Obito has now gathered a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan, and his eye power is growing rapidly.
At this time, he didn't want to conflict with Nagato. After all, it was not that simple for him to find someone who was on the same frequency as the Heretic Demon.
So these words are completely a temptation.
Payne was noncommittal. Now he didn't rely on Obito as much as before.
Even the attitude is a bit contemptuous.
Obito was mentally prepared for this kind of behavior.
When I worked with Nagato in the past, we used each other and were wary of each other. But Pain is more wary of Obito.
After all, Obito used to come and go without a trace because of his divine power. Even how to control the Samsara Eye and how to control the heretic demons were taught by Obito.
This made Nagato raise the danger of Obito very high in his heart. Even if he wasn't Uchiha Madara, he was still a very difficult person.
But now Obito's identity was suddenly exposed, and Natsuki even expelled Obito from the family tree. Obito instantly became a "savage" who didn't even have the Uchiha surname.
Compared with the previous vest "Uchiha Madara", the gap is too big. Even if Obito's ability has not changed, it will inevitably make Nagato despise him.
Obito's mind was spinning at this moment, and he also wanted to test Nagato's current attitude towards him.
"When Xiamu succeeds as clan leader, you can test it out."
"no need!"
Pain interrupted Obito without hesitation: "Now is the time when the organization should be lurking. Going to Konoha rashly will only expose our Akatsuki information. How can we capture the tailed beasts in the future?"
"When you went to Konoha this time, your identity was directly exposed. And Zetsu, you also exposed a lot of information."
"Now the organizational strength is not enough, and we still need to stay dormant."
Jue said in a low voice: "I'm sorry."
Obito sneered in his heart, his eye power is still improving now, when my transformation is completed, I will throw you away.
Do you really think you are God?
There was no expression on Obito's face, but his tone gave in: "I understand."
…
Chapter 151 Prelude
Rain Ninja Village
Payne opened his eyes.
Konan asked: "What does it mean that Obito is like this?"
Payne said calmly: "This is Obito testing our attitude towards him. He has been hit hard now. If we are still polite to him, he will become suspicious."
"Obito's identity has only been exposed. He just said that more people will be wary of him in the future, but his strength has not been damaged."
"He has his left eye back now. He thought I didn't know the secret of the double Sharingan, so he deliberately gave in."
"His hibernation just means that there is something wrong in his heart."
"Compared to Obito, I am still more willing to trust Natsuki."
Xiaonan said that when you are with Obito, you are always on tenterhooks, and cooperating with him is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger.
Payne nodded: "Let's try it..."
He closed his eyes, and a wave of thought spread out...
…
Uchiha clan land.
Natsuki's expression changed. Nagato actually contacted me?
Natsuki sent everyone else away.
He lay down and changed into a comfortable position. Then he performed the spell and his thoughts drifted into the distance.
When he opened his eyes again, he saw that he was already in an unknown cave.
Opposite is Payne's figure.
Xia Muxian raised his hand and looked at his body. It was like a video conference. Occasionally, there would be pulling fluctuations on his body.
The signal on this thing is not very good.
But it is already powerful enough. Ultra-long-distance confidential communication is the only one with no other branches.
"You're here." Pain's tone of voice was different from when communicating with Obito.
Talking to Natsuki was normal, just like ordinary friends.
"Did Obito react?"
Natsuki guessed that Obito would choose to shrink down now.
Payne nodded: "Obito's identity was exposed. I deliberately acted strong, but he backed down."
Natsuki touched his chin. Obito had always been cautious in character and always hid in the dark. These calculations were all because he knew all about Obito's information. And Obito didn't know that Natsuki knew everything about him.
Even after his information was exposed, even Fugaku was able to play tricks on him.
It's just a matter of poor information.
Now that Obito knows that his ability has been completely exposed, he will naturally be more cautious in the future and will not show up again easily.
"Obito has suffered several losses from me. Now that he has his left eye back, his abilities will improve rapidly and he will definitely lurk. Your Akatsuki organization will also continue to dormant and develop."
"Your body..." Xia Mu pondered for a moment.
The current Nagato is obviously much weaker than Obito. Now that Obito has his eyes back, it means that he can also activate Susanoo. With the dual divine power, he can't be killed at all.
Nagato's Akatsuki organization has just begun its activities, and it is impossible for Kakuzu to save 600 billion detonating charms for Konan.
At this time, Nagato and Konan were still far behind Obito in terms of hard power.
Nagato's body itself was the biggest flaw. Once Zetsu found it, it was gone.
Xia Mu suddenly had an idea: "Ask Xiaonan to come here, I have something for you."
"When I arrive, I will use the paper crane to contact you."
"good."
Disconnected thinking.
Xia Mu opened her eyes and was still lying on the bed.
Stretched: "Oh, I'm so tired. Being a clan leader is really a troublesome thing."
After Natsuki came back, he found out that Fugaku had obtained the time-sealing magic circle of the witch from the Kingdom of Demons.
It turns out that there really is something to restrain the time and space ninjutsu. It seems that it is a good thing that Fugaku is not dead, otherwise I would not know that such a thing exists.
If the time-sealing circle hadn't been able to be opened continuously, Obito would probably be dead by now.
Xia Mu immediately sent people to the Kingdom of Ghosts.
I don’t know what the news is over there.
But now that the clan still has a time-sealing magic weapon, the safety of the clan can be guaranteed.
When Natsuki agreed to take over as clan leader, Fugaku had already announced the news to the clan.
Now, all matters big and small come to Xia Mu to report.
He never knew that the head of a clan was in charge of so many things.
The income from the snack street, the export materials from Sand Hidden Village, the rewards for the birth of tribesmen's children, etc., must be reported.
Although Natsuki had manipulated Uchiha in the overall situation and brought considerable progress to Uchiha, he had never cared about the details of the specific operation.
Natsuki has never been greedy for power. After all, there is a big tube wood on the top of his head. It will be of no use if you are greedy for power.
So Xia Mu has been looking for suitable personnel these days to sort out these large and small matters.
…
Konoha Village.
Hokage's office.
The Third Hokage, Danzo Shimura, Mito Kaden, and Koharu all gathered here.
Because the Third Hokage received a lot of official documents and letters.
It was sent from another Ninja Village, because the current Uchiha nominally belongs to the Leaf Village.
Therefore, everyone invited to the Uchiha Clan Chief's succession ceremony sent two letters in reply, one telling the Leaf Village who we were going to come. You'd better do the reception, and the other thing is to avoid misunderstandings.
The other one is a reply to Uchiha, which means that we have received the invitation and a reply letter whether we will come or not.
"Let's take a look." The Third Hokage threw all the official letters there.
He motioned to Danzo to take a look.
Danzo and the other three picked up the letters and read them one by one.
Iwagakure, Kumogakure, and Sunagakure all expressed their intention to come, but there was no news from Kirigakure, so he probably wouldn't come.
"These people have impure motives." Mito Menyan said sadly.
The third generation took his pipe and tapped on another document, which was also an official letter: "This is the recently rising Yinyin Village, and their so-called Yinying will also come."
Danzo sneered: "The leader of a small village dares to call himself a shadow?"
Danzo's contempt is not unreasonable. Nowadays, in addition to the five major countries, there are many small ninja villages in other small countries, but most of them are not strong enough. The most powerful ones are the elite jounin forces.
And there are only two or three kittens, which is not a climate at all.
If you don't have any strength and rashly claim to be a movie star, you will be laughed at immediately except in your own village.
The Third Hokage shook his head: "The succession ceremony for this sound was held recently. There is not much information about him yet, but Shisui and the more than a hundred Uchiha are all in the Sound Hidden Village."
"Hmph." Danzo had forgotten that Uchiha had left more than a hundred elites.
"The evil Uchiha clan."
"I suspect that this sound and shadow is a puppet supported by the Uchiha clan."
The third generation shook his head: "Uchiha Natsuki is putting pressure on us."
"Our relationship with Uchiha is not good to begin with, and now there are so many people from other villages coming here to blatantly spy on information. If we in Konoha don't do something."
"I'm afraid Natsuki will publicly express his separation from our Konoha."
What the Third Hokage said made sense. After all, Natsuki had said before that he asked Konoha to disclose the Uchiha's operational arrangements for the Night of the Kyuubi.
However, the top management of Konoha was concerned about their face and kept delaying giving a direct reply.
Natsuki invited so many people from other ninja villages to watch the ceremony in the name of taking over as the clan leader.
It's just to put pressure on Konoha. If you don't announce it, okay, I'll tell the other forces directly that we are not familiar with Konoha Village and whatever activities you have have nothing to do with us.
And in terms of strength, Itachi has returned to Uchiha, Shisui is back, plus Natsuki and Fugaku. Uchiha now has four pairs of Mangekyō Sharingan.
Coupled with the more than a hundred Uchiha elites who returned and the Uchiha who stayed behind, the Uchiha now even have the ability to set off a coup.
Especially the more than one hundred Uchiha elites, all of whom are hawks, are entirely likely to initiate a coup.
But you still can't let others come back. After all, it was signed by the Third Hokage, saying that they ran away.
Since it's such a big deal to run away, wouldn't it be reasonable to return to the village when changing the clan leader's position?
Natsuki's move made the Third Hokage feel like a storm was coming.
…
Chapter 152 Give in
Konoha Village
Hokage's office.
The Third Hokage knocked on the table.
"There are already a lot of rumors in the village now, and it doesn't make any sense for us to delay."
Several people are aware of the recent rumors in the village.
