Chapter 87

Leisurely walking into the base, Su Zhong, as usual, returned to his room after completing his morning cultivation.

When he saw Zabuza appear at his door again, Su Zhong couldn't help but smile. It seemed that the world was becoming increasingly restless.

Without a word, he greeted Zabuza and pushed the door open, walking inside.

Zabuza closely followed behind.

"Sir, we have received accurate intelligence. The leader of the Akatsuki, Pain, attacked Konoha, and the Hokage Tsunade fell into a coma. However, it seems Tsunade had already taken precautions. Apart from significant damage to buildings, the personnel losses were relatively small," Zabuza said, spouting a string of information.

Su Zhong listened quietly, and when he heard that Tsunade had been prepared, he couldn't help but be taken aback.

"Konoha was prepared?"

"Indeed, the Fifth Hokage seems to have put in a lot of effort to improve the evacuation system. And it seems she had already taken measures. When the attack happened, the ordinary residents of Konoha were quickly evacuated under the guidance of the ninja."

The more Su Zhong listened, the more he felt something was amiss. He then realized the deeper meaning of such preparations.

This was preparation for large-scale attack jutsu.

Tsunade naturally couldn't have known about Pain's Divine Creation of the World, but she was guarding against his Chakra Cannon.

Su Zhong raised an eyebrow in surprise. However, it might also be to guard against attacks like the Nine-Tails' rampage.

After some thought, he put it aside: "Continue."

Zabuza picked up the notebook in his hand and continued: "Danzo quickly took over Konoha and became the Sixth Hokage. He has proposed a meeting of the Five Kage, and is already on the way to the Land of Iron."

Su Zhong was not surprised by this information.

Zabuza looked up hesitantly at Su Zhong: "There's more... Sir, we received an invitation from the Land of Iron." Saying this, Zabuza reached into his pocket and pulled out a light green invitation with strange patterns.

Su Zhong took it, opened it, and raised an eyebrow in surprise. Seeing Zabuza's curious expression, he casually handed it to him.

Zabuza's eyes quickly scanned the invitation, which was short and contained only a few lines.

"Five Kage Summit? Why would the Land of Iron invite us?" Zabuza looked puzzled.

The Akatsuki had developed rapidly but had not expanded outward. It was mainly concentrated in the Land of Waves. Over the past two years, the Land of Waves had rapidly developed through the secret production of sake and various seafood. The hot spring tourism industry had also developed smoothly.

Initially, they had to put in a lot of effort to artificially create hot springs. Earth jutsu was used to redirect underground rivers and guide underground lava. The most important thing was to ensure that the lava did not erupt. For this, the sealing team had to put in a lot of effort.

With the full cooperation of the ninja, the entire Land of Waves was quickly transformed into an excellent tourist country.

But even so, it could not serve as a basis for the Akatsuki to participate in the Five Kage Summit.

Zabuza had a clear understanding of the Akatsuki. Due to Su Zhong's restrictions, the Akatsuki had only about 1,500 members in total. Of these, only about 800 were combat-ready.

Although these 800 had good combat capabilities, they were far from the level of the Five Great Shinobi Nations.

"They aren't inviting the Akatsuki. They are inviting me. Don't forget, I am of the Uchiha clan. Coincidentally, the leader of the Akatsuki, and I share the same surname," Su Zhong said calmly.

Zabuza, who was not stupid, immediately understood.

"They want to get information from you, sir?"

It seemed he had thought of something, and a look of concern flashed in his eyes.

"Sir, this trip is very dangerous. They might use some means to get the information."

Su Zhong took off his robe, wearing a black pair of athletic pants and a black tank top.

His exposed arms were not particularly muscular, but as he moved his arms, the streamlined muscles rippled, and the hidden strength made Zabuza feel a slight fear.

He had once tried the feeling of being frozen. Two years ago, he could still break free with some effort, but after three months, he could no longer break free from White's seal.

And Su Zhong would face ten sealers like White!

Zabuza's rebellious heart had long disappeared without him noticing.

"No problem. It's just a casual visit."

Su Zhong was not concerned. He was not someone who could be easily manipulated. Moreover, Su Zhong believed that the other party would not dare to act rashly. Otherwise, the Five Great Shinobi Nations would have directly taken him away! If they weren't wary of Su Zhong's Chakra Cannon, they would have done so.

"Arrange the matters below. You and White will come with me. We can't avoid dealing with the Akatsuki."

Zabuza nodded, knowing that Su Zhong was not exaggerating.

During this time, he had been gathering information on the Akatsuki.

The intelligence showed that the Akatsuki had been collecting tailed beasts. Just seven days ago, the Akatsuki successfully captured the Eight-Tails. The one who acted was Uchiha Sasuke. Now, only the Nine-Tails remained.

One tailed beast could determine the outcome of an abnormal war in the ninja world, let alone all the tailed beasts.

Indeed, the world was about to become chaotic.

...

Snowflakes were flying, and the temperature was unexpectedly low.

Su Zhong was wearing skis, not using ski poles, and with a backward slap of his hands, a loud thud echoed as the air resistance propelled him forward at high speed.

White and Zabuza followed closely behind, sliding quickly.

Soon, they entered the heart of the Land of Iron.

As soon as they entered the Land of Iron, someone came to guide them. They quickly reached the location of the meeting.

Su Zhong was not particularly interested in the special landscape of the Land of Iron. He was more interested in the unique sword techniques practiced there. However, there was no suitable opportunity to ask directly.

But through indirect inquiries and the keen observation of his Insight Eye, Su Zhong had some guesses.

The sword qi attacks of the Land of Iron were likely a special transformation of chakra. This transformation made the chakra lose its elemental properties like water or fire, but it gained a unique sharpness, greatly enhancing its offensive power.

Following the guide, Su Zhong and the two others entered the pyramid-shaped palace.

The indoor temperature was not low, but rather quite warm. The tall pillars and the strange, beautiful patterns made the palace look grand.

After taking a few steps, a loud roar suddenly came.

"Uchiha Qiu! Where is Sasuke!"

A blue figure darted over and threw a powerful punch at Su Zhong!

Boom!

The surrounding air violently shook.

Su Zhong stood still, a black sphere surrounding him.

Black Moon!

The massive fist hit the Black Moon, but the Black Moon remained unmoved. The impact sent shockwaves in all directions, making Su Zhong's clothes flutter.

The past two years had not been wasted for Su Zhong. He had never relaxed his training. Stimulated by the inactivity of the Boundary Pearl, he focused all his efforts on cultivation.

The Black Moon had been improved multiple times. Two years ago, Jiraiya could still create a dent with the Rasengan. Now, facing the Raikage's punch, the Black Moon was as hard as iron!

With a cold expression, Su Zhong stared at the enraged Raikage. His right hand shot out like lightning, and a sharp whistling sound suddenly echoed.

Great Dragon Fist!

The Raikage immediately blocked with his hand, and his chakra cloak became even more intense!

A powerful force hit his left hand, causing his arm to bend unnaturally. The force then slammed into his chest. The Raikage's face changed dramatically, feeling as if he had been hit by a tailed beast. His body involuntarily flew backward.

Bang!

The figure, crackling with electricity, quickly retreated and crashed into the wall with a loud thud.

Su Zhong retracted his right hand, the black color gradually fading, revealing a smooth, long hand.

Everyone around was shocked, unable to believe that this delicate hand had sent the Raikage flying with one punch!

Boom!

Rocks flew, and the Raikage leaped out of the wall. His chakra cloak had disappeared, and he showed no signs of injury, but his expression was particularly serious.

Su Zhong's eyes were fixed on the Raikage, particularly interested in his strong defensive capabilities.

To be able to withstand a Great Dragon Fist without preparation, the Raikage's physical strength was truly remarkable!

"Such a strong body," Su Zhong praised.

The Raikage grunted angrily: "Your punch is hard enough!"

After exchanging one punch, both had a better understanding of each other's strength. Especially the Raikage, who had only heard about Uchiha Qiu's physical prowess. Now, after taking a direct hit, he couldn't help but think of another ninja from Konoha.

Understanding Su Zhong's strength, the Raikage had to suppress his anger.

At this moment, a samurai-dressed person walked over: "Alright, both of you. This is the Land of Iron. You are here to establish a ninja alliance. Personal grudges should be set aside. What do you think, Raikage?"

The Raikage let out a heavy breath, suppressed his anger, and turned to leave.

Sanjuu nodded in satisfaction, turning to look at the composed Su Zhong, feeling amazed.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, no one would have been able to associate the calm youth before him with the one who had just sent the Raikage flying with a punch.

"You are Uchiha Qiu? I have heard a lot about you and have long wanted to meet you," Sanjuu said.

This was not just a formality; he genuinely wanted to meet Su Zhong.

Because Su Zhong was the only person who could achieve such strength without relying on chakra.

Sanjuu practiced sword techniques and led the samurai style of the Land of Iron. However, this was not pure samurai. It was a new style of sword techniques combined with chakra.

Su Zhong, who did not rely on chakra, used his fists and feet to dominate the ninja world, making him more like a true samurai. How could Sanjuu not be curious?

Su Zhong nodded without comment, asking calmly: "Where should I go?"

He didn't believe he had the qualifications to attend the Five Kage Summit. This was not just a matter of personal strength but also the strength behind him.

The Five Kage represented the Five Great Shinobi Nations. Which nation did he represent? The Land of Waves?

A small island nation didn't have that much prestige.

Sanjuu smiled slightly, relieved that Su Zhong understood his identity and knew what to do: "We have already arranged a room for you. You can freely explore the area and enjoy the unique snowfield scenery. During this time, we may ask you a few questions, but we have no other restrictions."

Su Zhong showed no reaction, leading Zabuza to follow the guide and leave.

Sanjuu watched Su Zhong until his figure disappeared, then收回目光，心中越发赞叹起来。

不卑不亢，处变不惊不怖，好气魄！
