Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan.

Chapter 184 Using the Vortex Void to Counter Uchiha Kumo (22) Four Thousand

"Has Uzumaki Sora returned?"

Obito's voice rang out.

Behind him, Black and White Jue slowly emerged from the ground.

"That guy suddenly appeared after midnight. Obito... why do these people always set up a barrier when they poop? Wouldn't it be more comfortable for the three of them to go together?"

"Shut up!"

Black Zetsu's angry shout rang out, and he then looked at Obito and said, "As soon as Uzumaki Sora appeared, he went to Nagato's location, and Konan was there too. However, because of the sensory barrier, we cannot know what's going on inside."

"However, this time the opponent revived at the exact moment, suddenly appearing at the village's time-space coordinates using the Flying Thunder God Technique. Perhaps... based on previous intelligence, Uzumaki Sora's revival can only be a day later, that is, after midnight."

Obito nodded: "On the battlefield, it seems that his last statement about immortality was true. Under the power of Uchiha Kumo's final red steam Death Gate, he wouldn't even have had a chance to use the Flying Thunder God Technique."

Black Zetsu remained indifferent for a moment before asking, "The body of your descendant is truly terrifying! The power of Uchiha Cloud opening the Gate of Death in the Eight Gates Released Technique is completely different from the Gate of Death of Might Guy."

Obito scoffed, "Even Madara Uchiha's will can be shaken by such power?"

Black Zetsu shook his head slightly: "No, even that kind of power is ultimately just human power. Neither Uzumaki Sora nor Uchiha Kumo can stop the implementation of the Eye of the Moon Plan."

As soon as he finished speaking, Obito remained indifferent.

Only the world of Infinite Tsukuyomi is the real world; only the world where Rin never died; only the world where Kakashi fulfilled his promise; only the world where the teacher was never late—that is the most real world!

That world has no war, no sorrow or tears; only such a world is perfect!

Black Zetsu glanced at Obito, then slowly sank into the ground.

After thousands of years of planning, at this final moment when their mother was about to be rescued, no one could stop the arrival of Infinite Tsukuyomi.

Even with that kind of strength, it was as powerless as a child playing in front of his mother.

But before that, Uchiha Kumo, who has the bloodline of Indra and has already awakened the Eternal Eye, might be just as easy to fool as Madara?

If such combat power were to join, perhaps Madara's necessity would not be so important.

The Uchiha clan, who are the most capable of understanding love, only hate the world and want to create a world like the Infinite Tsukuyomi when they lose love.

……

The Land of Earth, Hidden Rock Village.

At this moment, only Onoki and Yotsuchi were present in the Tsuchikage's conference room.

When the Iwagakure ninja who had acted as a witness returned, Onoki, who immediately sensed something was wrong, took the recording and temporarily imprisoned him.

Just then, the video recording in the conference room finished playing. Onoki, who was nearly seventy years old, clenched his fists, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged out, becoming even more prominent with age.

"Father...does such power...really exist?"

Does it really exist?

Ōnoki stared intently at the giant Susanoo formed from blue chakra in the video, the power it possessed after adorning the Nine-Tails—a power he would never forget for the rest of his life!

Because the day he went to Konoha with his teacher was the most humiliating day of his life.

That being named Uchiha Madara was also his lifelong nightmare.

The battle at the Valley of the End, that nightmare is dead.

But now... Konoha has once again possessed this power!

Do not!

Not only Konoha, but also this guy from Akatsuki named Uzumaki Sora, who was remembered by the black market a few years ago as the Red Flash, but now... why is there even a Wood Release technique of the level of the First Hokage?

The power of these two is exactly the same as that of the two heroes of the Warring States period!

"call……"

Onoki let out a long sigh, then looked at Huangtu: "I have a question in my mind right now."

Huang Tu was stunned.

Onoki continued, "Why does Konoha keep producing so many geniuses? From Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, to Hiruzen Sarutobi, Kagami Uchiha, the White Fang of Konoha, the Yellow Flash, and the Legendary Sannin of Konoha."

"And now, an Uchiha Kumo has emerged who has reached the level of Madara Uchiha back then! Geniuses are emerging one after another, and they occupy Konoha, the most prosperous village on this continent. What makes them so special?!"

Onoki's words saddened Huang Tu, who, as the next generation, no longer knew how to respond.

Although he was extremely confident in his Earth Release ninjutsu, it was utterly insignificant compared to the power shown in the video...

And I've heard that Uchiha Yun, who consecutively killed the Third and Fourth Raikage, is only a little over thirteen years old this year...

To possess such power at such a young age is beyond what can be summed up by simply calling someone a genius.

Only a monster can define this existence.

"Why……"

After a long while, Onoki, who had not received a reply, sighed.

In fact, there was no blame in his words just now, because on the day the Second Tsuchikage took him to Konoha, he was just as powerless and helpless as the yellow earth.

"What do you think we should do with this video?"

Onoki's voice rang out.

Huang Tu paused, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Dad temporarily imprisoned Yuan Tu before. Should we seal him up? After all, the other three major ninja villages besides Konoha don't know this kind of information. Perhaps we can use it to sow discord between them and Konoha?"

"Bang!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Onoki, his brows furrowed and eyelids twitching, unable to contain his anger any longer, flew up and punched his son.

"Click!"

A crisp sound rang out, and in an instant, Onoki clutched his lower back, his face contorted in pain: "My...my back..."

After a long while, Onoki, who was helped up by Huang Tu and sat down again with his back pressed, had a bitter look on his face: "It is not shameful to be unable to fight or not dare to fight when faced with such power, because even I, an old man, have been afraid when faced with such power before."

"But... lacking both strength and brains, you can only lead Iwagakure to its destruction!"

As he spoke, Onoki frowned in pain. He was getting old, and he no longer knew how much longer he could live.

However, none of the next generation of Iwagakure could be truly trusted or put under his control.

Perhaps the reason I've lived so long is because I still can't let go...

"Why……"

Sighing again, Onoki looked at the bowed head of the yellow earth: "Make three copies of this video and sell them to those three ninja villages. The battlefield that could sink a corner of the continent will probably be a gathering place for spies from various villages today."

"And that Uchiha Kumo from Konoha has a record of killing two Raikages; they won't give him up. Selling him to them is the only way to drag them into a collective, making them wary of Konoha's collective. Understand?"

Following Onoki's words, Huangtu finally understood.

Under such earth-shattering power, no village could withstand it, not even the four great ninja villages combined...

In this situation, trying to scheme against other villages and force them to confront Konoha would be tantamount to throwing an egg against a rock and losing one's own strength.

Onoki glanced at his son, then nodded: "It's good that you can understand. If a power like Madara Uchiha were to reappear in Konoha, then both we and the other three ninja villages would inevitably feel the greatest fear towards Konoha."

"This apprehension, which even surpasses the fear of apprehension, may not be enough to unite our group and start the Fourth Shinobi World War, but the subtle targeting will begin to appear from now on."

"And if one day we have the opportunity to eliminate Uchiha Kumo, then no matter what methods are used, the four great ninja villages will unite all available forces!"

"and……"

Huang Tu paused, looking at Onoki with a puzzled expression. After waiting for a while without getting a response, he asked, "Dad, and what?"

"Bang!"

After being hit again, Onoki said angrily, "Furthermore, information about Uzumaki Sora is already circulating on the black market. Akatsuki can hire people with money, which allows a force like Uzumaki Sora to stand against Uchiha Kumo."

"Where can you find such a good deal? But we can't always be the ones paying, you understand?! We have to make them bleed a little too!"

???

Huang Tu was stunned: "Xuanwo Kong, wasn't he dead? Was what he said before he died about not dying true?"

Onoki was furious: "Regarding the intelligence, from today onwards you must memorize everything! There must be a rumor circulating on the black market that Uzumaki Sora is an immortal ninja capable of resurrection! This can be verified simply by hiring Akatsuki again..."

After giving some instructions, Huang Tu took the order and went out to carry it out.

Meanwhile, Onoki, who was still alone in the conference room, slowly closed his eyes, as if he had fallen asleep.

An immortal ninja...

Originally named after the Fourth Hokage of Konoha's space-time ninjutsu in the black market, it was able to lose its life to some petty bandits back then.

Although it can be resurrected, and the accumulation of experience has resulted in it only having two death records.

but……

There's so much information here: Wood Release, Flying Thunder God Technique, Mangekyou Sharingan...

Each of their abilities comes from Konoha, and they all share the surname Uzumaki.

The wife of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, was from the Uzumaki clan, and the wife of the current Fourth Hokage is also from the Uzumaki clan.

So... is it possible that Uzumaki Sora and Uchiha Kumo were actually staging a play by Konoha themselves?

Its purpose is nothing more than to create a balance of power?

The existence of Uchiha Kumo deterred the four great ninja villages from making any rash moves against Konoha, while the existence of the Uzumaki Akatsuki organization allowed them to quickly absorb the money of the four great ninja villages.

If this continues, perhaps Konoha will be able to unify the entire ninja world without lifting a finger?!

Thinking of this, Onoki opened his eyes in an instant.

No!

Information about Uzumaki Sora belonging to the Akatsuki organization cannot be given out for the time being. At this stage, the black market only knows him by the name of the Red Flash. This information must be kept secret!

Light and heavy rock technique!

Using ninjutsu, Onoki, who had been lifted into the air, quickly left the conference room.

……

Meanwhile, in the coastal areas bordering the Land of Fire.

The once desolate border region has suddenly been filled with many unfamiliar faces.

The original coastline had now receded several miles inland. The spies holding the original map were all astonished by this situation.

The previous battle, with its rampant chakra and a day-long roar, was bound to attract attention, but no one could have imagined that it was merely a change in terrain caused by two people.

"What's going on here? Is Konoha or Kirigakure starting a war here? Why haven't we received any news?"

"No, that's a Kirigakure ninja over there. He's here to investigate just like us. That's enough to prove that it's not Kirigakure that's fighting Konoha here."

……

"Darui, can you feel it?"

"Yes, it's exactly the same as the cold chakra left behind when Uchiha Yun used the Blue Giant Ninjutsu."

"Uchiha Kumo... Judging from the intelligence gathered during that war, even he couldn't have turned this place upside down... Could it be... a large-scale war?"

"No, all five great ninja villages except Konoha and Iwagakure have come, but given the border between Iwagakure and Konoha, it's impossible for them to start a war with Konoha here. But since they didn't come, they must know something."

"Should we speak with Iwagakure?"

"Yes, send an envoy under the guise of a visit. Since Konoha hasn't made a sound, they're clearly adopting a laissez-faire attitude."

"Sigh... Since when did we Kumogakure ninjas have to consider Konoha's attitude before we can act?"

"This is just temporary restraint. Watch your words!"

……

"Qing, can you confirm this?"

"This chilling chakra is indeed the power of the Uchiha clan. And combined with what I saw when I exhausted my chakra that day, I can confirm it."

Mei Terumi frowned slightly upon hearing this. Unlike the other ninja villages, this battlefield was probably the closest to Kirigakure.

But it is precisely because of this that she and Qing are able to experience the fear brought about by this battlefield.

The sea was cleaved in two...

The earth trembled incessantly, as if in an earthquake...

Hills crumbled, ground sank...

Such terrifying power was formed from just the duel of two people!

If I said that, probably no one would believe me.

But this scene truly took place on the opposite bank of the Land of Water...

Has Uchiha Kumo's power actually reached this level?

With such power, even though Kirigakure has begun to gradually recover, what are their chances of winning?

"Go back and give the information to Master Yuan..."

"Don't we need to verify the other person's identity?"

"Since Iwagakure hasn't come, the other four great ninja villages will surely feel the same apprehension. Let's wait for Iwagakure's intelligence."

Upon hearing this, Qing looked around and, to his dismay, found no one from Iwagakure.

Normally, such an unbridled gaze would inevitably cause trouble.

But now... it's clear that nobody cares about these trivial details anymore.

Konoha...like a huge shadow, enveloping everyone within it.
