Chapter 136: The Drifting Otsutsuki Toneri
Shukaku: "???"
Nine-Tailed smiled without a word.
Only he and Naruto knew that with the amplification of this vast space, Naruto's Sage Mode not only saw a massive increase in power but also a corresponding surge in its duration.
Naruto was also very confident; he felt he could now contend with Six Paths.
He even felt that the average Six Paths level of power was no match for him at all.
Back then, Might Guy, upon opening the Eight Gates, almost kicked his way to the ending.
Was Six Paths Madara weak at that time?
Obviously not!
It was simply because the power Might Guy gained by sacrificing his life and his youth was too immense.
So powerful that even a transcendent Ninja like Six Paths was nearly kicked to death.
If that kick hadn't missed, Ōtsutsuki Kaguyawouldn't have had a chance to appear.
"Don't be complacent; we still need to work hard."
Naruto came into the space, saw Nine-Tailed's arrogant expression, and casually said, "Although our strength is formidable."
"But you must know, being invincible in this world doesn't mean there are no enemies from beyond."
"Remember, never set yourself up for... that thing!"
"That thing?"
"A secret!"
Nine-Tailed: "..."
Shukaku: "..."
"By the way, didn't you get information about Three-Tails? Why aren't you going to capture it?"
Nine-Tailed looked at Naruto, puzzled.
He remembered Naruto saying before that he would capture all the Tailed Beasts to manage the space for him.
Now, why didn't he have that inclination anymore?
"Do we really need to do such things ourselves?"
Naruto retorted, "What am I now?"
Nine-Tailed suddenly understood: "Got it!"
"You're just lazy."
"Nine-Tailed."
Naruto looked at Nine-Tailed gently, his voice soft: "I've noticed you've been a bit itchy lately; how about I help you loosen up your muscles and bones?"
Nine-Tailed's face was filled with horror, and he instinctively retreated a few steps.
Whenever Naruto showed that expression, it meant someone was about to suffer.
Clearly, this time, it was him who would suffer.
Oops.
He had teased too much.
Save me, save me, save me...
Nine-Tailed hurriedly winked at Shukaku.
Shukaku sneered, puffed out his chest, then quickly turned around, shouldered his hoe, and went to farm.
"I love farming, the land is so good~"
A tone learned from Naruto drifted over.
"Don't struggle; even if you scream yourself hoarse, no one will come to help you. Prepare to die, hehehehe!!"
The space vibrated.
Shukaku calmly wielded the hoe in his hand, the years tranquil, his face serene.
...
"This is the power of the Tenseigan."
In the Land of Rain,
Ōtsutsuki Toneri stood on a high place, spreading his arms, quietly enjoying the feeling of becoming stronger.
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki observed with cold eyes, somewhat surprised.
He had actually become so strong just by relying on a pair of inferior Byakugan.
By his estimation, he was not much weaker than himself now.
"Good!"
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki shook the red glowing fishing hook in his hand and smiled faintly.
He wasn't afraid of strong teammates, only of encountering incompetent ones.
Like Momoshiki.
Despite his immense strength, he seemed to have been cursed and was actually killed by three Ninja.
"Boruto."
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki felt a little annoyed internally.
If Momoshiki hadn't possessed that brat, he would have killed him long ago.
Did he really think Ōtsutsuki Urashiki wouldn't kill people?
And then there was Sasuke, like a persistent rash, following him even to the past.
Looking at the members of the Akatsuki Organization, Ōtsutsuki Urashiki breathed a sigh of relief.
With such a lineup, facing the current Konoha Village's forces should not be a big problem.
"How does it feel?"
"Like a god."
Toneri spoke truthfully: "This feeling is intoxicating."
If before he needed certain means to travel between the Ninja World and the Moon, now he could achieve it simply with the Tenseigan.
"Now, I'm not afraid of Uzumaki Naruto anymore."
Toneri smiled confidently: "Now, we can make our move."
"I only need Hyuga Hinata; you can divide the rest among yourselves."
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki snapped back to attention, his gaze falling on Nagato.
Nagato took a deep breath: "We've been ready for a long time. To be safe, I've brought all the members of the Akatsuki Organization."
"Hidan!"
"Here, here."
Hidan came jogging over, his scythe on his shoulder.
Nagato pointed to Hidan and introduced him: "This is Hidan. His strength is average, but he has a very powerful ability."
"Sacrifice, immortality."
Immortal?
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki was uninterested.
In this world, apart from the Ōtsutsuki Clan, who dared to speak of immortality?
What a joke!
Ōtsutsuki Toneri also had no interest.
He felt very inflated inside right now.
"He only needs one drop of the opponent's blood to easily kill them."
Hmm?
Ōtsutsuki Urashiki, Ōtsutsuki Toneri, and Zabuzaand others turned their gazes to him.
One drop of blood can kill the opponent?
That's so mystical!
Their gazes towards Hidan carried a hint of wariness.
Especially Ōtsutsuki Toneri and Ōtsutsuki Urashiki, whose internal alarm bells were ringing loudly.
"That's right."
Nagato was very satisfied with their expressions and said faintly: "So, to be safe, we need to try our best to get Uzumaki Naruto's blood during the battle."
"Only then can we be absolutely safe."
"Understood."
Zabuza nodded, while Deidara on the side idly played with the clay in his hand.
He wasn't interested in this kind of thing.
What he was most interested in was the art of explosion.
It was a pity that Ōnoki, that old man, didn't like him messing around in the Village.
"The Akatsuki Organization is actually that strong."
Rubbing his chin, Deidara developed a hint of curiosity about the Uzumaki Naruto he had never met.
If even such a powerful Akatsuki Organizationsuffered losses two or three times against him, how strong was this Uzumaki Naruto?
"This time, I'll go and see, and let him experience my art of explosion as well."
"Everything is ready."
"The Land of Wind is ready, and our Land of Rainis also ready."
"The power of two nations, giving their full effort."
Nagato smiled coldly, gritting his teeth: "This time, I will definitely make Uzumaki Naruto pay the price."
...
"Report!"
In the Hokage Office, Nara Shikaku, who was working, suddenly looked up and rubbed his temples helplessly.
"Uzumaki Naruto, this Daimyō, is truly idle; I'm almost exhausted like a dog."
"Speak, is there something urgent?"
Hmm!?
The Ninja reporting was startled, then quickly said: "According to intelligence, the Land of Rain and the Land of Wind have already begun to take action."
"A massive army is approaching!"
"Have they finally come?"
Nara Shikaku was not worried at all, raising an eyebrow, and said to Uchiha Izumi: "You go notify the others; I'll go notify Uzumaki Naruto."
"Okay!"
...
Not long after,
The Hokage Office was packed.
Naruto casually sat on a stool, quietly waiting for everyone to arrive.
Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru stood together.
"It seems war is coming."
Seeing this scene, Tsunade sighed: "But it seems I'm not of much use."
Hemophobia is almost incurable.
The others, upon hearing this, some were excited, some worried, and some remained silent.
People kept arriving.
Until the last one entered the Hokage Office, Naruto's spirit lifted, and he sat up straight...
