Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan.

Chapter 433 Obito's Horrified Moment

Tobi is Obito, a man who calls himself Madara Uchiha, but is merely a remnant of the Uchiha clan.

When the Uchiha clan was wiped out, according to Itachi Uchiha, Nagato and Konan were able to know the power of the person in front of them.

A single sound was enough to send the guy who had the ability to nullify all attacks fleeing in disarray.

In addition, as he just said, Obito Uchiha was also just a pawn.

So, to whom does this chess piece belong?

The Rinnegan belongs to Madara Uchiha, but Madara has not yet been resurrected, and Obito Uchiha probably wouldn't use the Rinne Rebirth technique to sacrifice himself for Madara.

Therefore... the next actions of Akatsuki, or even Obito Uchiha, are probably all under the control of the person in front of us.

Uchiha Yun looked at Konan: "I've always felt that you might be more suitable than the other two to be the leader of Akatsuki."

Konan frowned at these words, wanting to refute them, but the current situation was clear: both Yahiko's and Nagato's wills had failed.

At that moment, Nagato looked at the drizzle outside: "Jiraiya-sensei said back then... as long as people can..."

Trust? Opening your heart? Understanding each other?

Uchiha Yun's voice interrupted him: "Even establishing trust between two people is incredibly difficult, let alone between the entire world?"

Nagato frowned deeply. "I failed, yet you say my first part was correct. Then please tell me, how can the world achieve true peace?"

For a moment, both of their gazes turned to the mysterious person they had just met...

"You have come to understand the true nature of this world because of Hanzo's betrayal. Therefore, we can find a way to achieve lasting peace by studying the history of the past."

Yun leaned against the wooden wall behind him: "In the early days of the ninja village system, the First Hokage, known as the God of Shinobi, knelt before the other four Kage at the First Five Kage Summit, praying for peace..."

"Do you think the reason the four great ninja villages didn't engage in a ninja world war before the First Hokage's death was because of this kneeling plea... or something else?"

As soon as he finished speaking, both of them were stunned.

Although they once proclaimed themselves gods, neither Nagato nor Konan knew about this part of history.

After a long pause, Konan finally spoke: "If the previous Akatsuki had possessed the great power of the First Hokage, or if Nagato at that time had... the power to overturn everything, they would naturally be respected."

Yun chuckled lightly: "That kneeling was, in fact, meaningless. It only made the four great ninja villages understand the bottom line of the God of Shinobi, allowing them to prepare for war even more recklessly."

"The best proof is when the captured tailed beasts were distributed to the five great ninja villages. The First Hokage wanted to give them to them, the Second Hokage wanted to sell them, but at that time the Kazekage made a request."

There was a hint of mockery in Uchiha Yun's eyes.

"The Kazekage proposed that the Land of Wind should have a tailed beast, so they don't need a tailed beast, but they do need a fertile land in the Land of Fire."

Nagato then spoke up, "Resources. The Land of Wind is located in the desert, and the constant sandstorms and desertification have made their resources very scarce."

"Oh? You're starting to use your brain now."

Uchiha Yun looked over: "So if it were you, what would you choose? The First Hokage, a god of ninja, knelt down and begged you to maintain peace, but the population of Sunagakure has gradually increased since the end of the Warring States period, and the number of ninjas is increasing every year."

"Ninjas don't engage in production, Konoha is cutting off a large number of mission assignments, and the Land of Wind's daimyo is unwilling to increase financial support due to insufficient income. In this situation, what should you, as the Kazekage, do?"

How to do it?

Nagato was stunned for a moment, and Konan also frowned deeply.

This historical event made them more deeply involved and eager to find a solution.

Perhaps true peace lies hidden in the words of the person before us.

"The increase in the number of ninjas is inevitable, and this also represents an increase in the village's power. And with increased power, one naturally needs to acquire what one needs."

Nagato exhaled: "And so... war became unavoidable. Even if the First Hokage knelt and begged, the Kazekage had countless people relying on him. There was no solution to this situation."

Konan followed up, saying, "But even the First Shinobi World War broke out after the First Hokage died. So even if they weren't afraid, the First Hokage's bottom line was peace, so they had to make peace."

Between the two questions and answers, they looked at each other, and it seemed that some past issues were now clearly visible.

But what followed was what happened next.

"life……"

Konan looked up at the clouds: "Even the legendary Sage of Six Paths eventually died when his lifespan ended. The God of Shinobi will also die one day."

"The sharp blades hanging overhead withdrew, and the power accumulated by all the ninja villages began to erupt. The intervals between the First Shinobi World War, the Second Shinobi World War, and even the Third Shinobi World War were extremely short!"

Yun nodded slightly, then looked at Nagato: "As a sharp blade hanging over the five great ninja villages, this is the first half of your life. But people always die, and decades of peace will only bring about an even larger war later on."

"So... what needs to be addressed is not just the existence of the sharp blade, but also resources, and the easing of interpersonal relationships."

"Trust is such a precious thing, but if the five great ninja villages have an enemy that they can only fight by uniting together, then the easing of tensions among the new generation becomes inevitable."

"For me to be your friend, it's not just about the hatred of the past fading away and having a common enemy that makes us sworn brothers; it's also about your existence not affecting my most basic survival!"

Your existence... cannot affect my survival?

resource……

Resources are the root of all problems. When resources are insufficient, using the strength already available to seize more becomes the most correct choice.

The title is: For the Village!

So how can we solve the resource problem?

"ha……"

Uchiha Yun stood up and stretched: "The Fourth Shinobi World War is inevitable. The shinobi world needs to cleanse itself of all past hatred and also needs to create a bond among the lower and middle levels of the five great shinobi villages."

"And after that, I hope you can continue to be the dark side of this world. A major purge requires constant pressure afterward."

"And when everything is on track and dawn breaks, the light of day should fade away."

"Stay here and think things through carefully, about the future of this world..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Yun disappeared from the spot, leaving only Nagato and Konan with furrowed brows.

After going around in circles, it seems the two have finally returned to where they started, the place that once held the dreams of the three of them.

It was still a wooden house, with simple furniture.

In the darkness, the two seemed to sense a familiar figure behind them, the one who used to always spout nonsense.

……

The commotion prompted the joint search and rescue team to take action. After reinforcements arrived, the combined forces of the five great ninja villages launched an attack on Amegakure.

Without the Akatsuki, the resistance of Amegakure crumbled at the first sign of trouble. Even the Amegakure ninja, who were grateful to the angels, eventually revealed all the information under duress.

But in the end, the five great ninja villages gained nothing from the tower.

Aside from knowing that Amegakure had been secretly controlled by the Akatsuki for many years, not a single Akatsuki member had been captured.

But soon, a piece of intelligence appeared in the Hokage Building in Konoha.

With the formation of the Allied Shinobi Forces, Tsunade, as the commander-in-chief, immediately initiated the Five Kage Summit.

[Underground in the mountainous graveyard on the northern border of the Land of Iron, a White Zetsu with a combat strength approaching that of an ordinary Chunin: 100,000.]

Chunin combat power... 100,000?

After the five Kage reviewed this intelligence, everyone frowned.

Although Chunin are not considered strong by them, they are clearly the backbone of the force and constitute the largest number of people in that tier.

The total number of ninjas that the five great ninja villages could send out probably didn't even equal that number.

"Where did the intelligence come from?"

"Hyuga Tokuma, a member of a branch family of the Hyuga clan, discovered a suspicious target during a search in the Land of Iron, using his Byakugan ability to detect it."

"One hundred thousand..."

"This quantity is truly unexpected..."

Tsunade glanced at the four Kage at the round table: "Not only that, Orochimaru's Impure World Reincarnation technique may also have formidable combat power at the higher levels."

Impure World Reincarnation...

After the alliance was formed, intelligence was naturally shared during the battle in Konoha.

Of course, the one who put the most pressure on everyone was Hashirama Senju, the First Hokage resurrected through Edo Tensei.

"Bang bang".

Tapping the table, Onoki looked at the four of them: "At first, I thought this war would only be a scene of deception and trickery, but now it seems that perhaps we all have to let go of the past in order to win this victory."

"The First Hokage, known as the God of Shinobi, was unmatched in the entire shinobi world during the battle at the Valley of the End. However, the Impure World Reincarnation is a technique, and there are always ways to counter it."

"But now, adding the number 100,000...we..."

Mei Terumi, who had just received the Fifth Mizukage's hat from Genji not long ago, spoke up: "I'm sorry... I don't seem to see any possibility of winning."

Gaara wasn't discouraged, but still said, "The Impure World Reincarnation technique... we can't confirm it yet. So far, the enemy's high-ranking forces are still only this many..."

"After all... people who die by summoning the flesh and blood of the dead, whether it's Orochimaru or the masked guy in the intelligence, can be easily obtained beforehand."

After he finished speaking, everyone fell silent for a moment.

After a long while, Tsunade looked at the Fourth Raikage: "Has Naruto finished his training?"

The Fourth Raikage raised his head: "Stealing the Nine-Tails' chakra mode is easy, but becoming a perfect Jinchuriki requires a catalyst."

Upon hearing this, Tsunade sighed. After receiving this information, she also felt a strong sense of disparity.

His hands clenched tightly, he asked again, "Sasuke and that person... still haven't made contact? Or is it Uchiha Izumi?"

These words made the Fourth Raikage's eyes twitch, a mocking expression flashing across his face.

Faced with such immense pressure, having witnessed the power of the reanimated First Hokage, he had to suppress his mocking thoughts.

"no."

The Fourth Raikage exhaled: "After appearing in Konoha once before, he disappeared again. Neither Sasuke nor Izumi could contact him."

"Furthermore... judging from his attitude during his conversation with Sasuke, he probably doesn't care much about the Infinite Tsukuyomi either."

I don't care...

The five figures all lowered their heads and pondered for a moment.

Fighting is the only option.

As high-ranking members, the fact that death would ultimately result from a massive illusion was something they simply could not accept.

However, the odds of success are too slim, so we must be extremely cautious when making a plan.

As for the one the Hokage and Raikage were talking about, they knew there was no need to hide it, because no one knew where that person was or what they were doing.

"Bang bang".

After the knocking, Lu Jiu, Qing, and a few others came in and handed over the latest battle plan.

Ultimately, the five Kage agreed, and the Fourth Shinobi World War began!

……

Deep underground in the shadows.

Obito Uchiha left the Land of Iron and began his escape by traveling underground and using a combination of interdimensional travel.

Although the Fourth Shinobi World War was announced in a high-profile manner, all the plans became meaningless after that person appeared.

The opponent with those eyes among the 100,000 White Zetsu is probably just a Super Planetary Devastation.

The opponent was unable to resist, but he had no idea what abilities they possessed.

In a horizontal comparison, one can only sense the other party's unfathomable depth.

Possessing the Rinnegan with its tomoe marks—this is likely a power surpassing even that of the Sage of Six Paths. What are the First Hokage and Madara Uchiha compared to that?

Only... only by becoming the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki, only with such power, could one perhaps reach the same level.

Escape from here and avoid them.

This guy isn't from this world. The only way is to hide like Black Zetsu, avoid his attention, and wait for an opportunity.

The Rinnegan has been obtained, and the Gedo Mazo Ten-Tails is only a little short of being able to be revived.

If we wait until the five great ninja villages relax, or even if they start fighting amongst themselves, the chances of obtaining the Eight-Tails and the Nine-Tails will be very high.

Orochimaru can also make another deal to obtain the Nine-Tails' chakra from the Fourth Hokage.

As long as that person can't find me, as long as they're not paying attention to me at this moment...

"You've been running around for three days. At first, I thought you were looking for materials for the Impure World Reincarnation. Are you trying to hide by wandering all over the ninja world like this?"

(○Д○)

Frightened!

The familiar voice froze Obito, who had been transported to another dimension, in place.

On the cube-shaped stone, Obito, beneath the white mask, slowly turned around and saw a very familiar person standing right behind him.

How could this be?! How could it still be discovered?

Why couldn't I escape when that bastard Black Zetsu hid for so many years?

This guy has been eyeing me from the very beginning!

Bastard! Shit!

Why?

"What...do you want to do?"

……
