents, white light pulled them toward the battleships hovering overhead.
Hiruzen Sarutobi stood in the Konoha office, watching figures drawn toward the silver-white battleships by beams of white light and listening to their cries...
