Looking at the members of the Kara Organization who had finally surfaced, Shikamaru now looked at them, and at the same time, at the revived members of Akatsuki.

"Sure enough! They didn't really die!"

"They are all still alive!"

However, hearing Shikamaru say this, Amado laughed. "Wrong, wrong, wrong! They are already dead!"

"When a person is dead, they are dead. How can they be revived!"

Hearing this, Shikamaru was taken aback. This guy actually refuted him, but the people before him, weren't they...

"They are of course also real people!"

"But they are not the previous Akatsuki members!" As he spoke, Amado walked forward and came to the front, looking at the huge Konoha Village.

"Konoha! The strongest ninja village in the shinobi world, with abundant financial resources, powerful ninja, and at the same time, the largest scientific ninja tool research unit. But it's a pity."

"Konoha's scientific ninja tool development is too slow!" Amado put his sunglasses back on.

"These are all clones!"

"Cloned from the cells of the dead Akatsuki members!"

"They did indeed truly die, but a part of their memories was intercepted and preserved by me!"

"And at the same time, it has been passed on to these people!" As he spoke, Amado, as if waiting for praise, quietly looked at Shikamaru.

In Shikamaru's understanding, this meant that the Akatsuki members were dead, but in a sense, they were not completely dead. Their clone bodies were still there, and at the same time, they had the exact same memories as them.

Jigen looked at Ōtsutsutsuki Kaguya before him. "As a member of the Ōtsutsutsuki clan, you have betrayed the Ōtsutsutsuki again!"

Hearing this, Kaguya frowned. "Are you Isshiki?" When she said this, Shikamaru and the others were instantly stunned.

"Wait, what did you say? He is Isshiki?"

"But he is clearly just a human!"

Kaguya smiled. "This human has Isshiki's Karma on him. He can be reincarnated through this human at any time!"

Karma! This thing had been mentioned before. Shikamaru naturally knew what it was. "What? He has Karma on him? Then doesn't that mean that Isshiki is always the true... of the Kara Organization?"

Just as he was speaking, another person took off his mask. "How long are we going to talk! Can't we start?"

"Destroy Konoha, and we can leave!" And the moment this guy who was speaking took off his mask, the Konoha ninja were all stunned, especially the ninja of Shikamaru's generation.

"You... you... you are Lord Jiraiya!" But didn't Sasuke say that Lord Jiraiya had taken his clan to some place to recuperate with Tsunade? How could he now appear in the Kara Organization?

"Jiraiya?"

"Hmph! Sorry, you've mistaken me for someone else. I am not Jiraiya!"

"My name is Kashin Koji!"

Amado smiled. "You are right about that. A clone of Jiraiya!"

"But it doesn't come with Jiraiya's memories, so he can be considered an independent person!"

Clones. It seemed the Kara Organization had mastered a very powerful cloning technique! They could be created at will.

"To destroy Konoha, isn't that our purpose this time? Aren't we going to start yet, everyone!" Nagato's voice sounded.

Amado also nodded. "Indeed, we can start!"

At this moment, Kaguya suddenly opened her hands. "I'd like to see who dares to move!" Instantly, Kaguya's chakra erupted, and a terrifying dōjutsu power shockwave suddenly spread out.

And Jigen opened his eyes, using his dōjutsu to resist Kaguya's dōjutsu impact. "Just you! You want to stop us?"

"To say you've betrayed the Ōtsutsutsuki, even if you hadn't, it would be of no use. You're just the weakest member of the Ōtsutsutsuki clan! Who do you think you are!"

"Ōtsutsutsuki Kaguya!" Jigen made a move directly. In an instant, a fist slammed heavily towards Kaguya. And at that moment, Itachi's dōjutsu power erupted, directly forming a substantial shockwave that sent Isshiki flying.

"Hmph! You actually didn't die! Then I'll kill you again!" Suddenly, Menma appeared directly, crashing into Itachi. And at the same time, Obito also made a move. The people on both sides made their moves one after another.

For a time, in front of the Konoha gate, a chaotic burst of chakra rapidly spread out.

Shadow Imitation Technique! Shikamaru, in the chaos, also locked his target onto the members of the Akatsuki-Kara organization. The two sides clashed, and a great battle was on the verge of breaking out.

And at this moment, Sasuke and Naruto, the two of them, had also arrived in the alternate dimension. At this moment, Isshiki was sitting at the foot of the God Tree. Looking at the two who had suddenly appeared, he slowly got up. "I knew you would find your way here!"

"Have you discovered the God Tree?" Isshiki smiled.

Looking at the Isshiki before him, Sasuke immediately felt that something was wrong. Because the Isshiki before him seemed to be a little stronger than before. This feeling made Sasuke feel a little strange. How did Isshiki get stronger for no reason? Was it because he had taken a beating? If he could really get stronger like that, then Isshiki's ability was too unlucky.

"So this is the new God Tree?" Naruto looked at the huge God Tree before him. Compared to the original God Tree, the size was different. There was no doubt that this God Tree would probably brew a chakra fruit that was several times more terrifying. Thinking of this, Naruto looked at Isshiki on the side.

"Are you guarding it, waiting for the God Tree to mature?"

Hearing this, Isshiki shook his head. "No, no, no! For this God Tree to mature, it would probably take five or six hundred years, or even a thousand years. It's simply impossible!"

"Since that's the case, what are you guarding it for?"

Isshiki smiled. "Don't you know? As a member of the Ōtsutsutsuki clan, the opportunity to become a god is this!"

Naruto smiled. "A god? A ridiculous statement. If there really was a god in the world, then why doesn't it care about the affairs of this world!" This statement was met with a sneer from Isshiki.

"What do you think a god is like? For example, would you care about the wars of ants, whether they live or die?"

"Perhaps in your eyes, not caring about it is already the best way to handle it."

"In the eyes of a god, we are the same." Isshiki looked at the sky.

"Humans are like ants, and we Ōtsutsutsuki clan members are just some bigger insects."

Naruto's face was cold. "If that's the case, then what's the benefit of becoming a god?"

Isshiki sighed. "It seems you will not understand!"

Eternal life, endless years, a god dominates everything. The people of the Ōtsutsutsuki clan are all in pursuit of such a realm. As for what to do after becoming a god, this was probably something that even the Ōtsutsutsuki themselves didn't know what to do after becoming a god!

Isshiki sighed. "Perhaps for you, just living is good enough. But for the Ōtsutsutsuki clan, if we cannot advance towards the realm of gods, then living is meaningless!" Of course, there were exceptions. The only exception was Kaguya. And it was such an exception as Kaguya that created the existence of the shinobi world! And created so many Kekkei Genkai of humans! It was Kaguya who opened up all possibilities!
