Chapter 179：

But the sentinels were more symbolic than practical.

Usually those ninjas who offended others were exiled.

When not in wartime, they rarely even go out on patrol.

Crossing the border is a simple matter.

In a cave on the border of the Kingdom of Thunder.

There was a lot of tools placed in front of Xie, and many of his puppets were dismantled and placed neatly on the ground.

Xie was holding the tools and constantly debugging. After checking and adjusting, he applied the newly purchased poison and put the puppet back on.

"Brother Scorpion, you should have brought me into the organization earlier. After all, our organization is so good, huh!"

Deidara pinched the clay with some excitement. These were high-end goods he bought on the black market.

It could increase the power of the explosion by 30%, but it was expensive. He never thought he could use this kind of clay.

After he joined the Akatsuki organization, he actually didn't do many tasks. Recently, he even gave them a sum of money to upgrade their equipment.

Xie replied casually while quenching the poison on Fei Liuhu's tail.

"You came at a good time. I used to have many tasks, from assassination missions to war missions, and I had very little free time."

"The organization has distributed so many supplies this time and given us this information. It is estimated that the organization will make big moves in the future."

"Cherish the free time you have now."

Deidara mixed the clay and said nonchalantly: "I don't want to be famous after death like those artists. If I make a big move, my art will be known to more people, huh!"

"I can't wait, eh!"

Xie's young face was blank, and his eyes were empty as he said, "I'm going to die."

Deidara said: "But as an artist, if you don't seek stronger stimulation."

"My sense of things will gradually become dull, Brother Scorpion."

The mouth in Deidara's hand chewed for a while and spit out a ball of clay.

Deidara rubbed his hands together and soon turned into a lifelike clay spider.

After the spider was injected with chakra, it came to life and crawled out, with a small and flexible body.

Deidara made a seal in his hand: "Art is explosion! Drink!"

Boom!

A large hole was blown into the ground.

Deidara looked at the pothole and cheered: "Wuhu! The new clay is so easy to use! Hmm!"

"What, your explosions are considered art?"

Xie raised his puppet arm and stared at the elaborate mechanism above.

"Art is something that can be passed down for a long time and perfectly."

"Eternal beauty is art!"

Deidara turned around: "Art should be about dazzling but fleeting beauty."

Xie sighed: "It seems you still don't understand what real art is."

"I think you don't understand, brother."

"No, permanent beauty is the real art."

"Don't be silly, the beauty of the moment is art."

"How about it, Deidara." Scorpion's arm stretched out a sharp blade with venom quenched on it.

Deidara turned his head and hummed softly: "I will prove it to you, Brother Scorpion, my art..."

Chapter 221 I am Hokage

Divine space.

Obito dispersed Susanoo and stopped panting.

Lying on the ground with big characters.

Finally, the growth of pupil power finally stopped.

Obito's current strength has undergone tremendous changes compared to before.

It's a pity that Susanoo is now using up too much power.

However, he felt that there were some things that he could try to start.

A vortex appeared in mid-air, and Obito appeared in the mountain cemetery.

This was once the secluded place of the real Uchiha Madara.

There are many secrets here.

Black Jue has also done many experiments here.

Danzo was unconscious, lying on the bed in the laboratory, with several monitoring instruments next to him.

Zetsu was checking his right arm.

"I've been transforming you for so long, but your fusion level is still so low."

After Zetsu's inspection, he felt that he was at a huge loss with Danzo.

I don’t know if it’s because of Danzo’s aging body, but after modifying his right arm, his fusion with Wood Release is still quite low.

This time, he used White Zetsu to enhance the Wood Release activity of his right arm, almost causing Danzo to die on the spot.

Although Danzo also has a Sharingan, his Sharingan is obviously unable to suppress more Mudun transformations, so Bai Zetsu can only suppress this part of the body.

Danzo can only be considered a failure, and it seems that Danzo can only be used as a consumable.

But the secrets in Danzo's mind can be used.

"It's just a failure."

As someone who has experienced this, Obito can see Danzo's failure at a glance.

"Not worth your time."

After hearing Obito's words, Zetsu shrugged helplessly: "This old guy probably won't wake up now, so he can only be used as a consumable by Bai Zetsu."

"After all, not everyone can be like you."

Obito snorted softly.

"What's going on outside?"

Zetsu began to report some intelligence from the outside world to Obito.

"Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and Tsunade, all three of them have returned to the village."

"Jiraiya and Orochimaru live in the village, and Tsunade is in the Uchiha clan. I heard from the casino that she was recruited by Natsuki."

"Natsuki has taken over as the new Uchiha clan leader, and Itachi and Shisui have returned to Otogakure Village."

"The cooperation between Otogakure and Uchiha has been made clear. Now Uchiha has a great advantage."

"What does Uchiha Natsuki mean?" Obito was a little confused.

The Third Hokage's reputation has been severely damaged this time because of Danzo's escape.

If Itachi and Shisui were both in the clan, it would be difficult for Konoha to resist them.

But Natsuki let both of them out and sent them to Otoyin Village.

Black Zetsu chuckled and said: "Kumogakure sent a large number of spies to Kirigakure, and Kirigakure has been defending desperately."

Obito raised his eyebrows: "You mean? Kumogakure is going to take action against Kirigakure?"

"Kirigakure's Goju Yagura hasn't been seen for a long time, and the Vulpix Yugao also defected..."

After all these years, Hei Jue has seen it most clearly. He knows exactly what kind of virtue Kumogakure has.

"The reason why Kumogakure has not touched Kirigakure is because he is afraid that Konoha will take advantage of him. Now Konoha Village has been locked up by Uchiha."

"Kirigakure is weak, so Kumogakure will definitely take action. It can be seen from the many spies recently."

If there is a war, who is the happiest person, it is undoubtedly Obito. In the chaotic battlefield, it is the easiest to capture the tailed beast.

"Kumogakure really knows how to pick good moments." Obito said with a smile.

Obito has the most say in Kirigakure's current situation, although he doesn't know that Goju Yagura is dead yet.

But Kaguya, Oni Deng, and the Snow Clan were all exterminated under his orders. He knew only too well how much Kirigakure had suffered.

When he left Kirigakure, even though the Fifth Mizukage succeeded to the throne, Kirigakure was still full of factions, fighting each other endlessly.

It's just that thanks to the fact that Kirigakure used to be closed to the outside world, everyone was used to not touching Kirigakure.

Unexpectedly, when Kumogakure saw that Konoha couldn't take action, he immediately went to Kirigakure to test it.

Zetsu said in a hoarse voice: "After Kumogakure attended Uchiha Natsuki's succession ceremony this time, he began to test Kirigakure not long after."

"In addition, Natsuki Uchiha also sent Itachi and Shisui to Otogakure Village."

"I suspect that Uchiha has formed an alliance with Kumogakure."

"As long as Kumogakure is determined to fight, Kirigakure won't last long."

Obito frowned.

What Hei Jue said is very possible.

If Uchiha also intervened in the fight between Kumogakure and Kirigakure.

With Kumogakure's strength and Uchiha's Mangekyo Sharingan, defeating Kirigakure might not be overwhelming.

He shook his head: "This is not possible. If the war does not last long, how can we drag other countries into it?"

Bai Jue asked excitedly: "Oh! What are you going to do?"

Obito pointed at Jue's clothes: "Isn't this what our Akatsuki organization does?"

There was a trace of malice on Obito's face.

The kaleidoscope eyes brought him not only Susanoo, but also an improvement in eye power.

The most important thing is to be confident!

After a fight breaks out outside, he can take advantage of the chaos and start collecting tailed beasts in advance.

Looking at Obito's confident eyes, Black Zetsu sneered silently in his heart.

Black Zetsu said in a hoarse voice: "The Leaf Village is so peaceful now. The Third Hokage will not conflict with Natsuki at all. This is not going to work. We have to add fuel to the fire."

"The current Third Hokage has so much black material. If he chooses a new Hokage, then Danzo will be of no use..."

drip... drip... drip...

The instrument monitoring Danzo's brainwaves suddenly started beeping.

Obito frowned: "What's going on?"

Zetsu took a look over with some curiosity and found that Danzo's brain waves were very active, but they were still far from the level of awakening.

But they didn't speak, and the level of activity suddenly dropped.

Zetsu thought for a moment: "Did what we just said irritate Danzo?"

Obito also became interested.

He thought for a moment, walked to the unconscious Danzo and said, "Hokage?"

Beep... beep... the radio wave index has improved a bit, but not much.

Obito then tried again: "New Hokage?"

Wow... the radio wave index has increased even more.

Bai Zetsu also understood, and said in a cheerful voice: "Sarutobi Hiruzen is about to abdicate, and the Fifth Hokage will be chosen soon."

"The Fifth Hokage is about to be selected."
