Trees Chapter 309 Naruto: With So Many Hokage in the Village, What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

"Ah…"

"This is so damn good!"

Naruto picked up a beef ball with his chopsticks, swallowed it, and let out a satisfied groan.

Across from him, Sasuke held his bowl, his mouth making ‘hss-hss’ noises, clearly struggling with the spiciness of the hot pot.

"Hey..."

"Naruto, are you sure nothing’s going to happen while we’re sitting here eating?"

Sasuke thought about the full-blown villain outside and then glanced at the hot pot in front of him, feeling a little guilty.

On the side of the two of them, the White Zetsu, Tobi, was being nailed to a cross.

"Relax."

"What’s a small fry like Shinno can do?"

"Besides..."

"Our village has four Hokage right now. Nothing major could possibly happen."

At this moment, Naruto was in a very good mood.

It was all because a few minutes ago, after beating up Tobi, he took out the Black Coffin and used Kotoamatsukami at this White Zetsu, who was acting as Obito.

After Tobi was hit by Kotoamatsukami, they immediately asked about Obito's hiding place, the bodies of his parents, and the Uchiha Clan's Sharingan.

He even knew where Rin, Obito's beloved, was buried.

With this information, reviving his parents was practically a done deal.

Was there anything wrong with celebrating such a moment with some hot pot?

As for Shinno.

Dealing with him wouldn’t take any time at all.

Once they finished eating...

They could just go out and one-shot him.

As for Obito...

If Naruto revived Rin, dragged Kakashi along, and took some wedding photos together, Obito would absolutely lose his mind.

Luring him out would be child’s play.

Everything was under control!

"That makes sense."

Sasuke felt happy but also a little scared when thinking about reviving his clansmen.

After all...

He couldn’t guarantee that his father wouldn’t immediately activate Susanoo and beat the crap out of him upon being resurrected.

Not that his father could actually win against him now, but if Sasuke fought back, he might never be allowed back home.

‘Sigh...’

‘I wonder how much money Itachi had saved up by now.’

Thinking of the Uchiha Clan's property, Sasuke felt overwhelmed.

‘If I had known this earlier, I shouldn’t have asked Itachi for so much money back then...’

"Let’s throw in some more stuff."

"After we finished eating, we'll go out and kill that Shinno."

Naruto dumped a few more plates of meat into the pot, his expression completely carefree… as if he wasn’t worried at all that Shinno would run away.

However, in their excitement about reviving their families, both Naruto and Sasuke had forgotten one crucial thing...

They never asked why Obito had sent Tobi here in the first place.

…

Outside world…

Shinno had already mobilized his forces, and his flying fortress was now heading straight for the Land of Lightning.

"Just mere Five Great Nations..."

"Who could possibly stop us now?"

Shinno noticed that neither Konoha nor Amegakure had mounted any counterattack after being assaulted, leading him to assume both villages had already been wiped out.

This only fueled his arrogance further.

"You dare!?"

The space behind Shinno distorted, and Obito suddenly appeared behind him. Without giving the old man a chance to react, he activated Kamui and yanked him into the Kamui Dimension.

"Obito! Great job!!"

When Black Zetsu saw that they had successfully captured Shinno, he was so excited that he couldn't express it in words.

Over the years, it felt like the entire world had been conspiring against them, and every time they tried to do something, some random bullshit would get in the way.

Honestly...

This time, their success was entirely thanks to Tobi drawing Naruto and Sasuke’s attention.

Otherwise, if they had faced those two monsters head-on, they would’ve been beaten to death on the spot.

"Withdraw!"

Obito, who has pulled Shinno into Kamui Dimension, shouted to Black Zetsu, then activated his Kamui and quickly fled the scene.

Otherwise, they might get caught by the yellow-haired guy and Sasuke if they stay there for too long.

The entire Land of Sky’s army froze when they saw their leader get kidnapped by an Akatsuki’s member right in front of them.

‘Hadn’t Shinno-sama just said he’d slaughter anyone who stood in their way...?’

‘So why had he just disappeared?!’

By the time they processed what had happened, boundless rage surged through their ranks.

"Damn it! How dare those filthy Akatsuki bastards kidnapped our Shinno-sama!!"

"Everyone!"

"Fire all Dark Chakra Cannons from the fortress at the Five Great Nations!"

When the people of Land of Sky saw that their leader was captured, they immediately turned their cannons and fired all their Dark Chakra Cannons at the Five Great Nations.

They were determined to make these fools understand that capturing their great leader was the most idiotic mistake they could have made!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…

Countless black beams, like a meteor shower, rained down toward the Five Great Nations.

At the same time, the Scientific Truth Society and the Cult Mechanicus detected the abnormal energy fluctuations in the sky.

After both sides confirmed that it was not caused by friendly forces, they immediately locked onto the target...

Gaara sat in the command center, his expression darkening with every report from his subordinates.

"Holy Son, we’ve confirmed it!"

"Those attacks in the sky were caused by the Land of Sky."

"And just now, we received a report from Sasori-senpai..."

"Amegakure’s base was hit by mutated Chakra."

Gaara tapped his fingers on the table, his fury on the verge of erupting.

He truly couldn’t understand...

‘Where did a mere Land of Sky get the audacity to challenge the entire world?’

‘Was it because of those floating fortresses?’

‘Ridiculous!’

‘Absolutely ridiculous!’

"Relay my orders! Inform our brothers in the Scientific Truth Society..."

"Aim their cannons at those fortresses..."

"Let these country bumpkins witness what true power looks like!"

With Gaara’s command, the communications officers in the command center quickly coordinated with their counterparts in the Scientific Truth Society, aligning their Gelel Cannons toward the Land of Sky’s fortresses.

Temujin gripped his headset, eyes fixed on the screen as he relayed orders through the communicator.

"Set Gelel output to maximum!"

"3...2...1, fire!"

At that moment, the Scientific Truth Society from the Land of Wind and the Land of Snow simultaneously unleashed the full might of their Gelel Cannons.

A sinister green energy dyed the entire sky in an eerie emerald hue...

…

Kamui Dimension…

Obito held the old man Shinno's neck by the throat, lifting him mid-air as Shinno struggled desperately.

"N-No... impossible..."

"How... how can you be... this strong?!"

Shinno was on the verge of breaking down. After being captured by this Akatsuki member, he had been completely subdued by the opponent’s Genjutsu.

Only now did he realize that while creating Reibi...

He had completely overlooked Genjutsu resistance.

Obito's expression was full of disdain. He couldn’t even be bothered to respond to the old man. Instead, he reached for the seal on Shinno’s body.

Roar…

Reibi let out a furious howl, its Dark Chakra flooding Obito with waves of negative emotions.

Obito’s mind blanked for an instant, and suddenly, he found himself standing in the middle of a wedding ceremony.

And the yellow-haired guy kept stabbing him with words.

"Hey hey, look over there..."

"Today’s the day Kakashi-sensei marries Rin-neechan..."

"Quit standing around! Get up and toast them already!"

Obito watched as the woman he loved stood beside Kakashi, so affectionate that his vision nearly turned red with rage.

"No!!"

"This isn’t real!"

"I don’t believe it! This must be fake!"

Just as Obito was about to lose himself in the Genjutsu, Black Zetsu’s voice echoed in his ear.

"Obito!"

"Snap out of it! Hurry and seal that thing inside you!"
