Analyzing the Ninja World Starting from Konoha

Chapter 267 Obito's Use of Another's Blame

To improve the cursed seal, Orochimaru's help is needed, since Orochimaru is the developer and already has extensive clinical experience.

However, before that, we still need to answer Orochimaru's questions and address the confusion of Shisui and Itachi.

Others may not know or only have a vague understanding of the feud between the Uchiha and Senju clans, but Shisui and Itachi, as members of the Uchiha clan, could not possibly be unaware of it, not to mention Orochimaru.

"The reason why Hashirama cells can restore the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan has to start with the source of chakra."

Aoba leaned against the lab bench, arms crossed, his gaze sweeping over the three people present.

"Have you ever wondered where chakra, this kind of energy, actually comes from?"

Shisui and Itachi exchanged a glance, both showing thoughtful expressions.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly.

"The Origin of Chakra —"

Orochimaru murmured to himself, "The Sage of Six Paths?"

"Go further ahead."

Aoba held up one finger.

"A long, long time ago, before the emergence of Ninjutsu, and even before the birth of the Sage of Six Paths, there was no chakra in this world."

"Until one day, a woman from the stars descended upon this land."

"Oh, now we call her by the name————"

"Goddess of the Rabbit!"

Just as Aoba was explaining historical myths to the group.

In the Land of Rain, in a hidden underground base.

The dim firelight flickered on the wall, casting long shadows of two eerie figures.

Wearing a tiger-skin mask, Obito Uchiha sat on a stone platform, revealing only his right eye, a scarlet three-tomoe Sharingan.

Before him, Jue was reporting the latest intelligence.

Despite joining forces, Kakuzu and Sasori failed to gain any advantage over Yamashiro Aoba and ultimately managed to escape in a sorry state under Konan's cover.

Kakuzu lost three of his hearts, and Sasori's most prized Kazekage puppet was also stolen.

After listening to the report, Obito remained silent for a moment before asking a question.

"Black Zetsu, were you there too?"

"----Yes."

The other half of Jue's black body opened.

"I observed the whole process from a distance."

"Kakuzu and Sasori's attacks were almost ineffective against him; neither physical attacks nor ninjutsu could cause him any real damage."

"His kind of 'melt escape' immortality is extremely troublesome."

At this point, Black Zetsu deliberately omitted the fact that he was almost trapped by Aoba's shadow clone using a sealing technique.

That moment of terror was one of the very few fatal crises that Black Zetsu had ever experienced in his more than a thousand years of life.

But he absolutely must not let Obito know about this.

At the same time, his fear of Yamashiro Aoba had reached its peak.

Black Zetsu even suspected that Yamashiro Aoba already knew his true identity, otherwise why would he use a sealing technique instead of other ninjutsu to trap him!

"Obito, your previous judgment was correct."

Hei Jue said in a deep voice, "This mountain city Qingye is indeed a huge problem, and may even become the biggest variable in our plan."

Upon hearing this, Obito's eyes narrowed slightly beneath his mask.

interesting.

When he attacked Kurama beforehand, Black Zetsu had some reservations about his actions and didn't care about Yamashiro Aoba at all.

Now they're actually admitting that Yamashiro Aoba is a big problem?!

It seems that they suffered a hidden loss at the hands of Yamashiro Aoba.

However, Obito didn't expose it, which is not important.

The important thing is Yamashiro Aoba himself.

The existence of Yamashiro Aoba is like a thorn stuck in one's throat, making it difficult to eat or sleep.

In particular, Aoba Yamashiro's research on the Sharingan.

It's astonishing that an outsider has such a deep understanding of the Sharingan. You should know that Obito initially awakened his Sharingan with the help of Yamashiro Aoba, and his Sharingan was already at the two-tomoe stage.

"He even has the Mangekyou Sharingan—"

Obito tapped his knee lightly with his fingers, his brain racing.

This is the point that Obito couldn't understand the most: Yamashiro Aoba was clearly of commoner origin, so where did he get the Mangekyou Sharingan?

According to recent intelligence gathered by White Zetsu, the Uchiha clan of Konoha, under Aoba's influence, has completely sided with Tsunade's faction.

Furthermore, the Uchiha clan even made all of their core secret techniques available to Aoba.

"Could it be that—he got those eyes from Fugaku?"

Obito secretly speculated in his mind.

He didn't believe that Yamashiro Aoba, an outsider, could develop the Mangekyou Sharingan on his own.

After all, he had personally seen the contents of the stone tablet in the underground of the Naga Shrine. The awakening of the Mangekyou Sharingan has extremely strict conditions, and it is impossible to truly awaken the Sharingan without the bloodline of the Uchiha.

The only explanation is that Yamashiro Aoba somehow transplanted the Uchiha's eyes, and these eyes were even given to him by Fugaku!

"The most crucial thing now is to figure out what kind of eye technique Yamashiro Aoba's Mangekyou Sharingan contains." Obito's eyes grew increasingly gloomy.

Yamashiro Aoba used it once during the Nine-Tails' rampage.

With just one glance, it felt as if an invisible blade had pierced his heart; that feeling of death remains vivid in his memory to this day.

If it weren't for Izanagi, he would probably be dead by now!

That's only the ability of one eye. What about the other eye?

Only those who have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan know how tricky its eye techniques are.

Before he had figured out all of Aoba's trump cards, Obito absolutely did not want to rashly confront him head-on again.

Moreover, Yamashiro Aoba's fighting style is extremely disgusting.

There is absolutely no fixed pattern for the moves.

If I had to pinpoint a specific tactic, it would be that he'll use whatever you're best at to attack you.

They crush you in your most prized area, thus utterly destroying your confidence.

This kind of combat, full of wicked humor, can not only physically eliminate the enemy, but also completely destroy their will.

And that damned Yamashiro Aoba is particularly skilled at developing ninjutsu; you never know what strange ninjutsu he's secretly come up with.

He even saw through White Zetsu's disguise, which meant that they could only obtain information about Yamashiro Aoba indirectly through other channels.

Based on the intelligence gathered, it seems that Yamashiro Aoba is good at everything. He can do ninjutsu, body taijutsu, genjutsu, medical ninjutsu, and there is nothing he can't do. He has no weaknesses and is very strong in all of them.

This is absolutely outrageous.

Unless Nagato personally intervenes, perhaps they can find out his true strength.

But Nagato is their last trump card, and it's not time to use him yet; the Rinnegan's abilities cannot be revealed too early.

"Obito, don't forget."

Black Zetsu offered a timely reminder, "The Mangekyou Sharingan can only unleash its true power when both are present. Yamashiro Aoba is strong, but he is, after all, an outsider, and may not be able to fully master the power of the Sharingan."

Obito glanced at Black Zetsu; he understood what the guy meant.

But if you want to test someone's true character, you don't necessarily have to get involved yourself.

Since external enemies may not pose a threat to Yamashiro Aoba, then we can look for a breakthrough from within Konoha.

"I don't believe that Yamashiro Aoba really has no weaknesses."

Obito stood up, a cold killing intent flashing in his single eye.

Aren't the higher-ups in Konoha currently locked in a fierce power struggle?! Although that old man Danzo is under house arrest, his Root faction is still intact.

Danzo now probably wants to get rid of Yamashiro Aoba even more than he did.

"Black Zetsu, have White Zetsu try to make contact with Danzo."

Obito coldly ordered, "Tell him we have something he's interested in."

Using someone else to do the dirty work is the safest way to test someone.

Yamashiro Aoba, let me see just how many tricks you have up your sleeve!
