Everyone admired Itachi's meticulous thinking and Obito's quick wit.
Hashirama thought: Uchiha Itachi... such calm judgment and careful consideration. If he had lived during the Warring States period, Madara would have gained wings like a tiger—the Uchiha might have won!
Madara thought: That dark brat Obito—born an Uchiha yet mastered Tobirama's methods completely. Hmph... He and Itachi could be called the sleeping dragon and young phoenix of our Uchiha!
They continued discussing plans against Kara.
Tobirama said, "Though this bait is perfect, deploying it without leaving traces requires many considerations."
Konan said, "Speaking of black markets... we can't avoid Orochimaru's connections."
Orochimaru said, "I've long since gone legitimate. Past connections may not be useful, but Kakuzu could handle this—his network at the bounty stations is still quite strong."
Shisui said, "How to explain the Divine Tree flower's origin is also crucial. We absolutely cannot connect it to Hidden Rain—it must be watertight."
Tsunade said, "Probably can't avoid suspicion. That Ada's Clairvoyance can see everything, right? When Kakashi transferred the Divine Tree flower, she might have seen that too!"
Everyone looked at Naruto again—regarding Ada's abilities, only Naruto had authoritative explanation rights.
Naruto said, "Ada is someone Isshiki doesn't accept. Isshiki once ordered Boro to dispose of Ada, but Boro was also charmed by her abilities and fell for her—that's why she survived."
"But the fundamental reason is still Amado—he tacitly allowed all this without reporting it to Isshiki."
"Ada hates both Isshiki and Amado, so even if she saw it, she wouldn't inform either of them."
Tobirama said, "Wait—Amado didn't tip them off, allowing Ada to survive. Ada has reason to hate Isshiki, but no reason to hate Amado, right?"
This was everyone's confusion too.
Hiruzen asked, "Also Naruto, the Ada siblings have such troublesome abilities—how did you defeat them exactly?"
"This..." Naruto's expression became somewhat strange.
Tsunade said, "Do you have some unspeakable difficulty?"
Naruto scratched his head. "Actually... sigh, forget it, I'll tell you everything."
Lowering his hand, Naruto said somewhat embarrassedly, "Actually... Ada likes my son."
This unexpected development made everyone exclaim, "What??"
The First Hokage couple even sat down to quietly watch the drama unfold.
Naruto explained leisurely, "Ada is a woman obsessed with romance. Amado modified her body, giving her 'heart-stealing' abilities—any man would be captivated by her. So she can't distinguish whether men falling for her is genuine love or due to her abilities. Ada believes she was deprived of the right to love, so she also hates Amado who created her."
"And then?"
"As mentioned before, Ada's heart-stealing ability is ineffective against Ōtsutsuki. My son was marked with Karma by an Ōtsutsuki, and as the Karma unfroze, he gained an Ōtsutsuki body, so... Ada's ability was ineffective against my son. Plus my son inherited his father's personal charm, so for this reason, she fell for my son..."
Naruto had two sons in his previous life—his biological son Boruto and his adopted son Kawaki who was like a real son. Naruto didn't specify which son he meant.
Everyone sighed. "Well, truly incomprehensible romance-brain behavior..."
Naruto continued, "Though there were unpleasant frictions, Ada was eventually persuaded. As for Ada's brother Daemon, he listens to Ada in everything. Since Ada had no intention of fighting, Daemon obediently complied."
Everyone enjoyed the drama. "So everything was peaceful?"
Naruto said, "Of course not. Considering these two's abilities were too dangerous, we had Amado—who betrayed Isshiki and accepted Konoha's protection—remove the siblings' abilities, returning them to normal people..."
Everyone lost interest. "What? Such a boring development."
Tobirama asked, "That Amado who submitted to Konoha—didn't he cause trouble in the end?"
Naruto said, "He had his own ideas and thoughts different from ninja. His allegiance to Konoha was purely for protection. Based on mutual interests, he helped ninja considerably... It's hard to evaluate this person. Some Konoha ninja died because of his killing machines, but his inventions also greatly enriched the ninja world's combat power. You could say he was both praised and criticized."
"Anyway, after defeating Isshiki, Amado didn't do anything harmful to Konoha. Before the great disaster struck, knowing survival in the ninja world was hopeless, Amado—unwilling to stay and die with the ninja—took his daughter Delta and escaped in a scientifically invented spaceship..."
"But later, when the ninja world was destroyed and I wandered the barren earth... I found the wreckage of that spaceship. He and his daughter ultimately couldn't escape their fate."
Naruto's melancholic expression deeply moved everyone, and they couldn't help but envision that apocalyptic scene.
After a long while, Hashirama asked, "How do you plan to handle Kara? Including Isshiki—will you... eliminate them all without exception?"
Naruto said honestly, "Actually, personally speaking, that's exactly what I want—because in that previous battle, we lost too much. But from the ninja world's overall perspective, Amado's talents still have their uses. Whether to spare him can be discussed later. Currently, we need to use Boro and Victor to obtain clues about Kara's headquarters..."
Naruto's gaze deepened. "Of course... I estimate with Amado's intellect, our intentions probably can't be hidden from him. What will he do? His actions will determine our future stance toward him."
Speaking finally, Naruto's gaze radiated coldness. "Of course... Isshiki must die—a terrible death!"
Naruto had even planned Isshiki's death—he would feed Isshiki to the juvenile Ten-Tails that Isshiki kept, using this to make the Ten-Tails grow into a Divine Tree!
This wasn't just for revenge—Naruto considered that to fight Shiki in the future, and the even more powerful Ōtsutsuki on Takamagahara, the power of Divine Tree chakra fruit was indispensable!
But Divine Tree chakra fruit was controversial, so he didn't mention it before everyone now.
Yet anyone could sense the murderous intent emanating from Naruto.
It showed just how much he truly despised Kara, despised Isshiki!
Naruto slowly rose from the cube. The figures created by Six Paths: Complete Holographic Manifestation all disappeared.
"That's it... meeting adjourned!"
