Inside the residence of the Fifth Mizukage, Uchiha Obito stood cloaked in black, his spiral mask hiding a face twisted with frustration. From ti to ti, a dark glint flashed through his scarlet Sharingan.
Thinking it through, the current Hidden Rain Village had beco overwhelmingly powerful.
No… more accurately—
Uchiha Feng himself had beco overwhelmingly powerful.
As the leader of the Hidden Rain, the things he had done were even more ruthless than Konoha.
First, he extorted the Land of Earth, then ford an alliance with the Land of Fire.
After that, he attacked the Land of Wind and intimidated the Land of Lightning…
Compared to him, Obito—the so-called chosen executor of justice, the inheritor of Uchiha Madara—
Was living far too miserably!
"White Zetsu, tell honestly… is Uchiha Feng actually the one carrying out the Eye of the Moon Plan?"
After holding it in for a long ti, Obito finally couldn't help but ask.
"Huh?"
White Zetsu turned his head, completely confused.
What do you an Uchiha Feng is the executor?
Black Zetsu never said that.
Madara never said that either.
Is this Uchiha lunatic acting up again?
That Uchiha Feng's perception is ridiculously sharp—we don't even dare get close to him.
How did you even imagine an opponent like that as the inheritor of the plan?
Seeing White Zetsu's expression, Obito cursed inwardly.
This idiot didn't know anything—just useless.
Asking him was a waste of ti.
He might as well focus on contacting other nations to send reinforcents.
Although watching Kirigakure's shinobi—those who once hard Rin—getting slaughtered was sowhat satisfying…
If too many died, his own foundation would be damaged.
At that point, the entire Hidden Mist Village might be destroyed!
Thinking of this, Obito let out a long sigh.
He had clearly given away the Uchiha Gunbai as a gesture of goodwill, showing he didn't intend to oppose Ning Feng.
Yet Uchiha Feng refused to let things go.
Others might underestimate Ning Feng due to lack of intelligence…
But Obito had White Zetsu constantly feeding him information—and had personally witnessed Ning Feng's strength.
He had no doubt that Ning Feng could now single-handedly take on a small nation.
And his own forces consisted only of Kirigakure…
As long as Ning Feng didn't make excessive demands, Obito was even willing to consider compromise.
anwhile, Kirigakure's communication units were rapidly contacting the Land of Earth and the Land of Lightning—both hostile toward the Hidden Rain Village.
Large numbers of shinobi forces were already rushing toward the Hidden Mist Village.
…
"Not bad… looks like Uchiha Obito has managed Kirigakure quite well."
Ning Feng strolled casually along the outskirts of the village, observing the defensive arrangents along its borders.
There were indeed many noteworthy aspects.
Compared to Konoha and the Hidden Rain, Kirigakure's security was far stricter.
Even as he walked casually without emitting the slightest chakra fluctuation, he could sense no fewer than three gazes sweeping over him.
Ning Feng adjusted the straw hat on his head.
He was extrely confident in his chakra control—those border shinobi would never detect that he was one of their kind.
And even if he were discovered, he wasn't worried.
With his current strength, there was nowhere in the ninja world he couldn't go.
anwhile, Nagato was still contacting mbers of the Akatsuki planted within Kirigakure.
They had gathered several important pieces of intelligence:
A genius from the Hōzuki clan had risen against all opposition to beco the Fifth Mizukage.
The Seven Ninja Swordsn had been reassembled.
And the "Bloody Mist" policy had been slightly relaxed, giving the village's shinobi so breathing room.
It seed that Ning Feng's actions during the Nine-Tails incident had dealt Obito a heavy blow.
"This ti, I won't give you the chance to reclaim the swords…"
Ning Feng let out a low chuckle.
His primary goal in coming to Kirigakure was to obtain the Three-Tails, Isobu.
The fusion of tailed beast chakra had been progressing smoothly so far.
He suspected it was because all the tailed beasts originated from the sa source—the Ten-Tails.
Thus, the rejection between their chakras was minimal.
At this rate, the fusion would likely be complete in a few months.
If he could now add the Three-Tails to the mix, his strength would undoubtedly rise to another level.
"Kirigakure seems to have quite a few unfamiliar faces lately…"
Ning Feng noticed a shinobi dressed like one from Kumogakure hurrying into the village, and felt a hint of curiosity.
Could the Hidden Mist be planning sothing big?
What he didn't realize was that, to deal with him, Obito had paid a heavy price—
Even offering part of Madara's legacy as bargaining chips to secure cooperation from the Lands of Earth and Lightning.
A joint force was being assembled to eliminate Ning Feng.
Ning Feng had no idea how deeply he had shaken Obito during the Nine-Tails incident—
Or how determined Obito had beco to eliminate him.
"Still… this Hōzuki Zangetsu might be troubleso."
Recalling Nagato's intelligence, Ning Feng rubbed his nose thoughtfully.
There had been no prior records of this person in Kirigakure.
He had appeared out of nowhere, risen without support from the upper ranks, and forced his way into the position of Mizukage.
His strength could be said to rival the greatest Mizukage in history.
According to reports, the Fifth Mizukage had already synchronized perfectly with the Three-Tails, becoming a perfect jinchūriki.
And in the water-rich environnt of the Land of Water, his power was greatly amplified.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Just as Ning Feng was about to return and consult Nagato for more information, several ANBU from Kirigakure suddenly appeared, blocking his path.
"Have I been discovered? So Obito's fully prepared and ready to confront head-on?"
Ning Feng thought, slightly surprised.
"Lord Third Akage, the Fifth Mizukage invites you to his residence for a discussion."
Ning Feng rubbed his forehead in mild annoyance.
Anyone could tell this was a trap—a banquet with hidden daggers.
With a casual wave of his hand, flas burst from the ground!
The blazing fire instantly engulfed the ANBU, who didn't even have ti to react!
"Damn it…"
Hidden in the shadows, Obito's expression darkened further.
He killed them without even a word?
No—Uchiha Feng didn't even speak before slaughtering those ANBU!
Obito had been hoping to attempt negotiations before resorting to force…
But Ning Feng clearly had no intention of giving him any face.
"Looks like there's no choice but to tear things apart."
Beside him, Black Zetsu half-rged into the ground, speaking in a low voice.
"All this… just because we pursued one Rain shinobi?"
Obito's face beneath the mask grew increasingly grim.
"How long until those forces arrive?"
"Soon. They've already gathered at the Mizukage's residence."
"Then I'll go stall him for a while."
As he spoke, space began to distort around Obito's eye—Kamui activating.
