Ninja World Sasuke & Imperial Itachi VS Akatsuki!

"How does it feel?"

Imperial Itachi slowly approached Ninja World Sasuke.

"Truly relieving. Now, only my dear brother remains to be dealt with!"

Ninja World Sasuke covered his face, tilting his head with a wicked grin.

"Good, then. Anyone who dares challenge the Uchiha clan deserves death. These four old bastards, I'll leave them here to wallow in despair until the sacrificial energy runs out." Imperial Itachi said with a cold expression.

"That's even better."

Ninja World Sasuke smiled again upon hearing this.

Hiruzen, Koharu, and Homura trembled: "Beasts… you two beasts, you won't die peacefully. I curse you…"

"This is your retribution! How laughable. What you inflicted on others, you can't bear when it's turned on you?" Ninja World Sasuke mocked.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

At the same time, Akatsuki had begun to move.

After learning of Imperial Obito's existence, they hatched a plan to seize the Three-Tails.

All organization members prepared to act.

However, due to the Empire, they were far more cautious, sending Zetsu to infiltrate Konoha first to scout the situation.

The result? Had he not scouted, things might've been fine, but upon observing, Zetsu saw Ninja World Tsunade leading a group of ninja back to Konoha. Having watched several Imperial martial arts tournaments, Zetsu despaired.

He knew Akatsuki's current strength couldn't defeat so many Imperial experts.

What now?

Could the plan to revive Mother truly fail?

'No! I won't allow it! Mother… I miss you so much!'

'Wait… Sasuke and Itachi left?'

Their strength was clearly formidable. Killing them first could weaken Konoha, paving the way to seize the Three-Tails.

Yes! Kill those two first!

With this in mind, Zetsu quietly returned from Konoha to Akatsuki's side, sharing his plan.

"Sasuke from this world and Itachi-san from another? What a strange pair. They clearly want to kill each other, but being from different worlds, they've miraculously united." Kisame grinned.

"Haha! Two pairs of Sharingan—I can't wait to blow them both sky-high." Deidara clenched his fists.

"Don't delay. Kill them quickly before their reinforcements arrive." Ninja World Obito urged.

Though Nagato inwardly scoffed at Obito's caution, he didn't object.

He also wanted to see the true strength of the Imperial experts Zetsu and Obito spoke of, so they moved together.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

"Someone's coming."

Imperial Itachi, about to lead Ninja World Sasuke back to Konoha, stopped and turned to look in a certain direction.

"Let them come. What's there to worry about?" Ninja World Sasuke said carelessly, brimming with confidence in his power.

"I sense killing intent. This group is likely after us." Imperial Itachi said calmly.

In the sky, a flock of white clay birds rained down.

"Art is an explosion!"

A loud roar echoed as countless birds latched onto Ninja World Sasuke and Imperial Itachi, detonating.

*BOOM!*

A blinding blaze covered a hundred-meter radius.

The ground shattered from the blast.

Smoke cleared.

A fourth-stage Susanoo, dozens of meters tall, stood firm.

On the other side, a hundred-meter red Susanoo, clad in tengu armor with wings, holding a sword and shield, stood tall too.

Ninja World Sasuke and Imperial Itachi appeared within their respective Susanoo.

Seeing these towering god-like figures, Akatsuki's expressions shifted slightly: "What's this? The Sharingan has such power?"

"Mangekyou Susanoo, in ancient times, called the power of gods… Be careful, everyone. Ordinary ninjutsu can't pierce Susanoo's defenses." Ninja World Obito said grimly.

Both Susanoo were immensely powerful.

Zetsu's eyelids twitched at Imperial Itachi's Susanoo. "Impossible! That's a Perfect Susanoo! Did the other world's Itachi take Sasuke's eyes? No, wrong—it's not quite a Perfect Susanoo; it's much smaller… why?"

Even Ninja World Sasuke was surprised by the oddity of Imperial Itachi's Susanoo. "What's with your Susanoo? Isn't a Perfect Susanoo only possible with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan?"

"Look closely at my Susanoo. It's only half-perfect, a product of long-term use of the Empire's secret elixir and Divine Tree cells. Consume more secret elixirs and Divine Tree potions, and you could reach this level too. Now, let's deal with the enemies first." Imperial Itachi said calmly.

The giant half-perfect Susanoo swung its hand, a hundred-meter sword aura slashing toward Deidara and the others in the sky!

"What a monstrous thing, with long-range attack capabilities like that." Deidara dangerously maneuvered his clay bird to dodge.

"Itachi-san from another world is indeed strong… then I'll step up! Water Release – Thousand Feeding Sharks!" Kisame leaped from the sky, forming seals mid-air, opening his mouth, and spewing a torrential flood that engulfed both Susanoo.

The water formed a thousand sharks, crashing against the Susanoo one by one.

"Ugh… I didn't expect this world's Kisame to have such immense chakra." Sasuke, bombarded within his Susanoo, felt its tremors and chakra drain despite the spiritual shield, surprised.

But he didn't care much, saying arrogantly: "Akatsuki members, tell me where Itachi and Naruto are, and I'll spare your lives."

"Oh, really? Such an arrogant little brat." Kisame said with a strange expression.

"Refusing, huh? Then I'll make you despair."

Susanoo conjured a bow and arrows, an arrow piercing the waves, shooting toward Kisame amidst the water.

But Kisame's speed in water was astonishingly fast, dodging with a twist.

"Quick dodge, little shark." Sasuke taunted.

"Bansho Ten'in!"

Tendo Pain and the other six Pains descended from the air. Tendo Pain aimed both hands at Sasuke's Susanoo, a powerful pull dragging it toward him.

Caught by the sudden attack, Ninja World Sasuke, drawing closer, noticed Tendo Pain and the six others beside him.

Seeing those mysterious ringed eyes, he said in shock: "Rinnegan! How can there be so many?"
