Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan.

Chapter 213 Let's go to Konoha

The only one capable of confronting Konoha's Uchiha Kumo is Uzumaki Sora, just like when the ninja village system was first established, the only one capable of confronting Uchiha Madara was Senju Hashirama.

In the past, when Nagato still doubted Obito's identity as Madara Uchiha, he might have had absolute confidence in his godlike power.

but now……

Pain stared directly at Obito, his eyes devoid of any emotion: "So... can you, now, stop Konoha's Uchiha Kumo when the Tailed Beast Capture Plan begins?"

These words left Obito momentarily speechless.

stop?

What can you use to stop them? Your head?

On the scroll Madara gave himself before his death, there was the complete Susanoo, plus the power of the Nine-Tails.

Underneath his imposing armor, he possesses the fighting strength of another Madara Uchiha.

How can I stop such a force?

Kamui's ability does indeed allow him to remain unharmed, but to stop him... how is that possible?!

After a moment of silence, Obito looked at Pain: "So, Uzumaki Sora... is that what you rely on to fight against Uchiha Kumo?"

Pain nodded slightly: "As the ancestor of the Uchiha clan, you should be very familiar with the power of the battle at the Sea of ​​the End. Only Uzumaki Sora, who mastered the Wood Release of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, could contend with such power."

As soon as he finished speaking, Obito remained indifferent.

At this moment, his mind was filled with a thousand thoughts.

Don't you believe in yourself anymore?

That makes sense...

This book was first published on 2009.com, providing you with a reading experience free of errors and disordered chapters.

From the very beginning, Nagato never believed in his identity as Uchiha Madara.

But now... does he already know his own identity?

Obito looked at Pain with a serious expression. He knew that Pain's gaze was now connected to Nagato on the tower.

Their eyes met through Pain's eyes.

After a long while, Pain's face remained expressionless, and Obito was completely unaware of anything.

"Nagato, perhaps in the end our enemy won't be Uchiha Kumo..."

Payne remained indifferent.

Obito continued in a deep voice, "As a member of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Yun simply hasn't experienced the suffering of this world yet. According to Konoha's intelligence, his Eternal Eyes are merely a phenomenon of bloodline atavism."

"He has not yet experienced pain to gain such immense power; he does not yet understand the darkness of this world. Only after he has experienced what you and I have gone through will he have the will to change this world."

"Only in a world where everyone can be satisfied, without war, hatred, or scarcity of resources, can true peace be born."

As Obito finished speaking, his gaze fell upon the faint light of the candlestick.

That kind of world...

There's Kakashi, and there's Rin...

In the end, amidst Pain's silence, Obito and the black and white Zetsu disappeared from this place.

……

Meanwhile, inside the tower of Amegakure, Nagato frowned slightly and said, "It seems he wants to drag Uchiha Kumo into darkness."

Xiao Nan, who was standing to the side, nodded slightly. She had not expressed any opinion during the gathering.

Because of this choice, she had no choice but to follow Nagato's will.

"Just like before, the destruction of the Akatsuki organization and Yahiko's death plunged you, Nagato, into darkness. Now, he wants to use the same method to make Uchiha Kumo follow his plan."

Konan frowned slightly as she spoke, "Nagato, as far as we can see, only Uzumaki Sora can contend with Uchiha Kumo. Since we've already chosen to trust him for now, should we inform him?"

Nagato pondered for a long time before saying, "According to the information about Uchiha Yun, the most important bond that could make such a strong person understand pain should be his mother and sister."

Konan nodded: "Uchiha Hazuki is an ordinary Uchiha clansman who lives in Konoha Village most of the year. Uchiha Izumi is currently participating in the Chunin Exams, the joint exams of the five great ninja villages..."

At this point, Xiao Nan understood in an instant.

The Chunin Exams are a crucial point!

Only after becoming a Chunin can one lead a team on a mission independently.

And this... is Obito's opportunity!

"Although Uchiha Kumo is currently our enemy, we cannot entrust such an enemy to that guy."

Nagato looked at Konan as he spoke: "By using the four great ninja villages and adding a few subtle maneuvers, we were able to kill Uchiha Izumi. This... how similar is it to our original plan?"

Beneath a bitter smile, Pain, controlled by Nagato, formed hand seals.

Xiao Nan, who was standing to the side, sighed softly.

Yahiko's death, Hanzo's despicable actions, and a series of other events have filled Nagato's heart with darkness.

And myself...

After being ambushed and held hostage, Yahiko wouldn't have died if it weren't for me...

At that moment, an illusion appeared inside the tower.

Uzumaki Sora looked around and said, "It's quite rare for the leader to summon me alone. But is this time because of Obito?"

Uzumaki Sora chuckled as he spoke, and a situation different from what he remembered occurred: Obito was suddenly promoted to a full member of Akatsuki by Pain.

In this situation, Obito would inevitably question him afterward.

It's important to know that in the original story, even when few people knew about him left, Tobi was still an apprentice when he teamed up with Deidara.

This shows that Obito always took his acting skills very seriously.

"I have already decided to follow your will. The title of leader is nothing more than a facade."

As Nagato's voice faded, he turned to Uzumaki Sora and asked, "Do we now know your last resort among the Five Great Shinobi Villages?"

Uzumaki Sora smiled slightly: "Before that, let's check on that guy's situation first."

Nagato and Konan exchanged a glance, and then Nagato spoke directly: "That guy wants to use the same method he used on me on Uchiha Kumo of Konoha again..."

"Only when one understands the darkness of this world and becomes utterly disillusioned with it will one contemplate how to achieve true peace. Of course, that would only mean killing all of humanity."

Sora smiled and said, "Is Obito planning to make a move against Uchiha Izumi, Uchiha Yun's sister? ... There's one thing he might not be aware of right now: Uchiha Yun has now learned the Fourth Hokage's Flying Thunder God Technique."

"Under these circumstances, if Uchiha Yun is prepared, he might not be able to achieve his goal."

Flying Thunder God Technique?

Nagato paused for a moment, then asked, "In that case, Uchiha Yun's power has already surpassed yours."

Uzumaki Sora slightly raised his head to look at Nagato: "In your perception, would I not grow at all? It's just that Uchiha Kumo's Eight Gates Released Formation, such a desperate fight, combined with that eye technique that can instantly restore health, is indeed a bit troublesome."

At this moment, Konan spoke up and asked, "If we want to remain an enemy of the Five Great Shinobi Villages, then the plan to capture the Tailed Beasts still needs to begin."

"And facing Uchiha Kumo from Konoha will be inevitable. Therefore, the key is to find a force that can contend with him or hold him back."

After speaking, Uzumaki Sora glanced at the two of them and chuckled softly: "The yin and yang of this world have always been interdependent. Yin and yang wax and wane while also restraining each other. Uchiha Yun is still my equal in strength."

As he spoke, Sora looked at Nagato and smiled, "The Akatsuki's expenses aren't high; it's always the Rain Village that's spending so much. Let's hurry up. When the plan begins, that's when I'll tell you that secret."

As soon as he finished speaking, Vortex Kong disappeared into the tower.

After a long silence, Nagato spoke, "He knows information about the past, but it seems he doesn't know everything about the future."

Xiao Nan shook her head slightly: "The future is never static. Every small decision can affect a series of future events. Or perhaps what he can see is only a part of the future."

After a moment of contemplation, Nagato looked at Konan and said, "Just like back then, if that rock on the cliff had been loosened, we might not have survived to see Jiraiya-sensei."

"No... According to the information Uzumaki Sora provided, my fate seems to have been predetermined when these eyes were implanted."

At this moment, Nagato's hands were clenched tightly.

Was it a predetermined fate?

The real Madara Uchiha?

This is not the fate I accept!

……

Meanwhile, in the dark cave.

At that moment, Black Zetsu's hoarse voice rang out: "You're being suspected!"

Obito replied in a deep voice, "From the very beginning, they had doubts about my identity as Uchiha Madara."

"No."

Black Zetsu denied it, saying, "This time it's not just suspicion. Nagato and the others... must have already confirmed that you are not my true form."

In an instant, Obito looked up sharply: "They...have confirmed my identity?"

Uchiha Obito...

Compared to Madara Uchiha, this identity brought far less pressure.

Furthermore, Obito currently has no intention of reviving Madara Uchiha.

Of course, before that, we need to eliminate any potential problems in the heart area, and then...

Obito stared directly at Black Zetsu: "Did Uzumaki Sora tell them?"

Black Zetsu shook his head slightly: "I don't know that. After the battle at the Sea of ​​End, Uzumaki Sora met with Nagato's main body. As for this meeting, because of the barrier, White Zetsu didn't get any information."

"Perhaps... it's also possible that your performance during the battle at the Sea of ​​the End aroused their suspicions. In this case, they might not know Obito's true identity, but denying Madara Uchiha's identity is inevitable."

As Black Zetsu's voice faded, Obito frowned slightly and remained indifferent.

The existence of Vortex Sora has seriously affected his plans.

But now... it seems that only Uzumaki Sora can help him.

The existence of that trading space, where one could use a wolf to devour a tiger, seems to be unknown to Xiao.

As for Uchiha Kumo, who is an enemy, he will certainly not agree to Uzumaki Sora's deal.

"Let's go, we need to go to Konoha."

Black Zetsu's lips curled up, revealing a sliver of white: "As your and my true selves' descendants, only after recognizing the true darkness of this world can he understand where the path to peace truly lies. And we are the ones who guide him."

Immediately afterward, Obito disappeared into the space, while Black Zetsu beside him slowly sank into the ground.

In the dark depths of the earth, Black Zetsu's gaze was incredibly solemn.

For thousands of years... never in thousands of years have we come so close to success as we are now.

This time, no one can stop me, not even that Vortex Sora!

With that kind of intelligence capability, he might know everything about himself behind the Eye of the Moon project.

However, as an enemy, Uchiha Kumo of Konoha would certainly not make a deal with him. Only under such circumstances could Uchiha Kumo become a tool for him to eliminate Uzumaki Sora.

At this moment, Black Zetsu remembered a sentence that Uzumaki Sora said when he first joined Akatsuki.

He made a deal with Hashirama Senju, the First Hokage, who was in the Pure Land...

How exactly was such a transaction completed?

Wood Release, Mangekyou Sharingan, Flying Thunder God Technique...

So many abilities, yet none of them seem to involve a deal with Uchiha Kumo. The eye technique that instantly heals injuries—such an ability wasn't present in Uzumaki Sora during the battle at the Sea of ​​the End.

At last……

If that doesn't work, the only option is to revive Madara ahead of schedule.

Only Madara is the one person who completely trusts him. As the embodiment of his will, no one doubts his will.

No matter what, no one can stop him from rescuing his mother, not even the descendants of those two unfilial sons!

Feathered Robe...

The ninja world you created will ultimately become the power of the mother!

……

At the same time, Uzumaki Sora, who had just opened his eyes, stood up, looked at Biwa Juzo, and said, "Let's go. Our first target is the rogue ninja from Iwagakure."

Following behind, Juzo Biwa asked curiously, "Was that a summons from the leader? Just one-on-one? Was there any additional mission?"

After being asked three questions in a row, Kong stopped walking.

He turned to look at Juzo Biwa: "You seem to be asking a lot of questions lately..."

Pipa Juzo hoisted the Executioner's Blade onto his shoulder and casually said, "It's just out of curiosity. If there's a mission along the way, we might be able to do it."

Sora's gaze held a mocking tone: "Perhaps you still haven't grasped my intelligence. Have the people of Kirigakure found you yet?"

? ? ! !

For a moment, Juzo Biwa froze on the spot.

Uzumaki Sora continued, "The time the Five Great Shinobi Villages met? They approached you again, initially wanting information about me, right?"

"Then... they heard I joined an organization. So, they immediately started asking for information about the Akatsuki."

As the words fell, the body of the person opposite him, Juzo Biwa, trembled slightly.

How is that possible?

How could they know everything so clearly?

The transmission of intelligence was unpredictable, and I was always cautious and careful.

but……

Uzumaki Sora smiled: "The Blood Mist Village of the past caused you to lose your faith in Kirigakure and become a rogue ninja. But the fault doesn't lie with you; all the fault lies with the guy who manipulated the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura."

……

(Regarding the warning about Black Zetsu, there's a brief mention at the end of chapter 174. The Akatsuki organization was unaware of the existence of the trading space, but Uzumaki Sora mentioned the Pure Land trading.)

(However, it should be noted that Uchiha Yun is an enemy, and his regenerative abilities were not replicated. Therefore, Black Zetsu's assertion that Uchiha Yun is unaware of his true identity is valid.)

(After the battle at the Sea of ​​Ends, it was a secret meeting between Uzumaki Sora and Nagato that led Black Zetsu to decide to use someone else to eliminate Uzumaki Sora. He was worried that everyone would know of his existence.)

……

I wanted to resume my daily dose today, but it seems I overestimated my willpower. I'm taking Contac, but I still have a low-grade fever.

I'll see if I can write another chapter during the day and resume daily updates of 10,000 words.
