116: Chapter 116 Do you think I'm easy to bully?The air around the round table almost froze because of She Jiu's piercing words.
Mizuno Hakurou gripped the hilt of his sword tightly, and the steam around Terumi Mei grew increasingly hot.
All eyes were scanning back and forth between Naruto and Orochimaru, wanting to see how the host would respond to the question that pointed directly at him as having "malicious intentions".
Naruto's fingers traced patterns on the smooth tabletop, as if the tense atmosphere had nothing to do with him.
He raised his eyes, glanced at the imposing Snake Nine, and curled his lips.
"I'm not one for complicated schemes," he said calmly.
"I think she's pretty, and it's pleasing to the eye to have her around, is that not allowed?"
He turned his head and glanced at Mei Terumi behind him, whose cheeks were flushed with anger, making her even more alluring.
"I think what she just said makes sense, is that wrong?"
"I think she's been wronged, and it doesn't seem like she's faking it.I think she's the victim, and there's more to the story behind that mess in Wuyin."
He shrugged, with an expression that said, "Is this so hard to understand?"
"It's that simple."
His gaze returned to Snake Nine's face, and his eyes sharpened.
"But it's you."
He pointed at Snake Nine with his finger in the air.
"They're asking about your identity and background, why are you bringing up my chamber of commerce?You're rambling and changing the subject."
He leaned forward slightly, his tone undisguisedly provocative.
"Do you think I'm young and easy to bully?"
Upon hearing this, even the shrewd and calculating Onoki's eyes twitched.
That kid is really a scoundrel!
Snake Nine's face darkened.He hadn't expected Naruto to be so arrogant, completely disregarding diplomatic etiquette.
The chilling chakra fluctuations around his body became increasingly noticeable.
Just then, "Croak~"
A sudden caw of a crow broke the silence of the conference room.
Everyone instinctively looked up and saw a black crow with crimson eyes fly in through some ventilation vent, circle silently three times above their heads, and then land precisely on Naruto's outstretched finger.
The crow affectionately nuzzled Naruto's fingertips.
Everyone was stunned.
Where did this crow come from?
Only from Orochimaru's perspective.
The instant his gaze met the crow's crimson eyes!
A strange, scarlet light suddenly shone deep within the crow's eyes!
The three tomoe slowly rotated, connected and transformed, turning into that pattern he was extremely familiar with, even etched into his soul with fear—the Mangekyou Sharingan shaped like a shuriken windmill!
"!"
Orochimaru suddenly jolted!
A bucket of ice water was poured over his head and toes!
That fear, originating from the depths of his bloodline and dominated by absolute eye power, surged up uncontrollably again, making his hands and feet ice-cold, his throat tight, and almost suffocating!
Uchiha.Itachi!
The man's shadow, like a nightmare, enveloped him once again.
Orochimaru's back was instantly soaked with cold sweat.
All the scheming and the coldness were suppressed by pure fear at this moment.
He chickened out.
His throat bobbed as he forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart.He slowly withdrew his gaze from Naruto and Mei Terumi, leaned back slightly, and transformed back into the "gentle" Mizukage of Orochi, lowering his head and remaining silent.
The aggressive aura he had just displayed vanished without a trace.
[Ding!Successfully used evil to fight evil, intimidating the veteran villain Orochimaru, befitting the villainous style, villain value +2000!]
[Recently subdued Mei Terumi and continues to gain her implicit submission; current villain value: 5000 points!]
Naruto felt the system's prompts in his mind and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
With a flick of his finger, the crow flapped its wings and flew to a decorative shelf in the corner of the conference room, where it quietly preened its feathers.
Snake Nine fell completely silent, even lowering its eyes to avoid the direction of the crow.
After the brief incident, the atmosphere of the meeting became even more awkward.
Seeing this, Jiraiya quickly steered the conversation back on track: "Alright, let's put aside irrelevant matters for now and continue discussing the Akatsuki organization."
"Besides Kirigakure, I think Konoha, Sunagakure, Kumogakure, and Iwagakure all share a consensus on eliminating the threat posed by Akatsuki."
Onoki's small eyes darted around as he stroked his beard."An alliance isn't out of the question, but the position of commander-in-chief of the allied forces is crucial to the outcome of the battle, so it should be filled by someone of high moral standing and rich experience."
Just as Onoki was about to speak, and the meeting was about to enter a wrangling phase.
Mutation and regeneration!
Above the center of the round table, the space twisted and rotated without warning!
A pitch-black vortex appeared out of nowhere!
Wearing a vortex mask and a black robe, Obito suddenly appeared above the table, accompanied by ripples in the space!
The one-eyed figure peered through the hole in the mask, displaying an indifferent disdain akin to looking down on ants, and was about to speak, about to utter a well-prepared, highly sophisticated line.
"Buzz!"
The invisible "Binary Array - Heavenly Net" was instantly activated throughout the entire conference room, or rather, the entire headquarters of the Apocalypse Chamber of Commerce!
Countless tiny, ant-like numbers, shimmering with a pale blue light, representing "0" and "1," emerged from the void like living chains, densely covering Obito's entire body that had just materialized!
"Baka?"
Obito's expression beneath the mask changed drastically!
He sensed a completely different, cold and absolute power of rules, entirely distinct from the chakra system, rapidly eroding, repelling, and imprisoning his existence!The operation of Kamui became extremely difficult!
What the hell is this thing?
He couldn't even maintain his elegant posture.It was as if an invisible hand had grabbed him tightly and then hurled him out of the meeting room like trash, throwing him directly out of the barrier's range!
"call out!"
After a dizzying spin, it crashed heavily onto a patch of muddy ground on the outskirts of the Land of Waves.
"Naruto Uzumaki!Ahh .
A roar full of angerThe roar echoed between the mountains and the sea.
The meeting room was deathly silent.
You could hear a pin drop.
Everyone was stunned by what happened in the blink of an eye.
That guy just now.was he the masked man from Akatsuki?
That powerful enemy who attacked the Hokage and possessed bizarre space-time abilities.
Everyone stared in disbelief as Obito appeared, then, like a rejected insect, was enveloped in countless blue codes and vanished from the spot in the next second, leaving only a lingering echo.
Everyone's hearts skipped a beat when they looked at Naruto, who was still holding Mei Terumi's small hand in the main seat with a calm and collected expression.
Orochimaru lowered his head meekly, inwardly screaming, "Holy crap!Obito!You've gone too far with this!"
He lowered his head, disguising himself as a harmless quail.
I'm absolutely not pretending anymore!This place is too creepy!
Onoki had only one thought in his mind: "This boy is unfathomable, utterly unfathomable!A marriage alliance!A marriage alliance is imperative!"
He turned his head and looked intently at his granddaughter, Heitu, finding them a perfect match the more he looked at her.
Jiraiya's lips twitched."This brat.what kind of forbidden technique was that dense, unheard-of attack just now?"
Samui's eyes were gleaming with an almost frightening light; she was practically bursting with urges to rush forward and beg Naruto to rescue Killer Bee!
Gaara's resolve hardened: "Follow me, Naruto, and live to ninety-nine!"
Temari, observing the subtle shifts in the atmosphere on the field, felt a growing alarm bell ringing in her mind: Something's not right, absolutely not right!Rival +1!
Especially Samui's eyes, which seemed to want to devour Naruto, and her exaggeratedly mature figure.Looking at himself, he felt his threat level skyrocket.
Naruto gently patted Mei's hand to reassure her, then glanced at everyone and said.
"Alright, the annoying fly is gone."
"Shall you continue?"
