Cos Wuzan, was stabbed ten times by Heize at the beginning

Muzan's lips twitched, interrupting Naruto: "That's enough."

He didn't want to listen to Naruto's nonsense.

"No matter what you say, I am a member of the Eternal Bliss Cult, and that is an unchangeable fact."

"Muzan said."

Naruto's lips parted slightly as he stared intently at Muzan.

How could this be?

"Muzan!"

"It must be the Eternal Bliss Cult that did something to you!"

Naruto said firmly.

Sakura and Kakashi remained silent, staring at the somewhat unfamiliar Muzan.

Muzan didn't want to listen to Naruto's nonsense, so he steered the conversation to the point: "Did you come to find me? Or to save them?"

Muzan's gaze fell upon the people of Sunagakure before him.

Sakura has returned to normal; she knows clearly that Muzan has changed.

This was something she had been mentally prepared for.

"We've come to find you, but also to help Sunagakure."

Sakura said to Muzan.

Muzan shook his head regretfully: "Then it seems you won't be able to complete either of these tasks."

Chapter 489 They didn't say they were unwilling!!!

"Muzan, what are you trying to do?"

Kakashi, who had been silent all along, glanced at Muzan, then his gaze fell on Shisui beside Muzan.

Naruto and Sakura watched Muzan nervously.

"Just let the people of Sunagakure join the Eternal Bliss Cult, that's all."

Muzan said nonchalantly.

Kakashi frowned.

Today, the Eternal Bliss Cult has recruited Sunagakure. Will it be possible that tomorrow they will recruit Konoha, Kumogakure, and Iwagakure?

What does the Eternal Bliss Cult want to do?

To unify the ninja world?

"If they don't want to join, why are you forcing them?"

Naruto shouted.

"You don't want to?"

Hearing Naruto's words, Muzan looked at the dark mass of people in front of him: "Don't you want to join the Eternal Paradise Cult?"

No one answered.

They were unwilling to join, but they also dared not openly refute Muzan.

Muzan waited for a minute, but no one spoke.

He then turned to Naruto and said, "See? They didn't say they didn't want to."

Naruto: "..."

He clenched his fists and glared at Muzan.

"Joining the Eternal Bliss Cult is a big deal, and I'm giving them ample time to consider it."

Muzan has his own explanation.

Naruto's chest heaved violently as his anger surged.

"Stop talking nonsense!"

"You clearly forced them!"

Naruto could no longer tolerate it.

The sight of Muzan before him was simply unbearable!

Muzan seems to have become a completely different person!

The smile on Muzan's lips faded, his eyes turning cold: "So what if I forced them? Do you think you have the strength to rescue them?"

His voice was full of sarcasm.

"You bastard... I'm going to hit you to wake you up!"

Naruto let out a roar.

He forcefully broke free from Sakura's grasp and flew towards Muzan's direction.

A high concentration of chakra continuously condensed, compressed, and rotated in his palm.

bang——

Naruto's figure flew backward, smashing through a house in Sunagakure.

The vines retracted into Muzan's palm.

He stood still, without even moving a step.

Before Naruto could even get close, he was sent flying.

The difference in strength is obvious.

Chiyo rubbed her forehead.

She knew this would be the outcome.

"Naruto!"

Sakura ran in the direction Naruto was.

Naruto climbed out of the ruins.

There was a thin, long bloodstain on his cheek.

As soon as Sakura raised her hand, she noticed that the bloodstain had gradually healed.

Sakura looked intently at Muzan on the rooftop.

Undoubtedly, Muzan has become stronger in the past three years.

They were no match for Muzan before, let alone now.

Besides Muzan, there were also many other ninjas from the Uchiha clan.

It would be difficult for them to escape unscathed.

"Your mission should also include rescuing Gaara, right?"

Muzan guessed.

Kakashi remained silent.

Muzan raised his chin, a slight smile appearing on his lips: "Give up this mission!"

Kakashi stared at him: "Why?"

"Because I love Luo is dead."

As soon as Muzan finished speaking, Naruto immediately blurted out, "Impossible!"

Muzan looked at him: "As a fellow Jinchūriki, you should know that when a Tailed Beast leaves its body, the Jinchūriki is doomed, right?"

Naruto's pupils contracted, and a red light flickered in his eyes: "Impossible! Gaara can't be dead!"

"Naruto!"

"calm!"

Noticing his change, Sakura immediately placed her hand on Naruto's shoulder, her calm voice dispelling the red light in Naruto's eyes.

Kakashi looked at Muzan before him. Was Gaara already dead?

Is it still necessary to continue the mission to rescue Gaara?

The situation is very bad!

Kakashi's gaze swept over the group of people from the Eternal Paradise Cult in front of him.

Muzan's current strength should far surpass his.

He also had Uchiha Shisui by his side!

It is said that those resurrected by the Eternal Bliss Cult will possess immortality.

With so many Uchiha clansmen around, they had no chance of fighting back.

"You bastard! Gaara can't die!"

Naruto's figure shot out like a cannonball.

Sakura looked at her palm; Naruto had just unleashed tremendous power!

Naruto charged toward Muzan.

His hands were raised above his head.

The wind gathered in his palm, and as it spun rapidly, it transformed into a huge blue ball of light.

The Giant Rasengan emitted a piercing buzzing sound in Naruto's ears.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

Naruto let out a roar.

The giant Rasengan in his hand slammed down towards Muzan with a destructive force.

Muzan looked up, and Naruto's image was reflected in his pupils.

The ground shook violently.

It was shaking so badly that people could barely stand.

Countless vines pierced the ground and instantly intertwined to form a wall, blocking Muzan's path.

Bang!

A deafening collision rang out.

Countless wood chips splattered like oil droplets.

The storm subsided.

The vines remained firmly in place.

Naruto was instead thrown backward by the enormous reaction force.

Kakashi appeared behind Naruto and caught him steadily.

Just then, Sakura appeared behind Muzan without anyone noticing.

The fist, imbued with immense chakra, delivered a powerful blow with pure force capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks, slamming into Muzan's exposed back.

Snapped--

A loud bang was heard in the air.

Sakura's fist froze in mid-air, unable to advance even an inch further.

Sakura's eyes were filled with astonishment.

what happened?

Why……

Muzan didn't even turn around.
