Naruto World, Akatsuki Organization.
Compared to the discussion among the few in Konoha Village, those in the Akatsuki Organization showed very strange gazes.
"Wow, this is truly... wonderful!"
Deidara recalled the scene just now and thought it was brilliant. Although the beginning was a bit boring, that final scene...
...finally let Deidara see what a 'Divine Plot Twist' meant.
"Too unsightly," Sasori said calmly. "If she hadn't underestimated her enemy, the final result probably wouldn't have been like this."
"Friendship made her make a faulty judgment," Kakuzu said indifferently as he looked at the darkening screen. "If she had gone all out from the start and left a trump card to protect herself like she did in her first battle against the Rose Witch, it wouldn't have ended like this."
"Yeah, yeah," Hidan rarely agreed with Kakuzu's words.
Everyone present was a powerhouse. After all, to become an S-rank rogue Ninja, it was impossible not to have some skill.
Their eyes were also very sharp. Basically, the moment her head was bitten off, they instantly understood why Mami Tomoe had lost.
It wasn't that she was too weak; quite the opposite, if she hadn't been killed instantly...
...then judging by the experience of the Akatsuki members, that being named Mami Tomoe could definitely have counter-killed that whatever Sweets Witch.
"She was too overconfident."
Konan also sighed, while secretly becoming alert. She would have to be careful in her own battles in the future.
Ever since watching the video of Uchiha Madara fighting Might Guy, Konan had begun preparing power to deal with the current 'Madara'.
Although Nagato recently told her that he had tentatively cooperated with 'Madara'.
But Nagato also said that this 'Madara' might have other schemes, so cooperating with him was just for show.
Currently, Nagato was wary of 'Madara's' power, while also hoping 'Madara' would help the Akatsuki Organization complete the plan to capture the Tailed Beasts.
If they were to fall out with 'Madara' at this time, the Akatsuki Organization would lose the White Zetsu who collected information.
Moreover, he himself might start an internal conflict with 'Madara'.
Nagato, who possessed the Rinnegan, was confident he wouldn't lose to a 'Madara' who hadn't yet recovered his strength, but he was also uncertain in his heart, so he could only drag it out like this.
"Yes, she was confident she could defeat the enemy, but she lacked a piece of 'intel'."
Uchiha Itachi spoke. He slowly opened his Sharingan as if he had just woken up, but he had watched the video from beginning to end.
He had just closed his eyes because keeping his Sharingan active made his eyes a bit sore, so he squinted for a while. After hearing everyone's comments, he was ready to express his opinion.
"That black-haired woman gave her intel that this Witch was unusual," Itachi said calmly as he looked at everyone. "But Mami Tomoe didn't listen. The two didn't seem to have any deep hatred."
"It was just a bit of a grudge; that black-haired woman came to warn her out of kindness."
"However, because of a momentary lapse in judgment, she missed this intel, leading to her death."
Having said this, Itachi closed his mouth again. He believed everyone had already noticed this detail; he was just giving a slight reminder.
"The consequence of being too confident in one's own strength." After Itachi finished speaking, Deidara naturally stepped up to argue. He said with a smile, "After all, battles are decided by life and death. If you look down on others too much, you really will die."
As Deidara said this, his eyes were fixed on Itachi.
Obviously, his meaning was clear. Deidara admitted he lost the last battle.
But after a period of training, Deidara felt he was no longer weak and was confident he could defeat Itachi.
"The next video seems to have started." Sasori also knew about the grudge between Deidara and Itachi, so he spoke up decisively to divert their attention.
While they were watching the screen intently, a line of text appeared on it.
NO. 9, The Birth of the Ultimate Life Form.
"What?!!" Deidara showed a quite strange expression. Ultimate Life Form? This seemed to be that Muzan's title in the comment section.
That person called himself the Ultimate Life Form and argued with that Gilgamesh.
But he heard that the other party seemed to have suffered a setback at the hands of the Demon Slayer Corps recently, so he hadn't appeared for a while.
Could it be that the protagonist this time is her? This is too ridiculous, isn't it???
Just as Deidara was thinking that...
Demon Slayer World, inside the Infinity Castle.
Kibutsuji Muzan, wearing a kimono, had a very ugly expression because the Demon Slayer Corps had slapped her hard this time.
Even with almost all her Upper Ranks deployed, they were actually driven back by the enemy's Hashira, and that fellow named Tanjiro had even learned a brand-new breathing style.
Although that strike of his didn't harm Kokushibo, the flame ripples surrounding the blade gave Kokushibo the feeling of being soaked in a pool of sulfuric acid.
But it was that one strike that made Kokushibo retreat, forcing him to withdraw. If he hadn't retreated quickly, he probably would have been left behind that night.
"Next time, Doma must go. He can't fight with a playful mindset. He must leave that Tanjiro half-dead first so he can't use that so-called breathing."
Kibutsuji Muzan's face was very grim. She truly hadn't expected a so-called Ripple Breathing to have such terrifying destructive power.
Although she had more or less felt the terror of that thing called Ripple Breathing through the video earlier...
...she truly hadn't expected Tanjiro to be so insidious as to use both Sun Breathing and Ripple Breathing to attack Kokushibo.
Because Kokushibo didn't want to kill him and also wanted to see what kind of power was contained in that attack that had slain a Lower Rank.
So he gave Tanjiro a chance to get close, but Kokushibo never expected he would be injured by a fellow who wasn't even a Hashira.
"Eh? The Birth of the Ultimate Life Form?"
At this time, Kibutsuji Muzan also saw the video. Although she had been watching the video just now, she didn't have much interest in Mami Tomoe losing her head.
Because human death was a very normal thing in her eyes.
Kibutsuji Muzan, who considered herself a natural disaster, didn't think human death was any kind of divine plot twist.
However, this title made Kibutsuji Muzan interested.
"Could it be?" Kibutsuji Muzan showed a smile; she looked stunningly beautiful when she smiled.
Because this inventory video has knowledge of the future, could it be that this video is saying her future is destined to become a perfect Ultimate Life Form?
This is truly good news!
Thinking of this, Kibutsuji Muzan began to focus on watching the video; she was interested.
