Chapter 1037: Preparing for the opening
Sasuke fought hard, and Su Xiao waited for news.
Su Xiao was sitting on a tree branch, holding a tablet in his hands. He was playing a puzzle game to pass the time.
Next to him, Bubtni and Amu stared at each other again, and there was lightning between them again. This time, it was difficult to determine the winner, and most importantly, the loser would have to eat the tree.
Karin had regained consciousness by now and was a little nervous. After all, Bubtni and Amu's fierce gaze was too scary, she even seriously thought about them becoming enemies with each other.
As for the fight and why Su Xiao wasn't going to join the fight from the beginning, it was very simple — he was injured. As for Karin's bite to recover, Karin was currently half exhausted, and if he also bit her, she would most likely die.
*Boom!*
Su Xiao looked in the direction of the explosion and saw a flood of blood-red chakra.
*Roar!*
A powerful roar reached his ears, and Su Xiao immediately jumped onto the tree's crown.
Large chunks of the bridge and water from the river flew in the air due to the collision of red and purple energies.
— He doesn't seem to have a chance.
Even from this distance, Su Xiao could sense how strong the nine-tails ' chakra was.
And beyond that, Su Xiao could see Gamabunta's huge figure. If it was this toad that was taking part in the battle, then Fukasaku and Shima were also fighting in addition to her, and if the contractors were also included, then Su Xiao clearly shouldn't have rashly entered this battle.
The best outcome of this battle would be to capture Naruto, but at the critical moment, the nine-tails in Naruto's body would break out. The Nine-tailed One was the strongest tailed one and was on a completely different level.
After realizing that there was no chance, Su Xiao no longer hesitated and decided to go to Akatsuki's hideout in the Land of Fire.
As for whether Sasuke would die or survive, it had nothing to do with Su Xiao. It was Obito who wanted Sasuke to use, not him.
What Su Xiao had to do now was wait for the next shinobi war to start. Basically, he did everything he could. Now, he only needed to deal with some trivial matters, which was to pressure the five main shinobi villages and force them to unite so that they would end up declaring war on Obito as quickly as possible.
Su Xiao had already attacked and killed two Kage, which put a lot of pressure on the five main shinobi villages. Hidden Cloud Village and Hidden Mist Village will choose new Kage soon, after which they will team up with other shinobi villages..
Su Xiao killing the Raikage and Mizukage wasn't a blind choice.
Of course, Mizukage's murder was easy to explain — they had been enemies for a long time.
Among the five main shinobi villages, only two disapproved of the alliance, and those villages were: Hidden Cloud Village and Hidden Mist Village.
Hidden Cloud Village would never have decided to join forces without a lot of pressure. As for Hidden Mist Village, due to its geographical location, it would never get involved in a war if it didn't have to concern them in any way.
But now, the Kage of those two villages had been killed, making them much weaker. For them, the best choice right now was to team up with other villages, which would prevent other villages from taking advantage of this opportunity.
Su Xiao basically did everything he could. He couldn't fully control the five main shinobi villages.
Fortunately, a war in this world was just around the corner.
But what Su Xiao was most worried about wasn't the main mission, but his mission as a Hunter.
As Su Xiao advanced through the forest, he felt a headache. He killed many trespassers, but for the first time, Paradise designated the trespasser as an " outsider».
As a Hunter, Su Xiao received certain privileges, but because of this, he often had to deal with strange things.
[Hunter's Mission: Eliminate Alien #TQ-9670.]
The number and letters of this outsider made Su Xiao think that his opponent was someone from the Apocalyptic Paradise.
Su Xiao had the impression that the Apocalyptic Paradise nurtured cowardly contractors, or so the fines indicated.
The contractors from this Paradise were more like flowers from greenhouses that were protected from wind and rain.
However, not all the contractors from Apocalyptic Paradise were cowards, at least the Queen wasn't. Not only was she smart, but she was almost able to survive his most powerful bombs.
Of course, this was just Su Xiao's guess, and what he was most interested in right now was where this outsider was currently located.
He didn't show up at the five Kage meeting, and now that Naruto was fighting Sasuke, he never showed up on stage. If he didn't come out of his hole, Su Xiao simply wouldn't be able to do anything to him.
— He might be hiding in a village somewhere?
This was the biggest headache for Su Xiao. Every time he received a Hunter mission, the biggest challenge was finding the intruder.
Fortunately, it wasn't without its advantages. Zetsu's range of perception was huge. Su Xiao might be able to get some clues from Zetsu, but Zetsu was currently on Obito's side. Although he was a member of Akatsuki, if Su Xiao wanted to get any information from Zetsu, he had to make a deal with Obito first.
After all, Zetsu will only obey Obito and Madara's orders.
But in a very short time, Obito will ask Su Xiao for help, and then he will have a good opportunity.
Su Xiao quickly ran through the forest. Since Karin was injured, Amu was carrying her.
About two hours later, Su Xiao arrived at Akatsuki's hideout, an underground base.
The base was dead silent. Su Xiao checked the seal on the entrance and didn't see any traces.
After that, he looked at Bubtney, but he shook his head, which indicated that there was no one in the base.
— Kisame went to catch eight-tails, so his absence is understandable, but where did Deidara go??
Su Xiao sensed that something was off. Deidara was supposed to distract Tsuchikage, and then he was supposed to retreat.
Judging by the success, Deidara should have been the first to return to base.
Su Xiao wondered if Deidara had died at the hands of Tsuchikage...
This option should not have been ruled out.
Either Deidara was trying to make his bombs more powerful right now, or he died at the hands of Tsuchikage.
As for capturing Deidara, Su Xiao didn't even think about it. This guy's biggest dream is to find a strong enemy and prove that his art was very powerful.
Could someone have captured such a guy? Su Xiao didn't believe it.
Except that Deidara was really captured because Tsuchikage knew Deidara's strengths and weaknesses too well.
In any case, the situation with Deidara would clear up after Obito and Zetsu returned, so Su Xiao decided to put this matter aside until they arrived.
After walking deeper into the base, he found a small room that was about ten square meters in size.
After locking the door, Su Xiao sat cross-legged on the simple wooden bed.
After that, Su Xiao started taking out treasure chests from the inventory, there were four in total.
One was dark purple quality, it came from Mei Terumi, another was pale gold, it came from Darui, another one came from killing Kito Hozuki, it came from gold, and finally a legendary quality chest came from Raikage, Hey.
The Mei Terumi chest was a bit embarrassing for Su Xiao. Even if Zetsu helped him during the battle, which caused the reward for winning to be reduced by 40%, this chest should at least be of pale gold quality, but not dark purple in any way...
But there was no point in thinking about it. Perhaps he would understand when he opened this chest, but Su Xiao had the most hopes for the legendary Raikage chest.
This was the first time he had obtained a chest of this level.
Su Xiao impatiently picked up the dark purple chest, took out a cigarette with a practiced movement and lit it with his lighter, then exhaled a stream of light smoke.
