Chapter – 187 Amatsukami, Akatsuki, Uchiha, and Konoha

"Shit!" – Cursing heavily while looking at the incoming monsters, Suijin placed the wooden box containing money in front of Sasori and Kakuzu and quickly took out a storage scroll from the inner part of his cloak to seal the money.

Kakuzu glanced at the familiar box and judging by the size alone, he calculated the possible amount it contained and said, "It seems that you took care of a rather good target!"

While Kakuzu was looking at the box of money, Sasori's attention was on the left arm of Suijin.

'Huh? His left arm was obviously cut away by me, did he attach a fake arm or did he possess a technique to regenerate the said arm?'

In the previous battle between the two, Sasori used his Ice puppet to cut Suijin's arm as well as severely injured the other party, not he sees that the rm seemed to be perfectly intact, so he couldn't help but be surprised.

While sealing away the cash box, Suijin said with a smile, "The two of you will have to forgive us for the upcoming trouble you will be facing!"

Sasori said with a frowned expression, "What do you mean?"

His words didn't fell and the sound of breaking wind appeared from the woods at the back.

And with the sound of breaking wind, the Anbu as well as the Uchiha Police Force shinobi came out of the woods.

The person leading them was none other than Sandaime with his Adamantine Staff in his hand, followed by Uchiha Fugaku, the patriarch of the Uchiha Clan.

Both Kakuzu and Sasori were taken aback by the sudden appearance of such a large force.

Sarutobi Hiruzen may have been getting old, but his reputation is unquestionable.

And even if Kakuzu and Sasori are lawless and rebellious, both of them still have to be very careful in the face of the 'God of Shinobi' and the 'Wicked Eye.'

Puff…

With a cloud of white smoke, the wooden box was sealed in the scroll by Suijin and placed inside the inner part of his Amatsukami Cloak.

After doing the work, Suijin said to Sandaime with a chuckle, "Hokage-dono, I advise you to be careful before you make any move, all four of us are here are Kage level shinobi, it would be better that you think this through."

Hearing Suijin's warning, Sandaime observed the two and instantly the identities of the two flashed were confirmed, 'Kakuzu, S-Class missing-nin from Takigakure, and Sasori of the Red Sand, S-Class missing-nin of Sunagakure…"

Kakuzu has been alive and working as a bounty-nin for decades already, so his information is not that hard to find, and has been recorded in the archives of Konoha, and Sasori is the famous genius puppet master of the Sunagakure puppet brigade, so Sandaime easily recognized the both of them.

While Sandaime was observing the two members of the Akatsuki, Uchiha Fugaku's eyes fell of Homusubi.

Being watched by the Patriarch, Uchiha Shisui, who was wearing the Homusubi disguise was very guilty and nervous, his heart almost came out of his throat, he didn't expect that not only would Sandaime chase, but even the Uchiha Police Force would catch up so quickly.

Neither Kakuzu nor Sasori are idiots and understood that the two members of Amatsukami have probably offended and caused some big trouble that even led the Sandaime Hokage to personally chase after them. At the same time, they were also thinking about how to make their way out of this trouble as staying here would be rather troublesome.

Noticing Kakuzu and Sasori's expression, Suijin said, "I am afraid to scare you by revealing this, but I sincerely believe that there is something you must know before you decide on your further actions Hokage-dono."

"And what is that, your last wish before death?" – Sandaime questioned coldly.

"I am afraid not, but it is of grave importance, you see, the person next to me, the young-looking kid with red hair is Sasori of the Red Sand, I am sure you know this but what you may not know is that he is responsible for assassinating the Sandaime Kazekage of Sunagakure, and is an indirect fuse to starting the third great shinobi war, in fact, you will more surprised to hear that he turned the corpse of the Sandaime Kazekage into a human puppet!"

"What!!!???" – Everyone couldn't help but shout in shock.

"And that's not it, the person with the corpse in his hand is one of the strongest and most experienced shinobi, and probably the oldest one to be currently alive, a member of the Akatsuki Organization, and I am sure you would again be surprised to hear that he attempted to assassinate the Shodaime Hokage-dono of Konohagakure!"

"Nani!!!???"

Hearing Suijin's description of Sasori, everyone exclaimed in shock but hearing the deeds of Kakuzu, the Anbu elites, members of the Konoha Police Force, the Uchiha Patriarch, Sandaime, as well as, Homusubi exclaimed in shock.

As the elites of Konoha, they have more or less heard the names of the two S-Class missing-nin, but the fact that one is responsible for the death of the strongest Kazekage and the other attempted to assassinate the Shodaime Hokage, this is the first time they heard such a piece of serious information.

Not to mention, Anbu and Police force, even Sandaime and the Uchiha Patriarch were highly surprised.

The inexplicable disappearance of Sandaime Kazekage has been a mystery for a few years now, and it was the disappearance of the strongest Kazekage that Suna blamed Konoha and declared war in the name of revenge.

Hearing such critical information, even Uchiha Fugaku has to pay attention to Sasori and Kakuzu.

Suijin suddenly held his forehead and said with a fake tone of guilt, "Ah, I am sorry, I forgot that Konoha and Suna are allies, it seems that I shouldn't have leaked such important information!"

Konoha has already been under pressure from Kumo, now they can't afford to let go of their ally i.e., Sunagakure.

Therefore, Sandaime must catch the culprit responsible for the death of the ally's missing Kazekage, because if he doesn't it would be difficult to explain this to the Yondaime Kazekage and seek assistance from Sunagakure in the future.

With every word that came out of Suijin's mouth, Kakuzu and Sasori's expression turned gloomier.

When Suijin mentioned them killing Sandaime Kazekage and attempting the assassination of Shodaime Hokage, both of them were very surprised and suspicious, they understood that Suijin knows the information about their shadows but couldn't figure out how he knows that?

Sandaime observed the four and finally made up his mind.

One side is the combination of the two missing-nin who attempted the assassination of Shodaime Hokage-sama and killed the Sandaime Kazekage of the allied village, while the other side is the combination of two unknown individuals who dealt with just a mere head ninja of Kumogakure, now that he has encountered such a choice, Sandaime will obviously not allow the first party to escape, there is not even a matter of consideration and the choice is clear.

With that decided Sandaime took a deep breath and shouted, "Don't let the two of them escape!"

With Sandaime's order, the opposite side rushed here, Suijin turned towards the two Akatsuki members who were fuming at him and said with a chuckle, "I am grateful for the two of you acting as decoys for us and hope that you two make it through alive!"

""You bastard!!!"" – cursed Kakuzu and Sasori.

Suijin raised his hand to say thank you and then flickered at the side of Homusubi and whispered lightly, "Let's go!"

Instantly, Suijin and Homusubi ran in one direction.

Uchiha Fugaku's attention was on Homusubi from the start to end, he obviously thought that it was Uchiha Shinichi wearing that disguise, although he couldn't understand how come Shinichi has been acting so quiet, whatever may be the case, as soon as Suijin and Homusubi broke out in one direction, he led the Konoha Police Force and chased after them.

Seeing that the Uchiha Patriarch went after the two, Sandaime led the Anbu members towards Sasori and Kakuzu.

Sasori and Kuroto glanced at each other, and after nodding to each other, both of them turned around and fled in the opposite direction, even the corpse Kakuzu was carrying was discarded and thrown aside.

Homusubi glanced back and noticed Uchiha Fugaku at the tail and questioned in a panic, "Suijin, w-what should we do next!?"

Suijin noticed that Sandaime-sama led the Anbu members to chase after Kakuzu and Sasori, and sighed in relief, "Don't worry, let's just introduce Amatsukami to the prideful and arrogant Uchiha Clan!"

Homusubi nodded but with a great amount of guilt. Although he has made up his mind to take action against the extreme radicals of the Uchiha Clan, when the time really came, he still had hesitation in his heart.

Sighing heavily, he made up his mind inwardly, 'The one doing this is not Uchiha Shisui, but Homusubi, the member of Amatsukami!'

Repeating this sentence several times in his mind, he finally hardened his eyes.

With that decision, two battle circles gradually opened up, the two members of Amatsukami were in the middle of the dense forest, while the two members of the Akatsuki fled downstream along the river.

With Sandaime too far away, Suijin immediately said to Homusubi, "We can start!"

After immediately turning around Suijin printed several hand seals and shouted,

"Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!"

Homusubi also flickered, stepped on the great waterfall, and directly pounced on Uchiha Fugaku.
