Chapter 573
【“It’s consistent with the report, absolutely correct, it’s Akatsuki!” Hiding in the dark of the forest, Kakashi was concentrating and came to the conclusion after careful observation. Sakura was very puzzled and asked with a serious look: “What’s going on? Why is there even the guy we killed!”】
【“We’ll discuss the reason later. There are eight enemies in total, and each of them has extremely troublesome abilities. Although we already know their specific information...” Shikamaru was about to give orders through the headset, but suddenly heard Naruto shouting Rasengan. 】
【Looking at Naruto who was fighting with the enemy all of a sudden, Sakura covered her forehead with a headache: "What is he doing! He is obviously a ninja, but he doesn't know how to be patient!"】
【"Well, but he also succeeded as a bait... Shikamaru." Kakashi was not surprised at all, and Shikamaru instantly regained his composure: "Group battles are not good for us. The best strategy is to defeat the enemies one by one, so..."】
["Huh! What time is this? Sakura's words reveal a lot of content!"]
["I thought it was all Akatsuki members, but since Shikamaru said that he knew the enemy's intelligence very well, it means that there is They have encountered everyone before, it seems that there is something special here."]
["Is someone pretending to be a member of Akatsuki planning something? Or is this something that Akatsuki did themselves?"]
["I didn't see Afei and the black and white face, could it be them who did it?"]
["Tsk, since he has come into contact with all the members of Akatsuki, why is Naruto still so disobedient? Hasn't he grown at all!"]
["Ha, I haven't heard anyone mention this about Naruto for a long time."]
[""Ninjas are people who know how to be patient", Jiraiya said this to mock you, Naruto!"]
["Where did the mature Naruto go after talking with Nagato? It turns out that it was just a limited-time state!"]
["There is no need to worry about him. Didn't you see that Kakashi has completely gotten used to it? He can even use this to increase the success rate of the mission! ”]
【Shikamaru’s order was passed down, so Naruto, who was fighting hard with the enemy, was grabbed by Choji’s giant hand and taken away from the battlefield. Then Choji joined the battle with the attack of a meat bomb tank.】
【At the same time, other partners also took action. Shino controlled the insect swarm to cover Tendou, restricting his movements while blinding the opponent’s vision. Then Kiba and Akamaru cooperated with a fierce attack to easily knock him down.】
【Gai, Neji, Rock Lee, Tenten and Hinata, these physical ninjas also found their opponents one by one. Relying on the fierce physical offensive, they suppressed all the enemies in a short time.】
【After being scolded by Ino, Naruto moved to the position he was responsible for. When passing a cliff, he saw several buildings on the opposite mountain wall: "Over there, I remember... the training cave used by the lecherous sage and my father when they practiced. ”]
[“Heh, you can tell these people are fake after just two glances. They were beaten by Konoha without any chance to fight back.”]
[“What’s the point of this disguise? Anyway, I can’t use the disguised person’s ninjutsu. Why not just attack with my original appearance!”]
[“Perhaps this is what the person behind the scenes wants to see. By disguising as members of Akatsuki, they attracted a large number of Konoha’s combat forces at once. Maybe they want to take the opportunity to do something in Konoha!”]
[“The training cave, the place where Jiraiya and the Fourth Hokage practiced... Maybe we can go and see it. Does anyone know where it is!”]
[“This kind of place must be under Konoha’s control. How could they let outsiders in?”]
“The training cave, it turns out there is such a place! Lecherous Immortal, why don’t we go there and take a look next? I also want to try the training that my father received. "Naruto said to Jiraiya with interest, but after hearing what Naruto said, Jiraiya frowned and shook his head, with a strange expression: "We shouldn't be able to go there..."
Ignoring Naruto who was pestering to ask for clarification, Jiraiya remembered the topic he had discussed with Tsunade and Orochimaru before, and thought to himself: 'What kind of training cave is this? I have never been to such a place. Like the previous Obiruko, does this place also exist in a parallel world?'
Minato in the belly of the god of death had the same idea, but because no one could discuss it with him, he could only temporarily bury this guess in his heart and focus on the story of the sky curtain.
[After Naruto rushed to Sakura's side, he was scolded again. At this time, Kakashi had completely controlled Scorpion with the ninja dog., and after Deidara launched an attack, he easily blocked it with the Earth Flow Wall. 】
【Sai cooperated and used the Super Beast False Painting to counterattack Deidara. After the opponent easily disintegrated the offensive, Naruto couldn't help but want to attack, but he was stopped because the hand stretched out from the ground grabbed his feet. 】
【Then Sai cut off the hand holding Naruto. The strange thing was that the cross-section of the broken hand turned out to be a mass of squirming white matter. I don't know if they received any signal. At this time, the eight people of Akatsuki stopped and sank into the ground and left the battlefield. 】
【Although they didn't defeat any enemy, they were able to repel Akatsuki, and the group couldn't help but cheer. Only Kakashi and Shikamaru noticed something wrong and looked at the broken hand on the ground thoughtfully. 】
["Why does Naruto suddenly seem childish? He screamed and yelled just because his foot was grabbed by a hand that came out of the ground. Is that necessary?"]
["It seems that my observation is correct. Naruto's temperament fluctuates with the number of companions around him. The fewer companions he has, the more mature and reliable he appears. On the contrary, his emotions become quite unstable, causing all kinds of troubles for others to help him clean up."]
["...Someone is so bored that they can observe such information!"]
["By the way, Shikamaru Didn't they know everything about the enemy? So they should know that they were just knocking out a bunch of fakes. How could those little brats in Konoha be so happy? "]
["Although it wasn't the real person, it's probably related to Akatsuki, so it can be considered as knocking Akatsuki out!"]
["What's with the severed hand? It doesn't look like a human hand. What on earth is the enemy on the other side?"]
[The group returned to Konoha, and Kakashi went to the Hokage's office alone to report the situation to Tsunade.]
