The morning after Giyuu and Anjuro left Konoha, Uchiha Shisui also set out for the Land of Earth to carry out a top-secret mission related to the Third Tsuchikage Onoki.
Before the sky light illuminated the entire land, Zetsu and Uchiha Obito, the two masterminds who could travel through the terrain at will, sprang out from the Hokage Rock with a gloomy face at the same time, and stood above Senju Hashirama.
, overlooking this huge village from a high position.
Last night, the two of them had been collecting information in this village all night.
"How could a mere whirlpool relic make things so difficult for you? Only after he leaves will he dare to come to this village?"
Under the mask, Obito raised the corners of his mouth maliciously.
"You once boasted about such a seaport, saying that it was absolutely impossible for anyone to discover it.
"But every one of the clones you sent to Konoha to collect intelligence is missing. What happened in Konoha in the past few years actually depends on that rat in the dark corner to inform us. It seems that even Uchiha Madara
Even if you have a strong will, there will be some omissions.”
Obito's dialect is thorny and full of sarcasm.
The heretic demons that can create White Zetsu are now at Nagato's place. There are only a few reconnaissance White Zetsu left by Madara. They are all sent out to monitor the Kage or Jinchuuriki of various countries. Every missing one is a loss to him.
Huge loss.
Since the birth of Purgatory Anjuro, the number of White Zetsus has dropped sharply, making it difficult to send them to take risks in this village.
Therefore, Uchiha Obito's surveillance of the Third Hokage was interrupted for three years, and a large amount of usable information was lost.
The relationship between Konoha and Uchiha did not continue to deteriorate as he imagined, but gradually became harmonious, which was also the result of the lack of intelligence.
Now if Obito wants to use any means to stir up the Uchiha rebellion, it will be very troublesome to destroy this clan and weaken Konoha's strength at the same time.
Therefore, Obito put all the blame on Zetsu, the intelligence chief of the Akatsuki organization.
"Even a slight change in a ninja's genes can have an unexpected impact on the ninjutsu he releases. This is beyond anyone's control."
The one who answered was Hei Jue with a sinister voice.
He was not angry because of Obito's accusation.
"The normal Kagura mind cannot detect me, otherwise Uzumaki Kushina would have noticed it long ago.
"Although I don't know how this Purgatory Anjuro did it, but since he is no longer in Konoha, we just need to deal with him."
Speaking of this, he tilted his head thoughtfully.
"Or do you have any plans for him?"
"Didn't Nagato ask Konan to recruit him?"
Obito pondered for a while and then said contemptuously: "This is the first person they proposed to win over into Akatsuki. Let's not act rashly.
"Judging from the information Danzo gave us, this guy named Purgatory Anjuro is full of naive ideas and will probably reject them. When he meets Nagato, he will have mastered the information about Amegakure. Nagato
How can the door allow him to leave safely? Even if he is not killed, he will be detained until he grows up as a substitute for one of the six paths."
"It's possible he did."
Black Jue said approvingly.
Nagato was very picky about Pain's choice of six paths.
Only those who make him look at him differently are qualified to become puppets.
"That's it. If Nagato wants to let him go, we can just interfere."
Immediately, Hei Jue looked in the direction of the Kingdom of Earth, his voice filled with chilling viciousness.
"Next, let's focus on getting rid of Shunshen Shisui first.
"It may be troublesome to destroy Uchiha now. But at least Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Fugaku must die."
As a result, with every additional pair of Mangekyō Sharingan in the world, there will be one more variable in collecting tailed beasts in the future.
Secondly, once Nagato meets them and is unfortunately defeated and suffers a blow, he will question his own strength and identity as the reincarnation of the Six Paths Sage.
So Black Zetsu and Obito must deal with these two people.
Obito: "Is everything ready in Earth Kingdom?"
Jueyin smiled and replied: "Ah, Onoki has hired Akatsuki. He also spent a lot of money to buy a piece of information about Uchiha Shisui.
"In that intelligence, I already stated, 'If Uchiha Shisui is allowed to grow, he will be more threatening than Uchiha Madara'. We are serious third-party mercenaries, and Onoki will not doubt that this is
I intentionally exaggerated."
"What's the use of raising Uchiha Shisui like this?"
Obito frowned under the mask.
He still felt that it was a bit too cautious to never let him deal with Shisui himself.
"It may not be useful to others, but it is perfect for the Third Tsuchikage.
"He is afraid of spots, just like frogs are afraid of snakes, and he will never let another spot appear in this world."
Jue said confidently: "Besides, the mission we asked Danzo to assign to Uchiha Shisui was originally aimed at Ohnoki. Back then, Ohnoki had tens of thousands of people besieging the Third Raikage, and it took three days and three nights to kill him.
He won't let Uchiha Shisui off easily this time. Although we still don't know what Uchiha Shisui's Kaleidoscope Child Technique is, he can't use these eyes for free like you. What he has to face
...It will be a situation of ten deaths and no life!"
Zetsu had already sentenced Shisui to death.
"I'm really looking forward to it. What kind of eyes are these. Although I can't see this unintentional world clearly, I can at least contribute to burying it."
When Obito said this, there was no regret at all.
"You called me, is there anything you need me to do in this plan?"
"That's right. It's a crucial step."
Jue revealed his plan.
"You go and control the defection of the four-tailed Jinchuuriki, making Onoki think it was Uchiha Shisui's doing, and strengthen your determination to kill him."
"What about Kirigakure?" Obito's voice suddenly became cold and hard, and the anger hidden deep in the depths was ready to be unleashed.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo Reading recently to catch up on books, change sources, and read aloud with many sounds, and it can be used on both Android and Apple.]
With Hashirama's cells, his child power can be continuously restored, but the total amount is limited. Obito cannot control two pairs of tailed beasts and jinchūriki at the same time. To control a new tailed beast, you must give up the other.
Only.
And because of Lin's incident, Obito's revenge against Kirigakure is far from over, and he doesn't want to let them go like this.
"The five major kingdoms still need to maintain a certain balance for Akatsuki to play its role. The current strength of the Water Country is less than half of what it was before you controlled the Fourth Mizukage, and your revenge is almost over. I will send Bai Zetsu to tell Gansaki
Guijiao, let him arrange for Shi Cang to kill Loquat Juuzang, and then let Shi Cang and the Three-Tails die together in the hands of Orochimaru to give Kirigakure some breathing space."
Jue taught her like a parent: "This is the best arrangement. Now that you are bearing Madara's name, don't act out of emotion."
"I understand without you having to tell me."
A vortex emerged from the right eye of Obito's mask, absorbing himself into it and disappearing without a trace.
Obviously in his heart, his revenge against Kirigakure was far from enough to express the anger and hatred in his heart.
But in order to complete the Eye of the Moon project, he had to put his personal tendencies aside.
"He's still the same kid as before, he hasn't grown up at all."
Bai Jue on the left said something with a smile, not sure if it was a compliment or a sarcasm.
"It's just that there is no progress."
After Hei Jue said these words, he sank into the shadow rock without leaving any trace.
The next moment, the morning sun rose over the distant mountain peaks, dyeing the place where they were just a bright orange.
That night.
After nearly thirty hours of non-stop driving, Giyuu took the squirrel-sized Kyuubi through most of the Fire Country and the entire Yu Country, and finally arrived at the ninja's holiday paradise - Yu Ninja Village.
Yunin Village is a tourist town close to the coast and rich in geothermal and hot spring resources.
Compared with Konoha, not only is its location not at all hidden, but even the surrounding walls of the village are only three or four meters high.
Giyuu stood on the roof and looked at the crowded streets below. He felt that this place did not look like a Ninja Village, but more like Asakusa Street in Tokyo during the New Year.
At this time, a scent that he had never smelled before entered the nose of the nine tails on top of Yiyong's head.
After not speaking for two days and one night, it no longer pretended to be dead and raised its head lightly.
It looked down along the scent. There happened to be a shop selling grilled octopus on the side of the street, and its eyes suddenly brightened several degrees.
But on the contrary, Yiyong didn't feel anything at all and immediately walked towards the pier on the seaside.
"Hey!" Kyuubi grabbed a bunch of Giyuu's hair with each front paw, like grabbing the control stick of a fighter jet, and pulled hard.
For the past thirty hours, Kyuubi has been waiting for this kid to take the initiative to talk to him. But it didn't expect that Giyuu was obviously awake, but even quieter than when Uzumaki Naruto was asleep, making him bored and locked in a cage.
There isn't much difference there either.
"What's up?"
The stinging pain on the top of his head made Yiyong stop and his eyes drift upward, "Did you find anything?"
"I just followed you here for sightseeing, and I didn't say I wanted to help you."
Kyuubi's pointed head drooped from Yiyong's forehead, "What are you planning to do now?"
Giyong said matter-of-factly: "Go to the dock to find a boat, and then go to the Kingdom of Water."
The relationship between the Fire Country and the Water Country is quite bad, which can be seen from the fact that they never send anyone to take the Chunin Exam. The Water Country is obviously due east of the Fire Country, but the coast of the Fire Country
, but there are no large ships that can cross the strait. Only in Yunin, a city with developed commerce, can we find the ships in the past.
Jiuwei reluctantly looked at the grilled octopus shop that Giyu passed by: "You have been traveling for thirty hours, don't you want to rest?"
"It's not too late to get on the boat and rest."
Giyu's idea is very simple. Whether he is rescuing people or capturing Orochimaru, the sooner the better.
If he didn't have as much chakra as Anjurou, he would even want to directly control the water flow all the way across the sea.
Seeing that Giyuu continued to fly non-stop on the roof, Kyuubi quickly said: "But since we passed by, why don't we have something to eat? In the words of you humans, we are here!"
“We’ll eat before we get on the boat!”
Giyuu immediately rejected Kyuubi without any intention of discussing it.
When Kyuubi heard this, he suddenly became angry and jumped off Giyuu's head and landed on the roof.
Yiyong was puzzled and could only look at Kyuubi in confusion: "What's wrong?"
She ended up lying on all fours and stared at him fiercely: "You little Uchiha brat, I didn't agree to come with you just for the sake of trouble! You ran so bumpyly that I couldn't even sleep. It's hard now."
When you get to a busy place, if you don’t take a rest, I will take a rest too! A good meal and a hot spring bath, that’s the life I want!”
"But aren't you a clone?"
"But I just pointed at this clone and came out to enjoy it!"
Kyuubi is telling the truth. Anjuro has its chakra in his body. Kyuubi can only see the outside world through chakra. But now, this one is indeed a clone that can eat and drink. I think
The feeling of not going to jail depends entirely on it.
"My true body is still sealed in that brat's body, and the connection between chakras can still be maintained. Once I get out of the sea, no matter what I do, my true body won't be able to feel it! Then didn't I come here in vain?
!”
Yiyong's eyebrows lowered.
[It seems that if you don’t satisfy it, it won’t leave.]
If it weren't for the possibility that he might encounter Kirigakure's Jinchūriki and tailed beasts on this trip, requiring Kyuubi to communicate with them, Giyuu would regret bringing Kyuubi over.
When he and Kyuubi were confronting each other and getting a little tangled, three ninjas wearing forehead protectors from Yunin Village jumped up from below, forming a faint triangle and surrounding Giyuu.
They wear loose robes and wear casual clogs. Their eyes look shrewd, but their whole bodies exude a sense of laziness. They look more like guests in a bathhouse than ninjas.
"This tourist."
Seeing that Giyu was actually a child, the leader Yu Nin was a little surprised, but he still said seriously: "In Yu Nin Village, it is illegal to walk on the roof. This is a village that advocates peace. Ninjas from all over the world come here.
It’s to enjoy a relaxing vacation. If someone passes by on the roof, it will inevitably make the guests feel uneasy.”
Kyuubi grinned, suddenly wanting to laugh.
Just when Yiyong thought that things might be very troublesome and thought about whether to apologize or not, he saw the ninja smiling strangely again.
"However, this is your first time as a guest and you are young, so we can handle this matter as appropriate.
"If you can't find the way, you can ask the ninjas in our village for a fee, five hundred taels at a time; if it's two thousand taels, we can take you there. Of course, it's best..."
As he spoke, he took out a roll of sheepskin knotted with a ribbon from his arms.
"Just spend five thousand taels to buy a tourist map!"
The leader Yu Nin exchanged glances with the two followers, and then said excitedly: "This is a tourist map of Yu Nin Village that I made specially for new guests. It has every shop, restaurant, hotel and every place marked on it.
The location of the hot springs, as well as reviews and ratings from guests. With this map, you can avoid wasting money and enjoy the most fulfilling vacation!”
"..."
Yiyong was a little overwhelmed by the speed at which these people changed their faces.
One second, he thought these people were going to arrest him and send him to a place similar to the Konoha Guard. But the next second, they were selling maps, and the value of a map was equivalent to a D-class commission.
【so expensive.】
However, seeing how friendly they were, Giyuu wanted to refuse them directly and continue on their way with Kyuubi.
What I didn't expect was that Kyuubi suddenly jumped on Yiyong's shoulder and said mischievously: "Hey! Don't you understand yet? They said you broke the law before, and they said it was dealt with according to the circumstances, which means you spent it.
The more money you have, the lighter the treatment will be on you! If you buy a map, nothing will happen!"
After saying that, it proudly raised its head and glanced around the three of them: "How about it, what I said is good!"
Anyway, it really wants this map.
The two young Tang Ninjas were inevitably a little embarrassed when they saw that they had been exposed by a fox in front of them, but the leader of the Tang Ninjas still had a smile on his face and did not show any signs of being affected.
"This guest, your talking fox companion is really smart."
When Yiyong heard this, he felt more disgusted than eating a fly.
If there is such a rule, why not remind him when he enters the village?
"Then take one." He reluctantly took out the money.
After accepting that he was a real Uchiha, Yiyong never failed to receive lucky money in the past few years, with a total of hundreds of thousands on him.
If he didn't buy the map, he would have to knock these people unconscious in order to avoid being imprisoned, which was obviously inappropriate.
"Okay! Thank you for your patronage!"
The soup ninja immediately acted like a hawker and asked while collecting the money: "Seeing that you are in such a hurry, where are you going?"
Even the title became "you".
"I'm looking for a boat to go to sea."
"Oh?!" Tang Ren's eyes lit up again.
"Then you are too late! An hour ago, the last ship out to sea today left the port at sunset. If you want to go out to sea again, you can only wait until there is a ship tomorrow morning!"
Kyuubi's smile almost reached his ears, while Giyuu was obviously a little surprised.
【It's obviously a bad thing, why is he smiling so happily?】
"Since you can't leave until tomorrow, it's best to find a hotel to stay in the village today."
The Yunin pointed at the map, "Here are all the hotels in the village. Do you want to stay in one with an independent hot spring, or in an ordinary one--"
Before Giyuu could speak, Kyuubi immediately spoke first: "I want to live in a place with an independent hot spring! It's best to be closer to this street!"
[It seems that today, I can eat a grilled octopus no matter what!]
[However, it’s not a bad idea to take a bath in a hot spring first! 】
Tang Ren clapped his hands enthusiastically, pointed to a store on the map and said, "Then this store is just right for you! I'll take you there now. Since it's your first time here, I don't have to accept it.
The cost of leading the way.”
Yiyong took a closer look and saw that this store had a perfect score of 10.
He sighed silently.
【Since I can’t leave today, let’s fulfill this fox’s wish.】
Yiyong only hopes that tomorrow's search for the ship heading to the Kingdom of Water will be a little smoother.
It just so happens that tonight I can make up for the moon breathing practice that I missed yesterday.
One person and one fox followed Tang Ninja along the crowded streets. They passed not only casinos and taverns along the way, but they also had to stop and wait for a parade of courtesans to pass by. In short, this must be someone who scorned the Three Rings of Ninja.
The village is it.
"This is it!"
Tang Ren led the two of them to the door of a remote shop and immediately shouted: "Dad, there is a customer coming!"
Yiyong and Hu Hu looked at each other and understood why Tang Ren refused to accept the toll.
at the same time.
A team of twelve people was quietly landing on the beach outside Yunin Village.
They have different shapes and looks, but each of them has a fierce cold light in their eyes.
"Remember Mizukage-sama's instructions! As long as you catch that brat, you can coerce Oniteng Mangetsu to hand over the psychic scroll of the seven ninja swords, and let him take the initiative to lead the neck and be killed! Even if Yu Ninja Village turns into a mountain of corpses today,
