Chapter 254: The Anxious Tsuchikage
With the addition of the Third Kazekage, Deidara and Sasori were immediately pressured.
Although the Kazekage and Tsuchikage's strength wasn't as good as before, it still gave Deidara and Sasori quite a bit of trouble.
This scene was also seen by everyone in the Akatsuki organization in Iwagakure.
"It seems they're fighting fiercely!"
"Is that the Second Tsuchikage and Third Kazekage?"
"That's right, Orochimaru used Impure World Reincarnation (Edo Tensei)!"
"The Second Hokage really developed a disgusting forbidden technique, it's truly evil."
"What about it, are we going to attack?"
Against a group of non-flying ninja alliances, Deidara and Sasori could naturally calmly retreat and withdraw.
But now that two Edo Tensei Kage have appeared, the situation has reversed.
Moreover, Edo Tensei ninjas seem to have unlimited chakra.
If the entanglement continues, sooner or later they will lose.
In this case, Pain once again vetoed: "No. Wait a little longer and let them stall for a while longer."
"Huh? Wait for what else?" Kisame asked curiously.
Kisame wondered if Pain wanted to use the alliance to get rid of Deidara and Sasori.
The alliance forces haven't won yet!
Pain didn't look at Kisame and just replied casually:
"Waiting for a guest to arrive."
"What guest?"
"You'll know soon."
Pain didn't say it clearly, but the direction was clear.
❀❀❀
Currently, Deidara and Sasori were fighting and entangled with the ninja alliance. Inside Iwagakure Village.
Onoki's Third Team returned to the village through a secret passage.
And to facilitate evacuation, the exit or entrance of one of the hidden secret passages wasn't far below the Tsuchikage Building.
Therefore, Onoki and the others who sneaked in went straight to the Tsuchikage Building.
"Old man, why did your village build so many secret passages?"
Onoki replied casually: "These are all relics of Nidaime."
At that time, to deal with the increasing strength of the Second Mizukage, many secret passages and shelters were built under the village without any intention.
Muu was just worried that if Gengetsu invaded Iwagakure, the villagers would be able to take shelter.
He didn't bother dismantling it later.
Besides, when Deidara was still young, he also liked to experiment with his clay explosion art everywhere, so it was natural that Onoki kept some important tunnels.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. With the massive movement outside the village, surely Akatsuki and the alliance forces have started fighting."
Onoki was very anxious.
He naturally sensed Deidara's chakra and explosions, and knew that it was that boy who was fighting the alliance forces.
Therefore, rescuing the key hostages became more urgent so that he could immediately return to deal with the traitor himself!
Akatsuchi immediately closed his eyes and activated his perception.
His target was quickly found.
"On the third floor of the Tsuchikage Building, there is a target that is very similar to Tsuchikage-sama's granddaughter, but her chakra aura is very weak, and it must be restricted with a seal."
"That's Kurotsuchi! She's in the building? Is she still alive? We have to rescue her as soon as possible!"
Onoki was very happy, at least it proved that Kurotsuchi was still alive.
Deidara wasn't that crazy to kill his junior!
If his granddaughter was really killed, Onoki would be the first to go crazy.
"Okay! Let's act individually. Go rescue the hostages, and I'll find the enemy leader's hiding place." Chiyo immediately suggested.
She might as well persuade Sasori to give up by acting on her own.
"Do you know where that guy is?"
"Not sure, I just need to find him."
"Orochi... The Fifth Hokage said that the enemy's true form must be hidden in Iwagakure! So it's more efficient to act individually."
"If I find him, I'll use the wind bird puppet to let you know."
News of Nagato's true form and the Pain puppets.
It was also one of the few pieces of important information about Akatsuki that Orochimaru revealed to the Ninja Alliance!
Hearing this, Onoki immediately nodded, just wanting to rescue Kurotsuchi and the others as soon as possible.
"Good!"
This time, Hyuga Kamon took the initiative to suggest: "Kazekage-sama, I'll act with you. My Byakugan helps to find the location of the enemy leader."
Chiyo rolled her eyes slightly at that Konoha Hyuuga ninja.
This young man was so stupid!
Forget it, there was no harm in bringing him along.
If he could really find out where the enemy leader was hiding, it would be a great achievement.
Then the two groups of people immediately separated and acted.
Chiyo and Hyuga Kamon began to search for Nagato's hiding place.
Onoki, Akatsuchi, and Nozomi sneaked into the Tsuchikage Building, preparing to rescue Kurotsuchi first.
❀❀❀
Onoki and the others successfully broke through, and now most of the enemies were attracted to the entrance of the village.
There weren't many Amegakure ninjas left in the Tsuchikage Building, and most of them were Genin and Chunin. How could they stop the three of them?
The Amegakure ninjas were silently killed by Akatsuchi and Nozomi without even raising an alarm.
Soon, the three of them arrived in front of the room where Kurotsuchi was being held.
Nozomi stopped the anxious Onoki and carefully separated a clone to test first.
As soon as the clone opened the door, it was controlled by the sealing technique left on the ground, and at the same time, several powerful arrows were shot from above its head.
*BANG!*
The clone exploded into smoke, causing Onoki and the others to suddenly feel a shock.
"How despicable! You even set a trap at the cell door."
As the saying goes, concern causes chaos. If Nozomi hadn't been careful enough, he and Onoki might have gotten into trouble.
"A-Woo-!"
Inside the cell, Kurotsuchi, whose mouth was tightly sealed, was also very excited after seeing Onoki and the others.
She immediately struggled with her body and whimpered for help.
"Kurotsuchi!"
Onoki saw her in the cell and rushed in impatiently.
"Tsuchikage-sama, wait a minute! It's not confirmed yet if she's your granddaughter."
Nozomi was still very cautious and wanted to stop Onoki. At least we need to confirm the identity of the hostages first!
Onoki calmed down a little, so he separated a stone clone and approached Kurotsuchi.
Taking out a cotton-like white substance from her mouth, Kurotsuchi regained her ability to speak, immediately shouting excitedly:
"Old man! Why are you here? Hurry, stop Deidara!"
As soon as these words came out, Onoki's worries disappeared instantly.
There was no doubt that this was his granddaughter.
Only she would call him "old man" with such "affection" and call the traitor by name.
"Sorry, I'm late!"
Seeing his suffering granddaughter, Onoki's eyes turned red.
He immediately stepped forward and released the rope binding Kurotsuchi.
But now, Kurotsuchi, who had just been untied, immediately shot a wooden thorn from her right hand, directly attacking Onoki in front of her.
Onoki, who was unsuspecting, was directly hit.
He was immediately stabbed in the chest by the wooden thorn!
