After figuring this out, Shinji smiled: "Alright, I'll arrange it!"
Whether it was Yakumo or Karin, although they were both built by Shinji to be near omnipotent, they both lacked actual combat experience, especially experience in fighting against powerhouses of the same level.
And at their level, Shinji's 'Takamagahara' could hardly simulate perfectly anymore.
So letting them spar might better improve their understanding and control of their own abilities.
"Thank you!"
Joy appeared on Yakumo's face.
Ido was even more eager to try; even her transparent spirit body brightened up a lot for a moment.
Shinji continued: "As for Naruto's side, you don't need to worry. Since he didn't mention it now, it means he also has concerns."
Yakumo was somewhat puzzled: "Concerns?"
Shinji explained: "You are now the Fifth Hokage's disciple. Any accusation against you will affect the Fifth Hokage's reputation and prestige. Menma might not care about these, but Naruto definitely will. So as long as you don't do anything threatening the village, he won't talk nonsense."
Yakumo said: "I understand!"
Shinji waved his hand again, then disappeared on the spot with a whoosh.
Yakumo smiled and said to Ido: "Let's go, let's go back!"
Ido floated back into Yakumo's body: "Yakumo, who do you think 'E' is? Is it that idiot Sasuke? Then what about 'F'? And 'G'... they are always together, feeling like their relationship is unusual! By the way, there's also 'X' who appeared in the Demon Slayer world last time, who is she?"
"'E' should be Sasuke, this is easy to guess!" Pausing, Yakumo laughed: "Other colleagues in the organization should all be around Shinji, or even partners around us. 'F'... somewhat like Kimimaro, if it's 'G', it's mostly likely Neji!"
Knowing Shinji was 'A', the identities of other members in the organization were actually much easier to guess.
Ido nodded repeatedly, looking gossipy: "I've long felt those two were a bit strange! What about 'X' then?"
Yakumo shrugged: "Her... I always feel very familiar, but it doesn't feel quite right!"
Ido asked: "Do you have a suspect? Who is it?"
Yakumo answered: "Shion!"
Ido was stunned: "Her!? That idiot Shion doesn't even pass taijutsu, would Shinji invite her to join the organization?"
"I also think it's not quite right, but 'X' always gives me a very familiar feeling. Oh my, so hard to guess!"
On the way back, Yakumo and Ido enthusiastically discussed the identities of other colleagues. Thinking that the colleagues fighting alongside them were all companions who grew up on the same campus, they felt inexplicably relieved.
The previous sense of alienation disappeared instantly.
Anbu Headquarters.
Analysis Room.
"Solved!"
An Anbu raised his right hand high.
Tsunade, the Third Hokage, Jiraiya, Utatane Koharu, Mitokado Homura, Kakashi, and other village executives waiting aside immediately gathered around.
The Anbu carefully handed the encrypted scroll to Tsunade: "This encrypted scroll indeed uses our Anbu's encryption method, but the other party was very careful, applying a total of four layers of encryption. Without our Anbu's exclusive codebook, even if other forces obtained it, they would need at least one to two months to possibly crack it!"
Tsunade nodded: "You may withdraw!"
The Anbu bowed respectfully, then exited the room.
After the Anbu left, Tsunade went to the table, placed the encrypted scroll on the table, and slowly unrolled it.
Soon, the information on the encrypted scroll came into everyone's view.
First was a map of the Ninja World. Unlike other maps, this map had many dense small dots distributed in various countries, even quite a few within the Land of Fire.
Mitokado Homura frowned: "These are..."
Kakashi answered: "Judging from the distribution, they are likely Akatsuki organization strongholds."
Utatane Koharu looked solemn: "There are actually so many?"
If it was truly as Kakashi guessed, then the Akatsuki organization's strongholds were spread almost throughout the entire Ninja World, with the closest one to the Hidden Leaf only a few hundred kilometers away.
"Look, some of these marks are obviously thicker."
The Third Hokage pointed to a spot in the Land of Demons, a spot in the Land of Iron, and a spot in the Land of Rain while speaking.
Tsunade nodded: "These three places should be the important strongholds of the Akatsuki organization!"
With that, Tsunade didn't stop her hand movements, continuing to unroll the encrypted scroll.
The scroll continued to open, and the map part ended quickly, followed by a large paragraph of text left by Itachi. Everyone hurriedly read with full concentration, then frowned in unison.
This paragraph described the composition of the Akatsuki organization.
According to the description in the intelligence, Itachi was only in a part of the Akatsuki organization, or rather, just one of the Akatsuki organizations.
In his Akatsuki organization, there were two leaders, one in the light and one in the dark.
The one in the light was Nagato possessing the 'Eyes of the Sage', while the one hiding in the dark was a Mangekyo Uchiha wearing a mask claiming to be 'Uchiha Madara'.
Itachi emphasized that this mysterious masked man was very likely the culprit who attacked the previous Nine-Tails Jinchuriki and caused the Nine-Tails' attack back then!
Besides the two leaders, other members of the organization were Konan, Zetsu, Kakuzu, Hidan, Sasori, Deidara, Mōryō, Shinnō, Hiruko, Ranmaru, him, and his partner Juzo Biwa.
As for 'A's group of Akatsuki organization, he stated that even the leader Nagato and the mysterious masked man felt extremely fearful of them.
Tsunade sighed with emotion: "They are indeed not one group!"
"Mhm!"
Kakashi nodded slightly.
Actually, various signs before indicated that the Akatsuki organization led by 'A' and the Akatsuki organization led by Nagato were not in sync, and there had even been obvious confrontations.
Jiraiya recalled the previous battle in the Land of Rice Fields, where 'B' quietly stabbed a black rod into the back of the Fourth Hokage's 'Impure World Reincarnation body' before leaving, assisting the Fourth Hokage in breaking free from Orochimaru's control, thereby indirectly saving Naruto's life. He said: "Mhm, 'A's group of people are indeed somewhat different!"
Utatane Koharu questioned: "But how to explain 'B' and 'C' covering Hiruko and Ranmaru's escape in the Land of Rice Fields this time?"
Kakashi said: "Although there is confrontation between the two Akatsuki organizations, there should be some kind of consensus!"
Tsunade's eyes lit up: "Tailed Beasts!"
"Correct, it's Tailed Beasts!" Pausing, Kakashi continued: "'A's group of people seem to be assisting Nagato in collecting Tailed Beasts."
Jiraiya asked: "So 'A's goal is also to revive the Ten-Tails?"
Kakashi sighed: "I'm afraid so!"
If this was the case, in the subsequent decisive battle, the Ninja Village Alliance would probably have to face two Akatsuki organizations simultaneously...
