Chapter 85 After the rain, the sky is clear
At the same time, several kilometers away from the Akatsuki organization, Black Zetsu and Danzo, who had been swimming underground for a long time, finally resurfaced.
As soon as Danzo came out, he knelt on the ground, gasping for breath. Many of the wounds on his body were broken open, and his injuries were even more serious.
After a long pause, Danzo finally asked, panting, "Who are you? Why did you save me?"
Black Zetsu was silent for a long while, resisting the urge to slap Danzo and call him a waste, and said with suppressed temper, "You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know: we have the same goal."
Then he added viciously, as if he was explaining it to Danzo, but also as if he was talking to himself.
"Shiba Kiyokawa, and Akatsuki, we're not done yet!"
As the sun sets, the long day is finally coming to an end. No matter how unwilling Black Zetsu is, he has to admit: he was completely defeated in today's game!
The Rain Country was completely taken over by the Akatsuki organization, and Nagato was unable to turn evil as he wished, and he even lost two White Zetsu with advanced intelligence!
Two plants! That accounts for one third of his underground inventory!
This loss made Black Zetsu so heartbroken that he could hardly breathe.
At the same time, after sunset, Shiba Kiyokawa was actually summarizing and reviewing today's game.
Today's long day has come to an end. Although the final result is gratifying, there have been many thrills and twists and turns in the process.
He and his opponent both had their share of clever moves and mistakes.
The best move he made as the first chess player was to launch an offensive in advance and strike first to gain the upper hand!
Launch the attack before Hanzo and Danzo complete their conspiracy, catching them off guard and preventing them from gathering together, thus gaining the upper hand!
However, the next move he made did not yield a good result.
He brought Nagato and Kakuzu with him because he actually wanted to go fishing.
Kakuzu's ability to sense hearts can locate Black Zetsu and White Zetsu.
If the enemy takes the bait without warning and gets close to Nagato, he will have a chance to seal Black Zetsu with the combined strength of everyone on the front line!
It’s a pity that man proposes, God disposes.
This move didn't work out in the end, otherwise there would have been a chance to directly finish filming the Infinite Tsukuyomi drama!
Instead, his opponent seized the opportunity and almost defeated him!
He really didn't expect Black Zetsu's sudden change of home.
Leaving Yahiko behind was really a helpless move.
Because Yahiko was too stubborn and insisted on not agreeing to start a war. At the same time, as the former leader, Yahiko had a certain prestige in the organization. Keeping him on the front line would have a negative impact on morale and command.
I thought that guarding the house was a way for him to make use of his remaining energy, but I never expected that it almost led to a disaster.
This was a good move by Black Zetsu.
But in the end, Shiba Kiyokawa took advantage of his opponent's greed and completed a thrilling comeback!
Black Zetsu was too greedy. He was reluctant to kill Yahiko directly, but wanted to use White Zetsu to parasitize Yahiko.
At this time, Shiba Qinghe didn't know that Black Zetsu was actually forced by him.
Now this world line is different from the original, and Yahiko is no longer the only person who has a huge influence on Nagato.
Black Zetsu was also worried that killing just Yahiko would not be enough to bring down Nagato.
What he was thinking was that after parasitizing him, not only would he kill Yahiko, he would also manipulate things to put the blame on Shiba Kiyokawa and make Nagato completely deserted by everyone!
Little did he know that this gave Shiba Kiyokawa a chance to counterattack!
In the past month, Shiba Qinghe practiced the sealing technique every day, just for this moment!
He took great pains to create the Three-Phase Sealing Technique, which was intended to seal Bai Jue.
The poison sac that sealed Hanzo was just a scam, but sealing White Zetsu was definitely a professional match and the needs were met!
Just like Cinderella's feet matched her dancing shoes, the author of 3D Zone met Tifa, which was a good match.
In the end, Black Zetsu failed to kill Yahiko and instead gave his opponent two White Zetsu!
Although Yahiko is still in a coma, the injection of White Zetsu has already repaired his wounds, putting his body out of danger.
The next question is how to separate the White Zetsu, or more accurately, extract the White Zetsu's consciousness and soul from Yahiko. If it succeeds, not only will Yahiko be fine, but he may even turn a disaster into a blessing and become even stronger.
It can be said that both sides had their own highlights in this game, but in the end, Shiba Kiyokawa was better prepared and won the game!
At night, the surviving members of Akatsuki used ninjutsu to repair some of the houses, and the rain that had been falling all day stopped at this time.
The sky of the Rain Country finally cleared of the haze.
The sky clears up after the rain, like a new life!
That night, Shiba Kiyokawa did not rush back to the northern front, but stayed in the base to help treat the wounded and organize emergency repairs.
After a busy night, he only took a short nap in the early morning. When he got up early the next morning, he was ready to leave and return to the north to take charge of the overall situation.
But at this time, Uzumaki Xiangye suddenly came to find him, looking a little haggard, and seemed to want to say something but stopped herself several times.
"What's wrong, Sister Xiangye? You don't have to be so reserved in front of me."
Shiba Kiyokawa took the initiative to speak to comfort him.
Xiangye mustered up the courage to say, "Qinghe, please go check on Nagato again, he's still not in a good condition.
I…I don’t know how to persuade her, I’m really useless.”
As Xiangye spoke, she lowered her head, as if she was in deep self-blame.
With such a soft and gentle personality, it is no wonder that she was bullied so badly by the Grass Ninja in the original work.
Upon hearing this, Shiba Qinghe took the initiative to step forward, gently raised his hand, and helped wipe the tears from her cheeks.
This action immediately made Xiangye blush.
"It's okay, Xiangye-sister, take me to see Nagato, and I'll help persuade him.
Don't blame yourself, you were our biggest contributor yesterday! Without you, we would all be doomed."
Xiangye looked up in disbelief and looked at Shiba Qinghe, "Really?"
"Really!" Shiba Kiyokawa answered firmly.
I have read the original novel. Without you, all of us would have died except Xiaonan.
Others only saw how handsome Shiba Kiyokawa was when he sent Nagato flying with his personality-correcting punch, but they had no idea how dangerous Nagato was as he trembled and formed hand seals at that moment!
After reading the plot, Shiba Kiyokawa knew very well: that seal was most likely a summoning technique!
The psychic art of summoning the Outer Path Golem!
At that time, the Rinnegan was trying to control Nagato and summon its own supporting components.
If successful, the tragedy in the original book will be repeated in this world!
Fortunately, Nagato in this world line has many more bonds that did not exist in the original work!
A red string called family affection tied him up, and his admiration for his relatives temporarily suppressed the control of the Sage's Eye, giving Shiba Kiyokawa a chance to correct his personality.
So Shiba Kiyokawa's gratitude at this moment is sincere!
Saving Xiangye and fabricating an identity for her became the key to overturning his fate and turning the tide.
But Uzumaki Kaori didn't know this.
At this moment, facing Shiba Qinghe's solemn thanks, her heart suddenly beat faster.
This was the gratitude, respect and return that she had never received despite all her efforts in the Kusagakure Village.
She suddenly thought greedily: How great it would be if I could meet Qinghe and Xiao earlier...
