Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan.

Chapter 289 What...are you worried about?

"It seems he understands that their strength is currently the weakest among the three parties."

Yun looked at Kakashi, who was slumped on the ground, and laughed: "It's been so many years, but you still haven't gotten used to the strain on this eye. It's almost used up again as soon as you came out."

Kakashi, panting, leaned against a tree trunk: "Even in the three-tomoe state, the Mangekyou Sharingan's power puts a great strain on the body with each use."

At this point, Kakashi looked at Yun: "You knew all along too?"

Yun glanced at the figures not far away, smiled, and did not answer the question.

Then, Minato walked over and shared some information about the operation with the three Kage.

"Obito Uchiha... So there was a reason why your Second Hokage of Konoha imposed restrictions on the Uchiha clan back then."

Onoki glanced at the clouds not far away as he spoke: "Some things are not meant to belittle you or sow discord among you, but at a time like this, if Konoha falls into chaos, Iwagakure will cease to exist as well."

"The Madara Uchiha of the past, the Obito Uchiha of today. Their power comes from emotions, but it is precisely because of this that... they lose faith in the world because of the loss of emotions."

Darui, standing nearby, added in a deep voice, "Is Kakashi the only way to counter that ability that can nullify attacks?"

Minato shook his head slightly: "Five minutes, continuous attacks for five minutes, is the key to breaking through the opponent's ability. But now... that method is difficult to achieve."

As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed that everyone's eyes were on him.

Minato explained, "The opponent's abilities are not limited to this. Based on Yun's speculation during the incident in the Land of Iron, and this time, it has been confirmed that the opponent also possesses the ability to foresee the future."

"Predicting the future?! Yet another one?"

Mei Terumi's exclamation rang out; merely knowing the word "foresee" reminded her of Sora Uzumaki.

In the world of ninjas, intelligence plays a very important role. Anyone who can understand the secrets of a ninja can naturally make corresponding arrangements.

These are also one of the reasons why everyone is so wary of Uzumaki Sora.

Minato shook his head: "No. It's not like Uzumaki Sora's ability to see all secrets. If I had to explain it, it would be that I can see what happens two or three seconds later. Of course, that two or three seconds isn't even accurate."

Onoki, standing to the side, frowned slightly: "Can you be sure it's a prophecy, and not an enhancement of the Sharingan's dynamic vision?"

"Whoosh..."

Minato waved his hand and threw out three Flying Thunder God kunai, which landed in three locations not far away.

"I'm sure you're all familiar with the Flying Thunder God Technique, so now do you know which of these three coordinates I'll appear at?"

Darui shook his head: "A one-third probability isn't worth guessing. If I could, I'd use Lightning Release Chakra Mode to see if I could keep up with your speed."

Nodding, Minato looked at Darui: "If the Fourth Raikage's speed is indeed enough to keep up with my Flying Thunder God Technique, then Obito can launch a ninjutsu directly at the location where I will reappear the moment I disappear."

After speaking, Minato looked at the others and said, "This situation only means that the opponent has similar abilities. To break through, we need to disrupt their own battle rhythm."

Combat rhythm?

For a moment, Onoki and the others were stunned.

After a long silence, Onoki finally spoke, asking, "Breaking the usual rhythm, the next move and location are decided in the last instant. Only in this way can this ability be broken, right?"

Minato nodded slightly: "Lord Tsuchikage is right. The method to break this was told to me by Yun, but it should have originated from a sentence by Uzumaki Sora."

"The future is never static. From the moment the future is spoken of, the original future begins to change. Therefore, when we make new decisions, the originally predicted future is wrong."

"We don't yet know what limitations the opponent's ability has. If we could find out how often this ability can be activated, then we could use targeted combat tactics to disable it."

Mei Terumi hesitated for a moment before asking, "Then why wouldn't it be an instantaneous ability?"

Onoki glanced at her: "If it's instantaneous, then the method the Hokage mentioned to counter it is useless. But since the Hokage mentioned it, it must have already worked."

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone understood the cause and effect relationship involved.

Then Minato exhaled and looked into the distance: "Although they have nearly 100,000 troops, what truly threatens me is still the Akatsuki organization."

The expressions on their faces also darkened instantly.

dawn……

Uzumaki Sora, and Nagato, who possesses the Rinnegan. These two alone are enough to threaten the entire world.

Darui sighed, "I'm sorry, but what I'm about to say might sound a bit discouraging. Perhaps Uzumaki Sora has enough information about the limitations of Obito's prophetic abilities."

Onoki looked at Darui: "Does Lord Raikage mean that the target of the next transaction with Uzumaki Sora should propose this information exchange?"

Mei Terumi, who was standing to the side, understood at that moment as well.

"The number of transactions has already been too many. Even if we inform them in advance not to trade, we still can't stop them, can we?"

"Everyone has their own obsessions. Even in Konoha, despite being warned, people will still make deals in order to get the answers they want."

Minato smiled helplessly: "That's just how it is. Transactions are unavoidable, so we might as well maximize our intelligence on the transactions."

At this point, Kakashi, who had recovered somewhat, was able to stand up with difficulty.

Uchiha Yun, who had been watching him, also came over at this moment: "The rest of you should go back and discuss this later. In any case, we need a solution for the safety of the Jinchuriki and the village."

……

In the Land of Rain, at a certain shrine.

"Jiraiya went to Amegakure again."

Uzumaki Sora looked at Nagato and asked, "So? How about we meet?"

Nagato stared indifferently at the clay sculpture before him: "Our differing philosophies mean that it's impossible for you and I to walk the same path. Whether we meet or not makes no difference."

Uzumaki Sora nodded: "Jiraiya is an idealist. Although he won't be merciful on the battlefield because of his identity as a ninja, his personality makes him suitable to play a positive role in the new world."

Nagato was silent for a moment: "Those two years were indeed the happiest two years for the three of us. But as for the teacher, I don't really feel much gratitude."

"I'm different from Yahiko. As for the Konoha ninja, my parents died at their hands. Now it seems... it might also be Madara Uchiha's doing."

At this point, Nagato looked at Sora Uzumaki: "When I was wandering, I witnessed many tragic things. And all of these... were caused by war."

"That's why... I want to fulfill Yahiko's will and bring true peace to this world."

Uzumaki Sora smiled. "We will succeed. After all... I also want to be able to live in this world, or even live better."

At that moment, Konan walked in from outside the shrine.

"Deidara and Hidan fought, and those two are getting restless again."

Hearing this, Nagato frowned: "The Sand Village's operation just ended, and it's already starting again?"

Uzumaki Sora waved his hand, "It's precisely because they went out that their declaration of war against the Five Great Shinobi Villages has made them a bit excited."

Nagato looked at Uzumaki Sora: "But according to your idea, after Obito and Black Zetsu hide in the shadows, we also need to lie low to avoid being used by them."

Uzumaki Sora replied, "That's true. But on that basis, it's still necessary to let them go out and cause some trouble to attract the attention of the five great ninja villages."

"In the three Shinobi World Wars over the past few decades, cooperation has begun initially under our pressure, but in reality, this cooperation is very fragile."

"If there is a single instance of unfair treatment or an unexpected event, and there is no external pressure in the short term, this cooperation will fall apart."

Upon hearing this, Nagato fell silent.

Xiao Nan, who was standing to the side, hesitated for a moment before finally asking, "I actually don't quite understand..."

Sora looked at Konan, and their eyes met.

"Currently, in the entire ninja world, only you and your true form possess power surpassing that of ninjas. With such immense power, why don't we just begin our final plan?"

"The fighting forces of Sunagakure and Kirigakure have been eliminated. Konoha has Uchiha Kumo, and given the Fourth Hokage's personality, we can put them aside for now. But what's left are Kumogakure and Iwagakure."

"With our strength, if we can finish this quickly... even if your main body arrives, it will only be one battle."

As Konan finished speaking, Nagato, who was standing to the side, was also looking at Uzumaki Sora.

After a long pause, Nagato also spoke up, saying, "This is also my question."

Nagato stroked his eyes as he spoke: "Although the Rinnegan belongs to Madara Uchiha, these eyes are inside my body. You said that the Impure World Reincarnation technique he used didn't possess the original power..."

"What...are you worried about?"

What are you worried about?

Uzumaki Sora looked at the two people in front of him and exhaled.

What am I worried about? Besides aliens, what else could I be worried about?

The hidden clues buried in the original work, the origin of Kaguya Otsutsuki—these are not things from Boruto.

After the Rinnegan and Tenseigan are formed, their special powers are already capable of sealing Black Zetsu, serving as a medium to prevent future troubles.

But what happens after that?

Even Kaguya herself wasn't entirely confident in dealing with the enemies behind her.

……

Thoughts raced through his mind, and Uzumaki Sora looked at the two people in front of him and said, "There are still too many powers in this world that you don't know about."

Upon hearing this, Nagato asked, "The old man you mentioned before?"

Kong shook his head slightly: "If it's just him, there's no need to be so nervous. Because no matter what his plans are, he's ultimately a positive force in this world. And our goal is actually only different from his in terms of the process."

???

For a moment, Nagato and Konan were stunned.

They had never doubted Sora's intelligence capabilities, but from what he just said, it was clear that there were enemies in this world even stronger than the Sage of Six Paths.

How is that possible?!

At this moment, Sora sighed, "Even now, there are many things I'm still unsure about. Because even if I could see the future, that future might no longer be accurate."

For the first time, the two heard such inaccurate words from Uzumaki Sora.

Accuracy of intelligence has always been a hallmark of Vortex Sky.

What kind of enemy is it?

For a long time, the scene remained silent.

Neither of them said anything more after that. Xiao Nan left to give tasks to the two guys who were fighting over art and doctrine.

Just as Sora was about to leave, Nagato spoke up, saying, "There's something I think I should tell you beforehand."

Vortex Sora turned around and looked back.

Nagato then said, "When true peace arrives, I will use the Samsara Rebirth Technique to revive Yahiko..."

Sora replied, "I already knew this beforehand. To resurrect the dead at the cost of one's own life—you wanted Yahiko to see true peace..."

Nagato nodded, then looked at Uzumaki Sora: "Your appearance... is too similar to Yahiko's. Sora... I think you understand what I mean."

???

What does it mean? What do you mean?

Kong was a little confused, but to maintain his composure, he nodded and replied, "I understand."

……

The Iron Country, beneath the borders.

"Back then, my original body reminded you that the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan can only be unleashed when two of them are together."

Black Zetsu's voice was already filled with suppressed anger.

However, Obito, standing to the side, didn't seem to care much. Instead, he said with dissatisfaction, "What's the use of saying all this now? In that situation, if I had brought out the One-Tailed Jinchuriki again, you, me, and the 100,000 White Zetsu would have been exposed once more."

The rebuttal silenced Black Zetsu.

At this point, Obito's importance has become very significant.

After a long pause, Black Zetsu finally spoke, "Even without being exposed, the Land of Iron is no longer safe. We need to find another place and wait for an opportunity..."

Obito nodded, then crushed the mask in his hand: "Let's wait for the opportunity... It's not time to react to the Three-Tails' resurgence yet."

As Obito watched Black Zetsu slowly sink, the Mangekyou Sharingan appeared in his eyes.

Why didn't the Sage of Six Paths unleash the Infinite Tsukuyomi himself, instead scattering the nine tailed beasts throughout the ninja world...?

These two questions kept echoing in Obito's mind.

I've visited the stone tablet at the Uchiha clan's Naga Shrine many times.

The information left on it can only be partially seen by those with the Mangekyou Sharingan. Even with Hashirama's cells, only after his eye power is restored can he see the end.

Who else could leave such a message besides the legendary Sage of Six Paths?
