Naruto: From Fake to Real, Deceiving the Ninja World.

Unexpectedly, when they met again after many years, the other party had actually joined the Akatsuki organization.

"Aren't there a lot of guys in Akatsuki who have connections with Konoha?"

Yagura, standing to the side, said helplessly, "If I remember correctly, Obito Uchiha and Orochimaru were both from your Konoha, right?"

"What, is Konoha a breeding ground for rogue ninja?"

Kakashi Hatake's eye twitched almost imperceptibly, but he remained silent.

Orochimaru, disguised as "Rasa," and Obito Uchiha, wearing a mask, glanced indifferently at Yagura, their expressions unreadable.

"Jiraiya-sensei, it's nice to see you again."

Nagato gazed calmly at her former teacher and spoke first, her voice devoid of any emotion: "I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly."

"The combined might of the five great ninja villages is truly astonishing, but..."

His gaze slowly swept over the five great ninja villages, and he said slowly, "Hyuga Kumokawa, that guy, he didn't come?"

"Humph!"

Before Jiraiya could answer, Sarutobi Asuma said coldly, "Do we really need our Fifth Hokage to personally deal with you cowardly scum?"

The Fifth Hokage?

Asma's words elicited various reactions from many of those present.

When Orochimaru heard the words "Fifth Hokage" and "Hyuga Kumokawa" again, his eyes lowered slightly, concealing the sudden surge of gloom within them.

Old man, Jiraiya, Tsunade... you guys really have no eyes to see the value in people.

They actually let that two-faced guy, Hyuga Kumokawa, become Hokage...

Heh, Konoha should just collapse already.

Chapter 357 Chaos

Inside the vast space of the first level of the underground palace.

On the rock walls on both sides, torches crackled and flickered, casting shifting shadows and creating a dim, ever-changing light throughout the space.

The enormous ten-tailed stone statue stood majestically, its single eye looking down at the tiny, ant-like crowd below in the dim light.

The two groups of people stood facing each other, clearly separated by only a few hundred meters.

Everyone's body was slightly tense, and their weapons and hands were poised to strike at any moment.

Strangely, despite the extremely tense atmosphere, as if a chaotic battle was about to erupt at any moment, neither side made the first move.

On the Akatsuki side, there are a group of puppets including Nagato, Konan, Hanzo, Hiruko, Kakuzu, Shennong, Wuwei, and Sasori.

Meanwhile, the five great ninja villages have Jiraiya, Kakashi Hatake, Asuma Sarutobi, Yugito Nii, Tsuchida, Kyoto, Akatsuchi, Yagura Karatachi, Kisame, and Rasa.

Clearly, neither side was entirely sure of the other's strength. In addition, the underground palace was not spacious and the materials were too hard, which limited the strength of some of them.

For a moment, no one spoke; only the crackling of the burning torches and the breathing of the crowd could be clearly heard.

However, this fragile balance was shattered by an extremely faint yet chilling crack.

Click!

The sound came from the end of the line of the five great ninja villages.

Several Chunin who were nearby instinctively turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound.

A Chunin from Kumogakure had his eyes wide open, his face frozen in a wary expression, but his neck had been twisted 180 degrees.

Before he could even utter a sound, his body went limp and he collapsed to the ground, lifeless.

"what?"

"Who?"

No one saw who did it, and even the members of the Akatsuki organization showed a barely perceptible look of astonishment for a moment.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

This fuse instantly ignited the powder keg for both sides.

"Kill!" The two wooden figures shouted fiercely.

The Two-Tails' chakra within her body erupted with a roar, and flame-like blue chakra shot into the sky, her body rapidly expanding and deforming in the light.

In an instant, it transformed into a cat demon covered in flame patterns and with two giant tails dancing wildly!

"Roar!!"

The Two-Tails let out a deafening roar, the terrifying sound wave mixed with a tangible chakra impact, causing the entire underground palace to tremble!

Almost at the same moment that the two Yugitos fully transformed into their tailed beasts, Hiruko and Shinno, who had been holding back for so long, also shot out like arrows from a bow!

"Give me that cat!" Hiruko's tone was filled with the excitement of seizing his prey.

With a flick of his wide sleeves, several bandages hardened by steel release, gleaming with a sharp, cold metallic light, shot towards the Two-Tails, which had just completed its tailed beast transformation, like venomous snakes!

however……

Keng! Keng! Keng!

A figure suddenly appeared in front of the bandages, wielding a white-glowing wakizashi that unleashed a barrage of blades, sparks flying as it deflected and repelled all the incoming bandages!

"Your opponent is me."

Before Kakashi Hatake could finish speaking, his figure blurred again, instantly rushing in front of Hiruko. The wakizashi, with a sharp whooshing sound, pierced straight at the opponent's face.

"Hmph! Overestimating yourself!" Hiruko sneered, neither dodging nor avoiding, raising his hand, which had turned into a dark metallic color, to grasp Kakashi's sword.

clang! !

The clang of metal on metal was piercing, and Kakashi gripped the blade firmly.

Hiruko looked at Kakashi, who was standing close by, his gaze sweeping over Kakashi's black pupils, a regretful and disdainful smile appearing on his face: "What a pity, Hatake Kakashi..."

"How could you lose that precious Sharingan?"

“If it were still in your eye socket, I would be much more ‘interested’ in you.”

"And now, as an ordinary person..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly exerted force in his arm, pushing Kakashi back half a step, and looked down at him mockingly: "What makes you compare to me, who is now almost a perfect being?"

On the other side, Shennong charged toward Yagura, grinning maliciously, "Leave the baby face to me!"

However, Yagura Karatachi simply stood there expressionless. Before Shennong could even get close to him, a giant sword wrapped in bandages swept across with a fierce wind!

"Disgusting bastard, do you want to die?" Kisame Hoshigaki grinned, revealing a mouthful of shark teeth, and slashed fiercely at Shennong with his Samehada sword.

Because Obito Uchiha's manipulation of Yagura Karatachi was exposed by "Uzumaki," Kisame Hoshigaki was not recruited into the Akatsuki organization by Obito.

The pufferfish demon who betrayed the village's information still died at the hands of Kisame Hoshigaki. However, this time, it was Yagura Karatachi who personally ordered the killing of the pufferfish demon.

Kisame Hoshigaki was carefully trained by Yagura Karatachi to become one of the second generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist and the second user of the great sword Samehada.

For Kisame Hoshigaki, Yagura Karatachi was a mentor who had shown him great kindness.

Shennong roared and fiercely met the attack with his fist, which was filled with Zero-Tails chakra.

Bang! !

A surge of energy rippled between the two sides.

At the same time, the Two-Tails, now fully transformed into a tailed beast, lunged at the Akatsuki members, just as its giant claws were about to strike.

"Spiritual Communication Technique!" Wuwei formed hand seals and slammed his palms onto the ground.

With a burst of white smoke, Wuwei, standing atop Wu's head, flew into the air.

"Roar!" 'Wu' roared and fiercely met the two tails below.

The two enormous creatures instantly clashed, their terrifying sounds and roars echoing throughout the underground palace!

At the same time, a figure suddenly burst out, carrying a long-suppressed killing intent.

Bang! !

Kakuzu stomped his foot hard on the ground, and the hard stone bricks beneath his feet groaned under the weight, spiderweb-like cracks spreading instantly.

Using this violent recoil, his massive body, like a heavy battering ram, charged straight into the ranks of the five great ninja villages, accompanied by a fierce wind!

During his sprint, the muscles in his right arm bulged terribly, and his Earth Release chakra surged wildly within him.

Soon, the entire arm and even half of the body were covered by thick, hard, and angular rocks, expanding in size several times over, transforming into a giant arm capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks!

Previously, Kakuzu could use all five elemental ninjutsu, but he could only use B-rank ninjutsu such as "Wind Release: Pressure Damage", "Lightning Release: False Darkness", and "Fire Release: Head Carving".

By combining several different ninjutsu with "Earth Grudge Fear," a composite ninjutsu can unleash power comparable to an A-rank ninjutsu.

Now, after Isshiki Otsutsuki modified his body, this body, which was entirely formed from those black lines, had its other four hearts removed, leaving only the Earth Release heart.

It can be said that this body was created entirely for using Earth Release ninjutsu, taking a further step in the realm of Earth Release nature transformation and form transformation.

At that moment, his fist slammed out, and the air exploded as it was compressed, causing Jiraiya's eyes to narrow involuntarily.

Chapter 358 Judge, Karmic Reincarnation

"I come!"

Just as they were about to form a hand seal, Huang Tu stepped forward, his broad body blocking their path.

Faced with Kakuzu's attack, the veins on his two thick arms bulged as he gripped the giant axe tightly and swung it upwards in a wide arc to meet the attack!

"Drink!" With a loud shout, the axe blade sliced ​​through the air, accompanied by a heavy whistling sound that seemed to tear everything apart.

The giant rock fist and the heavy giant axe collided violently.

boom! !

A deafening roar, so deep it was almost muffled, suddenly erupted, sounding like the violent collision of two mountains.

A visible ring of air blasts suddenly spread outwards from the two of them, stirring up dust and gravel from the ground and blowing them outwards. Several ninjas who were nearby were even blown away by the air blasts!

Kakuzu's rocky fist and Huangtu's axe blade clashed fiercely, with rock fragments flying from the point of impact!

"Ok?"

Sensing the immense force that was in no way inferior to his own, Kakuzu's forward momentum was abruptly halted, and a hint of surprise flashed in his green eyes.

No one knows better than himself the power his body can currently exert.

If he could exchange blows with the Fourth Raikage again, he might be much slower, but he was confident that he would not be at a disadvantage in terms of strength.

I never expected that there would be someone who could go toe-to-toe with me in terms of brute force.

"Is it because of that ninja tool?" Kakuzu glanced at the giant axe, his earth-style chakra surging again, and the rocks on his arm became even thicker.

boom!

Similarly, Huang Tu's chakra surged forth and poured into the giant axe.

The area where the two were locked in combat generated a surge of energy, instantly becoming an absolute zone of power collision, inaccessible to outsiders.

In the distance, Nagato, who had been standing silently, nodded slightly without turning his head and said to the black puppet behind him, "The rest of the unimportant people are yours."

Before he finished speaking, countless white paper pieces fluttered and danced around Xiao Nan beside him, quickly coalescing and stretching behind him to transform into a pair of enormous paper wings.

With a sudden tremor of her paper wings, she gracefully rose into the air, hovering in mid-air, and then swung her arms!

shhhhhhhh!

Countless pieces of paper, like arrows shot out, emitted a dense and ear-piercing sound as they transformed into a white storm of death, pouring down upon the Konoha members below!

Faced with this overwhelming attack, Sarutobi Asuma took a step forward, formed hand seals, puffed out his cheeks, and his chest heaved. He then looked up and spat out the rain of paper raining down from the sky.

call!

A thick cloud of gray-black smoke billowed from his mouth, instantly engulfing the incoming paper scraps and Xiao Nan in the air.

The next moment, Asuma clenched his teeth, sending a spark flying.

boom!

The area covered in soot was instantly ignited, turning into a raging sea of ​​fire!

The high temperature distorted the air, and the paper quickly curled up, charred, and turned to ashes in the flames!
