Chapter – 366 Where is Bee?

'Kuchiyose: Gedo Mazo!'

With the support of a Shiro Zetsu (White Zetsu) Clone, Nagato stood up again and the first thing he did was to summon Gedo Mazo.

Poof…

Roar…

With that Gedo Mazo was back again but Nagato did not initiate to make an attack, the purpose of summoning Gedo Mazo was to ensure their safety.

With Nagato back on his (Zetsu's) feet, and the reappearance of Gedo Mazo the situation on the battlefield changed.

On one side stood Konan, Uchiha Shinichi, Zetsu, Biwa Juzo, and Tobi under the leadership of Nagato.

On the second side stood, Hatake Kakashi with Might Guy's support, Hyuga Kuroto (Sandaime Kazekage Puppet), Uchiha Shisui, as well as several Kumo Jonin under the leadership of Jiraiya.

Finally, on the third side stood only Homusubi under the leadership of Yama. Even though there were only two of them on the side of Amatsukami but no one dared to underestimate the two of them. Overall, the third side still had the most deterrence.

The second strongest party was obviously the Akatsuki side or perhaps even rivaling Amatsukami.

Yama stood silent, no movement from him. Nobody could guess what he was thinking. There was no reaction even after the appearance of Gedo Mazo, it seemed as if the appearance of Gedo Mazo changed nothing.

Although that was not the truth, only Homusubi and Yama knew their exact situation. Homusubi was severely lacking in Chakra because of the continuous battle against Konan and against the shinobi of tri-Alliance, especially because of the use of Tsukuyomi.

And Yama's state needs not to be mentioned, even slight movements were very difficult for him.

Yama understands this better than anyone that with the appearance of 'Obito' and Zetsu killing Nagato is now no longer possible, especially given his condition.

He can have Homusubi use Amaterasu on the enemy but it would still be useless and only further endanger his life.

Therefore, rather than focusing on killing Nagato, his current objective is to figure out how to retreat.

The biggest problem is that he can't allow Obito or Konan or Zetsu to figure out his current condition otherwise there is a very big chance that the two of them will pursue him to kill him.

Konan is not that dangerous even with her strongest of techniques, but Obito? Obito is indeed dangerous.

'But I don't think that Nagato will insist on continuing the battle… especially because of the presence of tri-Alliance!' – Yama thought while calculating various things.

After a bit of objective thinking, Yama took the initiative to break the silence, "I impressed to see that someone in the Akatsuki Organization has more brain rather than just brawn… However, Nagato… you should be very clear about your current situation… it's highly unlikely that the disintegration of your body will stop even after shredding the inflicted part… and even if you somehow manage to stop the disintegration you still won't be able to do anything, especially not with that pathetic state you are in."

"Are… don't look at me with such intense share Yama-sama… I… I will blush!!!" – Tobi said with an embarrassed aura.

But no one laughed at him other than Shinichi.

"Hahaha…" – Shinichi.

And Shinichi suddenly became the target of everyone's stare and had to shut his mouth.

From start to finish, Nagato did not turn his gaze from Yama, and upon hearing Yama's words face that was the only part not covered by Zetsu Clone became gloomier. This is because he really couldn't think of a counter to opposite's words as they were more or less spot on!

Roar…

His emotions even affected Gedo Mazo behind him… but he calmed himself by taking a deep breath and asked a question with a solemn expression, "Why is Amatsukami attacking us? What is your purpose of invading here?"

Tobi was surprised upon hearing Nagato's questioning.

Tobi doesn't have an accurate understanding of Yama's strength but based on what all he has seen and the fact that nearly the entire Amegakure has turned into ruins because of the battle between the two he has to at least consider the worst the worst situation here.

According to Tobi, 'Pain, the self-proclaimed God, is indifferent towards all, yet here he was not denying Yama's words rather questioning him about his purpose? Does that mean what Yama said is true after all? Would it really be that difficult for Nagato to survive? I suppose I will wait and see. If what he said is true then I think I have no other choice but to do that…'

Questioned by Nagato Yama did not give an answer but just chuckled lightly, "Hahaha…" – This is because he understands that the more ambiguous attitude he shows here, the more he can confuse everyone and mislead their judgment of him. At the same time, the more doubtful he can make everyone the better his overall situation will be.

Hearing Yama's chuckle both Nagato and Tobi raised their eyebrows in confusion.

A mysterious, powerful, and unpredictable enemy with unknown intentions and goals is undoubtedly a headache, someone they can't be careless against.

…

While Akatsuki and Amatsukami were having a stare-off Jiraiya and the others of the tri-Alliance had a gloomy face. The two parties have completely ignored their existence.

Although it's not such a bad thing and it will probably keep more of them alive but Jiraiya was worried.

The reinforcements from the Akatsuki side have already arrived, yet there is no sign of anyone from the tri-Alliance coming.

As per the initial planning, the main forces of this raid were supposed to be the three Kage, Hachibi's Jinchuriki, Jiraiya, himself, and the Anbu Commander of Sunagakure. Aside from him and the sealed Killer Bee, there is no trace of any other party.

The units of Konoha and Kumo are still fine, at least team-11 and Jiraiya are here, at the same time, Killer Bee and many Jonin of Kumo are also here, but from the start to finish there is no sign of anyone from Suna appearing here.

It's as if the entire Suna unit disappeared into thin air.

At this time, Kakashi said weakly, "Jiraiya-sama what should we do now?"

'Hyuga Kuroto' said, "Jiraiya-sama, shouldn't we use this opportunity to rescue Killer Bee?"

Hearing Kakashi's and 'Kuroto's' words Jiraiya glanced at the large planetary orb stationary at a high altitude from the corner of his eyes and nodded slightly, "You are right, we must find a way to rescue Killer Bee!"

Rescuing Killer Bee should be their immediate priority.

Shisui questioned, "But how do we reach that height… its altitude has risen so high that even attacks from my Susanoo won't be able to reach there!"

Kakashi nodded, although he understands that this opportunity while Akatsuki and Amatsukami are facing each other is the best time to rescue Hachibi's Jinchuriki but who can fly to such a height? In the tri-Alliance, only Yondaime Kazekage seems to have such an ability but he is nowhere to be seen.

Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh… Whoosh…

Flicker… Zzzzz… Flicker… Zzzzz…

At this moment two incredibly fast figures arrived at the battlefield one after another.

The figure at the front was covered with many wounds, blood marks, and some burns probably caused because of being hit by lightning.

The person at his immediate back had a blue lightning chakra cloak all over his body, he seemed to be somewhat exhausted.

These two are none other than Hiruko, the bearer of five Kekkei Genkai and Yondaime Raikage of Kumogakure, Ay.

As soon as Ay arrived at the battlefield, all the Kumo shinobi went to him, Ay looked at everyone but upon not finding Bee in the crowd, he immediately asked with a frown, "Where is Bee?"
