Chapter 54: Why Do I Feel Like Everyone Knows Me?
Roran, underground factory.
The ragged people of Roran knelt down and accused Mukade of his crimes in tears.
Queen Sara covered her mouth and had already stopped crying. Naruto, next to her, was also filled with righteous indignation and joined everyone in denouncing Mukade.
Shiratori was also in a heavy mood.
Logically speaking, Mukade should have taken action personally by now…
It's over; the plot is out of control!
From the moment he entered Roran, he used his words to guide the Konoha team in finding the truth. However, first, the visitors from the future changed from Yamato + Naruto to all members of team 7, then the puppet army disappeared, and finally, no one cared about this underground factory…
He was panicked, extremely panicked, and didn't know what kind of storm this butterfly would create.
Now, even if he was told that there was Deidara flying in the sky and throwing his artwork around, he wouldn't be surprised…
Boom!
The underground factory suddenly shook, and not just once, but continuously. It felt like Godzilla was dancing above their head.
"Something happened. It's possible that Minato and others were fighting Mukade."
Choza stepped forward without hesitation and interrupted the incident of the common people forming a group to file a complaint with the emperor.
"Queen Sara, please take the civilians away from here now. It is best to evacuate outside of the city. There should have been a battle in Roran, and it may affect you."
"Okay, now I—"
"Wait a minute, Queen Sara can't evacuate!" Shiratori hurriedly spoke out to stop her.
"Why?"
Choza was puzzled. Sarah, the powerless queen, was not even qualified to be cannon fodder in the battle. Could she be expected to persuade Mukade to surrender? Not everyone can talk!
Shiratori turned his gaze to Sara and said in a deep voice: "Your majesty, you should know how to close the Source of the Ryumyaku, right?"
"I know, but…"
"No buts.… That is, Mukade, who is almost invincible under the blessing of the Source of the Ryumyaku."
(Mukade, whose body was touched everywhere by Sasori: Huh? Invincible? Me?)
"Only by severing his connection with the Source of the Ryumyaku can we defeat him!"
As the situation got out of control, Shiratori no longer cared about performing. He was ready to strike directly at Mukade's vital point, even if it might arouse suspicion from Choza!
The plot is so broken; what's the point of following the process! Push the progress bar to the limit!
"But the Source of the Ryumyaku is…"
Sara was very conflicted.
The policy of using the Source of the Ryumyaku to benefit Roran came from her late mother. If the Source of the Ryumyaku were closed, it would be very difficult to make them active again.
There were many things involved.
"There's no time!"
As the shaking became more intense, Shiratori became extremely impatient, and his words became sharper.
"Are you reluctant to give up the power of the Source of the Ryumyaku? Why? Do you want to take over this factory? Let the people go back and rest for a night and come back tomorrow to work?"
"I… I'm not…"
"Brother Shiratori, that's not what Sara meant…"
Naruto came out to defend Sara.
Shiratori gnashed his teeth and wanted to give Naruto a stab…
How long have you two known each other? You're already talking for her? We have been friends for so many years…
Huh? What? We just met, too?
That's okay.
In fact, there is one thing that Shiratori didn't say, that is, Sara's mother had originally wanted to stop using the Source of the Ryumyaku but was brutally killed by Mukade.
But firstly, now is not the time to provoke Sara, and secondly… Shiratori cannot explain the source of this information.
If knowing the relationship between Mukade and the Source of the Ryumyaku can be explained as speculation after the fact, then accurately stating the cause of death of the former queen… It is completely a charlatan and cannot be explained away at all.
"… Okay!"
Sara gritted her teeth and finally made up her mind: "I believe you; I will let the people evacuate the city and then go with you to close the Source of the Ryumyaku!"
"Wise decision!"
Shiratori gave her a thumbs up.
If Sara still didn't agree, he was going to try to use the Sharingan Genjutsu…
Fortunately, things didn't come to that point in the end.
He is very happy.
… … …
Ten minutes later…
Shiratori felt that he was happy too early!
Looking at the scene of the group of people dancing wildly in front of him, his head was full of question marks…
What is this?
A three-way fight? Konoha ninjas vs. Puppet corps vs… Akatsuki?!
Huh?! Can anyone tell me what's going on with those two guys?!
Shiratori immediately saw the shark-faced man who was as fierce as a god of war fighting against many enemies alone and the red-haired boy who was commanding the overwhelming numbers of red puppets…
Why are they here? Did they travel through time and space?
Choza and Naruto didn't have so many questions. Seeing that their side had already taken action, one of them activated the Expansion Jutsu to stop Mukade, and the other directly joined the battle to besiege Kisame.
Shiratori scratched his head vigorously, knowing that now was not the time to think about these things.
"Do you see that big centipede? That's your Mukade-sama. Stay away from it, and don't go up to it and get killed!"
After instructing Sara, he rushed over decisively.
Over there, Kisame first used Samehada to force Kakashi and Sakura back, then kicked Sasuke, who was holding Chidori, away, and quickly formed a seal to use Water Style: Exploding Water ShockWave to sweep away the army of Parasitic Insects from Shibi Aburame.
Suddenly, he felt a wind behind his head.
"Rasengan!"
After dodging sideways, he sent Naruto, who was attacking by surprise, over with a roundhouse kick.
He laughed with his mouth wide open: "When I saw your companions, I knew that you, the nine-tailed brat, must be here too. Next time, you don't have to shout before using ninjutsu!"
As soon as Kisame finished speaking, he felt the wind behind his head again…
"Tsk! Isn't that enough? Let me see who is looking for death again… Ah?"
He originally wanted to swing Samehada and do a somersault to slash horizontally, but he forcibly restrained his strength, and as expected, he was chopped away by Shiratori.
"Mr. Shiratori?"
Kisame's face was full of disbelief.
Shiratori's expression was even more confused than his: "No… Why do I feel like everyone knows me? And it seems to be very familiar with me…"
Kisame stopped fighting and turned around to run, passing by Choza and Mukade, who were playing a wrestling game, passed by Minato, who was fighting with Sasori's puppets, and casually chopped down two Roran puppets, and ran all the way to Sasori.
"Mr. Sasori, we—"
"Go away! Get out of my sight!"
Sasori was almost tortured to death by Minato.
Although from the scene, these two big guys can't beat each other for the time being, overall, Minato Namikaze still firmly takes the initiative…
Minato walked among the red puppets, feeling as if he was not getting hurt by a single leaf.
Moreover, half of the hundred puppets that Sasori controlled with the Performance of a Hundred Puppets had been chopped down by Minato.
But after Sasori basically figured out the teleportation mechanism of the Flying Thunder God Technique, it became almost difficult for Minato to use his close-range assassination ability.
As for why it is almost…
Looking at the two shurikens stuck in Sasori's head, Kisame almost laughed out loud.
After all, it was the invincible Yellow Flash! Even though Sasori had taken out the human puppet of the Third Kazekage to protect himself, Minato still seized the opportunity and gave him two fierce blows…
If he had not transformed himself into a human puppet, with the only vital part being the core in his chest, he might have died.
"Do you have something to say? If so, say it quickly! If not, get out of here!" Sasori said as he was about to push Kisame aside.
"Mr. Sasori, look at the kid over there…"
"No."
"He is Mr. Shiratori in his youth! If this is Roran from more than ten years ago, then everything that is happening now is something that has already happened to us in the past!"
"What's the meaning?"
"Don't forget, Mr. Shiratori is a little… Um… Narrow-minded, and he holds a grudge. If you don't stop and even attack him when he's already on the scene, maybe… No, it's certain! We will definitely be beaten when we return!"
Sasori sneers at him. Would I be afraid?
So he stretched out his hand and threw five Chakra lines at Mukade, who was fighting passionately with Choza, causing the latter to lie down again. The red-clothed puppet and the Roran puppet also stood still at the same time.
Facing Minato's puzzled gaze not far away, he spoke calmly.
"It's boring, let's stop fighting."
