Chapter 579 - Akatsuki’s Leader! A Man Named Uehara Naraku!
Marineford.
Three figures landed on the ground.
They were three different people, but they said the same thing, “Sasuke, I thought you would change your opinion of me a little when you grew up. I didn’t expect you to still be the same…”
“…”
Sasuke’s eyes changed, and he clenched his Kusanagi Sword even tighter, “Bastard… are you trying to threaten me with Nii-san’s soul again?”
The three people who suddenly appeared now are the Uchiha trio, Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Madara, and Uchiha Obito controlled by Uehara!
Sasuke had already guessed it!
However…
Today, Sasuke finally decided to choose a showdown!
“I already know it very clearly. No matter what I do, you will never let go of Nii-san’s soul!”
Indeed.
Itachi’s existence was a shackle to Sasuke and Sasuke’s existence was also a shackle to Itachi.
If this goes on…
One day, one of them will collapse!
Sasuke gritted his teeth. His gaze swept past the three people in front of him and landed on the tangerine-filled warship in Marineford’s port. His voice gradually turned cold, “Uehara Naraku, you bastard. Even now, do you still want to hide behind the scenes!”
“Uchiha Sasuke!”
Kabuto’s voice was mixed with a trace of anger. The Yamata-no-Orochi suddenly disappeared and his figure appeared in front of everyone.
At this moment, Kabuto’s face was filled with unprecedented coldness!
“Uchiha Sasuke…”
Colors gradually appeared in Kabuto’s surrounding eyes, and his voice suddenly became sinister and terrifying, “Do you know what you are saying?”
Kabuto, who was in Sage mode, was emitting a different aura. He had eight thick snake tails on his back, which made him look more terrifying!
This aura was indeed enough to frighten ordinary people…
However, almost everyone present was not ordinary. Everyone was a top figure in the sea. The Haki on their body could stop Kabuto’s imposing aura just by releasing a little bit!
“I know very well.”
Sasuke did not look at Kabuto. A drop of cold sweat slowly appeared on his forehead as he continued to stare at the man on the tangerine-filled warship in the distance, “Uehara Naraku… I have put in a thousand, a hundred times more effort than in the past… Now, I want to try… to see your limit!”
The moment he said this…
Sasuke knew very well that he had no way back!
Coming to this sea, Sasuke broke through his shackles. He was working hard to train the power of this world and constantly becoming stronger!
Especially after fighting with Madara…
Sasuke slowly realized that he might abandon his past impression and challenge Uehara, who had once made him see what the term invisible was…
Perhaps he was stronger now!
The Haoshoku Haki(Conqueror’s Haki) in Sasuke’s body erupted with all of its strength. This Haki rushed straight toward the tangerine-filled warship. This also allowed the people present to finally determine the name that Sasuke spoke of…
It was that Uehara Naraku.
However, when everyone present heard Uehara’s name, they faintly felt that their ears had heard wrongly. No matter how they looked at it, this name didn’t seem quite right…
Sengoku’s figure instantly transformed from his giant golden great Buddha form to his original body. His eyes couldn’t help but tremble, “Hey, Sasuke, you’re talking about the wrong person! How can Uehara be the leader of Akatsuki?”
“Uehara…”
Garp’s face was full of confusion.
This Uehara Naraku should not be the person they know, right?
After all, Uehara’s performance in the marine has not been very good all the time and he often has bad luck. It feels like he was not fit to become a marine…
This person…
It seems not very dangerous!
“No, Sasuke kid is right!”
Garp suddenly remembered a picture he had seen before. It was Uehara’s wanted poster while he was squinting and smiling!
At that time…
Garp immediately felt a tinge of malice!
But at that time, Garp and Sengoku quarreled and didn’t continue to pursue the matter. After all, in Garp’s eyes, dangerous people will jump out sooner or later!
As a result…
Uehara not only didn’t reveal any danger but was slowly changed into a qualified marine. It was simply amazing.
Now…
The danger has finally appeared!
Sengoku’s thoughts gradually faded away. His gaze also fell on the tangerine-filled warship, and his heart sank bit by bit…
If that was the case…
Everything they had done had fallen into Uehara’s eyes?
No matter if it was to contact Whitebeard Pirates or to contact the Revolutionary Army, Uehara had seen all of this and even took the initiative to help…
Moreover, Sengoku had never felt that Uehara was powerful…
However, a powerhouse like Sasuke would not lie about his challenge to Uehara. This guy… actually hid so deeply?
No…
This was not strange at all!
Because no one had ever thought that Kabuto also had the power to stand at the top, but Kabuto had never revealed it…
Then, Uehara Naraku, as the leader of Akatsuki Organization…
It doesn’t seem to be surprising at all for him to hide his strength!
Rayleigh’s expression also became a bit strange. As Sasuke exposed Uehara’s true face, Rayleigh vaguely remembered that day.
That morning, Rayleigh just played with Uehara.
That afternoon, an Admiral suddenly took away Shakky…
Shanks on the execution platform also revealed a strange expression. The Uehara Naraku that Sasuke mentioned was actually the Uehara Naraku who was captured by his Red Hair Pirates. This was too strange!
No matter how you think about it…
That Vice Admiral doesn’t look like Akatsuki’s Leader!
Luffy knelt beside Ace and whispered, “Hey, Ace, why is your companion challenging Uehara…”
“Because he is the person that Sasuke is most afraid of!”
Ace’s expression changed slightly and he couldn’t help but whisper, “Akatsuki’s Leader… Ever since I met Sasuke, he never dared to mention that person’s name. I occasionally speculated… but I didn’t expect that the name Sasuke said would turn out to be him…”
“Hidden, lurking, undercover, spy.”
Sabo knelt on the other side of Ace and said with an ugly expression, “These are all the tricks of the CP department and Akatsuki… But I didn’t think about it because I was able to restore my memory, all relying on the fact that Mr. Uehara happened to meet us when he helped rescue Dadan…”
No matter what…
It was impossible to imagine!
Uehara was clearly a good person!
If not for Uehara, Sabo wouldn’t recover the memories he had lost, and he wouldn’t have had the chance to reunite with Luffy and Ace…
In particular, Monkey D. Dragon had always wanted to recruit Uehara to join their Revolutionary Army and become a spy for their Revolutionary Army in the marine.
The result was unexpected…
That guy was the king of undercover agents!
Sabo still had a look of disbelief on his face. Then a helpless smile slowly appeared on his face, “This is really… unexpected…”
After all…
Uehara’s way of doing things was too friendly!
Only Whitebeard, who had always believed in Sasuke, followed Sasuke’s gaze and looked at the tangerine-filled warship in the distant port…
There…
Standing there was a young man who had been drinking fruit juice all along.
No matter what kind of war happened in the outside world, he never left the tangerine-filled warship. The marines, pirates, and the Revolutionary Army never trouble him.
This was exactly the Uehara Naraku mentioned.
After hearing Sasuke’s words, Uehara still held his cup in his hand and slowly sucked the juice in the cup, as if everything outside had nothing to do with him.
Outside was clearly a war that could decide the world…
Uehara’s calmness was really abnormal here!
The eyes of the top powerhouse present all fell on Uehara. He still slowly drank his juice until he completely drank all the content. He then calmly placed the cup in his hand on the railing of the warship.
Uehara’s body strangely floated in the air. His gaze looked down at Sasuke who was challenging him, and his face gradually became calm like an ancient well.
At this moment…
The aura on Uehara’s body changed drastically!
His body seemed to become like an abyss!
Everyone clearly felt that their Kenbunshoku Haki(Observation Haki)’s probing or Haoshoku Haki(Conqueror’s Haki) had disappeared in an instant after touching Uehara’s body!
Uehara clearly looked like an ordinary human…
But he was like a black hole that could absorb everything!
At this moment…
No matter who it was, they had to believe it…
This strange youth was definitely the leader of the Akatsuki Organization!
As the leader of the most mysterious organization in this era. It was not surprising no matter how strange his power was!
This person…
He was the one who destroyed the World Government!
This person…
He was the most powerful leader who captured the two Yonko(Four Emperors) Pirate Groups!
This person…
He was the mastermind who controls everyone’s entry into the war with one hand!
This person…
He was the man who completely turned the world upside down!
The top powerhouses on the battlefield slowly stopped their battle. Everyone raised their heads and looked at Uehara in the air with different expressions on their faces.
They had never seen Uehara in such a state before…
Apart from Kisame, Kakuzu, and the other core members of Akatsuki Organization who had smiles on their faces, everyone else had a solemn expression on their faces!
Because they knew…
This war was finally about to reach its climax!
Uehara’s gaze fell on Sasuke. His eyes were somewhat clear, and there seemed to be nothing out of the ordinary…
However, when Uehara’s gaze landed on Sasuke, it made Sasuke feel his heart tighten!
Uehara stared at Sasuke and said expressionlessly, “Everything was within my expectations. Sasuke, you still chose to join them…”
