The Akatsuki members successfully hunted the Nibi, Yonbi, Gobi, and Hachibi in one day.
And this news was sent back to Kumo Shinobu that night.
The first to bring back the news were the Kumo Shinobu that Killer B desperately protected.
When the Fourth Raikage heard that the Kumoto Gorge was attacked, he was furious.
The Hachibi was not only an important strategic force of Kumo Shinobu, but Killer B was also his brother who had fought countless battles with him.
So he immediately ordered his secretary to use the Heaven Send Jutsu to send him to the Kumoto Gorge.
In a very short time, he arrived at the Kumoto Gorge.
However, what appeared in front of him was only a mess of ruins.
The bad news came one after another. The news of the Nibi's Jinchuriki being captured also reached him before he rushed back to Kumo Shinobu.
Kumo Shinobu's higher-ups were shocked, but the Fourth Raikage wasn't in the village.
In desperation, Kitazuki, who had retired for many years, appeared and temporarily stabilized the situation.
The Rock Ninja's reaction was a little slower.
After all, Han was leading his team on a mission, and Roshi was hiding in the Earth Country, his whereabouts were uncertain.
However, the commotion caused by the battle between Han and Scorpion attracted the attention of the residents in the distant town.
The people who arrived there first found the bodies of the Rock Ninjas.
The next day, when the Rock Ninjas arrived, they recognized the identity of the dead.
At the same time, they noticed that Han was captured by the enemy.
Soon after, Kumo Shinobu's Ninjas also found the forest that was almost destroyed in the battle between Hoshigaki and Roshi.
This news was also sent back to Iwagakure at the fastest speed.
...
At the same time, in Wood Leaf, Watergate, who noticed the Akatsuki's actions, finally began the last part of the plan.
Uchiha Clan, Sasuke's house.
Sasuke, who had just returned from training in the forest, heard quarrels coming from somewhere as soon as he stepped into the house.
He flashed a few times and came to the front of the main hall.
At this time, the door of the main hall was tightly shut, and the quarrel was coming from inside.
"Itachi, you should understand that even as the patriarch, I can't turn a blind eye to the thoughts of the clansmen …"
"If you can stand on the side of the family, with the information in your hands, the other higher-ups won't dare to ignore our proposal."
"The current Uchiha Clan just needs a chance to regain its former glory."
Fugaku's heavy voice sounded.
"Naruto has already done enough for us. As for the feelings of our clansmen, they are only insatiable. Human desires are endless."
"Besides, Dad, your idea is just digging your own grave."
"Besides, I won't do anything to endanger the village. Even if you, as my father, ask me to do so, I won't do it!"
Itachi responded with an even more serious tone.
"So, are you planning to betray your clan and stand on the side of Naruto and the leadership of the village?"
"I'm really disappointed in you."
Boom!
The door of the main hall was suddenly pulled open, and Itachi rushed out. His figure flickered as he jumped out of the courtyard.
Fugaku also followed him out.
Fugaku frowned and punched the pillar of the corridor, causing the pillar to shatter immediately.
Sasuke in the dark watched this scene, and his face suddenly tightened.
Sasuke went around the other side of the wall, jumped out, and then rushed in the direction where Itachi left.
Whoosh!
Itachi fell into a deserted street in Wood Leaf and looked at Sasuke who appeared beside him.
"Where is Onii-san going?" Sasuke's voice trembled.
Itachi frowned in front of him and didn't speak.
At this time, Sasuke's emotions were almost out of control, and his black pupils shook and turned into blood red.
He almost roared, "Are you going to go to Naruto and report Dad and the clansmen?"
"You heard my conversation with Dad …" Itachi's pupils shrank.
"Why, why did Onii-san make such a choice? I don't understand. Is this village more important than Dad, Mom … and me?"
Sasuke shouted himself hoarse, and his eyes were filled with anger, but more than that, there was sadness and confusion.
In front of him, Itachi lowered his head, and his lips moved, but he didn't know what to say.
The two stood there for a long time, and finally, Itachi raised his head.
"There are some things that you will slowly understand in the future."
With that, he was about to leave, but Sasuke stopped him.
"If Onii-san really wants to do that, then beat me first." Sasuke looked shocked.
Itachi walked in front of him and suddenly raised his head, and his eyes had become blood red.
The black magatama rotated and condensed into the shape of a kaleidoscope.
"Get out of the way," Itachi's expression changed, and suddenly became solemn, and his blood red eyes met with Sasuke's eyes.
As he stared into Itachi's eyes, Sasuke suddenly felt a wave of panic, and although he tried to suppress it, his body couldn't help but step back.
Itachi glanced at him, and then disappeared beside Sasuke.
Sasuke gradually recovered, and his fists couldn't help but clench.
At this time, his emotions were greatly impacted. Sasuke never thought that one day, his brother would show such an expression to him.
If he had insisted on doing it just now, his brother would have …
After calming down, Sasuke was puzzled. His father should have known that his brother's sudden departure was to expose the words and deeds of the clansmen, but he didn't stop him. Why was that?
More importantly, what should he do now?
It was impossible to change his brother's mind.
Whose side should he stand on …
"Mom!"
Sasuke's eyes suddenly lit up. At this time, the only person who could mediate was his mother.
Even if his mother couldn't stop his brother in time, with his mother's friendship with Yondaime-sama Naruto and Uzumaki Shinna Kushina, things may still turn around.
In his heart, he didn't want anything to happen to his parents, but he couldn't completely side with either side.
Because in this village, there are still things that he cherishes.
Sasuke immediately set off. Before he went out to practice today, he heard his mother say that she was going to go out with Uzumaki Shinna Kushina and Shane.
He went to the most prosperous area of Wood Leaf. At this time, it was almost dusk, and the streets were bustling with people.
However, with the insight of Sasuke's Sharingan, he could quickly identify people.
Soon, he finished his investigation and didn't find his mother, so he thought that at this time, she should be home to prepare dinner.
In a hurry, Sasuke returned home.
However, there was no one in the house, and even his father didn't know where he went.
He began to search in the territory of the Uchiha Clan.
At this time, the sun was about to set, and the sun was setting.
The light that shrouded the whole earth gradually disappeared, and it was time for darkness to fall.
