A charming seductive lady hung above in the sky of Konoha.
This lady had a dominatrix clothes on that showed a lot of her skin and various precious parts that were only slightly covered.
This was iris heart.
'One gate SSS rank gate exploding can already harm an Ex rank… but there's multiple…'
At the last moment, everything had turned dangerous, so she stopped her own current mission, and teleported to help out.
But, even though she reinforced the barrier, it seemed like even she wouldn't be able to stop that attack.
She was furious about that, and about herself as she at that moment, even considered just escaping this place as she couldn't stop such an attack.
If possible, she would just take Ren…
But then he persevered and pulled the impossible.
He created the opportunity for them all, and she helped them.
After all, this attack can even harm her much less them, so how can Ren's attack stop it and divert its power to the sides?
No. she had supplied it with enough power to do so, enough power to help them all stay safe.
She had thought no one noticed her but when the dust raised, she saw Ren looking in her direction with a gentle smile.
She knew what that smile meant, and despite feeling stressed out, since she had already been on a tirade finishing SSS ranked gates and above, at this moment she smiled back at him.
For ren's smile meant: I'll make sure to give you a good time later! And that was something exciting for her.
She then left the place.
**********
A cloud of dust was raised all around.
It raged on as it covered the whole territory of the Konoha agency and thus disrupted the visibility leaving no chance to see what was happening.
It continued on for a while, and the silence was heavy until it finally dissipated.
When it did, the dome barrier that was protecting the whole of Konoha was seen once again.
It was like a very thin shell right now, with visible web cracks all over it, as if a single breath by one of the people behind it, can knock it down and make it crumble into dust.
But, there was no hole inside of it, meaning it had managed to withstand the full force of the attack of the gates exploding with a black hole.
As if to show how impressive such a feat of withstanding that attack was, the surrounding area was also finally shown.
The whole of the ground was razed completely, and any hill that had previously existed was flattened right now, and in fact, it seemed like the whole terrain had lowered in height by at least a few meters.
This made the ground on which Tatsumaki's barrier existed higher than the rest, and by comparison, just showed how impressive the people inside were for staying alive.
The whole ground was destroyed and changed so much, that one wouldn't have thought the Konoha existed in this place, if not for the remnant buildings that Tatsumaki and Ren had saved.
But, Tatsumaki at this moment seeing this, had a thought.
'If I didn't protect the whole of Konoha, I may be able to withstand that…'
She didn't finish her thought, as the barrier crumbled at that time and Ren fell to one knee, while the cloak surrounding the two dissolved.
'It seems I am too arrogant, haha,' For the first time in a while, she laughed internally, and she even sported a very thin smile externally. It was almost unnoticeable, but it was directed toward Ren.
No one could blame her for her turbulent thoughts and emotions, since everyone was about to die at that moment.
'Maybe…'
Tatsumaki took a deep breath as she sat on the ground in exhaustion, while blood dripped from her nose for using so much psychic energy.
She had long landed on the ground s she couldn't stay floating due to the energy consumption.
But now, she had a certain thought.
'Maybe I should apologize to him…?'
She wasn't exactly the nicest person to him or to anyone in general.
But Ren had saved her and many others this time, even when she had treated him so bad and accused him in regards to corrupting her little sister.
She didn't register the cheers of the people around her, and the medical-nin who clamored around her as they tried to heal her.
Rather, she locked her eyes on Ren who was similarly swarmed with healers, with Tsunade in the lead of them.
She wasn't jealous, she was just enjoying watching silently as she felt a pull toward him.
'What is… this?'
She put her hand on her chest as she felt her heartbeat quicken, but her eyes didn't leave Ren.
'Who or what is he looking toward?'
She saw Ren looking with a smile toward somewhere in the sky.
Though she didn't want to, she reluctantly turned to see what had captured his interest, but despite her great eyesight enhanced by her psychic ability, she couldn't see anything.
**********
Ren sighed to himself, as he just let go of his control and laid down on his back right on the ground.
"You idiot, don't just lay on the ground like that,"
A voice came near his ears.
It was Tsunade who was healing Ren personally.
Truthfully, she didn't have anything to heal since Ren wasn't injured.
She was just diagnosing him and seeing if he had something wrong with him out of her own worry.
But when she finished she found out he wasn't sick or anything. Which was great news. But also shocking considering what he had just done.
That amount of energy coursing through his body at once should have left some great damage inside his body.
And it did, but ren was now greatly fortunate by having the Sanbi sealed inside of him. Since the Bijuu tended to give high regeneration and stamina, plus a high reserve of energy.
"It's fine, it's fine,"
Ren muttered while completely exhausted.
*Snort*
She snorted but stopped her Jutsu and sat upright near him.
'I'll cut him some slack…'
She was quite considerate and didn't nag him as she would do to someone close to her usually.
However, there was a small blush on her cheeks as she saw him like that on the ground, with his t-shirt messed up and showing a bit of his abs enticingly.
"Still… to think even you would lack stamina one day, haha,"
It wasn't in the bed of course, but she couldn't help but take the jab at him.
But ren's response, despite him almost falling asleep from the tiredness left her gobsmacked, and sort of… excited.
"Come test me later on then,"
She knew what he meant exactly by that.
So, her cheeks dyed red and she took a deep breath and turned her head from him.
**********
Meanwhile, once the barrier crumbled and everyone laid down to get some treatment if they were injured, while the others took a perimeter around in case their enemies came back, it seemed like their decision was correct.
A couple of seconds later, a fissure once again appeared and from it came down the Akatsuki members who were still alive, and Pain and Obito.
But the scenery they came to see wasn't exactly like they had been expecting at all.
"How is this possible?"
Obito was the first to voice his shock.
His tone was full of shock as if he was sure what he was seeing should be impossible.
'I can't survive that… scratch that, even Madara can't survive that…'
Obito was pretty sure of that, since this was an attack that was going to obliterate the monster named Hashirama from this world, and Madara was weaker than the guy so…
Still, he wasn't allowed to think anymore when all of a sudden, two people appeared nearby them without alerting them at all.
Obito didn't stay to see who they were as he phased through and disappeared to his own dimension.
He had a lot of regrets, as despite acquiring enough chakra for the Gedo Mazo, he still wanted to catch the Bijuu fully, for the best results overall.
But these two newest additions held so much power, that he didn't even have enough time to take his group members with him and instead only ran away alone.
'Fuck!'
He couldn't help but curse as he considered them all as good as dead.
Back in Konoha the two newest additions, couldn't be seen by the Akatsuki members, and only Pain or rather negate could see them.
"Who are you?"
He demanded to know from them but the two just ignored him. Also, he wondered why only he could see them. Were the others under a Genjutsu?
"Sigh, Obito ran away…"
"Hm, I would have liked to take him with us too but even we can't bring him from there…"
Nagato heard their words and wondered to himself.
'Obito? Who is that? Are they talking about Madara?'
Then the next thing that happened was them speaking.
"Well, Nagato, you'll be coming with us now, and the rest of these guys too,"
The two spoke before they all suddenly disappeared.
As soon as they came, they had already gone, and Konoha regained its tranquillity.
Only a voice was left.
"Does this count as a kidnapping?"
