Live stream of Naruto's Nine Gates Prison, Uchiha explodes

The Akatsuki's ability to maintain high-speed movement while attacking various Jinchuriki, and also to fly briefly, did not come from anyone else, but from Deidara, one of the few Akatsuki members who possessed the ability to fly and could unconditionally carry others.

Furthermore, Deidara not only needed to transport people, but also to guard the borders of the five great nations to prevent them from receiving intelligence about the attack on the Jinchuriki.

"This is such a hassle..."

Deidara tied up an intelligence agent and looked at the sunset with boredom.

"I wonder when they'll finish..."

……

"Dust Release - Particle Style: Detachment Technique!"

Onoki's fingers flew, and in an instant, he used Dust Release again. A dazzling white light burst forth, engulfing everything around him.

Onoki, with his sharp eyes, noticed that his Dust Release had hit a clay bird, and immediately became so angry that he puffed out his beard and glared at it.

"So these are the little birds that Deidara made for you. I was wondering why you guys could suddenly fly—where did you go?!"

As Onoki was talking, he suddenly realized that Uchiha Itachi, who had just clashed with him with ninjutsu, was gone. Looking down, he saw that Itachi had already run into the water that Kisame had released and was suppressing the Five-Tails with Kisame.

"Don't run!!"

……

The Land of Water, a certain Puppet Forest.

"The Crimson Secret Technique - The Manipulation of One Hundred Machines!"

Scorpion escaped from Hiruko and used his signature technique—Hundred Machine Manipulation.

The surrounding trees suddenly rose from the ground and transformed into puppets, launching an attack on Yu Gao.

Among the many puppets, Yu Gao is like a lonely ship, about to sink in this raging storm.

"...There's no other way, let's make a scene!"

Utaka gritted his teeth, entered the Tailed Beast Chakra state, and sprayed out a large amount of acid.

The acid immediately rendered the puppets immobile upon hitting their joints, and Scorpion could tell at a glance that these puppets were useless.

Joints exposed to acid are directly corroded, leaving no room for repair.

"It looks like this is going to be a long battle, Mother-in-law."

Despite the heavy losses suffered by the puppets, Scorpion maintained his composed smile.

"Hahaha... Trying to outlast a puppeteer? That's interesting."

Chiyo smiled as she looked at the heavily damaged human puppet.

"Don't be afraid, my dear grandson. After this battle, Grandma will turn this Jinchūriki in front of you into a puppet, and then use it to turn Rasa and those Phoenix Shadows into puppets!"

……

Takikage Village

"what!"

"Ugh!"

"Help!"

Takikage Village is easy to defend but difficult to attack; it's not that it can't be taken.

With the help of Kakuzu, a former Takigakure ninja, the two of them stormed into Takigakure with almost no effort and killed most of the villagers.

"Hahaha—sandwich-filled mulberry!"

As Hidan plunges the scythe into his body, a large number of ninjas will fall.

Kakuzu didn't even look at them, casually using the Earth Grudge to rip out the hearts of those around him, and then casually tossing them aside.

Why would he need to put the heart of an opponent who could be killed in one move back into his body?

Finally, Kakuzu came to Ayumu's side, his expression fierce.

"Where is the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki?"

Bu She smiled.

"I'd rather die than tell, you traitorous ninja from Takikage Village!"

Kakuzu remained silent, but simply pierced his heart with his hand.

"What are you pretending for? Who do you think you are, pointing fingers at your master Kakuzu like that..."

"Furthermore, it wasn't me who betrayed Takikage Village, it was your Takikage Village that betrayed me."

Kakuzu spoke very calmly, but this one sentence contained his special feelings for the village that he had accumulated over the decades.

But soon, Kakuzu's expression changed.

"This heart—is sealed with a magical formula?!"

Meanwhile, Feng, who was in the distance, felt a lightness all over her body as her chakra resumed its flow, and the house could no longer hold her back.

"Hey!"

With a burst of strength, Feng broke open the door and rushed out, ready to settle scores with the Akatsuki.

"Wait! Maple!"

Feng looked down and saw the Jonin who usually took good care of him.

He waved excitedly, saying, "Feng! Get out of here quickly and go to Konoha Village—only there can protect you!"

Feng was taken aback.

The name of the underworld in Konoha Village is legendary; how could she not know him?

"No! I will live and die with the village! What's the point of me living alone!"

The Jonin became anxious.

"Maple! Now is not the time for any talk of living and dying together. As long as you live, there is hope for the reconstruction of Takigakure, and the ninja world can have a better future!"

"Please, Feng, run!"

Feng's expression was resolute.

"Even if I die here, I will never abandon you and run away!"

Before the Jonin could say anything more, a dark shadow flashed past and struck him, kicking up clouds of dust.

"Uncle!"

Maple flapped its wings to disperse the dust, revealing a shirtless man standing on the Jonin's body, holding a heart and stuffing it into his own body.

"Interesting. It saves me time in fusing the heart."

Kakuzu turned to look at Kaede.

"You're the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki, aren't you? You had so many chances to escape, why didn't you cherish them?"

"You are—our village's senior, Senior Kakuzu?!"

Kaede stared in horror at Kakuzu's monstrous body.

"It's an honor to be remembered by the younger generation... Don't worry, I'll make sure you die without suffering."

Before Feng could react, Kakuzu unleashed his second technique, a four-stage pressure display.

……

At the Kirabi concert.

"A concert? That sounds like a lot of fun."

The Raikage, Mabui, and Killer Bee stared intently at the masked man emerging from the vortex, their eyes filled with murderous intent.
