Become the mastermind behind the Akatsuki organization

A few hours later, Team 7 reached the coastline under the cover of night.

This landing was very smooth. They did not encounter any guards or ninjas on the way. They landed in the Land of Waves easily and sent Dazna to the civilian area.

Soon, Dazna took the few people to his home.

There was only a seven or eight-year-old child in Dazna's family, who depended on Dazna for life. The child's father, who was also Dazna's son, died in the struggle against Cardo's tyranny several years ago.

After returning home, Dazna took out a few pieces of dried meat to entertain the group.

After seeing the simple room, the members of Team 7 finally knew why Dazna concealed the content of the commission. Dazna's family really couldn't afford more money.

After hearing the noise, the neighbors around also quietly came over.

After seeing that it was Dazna himself, the neighbors were relieved and told Dazna what had happened in recent months. After listening, Dazna frowned and secretly vowed to build the bridge.

After the neighbors left, Dazna looked at Kakashi and the others, as if he had made up his mind, and said:

"Can I hire you to protect me until the bridge is built?"

"I will find a way to pay the commission later."

After hearing this, Kakashi and the members of Team 7 looked at each other, and after exchanging glances, he slowly said:

"There is no need for commission. The ninjas hired by Kado are Konoha rebels, and we will deal with Konoha rebels."

After hearing this, Dazna was overwhelmed with emotions and took a dogeza posture.

Kakashi reached out to stop Dazna, looked at the jungle outside the house, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said to Naruto and the others:

"Uchiha Itachi is here, let's go outside to meet the enemy."

After that, Kakashi used the instant body technique to leave the hut, and Naruto and Sasuke followed closely.

After arriving outside, several people saw Uchiha Itachi and Kisame who were fully armed. Kakashi and others were not surprised by their appearance.

From the moment they decided to continue the mission, they were ready for battle.

After seeing Uchiha Itachi, Sasuke gritted his teeth and said: "Uchiha Itachi, I am no longer the same person as before. I will show you the results of my training these days."

After hearing this, Uchiha Itachi was stunned at first, and then smiled.

It seems that Shisui has conducted special training for Sasuke these days, but he does not think Sasuke will be his opponent. Sasuke's hatred for him is not strong enough, otherwise he would not have opened the three-magatama Sharingan.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Itachi said slowly:

"The previous lesson didn't make you remember it. It seems that I have to let you recall what happened that night, and add some new memories to you this time."

"The ninjas around you are your companions and teachers. If you break their hands and feet and throw them into the sea..."

After hearing that Uchiha Itachi was going to attack Naruto and others, Sasuke could no longer bear it. He directly performed the instant body technique and rushed towards Uchiha Itachi with a knife.

Uchiha Itachi's eyes flashed, and he threw out a few kunai in his hand, hitting Sasuke accurately.

However, the kunai did not stop after piercing Sasuke's body, but directly pierced into the ground, leaving only the handle exposed.

Uchiha Itachi frowned and soon saw the doorway.

The ninjutsu that Sasuke performed was Shisui's instant body technique. Unlike ordinary instant body techniques, Shisui's instant body technique can leave an afterimage on the spot.

Seeing that Sasuke mastered this level of ninjutsu, Uchiha Itachi felt a little relieved.

As long as he doesn't meet those famous elite jonin in the ninja world, Sasuke at least doesn't have to worry about safety.

Kakashi originally wanted to stop Sasuke, but after seeing Sasuke and Itachi fighting back and forth, he gave up the idea of ​​supporting him.

No matter what Uchiha Itachi's purpose is, the other party has no intention of killing Sasuke for the time being.

Even if Sasuke is defeated, at most he will suffer a little more. They still have to concentrate their strength to deal with Kisame.

After making up their minds, Kakashi and Yamato, who were hiding in the dark, launched an attack on Kisame.

Facing the joint efforts of Kakashi and Yamato, Kisame felt bitter in his heart.

In the case of fighting alone, he was confident that he would not lose, but facing the joint efforts of the two, he might not even last ten minutes.

There was no way, the Thunder Release and Wood Release were too restrained for him.

After Kakashi and Sasuke joined the war, Naruto looked at Kisame and then at Uchiha Itachi, and finally joined Sasuke's team to fight against Uchiha Itachi.

My mother once said that the Sharingan is useful for ordinary ninjas, but it is not effective for Jinchūriki.

Even if Jinchūriki is controlled by illusions, the tailed beasts in the body can interfere with illusions.

To be on the safe side, Naruto borrowed chakra from the Nine-Tails in his body, covered his body with the Nine-Tails chakra, and rushed towards Uchiha Itachi.

Uchiha Itachi was fighting with Sasuke in a sparring mentality. After noticing the Nine-Tails chakra, his face changed slightly.

After retreating a few steps, Uchiha Itachi made a seal with one hand and shouted: "Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Technique!"

Uchiha Itachi spit out several fire bombs in succession, flew towards Naruto's position, and hit Naruto accurately, but with little effect.

The tailed beast's coat was too hard to penetrate Naruto's defense at all.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Naruto quickly approached Uchiha Itachi and punched him.

Uchiha Itachi raised his arms to block, and soon felt the force of the fist, just like being hit by a huge rock, the impact was very terrifying.

After being forced to retreat more than ten meters, Uchiha Itachi looked at Naruto with a little doubt in his eyes.

When did Naruto learn the tailed beast transformation? If he mastered the tailed beast transformation half a month ago, why didn't he use it in the previous battle.

"It seems that your strength has improved a lot."

Sasuke and Naruto said shoulder to shoulder, he could see that Naruto's strength has become much stronger.

Naruto smiled and showed his white teeth: "Same here, you also learned a lot of new ninjutsu, such as this very strange instant body technique."

Smiling at each other, the two then attacked Uchiha Itachi.

After understanding the strength of the two, Uchiha Itachi no longer held back, and began to combine ninjutsu and taijutsu, using all his strength to fight.

Except that the illusion reached the level of Kage, Uchiha Itachi's ninjutsu and taijutsu were not outstanding, and there was not much difference from the general elite ninja.

But Uchiha Itachi can combine ninjutsu, taijutsu and genjutsu and use them at the best time.

This is also the reason why Uchiha Itachi can be rated as Kage-level. Except for a few monsters without weaknesses in the ninja world, most of the other Kage-level strongmen are also like this.

They and the elite jonin do not have much chakra, but they have reached the Kage-level level in some aspects.

Strictly speaking, Naruto can also burst out Kage-level battles at present. He only needs to give his body to the Nine-Tails and let the Nine-Tails transform into a full-tailed beast, and Naruto will have Kage-level destructive power.

After a few rounds of fighting, Naruto and Sasuke felt great pressure.

The two of them could not find Uchiha Itachi's flaws. On the contrary, every time Uchiha Itachi attacked, they would feel very uncomfortable. Even the Nine-Tails in Naruto's body felt very aggrieved.

The Nine-Tails even suggested that Naruto relax his vigilance, and it would take over Naruto's body and defeat Uchiha Itachi.

Naruto directly ignored the Nine-Tails' proposal. He was not at ease to give his body to the Nine-Tails. The Nine-Tails didn't know what to do with his body.

At this time, Sasuke accidentally fell into Uchiha Itachi's illusion and was knocked to the ground by a punch.

Naruto also revealed an obvious flaw because of the communication with the Nine-Tails. After the tailed beast's coat was pierced, his body fell to the ground like a kite without a line.

After getting up with difficulty, Naruto looked at the unconscious Sasuke beside him, and then looked in the direction of Kisame.

Kakashi and the Anbu ninja Yamato could not support him, and he was not an opponent of Uchiha Itachi. It seemed that he had to reach an agreement with the Nine-Tails and let the Nine-Tails take over his body temporarily.

At this time, a figure wearing a fire cloud suit appeared on the battlefield.

This person was none other than Bai Ye, who had been observing the battle for a long time. As the main behind-the-scenes manipulator of the Wave Country's actions, he always appeared at the critical moment.

After helping Naruto up from the ground, Bai Ye said to Naruto:

"Naruto, you just finished your training, and you are fighting against a ninja of Uchiha Itachi's level. Aren't you too arrogant?"

After hearing this, Naruto's face was a little embarrassed, scratched his head and said:

"Senior Bai Ye, I don't want to fight with Uchiha Itachi, but if I want to complete the task assigned by the village, I must fight with them."

"By the way, you go to rescue Sasuke first, he seems to be unconscious."

"Okay, okay..." Bai Ye said a few perfunctory words, and then came to Sasuke. After performing medical ninjutsu, Sasuke quickly woke up from the coma.

After waking up from the coma, Sasuke's eyes were red, as if he had just experienced a nightmare.

Seeing that the people coming were Naruto and Bai Ye, Sasuke breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "Naruto, and Bai Ye senior, did you repel Uchiha Itachi? How long have I been unconscious?"

Bai Ye shook his head and pointed to Itachi in the distance: "We didn't defeat Uchiha Itachi, you see he is still standing there."

Sasuke followed Uchiha Itachi's line of sight and saw Uchiha Itachi standing still.

The originally calmed emotions suddenly became intense again, and he tried to get up and kill Uchiha Itachi.

Bai Ye stopped Sasuke and said bluntly:

"Don't go over and die, Uchiha Itachi is not an opponent you can deal with. Even the Hokage couldn't stop his rebellion back then. Can you be stronger than the Hokage? Let Shisui train you well when you go back."

Hearing this, Sasuke was stunned, and then looked at Bai Ye in surprise.

Bai Ye actually knew about Shisui's existence. Could it be that Shisui, who has become the leader of the Root, has some connection with Bai Ye in secret? Could it be that Brother Shisui did not show up this time?

Naruto also looked at Uchiha Itachi and said to Bai Ye: "Senior Bai Ye, let's find a way to deal with Uchiha Itachi, otherwise we can't leave here. My intuition tells me that he hasn't used half of his strength yet."

"If you can delay Uchiha Itachi for a while, I can let Nine..."

Before Naruto finished speaking, he saw Bai Ye walking towards Uchiha Itachi, and his face changed.

He knew that Bai Ye was a top powerhouse in the ninja world, but Uchiha Itachi was also a top powerhouse in the ninja world, a powerful ninja that Yamato could not defeat.

However, Naruto soon discovered that something was wrong.

Bai Ye walked towards Uchiha Itachi slowly. He knew Uchiha Itachi's strength very well. Except for the long-range Amaterasu that could threaten him, the rest of the ninjutsu was useless to him.

Watching Bai Ye approaching step by step, Uchiha Itachi was not as calm as he appeared.

He knew a little bit about Byakuya's abilities, and knew that this was a monster that could fight the Raikage in physical skills, and could defeat tailed beasts using Wood Release. His strength was unfathomable.

"Byakuya-sama, there is no grievance between you and me..." Uchiha Itachi tried to use mouth escape.

Byakuya rejected Uchiha Itachi's Mouth Escape and used the teleportation technique when he was dozens of meters away from Uchiha Itachi. The next moment, he appeared directly behind Uchiha Itachi.

The long sword slashed straight at Uchiha Itachi, instantly cutting off the kunai used to block it.

The next moment, Uchiha Itachi's body turned into a group of crows, flew away, and appeared on a tree trunk not far away.

Facing such a powerful opponent, Uchiha Itachi did not dare to be careless at all and activated the pupil technique Tsukuyomi.

Tsukuyomi is one of the two pupil techniques recorded by Uchiha Itachi's Kaleidoscope. It can drag enemies to Tsukuyomi space. In Tsukuyomi space, time and space will be manipulated by Uchiha Itachi.

Byakuya had no intention of avoiding Tsukuyomi and entered the illusion space directly.

With a burst of space transformation, he appeared on a red land, his body was bound by chains and unable to move, and Uchiha Itachi's voice came to his ears.

"Bai Ye, I have no intention of becoming your enemy. As long as you stop fighting, I will release the illusion immediately."

Byakuya narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Itachi Uchiha and asked, "If I refuse to stop fighting, what are you going to do, use genjutsu to control me until I die of old age?"

Uchiha Itachi was silent for a few seconds, and then said: "Then Itachi can only make Lord Byakuya suffer a little, I will attack you repeatedly, and it will last for three days."

"Then come on..."

Byakuya smiled, not caring about Uchiha Itachi's threat at all.

Uchiha Itachi frowned, and then began to torture Byakuya with Tsukuyomi, hoping to make Byakuya submissive.

Soon, Uchiha Itachi discovered something was wrong. In the Tsukuyomi space, he should be invincible. Why couldn't these kunai and shurikens condensed with chakra cause damage to Byakuya.

After several attempts, Uchiha Itachi failed to break through Byakuya's defense.

At this time, Bai Ye on the ground suddenly smiled and said: "Uchiha Itachi, you have overlooked one thing. It's not that I can't get rid of your illusion, I just want to see your Tsukuyomi."

Before he finished speaking, the Tsukuyomi space shattered like a mirror, and the two of them returned to the real space together.

Itachi, who had consumed too much chakra, was panting, while Byakuya not far away showed no discomfort. The gap between them was clear at a glance.
