Chapter 217: We can Unite and Ask Onoki to Hand Over the List of Akatsuki Members!

Uehara’s words were a little scary.

As a person who had once defeated Guy, Kakashi, and Jiraiya in Sage mode, Uehara actually said that he was no match for Sasuke…

What did this mean?

Uehara could barely compete with the hooded Akatsuki member who defeated Kakashi and Naruto in the Bijuu state, and now Uehara thought he was no match for Sasuke?

Kakashi covered his eyes as if he had thought of something and said in a low voice, “Sasuke… opened his Mangekyo Sharingan?”

Sasuke must have obtained his Mangekyo Sharingan. Otherwise, it would be impossible for his strength to rise to the degree that even Uehara feared.

Of course…

Because Kakashi never thought that Uehara would lie to them.

Perhaps Kakashi felt that Uehara would not lie to them about Sasuke…

Uehara slowly lowered his head and said in a low voice, “Sasuke’s eyes are terrifying, just like how I once met Obito and Itachi…”

“Well, it doesn’t matter.”

Naruto clenched his fist and said confidently, “No matter what kind of person Sasuke becomes, I will bring him back!”

“Ha, you are really energetic!”

Uehara patted Naruto on the shoulder and sighed. He advised softly, “Naruto, I’m just worried that Sasuke might not be willing to listen to you. I once wanted to bring back Kimimaro and Haku, but they mercilessly attacked me…”

“Sasuke won’t!”

After Naruto said this confidently, he suddenly felt that it was not appropriate to say this now. It was a bit like attacking Uehara’s former teammate.

However, Uehara did not mind. He sighed softly and said, “I hope so! Naruto, perhaps you are different…”

“Ahahahaha…”

Naruto scratched the back of his head awkwardly and promised earnestly, “If I meet Kimimaro and Haku, I will help you persuade them. I will tell them that you have been waiting for them!”

Uehara suppressed his impulse and slowly lowered his head. His voice sounded a little sad. “It’s okay. Don’t worry about it. We have already parted ways…”

If Naruto told them to turn back after seeing Kimimaro and Haku, the two little guys would probably be stunned!

Uehara’s position in Akatsuki and Amegakure was not low. He even dared to refute Pain’s words. Apart from Konan, no one dared to provoke him.

After talking about the betrayal of their teammates, the atmosphere suddenly became a little depressed. Everyone seemed to be in a bad mood.

“Uehara, do you have any more detailed information about Akatsuki? It’s best to have information about Sasuke.”

Naruto said with a serious face, “We may come to the Land of Bird again soon. Next time, we must catch the entire organization in one fell swoop!”

“Well…”

Uehara could not help but lower his head and said in a deep voice, “It has been hard for us to find any trace of Akatsuki recently, but the only thing we know is that if Sasuke moves out, his brother Itachi will definitely move out together. The two Uchiha’s strengths are terrifying!”

“Is that so?”

Naruto lowered his head and began to think.

The people of Team 7 all lowered their heads and began to think. After all, the Sasuke they knew wanted to cut Itachi into seven or eight pieces. How could his relationship with Itachi improve after so many years?

“Don’t think so much.”

Uehara patted Naruto on the shoulder and said softly, “If our people find any information about Sasuke or Itachi, I will immediately pass it onto you!”

“Okay, thank you!”

“Thank you, Uehara-senpai!”

“Thank you.”

After Team 7 people expressed their thanks, Sunagakure’s Kazekage Gaara also made the same promise.

He also wanted to help.

At this point, the battle to rescue the Kazekage ended.

After they buried Chiyo in the Sunagakure, they took Gaara back and accepted a grand welcome from the Sunagakure people.

To tell the truth, Uehara’s mood was a little subtle.

He really wanted to see what expression these Sand Ninjas would show after they learned that he was the one who destroyed Sunagakure!

Undoubtedly, their expressions would be very interesting.

But for now, they were still very grateful to Uehara.

A murderer who killed Fourth Kazekage but helped rescue the Fifth Kazekage, at this moment, it could be said that the grudge between them had been removed.

Some Sand Ninjas even thought that Uehara’s style was very noble. After all, it was the Fourth Kazekage who had invaded the Land of Rain.

Kankuro, with a bandaged arm, bowed to Uehara seriously and thanked him, “Thank you. If not for your help to bring Gaara back, it would have been an unimaginable loss for Sunagakure.”

He had learned about what had happened from Temari.

If Uehara had not provided them with information about Akatsuki, they would not have been able to find the location of Akatsuki’s members.

If not for the fact that Uehara had sacrificed himself to trap the strongest enemy of Akatsuki’s organization, they would not have been able to take back Gaara’s body from Deidara, nor would they have the chance to use One’s Own Life Reincarnation.

Strictly speaking, Uehara was Sunagakure’s great benefactor.

Baki also took the initiative to come forward and bowed respectfully, “We apologize for our past hostility towards you… Thank you for saving Kazekage-sama.”

“It doesn’t matter.”

Uehara shook his head and said solemnly, “After all, we were wrong to believe in Obito, which was why he managed to form an evil organization like Akatsuki.

Now, the Akatsuki organization has become cancer upon the world. Every time they make a move, they will cause great harm to the peace of the world. After a few years of dormancy, they began to stir up trouble everywhere in the world. I didn’t expect them to threaten the Kazekage this time.

We have been attacking the Akatsuki organization these years to make up for the mistakes that we have made, but we underestimated Obito’s ambition.”

After saying that, Uehara turned to look at Kakashi and the other Ninjas with awkward expressions. He continued softly, “Kakashi-san, we don’t think that Obito will give up so easily. He will definitely continue to send Akatsuki’s members to make more waves in the Ninja World.”

As soon as he said this, he began trying to shirk responsibility.

Kakashi felt a little embarrassed. After listening to Uehara, he did not think that Amegakure had made a big mistake. Instead, he felt that Konoha had more responsibility.

Who asked Obito to be a Missing-nin from Konoha?

Moreover, he was once Kakashi’s teammate, and now Obito had become the most dangerous person in the world. It was all because Kakashi did not protect Rin well…

Kakashi felt a little guilty.

Of course, on the surface, Kakashi still had to maintain the image of Konoha. He whispered, “Fifth Hokage-sama has been sending people to investigate Obito and Akatsuki. Unfortunately, our Anbu can only be active in our own country. We do not dare to touch the other area like Iwagakure in the north, to avoid conflict between the two countries…”

The black pot was directly pushed to Onoki.

After all, in the Land of Grass, in order to give Iwagakure the advantage, he had hired Akatsuki and paid a lot of money.

In the battle for Land of Grass, more than a dozen S -class rebels were mobilized simultaneously, and it was unreasonable to pay less money!

Uehara also followed Kakashi’s words and directly threw the black pot on Onoki, “Our analysis also shows that, after we expelled Obito, he might have gathered support from the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki…”

“Yes.”

Kakashi continued to say, “Konoha has similar guesses, and there is enough evidence. In the Land of Grass incident, Onoki used Akatsuki to achieve his goals.”

In the Land of Grass incident.

Akatsuki’s group swept through Konoha’s Ninjas, and Iwagakure’s Ninjas occupied the entire Land of Grass. Konoha could only attack the Iwa Ninjas to take back the land.

This went back and forth.

If Konoha hadn’t given half of the Land of Grass to Land of Rain, and if not for the fact that Hanzo threatened Akatsuki’s group, Konoha might still be amidst a battle in the Land of Grass.

Gaara held his arm, looked at this, and said in a deep voice, “The three of us can join forces to pressure, and ask Third Tsuchikage Onoki to hand over the list of Akatsuki’s members and their information.”

This was purely taking it for granted.

How could Third Tsuchikage surrender so easily? Wouldn’t that greatly reduce his prestige?

Gaara, this Kazekage, was far too young!

To say the least, even if Onoki was willing to hand over Akatsuki’s name list for the benefit of Iwagakure. Where would he get the name list? In the end, wouldn’t he still have to shoulder the fact that he conspired with the Akatsuki?

Kakashi’s expression was a little complicated. He whispered, “I still need to report this matter to Hokage-sama. After all, this matter is very important. If we unite to encircle and kill Akatsuki, the Kirigakure can help too.”

This was serious.

Kirigakure did not hide its hatred for Akatsuki.

After all, Fourth Mizukage was controlled by Obito and carried out a cruel and inhumane policy, causing Kirigakure to be greatly injured.

“En.”

Uehara nodded solemnly. He looked at Kakashi and Gaara and said, “I have to go back and report this matter to Hanzo-sama before making a decision…”

After Uehara finished speaking, he sighed and said, “After all, we will face the threat of Iwagakure. If we anger the Third Tsuchikage, no matter how strong Hanzo-sama is, it will be impossible for him to defeat Iwagakure’s tens of thousands of Ninjas!”
