"So, what should we do, Hokage-sama? We have to stop them from completing their forbidden jutsu?" Hiashi remarks.
"But how should we stop them? Attempting to overwhelm them with numbers will only cause more casualties if they decide to drop that thing on top of our shinobis." Fugaku frowns as he argues against sending shinobis.
"We can't even sit back and watch them finish whatever they are doing, either!" Inuzuka clan leader argues.
The clan leaders are struck with a dilemma. Only Fugaku has a calm expression on his face. A few moments ago, he received a message from Itachi and Sasuke about the situation.
He has uttermost trust in the capabilities of his sons. His sons have already surpassed him a long time ago.
"Let's leave the situation to the younger generation. We will take action if they fail." Fugaku points towards the visual feed where the members of In-Yō confront the members of Akatsuki.
Kakashi is confronting a Black Zetsu clone.
"Copy Ninja Kakashi! This isn't an opponent I can handle on my own." The Zetsu clone frowns.
'However, the jutsu is almost complete. I have to just buy a few minutes. It's even worth it to sacrifice this clone.'
The Zetsu clone enters inside the ground to seek an opportunity to sneak attack Kakashi.
At another location, Might Guy confronts Sasori.
"The Noble blue beast of Konoha is here to kick your ass." He enters the battlefield while spinning in mid-air.
'Who is this idiot?' Sasori silently stares at Guy's antics.
"Never heard of you!" Sasori shakes his head. He is using his 'real body' to confront Guy. Previously, his Hiroku puppet was destroyed during the Uchiha clan attack.
Guy enters into a Taijutsu stance and cautiously stares at Sasori's movements.
'I will test the waters with him.' Sasori takes out a scroll from his robe.
Poof…
With a puff of white smoke, the third Kazekage puppet appears in front of him.
'I have made some adjustments after the previous defeat. This time, I will get my revenge.' Sasori recalls his bitter defeat at the hands of Fugaku Uchiha.
At the other corner of the village,
Naruto confronts Kakuzu.
Hmm…
Kakuzu inspects Naruto's face and tries to recall his figure.
"You aren't even worth killing, kid. There is no bounty on you. Send an adult to fight me or does Konoha degraded to such an extent that a kid has to step forward to defend it?"
The face of the clan leaders turns red as they lip-read Kakuzu's and Naruto's conversation.
"I alone am enough, Dattebyo!" Naruto takes a battle stance. He cautiously inspects Kakuzu's movements.
Sigh…
Kakuzu takes a deep breath and shakes his head in regret.
"Looks like the shinobis of Konoha have forgotten the terror of my name. I fought against the First Hokage and survived. Do they truly think a kid who is still wet behind his ears can stop me? Very well, this will be a lesson for you all?"
Kakuzu claps his palm and makes some hand signs.
"Let the lesson begin!"
At another corner of Konoha,
Sasuke face against Hidan. He recognizes the latter from the records left behind by Izuna.
'So, this is the immortal member of Akatsuki? He can't be killed even after being chopped to pieces. I wonder how Amaterasu will fare against him. Also, I have to avoid getting hit by his blade and prevent him from taking a sample of my blood.'
Slick…
Hidan licks his scythe and curiously inspects Sasuke.
"A young brat from Konoha! I thought they will send more people to fight me. Am I not that well known in the Five Nations? Well, it's kind of my fault too, since I killed everyone who fought against me. Haha…"
Hidan laughs sheepishly and slung his scythe on his shoulders.
"Kid, be grateful for your pathetic life since soon you will be an offering to the Great God, Jashin."
Hidan closes his eyes and prays to Jashin before the start of the battle.
'Izuna Nii-san was right! All these Akatsuki members have one or two loose screws.'
Sasuke unsheathes his katana to battle Hidan.
--------------------
At another corner of the village,
Deidara is sitting on top of a boulder with the Magatama bead floating above his head. He pats the head of a clay wolf as he glares at the giant levitating planetary sphere above his head.
"Man! The leader sure is scary. To be able to create such a gigantic rock. What would happen if he drops it on something? That would be a cool scene."
He imagines the picture of this hill-sized dropping on top of a village.
"My upgraded C0, no, the ultimate art C0 will probably create a bigger explosion. Speaking of which, this is so boring! How long will it take? I have yet to blow anything in the past few weeks. My body is craving for some explosion. That red-eyed bastard is also here. This time I will blow his body to atoms."
Schink…
A sensory alert flashes past his body.
Whoosh…
He immediately jumps from the top of the rock.
Bang…
A lightning blade cleanly slices through the boulder.
"Phew! I was almost chopped in half."
Swish…
Another lighting blade flies toward the Magatama bead at an extremely high speed.
"Damn it!"
The clay wolf swiftly jumps in front of the lightning blade and blocks it with his body.
Bzzt…
The lightning blade slices the wolf and stops in its tracks. Itachi slowly walks out of the forest.
Tap... Tap... tap...
"It's you! YOU!"
Hatred appears in Deidara's eyes as he recognizes Itachi. He recognizes the red eyes that looked down on his art a few years ago.
"Haha… Kuhaha…"
He burst out in a fit of laughter.
"And here I was thinking of looking for you after dealing with the Konoha. But you came to me of your own free will. This time… I will return the humiliation I suffered that day by ten… no hundred-fold."
He removes the visor from his left eye to reveal a glowing red eye.
Shiing…
The tomoes in Itachi's Sharingan revolve as he inspects Deidara's chakra signature.
'His chakra signature is almost the same as the previous time. Only his chakra reserves have improved slightly. However, what's with his eye?'
A void of chakra appears around Deidara's left eye. Except for a glowing red dot, the Sharingan is unable to see anything.
Hmm…
He adjusts his 'Eye of Insight' to take a closer look at the peculiarity of Deidara's left eye.
'It appears to be some kind of mechanical prosthetic transplanted in his left eye. I can't see anything besides that.'
"You… you are looking down on me again, right? Those eyes… they are judging my art again." Anger appears in Deidara's eyes.
"Die C1!"
Deidara waves his hand and sends a flock of white clay birds and insects toward Itachi.
BOOM… BOOM…
The clay birds explode around Itachi, raising a cloud of dust and debris.
"Die! Die! DIE!"
Deidara continues to send wave after wave of explosive clay birds in Itachi's direction.
Schink…
A sensory alert jolts through his body.
Whoosh…
Deidara swiftly turns around and spews out a clay centipede from his mouth.
Clang…
The clay bird blocks the kunai aimed at his throat.
"You can't fool me with the same trick again!" Deidara's left eye narrows to reveal Itachi.
"Genjutsu doesn't affect me anymore." The clay centipede wraps around Itachi.
"Now, explode!"
BOOM…
"Seriously, man, why do I have to be so unlucky?" Another white Zetsu clone stares at the figure of Shisui slowly approaching him.
"Why it has to be Shisui Uchiha, the teleporter of all shinobis? I can't even run if I want to it."
'His Hiding in the Earth like a mole technique is quite advanced. It has been the seventh time I have fished him out of the earth.
' Shisui silently stares at the White Zetsu clone.
'Once he enters the ground, I can't even sense his presence; much less chakra. It feels like he has become a part of nature when he enters the ground. The only way to lure him out is by attacking the chakra orb floating orb of chakra.'
Shisui clicks his tongue in annoyance. After assessing the situation, he concludes.
'I can't directly just destroy this chakra orb. Once I destroy the container, it will detonate like a bomb and destroy a major portion of Outer Konoha. Then there is also this massive floating hill-sized rock. If I cut its chakra supply, the rock will just fall to the ground; devastating the surroundings in the process. Either way, it's a loss for Konoha. The only way to stop it is to seal it. But sealing it requires some time and preparation.'
He enters a standstill with the white Zetsu clone.
'I will take care of him first.'
Shisui makes up his mind and gives up on any attempt to interrupt the jutsu.
