Chapter 191 - The Final Battlefield

"Quickly escort the villagers to the shelters."

"No, just escorting them to the shelters isn't enough. Immediately summon all the villagers and ninjas below the rank of Jonin to gather here with me."

Piercing alarms shattered the quiet night. Jonin wearing their vests immediately issued orders to the ninjas of lower rank.

Before the other ninjas could carry out the orders, Sasuke Uchiha, who had already created a Wood Clone to teach Uzumaki Naruto the basics in an Other Dimension, issued a higher-level command.

"Yes, Lord Sasuke!"

Seeing Konoha's second-in-command, the other ninjas immediately followed his orders.

Villagers, members of ninja clans, and both retired and active ninjas quickly converged towards Sasuke Uchiha.

Sasuke Uchiha raised his hands, two lines of blood tears streaming from the corners of his eyes, and then two Black Holes appeared out of thin air in his palms.

The Black Holes seemed to possess their own will, quickly flying away from Sasuke Uchiha's hands and settling on his left and right sides behind him. They then rapidly expanded, forming two massive Black Hole portals.

"Everyone, go in. The destination is a safe place," Sasuke Uchiha said calmly.

"Yes."

The ninjas, seeing the Great Sun Spirit for the first time, were all extremely shocked.

But out of trust in their second-in-command, the ninjas didn't hesitate and willingly stepped into the Black Holes.

Seeing that the ninjas had entered, the civilians also followed closely behind.

Watching Sasuke Uchiha, who had become the village's strong rear guard, Kakashi Hatake, standing not far away, couldn't help but show a look of relief in his eyes.

Immediately after, he looked towards Izayoi's house, his expression becoming hesitant and fearful again.

He knew that Uchiha Obito was currently at Izayoi's house.

He really wanted to talk to Uchiha Obito, to ask him why he didn't return to Konoha if he hadn't died back then, what he had experienced over the years, and why he attacked their teacher and his wife.

But he didn't dare to go!

Because of the two years of calm, the highly intelligent Kakashi Hatake had gradually realized why the Uchiha Obito, who would rather be late than not help an old person when he was a child, had such a drastic change in personality.

If nothing unexpected happened, it was probably because he knew that Kakashi had killed Rin.

Regardless, it was a fact that Rin had died by his hand.

And before his 'death', Uchiha Obito had entrusted him with taking good care of Rin, but he had failed to do so.

Therefore, Kakashi Hatake was a little afraid to face Uchiha Obito.

In less than half an hour, the villagers of Konoha and ninjas below the rank of Jonin had all evacuated Konoha.

Madara Uchiha did not stop them.

This was because Sasuke Uchiha was not sending them to an Other Dimension, but to a city in the Land of Fire.

Under his Sage of Six Paths Mode perception, even if these people fled to an island outside the Shinobi World, Madara Uchiha could still find their location.

As long as they didn't escape into another dimension, these villagers and ninjas would still be Izayoi's weakness.

Meanwhile, Izayoi was talking with the elders of the various Great Shinobi Villages.

"Lord Izayoi, we need your help."

"I'm already helping you. If you don't believe me, look."

Looking at the four faces on the Chakra Television, Izayoi pointed at Madara Uchiha opposite him.

Uzuki Yugao immediately turned the Chakra Television, aiming the camera at Madara Uchiha.

The elders of the four Great Shinobi Villages fell silent instantly.

No wonder the Akatsuki Leader was leading the group, and Madara Uchiha hadn't made a move. It turned out they were restraining each other.

"Thank you for your hard work, Lord Izayoi."

After the elders of the four Great Shinobi Villages expressed their gratitude, they ended the ultra-long-distance call on the Chakra Television.

Waving his hand to signal Uzuki Yugao to take the Chakra Television away, Izayoi looked at the equally silent Madara Uchiha, a playful smile on his face. "If you have something important to do, then go ahead."

"Just this level is nothing much," Madara Uchiha said with a feigned calm smile. "With Nagato's strength, no one besides you, me, and that guy in the sky will be his opponent."

"That's not necessarily true," Izayoi said with a meaningful smile.

Madara Uchiha immediately frowned, a bad feeling rising in his heart.

...

Three hours later, in a certain Other Dimension.

"This... is this the Nine Tails' Chakra?"

"Mom, Dad... thank you!"

Uzumaki Naruto looked at his body covered in golden Chakra. Recalling the scene of meeting his parents in the Jinchuriki space, a smile appeared on his face.

Just now, Uzumaki Naruto had finally understood his lineage. With the help of Izayoi's Sage of Six Paths Mode, his Chakra had connected with his parents' Chakra, allowing him to experience their feelings and their deep love for him. He had been completely liberated.

The only victim was Kurama, who was sealed away by Uzumaki Naruto and whose Chakra was freely drawn upon.

The tsundere fox still refused to acknowledge Uzumaki Naruto.

Izayoi also didn't connect Uzumaki Naruto's Chakra with Kurama's, letting him feel Kurama's hatred for humans and understand where that hatred came from.

Golden Body Naruto's strength was already sufficient.

With a single fist bump, a large amount of information appeared in Uzumaki Naruto's mind. Coupled with his Golden Body state, he could condense golden palms and directly master the Super Hurricane Sphere Combination.

In less than five hours, Uzumaki Naruto's strength soared. From an Ace Combat Power, who was Kage-level when using Sage Mode, he leaped directly past the Peak of the Five Kage and reached the level of a Super Kage Gatekeeper.

This was the treatment of a protagonist!

He could have no foundation, then get one power-up and instantly surpass the Top Student who had trained for many years.

His strength could remain unchanged for a long time, but with just one power-up, he could surpass the male lead's years of effort.

He didn't need any complex mechanics; he just needed to stack his stats, and he could overwhelm those who relied on complex abilities.

This was... Uzumaki Naruto!

Precisely because of this, Izayoi had no intention of training Uzumaki Naruto.

Teaching such a person was meaningless, because as soon as he grew, he would immediately gain strength far beyond what could be achieved through training.

"Izayoi, thank you."

Looking at Izayoi before him, Uzumaki Naruto expressed his sincere gratitude.

Izayoi smiled and said, "It was just a small favor, no need to thank me."

"No, if it weren't for you, I still wouldn't know about my past, and I wouldn't have gained such incredible power." Uzumaki Naruto shook his head.

After meeting his parents and watching the Nine-Tails Attack in the Chakra space, feeling his parents' emotions, and understanding his father, the young man seemed to mature instantly.

Seeing this, Izayoi couldn't help but smile. "If you want to thank me, then work hard later. The war outside has already broken out."

"What's going on?" Uzumaki Naruto was slightly taken aback.

"The Akatsuki is capturing the Tailed Beasts. The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path's ability is to seal all nine Tailed Beasts and turn them into an ultimate weapon," Izayoi explained. "Madara Uchiha has tied up the main force, but the Akatsuki Leader's strength is something no one can stop. Your mission is to go and support the villages targeted by the Akatsuki Leader. Absolutely do not let the Jinchuriki in those villages be captured."

"I understand." Uzumaki Naruto immediately nodded with a serious expression.

"Don't worry, I'll have Sasuke assist you," Izayoi said. After speaking, he gave the Wood Clone of Sasuke Uchiha standing beside him a look.

The latter instantly understood and used the Great Sun Spirit to create a Black Hole, taking Uzumaki Naruto away from the Other Dimension.

When they reappeared, they were already in the ruins of the Hidden Cloud Village battlefield.

The battlefield Nagato's main body headed to was indeed Hidden Cloud Village.

After all, besides Konoha, the only villages the Akatsuki Missing-nin couldn't defeat were Hidden Cloud Village and Hidden Stone Village.

In the past two years, after the Fourth Raikage handed over Hidden Cloud Village to Darui, he had been training with Killer B in Kumorai Gorge.

Night after night, he would wake up from nightmares, remembering how small and powerless he felt before Toneri Otsutsuki and the Akatsuki Leader. The Fourth Raikage didn't break down or give up powerlessly.

He chose to strive for improvement, constantly tormenting himself with lightning and the Eight Tails' power. He actually managed to defy fate and master the strongest spear and strongest shield left by the Third Raikage, becoming a Peak of the Five Kage existence.

He and Killer B also became the strongest AB team in history.

Working together, they managed to hold out against Nagato, who was wearing the Tobi Armor, for several hours.

If the Puppet Army hadn't intervened, Nagato would only need to summon four undead with Kage-level strength, use the Four Red Yang Formation to trap the Fourth Raikage and Killer B, then use Wood Release: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees to fill the entire Barrier, effectively sealing off the Fourth Raikage's short-distance teleportation, which was no less than the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Coupled with the branches that would quickly drain Chakra upon contact and could perform sealing jutsu, the strongest AB team in history would be nothing more than two decent toys.

But precisely because of the appearance of the Puppet Army, Nagato couldn't finish the fight quickly.

Especially since the Puppet leader who descended upon Hidden Cloud Village was Danzo Shimura.

Facing the offensive Kamui that ignored rank differences, both Nagato and Tobi were helpless.

They had also considered leaving immediately using Uchiha Obito's Kamui after capturing Killer B.

But every time they were close to succeeding, Danzo Shimura, who was invisible thanks to Ranmaru's Red Eye and could also fly, would seize the opportunity to attack, preventing Nagato from succeeding.

Therefore, even though Hidden Cloud Village was reduced to ruins by the Reanimation Jutsu army, the Puppet army, and the Cloud Ninja army, Nagato still couldn't capture Killer B.

This feeling of facing opponents who couldn't defeat him but could still annoy him greatly frustrated Nagato.

Fortunately, the capture of the other Tailed Beasts went very smoothly.

The first to fall was not Gaara.

It was Hidden Mist Village, which only had two Kage-level powerhouses, Mei Terumi and Utakata.

Because the Akatsuki members who went to Hidden Mist Village were Kisame Hoshigaki, who was skilled in Water Release, and the Second Mizukage, who had been brought back by Reanimation Jutsu.

Facing one Kage-level powerhouse and one Peak of the Five Kage powerhouse, Hidden Mist Village had no power to resist at all.

Utakata and Mei Terumi were easily defeated, but Utakata was not thrown into Kamui's Other Dimension; instead, he was transferred to a different Other Dimension.

Otherwise, the Akatsuki would just be working for Toneri Otsutsuki.

The second Great Shinobi Village to fall was Gaara's Sunagakure.

Just like in the original story, without anyone's help, Deidara, the youngest member of the Akatsuki, defeated Gaara by himself.

Unlike losing an arm in the original story, Deidara defeated Gaara completely unscathed.

The third Great Shinobi Village to fall was Hidden Stone Village.

Nagato dispatched the Second Tsuchikage Mu, Ōnoki's teacher, who developed Dust Release and Dustless Bewilderment and whose strength was at the Peak of the Five Kage.

Facing a teacher with infinite chakra, Ōnoki, whose chakra had decreased with age instead of increasing, and who couldn't use Dust Release many times, could at most only fight to a stalemate for a short period.

And in these two years, Kitsuchi and Kurotsuchi still hadn't mastered Dust Release.

They were both held up by the Reanimation Jutsu army.

Without enemy interference, Konan, along with Hidan and Kakuzu, easily defeated the Four-Tails Jinchuriki and the Five-Tails Jinchuriki.

As for the Three-Tails, which had just been revived, it was personally captured by Uchiha Obito's main body.

In less than six hours, the One-Tail Shukaku, the newly revived Three-Tails Isobu, the Four-Tails Son Goku, the Five-Tails Kokuō, the Six-Tails Saiken, and the Seven-Tails Chōmei had all fallen into the Akatsuki's hands.

Only the Two-Tails Matatabi and the Eight-Tails Gyūki from the Hidden Cloud Village, and the Nine-Tails Kurama from Konoha remained. All nine Tailed Beasts had fallen into the Akatsuki's hands.

Thus, the ruined new Hidden Cloud Village also became the final battlefield.

The Akatsuki members who had captured these Tailed Beasts didn't linger at all. With the help of Uchiha Obito's Wood Clone's Kamui, they quickly moved the battlefield and headed to the Hidden Cloud Village to support Nagato.

The scattered Reanimation Jutsu army and the Puppet Army also went to the Hidden Cloud battlefield.

In just a few hours, the Puppet Army had racked up a large number of Perks. Izayoi's Points balance had already surpassed the one million mark.

He was too lazy to continue grinding the ninjas who didn't drop Perks.

The real treasure was on the Hidden Cloud battlefield.

When all the Akatsuki members arrived at the Hidden Cloud battlefield, a Black Hole appeared, and Uzumaki Naruto and Sasuke Uchiha's Wood Clones also arrived at the Hidden Cloud battlefield.

As soon as they appeared, they were immediately sensed by Madara Uchiha.

He looked at Izayoi opposite him and couldn't help but laugh, "Is this the hand you're using against Nagato?"

"It's enough, isn't it?" Izayoi also laughed.

"Aren't you afraid of walking into a lion's den?"

"If you have the ability, you can try."

Izayoi and Madara Uchiha's gazes once again formed a horizon, sparking a dazzling fire.

Then Madara Uchiha sneered, "Try it then."

The next second, Uchiha Obito's Wood Clone suddenly lost control of its body, raised its hand to Madara Uchiha's shoulder, and used Kamui to take him away.

Izayoi didn't stop him, but his figure vanished without a trace.

As soon as the two disappeared, they were immediately discovered by the Jonin who had gathered outside Izayoi's house, waiting for the Hokage's orders.

They all breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, felt a pang of worry.

They were relieved that Izayoi and Madara Uchiha hadn't started fighting in Konoha.

Their worry was for Izayoi's safety.

As the only Super-Scale Combatant among the Five Great Shinobi Villages, if Izayoi was defeated or killed, the Five Great Shinobi Villages would have no power to resist.

They all wanted to help Izayoi, but unfortunately, they were powerless and could only pray in their hearts that their Hokage would win.

Looking at the continuously appearing Akatsuki members and the Reanimation Jutsu army, as well as Toneri Otsutsuki's Puppet Army and Naruto and Sasuke, and Izayoi and Madara Uchiha, the AB duo and the Cloud Ninja army were all stunned.

Many Cloud Ninjas who were scared senseless even died at the hands of Human Puppets and Reanimated undead.

Immediately, a roar echoed to the extreme.

"Everyone evacuate from here! Don't worry about anyone else or your comrades! Your mission is to survive! Evacuate from here immediately!!!"

And the person roaring was none other than the Fourth Raikage.

The order from the village leader instantly extinguished the morale of the usually warlike and pro-combat Cloud Ninjas.

All the Cloud Ninjas quickly turned and fled, including Yugito Nii.

"Don't worry about the others, but don't let the Two-Tails Jinchuriki leave," Nagato immediately issued the leader's command.

The Akatsuki members, also startled by Izayoi's sudden appearance, quickly pursued.

Their mood rapidly recovered.

Izayoi was just one person.

On their side, they had two Super-Scale Combatants.

"Naruto, Sasuke, your opponent is Nagato."

Izayoi, who appeared beside Uzumaki Naruto without warning, looked up at Madara Uchiha, who was a beat slower and flying in the sky, and softly instructed, "Remember not to let him capture the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki."

Uzumaki Naruto and Sasuke Uchiha nodded with serious expressions.

Before long, a Black Hole appeared, and Sasuke Uchiha's main body also arrived.

The atmosphere instantly became incredibly oppressive.

The Fourth Raikage and Killer B, who remained on the battlefield, or more accurately, couldn't leave at all, were so overwhelmed by the invisible aura that they couldn't breathe.

Just then, Madara Uchiha moved.
