Starting as the mastermind behind Naruto

Chapter 799. Don your auspicious cloud black robes and greet the world!

"That's not fair."

Carol Danvers bit her lip in protest.

As a former soldier in the Kree army, Carol Danvers knew very well what Thanos truly represented in the universe…

That's a cosmic overlord that even the Kree wouldn't dare to provoke!

How could the leader of an organization assign a task like eliminating Thanos to a qualified new recruit like her? Isn't this blatantly trying to provoke her?

"There's no such thing as fair or unfair."

Uehara Naraku squatted down in front of Carol Danvers, reaching out to pinch her chin: "These kinds of missions are common in Akatsuki. If you can't do it, then get out of Akatsuki. That'll be the perfect time for me to send people to hunt down you, you traitor..."

"..."

That guy is a complete scumbag!

Carol Danvers was enraged by those words, and unable to contain her anger, she directly cursed at Uehara Naraku: "You're a piece of trash..."

"Thank you for the compliment."

Uehara Naraku smiled and nodded. At this moment, he seemed to care nothing for Carol Danvers's insults, for they were the powerless clamor of the weak.

next second!

Suddenly, Uehara Naraku forcefully slammed Carol Danvers' head against the wall, grabbed her hair, and whispered in her ear, "I forgive your rudeness, but you need to complete another mission. Nick Fury has gathered a lot of people to assassinate me. Go and cut off his head for me..."

"Frey is no threat to you!"

Carol Danvers tried her best to refute with a roll of her eyes.

Nick Fury and the Avengers posed no threat to powerhouses of their caliber. Uehara Naraku was simply settling a personal score again!

and…

This guy clearly knows she's Fury's friend!

Or rather, Nick Fury was one of her few friends on Earth, and that bastard really wanted to kill her by destroying her spirit!

"I hate that bald black man."

Uehara Naraku nonchalantly released his grip, even ruffling Carol Danvers's hair and styling it: "This world is never very reasonable, and besides, the Akatsuki organization wasn't exactly known for its logic..."

Uehara Naraku looked at the furious Carol Danvers and continued slowly, "I know you're friends... but unfortunately, Fury only uses you as a weapon..."

"Frey isn't that kind of person..."

"Unfortunately, I know him better than you do."

Uehara Naraku loosened his grip on Captain Marvel's hair and snapped his fingers at the people behind him: "Dormammu, open a door for our Lady Danvers. Let her leave here and think carefully about whether she's going to be a traitor or obediently carry out my mission..."

"…snort!"

Dormammu grunted, unleashing a torrent of dark energy as he raised his hand and opened a pitch-black spatial rift.

Under Dormammu's control, Carol Danvers' body floated up involuntarily and slowly flew into the spatial rift...

Uehara Naraku looked at Captain Marvel, who had been thrown out of the base, his expression somewhat inscrutable. His voice was cold as he said, "Oh, by the way, this is Dormammu, Akatsuki's new intern. His mission, like yours, is to attack Thanos's army..."

"..."

Carol Danvers looked surprised.

Unfortunately, she didn't have a chance to say anything more before she was thrown out of Akatsuki's base. After she left, the rift in the dark space quietly closed.

Carol Danvers appeared in space looking completely bewildered. She could barely make out that she was in the solar system and could still contact Nick Fury and his group.

Now she needed to seek advice from Nick Fury and others. After thinking for a while, Carol Danvers briefly summarized what had happened at Akatsuki's base.

Aside from concealing the fact that Uehara Naraku had asked her to kill Nick Fury—because Carol was a little worried about frightening them—she told Nick Fury, Steve Rogers, and the others everything else without holding back, seeking their opinions.

Of course, the most important task was to send her to attack Thanos.

The Avengers didn't yet understand what Thanos meant, and a group of them immediately began racking their brains to figure out the true intentions of that lunatic, Uehara Naraku...

"What exactly does he want to do?"

"He just wants me dead."

Carol Danvers succinctly explained Thanos's identity: "Thanos is the most powerful person in the universe. Although I don't think he's that powerful, his identity is very troublesome. Once you mess with Thanos, you're in deep trouble..."

"Then...we'll attack Thanos under the guise of Akatsuki?"

Nick Fury carefully considered his words before offering his advice, then added a warning: "However... be sure to protect yourself, Danvers. This mission doesn't seem to have a time limit?"

"Um…"

"This is a vulnerability..."

Just as Carol Danvers, the spy who had infiltrated Akatsuki, was discussing with his ally how to take advantage of the chaos, Uehara Naraku summoned his combat members at Akatsuki's base.

In fact…

Carol Danvers is overthinking things…

Uehara Naraku only wanted to use her as a freeloader, simply to make use of Captain Marvel as a force to attack Thanos's army.

"Haven't we been left here rusting long enough?"

Madara Uchiha sat cross-legged on a water pipe, grinning coldly, "So you've finally decided to let us out?"

"certainly."

Uehara Naraku nodded slowly, casually unfolding a virtual star map, and said softly, "Then please prepare yourselves. Starting tomorrow, we will wage war against the most powerful force in this world..."

"Let me first introduce our opponents!"

Uehara Naraku raised his hand and pulled up a picture of Thanos, chuckled, and said, "He's a very interesting person; he shares the same lofty ideals as us..."

At this point, Uehara Naraku's gaze fell on Uchiha Madara, and he said with a hint of sarcasm, "Perhaps his ideals were more noble than those of some of us with narrow-minded views. His life's efforts were simply to ensure the harmonious development of the universe..."

"You little rascal..."

Madara Uchiha was so angry that he laughed instead.

Hashirama Senju, standing nearby, quickly reassured his old friend, "Alright, Madara, let Uehara finish speaking first..."

"snort!"

Seeing his old friend speak, Madara Uchiha nonchalantly crossed his arms and shut his mouth: "Hurry up and finish, then tell us which guys we're going to kill!"

"Don't rush."

Uehara Naraku smiled and waved his hand, continuing, "Thanos is very important to me. I don't want to kill him like this. He is my prey... So I hope you all won't kill my prey so as not to make me unhappy."

As for Uehara Naraku being unhappy...

Aside from that heartless Deidara, how could anyone else in the Akatsuki possibly be happy...?

"Now let me tell you about my plan!"

Uehara Naraku raised his hand and pulled up a series of photos, continuing, "I need to destroy Thanos's army, completely take everything from him, and force him to help me obtain the remaining two Infinity Stones in the universe, so remember what I said..."

"Hmph, this plan isn't bad."

Madara Uchiha rarely praised Naraku Uehara, but then casually added dismissively, "At least this time you didn't replace all his men with yours..."

"..."

Uehara Naraku was silent for a moment, then suddenly looked up at Uchiha Madara: "You reminded me, you're right, I actually forgot to plant a spy next to Thanos..."

"..."

Madara Uchiha's eyes twitched.

This bastard... is he even capable of anything?

It's rare that he actually agreed to Uehara Naraku's plan!

"Alright, we'll talk about the spy thing later."

Uehara Naraku skipped over the topic of espionage and got down to business: "Let's talk about Thanos's army first! Thanos commands the largest army in the world, and four relatively powerful individuals help him manage these armies. What we need to do is destroy his army and gradually corner him..."

At this point, Uehara Naraku's expression turned serious: "I hope you all remember that destroying them is not the goal; the goal is to drive Thanos, who stands behind them, into a corner, because this is related to my next plan..."

"Thanos's minions are currently carrying out his plan to eliminate overpopulation on various overpopulated planets in the universe, while also searching for the Infinity Stones. They are currently scattered, so I also plan to disperse our forces..."

"The First Army will be led by Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju. I will have Orochimaru replenish the Hollow Zetsu army. Your main responsibility is to attack and annihilate Corvus Glaive..."

An image of an ugly person appeared on the virtual screen.

General Corvus Glaive, this guy looks a bit like a weasel, and doesn't even have the air of a strong person, making him uninteresting to look at.

Madara Uchiha's face was full of disdain: "Does someone like this even need me and Hashirama to deal with? Or should we just hand over that Thanos guy to me..."

"Mr. Ban, don't disrupt my plans."

Uehara Naraku's gaze fell on Uchiha Madara. After silencing Madara with a single sentence, he chuckled and continued, "So, Mr. Madara, you should probably tone it down a bit, lest Thanos become too desperate and lie low... If you can't do that, I can help you."

to be honest…

If Madara Uchiha hadn't been more restrained, the entire universe would probably have witnessed the spectacular sight of the two of them chasing and hacking through a fleet of interstellar warships...

If Madara Uchiha doesn't restrain himself enough, and Uehara Naraku helps him to restrain himself... that's definitely not what Madara Uchiha wants to see.

"Hmph, I'll know what I'm doing."

Madara Uchiha snorted and agreed.

"very good."

Uehara Naraku nodded in satisfaction and pulled out the second photo: "The Second Legion, led by Gol D. Roger and Mr. Edward Newgate, is tasked with attacking and besieging Black Dwarf. His defenses are said to be quite formidable..."

"Gurararara, then leave it to this old man!"

Edward Newgate laughed a few times and looked at Uehara Naraku: "Seems like a power-type opponent. Should Roger and I also hold back?"

"random."

Uehara Naraku shrugged indifferently: "I believe you two will know your limits. Alright, let's move on to the next one."

Uehara Naraku pulled up a new photo, and an even more lewd-looking figure appeared on the virtual screen: "The Third Army, led by Captains Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni and Aizen Sosuke, is to attack and annihilate Ebony Maw. He's an interesting fellow..."

"Yeah?"

Aizen casually raised his eyes, his fingers brushing a stray strand of hair from his forehead, exuding an exceptionally elegant air: "Do you find it interesting too?"

"Um."

Uehara Naraku smiled and nodded, looking at Aizen and saying, "I've heard that Ebony Maw is a very eloquent person, and he possesses wisdom that is beyond the reach of ordinary people."

"Is that so?"

Aizen frowned slightly, then slowly nodded. "He seems to be quite an interesting person. Should I bring him back?"

"That would be perfect."

Uehara Naraku seemed quite interested in Ebony Maw as he spoke, and his next sentence immediately revealed his purpose: "I want to see if we can make him a spy we planted next to Thanos. I wonder if this guy will betray Thanos?"

"..."

Aizen Sousuke fell into an eerie silence.

This clearly reminded Aizen of something unpleasant, because among the entire Edo Tensei army, he was the one most deeply hurt by Uehara Naraku's espionage tactics…

"Let's continue, the Fourth Army..."

Uehara Naraku pulled up a picture of a female demon and looked at Dormammu, who was wearing a black robe with auspicious clouds at the end: "Proxima Midnight is yours, Dormammu."

"I see."

Dormammu's illusory spirit nodded sullenly.

Although Dormammu may not seem particularly impressive, this newcomer who recently joined Akatsuki is actually Uehara Naraku's strongest subordinate...

after all…

Dormammu is essentially the will of a world... The others aren't even considered children of the world; they're more like rebels against the will of the world.

After assigning all the attack tasks, Uehara Naraku's gaze fell on a man with long black hair: "Mr. Orochimaru, then the task of providing you with an army is entrusted to you. Hopefully, the Void Zetsu army can survive in space..."

"Hehehe... No problem."

Orochimaru licked his lips and slowly nodded: "If needed, we can create another Edo Tensei army..."

"There's no need for that, they're just some small insects..."

Uehara Naraku clapped his hands, cleared the virtual screen in front of him, and said softly, "Alright, then I'll wait for news of your triumphant return... In the future, I will travel through the universe, and I hope to hear people spreading fear from Akatsuki along the way. Perhaps that would be the most satisfying thing for me as the leader."

"Hmph, so many demands..."

Madara Uchiha couldn't help but snort again.

Perhaps because he had no ties to the world, or perhaps because of his naturally arrogant personality, Madara Uchiha was probably the least afraid of Uehara Naraku among the entire Akatsuki Edo Tensei army.

This guy probably won't change it...

Uehara Naraku remained unperturbed, instead smiling and retorting, "If the requirements aren't high, wouldn't that be a bit too disrespectful to everyone?"

"You talk too much nonsense..."

Madara Uchiha still wanted to talk back.

Hashirama Senju saw Uehara Naraku's forehead twitch, then patted Madara's shoulder helplessly, finally calming him down.

"alright."

Uehara Naraku didn't pursue the matter further, and looking at everyone present, continued, "Go, everyone! Don your auspicious cloud black robes, and use our Akatsuki methods..."

Say hello to the world!
