After the 'Black Hole' explosion subsided, there was nothing left but a barren land, a large crater, and a destroyed forest.
In the midst of the ruined forest, the rubble from 'Almighty Push' flew into the air, and there stood Deva Path, accompanied by Obito.
Obito's face behind the mask looked grim. Not only had they failed to kill Jiryoku, but their information was now in the hands of the Slug. The only person alive with a contract with the Slug was Tsunade, the future Hokage.
"It seems we'll have to be less active after this incident. Although we know that Jiryoku might be in Shikkotsu Forest where the Slug reside, finding it will be very difficult, and maybe we won't even succeed," said Deva Path.
"Hmm, we won't be very active until the Three Tails is revived," said Obito.
"Kisame, come with me. Your hands need to be healed, as you can't fight with just one hand," said Obito.
After that, all the Akatsuki members present there left the area.

In the Shikkotsu Forest:
"The last move he used took a huge toll on his body. Many bones are broken, and there are many internal injuries. What should we do?" said the smaller Katsuyu.
"I will use Reverse Summoning Jutsu to bring Tsunade. Maybe she can help. Until then, keep him in the mucus full of Natural energy, but don't let the levels of Natural energy increase too much. It has healing properties, so it should help," said the larger Katsuyu.
"Okay, I will do just that." After that, the smaller Katsuyu, which was obviously bigger than Jiryoku, lifted Jiryoku and carried him to the lake.
At this time, on the Hokage building, Tsunade was standing and said, "From today onwards, I will be the Hokage." Like this, she took over the Hokage position. Just at that moment, she felt Katsuyu summoning her. She got confused, but obviously, she couldn't be reverse summoned at a time like this.
After completing all the formalities, she left the top of the Hokage building and went to her new office.
"Congratulations, Tsunade, for becoming the Fifth Hokage," said Jiraiya with a smile.
"Congratulations, Tsunade-sama," said almost all the female ninja present in the room. Almost all the female ninjas admired Tsunade as their idol because, as female ninjas, they were not taken seriously.
At this time, the Hokage office was quite crowded. The team of Asuma, Kakashi, Kurenai, and Might Guy was also present.
Tsunade nodded, but her mind was elsewhere, and this was clearly evident to everyone present. Jiraiya asked, "What happened, Tsunade?"
"Katsuyu was summoning me. Maybe there's something important to discuss," said Tsunade. After saying that, she bit her thumb and used the Summoning Technique to summon a small Katsuyu.
"Lady Tsunade, finally, you answered," said Katsuyu with relief.
"What is it, Katsuyu? You seem to be in a hurry," said Tsunade.
"Yes, Jiryoku is injured very badly and needs urgent treatment. So, I was trying to reverse summon you. I am sorry if I disturbed you while you were doing something important, but it was an emergency," said Katsuyu.
"What!?" Almost everyone present in the room was shocked. They had witnessed firsthand how powerful Jiryoku really was. He was so powerful that it had taken the combined efforts of almost every ninja to make him retreat. If he hadn't been using all those powerful moves in the battle for so long, there was a high chance that they wouldn't have been able to do so.
"How can anyone injure that monster? And who has such strength to do so?" said Jiraiya.
"Master Jiryoku called them Akatsuki, and there were eight people at first. But by the end of the battle, there were nine people fighting Master Jiryoku," said Katsuyu.
As soon as the name Akatsuki was mentioned, every Jonin leader's face became solemn because, after the invasion of Itachi and Kisame, every Jonin leader had been informed about a powerful group of rebels.
"Katsuyu, tell everything from the beginning," said Tsunade with a serious face.
Katsuyu nodded and started narrating, "Master Jiryoku summoned me, but it was in my smaller form. So I asked him for my bigger form to assist him in the battle. However, he told me that I couldn't help him in the battle but gave me a task to remove all his blood traces if they fell on the ground."
"Remove blood traces? But why?" asked Tsunade.
"In the middle of the battle, he told me that there is a ninja in Akatsuki who is immortal and can't die. He also has a special ability by which if he gets the blood of any person, then whatever injuries he has, whether fatal or normal, will be transferred to the person whose blood he has. Since he is immortal, nothing will happen to him, but the opponent will die immediately," said Katsuyu.
Hearing this, every Jonin present had solemn expressions because this ability was unheard of and almost impossible to counter.
Katsuyu continued, "This was nothing compared to the most bizarre thing. There were six people with Rinnegan eyes, the same eyes as the Sage of Six Paths. The way Master Jiryoku talked to all six of them, it was as if he was addressing only one person. The way he treated them, it was like they were some kind of puppets controlled by one person. I don't know much about their abilities; only Master Jiryoku knows. There were two more people, Kisame and Itachi. Although Master Jiryoku couldn't defeat everyone in the battle, he held his own against all of them with his strength. But things changed when Master Jiryoku decided to use some kind of technique that increased his strength to a whole new level. In this form, there was no one who could stand against him. But then, another person arrived who could move through space, and every attack just passed through his body. The technique that Master Jiryoku used had a high stamina consumption, so to finish things off, he used a move he called 'Black Hole.' I can't even describe how much destruction it caused, but I know one thing for sure: this move was so destructive that it even disrupted the space in the area. I had to use Reverse Summoning 15 times just to summon Master Jiryoku back."
