MenuCHAPTER 421 - Call Naruto Back
The streets of Konoha are in chaos. A group of
villagers are running for their lives away from the giant centipede
which Animal Realm Pein had summoned. A little girl named
Tami trips and is about to be attacked by the creature when
suddenly
Sakura leaps in and destroys it with one of her power
punches. While she treats the girl’s scraped knee,
Iruka and a team of Konoha ninja arrive. Iruka explains to
her that Akatsuki is behind the attack. Another large
explosion occurs in the distance. Iruka tells Sakura to hurry
to the hospital where the wounded are filling up.In Tsunade’s office, a messenger toad is prepared to depart for Myobokuzan Mountain to fetch Naruto under Tsunade’s orders. But the Konoha
elders Homura
Mitokado and Koharu Utatane arrive at her door and tell her to
stop. They have been informed by Danzo that the leader of
Akatsuki is behind the attack and that Nauto is their target.
Koharu thinks that Naruto is still a child and cannot hope to defeat
someone who was able to kill Jiraiya. Also, the consequences
would be dire if the Nine-Tails was to fall into Akatsuki’s
hands.
Tsunade won’t have any of this, she
rushes over and grabs both elders by their collars.
Naruto’s promises of the past flash through her mind:
“I won’t die until I become Hokage!”
“I’m gonna avenge that pervy
sage!” She also remembers Jiraiya’s final
wish for Naruto to be the “child of
prophecy” and how he risked everything to entrust
the future in Naruto. Tsunade snaps at the elders
for still
treating Naruto like a weak child. He has inherited the spirit of
Konoha and will surpass Jiraiya one day. Naruto is not some hidden
weapon that they need to shelter away. Tsunade drops the
elders on to the floor. She then asks if they knew what
Jiraiya, Sarutobi, and Chiyo of the Sand had that they
don’t… Faith.
At that moment everyone was struggling to do
their best to protect the future of Konoha, even Naruto who was still
hard at work competing his new jutsu. Tsunade states that
just like her grandfather, the First Hokage, had the faith to entrust
the village to their hands, it is now time for them to have faith in
the next generation to protect the village. The elders get
back to their feet, Koharu begrudgingly
tells Tsunade to do as she
likes and the two silently leave the room. Just then Shizune
arrives.Kakashi pushes his way out of the rubble after the sudden explosion caused by God Realm Pein. Kakashi is unsure what technique Pein had used because it did not feel like a shockwave, yet
everything in a large radius around Pein was blown
away. He decides to test out Pein’s defences by
attacking with a lightning jutsu in the form of a hound.
However, it is easily dissipated before it can get close enough to
Pein. Kakashi is impressed that Pein’s ability can
repel both physical and ninjutsu attacks. He is thinking about
his next move when Demon Realm Pein lands a short distance behind
him.Shizune explains to Tsunade that the black substance they recovered from the body Jiriaya sent back is a receiver for chakra signals. Since all of Pein’s bodies
have
these implanted in them, it must be how they are able to move and
coordinate with each other, perhaps even transmit chakra amongst
themselves. Shizune is sure this is the key to solving the
secret of Pein’s strength. All they need now is
information from the interrogators to solve the mystery.
Tsunade agrees and tells the messenger frog to also tell Fukasaku all
they’ve learned so far. She then orders Shizune to
go inform the interrogators and assigns ANBU teams to protect Shizune
and to guard the interrogation chambers. Tsunade herself will
go help with the wounded.
