Naruto: Master of Yin chakra

Chapter 324 324: Kotoamatsukami

Satoru gave himself a thumbs up when he saw the Gedo Statue trapped.

But can Naruto defeat Nagato?

The plot is already completely different; Nagato shouldn't go berserk, right?

However, what has happened has happened, and he still needs to do what he needs to do now.

He needed to collect as much information as possible on the Gedo Statue.

Hmm?

Satoru flew up and kicked a Masked Man, sending him flying.

"The Akatsuki members are really giving it their all!" Satoru exclaimed.

He hadn't expected Obito to show up too.

Shouldn't he be with Sasuke, watching him, at this moment?

He wasn't here to help Nagato, was he?

Whoosh!

"As expected of Konoha's Captain Satoru, I didn't think that Ninjutsu wouldn't require maintenance, but do you still have Chakra?"

Tobi rolled on the ground once, then stood up, a playful expression on his face, looking absolutely confident.

Satoru shook his head from side to side, his neck making 'crack crack' sounds: "Dealing with you shouldn't be a problem."

The others also looked at Tobi.

They all recognized him; this was the Masked Man from the intelligence reports who could use Spatial-Temporal Ninjutsu.

"Damn it, I don't have enough Chakra."

Everyone else's faces looked grim.

They had expended too much stamina, and with the Ninjutsu they had just used, they had very little Chakra left.

Shikaku: "What exactly do you Akatsuki want to do? Do you want to start a war?"

"I know you, Konoha's strategist, are you trying to stall for time to recover your Chakra? It won't go as you wish; this is a good opportunity."

This time, Tobi's playful expression was gone, replaced by a cold sneer.

Boom!

Below them, countless vines, each a meter in diameter, thrashed wildly, attacking the crowd.

Hup!

A figure appeared, quickly smashing the attacks aimed at the crowd.

It was Sakura and Ino.

As Medical Ninja, they had more Chakra remaining.

Whoosh whoosh~

Boom!

Two fists are no match for four hands.

Their attacks were simply not enough to cover all the numerous vines.

Whoosh whoosh!

Satoru threw Ninja tools, severing some of the vines.

"Your opponent is me."

Tobi spat out a giant fireball.

Swish!

Satoru deftly dodged it, but he still had to feign weakness, even as his body rapidly closed in on Tobi... Roar!

Just as the Konoha Ninja and Zetsu's group were fighting, the Gedo Statue let out a roar.

Bang!

It disappeared from the range of the Ninjutsu.

It had lost its target, but the Ninjutsu would not disappear.

The terrain was utterly barren.

Yellow earth covered the sky.

Before Satoru could dispel the Ninjutsu, he could only wait for the calculated distribution of natural energy points, and for the structure to break down over time, allowing it to dispel itself.

Whoosh whoosh!

As the Gedo Statue vanished, streaks of light appeared in the sky.

They injected into the corpses on the ground.

One by one, they opened their eyes.

Tsunade watched the people revive little by little, and while shocked, she fainted from exhaustion.

"Lady Tsunade." Shizune quickly rushed forward to check on her...

"Hmm, it seems you all are very lucky."

Tobi looked at the newly appeared Ninja and spoke.

"But next time, you won't have such a good opportunity."

Whoosh~

A Kunai passed through a vortex, and the Masked Man had already disappeared.

Sakura and Ino, who were fighting the Wood Release, also saw the attacks gradually vanish.

Both of them collapsed to the ground simultaneously.

After healing so many Ninja and fighting Zetsu, they were also completely exhausted.

Swish swish!

Gradually, Ninja kept appearing from the distance.

Guy Team returning from a mission, and Hyuga Hiashi leading Hyuga Hanabi to visit the Taketori Clan, among others.

"What happened?"

...Satoru sat on the Hokage Rock, looking at the busy crowd below.

Pain's invasion was over.

Naruto, just like in the original story, became a hero.

The only difference was that Nagato used the Gedo Statue.

This allowed him to gather some information beforehand.

And he himself was, of course, also a hero, bringing him, the former Acting Hokage, well-deserved honor.

The area where the Gedo Statue had been was now barren, scraped three feet deep, leaving only chaotic piles of earth and a giant crater after the hurricane stopped.

The Konoha Ninja, busy with their work, still discussed his Ninjutsu from earlier; besides discussing Naruto the hero, he was the most talked-about person.

Satoru's ears constantly heard the praises of the Konoha Ninja.

He hummed a tune to himself.

Who doesn't want to stand at the forefront and tell everyone, 'I'm awesome!'

Listening to their praise now, he felt great.

"However, Konoha's crater won't disappear."

Below the Hokage Rock, Konoha had sunk overall, leaning precariously.

It wasn't directly destroyed, but it was indirectly damaged.

Satoru hadn't expected such a drawback.

The crater dug by Pain's Shinra Tensei had been rendered void when Konoha's barrier ended.

And then... well, it just needed some repairs.

Tap tap tap!

Just as he was about to ponder his next step, which was to delve into researching Ōtsutsuki Urashiki, footsteps sounded.

He turned his head and saw Danzo Shimura.

And his two guards.

"Danzo, do you need something?" Satoru spoke without any politeness.

It perfectly matched his current persona.

When Konoha was in crisis, Danzo didn't appear.

Now he didn't even call him Lord Danzo anymore.

Danzo heard his tone but showed no change in expression: "Nothing, I just think you did very well, it's no wonder Hiruzen trusted you so much.

I hope you can continue to maintain this in the future."

Then, without waiting for Satoru to speak, he walked away with his two guards.

This left Satoru puzzled.

"Of course I will continue to maintain it, but what do you mean, Lord Danzo?"

Satoru said to him.

But Danzo had already vanished from sight.

"No, you came all this way just to tell me that?"

Buzz!

As soon as Satoru had that thought, a memory flooded into his mind.

Release!

He dispelled the Chakra he had placed in his mind, and his eyes instantly narrowed, his killing intent making all the trees in front of him rustle.

However, when his gaze passed by Danzo and his companions, he retracted it.

"If your death date was even a little later, I wouldn't have been able to resist killing you, damn Danzo."

Danzo was going to be killed by Sasuke in a few days; otherwise, he really couldn't hold back.

Truth was in his own hands.

Before, it was just words, but now he dared to act.

If Tsunade hadn't fainted, Satoru would have directly acted to drive Danzo out of Konoha.

Now, it just happened to align with the original story, letting Danzo die by Sasuke's hand.

Perhaps this attempt to control him was because Danzo was determined to use his methods to seize the Hokage position.

"Alright, I'll help you become Hokage; I can't be the only one who was a 4.5th, let's make you a 5.5th."

Ultimately, for the sake of his plan, Satoru suppressed his killing intent.

Sometimes he truly admired Orochimaru.

For his own goals, killing a person was never out of malice, but for his objectives.

Thinking of Orochimaru, he also thought of Ōtsutsuki Urashiki in the lab.

He couldn't develop this experimental subject alone.
