Taking someone away right in front of the Akatsuki-just who was this kid?

Wu Chiwu knew Black Zetsu Jue was only injured, not completely dead.

If he manages to slip away, it will be much harder to catch him next time.

His face darkened, and he prepared to continue his attack.

"What do you want to do?"

Pain and Konan flew directly between Black Zetsu and Wu Chiwu, blocking him in one fell swoop.

"You guys."

"It's best not to block the way."

Wu Chiwu's lips curled up slightly, and the usual playful glint in his eyes disappeared.

He raised his eyelids and stared straight at the two people in front of him.

As for what the remaining members of Akatsuki were going to do, he had no interest in caring at all.

He has only one thought right now.

Kill Black Zetsu quickly.

He neither had the time nor the energy to let Black Zetsu live for another thousand or eight hundred years.

We need to kill that guy who's been plotting everything from behind the scenes as soon as possible.

Everything else can wait.

A ninja who can manipulate space is someone that no ordinary person can stop if he wants to move.

Besides, Obito Uchiha, who also knows Space-Time Ninjutsu, is probably still on his way to Sunagakure right now.

His only concern right now is to prevent Black Zetsu from suddenly escaping.

That would be a real headache if it were truly hidden.

At this moment, Wu Chiwu's soul was completely bound to Black Zetsu.

Little did he know how far his demeanor had led people to misinterpret his actions.

The Akatsuki members around him all turned to look at him.

They all saw clearly that cold, dismissive attitude.

That kid's pretty arrogant!

Are you just treating them like they don't exist?

Every single one of them is an S-rank missing-nin!

That's incredibly arrogant! They really think too highly of themselves!

The expressions on the faces of several people changed.

"Mr. Itachi."

Kisame Hoshigaki touched Samehada and said in a low voice.

This kid is way too arrogant.

How dare you say that in front of so many people?

Has he forgotten whose territory he's standing on?

Looking at the young-looking and relatively unknown Wu Chiwu in front of him, Kisame Hoshigaki was completely baffled.

What's going on in this guy's head?

Uchiha Itachi, who was next to Kisame Hoshigaki, didn't respond.

He simply looked indifferently at Wu Chiwu across from him.

Ninjutsu is quite rare, and its techniques are novel.

But compared to Pain and his crew, they're probably still no match.

Besides, he's too impulsive.

If you're overconfident, you won't be able to see the road ahead clearly.

Having gone to great lengths to infiltrate the Akatsuki, they shouldn't have revealed themselves so easily.

Not to mention, it happened in front of so many people.

Does he think he has the ability to walk away unscathed?

Uchiha Itachi sighed softly as he recalled the information he had gathered within Akatsuki over the past few years.

Perhaps it's because Wu Chiwu is somehow connected to the person who once saved him.

Looking at this white-haired ninja, he felt inexplicably less distant.

I don't really want to see him fail here.

But things have escalated to this point; surrounded by six Akatsuki members, how could he possibly survive?

Although one of them is already down, that one wasn't cut out for fighting anyway.

But the remaining few are no pushovers.

Meanwhile, Wu Chiwu, who was being watched by a group of people, wasn't thinking nonsense.

He quickly estimated the location and positioned Body Flicker Technique in front of Black Zetsu, not far away.

Next, reduce the distance between the starting point and the landing point.

In the blink of an eye, the person disappeared right under Pain and Konan's noses.

Space-Time Ninjutsu?

Pain and Konan were both stunned as they watched Wu Chiwu vanish into thin air.

They hadn't even noticed the slightest fluctuation of Chakra just now.

That's why we weren't on guard at all.

This guy actually...

The two suppressed their surprise and quickly regained their composure.

"Universal Pull!"

Pain extended his right hand, aiming it at Wu Chiwu, who had moved to a different location.

This is the power of the Rinnegan; it allows one to forcefully pull a locked target to their side.

Pain kept his sights firmly on Wu Chiwu was not far away.

Beside him, Konan also Wu Chiwu.

"Paper Shuriken!"

Unfortunately, it's too late to act now.

Wu Chiwu's hand was already on Black Zetsu's shoulder.

He pulled suddenly.

Before Black Zetsu could react, he was forcibly pulled off the wall.

Wu Chiwu's bright blue eyes were smiling as he casually watched Konan and Pain attack.

The sharp piece of paper was reflected in his eye.

Between breaths, I could feel the pulling force on my body.

Wu Chiwu's lips curved into a smile, and he said in a relaxed tone.

"He's gone."

"Everyone."

The words had barely left his mouth.

Wu Chiwu and Black Zetsu simply vanished right before everyone's eyes.

All that was left was a pile of scraps of paper from those who arrived late.

Finally, Konan's piece of paper quietly floated to the ground.

It's like telling the people here that someone has been here recently.

There was silence in the cave for a while.

A long time passed.

The group of people finally recovered from what had just happened.

They just ran away like that?

In front of five remaining Akatsuki members, he just left without a single hair falling?

Did they also grab one of Xiao's people when they left?

This sudden ending left everyone completely bewildered.

Unexpectedly, Wu Chiwu acted so swiftly, without hesitation for even half a second, grabbing the person and immediately disappearing.

In the end, all that was left for them was silence and a few breaths of cold air.

"..."

Kisame Hoshigaki remained silent for a moment, then clicked his tongue twice.

"I really didn't expect that kid to just run away like that."

"And in front of so many of us..."

Kisame.

Uchiha Itachi interrupted Kisame Hoshigaki.

He could already tell that Pain's face wasn't red anymore.

But to be fair, that kid is actually pretty good.

He actually managed to escape.

Just a hair's breadth away, Pain's Universal Pull would have caught him.

Fortunately, he didn't continue arguing.

A hint of approval flashed in Uchiha Itachi's eyes.

He never imagined that anyone could escape so easily from the clutches of six members of Akatsuki.

It's the kind of skin that wasn't even scratched.

That's truly eye-opening.

Only a ninja like Wu Chiwu, who can manipulate space, could achieve this level of skill.

"A space-manipulation type ninja."

Scorpion fiddled with the puppet strings in his hand, his words tinged with interest.

"No wonder it was so fast."

"This skill is almost like cheating."

He's becoming increasingly interested in Wu Chiwu's unique Ninjutsu.

They slipped away from Pain so easily?

That's interesting!

If we could turn him into a puppet, the finished product would be absolutely amazing.

Konan took a few steps forward and arrived at the base of the wall that had been destroyed by strange energy.

She bent down and picked up the piece of paper.

The Chakra energy and sharpness on the white paper had long since disappeared, and it lay peacefully in Konan's palm.

"He really ran away."

Konan lowered her eyes and said something that was hard to decipher.

Unexpectedly, this white-haired ninja escaped from her and Pain's combined attack so easily.

They're running so easily.

Konan suddenly fell into deep thought.

On the other side, her teammate Pain was also taken aback.

This new member of Akatsuki turned out to be a space-time ninja.

No wonder they were so confident from the start; it turns out they had a solid foundation.

However, Pain didn't let that shock linger for long.

There are other problems to consider.

For example, what exactly was Wu Chiwu planning when he secretly infiltrated the Akatsuki?

Why did he suddenly turn on Black Zetsu?

Will this person ultimately hinder my plans?

This whole mess made Pain frown.

After a long while, he slowly began to speak.

"Now, besides capturing the Tailed Beast, Akatsuki also needs to prioritize this person."

"Don't let him ruin our plans."

The remaining Akatsuki members all nodded.

They also wanted to meet this eccentric Wu Chiwu.

I never expected there was someone like this lurking in the Akatsuki.

This is getting more and more interesting!

Several people were having the same thought in their minds.
