In Naruto, build the strongest Hidden Mist Village.

Chapter 7: Finding White Zetsu, Madara Uchiha's backup plan!

White Zetsu possesses the ability to disguise himself, allowing him to completely transform into other people.

It can also mimic the flow of chakra, so that even the most familiar person or a sensory ninja cannot detect it.

However, all techniques have flaws, and White Zetsu's disguise technique is no exception to this rule.

White Zetsu is not very intelligent, which means that he is absolutely unable to imitate other people's inner selves to a great extent.

This is the key to finding the White Zetsu.

Just now, Yamashita Tetsuya revealed a significant weakness.

Having worked together for many years, Kaguya Naoki knew the Hidden Mist Ninja inside and out.

Most of the Hidden Mist ninjas who grew up under the Blood Mist Policy lacked comradeship, and their bloodthirsty and insane personalities often led them to kill each other.

Under these special circumstances, a special rule was established: all Hidden Mist Ninjas must strictly obey the correct orders of their commander.

This minimizes unnecessary internal friction within the team while also increasing the mission's success rate.

Yamashita Tetsuya's behavior just now was clearly abnormal.

Naoki Kaguya secretly became wary.

An abnormal Kirigakure ninja, a lone Kirigakure ANBU member.

Yamashita Tetsuya is very likely the White Zetsu, Madara Uchiha's eye.

Perhaps that's not enough; we can use other methods to confirm it.

Chakra surged, and Byakugan locked onto Yamashita Tetsuya's every expression and face.

The White Zetsu, who has no brain to begin with, will not hide its emotions when it is provoked by itself and hides behind its mask.

This gave Naoki Kaguya the opportunity to investigate.

Kaguya Naoki put aside her thoughts, raised her head slightly towards the Hidden Mist ninjas, and said coldly from her superior position.

"Tetsuya Yamashita, you dare to disregard my orders without having any ANBU comrades at all."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll sentence you to be a spy because no one can verify your identity?"

In the end, a chilling aura emanated from him, causing the surrounding Hidden Mist ninjas to tense up.

Just as Yamashita Tetsuya was about to look up and reply, a huge slap came hurtling down!

Snapped!
Naoki Kaguya's slap landed squarely on Tetsuya Yamashita's face.

Naoki Kaguya was filled with murderous intent, wanting to force Tetsuya Yamashita to reveal a weakness.

"If there is a next time, I will kill you."

Naoki Kaguya raised his head and glanced at everyone as if unintentionally, then warned them.

"No one here can stop me."

Having said that, Kaguya Naoki ignored the somewhat fearful gazes of the Kirigakure ninja behind him and walked straight toward Nohara Rin.

At the same moment, Tetsuya Yamashita's face behind the mask became ferocious and twisted, filled with murderous intent.

Most importantly, the face behind the mask began to change gradually, no longer maintaining the disguise, and started to turn white.

All of this remained unnoticed behind the mask, but it was laid bare before the glare of the scornful eyes.

Naoki Kaguya smiled slightly, confirming that his deduction was correct; it was indeed a White Zetsu.

This smugness didn't last long. When he glanced around unintentionally, his body swayed.

This seemingly impenetrable and loyal Kirigakure ninja team had a total of eight ninjas simultaneously revealing their ferocious, terrifying, and abnormal faces.

They are all White Zetsu!
They are all Madara Uchiha's eyes!
At the same time, it will also be a sharp blade.

A sharp blade to eliminate anyone who dares to interfere with Madara Uchiha's plans.

Kaguya Naoki gripped her ribs, ready to fight at any moment.

Although most of the White Zetsu are cannon fodder with relatively weak combat power, the vast majority are only at the Chunin level.

However, there are also powerful beings among the White Zetsu.

White Zetsu like Tobi can manipulate Wood Release and are powerful in combat.

Historically, Obito Uchiha used Tobi's Wood Release ability (White Zetsu) to easily annihilate this Hidden Mist team.

The formidable power of the White Zetsu should not be underestimated; we must not let our guard down.

Thankfully, I have eye rolls.

The enemy was in the open while we were in the dark; they were unaware that they had been exposed.

This will be an advantage, an advantage in battle.

These advantages, combined with my Corpse Bone Bloodline and Byakugan's insight, give me a high probability of victory.

Swallowing the saliva in his mouth, Kaguya Naoki regained his confidence.

Upon reaching Nohara Rin, he reached into his robes and tightened the scroll sealing the Three-Tails before hoisting Nohara Rin onto his shoulder.

At this moment, dissenting voices suddenly emerged.

Under the white light of his gaze, Naoki Kaguya recognized the voice.

This was one of the people who had just revealed their ferocious faces; it was another White Zetsu.

"Lord Kaguya Naoki, according to the mission, we should infuse the Three-Tails into the vessel now." Kaguya Naoki immediately rejected the idea, deeming it absolutely impossible to infuse the Three-Tails into the vessel now.

Nohara Rin has not yet been replaced by my skeletal clone.

Now that the three tails have been injected into Nohara Rin's body, she will probably only have death to wait for.

It will continue to be delayed.

Only when White Zetsu makes a move, or when they are close to Konoha, can they steal Rin Nohara's secret!

Naoki Kaguya's expression turned cold, and her voice became indifferent, giving others an impression that left no room for argument.

"Oh?"

As soon as the words were spoken, the Hidden Mist ninjas were already prepared to watch a good show.

Naoki Kaguya, a member of the Kaguya clan, is brainless and only knows violence. He'll probably slap that ninja who dares to speak up again.

To their surprise, although Kaguya Naoki's expression was cold, he actually started to reason with them.

"The situation is constantly changing over a thousand miles away. How could the Third Hokage have made the right decision just days ago?"

"The Three-Tailed Beast in the sealing scroll is currently stable, so why seal it into Nohara Rin's container first?"

"There are too many uncertainties in infusing the Tailed Beast now. You know, we are still quite a distance from Konoha."

After Kaguya Naoki said this, the many ninjas were surprised that the Kaguya clan members actually had some knowledge, but they couldn't help but nod in agreement.

To increase the success rate of the mission, it seems that it should indeed be placed in the scroll first.

Sensing the change in atmosphere, Yamashita Tetsuya, who had originally appeared as part of the sealing team, immediately spoke up.

"Lord Naoki, I want to remind you that the sealing scroll has a time limit."

Naoki Kaguya gave a cold sneer.

"The time limit for sealing the scroll is a joke."

"We originally estimated that there would be Konoha ninjas blocking our way, and it would take us eight days to travel."

"Now, it will be here in two days."

Naoki Kaguya moved closer to Tetsuya Yamashita and said coldly.

"Is time tight?"

After a long stalemate, Yamashita Tetsuya stiffly shook his head and retreated back into the group.

"Since there are no objections, let's continue on our way."

At Kaguya Naoki's command, the Hidden Mist ninjas abandoned their distractions and scattered into the jungle, leaping into the air.

Destination: Konoha Village.

. . . . . . .

In the distance, deep within a dark and secluded cave, all was utterly silent.

Click!

A sudden sound broke the silence.

Tracing back to the source, it was an old man with white hair and red eyes who smashed the stone bench next to him.

He is Uchiha Madara!

"Naoki Kaguya"

A rare hint of anger appeared in Madara Uchiha's voice.

But what I felt most was a deep chill!

Although no one knew why Kaguya Naoki, who was always obedient and loyal, had started to use his brain this time and disobeyed the orders he had personally given.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

Madara Uchiha has decided to kill him!

Of course, it wouldn't rely on ordinary White Zetsu.

Madara Uchiha had also prepared other backup plans.

He planted a ninja with a transplanted Sharingan in the Hidden Mist team.

Originally, it was just a precaution against unexpected events, but unexpectedly, there were indeed some twists and turns.

Madara Uchiha closed his eyes, and the slight tremor in his heart gradually subsided.

The Kaguya clan has always been known in the ninja world for its unparalleled taijutsu and unmatched intelligence.

However, even such a seemingly flawless family has its own unique weaknesses.

That is, one cannot resist the invasion of illusion.

Faced with illusions, Kaguya's clan is nothing more than lambs to the slaughter.

Madara Uchiha, who manipulated the Mizukage and actually ruled Kirigakure for many years, was well aware of this!
"That's it for now."

Madara Uchiha silently recited this in his mind.

Could Madara Uchiha still dance at this point? Let's have a rational discussion. This wasn't mentioned in the original work. My assumption is that he could still get up and fight. Does anyone have any other sources of information?
