Chapter 769 One Cannonball Turns to Ashes
Sora Ninja Base.
The surrounding villages are now engulfed in flames.
And the families of those original Sky Ninja, as well as those dove Sky Ninja...
They have all been captured and taken to Ankerbandian.
They were all imprisoned in cells that could extract energy.
Obito and Moryo quickly arrived at the central control room.
There is a huge metal throne here, with many metal stripes on it, which are several levers and buttons.
"This is it. The control lever is over there. This is for climbing, this is for steering, and shifting back is for hovering."
The explanation by Wangliang and Obito.
Although Obito was quite old and had experienced a lot, he had never actually piloted a flying fortress before, so he was somewhat excited.
"Is the energy for the ascent sufficient?" Obito asked to confirm.
The demon replied, "The Zero Tail has already hatched, and the energy for climbing is more than enough."
"This is the first climb, and it has consumed quite a bit of energy."
"However, those Sky Ninja are enough. We need to leave here as soon as possible, otherwise it will be troublesome if Konoha follows the clues and finds us here."
Obito nodded as instructed, sat down in the chair, and began channeling energy into it.
All three lights below started flashing, and after a few dozen seconds, all three lights turned green.
Pulling the lever with soil, the massive Ankerbandian began to vibrate slowly.
The lower-level ninjas imprisoned in the cell all lay on the ground, wailing in agony.
The cell began to absorb large amounts of the people's life energy, causing them excruciating pain, as if their skin had been peeled off and their tendons had been pulled out.
The energy ignited the runes engraved on Ankerbandian.
The ground outside kept cracking, and the giant flying machine buried underground slowly rose into the sky amidst the collapsing earth and rocks.
Until its entire body flew off the ground and into the sky.
The entire flying fortress is very large, easily capable of accommodating thousands of people.
There's only one aircraft of this size in the entire ninja world.
It must be said, he truly is the last hope of the Sora Ninja.
After taking off, the flying fortress suddenly accelerated.
Within just over ten minutes, it climbed into the clouds and disappeared.
A few hours after Obito drove Ankelbandian away.
Sasori of the Red Sand and Kakuzu, whose wings were flapping with iron sand, also arrived here.
Kakuzu was somewhat surprised to see the ground completely rolled over, resembling the aftermath of a major earthquake.
Looking at the enormous crater, Kakuzu asked in bewilderment, "Is this flying fortress really that big?"
Scorpion shook his head. They had just finished interrogating the remaining Sky Ninjas and then flew over here without stopping.
Unexpectedly, we were still a step too late.
After all, even if they could fly, they couldn't match the speed of Obito's Kamui dimension.
“I’ll check the pit; you go see if anyone’s nearby,” Scorpion suggested.
Both Sasori and Kakuzu came with missions, so we must investigate carefully.
Kakuzu's body immediately split apart, and three Earth Grudges jumped out from his body to begin a thorough search.
Scorpion, on the other hand, went to the edge of the huge pit to see if there were any clues.
About ten minutes later, all the earth grudges of Kakuzu returned and merged back into Kakuzu.
"There wasn't a single living person in the village outside, only a few corpses."
"Their belongings were not packed in their room, so they must have been arrested."
"This is the body I found."
Kakuzu brought the corpse over and joined Sasori.
The scorpion had already measured out the underground pit, and upon hearing this, it jumped out of the pit:
"Let's go back first. We can get some information from the corpses."
Sasori knew that Orochimaru could use the Impure World Reincarnation technique, so naturally he didn't even intend to spare the corpse.
Kakuzu seemed quite relaxed about it, after all, he had already acquired six warships.
……
Obito, hidden in the clouds, had no idea that Kakuzu and Sasori had come to investigate the Sky Ninja's base.
He flew Ankerbandian into the clouds and then stopped inside them, where he and the demon inspected the flying fortress.
This fortress has a large number of stone statues and sacrificial sites. After all, it is the perfect weapon of the Sky Ninja Village, so naturally there is a certain amount of faith associated with it.
However, in Obito's view, these had become a complete burden on the fortress.
"We need to dismantle all these things so we can fly faster."
Obito had the demon record all the parts of the fortress that needed repair or demolition.
He and Black Jue were already only superficially on the same side, so he was overjoyed to have his own base and naturally wanted to manage it well.
"Would you like to try out Ankerbandian's weapons?" the demon asked casually.
Obito had no idea that this aerial fortress actually had weapons.
"What weapon?"
The demon gestured for Obito to follow him, and then they arrived at the lowest level of the fortress.
This is also where Zero-Tail was hatched before. The place is spacious, with runes covering the surrounding walls and a metal panel underneath.
"Here, we can use zero-tail energy to launch beyond-visual-range strikes."
The demon pointed to the metal panel and gestured.
As Obito approached the metal plate, a hideously ugly monster emerged from behind him.
The monster looked like a brown worm, wearing a white mask with the word "zero" written on it.
Numerous beige tentacles extended from its body.
These tentacles clung to the metal plate, and Obito immediately connected them in his mind.
They quickly learned how to use this super weapon.
A radar-like field of vision unfolded before his eyes, with several dots on it.
These were the six warships from the Sky Ninja Village.
A large amount of bluish-gray energy emanated from Obito's body.
All the runes in this space are activated and lit up.
The disc outside the aircraft flickered, and a massive amount of energy gathered on it.
Then, a huge beam of light pierced through the clouds and shone into the distance.
……
Kakuzu, standing atop the Fourth Kazekage puppet, was happily flying towards the six warships.
The weather was great, with a cloudless sky over the sea and excellent visibility.
Kakuzu could already see the six ships anchored at sea in the distance.
These behemoths may not be ideal for combat, but they would be good as transport ships for those Jonin.
Konoha is very wealthy; they wouldn't compete with him for this kind of money.
"I wonder which ninja village would be better off selling these ships to."
Kakuzu asked Sasori, "Is there much maritime trade in the Land of Fire?"
Scorpion, however, does know:
"There's a lot of business going on between Konoha and Kirigakure right now. If you're planning to sell these ships, you can just sell them to the Fire Country's trading company."
"They are not short of money."
Kakuzu looked at the ships. He didn't know their prices, but he figured selling them for 100 million wouldn't be a problem.
"Then I'll go back and find a buyer..."
When Kakuzu got to this point, he was suddenly startled.
A beam of yellow light shone directly onto the six ships from several hundred meters away from them.
Boom!
A huge explosion rang out, accompanied by a large amount of seawater being blasted into the sky.
A giant mushroom cloud appeared on the sea surface.
The raging hurricane spread out instantly.
Although Sasori and Kakuzu were already quite far away, the powerful wind pressure still blew them back dozens of meters.
Splash...
Accompanied by the sound of the seawater receding.
Those six ships have been blown to pieces.
Kakuzu stared blankly at the sea filled with wreckage.
"My money!!!"
