Chapter 12 Apocalyptic Catastrophe, Only Dawn Offers Hope
Chapter 12 Apocalyptic Catastrophe, Only Dawn Offers Hope
Inside the conference hall, Nagato, having activated his Rinnegan, exuded an extremely powerful aura.
The Akatsuki members present immediately felt an immense sense of oppression.
Realizing that her aura had taken effect, Nagato then began to plan her next move.
"Besides passing on information to Konoha, you also need to team up with Tama."
"Calculate all the details, including the trajectory, speed, and size of this world-destroying meteorite."
Sasori glanced at Orochimaru, then remained silent.
Orochimaru licked his lips, and then a cold and mocking voice came from behind him.
"Even if we could calculate the exact details, so what? Could we stop a meteorite from destroying the entire world?"
Nagato slowly raised his head, his Rinnegan, which controlled the Heavenly Path, radiating a chilling light, and his voice carried an undeniable majesty.
Do not question God's power.
"In this impending apocalypse, the power of the Rinnegan is the only hope for the Akatsuki and the entire ninja world."
Nagato's words exuded a strong sense of confidence, as if he had found a way to deal with this disaster, at least in terms of his aura, he completely suppressed Orochimaru, who had questioned him.
Orochimaru still stared at Nagato with a mixture of belief and doubt, his heart filled with an intense desire to learn more about the Rinnegan.
The limited information he has so far prevents him from being completely certain whether Nagato truly possesses the power to resist the cataclysmic disaster.
Nagato ignored Orochimaru's suspicions and continued issuing orders to the group...
"The rest of you will be responsible for secretly transmitting information about the meteorite's arrival to the five great ninja villages through the black market and other channels from now on."
"We just need to let them know that disaster is imminent and that they must take action."
Upon hearing this, everyone could only nod in agreement.
After issuing the order, Nagato turned his gaze to Konan beside him and lowered his voice.
"Xiao Nan, the previous list of purchased supplies must be adjusted immediately."
This means that the original plan to purchase a large number of explosive tags has been temporarily suspended...
Although Konan was somewhat reluctant, since these items were intended to be used against Obito, she had no choice but to abandon the plan to acquire the explosive tags given the current situation.
Shortly afterward, the price of explosive tags on the black market plummeted overnight...
Having completed all the work assignments, Nagato coldly warned, "I hope you understand one thing: although the apocalypse is imminent, here, the Rinnegan can protect you."
"In the face of apocalyptic catastrophe, only dawn offers hope."
After Nagato finished speaking, everyone remained silent for a long time.
"Heh, as expected of the leader."
Orochimaru chuckled lightly, then turned away with a flourish...
As for Kakuzu, he and Konan exchanged a glance.
If Nagato truly possesses the ability to withstand disasters, then he might be able to preserve his wealth, and even reap greater benefits after the disaster.
As for scorpions...
I don't believe in any savior's grand pronouncements...
What he was concerned about was whether he could become eternal art after the world was destroyed.
Only Konan is very worried about Nagato now.
Despite his seemingly tough stance, Nagato's condition isn't actually that good...
In any case, Nagato stabilized the situation.
At the base of the building, a dim yellow light cast an unusually oppressive atmosphere over the space.
Danzo slowly removed the heavy bandages wrapped around his head, revealing his face, which had been hidden for a long time.
He looked up at the mirror and stared coldly at his own reflection.
Surprisingly, the already wrinkled and aged face gradually began to radiate a youthful glow and vitality.
His skin looked much firmer, and the mottled wrinkles seemed to have faded somewhat.
Danzo stared coldly at his reflection in the mirror, a faint smugness creeping onto his lips.
The shock of the Uchiha clan massacre indirectly strengthened his control over the First Hokage's cells.
Although the transplanted Shisui Sharingan seemed to have temporarily entered a strange cooling state, it was precisely because of this that his body's adaptation to the First Hokage's cells became more stable.
Danzo raised his right arm, an arm that had once barely been able to accommodate a dozen Sharingan eyes. He could feel that the power of this arm had become stronger.
It can also accommodate more Sharingan...
"Hmph... The ninja world is destroyed?"
Recalling the expressions of Hyuga Hiashi and Sarutobi Hiruzen that were as if facing a formidable enemy today, he couldn't help but sneer.
"These fools actually believe such absurd rumors and even discuss them seriously."
Even if some disaster were to strike, this chaos would only be a great opportunity for Konoha and the Land of Fire to rise.
If he seizes the opportunity and makes full use of these sudden changes, he will regain control of the power of Konoha and even the entire ninja world.
"Disaster is the end for the weak, but an opportunity for the strong."
Danzo muttered to himself, his smile turning cold and mocking.
Just then, a Root ninja quietly appeared behind him, bowing respectfully and reporting, "Lord Danzo, an important piece of information has just arrived from the black market. Please take a look."
Danzo turned his head, glanced at him coldly, and then took the intelligence documents handed to him.
He hadn't paid much attention to it at first, but his expression gradually changed after his eyes fell on the words on the document.
Some of this information came from Orochimaru...
Some of these come from the roots, acting as informants in the black market...
But almost simultaneously, all of these intelligence reports contained the same thing.
"A massive asteroid is about to collide with the ninja world, and it is expected to cause the destruction of the entire world."
Danzo frowned immediately, carefully reading the handwriting on the document repeatedly, trying to find some obvious loopholes or exaggerations.
This intelligence report is not only presented with certainty, but also provides quite detailed data and speculation.
This couldn't possibly be just a simple prank. The fact that so many different forces issued the same warning almost simultaneously suggests that the intelligence is highly credible.
"How could this happen?"
Danzo was incredulous for a moment.
He had just been mocking Hiashi Hyuga and Hiruzen Sarutobi for their overthinking and cowardice, but reality had slapped him in the face so quickly and violently.
He clenched the document in his hand slightly, his eyes flickering with uncertainty as he quickly assessed the situation.
If this information is true, then the so-called "destruction of the ninja world" is no longer alarmist, but a huge threat right before our eyes.
He then picked up Orochimaru's letter and began to read it...
The name Uchiha Gen appeared before his eyes once again.
"Damn it, it's still the same incident caused by the Uchiha clan massacre! What is Itachi Uchiha doing?!"
Holding onto this intelligence tightly, Danzo felt a strong sense of crisis.
"Contact Orochimaru...I want to see him in person."
Looking at his own arm, Danzo revealed a greedy expression...
More can be ported...more...more...
