Realizing this,
Obito looked towards Kyo's direction, and for some reason, became extremely calm.
After a long silence.
Finally,
He lowered his eyes and said indifferently:
"It's over."
"I lose... Kyo."
"Now, kill me... let me go see Rin."
When he said this,
His tone had almost no fluctuation whatsoever.
As if,
This was the end he had already accepted.
Hearing this,
Kakashi, who was being controlled in the distance, was suddenly stunned, deeply frozen.
His expression showed an instant of reluctance.
But at this moment,
Nothing could be changed.
However,
Kyo did not make a move directly. Instead, he turned his head again, looked towards the Four Kage on this side, and chuckled:
"Everyone,"
"Now, it's time to tell me your answer?"
"Whether to choose submission to Amegakure and Akatsuki, or to choose... to die together with your village?"
As his words fell, everyone once again snapped out of their shock.
And this time,
Almost everyone's expressions had become much more dejected.
Undoubtedly,
After confirming Kyo's identity as the Kitsune Ogre, the oppressiveness in their hearts became even stronger,
After all,
He also had the Uchiha Clan's Sharingan in his possession...
If he wanted,
He could create a terrifying Sharingan army at any time!!
And at that time...
Combined with the Akatsuki, the entire Shinobi World... would have no power to resist.
The innocent civilians in the villages would also face annihilation.
As Kage...
Could they really allow this to happen?
After a long silence,
Finally,
Tsunade was the first to raise her hand, extremely heavily saying:
"Konoha Village... chooses to cooperate."
"In the name of the Fifth Hokage... I submit to Amegakure."
After speaking extremely slowly, Tsunade's expression instantly turned bitter.
Jiraiya and the others beside her looked over, their expressions also helpless.
If it only concerned them, perhaps... they would still choose to die to prove their integrity and protect the village.
But now,
The lives of the entire village rested on their shoulders.
If they didn't compromise like this, all innocent lives would die because of them...
Therefore, this was a choice with no alternative.
After Tsunade spoke, a moment later.
Mei finally lowered her head, dazedly saying in a low voice:
"Kirigakure... agrees to cooperate."
And then,
Onoki looked at Tsunade and the others beside him, and also helplessly shook his head, saying:
"In the name of the Third Tsuchikage... I declare surrender."
After saying this, his face appeared even older.
Finally,
A also lowered his head and slowly nodded, indicating agreement.
The entire scene fell into silence.
Vaguely,
One could hear everyone's breathing, and it seemed someone was sighing.
And at this moment,
Kyo smiled, slowly sheathing the sword in his hand, and said with a smile:
"It seems,"
"All the Kage are sensible people."
"In that case, then our cooperation... is hereby concluded."
"One month from now,"
"We will be waiting in Amegakure for all the Kage to attend the first Shinobi World Alliance meeting."
"If by then you betray today's agreement, or deliberately fail to attend,"
"The consequences... please bear them yourselves."
As he finished speaking,
The Four Kage and others here naturally had nothing to say.
Obviously,
That one month,
Was also equivalent to giving them time to return to their villages and explain things.
After a moment of silence,
Kyo looked up, looked at the Akatsuki's members before him, and smiled:
"Release them."
"The darkness of the Shinobi World is temporarily over, and we, Akatsuki, should temporarily exit the stage."
"Farewell, everyone."
As his words fell,
Kyo turned around, looked towards Obito ahead, and chuckled:
"Let's go."
"Let's have a good chat too, intern."
"Huh?"
As his words fell,
Obito, who had already been disheartened, now completely had no such mood.
He just lowered his eyes, calmly gazing at Kyo, and slowly said:
"No need."
"Let it end here."
"Use that Zanpakuto of yours to end my life."
As his words fell,
Kyo couldn't help but pause slightly, as if he hadn't expected this, then his gaze lowered slightly.
"..."
"Alright then."
"Then... farewell."
Kyo raised his hand and placed it before Uchiha Obito's chest, calmly saying:
"Hado #1: Sho."
Boom!!!
In an instant, a burst of air pressure violently shot out from between Kyo's two fingers, directly piercing through Obito's chest, completely destroying his heart.
This time,
He no longer dodged.
He neither used the intangibility power of Kamui, nor relied on Hashirama's cells.
Instead, he let this immense air pressure destroy his heart.
Just like back then,
When Rin's heart was pierced by Kakashi.
In the silent stillness,
Obito's body slowly fell backward.
His consciousness gradually faded, and in the end, he did not say a single word.
Instead, he turned his gaze towards Kakashi.
And died extremely peacefully.
…
Seeing this scene.
Others were almost numbed.
After all, this masked man had been one of the masterminds from beginning to end, undeserving of any sympathy.
Therefore,
His death was basically only beneficial for this Shinobi World.
But,
Among all these people,
Only Kakashi slowly lowered his head, extremely heavy.
Although not long ago,
He had thought about personally ending Obito,
But at this moment,
When he saw Obito's life disappear before his eyes,
His heart, for some reason, felt even lonelier.
That guy...
Had finally beaten me to see Rin...
In the silent stillness,
Kyo slightly turned back, looked at the Akatsuki's members behind him, and said:
"Let's go, return to Amegakure."
As his words fell,
The Akatsuki's members finally put down their weapons and left the sides of the Four Kage and others, walking forward.
Beneath the bright full moon,
These figures, like their nightmares, gradually disappeared over the horizon.
But,
Although the surroundings were dark,
For some reason, the Four Kage, after exchanging glances, vaguely felt...
That the sun seemed about to rise.
The dawn of Akatsuki in the Shinobi World... also seemed, about to arrive.
