Chapter 114: Obito's recruitment failed
Sometimes, Akihara Kagura is a genius.
Sometimes, Akihara Kagura is just a poor student.Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only
As a ninja who slipped through the cracks of the six years of compulsory education in the ninja world and the guidance of Jonin, Akihara Kagura mostly learned S-rank ninjutsu and forbidden techniques, rarely having the opportunity to delve into lower-level techniques.
"Where's the sealing scroll?"
The soul of Uchiha Shisui taught Akihara Kagura how to seal inanimate objects and discovered that Akihara Kagura didn't even have the scroll needed for sealing.
Fortunately
Uchiha Shisui's ninja tool bag still had a sealing scroll.
Akihara Kagura used Uchiha Shisui's sealing scroll and the sealing technique taught by Uchiha Shisui to seal Uchiha Shisui's body inside the scroll.
Naka Shrine.
Due to the disappearance of Uchiha Shisui, the first master of the Uchiha clan, the Uchiha clan's meeting to plan a coup had to be canceled temporarily. The crisis that could have plunged Konoha into a coup was suddenly dissolved due to the death of one person.
However,
The conflict between Konoha and the Uchiha clan did not end.
The conflict between the two would not disappear with the death of Uchiha Shisui, as the person who could have changed the conflict chose to commit suicide.
The Uchiha clan lost one of its strongest ninjas, Konoha lost an excellent Jonin, Shimura Danzo lost an eye and a group of excellent Root ninjas, and Akihara Kagura lost a spot for a Six Paths puppet.
In the entire coup crisis, only Uchiha Obito and Uchiha Itachi had gains.
Uchiha Obito inexplicably gained the fear and hostility of Shimura Danzo, and Uchiha Itachi successfully activated his own Mangekyou Sharingan and a Kotoamatsukami left to him by Uchiha Shisui.
Root Base.
Shimura Danzo suffered heavy losses in manpower and could only promote a group of people from the Root training camp. The old man still had lingering fears about the threat of Uchiha Obito.
Shimura Danzo did not dare to tell Sarutobi Hiruzen about his attempt to steal Uchiha Shisui's eyes, let alone the fact that Uchiha Obito took the Kotoamatsukami from him.
Shimura Danzo could only keep this secret to himself.
After being subjected to the Limited Tsukuyomi, Shimura Danzo lived another life in the illusionary world, suffering from a certain degree of dissociative identity disorder, as well as more terrifying paranoid delusions.
For instance,
Sometimes, Shimura Danzo would suddenly speak out of turn.
When Sarutobi Hiruzen summoned Shimura Danzo to discuss work, there was always a tendency for disagreements to arise between the two.
Out of nowhere, Shimura Danzo brought up: "Hiruzen, don't forget it was me who covered the rear so that you could become the Hokage"
"Danzo?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's hand holding the pipe stiffened.
Wasn't it their teacher, the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama, who chose to cover the rear during the First Great Ninja War to help them escape the danger? How could Shimura Danzo suddenly start talking nonsense?
"Cough"
Shimura Danzo quickly came to his senses.
Fortunately, having known each other for many years, Shimura Danzo had indeed undertaken some simple rearguard tasks in the real world, though they were not as dangerous.
On the other hand,
Uchiha Itachi concealed his hatred.
In Uchiha Itachi's view, Shimura Danzo had taken one of Uchiha Shisui's eyes. He dared not show any flaws in front of Shimura Danzo, worried that Shimura Danzo would suspect he had seen Uchiha Shisui and hidden the other Kotoamatsukami.
For this reason,
Uchiha Itachi continued to act as Shimura Danzo's spy.
However, one day, Shimura Danzo suddenly asked Uchiha Itachi, "Uchiha Itachi, does Uchiha Fugaku still want you to become the leader of the Root?"
Uchiha Itachi was shocked.
How did Shimura Danzo know about the conversation between him and his father?
Shimura Danzo, not yet realizing something was amiss, snorted at Uchiha Itachi, "Don't dream of such good fortune. I would rather leave the future leadership of the Root to that kid, Akihara Kagura..."
Uchiha Itachi ignored Shimura Danzo's declaration.
Because Uchiha Itachi had never considered the position of the leader of the Root, nor did he think Shimura Danzo would entrust him with such an important position.
Fortunately,
Shimura Danzo quickly came to his senses and soothed, "Monkey mentioned letting you succeed me, but I still need a little time..."
Uchiha Itachi never thought there was any hope in such matters.
Compared to him, Akihara Kagura was living more comfortably. His superior, Uchiha Obito, had come to see him, mentioning Orochimaru joining the Akatsuki organization and casually inquiring about the suicide of Uchiha Shisui, which Akihara Kagura surely knew nothing about.
Besides,
The mission to rescue Hatake Kakashi had also been approved by his superior.
Uchiha Itachi just coldly watched Uchiha Obito.
This guy betrayed Konoha and also betrayed the Uchiha clan.
However, what this guy said was also very accurate, the root of all that happened today had already been destined since the time of the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama!
However...
This does not mean that Uchiha Obito is without any guilt!
It was a small act of convenience by Uchiha Obito that further severed the relationship between Konoha and the Uchiha, constantly making the higher-ups of Konoha suspect the Uchiha.
"I will not join you."
Uchiha Itachi slowly walked down the steps of the Naka Shrine.
"It's okay."
Uchiha Obito did not care at all about Uchiha Itachi's refusal, he seemed to believe that the other would eventually join him: "Uchiha Itachi, there will eventually come a day when you find that all your efforts cannot change the tragic outcome that is destined!"
"In this distorted world, you can't protect anyone."
Uchiha Obito watched as Uchiha Itachi's figure grew smaller, and firmly said: "At that time, I will be waiting here for you."
"..."
Uchiha Itachi did not stop his steps at all.
In a corner of the Naka Shrine.
The real body of White Zetzu and White Zetzu Awei were chatting.
White Zetzu Awei witnessed Uchiha Obito's attempt to recruit Uchiha Itachi and couldn't help but comment: "Has Obito always been so naive?"
"...Yes."
The real body of White Zetzu helplessly nodded.
The white half of the face on the Pitcher Plant Monster is White Zetzu, and the black half claims to be Black Zetzu, two peculiar monsters sharing the same body.
Black Zetzu remembered Uchiha Obito's past actions, his voice also mixed with a bit of helplessness: "Obito's Dojutsu is very special, it's hard for anyone to pose a threat to him."
"Awei."
Uchiha Obito suddenly mentioned Awei's name, and loudly instructed: "Go tell that kid Kagura, to help me provoke a fight between the Uchiha and Konoha, to force Uchiha Itachi into a corner, until he joins us!
When Uchiha Itachi realizes that all his efforts are in vain, he will understand how tragic his fate really is!"
"Yes."
White Zetzu Awei quickly burrowed into the ground.
"Obito."
"We can't stay here for long."
The real body of White Zetzu looked at Uchiha Obito, who planned to hide in the Naka Shrine, and took the initiative to remind him, "Shimura Danzo has always been monitoring the Uchiha. Although my perception ability did not detect Danzo's chakra, I feel that he might have discovered us..."
"Uchiha Itachi is an excellent operative."
Black Zetzu actually agreed with Uchiha Obito's idea, continuing, "Now Uchiha Itachi has activated the Mangeky Sharingan, and he also has a younger brother, Uchiha Sasuke. If Uchiha Sasuke could also activate the Mangeky Sharingan in the future..."
"Yes, he has a younger brother."
Uchiha Obito's eyes narrowed slightly, recalling the secret of the Uchiha clan that Uchiha Madara once mentioned to him, "This means, Uchiha Itachi's Mangeky Sharingan still has the potential to become even more powerful..."
"We can't continue to stay here, either."
White Zetzu continued to remind, "Even if Shimura Danzo hasn't found us, if Uchiha Itachi reports to Konoha about Obito hiding in the Naka Shrine..."
"He won't report it."
Uchiha Obito sneered, very confident in his judgment, "Because he knows, reporting to the higher-ups of Konoha at this time will only attract their suspicion, worrying that I am colluding with the Uchiha clan against the Konoha higher-ups..."
"What's more interesting is..."
"Shimura Danzo discovered me, but Uchiha Itachi didn't report this information to him. Isn't it more advantageous for us, who want to provoke a conflict between Konoha and the Uchiha?"
"Are we going to stay here then?"
"We have to recruit operatives anyway..."
Uchiha Obito glanced at Zetzu and continued, "Is there anyone more suitable to recruit than Uchiha Itachi?"
"Your attitude towards Kagura today was somewhat unfriendly."
Black Zetzu pointed out the mistake Uchiha Obito made today, "That child's power is also very strong, an excellent operative for us. Even if Nagato's body has problems in the future, that child could also become a vessel for the Rinnegan."
"I don't like that kid..."
In fact, Uchiha Obito harbored some dislike for Akihara Kagura, because he felt that he was supposed to be the superior, yet it seemed like he was always being suppressed by his subordinate, Akihara /Bleam
