Naruto: The Abstract Strategist of the Akatsuki

Jiraiya was utterly speechless after learning the full truth of the matter.

According to the prisoner next door, the matter was indeed his fault in the end, but at this point, Jiraiya felt no remorse towards the prisoner next door.

Goodness, even a day as husband and wife brings a hundred days of grace.

Jiraiya felt guilty for a long time, thinking that his neighbor was straight and that he had hurt him.

It turns out that the person next door is a bond-type ninja who hates himself because he lost his old flame.

But the problem is, if I didn't write a novel about bonds with him as the protagonist, those people wouldn't have taken a liking to him, right?

Jiraiya felt that he had no problem; the problem was with the person next door.

This person was born to be like Minato from the Tsukuyomi world where Naruto lived.

Jiraiya thought about it and realized that this place was full of prisoners who had committed crimes. How high could their moral standards be?

He was different; he willingly accepted the false accusation to lure out the clone, and for the safety of the ninja world and others.

Therefore, he doesn't need to feel guilty towards these people because of the problems with the novel.

Having understood these things, Jiraiya continued his training.

He didn't know when the clone would appear; all he had to do was cultivate diligently until the clone appeared.

When Jiraiya entered Hozuki Castle Blood Prison, Obito, who was imprinted in the Tsukuyomi world, finally completed the extraction.

At this moment, one tail, four tails, five tails, seven tails, and nine tails had gathered in his body.

More than half of the tailed beasts were already inside him.

In the past, Obito would have already been ready to declare war.

But having experienced all the setbacks before, Obito knew he absolutely couldn't open the champagne halfway through the game.

Why not continue to use the titles of "the naturally kind Uchiha" and "the masked man who is a great philanthropist" to order Naruto around?

It's just a pity.

He should have included one more person in that prophecy.

Obito only said that he predicted Minato Namikaze would die, so he wanted to sterilize him and extract his tailed beasts, all to help him survive.

However, having experienced the Nine-Tails' rampage in the real ninja world, Obito knew that this prophecy should refer to the night of the Nine-Tails, so Kushina should have died in the prophecy as well.

If he had thought a little deeper back then and included Kushina in the prophecy, he might have been able to kill two birds with one stone and trick Kushina into extracting the tailed beast to save her life.

Of course, this is just wishful thinking.

Firstly, according to intelligence, Kushina, who is imprinted with the Tsukuyomi world, has a very strange personality. Obito cannot be sure whether he can really deceive her or whether his lies will be exposed and he will be exposed in advance.

Secondly, it's too late to say anything now.

I've said it once before, and saying it again now would be far too obvious.

It's one thing to fool Naruto, but it's another for others.

Unless he can get the Great Toad Sage to make another prophecy.

The problem is that so much time has passed since the original time of the Nine-Tails Night, and even if the Great Toad Sage made a prophecy, it's highly unlikely that he would have predicted Kushina's death.

"Thank you so much, Obito. I can finally get a good night's sleep!"

Minato Namikaze felt overjoyed as he felt the nine layers of resurrection armor on his body.

"You're welcome, Minato-sensei. It's what I should do."

Obito scratched his head, smiling憨厚ly.

In his mind, he was complaining: Didn't Minato Namikaze just find out about the prophecy a few days ago?

Moreover, even if he knew the prophecy, he slept like a log in the Divine Might Space. Where was he not getting a good night's sleep?

"Minato-sensei, as the embodiment of justice, I now bear the burden of so many tailed beasts. I want to do something good; I want to change the ninja world. I hope you and Naruto can help me."

Obito looked at Minato Namikaze with a serious expression.

"What is it?"

Minato Namikaze was curious.

"I learned about the Otsutsuki clan from the Uchiha clan's secret scrolls, and I have been working hard to prepare for resisting the Otsutsuki for many years."

Obito shamelessly took on the very things that the Akatsuki was doing in the real ninja world and attributed them to himself.

"That Otsutsuki Isshiki outside confirms my idea was correct. The Otsutsuki clan is far too powerful; they are born stronger than us..."

As Obito spoke, he kept a close eye on Minato Namikaze's expression.

He needed to ascertain the extent to which Minato-sensei cared about this matter.

As for Naruto, if we can fool Minato-sensei first, then dealing with Naruto will be easy.

When he realized that Minato-sensei didn't seem interested in the matter, Obito immediately changed the subject: "The Otsutsuki clan descended upon the ninja world and countless other worlds with one purpose: to plant trees—to plant the Divine Tree."

It's not because they love nature, but because the Otsutsuki clan are evil plant fanatics!

"Plant enthusiast? What's that?"

Minato Namikaze was caught off guard.

"It's the plant-obsessed type that corresponds to the Fu Rui control. The Otsutsuki clan turned the Ten-Tails into a divine tree to satisfy their evil purposes."

They roamed the realms, annihilating all other XPs.

Not only heterosexual ninjas, but also bond-type ninjas and fortune-obsessed ninjas are destined to die.

Only plant lovers can survive.

Actually, teacher, haven't you noticed? The Otsutsuki clan, the very name Otsutsuki, already proclaims the evil of this clan.

"Big log!"

Obito's emotionally charged narration directly stirred up Minato Namikaze's emotions.

"What? The Otsutsuki clan is this evil? I was even thinking that if they attacked, I could lead the way! Now it seems we must fight to the death!"

Minato Namikaze clenched his fists, his face resolute.

"So, teacher, for the safety of the ninja world, we must concentrate our efforts to fight against the Otsutsuki, so I will gather all the tailed beasts."

I now have one, four, five, and nine on my person.

I'm preparing to return to Kusagakure to find the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki who tried to harm me and Naruto.

The remaining Eight-Tails and Two-Tails are in Kumogakure. I hope you can help me obtain them, teacher.

"As for the Three-Tails and Six-Tails, I hope Naruto can lend me a hand."

Obito finally revealed his purpose.

If he were to directly say that he wanted to become the second Sage of Six Paths, it might seem pretentious, but it would definitely arouse suspicion.

But now that Obito has said this, Minato and Naruto both believe that Obito is truly concerned for the safety of the ninja world.

"No problem. I've already heard from Naruto that Killer Bee is pregnant with my child. As the child's father, I'm sure I can convince him."

As for the Two-Tails, I'll try my best after I convince Killer Bee.

Minato Namikaze agreed.

"Alright, I'll leave Kirigakure to you. It just so happens that I... uh, I mean, I wanted to go take a look."

Naruto almost let slip that what he wanted to say was that he happened to be in Kirigakure in the real ninja world. He had just arrived in Kirigakure and was already familiar with the roads and people there.
