Starting as the mastermind behind Naruto

Chapter 488 Anyway, you guys are a loose organization

Marineford.

In Aokiji's office.

This office is a bit unconventional; there's a sleeping mat on the floor, and Aokiji is lying lazily on it, slowly closing his eyes.

"This is such a hassle..."

After returning to his office from the meeting, Aokiji remained in this position, muttering to himself, "To win three moves with one move... Is this the guy's most trusted subordinate?"

Aokiji initially thought Kabuto's plan was to help Kisame Hoshigaki out of his troubles, and incidentally, to sow discord and weaken the Whitebeard Pirates and the Beasts Pirates...

As a result, Kabuto Yakushi used this opportunity to lure Kizaru away.

Do not…

Or perhaps this is Yakushi Kabuto's true purpose!

The Akatsuki really want to wipe out all the Marine Headquarters Admirals!

If Kizaru is forced to join Akatsuki, then all three Marine Admirals and one Marine strategist at Marineford will be Akatsuki spies…

Yes, evil has completely invaded the stronghold of justice.

"Contact that Sakazuki guy?"

Aokiji took out his Den Den Mushi and slowly dialed Akainu's Den Den Mushi: "Um, Sakazuki, there's something I want to ask you..."

"Hey you... what's wrong?"

Akainu didn't sound like he was in a bad mood.

But it must be said that…

After Aokiji and Akainu both became Akatsuki spies, their relationship improved slightly, and they contacted each other much more often.

Perhaps it's because they share a secret?

Aokiji didn't hesitate much before telling Akainu about what happened at the Marineford meeting: "Hmm, Kabuto Yakushi and Borsalino are going on a mission together. I feel like he might not escape our fate of making contact with him either..."

"..."

Akainu fell silent on the other end of the Den Den Mushi.

What the hell is going on? They finally reached an agreement to stay away from Marineford so that Kizaru could safely take over in the future…

Could it be that Kizaru might also join Akatsuki?

If all three admirals of the Marine Headquarters have become spies for the Akatsuki, then who will uphold justice for the Navy? Can Aokiji and Kizaru, these two lazy guys who like to slack off, maintain justice as much as possible under the pressure of the Akatsuki?

"I understand about this."

After responding in a deep voice, Akainu added with some anger, "They're all... destined to be unreliable sooner or later..."

If all three admirals of the Marine Headquarters are undercover agents, then Aokiji and Kizaru, those two unreliable guys, are really not reliable at all!

The navy can basically be declared finished!

"..."

Aokiji glanced at the Den Den Mushi that had been disconnected, his expression becoming somewhat subtle. Was this his fault? It was as if they could stop the Akatsuki…

Kabuto Yakushi of the Akatsuki organization has now completely deceived Sengoku and Vice Admiral Tsuru, and even World Government officials, as well as a large number of naval officers who are very convinced of his abilities.

What can an ordinary naval admiral do?

New world.

G1 Branch Base.

After Akainu hung up on Aokiji's Den Den Mushi, he lit a cigar and dialed Kizaru's Den Den Mushi, but unfortunately, the call didn't go through after a few rings.

Akainu's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Did this guy... answer the wrong Den Den Mushi again?"

After a long while, the Den Den Mushi was finally connected.

A young man's voice reached Akainu's ears: "Admiral Akainu, this is the Marine Science Unit. I am Sentomaru, the most tight-lipped man in the world. The old man forgot to take his Den Den Mushi when he left here, so he and Vice Admiral Kabuto Yakushi left..."

"I know...that bastard!"

Akainu couldn't help but curse before forcefully slamming down the Den Den Mushi.

Akainu puffed on his cigars, one after another, until the room slowly filled with smoke.

That is to say...

If I want to contact Kizaru, do I have to contact Kabuto Yakushi first?

Akainu sat in his room, finished his cigar, stubbed the end out on the table, picked up his Den Den Mushi again, and slowly dialed a number he had never contacted before.

The leader of Akatsuki, Uehara Naraku.

It's really strange, ever since Uehara Naraku used the Four-Tails to implant in his body and forced him to join the Akatsuki, he has never contacted him or used him.

The two made their first contact...

It was Akainu who took the initiative.

Akainu watched as the Den Den Mushi on his desk connected, a complex expression flashing across his face. Just as he was about to lower his head and say something, the other end of the Den Den Mushi spoke first.

"Admiral Akainu?"

Uehara Naraku's leisurely voice came through the Den Den Mushi. After greeting me, he seemed a little impatient: "Hmm, it seems this is our first time contacting each other. Do you have any important information to give me?"

"..."

Akainu shook his head to himself and said in a deep voice into the Den Den Mushi, "Nothing much. I just wanted to talk to you about the Navy..."

"Oh, don't worry."

A soft laugh came from the Den Den Mushi: "I also have some good news to tell you. We'll be able to recruit Admiral Kizaru very soon..."

Perhaps at the next Akatsuki group meeting, you'll see both of your colleagues there, and then we can make the Navy whatever we want it to be.

"..."

Akainu clenched his fist tightly.

Damn it, what else can the Navy become?

Akainu wanted to contact Hara because he was worried that Akatsuki would turn the Marines into those weird and strange things!

That bastard Kabuto Yakushi was too fast!

As expected, the meeting at Marineford was not about the war between the two Yonko, Whitebeard and Kaido. The real purpose was clearly to lure out Kizaru and force him to surrender!

"..."

Akainu grabbed the Den Den Mushi from the table, his voice suddenly becoming much louder. He said in a deep voice, "Boltarino is my colleague and friend, but his personality is unpredictable and he's not trustworthy at all..."

Back then, Akainu and Kizaru were classmates.

The two were also known as monsters among the recruits.

Even without the abilities of Devil Fruits, they possessed extremely formidable power, so the two monsters naturally admired each other.

Actually, Akainu and Kizaru have a pretty good relationship. They occasionally drink tea and soak in hot springs together. They are truly harmonious colleagues.

Ha ha…

As for Aokiji, he was definitely excluded by them.

Akainu gripped the Den Den Mushi in his hand and continued in a deep voice, "Boltorino's ability is the Glint-Glint Fruit. Even if you, Lord Uehara Naraku, could use the same ability, you might not be able to completely capture him."

If you forcefully recruit Borsalino using your power, but he escapes, it could easily arouse Fleet Admiral Sengoku's suspicion, and might even expose my and Kuzan's identities...

This is very dangerous for me!

"Um…"

Uehara Naraku's voice remained reassuringly relaxed as he calmly soothed Akainu's emotions: "Don't worry, that won't happen..."

"That's for the best."

Akainu slammed his Den Den Mushi shut, not hearing the last words Uehara Naraku said on the other end.

"He definitely can't escape."

the other side.

The Land of Harmony, the Capital of Flowers.

Uehara Naraku sat in a conference room, looking at the Den Den Mushi in his hand with a puzzled expression. How dare someone hang up on him?

"What's wrong?"

Kaguya Ōtsutsuki sat beside Uehara, looking at Naraku Uehara, and asked softly, "Hagoromo... what happened? Did someone offend you?"

"No, it's alright, I'm not Yu Yi either."

Uehara Naraku shook his head, casually put away his Den Den Mushi, glanced at all the members present, and ordered, "The Whitebeard Pirates have left their territory. Mr. Shikaku, immediately have Kaido and Naruto Uzumaki set off with the Beasts Pirates to Punk Hazard to intercept the Whitebeard Pirates!"

"Yes."

Nara Shikaku nodded and then asked a question: "Do we need the Allied Shinobi Forces to join the battle? After all..."

"There is no need for Wano Country to remain closed off."

Uehara Naraku interrupted Nara Shikaku, saying in a low voice, "Apart from Naruto, at least until the real war breaks out, the Allied Shinobi Forces who know my identity should stay in Wano Country and focus on learning Haki!"

At this point, Uehara Naraku's gaze slowly fell upon everyone present: "Any ninja who wishes to travel this great sea must undergo vetting... even those of you present are no exception..."

Just as Uehara Naraku was about to say something more, he couldn't help but frown, and slowly raised his finger. A reanimated imp who had been released for a long time contacted him.

This is really strange, what's going on today...?

Some people he barely contacts are getting in touch with...

This time, it was Uchiha Itachi who contacted Uehara Naraku. Because of their connection, Itachi's thoughts were instantly transmitted to Uehara Naraku.

"Uehara Naraku, I've met someone named Charlotte Katakuri. We've been getting along very well, and he wants to join the Akatsuki..."

"Um?"

Uehara Naraku's expression was somewhat subtle, and he only casually replied to Uchiha Itachi, "Katakuri, huh? Don't leak my information... Seriously, you older brothers really do have something in common..."

"..."

Uchiha Itachi fell silent.

On the other side of the sea.

The sea area of ​​BIG·MOM.

Charlotte Katakuri lay on the ground, his body covered in burns, his狰狞 (zhengning - ferocious) mouth protruding, clearly indicating that he had just experienced a fierce battle.

and…

Katakuri was defeated.

This man, who was almost considered 100% perfect in the Charlotte family, was defeated in this battle and could only be left to the enemy's disposal.

Itachi Uchiha stood beside Katakuri, slowly lowered his fingers, opened his eyes, and looked at Katakuri with a pair of scarlet eyes: "The leader has agreed to let you join Akatsuki. You can live..."

After saying this, Itachi Uchiha opened his palm and said in a low voice, "And I completely understand what you did to protect your sister... I won't kill you, and I will keep your secret... It doesn't matter if you don't join Akatsuki."

"Yeah?"

Katakuri closed his eyes, shook his head, and whispered, "What a troublesome person. Oh well, at least I'll do a few things for you for letting Brûlée go..."

Anyway, you guys are a loose organization, and according to the information I've gathered privately, it seems like you can leave the organization at any time...

Uchiha Itachi remained silent for a moment before speaking, "Who told you about Akatsuki? Did anyone invite you to join Akatsuki before?"

Katakuri looked up at the sky and answered softly, "About two months ago, a guy named Black Zetsu appeared in Whole Cake Island, secretly sneaked into my room, and invited me to join Akatsuki, telling me that Akatsuki could help me protect my family..."

"..."

Itachi Uchiha fell silent again.

At that moment, he didn't know whether he should tell Katakuri the truth.

The Akatsuki organization has never been a loose organization. Currently, it seems that any member who tries to leave the Akatsuki almost always ends up with a bad fate…

Second update!
