Cap 230: I'm going to beat you back to righteousness!
Cap 230: I'm going to beat you back to righteousness!
"Exactly" - answered Zetsu with neutrality.
"Since we have our prey here, it's time for us to start the final phase..." - said Pain with neutrality - "And I don't expect any surprises with this, Zetsu"
"I can feel the presence of Nibi in her," Zetsu responded with disdain.
"Then let's begin," said Pain as all Akatsuki members, except for Konan, entered the battlefield.
* * * * *
"You finally appear, Nibi" - said Pain as he appeared in front of Kumo's two Jinchurikis.
"Heh" - Yugito only smiled with disdain as she disappeared in a smokescreen.
"What?!" - Pain opened his eyes in surprise when he saw this especially because he no longer felt Yugito's presence anywhere - "Zetsu!"
"Less yelling, more fighting!" - exclaimed B, who was not only recovered, but also much stronger than ever.
"What's going on?!" - exclaimed Pain with surprise that quickly turned to fury.
"Your defeat! Yeah!" - exclaimed B as he used full possession of his Bijuu.
* * * * *
"Impossible! I felt it!" - exclaimed Zetsu as his expression distorted.
"I'm sorry to tell you that you don't have time to think about other things," said Sasuke as he appeared before the half-white, half-black entity.
"Uchiha..." - snarled Zetsu with disdain as he hurled himself at Sasuke.
* * * * *
"I didn't expect this..." - said Obito as he looked at the woman in front of him - "Although I have to admit it's not a very pleasant surprise, Uzumaki Kushina"
Kushina was not alone, next to her were Kurenai, Tsume and Shizune.
"I could say the same thing..." - replied Kushina as she sighed with regret - "I never thought you'd end up like this Obito..."
". . ." - Obito was only silent for a few seconds before he burst out laughing as his voice began to change to a much younger one - "As you would expect from a high level Censor..."
Obito slowly took off his mask, showing his appearance to those present.
"Obito?!" - exclaimed the women of Konoha in surprise.
"Ah... So many familiar faces" - said Obito as he burst out laughing.
"What happened to you, Obito?! - exclaimed Tsume as she saw how much the tender boy she had known years before had changed.
"Oh, many things, Tsume-san," answered Obito with a smile on his face, "like a stone crushing half my body... the other thing that happened to me was seeing with my own eyes how the woman I loved was killed by the one I thought was my best friend. ...but let's leave that for another time...now we have to fight and I hope you give everything you have because if you don't attack me to kill, I will be the one who kills you... I am sure that the Kyubi no Kitsune will enjoy seeing your lifeless bodies".
"Obito... you've gone too far off the track..." - said Kushina seriously as she clenched her fists - "So I'm going to give you the thrashing of your life to get you back on the path of righteousness"
"Pff~!Haha~!" - Obito could not contain his laughter when he heard this although his expression quickly transformed into a monstrous one - "How dare you say that everything I have done to see her again is wrong!"
Obito's fury could not be contained when he heard this while he looked at the redhead with coldness - "I always resented that attitude of yours, Kushina... I guess today I'm going to correct it for you and don't worry, we need you alive so you won't die... but I don't promise anything for the other bitches"
"Okay, I'm going to enjoy hitting this bastard" - said Tsume with disdain while Kuromaru grunted fiercely.
* * * * *
"Hyuga Hinata... Yamanaka Ino..." - said Menma neutrally as he looked at the girls who were familiar to him - "The other rookies along with Kiba's dual-sexuality girlfriend, do you think that because I'm the same age as you, you can beat me? Do you really think that? If so, then you're wrong... very wrong..."
"Why don't you just keep quiet and let us beat you up?" - Kiba asked coolly.
"Strong words for someone who is only good for getting beaten up," answered Menma with disdain.
"Okay, this is personal," exclaimed Kiba as Akamaru ran beside him.
"Don't let him get into your head, Kiba-kun," said Haki as she placed her hand on her boyfriend's shoulder.
"Okay, I'm sorry about that," sighed Kiba as the others nodded
* * * * *
"I didn't want to do this but I don't have any other option as it seems..." - said Pain as he saw all the fronts were victories for the Allied forces.
"B! Don't let him finish his Jutsu! - shouted Gyuki in fear as he recognized the hand seal that Akatsuki's member was making, after all, it was something all Bijuu knew on an instinctive level - "Don't let that wake up!
"That?!" - said B in surprise, he had never heard the Bijuu inside him speak with such fear.
"There's no time for that!" - exclaimed Gyuki - "That idiot is about to release something that should not be released!"
"You still haven't told me what you're talking about, Gyuki! - said B seriously - "What is it that scares you so much?!"
"Kuchiyose: Gedo Mazo!" - exclaimed Pain as a huge smokescreen appeared on the scene.
"Too late..." - murmured Gyuki with regret. "That thing is already here..."
"ROAR! - The roar of a beast echoed through the place as the earth began to tremble.
"What the hell is that? - he exclaimed in fear at the sound of such a roar.
"Gedo Mazo... the shell of the original being..." - said Gyuki seriously as the smokescreen disappeared, revealing a hideous silhouette of a grayish entity that seemed to have a blindfold over its eyes - "This is bad... You don't have to let it get us, B! If it does, then we're dead!"
"Tell me some good news, friend," said B seriously as he clenched his fists tightly.
"The seal of the Gedo Mazo is still not completely broken, that means it doesn't have all its power" - said Gyuki seriously - "That's why if we fight with everything we have, we can get out alive... but you have to activate the Seal that Kurama gave us in order to fool that thing"
"What about the others?" - asked B as he looked in the direction of Kumogakure no Sato.
"Don't worry about them... the Gedo Mazo wants us," Gyuki answered seriously. "That thing moves by instinct... and only wants to be the original being again... that's why before it attacks Kumo or somewhere else, that thing will launch itself against us"
"Ok..." - nodded B as he watched as Gedo Mazo silently watched him, he could even feel how it seemed to be licking his lips.
"Remember B... fight with everything you have while we make time for the seal to activate" - said Gyuki seriously only to be interrupted by the Gedo Mazo who had thrown himself at them - "Here it comes!"
"ROAR!" - The Gedo Mazo didn't wait because in less than a few seconds he was halfway to the Hachibi Jinchuriki.
* * * * *
"What the fuck is that?!" - exclaimed Kiba in terror at the sight of Gedo Mazo.
". . ." - Menma looked in the direction of the Statue he had seen so many times at Akatsuki's base and finally understood what Pain was trying to say - "Interesting"
"You better not look away, traitor," said Neji as he threw a punch with his juken only to be answered with a snort - "Do you really think I would be so amateurish as to make a mistake like that?"
* * * * *
"Oh~? I see our leader finally called for the heavy artillery" - said Zetsu as he burst out laughing only to retreat at great speed when he felt the heat start to rise in his feet - "It's rude, Uchiha..."
"Hmph!" - Sasuke responded with a snort as he frowned at how slippery his opponent was, although he also had to admit that something inside him seemed to feel repulsion for the Gedo Mazo in the distance.
* * * * *
"So that's what the Gedo Mazo looks like in action..." - said Obito as he burst out laughing with his intangible body - "Brilliant..."
"Stop running away and come and get your life's thrashing, you little brat," said Tsume coolly.
"No, thanks, I prefer to enjoy the view while waiting for the opportunity" - said Obito calmly - "The opportunity to annihilate you once and for all"
"Great words for someone acting like a ghost" - snorted Kurenai with neutrality even though inside she was trying to find some solution for her situation because Kushina's seal wasn't helping as much as they thought.
* * * * *
"Gedo Mazo..." - murmured clone Kurama as he frowned because it was obvious that things had taken a turn for the worse, not to mention that the girls were on the battlefield, making things even more complicated - "I have enough power to intervene in case things go to shit..."
