Starting as the mastermind behind Naruto

Chapter 741 Don't worry, you can't escape even if you die.

Uehara Naraku had long harbored feelings for the Ancient One.

For a long time, in order to resist Dormammu's invasion, the Ancient One finally came into contact with dark energy, which plunged her into a long period of inner turmoil.

Because she had to choose to come into contact with dark energy, the Ancient One could not guarantee her own conscience, nor could she set an example for other sorcerers. She even worried that one day she might be corrupted by Dormammu.

Until the Ancient One chose Dr. Strange as the successor to the Sorcerer Supreme, she chose to leave Earth through physical death and live in the universe as a spirit.

Look at the moral character of His Holiness the Venerable Master!

As the leader of the sorcerers, the Ancient One's mere contact with a tiny amount of dark energy resulted in her physical death and eternal soul...

Let's take a look at the big guys in the Akatsuki organization...

They are basically super villains from various worlds, or leaders of super powers in various worlds, and their conduct is more or less not very clean.

Fortunately, Uehara Naraku recruited these villains into the Akatsuki organization, leading them onto the right path. Now, it's a good opportunity to have the Ancient One join the Akatsuki and show those guys what true character is...

of course.

There is another reason.

Uehara Naraku has been using the black hole universe to gather the worlds he has experienced. The black hole universe has established segmented galaxies, and each galaxy needs a manager.

The highest-ranking leader in the ninja world is naturally Nagato, the previous leader of the Akatsuki organization. He is one of the two people that Uehara Naraku respects the most!

The world of One Piece is currently governed by the Akatsuki organization, led by Konan and Kaguya Otsutsuki, and includes former Yonko Kaido and Big Mom, Fleet Admiral Sengoku and Marine Hero Garp, as well as other members...

For example, Kisame Hoshigaki, a super VIP elder member of the Akatsuki organization...

Besides these, there are also part-time workers like Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto...

Meanwhile, Konan and Kisame, who received the majority of votes, spent their days doing nothing but traveling around the pirate world, while Sasuke Uchiha and his good friend Portgas D. Ace were busy working for peace in the pirate world...

There are no administrators in the world of Ainz Ooal Gown.

Uehara Naraku essentially left that world to its own devices, since it was mostly a game world with only one real planet.

The administrator of the Bleach world is Kabuto Yakushi.

Kabuto Yakushi was once Naraku Uehara's favorite subordinate, and to this day, Kabuto still provides Naraku Uehara with his disciple Gin Ichimaru to serve him!

Uehara Naraku also planned to find an opportunity in the future to have Kabuto Yakushi and his teacher Orochimaru reappear as the Nine-Headed Serpent or something...

Now it's the Marvel universe's turn.

As the largest world Uehara Naraku experienced, the Marvel universe contains numerous planets, and Uehara Naraku even wanted to fill his own universe with the entire Marvel universe.

nature…

This also requires a manager.

The Akatsuki members were relatively weak, so Uehara Naraku set his sights on a few decent individuals... The Ancient One was undoubtedly his first choice.

At least it's visible...

The Ancient One is a trustworthy person.

Uehara Naraku believed the Ancient One to be a good person and wanted to recruit her into the Akatsuki organization, secretly hoping she would become the future ruler of the Marvel universe…

However, there is a problem here…

Uehara Naraku admired the Ancient One's character...

The Ancient One couldn't see the true character of Uehara Naraku!

After all, the future Doctor Strange and the Avengers all seemed to harbor deep resentment towards Uehara Naraku, as if Uehara Naraku would do many terrible things to them in the future…

The Ancient One twirled her ring, her brow furrowing slightly. "I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I cannot accept your invitation. The Sorcerer Supreme's duty requires us to uphold fairness, and we should not join any organization..."

After saying that, the Ancient One raised her hand to return the ring to Uehara Naraku, but Uehara Naraku refused.

"Please accept the ring first!"

Uehara Naraku raised an eyebrow, a smile playing on his lips: "Through this ring, you might discover other powers... Whatever those powers may be, they're surely brighter than Dormammu's dark power, aren't they?"

"you…"

The Ancient One's brow furrowed even more, but then instantly relaxed: "It seems the Sorcerer Supreme isn't the only one monitoring the darkness of this world..."

only…

Uehara Naraku's words made the Ancient One even more wary!

Uehara Naraku still wore a calm smile, but his smile hinted at the danger hidden beneath.

"Want to try it out?"

Uehara Naraku watched as the Ancient One put away the ring, then chuckled and continued, "Now that they've left, we can test our strength here..."

The battle just now was practically child's play for Uehara Naraku.

Aside from Thanos, even the future Avengers might not be able to withstand the sheer power he unleashed. Now that those eyesores are gone…

"..."

The Ancient One's expression instantly turned serious.

The Ancient One extended her left hand, her small palm held upright in front of her chest, and a powerful magical force suddenly erupted from her body!

This force…

This is completely different from what it was just now!

The Ancient One slapped her palm into the air in front of her, and the entire mirror world's architecture churned like waves on the sea!

Do not…

The air in the mirrored world is also churning!

A powerful shockwave emanated from the Ancient One and spread outwards instantly, striking Uehara Naraku with tremendous force!

Uehara Naraku punched thin air!

The air began to crack instantly under that punch!

The entire mirror world trembled under this punch, and an even more powerful shock swept towards the Ancient One!

"This power..."

Ancient One's expression became even more tense. She flipped her palms together to form a hand seal and slammed her palm in front of her. A rhomboid spatial barrier appeared in front of her!

Uehara Naraku's punch was enough to split the entire Americas!

Even if the Ancient One defended herself with a spatial barrier, it would be to no avail!

Click...

As expected…

The spatial barrier shield shattered instantly!

All the Ancient One needed was this much time. Her hand moved again, forming the same gesture, and an even thicker, rhomboid spatial barrier finally blocked the aftershock of the punch…

In the past, when had the Ancient One ever encountered an enemy like Uehara Naraku?

This guy, relying solely on his powerful physical energy, was able to fight against a Sorcerer Supreme who had pushed his spiritual energy to its limits!

"Good block on the first punch..."

Uehara Naraku's laughter quietly reached the Ancient One's ears: "So, what will you use to block the second punch?"

Click...

The even thicker spatial barrier in front of the Ancient One suddenly shattered!

Uehara Naraku's figure strode proudly through a pile of spatial barrier fragments and charged fiercely toward the Ancient One's body!

"So fast..."

The Ancient One's arm instantly flipped, and her body suddenly turned into a series of afterimages and disappeared from the spot. Her fingers did not stop even when she was escaping Uehara Naraku's close-range attack!

A portal to another dimension quietly appeared beneath her feet!

This is also a common tactic used by mages... By skillfully using spatial portals, they can manipulate most people at will!

"Black Hole Annihilation".

Uehara Naraku spread his five fingers and aimed them at the spatial portal beneath the Ancient One's feet. He immediately sensed the Ancient One's intentions and thwarted her plan.

next moment.

A beam of pitch-black light shot out from Uehara Naraku's palm, instantly annihilating the spatial gate beneath the Ancient One's feet!

"This is troublesome..."

Ancient One's expression turned even more grim!

Her body silently transformed into afterimages!

Only by moving at high speed to a form almost like a clone can one evade Uehara Naraku's close-range attacks. The problem is, this guy isn't just good at hand-to-hand combat!

As afterimages form…

Countless clones of the Ancient One appeared in the sky!

Compared to that, the Shadow Clone Technique of the ninja world is simply no match!

"Flames, burn."

Uehara Naraku raised his hand again, and the scorching fire wave instantly engulfed all of the Ancient One's clones!

Uehara Naraku's figure vanished from the spot in an instant, and using the flames as cover, he slapped the Ancient One on the shoulder!

Bang!

A soul entity was created!

The Ancient One's soul was directly slapped out by Uehara Naraku!

At this moment, Gu Yi vaguely felt that the world was somewhat absurd. She never thought that someone would use this move of hers!

Do not…

They are different...

The only reason Uehara Naraku was able to extract her soul was because he possessed extremely terrifying mental power, allowing him to forcefully knock a person's soul out!

The two clashed once again in terms of mental energy!

Flames scorched everything in the air!

Under the Ancient One's control, the waves on the ground swept in and engulfed the flames!

Scorching water vapor began to spread throughout the entire mirror space!

With the future Avengers leaving, the entire Mirror Dimension became the battlefield between Uehara Naraku and the Ancient One!

"Wind Release".

Uehara Naraku raised his hand and created a gust of wind, instantly blowing away the mist and steam of the mirror space, and suddenly aimed his palm at the Ancient One!

"Hado #90, Black Coffin!"

A square pillar imprisoned the Ancient One's soul!

Uehara Naraku possessed enough power to deal with the Ancient One's soul form. When they clashed at the soul level, Uehara Naraku even had the upper hand!

Through thousands of years of accumulation in the Bleach world, and the spiritual power of the entire Bleach world, Uehara Naraku's soul is strong enough to make people's scalp tingle!

Boom!

The black coffin was slapped open by Gu Yi's palm!

The Supreme Master's gaze subtly became somewhat complicated.

"flesh…"

"soul…"

"element…"

The Ancient One meticulously listed Uehara Naraku's abilities.

This guy is truly flawless from every angle…

In this battle, the Ancient One did not use the ordinary magic of the Sorcerer Supreme, because she knew that it would be futile and only a waste of energy…

"Alright, let's stop here..."

Just as the Ancient One was still pondering, Uehara Naraku suddenly spoke up, halting the battle: "There was a slight mishap; the war outside is almost over..."

The Battle of New York is in trouble!

This is what Uehara Naraku is most worried about.

The Battle of New York was the starting point for his rise as a superhuman within S.H.I.E.L.D., and it was also the starting point for him to use his identity as Akatsuki to begin his actions and make the entire Earth accept Akatsuki's existence.

"Um?"

The Ancient One looked puzzled, but her eyes gradually filled with light as she used her magical powers to observe the outside world.

The Battle of New York definitely went wrong.

No, it should be said that the problem lies with the Chitauri.

With the Akatsuki joining the battle, even though they restrained their power, they still couldn't avoid a massacre of the invading Chitauri...

The Chitauri mothership…

I was accidentally hit by a blue phantom flash.

All the Chitauri who invaded Earth seemed to have gone offline; their neural networks were severed, and they completely lost their lives…

war…

It ended so abruptly.

No, it should be said that it was just the end of a war.

"I have to clean up the mess."

Uehara Naraku raised his hand and released a gravitational force that pulled up the soul of the Ancient One!

Uehara Naraku held the Ancient One's soul in one hand and her body in the other, merging them into one. This feeling made the Ancient One's thoughts increasingly strange...

How could this day have come for her?

Isn't it all because she projects other people's souls into reality?

"I'm leaving now."

Uehara Naraku raised his palm and slammed it against the spatial barrier of the Mirror World. The barrier shattered instantly before him. "I hope you will seriously consider inviting me to join Akatsuki..."

A passage was opened directly!

Breaking through the spatial barrier with brute force is far more impressive than the magic used by the mages of this world to open spatial gates!

One who relies on their own formidable strength…

One can only cheat through magic...

After walking through the spatial passage, Uehara Naraku slowly turned around and watched as the spatial barrier behind him closed up again.

Uehara Naraku and the Ancient One peered at each other through the ever-shrinking spatial passage, their expressions and thoughts quite different.

Uehara Naraku waved goodbye to the Ancient One, his smile growing wider: "Even if you're just a soul left, you can't escape. Death is never the end..."

not to mention…

Even if the Ancient One dies in the future…

Uehara Naraku could just capture her soul...

Another reason why Uehara Naraku ended this battle was because he sensed the strength of the Ancient One's soul power... and of course, the most important reason was...

Someone has already returned the Time Stone.

Time is so unpredictable.

"What a busy life..."

For those future Avengers, they may have already borrowed the Time Stone for a very long time, but the person who came to return the Time Stone has arrived at the next point in time.

"Let's solve the Cosmic Cube first..."

Uehara Naraku slowly raised his head and looked at the still-operating spatial energy channel of the Cosmic Cube. His figure instantly disappeared from the rooftop of the New York Temple.

"Then there's the Time Stone and the Mind Stone..."

good night!
