From appearing on Sasuke's side to watch the show, to later rushing to Naruto's side to severely injure Obito and scare away Konan.
Finally, he rushed to Jiraiya's location to eliminate Pain. Adam had calculated the timing precisely.
If he hadn't calculated the timing, with his speed, he could have gone through all three battlefields and dealt with all enemies in less than twenty minutes.
His purpose in doing this was also very simple.
It was to deliberately demonstrate his value, making his actions seem more significant in the eyes of the Konoha Ninja and Tsunade.
Otherwise, if he had easily resolved everything in a flash, his help would have seemed worthless.
This is the same principle as seeing a Doctor.
If a Doctor spotted the problem as soon as you fell ill and cured your disease with a simple prescription, you would feel your illness was nothing, the Doctor's medical skills were nothing, and it wouldn't even be worth paying much for the consultation.
However, if your illness had reached the point where it was about to kill you, and then the Doctor figured out what was wrong and used various expensive medicinal ingredients to save you, you would undoubtedly consider this Doctor a miracle worker and willingly pay a lot for the consultation.
In fact, if he didn't have a bottom line, Adam could have even waited until Konoha was destroyed by Akatsuki before making his move. That way, he could have gained the maximum benefit from Tsunade.
However, he wasn't too worried that Akatsuki would immediately launch a counterattack after he disappeared.
His previous attacks were not light. Even with Karin's treatment, Sasuke couldn't recover that quickly, and Obito's bones were basically shattered throughout his body, barely sustained by Zetsu's cells.
As for Nagato's Six Paths of Pain, they were all annihilated. To recover his strength, he would have to return and create new Six Paths of Pain.
The only one unharmed was Konan, oh, and Zetsu, who was hiding behind the scenes.
But it didn't matter. Not to mention that Konoha wasn't completely without fighting power, just before he left, he had already detected many powerful Chakra fluctuations in the distance heading towards the Village.
Among them, some familiar Chakra fluctuations belonged to Might Guy and Lee, among others.
It was likely that Tsunade had sent out a distress message, and the Five Kage joint squad, specifically formed to capture Akatsuki, had arrived.
If, even with all this, something unexpected still happened, then he could only say he was sorry. He was not a saint; he could only seek benefits while maintaining his own bottom line; he wasn't there to be a babysitter.
"There are still too few people in the Naruto World. Saving Konoha didn't earn much Justice Value."
Returning to the Marvel Universe, Adam checked the progress bar of Justice Value on his panel and found that it had only increased by a small segment, causing him to sigh.
Saving people in the Marvel Universe earned Justice Value, and naturally, saving people in the Naruto World did too.
However, compared to Marvel's population of six or seven billion, the entire population of the Naruto World combined was only a few tens of millions.
As for the number of people he saved in Konoha Village today, not counting the Ninja on the outer defenses and those on missions, there were actually fewer than ten thousand Ninja and villagers in the Village combined.
So naturally, there wasn't much Justice Value.
He estimated that even if he stopped Ōtsutsuki Kaguya's Infinite Tsukuyomi and saved the entire Naruto World, the Justice Value might not even be enough to unlock a new protagonist template.
Looking at it this way, Marvel was still better. Events destroying a country were common, events destroying the entire Earth were not few, and even events destroying the entire Universe occasionally happened once or twice.
Anyway, as long as he could survive, he would definitely not lack Justice Value.
Not long after Adam disappeared, Might Guy and other experts from the other four Villages finally arrived at Konoha.
"You're finally here."
At the first battlefield, Tsunade, who had rushed to support with Shizune, saw Darui communicating with Kakashi and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The Five Kage joint squad for capturing Akatsuki was composed of experts dispatched by the Five Hidden Villages. Its leader was Darui, the Third strongest expert of Hidden Cloud Village, the Fourth Raikage's guard, the sole inheritor of the Third Raikage's Black Lightning Release, and also possessed the Storm Release Bloodline Limit.
"Hokage-sama, it's our responsibility that Konoha has become like this. Leave the rest to us!"
After Darui learned about the situation and the intelligence on Akatsuki's members from Kakashi, he led a group of experts towards the large mountain that Adam had pointed to.
For over a month, they hadn't even found a trace of Akatsuki, and Konoha had been attacked by Akatsuki, making their joint squad a laughing stock.
Now that Akatsuki was severely wounded, they naturally couldn't miss this opportunity.
"This time, we owe a great debt to Adam. Otherwise, not only would Naruto have been captured, but Konoha would also have suffered a fatal blow."
After the joint squad left, Jiraiya said to Tsunade.
Tsunade nodded with a solemn expression:
"I still underestimated Akatsuki's strength. If we can't capture them this time, I will initiate another Five Kage Summit to gather all the power of the Ninja World to deal with them."
"That's a good idea, but have you thought about what to do when Adam comes tomorrow?"
Jiraiya suddenly chuckled.
Tsunade immediately covered her forehead upon hearing this:
"Sigh, give it to him, give him everything. Whatever Ninjutsu he wants, just give it to him. After all, he saved all of Konoha."
Adam's value had been fully demonstrated in this Akatsuki attack. He was absolutely an ace among aces. Even if it meant using all Ninjutsu to win him over, it was completely worth it.
"Hokage-sama, both Advisor-sama have died. They died in their homes."
Just then, an Anbu appeared instantly before Tsunade and Jiraiya.
Complex expressions immediately appeared on Tsunade and Jiraiya's faces.
The two Advisor had always balanced the Naruto's power. Their deaths weren't necessarily a bad thing, but they were still Konoha's Elder and had made many contributions to Konoha; they were their predecessors. To say they weren't sad at all would be false.
"It seems Sasuke did it."
While various post-war cleanup operations were underway in Konoha, things were also busy in a distant cave.
"It failed. The Ninjutsu wasn't released, and Tendo was also eliminated.
Zetsu, your intelligence was inaccurate!"
Nagato panted heavily, looking sternly at Zetsu, who had emerged from underground.
Zetsu smiled and walked towards Nagato:
"There's nothing I can do. Even I can't guarantee that intelligence will always be accurate."
Nagato's brows furrowed. He sensed something amiss about Zetsu.
"Nagato, are you alright!"
Just then, countless paper fragments poured in from the cave entrance, gathered around Nagato, and transformed into the figure of a woman.
It was Konan, who, worried about Nagato's main body after Obito's escape, had rushed back in time.
And Zetsu, seeing this, stopped his approach.
With Konan protecting him, he had almost no chance to possess and control Nagato.
At the same time, a vortex appeared in the cave, and Obito, along with Sasuke, also returned here.
However, when he saw Konan, he was clearly somewhat surprised.
He had originally thought that Konan would surely be captured by Adam after his escape, but he hadn't expected her to have escaped back.
