Side Story: After the Eight Gates Sasuke Traveled to Shippuden 7
Black Zetsu was about to go crazy!
This was supposed to be the era of Pain.
But a purple Perfect Susanoo had suddenly appeared, which meant that Sasuke Uchiha was already strong enough to rival Pain!
At the Akatsuki's base, just as they were preparing to begin extracting the One-Tail into the Gedo Statue, Zetsu coldly turned its head to look at the Sharingan shadow in the distance. "The enemy is in pursuit! Their strength is powerful beyond our imagination!"
"Itachi Uchiha!"
"Back then in Konoha, you were soft-hearted and spared Sasuke Uchiha's life. Now, that little brat has become a great hidden danger to the organization!"
"Hm? The pursuing enemy is Sasuke?"
Itachi Uchiha was still puzzled. The latest intelligence he had received on Sasuke was that his foolish little brother was still working for Orochimaru. How did he suddenly pop up and get involved in the Akatsuki's business?
However, Itachi didn't pay it much mind and said softly, "Didn't we just say we would use the Shape-Shifting puppet clones for guard duty? In that case, I'll go and stop him…"
After all, it was his own little brother. He couldn't just watch as others beat him to death. If he went, he could also take the opportunity to see Sasuke and check on how his training was going…
"Not enough! He is not the only enemy!"
Black Zetsu's voice turned cold as it continued, "We must send more people with you! If necessary, even the leader will have to make a move!"
"Hey, there's no need for such a big fuss!"
"I worked so hard to capture the One-Tail jinchuriki. Shouldn't we be dealing with the One-Tail first! We can take care of that guy Sasuke anytime!"
"Don't joke around!"
Black Zetsu abruptly cut off the others and continued to stare at the Sharingan shadow. "Itachi Uchiha, with your Mangekyo Sharingan, you should know what a Perfect Susanoo means, right?"
"…Sasuke has awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan?"
No one could see Itachi's expression clearly, but everyone present could feel a trace of joy in his tone…
Kisame Hoshigaki quickly said, "Hey, hey, be rational, Mr. Itachi!"
The little brother who has awakened the Mangekyo is not a cute child anymore; he is your greatest enemy! He wants to kill you every time he sees you!
Itachi Uchiha, however, paid no attention. Under his shadow, the large vermilion character under the Gedo Statue's finger was gradually fading, which meant he was retracting his chakra.
Itachi raised his eyes to look at everyone present and said in a cold voice, "I will immediately rush to the Land of Wind and resolve the matter with Sasuke!"
"Stop your wishful thinking, Itachi!"
Black Zetsu reprimanded loudly and continued, "Sasuke Uchiha's strength far exceeds your imagination. You are absolutely no match for him. What's more, by his side are the Nine-Tails jinchuriki, one of Konoha's Sannin, Jiraiya, and the Sand Village elder, Chiyo!"
"The most important thing now is to speed up the absorption of the One-Tail. We must use the leader's Shape-Shifting Technique and dispatch your puppet clones to block their pursuit!"
"Zetsu…"
The Rinnegan in the Deva Path Pain's eyes trembled slightly as it landed on Zetsu. He tapped his fingers and asked softly, "How many Shape-Shifting puppets do we need to make to stop them?"
Zetsu glanced at everyone present. These guys were all S-rank rogue ninjas from various villages, and most of them possessed Kage-level strength. But to have them face a Perfect Susanoo…
So far, only three people had been able to defeat a Perfect Susanoo: Kaguya Otsutsuki, Asura, and Hashirama Senju… If they didn't use some flashy jutsu, there was no way to contend with it!
"Everyone here must contribute chakra for the Shape-Shifting puppets!"
Black Zetsu lowered its head again and calmly suggested, "If necessary, we even need to dispatch the organization's idle combat power…"
What he was referring to was, naturally, the most idle person in the organization at present…
The one who had taken the name of 'Madara'!
The tiger-striped masked man who had crawled out of hell!
On the other side, the towering Susanoo was still flying in the sky…
"Hey, Sasuke, are you sure you're not going in the wrong direction?" Naruto's face was anxious. "Why haven't we found any trace of Gaara yet!"
"Shut up! I have to concentrate on scouting! And, why haven't you trained in Sage Mode, you idiot!" Sasuke Uchiha's temper was even more explosive than his. "Don't you know that Sage Mode's super perception can sense malicious chakra!"
"Also, have you explained the current situation clearly to the Nine-Tails inside you? Did it tell you the location of the One-Tail, Shukaku?"
"That stinky fox is completely ignoring me!"
"What a… hassle!"
Sasuke's sensory abilities were a bit poor compared to other clansmen. The reason he hadn't chosen to train in Crow Sage Mode was because his little companion's sensory abilities were sufficient!
But what was the deal with this world's Naruto?
He didn't train in Mount Myoboku's Sage Mode? He couldn't use the Nine-Tails' chakra? That fox wouldn't even help sense and find the enemy?
At the very least, he could have the Nine-Tails say a few words in the Tailed Beast space and ask about the One-Tail's location!
"Hmm, Sasuke, you know about Sage Mode too?"
Jiraiya suddenly clapped his hands together and laughed heartily. "I am the Toad Sage from Mount Myoboku! In that case, just wait for me to synthesize sage chakra and enter Sage Mode!"
A muscle twitched on Sasuke's face. He couldn't help but purse his lips. "If I remember correctly, Lord Jiraiya's Sage Mode only lasts for five minutes, right?"
"…"
Jiraiya's expression froze, and he said angrily, "Kid, don't go too far! The combat power of Sage Mode, even if it's only for five minutes, is enough to take care of you!"
"With all due respect…"
Sasuke snorted coldly and said with contempt, "Besides sensory ability and flight, Sage Mode is completely useless…"
"Fli… flight?"
"Oh, I forgot. Your Mount Myoboku's Toad Sage Mode doesn't have the ability to fly."
Sasuke added casually. Only after stabbing him with that remark did he shake his head with a grim expression. "After all, that Great Toad Sage has never really helped the humans of the ninja world develop a Sage Mode that is most suitable for them…"
Because the first to train in Sage Mode was Hagoromo Otsutsuki, also known as the legendary Sage of Six Paths. With his aptitude and chakra reserves, synthesizing sage chakra was too simple!
Later, the ninjas who went to Mount Myoboku seeking to train in Sage Mode were just ordinary humans of the ninja world. Clearly, they had never succeeded…
For a thousand years, the Great Toad Sage had never thought about this problem…
Not like the freeloading crow in their family, which had specifically developed the Crow Sage Mode for his good brother. Coupled with Shisui's research and development, it had become the most suitable Sage Mode for their Uchiha clan to train in!
"Lord Jiraiya, it seems your sensory ability is not needed."
Sasuke suddenly lowered his head and looked at a group of ninjas in black robes with red clouds below. A smile appeared on his lips. "It seems I've seen this world's brother! Forget it, I'll clear out the minions first, then have a good chat with him!"
"I hope the you of this world is not too disappointing! Nii-san!"
"No matter which world, I always suffer greatly!"
The giant purple figure descended from the sky, shattering a mountain peak with one step!
At the same time, two giant purple ninja swords were also drawn by the Susanoo. The blades turned towards the crowd of the Akatsuki and were swung out fiercely!
Two streams of sword qi surged forward!
The air was even compressed by the sword qi!
The neat formation of the Akatsuki's Shape-Shifting puppets was instantly shattered into pieces by the two streams of sword qi! The most powerful rogue ninja organization in the world could only let its members scatter in disarray, each forming hand seals to defend themselves…
Clearly, this was of no use. Unless someone could proactively step forward to block the Susanoo's attack, they would surely suffer heavy casualties…
Finally, two people stood out. Itachi Uchiha and the masked man looked at each other, their eyes gradually turning into Mangekyo Sharingan!
A half-bodied red Susanoo stood up, holding the ultimate defensive artifact, the Yata Mirror, and resisted one of the sword qi's sharp edges!
The other blue, half-bodied Susanoo was no less impressive. It held back the sword qi in front of it with one hand and sucked it into an unknown space!
"Ahahahahaha…"
Sasuke Uchiha, within the purple Susanoo, laughed wildly. As if he had discovered something extremely ridiculous, he looked at the two second-form Susanoo in the distance. "Hahaha, what a pity, I injured Teacher Kakashi…"
"Otherwise, today's battle would surely be even better!"
"Tsk, and a brother who is willing to use his Susanoo is truly a rare sight!"
"Nii-san is rarely willing to use his Mangekyo Sharingan! If Dad saw him fighting with his Susanoo, he would surely be very happy, right?"
"Sasuke, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Naruto frowned. "We're clearly surrounded by the enemy! The enemies opposite us, they also have that giant thing!"
"Be rational, Naruto!" Jiraiya grabbed his disciple's shoulder and pointed at the Susanoo in the distance. "Whether it's height or equipment, it's clear that Sasuke's side has the advantage. The Susanoo and all that shouldn't be particularly hard to deal with, right?"
"Of course. If Lady Tsunade were here, she could smash it open with one punch… Even a certain crow only needs one jutsu to pluck the head off a Susanoo! As for me, I'd probably have to open the Sixth or even the Seventh Gate…"
Sasuke raised an eyebrow and explained, "But don't think it's too simple. Using shuriken and ninja swords and the like, it's impossible to pierce their defense…"
The Naruto of this world's strength is a bit off. He doesn't seem to have been through any particularly cruel baptisms. I have to remind him a few times…
"Hey, hey, hey, do we look that foolish!"
"Be careful, there are other tricky guys present! And the chakra of some of them doesn't feel the same as in my memory. Perhaps it's because their strength is weak…"
"Or perhaps… it's the Rinnegan's Shape-Shifting puppet!"
