Revitalizing the Uchiha clan starts with becoming a Kage.

Just by seeing Yuan Shi's demeanor, Jiang Si was certain of Yuan Shi's resolve. It was not a difficult question to guess. For Kirigakure and for Yuan Shi, this was a moment when a decision had to be made.

"Well, I'll have to trouble you today, Mr. Jiang Si, to make the trip with this old man. I might need your help then. If everything goes smoothly, aside from what you mentioned before, I can also offer you a substantial reward on behalf of Kirigakure!"

Each party's interests are one thing, but the attitude that should be adopted is another.

Even though Master Yuan is nearly eighty years old, he still understands this point very clearly.

"Hehe, of course, after all, it involves the most important issue of our Uchiha clan!"

Jiang Si's lips curled slightly, forming a beautiful arc.

"Then let's go, Mr. Jiang Si."

"Yes!"

This temporary alliance is for the sake of a common goal.

Humans are complex beings in many ways, but at certain crucial moments they can be simple and straightforward.

Although Jiang Si could see that Yuan Shi and Qing were wary and apprehensive about him, Jiang Si remained unconcerned. One reason was that he genuinely had no excessive intentions towards Kirigakure at the moment, and the other was that he had full confidence in his own strength.

One person definitely can't take on the entire Hidden Mist Village alone. If he were to get caught up in the Hidden Mist Village's human wave tactics, at most he would be a notch stronger than the Third Raikage. He would be far weaker than his ancestor Madara Uchiha at the peak of his Eternal Eye power, and he would still die.

However, while it's true that he can't fight one-on-one, Jiang Si can still easily inflict heavy damage on Kirigakure and then easily retreat before the enemy can surround him.

Without absolute power to hold the fort, Kirigakure could not possibly retain Shoji.

This is the source of the general's greatest confidence.

410. The Revealed Truth and Obito's Embarrassment (Please Subscribe!)

After all, Master Yuan was the most respected person in Kirigakure.

Aside from the first Mizukage, Byakuren, the three Mizukage who succeeded him were all inferior to Genshi. Genshi, who hadn't left his own territory for a long time, suddenly came to the Mizukage Building today and asked to meet with the fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi.

Even though Obito had long ago controlled the Fourth Mizukage to issue orders that no one was allowed to enter the Mizukage's office without his instructions, not a single Kirigakure ninja dared to stand in his way when facing the Master.

Of course, the Mist Ninja assigned to guard the Mizukage Building were definitely the kind of die-hard loyalists who, even though they knew that their Mizukage seemed to have some problems, still firmly carried out all of their Mizukage's orders.

Although they dared not actually stop the Yuan Shi outside the Mizukage Building, they also wouldn't allow him to easily enter the building. They decided to delay him for a while and then report to their Mizukage. This was the decision made by the guarding Mist Ninja.

"What? Master Yuan?"

"Yes, Lord Mizukage, Master Genji is already waiting downstairs!"

Obito, who had just returned from the mainland a few days ago, planned to control the Mizukage to issue some orders to coordinate with the Akatsuki organization's actions and speed up their plans. Before he could make any arrangements, he was surprised to be visited by the most senior master in Kirigakure.

'Did he finally lose control? Or does he have some other purpose?'

Hidden in the shadows, Obito frowned slightly, deep in thought.

If there's anyone in the vast Hidden Mist Village that Obito needs to be wary of, it's definitely Master Yuan. Because once Master Yuan gets serious, the orders he issues might actually be more effective than the Fourth Mizukage controlled by Obito!

After all, the defeat in the Third Shinobi World War had already weakened the Fourth Mizukage's prestige. In the past two or three years, Obito's control over the Fourth Mizukage's reckless behavior had further alienated many people. With the balance of power shifting, and given the status of the Master of the Ages, Obito had wanted to get rid of this old guy more than once, but he just couldn't find a good opportunity.

For Obito, Kirigakure was both an object of revenge and a perfect tool. A significant portion of the Akatsuki's necessary intelligence, funds, and supplies were provided by the Fourth Mizukage, controlled by Obito!

If possible, Obito would naturally want to control Kirigakure until his organization's tailed beast capture plan is officially launched. That would allow him to capture the Three-Tails and Six-Tails without breaking a sweat, which would be very advantageous for the plan itself. Moreover, Kirigakure's massive military power could be used to fight against the other four great ninja villages, which couldn't be more wonderful.

Therefore, Obito was not as crazy as Tsukasa imagined. He still restrained himself to some extent and left some room for maneuver. Don't be fooled by the fact that Obito seemed very simple and easily fooled before he turned evil. To be fair, Obito was definitely not a fool.

'Alright, let's see what this old man's intentions are first. If things really don't work out, we'll take the risk and kill him here!'

Unable to figure it out for the time being, Obito gave up speculating. In any case, the worst outcome for him was nothing more than another bloody battle. Although it might shake the position of Mizukage under his control, Yagura, as long as it was handled cleanly, the final impact would not be too bad.

Ultimately, Yagura Karatachi is the rightful Mizukage of Kirigakure!

On this point.

Obito could still distinguish them very clearly.

"Go and invite Master Yuan over!"

Without hesitation, Obito immediately controlled the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, to issue the corresponding orders. He then further concealed his presence, as Yagura was a contemporary of Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju. Who knew if this old guy had any special methods of concealment? Obito naturally had to be careful.

However, there's no need to be too nervous. Obito really didn't believe that White Zetsu's Mayfly Technique would be so easily detected by others. Of course, this was also because Obito had no idea that Genji had brought not only Ao, a Kirigakure ninja with the Byakugan, but also Shoji. Both of them had used the Transformation Technique to change their appearance beforehand, so the Kirigakure ninja on guard naturally didn't take it seriously. Obito, who hadn't received the relevant information, naturally couldn't have made any preparations in advance.

They were completely unaware that a crisis was approaching step by step.

Of course, this was also Obito's own fault for being somewhat careless. He thought that Kirigakure was almost under his control and did not actually arrange White Zetsu to monitor the four corners of Kirigakure. Otherwise, even if Shoji could accurately find these White Zetsu, it would still be very difficult to ensure that no information was leaked. Once Obito had the initiative, it was really hard to say what the outcome would be.

However, even if things unfolded that way, it would still be a result that Shoji would be happy to see. Kirigakure is not the target 'currently,' but it will definitely be the target 'in the future.' To be honest, as long as it doesn't affect Shoji's goal of exposing Obito and further striking at the Akatsuki organization.

We can also weaken Kirigakure while we're at it.

The general was absolutely clapping and celebrating.

Genji could roughly guess Shoji's thoughts, which is why he needed to make thorough preparations in advance. This was Kirigakure, not Iwagakure, and certainly not the Uchiha clan's territory. If it were destroyed, Shoji would certainly not care and would even be happy to see it, but Genji could not accept it.

These two are practically playing their cards right; their relationship is purely one of exploitation.

Step into the Water Shadow Building.

A spiral staircase leading upwards.

It was only a few minutes' walk, and we were about to arrive in front of the Water Shadow's office, where the pervasive senses were already present.

"Ho ho!?"

A subtle hint of something was captured from the inside in that instant.

A hint of coldness flashed in Jiang Si's eyes.

"Um!?"

The master in the next seat also immediately gained some insight.

The moment the door was pushed open.

"green!"

The words were spoken in a deep, resonant voice.

"Yes, Master Yuan!"

"Blind eyes!"

The extracted chakra, the transformation technique instantly dispelled, the eyepatch removed, revealing a beautiful eyeball, and the veins bulging in an instant.

"Buzz!"

A chilling aura spread outwards.

"not good!"

It was almost at the same time, or even earlier.

The moment the door was pushed open.

In the inner corner of the office, Obito was also the first to sense the familiar yet powerful fluctuations of chakra.

His expression suddenly changed.

"boom!"

Not only did his own body immediately retreat.

He quickly controlled the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, and unleashed an extremely powerful wave of chakra.

A crimson chakra cloak sweeping upwards.

"Byakugan!? And Uchiha Shoji!? You bastard!"

Realizing that his identity had been completely exposed, Obito no longer hesitated and immediately controlled Yagura Karatachi to unleash the Three-Tails' chakra within him. The terrifying wave that erupted was incredibly powerful and awe-inspiring.

"Crack!"

"boom!"

"Splash!"

The glass that shattered along with the building fell to the ground, reflecting the image of Yagura Karatachi, who was already in a half-tailed beast form in mid-air.

"Lord Mizukage!?"

"This is!?"

"Could it be an enemy attack!?"

"But didn't Master Yuan just go in?!"

It instantly attracted the attention of all the Mist Ninjas around.

"Master Yuan, Lord Mizukage is indeed under the control of genjutsu. Inside Lord Mizukage's body, besides the chakra of Lord Mizukage and the Three-Tails, there is another powerful chakra binding Lord Mizukage and the Three-Tails!"

Unlike the confusion and shock of the ordinary Mist Ninja below, Ao, who had just entered the office, was able to easily find out the true situation of Yagura Karatachi with the help of his Byakugan!

All previous speculations have now been confirmed.

This highly experienced Jonin from Kirigakure also showed a look of shock and anger. He truly couldn't believe that his Mizukage could actually be controlled by someone else!

"Qing, send the signal immediately. We'll need you to help us with Si Jun!"

The Yuan Master standing to the side also had a gloomy expression, and he spoke rapidly.

"Yes, Master Yuan!"

"Haha, leave that to me, Master Yuan!"

After responding, Qing immediately pulled out a signal gun from his pocket, swiftly moved out of the office, and fired a bright red signal flare into the sky.

When Terumi Mei, Seki, and the others on the outer edge saw the signal flare, their expressions tightened, and they immediately led the Mist Ninjas they had gathered in advance to quickly surround the central area.

"Whoosh!"

Jiang Si also burst into laughter.

With a burst of speed, he flew rapidly towards the location of Yagura Karatachi, who was walking side by side with Obito Uchiha, in mid-air.

"All Mist Ninja, listen up! I am the Master. The Mizukage has been taken control of by another. Any Mist Ninja, stand back immediately!"

Yuan Shi also strode quickly to the broken window and shouted loudly to the Mist Ninja below who looked surprised and doubtful.

These are the words spoken.

This left the Mist Ninja looking utterly astonished and shocked.
