The cross-dressing master in the world of Detective Conan

"crack"

Erzhuzi spoke slowly and deliberately, his hands clenching involuntarily, and then he heard his best friend scream in agony.

"If you want him to die faster, you can use even more force."

"Feel sorry"

Perhaps Sasuke was too shocked by the news from Kazama Kaoru, and in his daze, he weakly said sorry to Naruto who was lying on the ground.

Don't even mention sorry. With Erzhuzi's awkward personality, he'll probably only express remorse a handful of times in his entire life, let alone apologize directly.

This shows the shock this news caused him, and the importance of Naruto Uzumaki.

Chapter 627 Uchiha Waiting-for-Husband Stone

Are you telling the truth?

Erzhuzi's tone was very impolite, but compared to Kazama Kaoru, this was considered good, since he had heard news about his enemy.

"Think about it yourself. With Konoha Village in such a mess, he must want to come back and see his dear brother, right?"

Upon hearing this, Erzhuzi fell silent.

His expression became quite puzzling, perhaps he was reminiscing about his former gentle and kind older brother.

However, the look of reminiscence in his eyes vanished in an instant, replaced by a deep-seated hatred.

It seems they've come to their senses.

"Are you sure you're not joking? How could he possibly come back for something like this?"

It seems that although Erzhuzi was blinded by hatred, his intelligence was still intact.

In fact, without understanding Itachi Uchiha's identity as a Konoha spy, it would be difficult for anyone to understand his behavior.

Of course, this is also thanks to the fact that there are all sorts of oddballs in the Naruto world.

Especially in such a twisted profession as ninjas, while it is rare, it does happen.

The Akatsuki organization is full of all sorts of oddballs who end up together, but even among the weirdos, there isn't always a common language.

Kisame and Itachi are quite rare, considering that Hidan and Kakuzu are also immortal, yet they don't get along very well.

One is a fanatical religious believer, and the other is a hard-working bounty hunter who only cares about money; it would be strange if they didn't clash.

"By the way, where did your other teammate go? Wasn't Sakura supposed to be there? How come it's just the two of you left?"

No wonder Kazama Kaoru only felt passion from the beginning; it turns out that Sakura, who had been following Sasuke, was missing.

They all fell unconscious under the illusion. It seemed to be a large-scale illusion; a flurry of feathers appeared in the sky, and everyone who touched them fainted.

"This is Kabuto Yakushi's Nirvana Abode Technique, which appeared in the original work. It was implemented in conjunction with the Konoha Crush plan. Phew~, goodness, finally a bit of the original plot has appeared. That scared me to death."

Kazama Kaoru, who was meant to sabotage the plot, breathed a sigh of relief, which shows just how badly the plot had fallen apart.

"You didn't even care about Sakura who fainted on the ground?"

Kaoru Kazama snapped out of his daze and thought to ask the question, only to receive a matter-of-fact nod from Sasuke.

"His condition is more serious, shouldn't we send him here first?"

There was a hint of reproach in her eyes, as if she meant that Kazama Kaoru didn't know what was important.

"If you stay single for the rest of your life, no one can save you."

Kazama Kaoru said resentfully, but Erzhuzi didn't seem to care much. Although this guy had been adored since childhood and was surrounded by a bunch of love-obsessed people, it would be too late to wait for him to realize it on his own.

He's even more of an idiot than the one lying on the ground next to him.

It seems that neither of the Otsutsuki brothers were people who were devoted to emotions. Hashirama Senju was always thinking about Madara, and Madara died alone.

Is this destiny?

I gave up on trying to correct the clueless Uchiha Sasuke; after all, his whole clan is like that.

Only Fugaku Uchiha fared a little better, managing to win over Mikoto, a gentle and virtuous girl, and he probably benefited from being childhood friends.

This guy must have gathered all the blood of his clan to be able to produce two pairs of kaleidoscopes.

Maybe Mikoto can also activate her kaleidoscope, for example, something related to time travel, and then she could go to the world of A Certain Magical Index and have a meet-and-greet with Misaka Mikoto. That would be so interesting.

"How is he?"

Erzhuzi asked again, his eyes fixed on Naruto, who was lying motionless on the ground.

It was as if the one who had just screamed was someone else; he was unusually calm.

"Well, it's hard to say what the situation is like now."

Kazama Kaoru's unpredictable tone instantly made Erzhuzi tense.

His tone was typically deliberately mysterious, making the patient's family members very anxious.

This is how fortunes change; the original story is all about Naruto constantly chasing Sasuke.

After this unexpected change, will their positions be completely reversed?

However, whether Orochimaru would dare to take Naruto in if he wanted to defect is still a question.

That's a nuclear-level weapon. Even if the Fifth Hokage was his old comrade-in-arms, he couldn't just ignore the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki of Konoha.

Moreover, if others find out, they will definitely try to take advantage of it. Putting aside other ninja villages, the Akatsuki organization will not be able to turn a blind eye.

It turns out that the pursuit of Orochimaru's defection had always been ineffective.

On one hand, they knew the other party wouldn't leak any confidential information, and on the other hand, Orochimaru's strength was very troublesome.

Even if they are both Kage-level powerhouses, defeating Orochimaru might not be difficult, but killing him would be much harder.

That's someone who survived to the very end in this tragic world.

He even had a role in Naruto's son's story.

His gender was already a mystery at that time; neither male nor female, that was Orochimaru.

I am who I am, a unique spark.

"Let's wait and see. Anyway, his physical health should be fine, and it might even bring some benefits. But his psychological issues are much bigger, and that's not something that sealing techniques can solve. In the near future, just keep an eye on your teammate. The current situation is unknown, and I won't be surprised what he does in the future."

Kaoru Kazama has a basis for saying this.

Naruto's protagonist personality allows him to suppress his own pain in order to understand others, which is why he can promote peace.

But is there no darkness in his heart? Not necessarily, it might even be more than that of the average person.

Don't forget there's a fox spirit inside him, who's been relentlessly leading him toward hatred of humans.

It's estimated that Naruto's personality, which has become what it is now—completely disregarding the pain of his childhood and devoting himself wholeheartedly to contributing to Konoha—is inextricably linked to the resistance and rebellious mentality caused by Kurama's manipulation.

However, these things do exist. Leaving aside the power of the cursed seal, there are indeed many negative and pessimistic aspects to it.

Even Jugo himself was not spared, let alone others.

"Is that so? I understand."

Although Erzhuzi had not yet realized the seriousness of the situation, out of concern for Naruto, he still agreed to this job that was completely out of character for him.

"By the way, you mustn't tell him about this."

"What things?"

Kaoru Kazama, feigning ignorance, asked:

"It's about me carrying him to the hospital and asking you for help here. If he asks, just say that the doctors at Konoha Hospital cured him."

"Hey, you're completely erasing my contributions. Do you think that's a good thing? I worked so hard."

"You're so nagging, I understand."

Erzhuzi has finally rediscovered his arrogant and awkward persona, but unfortunately, Naruto didn't get to see it.

This guy is still unconscious, much more seriously than Sasuke was back then.

"Alright, you don't need to worry too much. I'll take care of it. Let me study the principle behind this thing and see if I can find a solution. You just focus on your exam. Wait, Konoha needs you now. Go check it out first."

And so, Kaoru Kazama drove Sasuke away.

This guy glanced back at Naruto one last time, then walked away without looking back.

He thought he was being very cool, but he didn't even notice the look on his face when he looked back – a look of utter despair.

"We need to speed up the Uchiha rescue plan, otherwise we might get disrupted by this crazy plot twist."

Kazama Kaoru was determined. He used Earth Release ninjutsu to open up the space in the laboratory, placed Naruto in one of the nutrient tanks, and then activated the vortex mode, rapidly advancing towards the competition venue.

Good heavens, such a lively scene! She'd be missing out if she didn't go see it.

Maybe I can even get a chance to take a couple of photos of the First and Second Hokage, and then when they return with their consciousness through the Impure World Reincarnation during the Fourth Shinobi World War, I can sign their names, and that will complete the whole thing.

Chapter 628 Battle Against the Man Who Made a Pact with the Sea

The Body Flicker Technique, which can replace trains and cars and become the main mode of transportation in the ninja world, naturally has its advantages.

Especially in forest-filled places like the Land of Fire, the speed of both trains and cars will be restricted.

In contrast, a person who uses chakra to fly around in the trees wouldn't have this problem.

Moreover, as a ninja who specializes in assassination, one is a small target and makes little noise, making it difficult for the enemy to detect an attack.

Kaoru Kazama is currently using this method to move forward. In fact, this is the first time she has used this method for an extended period of time since arriving in the Naruto world, and she feels quite good about it.

Even though it's a bit tiring, at least it's quite cool.

Although the climate in the Land of Fire isn't very hot to begin with.

"Wow, it looks like there are a lot more trees now."

Although Kaoru Kazama rarely goes out, she still noticed that something was wrong here.

The thick trees grow in a crooked shape, seemingly all pointing in the same direction, which is quite different from the trees native to the Land of Fire.

In addition, this is combined with what Uchiha Ryo had previously said: that Hashirama Senju was resurrected by Orochimaru using the Impure World Reincarnation technique to fight against the Third Hokage.

She immediately understood that this was the result of the First Hokage's afforestation efforts.
