Naruto, this is called Kuuga, not White Zetsu

"Boy, if you study hard, you might be able to truly surpass all the previous Hokage."

Jiraiya rubbed his chin with his right hand: "You inherited the Wood Style of the First Hokage, and you also possess four types of Chakra. Add to that your Wind Style and Fire Style. When you use them together, the power is extraordinary."

He paused and continued, "You are only 8 years old now, and you still have a long way to go in the future. I heard from Tsunade that your chakra increased a lot after awakening the Wood Release. I can't imagine how much you will grow in the future. It's really exciting." Jiraiya became more and more excited as he spoke, with the corners of his mouth raised unnaturally, as if he could already foresee how powerful Konoha would be at that time under the leadership of Seto Chihiro.

Kakashi was also attracted by what Jiraiya said. The kid in front of him was not a half-baked one like Naruto, who took a month to learn a Rasengan. He was not Tenzang, who had difficulty controlling a tailed beast. Instead, he was a member of the Senju clan who had truly awakened the Wood Release Blood Traces.

At the same age, if he had faced the ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village, the outcome might have been even more different...

Kakashi shook his head in pain, subconsciously trying to avoid the scene of Raikiri piercing Lin's chest.

Ever since he thought Obito was not dead, he dreamed of Obito questioning him more and more often...

"Chihiro, do you still remember the scene when you faced the tiger masked man?"

Seto Chihiro paused and frowned, "The murderer who massacred the Uchiha clan? I will never forget that guy. Even if he turns into ashes, I will still recognize him."

"I want to ask, what effect does his space-time ninjutsu have when it is released."

Kakashi's breathing gradually became rapid, and he looked like he was eager to know.

"That guy's space-time ninjutsu is very strange. He can be immune to most physical attacks, and he can also take away Teng Man and the injured Uchiha Itachi. It's as strange as it can be, but I have already thought of the flaws in that guy's ninjutsu."

Speaking of this, Seto Chihiro took out a skewer of barbecue from the fire pit. He was thinking about how to make Kakashi expose Obito's identity.

There is no tracking of White Zetsu and Black Zetsu now.

It's simply the best time to increase Obito's strength.

"What kind of flaw does his space-time ninjutsu have?!"

Kakashi's eyes narrowed slightly, wanting to know immediately how the ninjutsu was broken, but to his disappointment, Seto Chihiro seemed to be eating very slowly, and was basically tasting the ingredients.

He swallowed the last bite and casually broke the wooden stick: "Actually, I don't know if it's true, because I'm just guessing, and I only have one chance to test it."

Jiraiya also became interested. It was not that Konoha did not have an analysis team capable of analyzing the tiger-masked man, but there was too little information and they could not analyze anything.

"Tell us your idea and we'll find a way to prove it for you."

Seto Chihiro glanced at Kakashi and said, "It seems that the Sharingan of that guy only takes shape when attacking. Normally, he can use those eyes to suck nearby objects in, and can attack or defend."

He went on to say, "However, no matter how powerful the pupil technique is, there are conditions for its use. That guy can only use one ability at a time, either to make himself immune to damage or to transfer objects."

Jiraiya curled his lips and said, "Boy, aren't these the same things you told Tsunade? Tell me what your test is!"

Seeing Jiraiya so impatient, Seto Chihiro, who was gradually becoming the mastermind, should satisfy Jiraiya's small request. He quickly shook his head and explained:

"No, Master Jiraiya, I haven't finished. Why was the other party able to evade Ninjutsu and take that bastard Uchiha Itachi away? In other words, the other party may have transferred his body to another place and left a clone behind, so he could avoid most of the damage."

Seto Chihiro's eyes gradually turned cold: "But as long as we can figure out whether the space where the other party stored Uchiha Itachi and the space where he transferred his body are the same, we can completely defeat that guy. Although space ninjutsu is troublesome, for me, as long as I can test the result, I can kill that guy!"

"Are you sure the space is the same?"

Kakashi muttered, unconsciously touching his right eye.

"That's right. Since the other party was able to take Uchiha Itachi away, it means that the space can definitely store living things."

Seto Chihiro looked determined and her tone became much colder.

"As long as my wooden clone is absorbed by the other party, it is very likely that I will see the true appearance of that guy in space, and then that guy will definitely die!"

"Chihiro, don't be so excited, calm down!"

Jiraiya was shocked by Seto Chihiro's words. This was the second time he saw this kid so angry. The first time was a few months ago when he met Shimura Danzo.

"I am calm, Jiraiya-sama."

Seto Chihiro's black eyes flashed twice, then she looked away: "No matter what, that guy must be brought to justice. Although you have been hiding it from me, whether it is the Night of the Nine-Tails or the annihilation of the Uchiha clan, it is definitely related to that guy."

"..."

"..."

After hearing what Seto Chihiro said, both of them fell silent.

One is the teacher of the Fourth Hokage, and the other is the apprentice of the Fourth Hokage.

Compared to the little guy in front of them, they have too many reasons to avenge the dead.

"In that case, if we find that guy's trail by then, let me deal with him personally."

Suddenly, Kakashi said something, his eyes gradually became firm, and the three-magatama Sharingan changed into a Mangekyo, with an extremely firm expression.

"But......"

Just as Seto Chihiro was about to explain, Kakashi interrupted him forcefully and said solemnly: "The Fourth Hokage is my teacher. He died on the night of the Nine-Tails to protect Konoha. At that time, I couldn't even protect my master's wife. Now I have awakened the space-time ninjutsu. Let me deal with that guy."

"you……"

Jiraiya looked at Kakashi, speechless for a moment, completely not knowing what to say, and finally fell into deep thought.

But soon, he felt that this was indeed a good choice.

Kakashi, who possesses the space-time ninjutsu, may not be a match for the tiger-masked man.

"Let me assist you when the time comes. I will create opportunities for you."

At this moment, Seto Chihiro frowned tightly, and kept looking at Kakashi and Jiraiya again and again: "I remember that there seemed to be no clues about the masked man in Toranomon in this mission, Captain Kakashi, Master Jiraiya, are you hiding some important information?"

"a ha ha ha……"

Jiraiya seemed a little embarrassed, and looked around in panic, then shook his head, as if he wanted to cover up something, but he didn't know where to start. The next second he suddenly thought of something and explained: "Our mission this time is against the Akatsuki organization, but as you know, there are many traitors in that organization."

"But, I remember my sister said that the traitors of that organization are all ninjas from other villages, like the Hidden Mist Village, the Hidden Taki Village, the Hidden Sand Village, the Hidden Rock Village, etc. There is no traitor from Konoha at all, let alone any guy with a Sharingan. Wait... something seems to be wrong..."

Seto Chihiro's frown gradually relaxed, and her expression gradually began to look grim: "Could it be that Uchiha Itachi is also in that organization?"

Kakashi gradually reacted, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitching twice, and he looked at Jiraiya with dead fish eyes.

Before leaving, the Hokage specifically instructed not to reveal to Seto Chihiro the information about Uchiha Itachi's membership in the Akatsuki organization, in order to prevent unnecessary fighting. The latter's identity and position are currently unclear, so it would be great if they could get information about the masked man from Itachi.

But now...

This is not a question of being exposed or not. Seto Chihiro's excellent ability to organize intelligence has already been demonstrated in front of them. This kid says he is analyzing, but he is often on guard in his heart.

He broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, the Anbu had handed over the information that Uchiha Itachi was heading to the Water Country a few days ago.

"Don't worry, that guy will never appear in the Rain Country."

Kakashi waved his hand, with a reassuring expression: "I heard that guy appeared somewhere else not long ago. Although the Anbu behind him can't track him, he definitely didn't join Akatsuki."

Jiraiya, who was standing by, secretly gave Kakashi a thumbs up when Seto Chihiro couldn't see. The latter put on his forehead protector again and showed a helpless expression.

"Well, it seems that even an organization that collects rebellious ninjas would avoid a lunatic like Uchiha Itachi."

After saying this, Seto Chihiro stopped talking, sat on the stone pier with an expressionless face, and began to think about the next itinerary.

at the same time.

In a cave in the Land of Rain, a huge golem stood firm in the center of the cave and slowly drilled into the ground. In an instant, only a blue-haired woman was left in the entire cave.

She had a cold face and elegant temperament, and exuded a strong chill from her whole body. Only after she read the latest information submitted by Jue did her cold expression ease, replaced by an expression of revenge. If you look closely, you will find a hint of uneasiness hidden in her eyes.

The blue-haired woman stood there for a while, and suddenly a pair of paper wings grew on her back and flew towards the depths of the cave.

"What's wrong, Nan?"

"Nagato, Danzo is dead. He was defeated by Jiraiya-sensei and then killed by the surviving Uchiha ninja."

Deep in the cave, a red-haired man named Nagato stared at Konan in a daze, somewhat unable to believe what he heard. His strange purple pupils reflected a little crystal light under the candlelight.

"Sensei Jiraiya?"

Nagato's expression changed slightly but he quickly regained his composure and continued to lower his head: "Now only Hanzo the Salamander is still alive in this world. I originally planned to find trouble for Danzo after collecting all the tailed beasts, but it seems that there is no need for that now."

After he finished speaking, he noticed that the blue-haired woman seemed to be hesitant to speak: "What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

"Teacher Jiraiya is expected to arrive in the Land of Rain tomorrow. He may have learned from Danzo that you and I are not dead."

When talking about Jiraiya's upcoming appearance in the Land of Rain, a look of nostalgia appeared on the woman's face, but it quickly disappeared.

"Teacher Jiraiya, are you planning on looking for us?"

In the dark cave, the sound of dripping water could be heard, but the man and his daughter were silent.

Chapter 7: The Hunted Hydrangea

The Land of Rain is a country where it rains all year round. The people living here once longed for sunshine, and they could have established their own businesses in the Land of Rain.

However, the special geographical location and the radical actions of the Rain Country's leader, Hanzo Salamander, during World War II caused the Rain Country to be unable to extricate itself from the war.

"boom--!"

The rain was pouring down, lightning illuminated the earth, and thunder roared through the sky.

In the cave, Nagato looked up at the rock wall above his head, as if he could see the scenery of the Rain Country at this moment.

"From the moment Yahiko died, it was completely over."

Xiaonan glanced at the figure standing not far away.

He couldn't help but crumple the scroll in his hand into a ball.

Peace in the ninja world needs to be fought for, but fighting for it is definitely not as simple as talking. Force must be used to exchange for the corresponding peace.

Because of the naivety of the first generation Akatsuki organization, in that battle, only she and Nagato survived, and all members of the first generation Akatsuki organization died in that battle.

Her life was saved by Yahiko's initiative to throw the kunai at Nagato's hand.

That battle buried not only the dead members of Akatsuki, but also the dreams of the three of them.

After that day, Nagato, at Madara's suggestion, re-established Akatsuki and embarked on a path of collecting the tailed beasts.

"The plan must not be interrupted. Yahiko must become the god of this world!"

Nagato's eyes became very cold. Under Konan's gaze, Pain opened his eyes and slowly walked out of the shadows.

"The current Akatsuki cannot be exposed to the eyes of the five major nations. The Tailed Beast Plan has not yet been officially launched, so we must not alert them."

"Tell Deidara and Hidan not to go out casually recently to avoid attracting Jiraiya-sensei."

"I see."

Konan nodded, his expression turning cold as it was at the beginning: "I will send out a clone to tell Itachi and Hoshigaki Kisame not to come back for the time being."

After saying that, she tore the information scroll in her hand into pieces, her body turned into countless pieces of paper, and left the depths of the cave.

......

A ruined house somewhere in the Rain Country.

Uchiha Obito sat on a stone table that looked relatively intact, his eyes deep, no one knew what he was looking at.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in his peripheral vision, black and white, and the person who appeared was Black Zetsu.

"Is Nagato planning to attack Jiraiya?"

He was quite curious about this question, after all, this question involved asking Nagato to help him attract firepower and persuade the Wood Release kid.

"Nagato plans to avoid Jiraiya and face the five major ninja villages when the plan is officially coming to an end."

White Zetsu opened his mouth, showing his sharp teeth, and grinned at Uchiha Obito: "Obito, that kid's ninjutsu Wood Release is very dangerous. Should I reveal some information about Nagato to Jiraiya?"

"Need not."

Uchiha Obito snorted coldly and rejected White Zetsu's proposal.

He opened his palm, and a slender branch emerged from it. "That little devil's Wood Release may indeed be much stronger than mine, but he has absolutely no way to deal with me. Jiraiya is currently searching for Nagato. If we rashly expose his information, it will cause unnecessary trouble. Ensuring the implementation of the Moon Eye Plan is the most important thing. Besides... Jiraiya's purpose of this trip is also for Nagato, so they will definitely run into each other."

"I approve of Obito's plan."

Black Zetsu's hoarse voice sounded, and he spoke meaningfully: "Right now, Nagato doesn't have much killing intention towards Jiraiya. Exposing him rashly will only cause the plan to go wrong. In the next period of time, I will let White Zetsu keep an eye on Jiraiya and the others, and wait until that brat is alone before taking action."

Uchiha Obito didn't say anything else, not caring at all whether Nagato would be killed.

In his opinion, the Akatsuki organization now has the ability to gather the tailed beasts from all the major ninja villages, but Nagato is still immersed in the dream of intimidating the ninja world and creating peace.

Adding some appropriate pressure to him can promote the implementation of the Moon Eye Project.
