97: Chapter 97 EscapeThe mountains and forests rushed past beneath our feet.
Naruto, holding Anko, leaped and bounded through the forest for miles.
Itachi followed silently behind, like a shadow.
During the bumpy ride, Hongdou felt warm all over, as if she were lying on a cloud.
My eyelids felt as heavy as if they were weighed down by a weight; it was difficult to even lift them open a little.
She found herself being held horizontally by a man, whose arms were strong and powerful.
And she herself.was almost naked!
He was wearing a large coat that smelled of a strange man, which he haphazardly draped over his body and swayed as he ran!
"Um..."
Red Bean was so embarrassed that she wished she could disappear into the ground, letting out a whimper like a small animal.
Her pale face was now so red it could fry a pancake.
She instinctively tried to break free, but her whole body was weak and she couldn't muster any strength.
This movement actually brought the two closer together, allowing them to clearly feel each other's warmth, making it impossible to avoid each other.
Naruto immediately sensed that the person in his arms had woken up.He looked down and met Anko's shy, anxious, and watery eyes.
"If you're awake, then calm down.If you fall, I'm not going to pick you up."
Hongdou was so angry she wanted to bite someone; her throat was so dry it felt like it was on fire, and she could only manage to squeeze out a few broken words: "Put.put it down."
"Put it down?" Naruto scoffed, his steps unwavering."Can you walk?Or crawl?Save your energy, Miss."
"You weigh over 100 pounds, it's quite a burden to carry you."
These words only added fuel to the fire.Hongdou felt both embarrassed and angry, but her muscles were too weak, so she could only close her eyes tightly and pretend to be dead.
Her racing heart and burning skin betrayed her inner turmoil.
The sensation of Naruto's chest throbbing as he ran, and the steady, powerful heartbeat, were transmitted to me without the slightest error.
Each bounce, each powerful jump, felt like an electric shock, making her scalp tingle and her body tremble uncontrollably.
This journey was an agonizing ordeal for her.
Naruto glanced down at Anko, who looked like an ostrich, and stopped teasing her, increasing his speed even further.
On the other side, the desperate meteor hurtled toward Konoha.
Might Guy, carrying Jiraiya, pushed the speed of the Gate of Shock to its limit, leaving spiderweb-like cracks behind him with each push of the ground.
The Six Paths of Pain, like a relentless ghost, relentlessly pursued him.
The animal realm continuously summoned giant centipedes that emerged from the ground, opening their ferocious mouths.
Kai didn't bother with them at all, relying on his speed to narrowly dodge or simply kicking the summoned beasts blocking his way to shatter them, his goal unwavering.
He felt Jiraiya's breathing growing weaker and weaker on his shoulder, and blood seeping through his green vest.
"Faster!"
Kai roared inwardly, and the blue steam intensified.
A few breaths later, Pain, who was chasing in the lead, paused and stopped at the top of a giant tree.
His cold Rinnegan watched the blue streak of light gradually disappear into the distance until it vanished from his perception.
The other five Paynes also stopped one after another, standing silently behind him like puppets without a leash.
Nagato, far away in the tower of the Land of Rain, slowly opened his eyes, coughed violently, and a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
Xiao Nan stepped forward, looking at him with concern.
"It's reached its limit."
Nagato's voice sounded weary.
Konan silently handed over a glass of water: "Jiraiya is seriously injured.The objective has been achieved, and Konoha is temporarily preoccupied with its own problems."
Nagato closed her eyes and leaned against the cold machine.
Jiraiya-sensei.This time, you lost.
Inside the dimly lit Rain Shadow Base.
Space distorted, and Pain appeared, slowly placing Obito, who was limp like a rag doll, on the ground.
Obito was covered in blood, half of his body was twisted unnaturally, his vortex mask was mostly shattered, revealing his bloodied and mangled face, and his breath was so weak that he was almost dead.
Zetsu looked at Obito on the ground, and the White Zetsu exclaimed in exaggerated surprise, "Wow, he got beaten up really badly!"
Black Zetsu said, "He's not dead yet.Hashirama's cells are slowly repairing his body; it will take time."
Pain instructed, "Deal with him."
It wriggled, covering its body with a large number of white spores, like weaving a giant cocoon, leaving only its head to breathe.
The spores secrete a special nutrient solution that slowly nourishes those terrible wounds.
"That's fine,"
Bai Jue chuckled, "He'll climb out on his own once he's had enough sleep."
The Akatsuki organization has a secret underground chamber.
The candlelight flickered, illuminating the distorted snake shadows on the wall.
Orochimaru licked his lips, his golden snake eyes gleaming with feverish excitement.
Before them lay a fully functional White Zetsu body, along with various complex sacrificial artifacts.
Sasuke, clutching the Kusanagi sword, leaned against the shadows in the distance, observing coldly.
"Hehehe.It's time for Death to return what it swallowed."
Orochimaru put on an abstract and distorted mask of the Grim Reaper, and a cold and sinister aura emanated from him.
His abdomen swelled up strangely, and a ghostly figure of the Grim Reaper with a sinister smile slowly appeared behind him!
Forbidden Technique: Corpse Demon Sealing - Release!
Orochimaru, wielding a dagger, horizontally slit open the abdomen corresponding to the location of the Death God's sealed space, and fought and tore at the Death God's phantom!
"come out!"
With a sudden tug, two blurry streams of soul light were finally pulled out from the "belly" of the Grim Reaper phantom—those were his sealed souls of hands and feet!
"Immortal Reincarnation!"
His soul transformed into a purple light, detached from his still somewhat weakened body, and directly entered the prepared body of the White Zetsu!
"Ho."
White Zetsu's body trembled violently, his face began to distort and change, finally settling on Orochimaru's pale, effeminate original appearance.
The hand and foot-shaped orbs of light, as if attracted, quickly entered the body.
He slowly opened his golden snake eyes, moved his newly grown, powerful hands and feet, and his face was filled with an evil smile.
"It's been a long time.to see this complete body."
He felt the complete soul within him and looked towards.Sasuke in the shadows.
"Sasuke-kun, could you please tell me about the current state of the ninja world?"
————
Kakashi temporarily assumes the position of Hokage in Konoha.
Nara Shikaku stood to the side.
An ANBU member appeared instantly and knelt on one knee.
"Report!Latest intelligence from the border!It has been confirmed that Jonin Mitarashi Anko was rescued by the Apocalypse Merchant Guild and is currently being taken to its headquarters by the guild's president, Uzumaki Naruto!"
When the news came, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Konoha Medical Department.
"Red Bean.is she alright?That brat Naruto saved her?"
Jiraiya muttered to himself, his tense nerves relaxing as the overwhelming pain seemed to be delayed, almost drowning him, yet he also felt a strange sense of relief.
"Great.really great."
As long as a person is alive, there is hope.
He slumped back in his chair and spat out a mouthful of blood.
He himself is injured like this, putting immense pressure on the village, but at least, Hongdou is still alive.
He slowly closed his eyes, cooperating with the medical team to work on his wounds, his mind a jumbled mess.
What exactly did those children go through?
