After Itachi had gone, Kuroto moved deeper into the fortress and was soon greeted by Gaara and Karin who have been staying here for a while now.

Looking at Kurotos pale look and struggle in moving, Gaara asked quickly, Kuroto-sama are you are you alright?

Karin also said, If you are injured th then you can take a bite it should heal.

Kuroto shook his head and said with a gentle smile, Dont worry, I am not injured, the problem is something else and it wouldnt heal that way both of you can continue to do what you were doing and by the way, Gaara I have to talk to you about something but it will have to wait sometime

Karin had a disappointed look, while Gaara was worried and also curious as to what is it that Kuroto wants to talk to him about.

However, for now, both of them did as Kuroto said and did not disturb him.

Both the kids know that they are far too immature and lack knowledge and true understanding of a whole lot of things so they have come to believe that if Kuroto is saying something, then it must be the case.

After sending away the two kids, Kuroto reached his private quarters.

Here, Kuroto took off all his clothes to check the exact status of his body and realized that the area of petrification this time was more than the last time. However, because his body is already somewhat used to Natural Energy, he was sure that it would only take him about two weeks at most to wash away all the extra Natural Energy.

Unfortunately, I dont have two weeks at my hand I will have to do the bare minimum that I can and then go back to Konoha around the same time everyone returns because the impact that this news will bring to Konoha is too much Kuroto muttered and then started to wash out Natural Energy from all his joints so that he can at least carry out all the basic movements.

And while doing so he also summarized this entire raid on Akatsuki.

Benefits: To be honest, there were no benefits in this raid but I can make myself feel optimistic by thinking that the information about Akatsuki and the true level of danger they represent can now be revealed to the shinobi world. The fact that the joint high-level force of Konoha, Kumo, and Suna couldnt suppress Akatsuki will cause a shock for the entire Shinobi World. So everyone will start taking the threat of Akatsuki more seriously.

Additionally, the fact that something is wrong with Kirigakure is also revealed to

From the tri-Alliance: The death of Kazekage, capture of Jinchuriki of Nibi, injuries of Ino-Shika-Cho Patriarch, injuries of Elder Chiyo and Elder Ebizo, as well as death of ninety percent of combat personnel involved in this raid.

And as for other losses, the information about Yamas power was revealed although not completely as things like Truth-Seeking Balls, Tenseigan Chakra Mode, and other Jutsu would still be a mystery for everyone other than Zetsu, additionally, theres also a further decrease in Shisuis visual prowess, so he is only a few steps away from total blindness.

In addition, there are a few other concerns too, and that is the fact that Nagato has finally decided to stand up, and for that, he even accepted Obito and Zetsus help he stood up with the power of a Zetsu Clone.

These two are very big things.

It must not be forgotten that even though Nagato and Konan were working under the orders of Madara, both of them were still extremely cautious of him.

Precisely because of this Konan prepared 600 billion explosive tags in secret to kill Madara.

Madara was also the same, he never revealed many truths to Nagato and Konan, especially the ones like Izanagi, other Kinjutsu, Juinjutsu, biotechnologies, and secrets that Madara left behind were never revealed to Nagato.

Such differences continued until the very end.

Their ultimate goal may be Peace but the meaning of peace differs for both of them and the method to achieve their own definitions of peace also differs for both of them.

One is a self-proclaimed God who believes that Pain and suffering are the only way to peace, therefore he intends to create a weapon of mass destruction to achieve his own definition of peace, while the other person is a self-centered individual who has given up on everything in this Shinobi World, as such he wants the whole world to be covered in a Genjutsu to achieve an illusionary peace.

Both of them had their determinations to achieve their goals and for that, they were unwilling to compromise.

However, thats no longer the case here, at least partially.

The existence of Amatsukami, more specifically, the existence of Yama who almost killed Nagato is the main reason why they had to put aside their own barriers and cooperate

Now the most important question here is, Can Nagato successfully fuse Hashirama Cell in his body?

This is a doubt lingering in Kurotos mind.

Kuroto carefully thought of all the known people who have been successfully transplanted with Hashirama Cells and found one common factor in all of them except for one.

Except for Yamato the lucky boy who survived Orochimarus experiment, all other people had Uchihas Sharingan as the common factor, although the degree of adaptation with Hashirama Cells varied from person to person depending on their Visual Prowess

Uchiha Madara had a single Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan at the time of cell transplantation.

After successfully transplanting Hashirama Cells, Uchiha Madara not only awakened Mokuton and was as proficient with it as non-Sennin Senju Hashirama, he also awakened the Rinnegan.

Uchiha Obito also had only one Sharingan at the time of cell transplantation. He did survive and in fact, half of his body is made up of Hashirama Cells.

Uchiha Obito too awakened Mokuton, but perhaps it was because of his weak strength at the time of transplantation, or probably because of the lack of Otsutsuki Indras Chakra, his Mokuton was quite weak in fact, at least weak compared to Uchiha Madara.

The third known individual who survived the Hashirama Cell Transplantation is Shimura Danzo.

He may not be a member of the Uchiha Clan, but he did possess quite a lot of Sharingan, and therefore, he was also able to use Uchihas Kinjutsu: Izanagi. As for Mokuton? Danzo did awaken Mokuton, but his control over Mokuton was even weaker than Uchiha Obitos. Be that as it may, he was only able to balance the Yang Chakra that comes with Hashirama Cell with Yin Chakra of Uchihas Sharingan.

In conclusion, it wouldnt be wrong to say that theoretically, as long as someone can balance out the Yang Chakra that comes with Hashirama Cells he can survive Hashirama Cell transplantation.

Nagato is inherently an Uzumaki so his Yang constitution is predominant additionally he also bears a pair of Rinnegan moreover, he also has Gedo Mazo with him there is also Hiruko at his side and most of all, he would have also gained all the knowledge Uchiha Madara had left behind that would help him out a lot.

Given that Gedo Mazo can both give life force as well as suck on the life force Gedo Mazo is a solution for both the problem that can come during the transplantation process.

Extra life Force can be sucked out and lack of life force can be provided so if I think about it at this point in time, Nagato has the most chances of surviving Hashirama Cell Transplantation He would be facing the least amount of risk.

Besides, Uzumaki Naruto did get his right hand made out of Hashirama Cells so the Uzumaki Constitution shouldnt reject Hashirama Cells to such a degree

Kuroto sighed, Its a shame that I was unable to kill Nagato and if Hashirama Cells are transplanted into him then he would definitely avoid the deterioration of his body because of my attack

Whats more troublesome is that once Nagato is transplanted with Hashirama Cells, he might even awaken Mokuton and if he does it is highly likely that his Mokuton will be as strong as non-Sennin Mode Hashiramas Mokuton because of his high amount of Yang Chakra

Moreover, once the Uzumaki and Senju physique are combined successfully his physical strength will also increase exponentially, it might even reach the level of Rikudo Sennin himself.

His already massive chakra will gain another massive boost

There is also a possibility that he can learn to use Senjutsu perfectly which would mean that he can use Senpou: Mokuton

He might even be able to further explore Madaras Rinnegan Awakening abilities that only Madara used.

I really dont want to think about the possibility of him being able to use Susanoo its highly unlikely because he doesnt have Uchiha genes but there is always an if and this if is really too scary If he is really able to use Susanoo too then I am not even sure what would I do then Kuroto thought as his face paled after realizing all of these possible ifs

Damn, did my actions just create the appearance of a monster who is a combination of Full powered Rinnegan Uchiha Madara and Sennin Mode Senju Hashirama?

But all of these if depends on another if, such things will only happen if Obito agrees is willing to take the risk and the question is, will Obito do so?
