Becoming a Ninja from Naruto

Chapter 205 Sneak attack!

"We need to go faster."

"The battle between Akatsuki and Obito Uchiha has begun. We must get there before their battle ends and absolutely cannot let the situation get any worse."

Ninja Alliance Headquarters.

Nara Shikaku, serving as a staff officer in the Allied Forces, uses his comrade-in-arms Yamanaka Inoichi's Mind Transfer Technique to continuously relay his orders to various units.

"why?"

"Wouldn't it be better if we let them both suffer heavy losses before we go over?"

Many ninjas naturally harbored this idea, believing that this would result in fewer casualties and make it easier to win the war.

"You can't think like that..."

Nara Shikaku had no choice but to explain the gravity of the situation to everyone, hoping they would understand the true nature of this war: "For them, the battle they are fighting is to seize the Ten-Tails. The Ten-Tails is a huge resource in war, and whichever side succeeds will be an extremely dangerous enemy to us..."

certainly…

Nara Shikaku had some things he didn't say.

According to his judgment, the Ten-Tails would be in even greater danger if it fell into the hands of Emiya Shihara and the Akatsuki organization led by Uchiha Madara, truly giving them a significant advantage.

If possible, Nara Shikaku hoped that in this war, the Allied Shinobi Forces and Uchiha Obito would reach a peculiar understanding, and that both sides would work together to eliminate the two enormous threats, Emiya Shikahara and Uchiha Madara…

Thus…

The Allied Shinobi Forces will have an easier time.

After all, the Allied Shinobi Forces had a ninja, Kakashi Hatake, who was perfectly suited to deal with Obito Uchiha. Shikaku Nara already knew a lot about Kamui, and he was able to quickly use Kakashi Hatake to devise many battle plans to deal with Obito Uchiha.

"The General Staff..."

"The advance troops have arrived at the outer perimeter of the battlefield..."

Above a strange, ink-wash-like flying bird.

A Konoha ANBU ninja named Sai had already arrived with a large group of people and reported on what they had seen on the battlefield.

"We've...seen the Ten-Tails."

The Konoha ANBU member named Sai, whose face was already pale, looked even paler at this moment. However, he murmured the situation on the battlefield as if he had no emotion.

"What about other situations?"

Nara Shikaku immediately pressed for details about the situation, bringing up his three most pressing enemies: "Uchiha Madara, Emiya Shinohara, and Uchiha Obito, have you seen them? Are they fighting? What's the current state of the battle?"

"The situation... is a bit strange."

Kankuro, Gaara's older brother, who was sitting next to Sai, quickly added, "It seems there's a problem on both sides... The situation on the battlefield is at a stalemate, and they don't seem to be making any moves right now."

"but…"

"From an environmental perspective..."

Kankuro glanced at the terrifying crater, the size of a town, that had appeared on the ground, and stated the basis for his guess: "They must have just been in a fierce battle, possibly involving a massive explosion, though the exact cause is unknown..."

"This matches our guess."

Nara Shikaku, at the Allied Shinobi Forces headquarters, nodded in agreement: "The intelligence and perception unit at headquarters also received an unusually intense chakra fluctuation. According to information from other intelligence gatherers, a large explosion must have just occurred in the direction of the battlefield, as the aftershocks have already reached their vicinity..."

"You remain where you are and continue to monitor..."

"Relay intelligence at any time and wait for the arrival of the main force."

Nara Shikaku didn't think that squad could play any role in changing the battlefield situation. Rather than having them participate in the battle, they were more useful for staying in place and transmitting intelligence at any time.

"clear."

Sai and Kankuro both agreed.

However… their whereabouts were not kept secret from those present.

Whether it was Obito Uchiha and his group or Shigenori Emiya, they all quickly noticed the approach of a small group, but they didn't care.

"Just a few tiny ants..."

Madara Uchiha paid no attention to the group of ninjas; he only wanted to try to control Obito Uchiha using talismans, but he received no response at all.

"My spell has been sealed..."

Madara Uchiha frowned involuntarily.

"It must be the power of the cursed seal..."

Emiya Shigenori closed his eyes and sniffed lightly, as if he could sense the different power emanating from Obito Uchiha: "There's a cursed seal of Orochimaru on him..."

That curse mark…

It was also one of Obito Uchiha's death warrants.

"Obito."

Orochimaru reappeared beside Obito Uchiha at some point. He also realized the trouble involved in using the Ten-Tails against Shigenori Emiya and urged him, "When will you begin to become the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki...?"

"It needs to continue evolving into its Ten-Tails form..."

Obito Uchiha casually made up an excuse and glanced down at his heart. In fact, he had a secret he hadn't told Orochimaru.

Do not…

Or…

They didn't tell Orochimaru everything.

Inside Obito Uchiha's heart lies a cursed symbol left by Madara Uchiha before his death, preventing him from committing suicide and also allowing Madara to control him.

but…

Outside Obito Uchiha's heart lies a cursed seal that Orochimaru specifically placed to help limit Madara Uchiha's control. However, this cursed seal could also become the trigger for Orochimaru to seize his body at any time.

These two different forces could be considered to be mutually opposed, yet both controlled his body, preventing Obito Uchiha from making any rash moves.

If Madara Uchiha attempts to control Obito Uchiha using the cursed seal, Obito Uchiha can draw out the power of Orochimaru's cursed seal to resist, but this could also lead to Orochimaru taking over his body.
If Orochimaru attempts to seize Obito Uchiha's body using the Cursed Seal, the cursed seal remaining within Obito's body will detect the uncontrolled behavior of Obito's body, but this will lead to him being controlled by Madara Uchiha...

The most important thing now is to make Madara Uchiha's talisman and Orochimaru's cursed seal disappear at the same time so that Obito Uchiha can get rid of these and become the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki.

but…

This cannot be told to Orochimaru.

Obito Uchiha always knew about his ally's wolfish ambitions. Even though they banded together for warmth under the pressure of Shigenori Emiya, they were still scheming against each other.

of course.

Obito Uchiha wasn't exactly deceiving Orochimaru, because the Ten-Tails did indeed need to evolve more completely to make it easier for him to become the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki.

after all…

The Ten-Tails is not at its peak right now.

The Ten-Tails currently possesses only a portion of the Nine-Tails' chakra, far from being perfect. In any case, I can only try step by step.

"Should we continue to evolve?"

Orochimaru's information about the Ten-Tails all came from Obito Uchiha, and he couldn't help but frown: "Now... what else do we need to do to make it evolve?"

"It will evolve on its own."

Obito Uchiha's eyes fell on the Ten-Tails, its two eyes, one purple and one red, looking particularly eerie: "Judging from the current situation, it seems to have been attacked and threatened..."

Just as Obito Uchiha was trying to stall for time with Orochimaru and slowly look for an opportunity to break free from the control of the cursed seal and talisman, a pitch-black space-time gate appeared behind him, and a hand silently slapped his back!
