Konoha: The Soul King from the Uchiha Clan

Chapter 141 Are you mocking me?

This scene is the first time it has happened among the Hidden Mist ninjas, but it will certainly not be the last, and it will happen every day in the future.

Every day, he would send out half of his soul to run a errand, using the Spirit Transformation Technique to control the Hidden Mist Ninja and harvest their souls.

Uchiha Gen has already decided to treat it as a daily task.

The Chunin from Kirigakure was instantly taken from control of his body, and his soul and lifespan were absorbed by Uchiha Gen's soul due to the fear he felt.

Because everything happens within the consciousness space and inside the body, only ninjas who are extremely skilled in sensory ninjutsu can detect anything amiss.

To avoid Kirigakure withdrawing prematurely due to excessive losses, Uchiha Gen overcame his own greed with great willpower and devised a conservative harvesting plan.

In one month, I harvested the souls of sixty genin, six chunin, and one jonin.

Today was the first time, so Uchiha Gen went a little overboard. From now on, he will have to strictly follow the plan.

The Hidden Mist Village has over 1,400 ninjas at the front lines, including more than 20 Jonin, over 300 Chunin, and around 1,200 Genin.

Aside from non-combatants, barring any unforeseen circumstances, they can reap the rewards steadily for quite some time.

A week passed in this way, and the slight increase in casualties due to Uchiha Gen's intervention did not attract the attention of the high-ranking officials at the Kirigakure front.

At noon that day, on a mountain peak not far from the Konoha camp, a spatial vortex distorted the flying snow and cold winds at the summit, and two figures emerged from the mountaintop.

One figure wore a black robe and a white mask with black patterns, while another figure was entirely white with green algae-like hair.

"Tobi, summon the White Zetsu who are monitoring Konoha."

"no problem."

The White Zetsu named A-Fei closed his eyes, then opened them a moment later and said, "All done."

Two breaths later, four White Zetsu emerged from a patch of snow on the mountaintop. Beneath the snow was soil, not cold, hard rock.

"How is the target you were monitoring doing lately?"

Obito Uchiha hung his arms at his sides, letting the cold wind blow his clothes, his voice calm and indifferent.

"The target was recently promoted to vice commander and spends most of his time at the camp, rarely leaving," a White Zetsu replied.

"Vice Commander?"

"Pretty capable. In just two years, he's risen from a lowly genin to this level. Even Kakashi couldn't become a vice commander."

Beneath the mask, Obito Uchiha's lips curled slightly, a half-smile playing on his lips.

"What's so special about a mere deputy commander?"

"You don't need to envy him; you're better than him now."

"Your every move is stirring up the ninja world and making ninja history!"

Afei thought Obito was feeling inferior, so he offered words of comfort.

Obito Uchiha: "..."

"Don't try to comfort me, I'm not that fragile."

"Power, status, and achievements are not important; what matters is peace, peace with Lin in it."

"What's the situation around the target?"

"Located in the heart of the Konoha camp, it is shrouded in a sensory barrier and heavily guarded, and is also protected by summoning beasts."

"The target's summoned beast is strange; it seems to have no time limit for summoning and does not need to return to its living environment."

"Keep a close watch on the target, and report to me immediately once the target leaves the village."

"Yes."

After the four White Zetsu left, Abi said, "With a summoning beast guarding us, this is a bit troublesome."

"Otherwise, with your strength, a surprise attack shouldn't be too difficult to take them down..."

Obito said nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter. He can't escape my grasp anyway. It's more fun outside."

"As the worst-performing member of the Uchiha clan, I'd really like to experience the strength of a Uchiha genius."

Ah Fei smirked and said, "That's just your twisted sense of humor."

"I just finished dealing with Yagura and Mitsui, I'm a bit tired, so I'll take a break."

"I hope you don't go too far."

"Don't worry, he's not Minato Namikaze."

Even if things go wrong, there will be other opportunities in the future.

"Even if we take a step back and do nothing, we can always target the other three-tomoe Jonin of the Uchiha clan."

"The Uchiha clan has quite a few three-tomoe jade pendants."

After saying that, Obito Uchiha put his hand on Tobi's shoulder, and a spatial vortex appeared, quickly sucking the two of them into the Kamui dimension.

A few more days passed, and Obito Uchiha still hadn't received any news from White Zetsu, so he started to get impatient.

……

In Kirigakure's office, the Mizukage was handling official business when Yagura Karatachi suddenly froze, and the next moment, Obito and Tobi appeared through a spatial vortex...

Obito casually sat cross-legged on the Mizukage's desk, picked up a cup of still-warm coffee, and took a sip after removing his mask.

Bai Jue also casually sat down on the desk, and the two of them seemed to be back at home, relaxed and at ease.

"How about we have White Zetsu go to the trouble of obtaining the chakra of two Konoha Jonin to lure the target out of the camp?"

Obito was somewhat tempted by this, but then shook his head after thinking about it: "There is a certain possibility of failure."

"After all, the target is the vice commander, who is the superior of a Konoha Jonin. The initiative is in his hands."

"However, you did give me a suggestion. What do you think about having White Zetsu disguise himself as an envoy from Konoha, conveying special orders from the village's higher-ups?"

After a moment's thought, Afei understood the subtlety of the matter.

"This method is excellent; there's virtually no risk of failure."

"The target can't possibly ignore the orders from Konoha's higher-ups, can he?"

Obito took another sip of coffee, rubbed his chin with his left hand, and said, "I think it's good too."

"Just to be on the safe side, Yagura won't have anyone make the Konoha Anbu uniforms. I'll personally go to the Konoha Anbu and get a set myself, to ensure the target won't notice anything amiss."

"Obito, you're so clever."

"You're so much more mature and intelligent than when you were first taken in," Ah Fei exclaimed, his eyes lighting up.

Upon hearing this, Obito glared at Tobi. Back then, Tobi wasn't stupid, he was just too naive, hot-blooded, and kind.

Ah Fei shrank back, gave an embarrassed laugh, and asked, "Where are you planning to choose?"

"Um……"

"I remember there's a place called Red Moon Lake near the Konoha front-line camp."

"The mountains surrounding this lake are all covered with maple trees. When autumn comes, the mountains turn red and reflect the lake in a crimson hue, making it look like a lake burning with flames."

"Let's set up the location here. Once we get the target's eyes, we'll sink him to the bottom of the lake."

"For the sake of our kinship and classmates, let him have a magnificent and beautiful burial place."

"This also fits the hallmarks of the Uchiha clan's Sharingan and Fire Release techniques, making it an absolutely auspicious burial ground."

"You've gone to so much trouble, Obito, you're really kind," Tobi exclaimed.

Obito: "???"

"Are you mocking me?" Obito said with a dark face.

"No, that's really what I think."

"real?"

"real!"

"Heh, the brain circuits of you White Zetsu are really strange."

"Although I think it doesn't matter who dies, since they will all be resurrected in the new world without conflict, I can't consider myself merciful."

"Alright, let me solidify Yagura's control, then we'll get started."

"it is good."

Obito put down his coffee cup, turned around, and the three tomoe in his right eye transformed into a slowly rotating triangular scythe.

A powerful and dark power of vision surged into Yagura's consciousness through his eyes, and the slightly loosened control tightened once again.

The next moment, Obito Uchiha grabbed Tobi and entered the spatial vortex, while Yagura lowered his head and mechanically processed the documents according to his usual habits.

As for whether the instructions were appropriate?

That's not important!

Obito and Tobi acted swiftly, and the operation against Uchiha Gen began a day later.
