Chiba's expression shifted between light and dark.
He was wondering whether Hiruzen Sarutobi was unaware of Danzo's plot to harm him, or whether he saw it as a test for him.
"This journey to Sunagakure is far more dangerous than I imagined. I must find a way to extricate myself as soon as possible!"
Chiba frowned and then manipulated the consciousness of Yamanaka Yoru, turning it completely into "one of his own".
In this way, by using the night wind of the mountains as a pawn, the Root ninjas can be used by him.
"This is not enough..."
Chiba frowned, pondered for a moment, and then suddenly let out a cold laugh.
"Why don't I try a different approach? Since Shimura Danzo wants to throw Sunagakure into chaos, then I'll make Sunagakure completely chaotic, so chaotic that no one will care about me anymore!"
As for who should be held responsible for this turmoil?
Of course, it's our first Nagakage—Shimura Danzo!
It didn't take long.
Yama no Yoru left Chiba's room full of energy.
"Lord Yamanaka, you..."
The Root ninjas outside the door glanced at the quiet Chiba inside, then leaned closer to Yamanaka Yoru and asked in a low voice, "Did you succeed?"
"Of course, with me personally taking charge, how could it possibly fail?"
Yama no Yoru smiled confidently. In his mind, Chiba had now become a puppet at his mercy.
Tsk, it's a pity she's not a young woman, otherwise he could have had some fun with her.
"You guys, quickly contact the people in the Wind Shadow."
Yamanaka Yoru instructed, "Have them send over a list of people who may have come into contact with the Sunagakure Jinchuriki. I'll have Chiba investigate for us."
"Yes, Lord Yamanaka!" several Root ninjas replied in low voices.
……
Early the next morning.
Yamazakura swaggered into Chiba's room, tossed him a list, and then tried to swagger away.
"You're riding a horse!"
Chiba immediately grabbed Yamanaka Yofu by the collar and, to the other's astonishment, slapped him twice across the face. Then, he activated his Sharingan to reinforce the effects of the genjutsu he had placed on him.
"Phew...that felt great! Hi~ Take care, sir!"
Chiba carefully treated Yamanaka Yofu, and after smilingly seeing Yamanaka-sama off, he lowered his head to look at the list in his hand.
It must be said that this list is extremely detailed, including not only each person's name and portrait, but also their personality and preferences, as well as the role they might play in imprisoning the Jinchuriki.
The roles of guards, informants, intelligence envoys, cooks, food deliverymen, etc., are all clearly identified.
"If the Kazekage wanted to, he could probably forcibly take the position of Jinchūriki at any time."
"But he dared not act rashly before dealing with Chiyo and the others, for fear of provoking their resistance and resulting in a lose-lose situation."
After understanding the situation, Chiba immediately felt reassured, and a plan instantly took shape in his mind.
"If I can persuade the Third Kazekage to attack both Chiyo and the Jinchuriki at the same time, and then find a way to release Shukaku and cause a ruckus in Sunagakure... heh!"
Chiba grinned, revealing a sinister smile.
The perfect answer to the Nine-Tails' rampage is right there; all he needs to do is copy it and orchestrate a "One-Tailed Rampage" in Sunagakure.
At that point, both sides will assume that the other side released Shukaku, and they will definitely fight to the death, with no one paying any attention to this little kid.
"If things go well, I might even be able to benefit from it!" Chiba thought, squinting his eyes.
After a Tailed Beast rampage, it wouldn't be unreasonable for Sunagakure to have a hundred or so people seriously injured. If he were to kindly help treat them, the reward would be enormous...
"Chiba, are you there?"
Just as Chiba was having a wild idea, Rasa's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"I'm here, come in, Brother Luo Sha."
Chiba quickly hid the list, got up to open the door for Rasa, and asked with a smile, "Is there something you need from me?"
"Chiba...I..."
Luo Sha seemed unsure how to begin, hesitating several times before finally setting up a soundproof barrier around the house after Chiba closed the door.
"What are you doing, Brother Luo Sha?"
Chiba cautiously took two steps back. In the Naruto world, boys also face the risk of being forced. This could very well be some new form of anal deception!
"Chiba, I've come to tell you something important."
After hesitating for a long time, Luo Sha finally gritted his teeth and spoke.
Rasa knew very well that the Third Kazekage didn't care about Chiba's life or death at all. If Chiba really followed the Kazekage's orders, he would only face certain death.
On one side is the Kazekage's grand plan, and on the other is a complete stranger who has nothing to do with him. Logically speaking, Rasa should choose the former without hesitation.
But... but only Chiba genuinely believed that Rasa was someone special!
Even the Kazekage only praises him when he needs his help; he doesn't really care about him.
But when Chiba said that Rasa was capable of becoming the Fourth Kazekage, it was from the bottom of his heart, and Rasa could sense that!
"Don't even think about using your strange escape technique to leave, Chiba. Sunagakure has plenty of powerful crossbows hidden inside. You'll be riddled with bullets the moment you take off," Rasa said seriously.
After hearing this, Chiba felt a chill run down his spine; he had actually considered this plan!
"If you want to leave Sunagakure, there is only one way: take the Magnet Release token that I and the Kazekage made specially... Here!"
As he spoke, Luo Sha took out a small token from his pocket and tossed it to Chiba.
Snapped.
Chiba took the token and looked at it; he saw that Rasa's name was engraved on it.
“Before you take off, activate this token with your chakra. Within ten minutes, the crossbows along the way will no longer be able to lock onto you,” Rasa explained.
Chiba fiddled with the token in his hand, and asked with some doubt, "Brother Rasa, you just gave me something so valuable like that, aren't you afraid...?"
Luo Sha smiled slightly, "Because I think you will definitely achieve great things in the future, it would be a pity if you died here."
Chapter 64 Let's get chaotic, Sand Village!
Chiba was subtly moved.
He gripped the token in his hand and suddenly said, "Brother Luo Sha, you should know very well that neither you nor I are anything more than pawns in the hands of the Third Kazekage, and we could be sacrificed at any time."
Luo Sha nodded slightly, his expression solemn, and said, "I know, but a scholar will die for one who understands him, I..."
"Brother Luo Sha, is this all the value you have?"
Chiba interrupted Rasa, saying, "Whether the Third Kazekage truly appreciates you or is simply out of options, you know the answer in your heart. Does dying for him really prove your worth?"
"I……"
Luo Sha's body trembled, rendered speechless by Chiba's words, and he left Chiba's room in a daze.
"Alas, every sip and every bite, perhaps it is all predestined."
Watching Luo Sha's departing figure, Qianye felt a pang of emotion. If possible, he hoped that Brother Value wouldn't die in the chaos he was about to orchestrate.
Shaking his head, Chiba stopped thinking about it and took out the list again to look through it.
It's very difficult to transfer a Jinchuriki out without anyone noticing. It's so difficult that even after so much preparation, the Kazekage didn't dare to make a move.
But if the goal is simply to use a Jinchūriki to cause chaos, then it's much simpler.
For example, you could lock onto a real guard and hide a paper clone created from an explosive tag on the guard's body.
For example, you could find a cook or a food delivery person to add something to Benfu's food so that Benfu loses consciousness. The lively and adorable Shukaku would definitely be happy to come out and get some fresh air!
Of course, all of this is based on Chiba's Sharingan.
"Even if Sunagakure later discovered that it was Konoha who used genjutsu, the only person in the group who was proficient in genjutsu was Shimura Danzo's subordinate—Yamanaka Yokaze!"
In this way, all that is needed is to kill the mountain night wind during the turmoil, and the whole plan will be perfectly closed.
"Hmm, I need to hurry," Chiba muttered to himself.
With only a few days left before the banquet, he needs to make good use of Danzo, the Kazekage's people, and his own identity as "Sasori's friend" to complete his plan!
……
The last night before the banquet began.
In the Third Kazekage's palace, Chiba and Yamanaka Yoru, avoiding being seen, quietly appeared before the Kazekage who was feigning sleep.
"Lord Kazekage, we have located the One-Tailed Jinchuriki. Should we send our men to move him out?" Yamanaka Yofu asked.
This was a line that Chiba had prepared in advance for Yamanaka Yokaze. Chiba wanted to use it to influence the Third Kazekage's decision and make him feel a sense of crisis that "delay will lead to changes."
Look, whether it's the people of Konoha or Chiyo's subordinates, they might all try to take action against the Jinchuriki after the banquet incident. So, shouldn't you try to get them under your control as soon as possible?
"You didn't alert Chiyo, did you?"
The Third Kazekage did not answer Yamanaka Yofu's question, but instead changed the subject.
"Of course not. This kid easily got his hands on the information by taking advantage of his relationship with Scorpion."
Yamanaka Yoru pointed to Chiba, who stood behind him like a puppet, and said smugly.
He deserves the most credit for this!
"That's good."
The Third Kazekage nodded and said, "You don't need to worry about the Jinchuriki. You just need to wait for my order at the banquet to launch a surprise attack on Chiyo and the others."
"Yes, Lord Kazekage."
After leaving the Kazekage's palace, Chiba was somewhat uneasy, unsure whether his plan would go smoothly and cause the two groups to fight both inside and outside.
After all, only when Sunagakure descends into complete chaos can the blame be pinned on Shimura Danzo, allowing him to remain uninvolved...
"Forget it, why think so much? We've already planned this far, so we can only leave it to fate."
