"Ahem!" Obito coughed. He covered his mouth with his hand. A trace of blood flowed from the corner of his lips.
His mask was shattered, revealing a half-disfigured face. His clothes were tattered, and even half of his arm was missing.
His gaze was cold, filled with murderous madness.
A few ters away from him, a motionless body lay.
From the ground, Zetsu slowly erged. He glanced at the body in the distance and clicked his tongue in admiration. "I expected nothing less from the Eight-Tails... You've managed to get Tobi to this point."
Obito replied in an icy voice, "He has completely mastered the power of his tailed beast. It is even more difficult to handle than the Nine-Tails."
Black Zetsu said with a smile: "Anyway, we have caught the other party. What's left is to seal him. By the way, do you still want to make a deal with Uchiha Funan this ti?"
When he said this, Black Zetsu was full of bitterness.
"No!"
Obito said coldly: "There is not a single tailed beast in the body of the Ten Tails. It is all chakra. I am worried about problems. This ti, we will seal the full tailed beast."
Black Zetsu breathed a sigh of relief.
...
"Father, just promise !"
Sasuke looked at Fugaku eagerly and said, "I have considered it carefully, and I will never regret it."
Fugaku looked at his youngest son with a headache and said, "Where is your elder brother? Did he agree too?"
"He asked to get your consent."
Fugaku cursed in his mind. He was really helpless.
He didn't understand what was happening to his youngest son. At what point did it occur to him that becoming a Jinchuriki was a good idea?
Mikoto, who was watching the scene next to him, sighed in resignation.
She had been trying to persuade Sasuke for days, but he seed to have inherited his father's stubbornness.
"Sasuke, why do you want to beco a Jinchuriki?" Fugaku looked at Sasuke seriously and said, "The power of the Uchiha is not inferior to that of any tailed beast. Instead of wasting your energy trying to master one's chakra, you should focus on strengthening your own."
"I know!" Sasuke said with a serious face, "I have always been deeply proud of being a mber of the Uchiha clan."
"Then why do you..." Fugaku looked at Sasuke who was determined, sighed helplessly, and said, "Even if you want to beco a Jinchuriki, you need the consent of the Hokage. All the tailed beasts are in his hands."
"Thank you, father!" Sasuke breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, Uchiha Fugaku was convinced.
The only thing left is Funan.
But in reality, Sasuke didn't want to be a Jinchuriki.
It's just that he started to get nervous when he saw Naruto, the Jinchūriki, making continuous progress and becoming stronger day by day.
He was worried that he would be surpassed.
He definitely didn't want to be surpassed by Naruto.
At the sa ti, he felt uncomfortable looking at Naruto's lonely back.
There was always a desire to understand the other person's thoughts.
So, he decided to beco a Jinchuriki.
Under Fugaku's guidance, father and son headed to the Hokage's office.
When they expressed their request, Yako did not hesitate to arrange a eting.
...
Jiraiya and Naruto had arrived at the border with Iwagakure.
Funan had given them an order.
Jiraiya was to lead the shinobi to the border, holding off the Iwa forces and preventing them from aiding Kumo.
anwhile, on the other side of the continent, the Uchiha-led army was preparing to launch an attack on Kumo.
As for Naruto's arrival... This is also Funan's order.
It was ti for him to see blood.
This decision was open to no objection.
The Fourth Great Shinobi War was about to break out.
"Jiraiya-sama!"
Kakashi and Might Guy hurried over after hearing the news of Jiraiya's arrival.
"These are..." Jiraiya frowned as he noticed a shinobi army not far away. Although the distance was only one or two kiloters, it could not be considered a safe zone.
"They're from Sunagakure." Kakashi replied.
"Sunagakure?"
"Yes." Kakashi explained, "Gaara, the Hokage's disciple, has already beco Kazekage. He is the Fifth Kazekage and has co with a direct order from the Hokage to support us."
"Eight thousand Suna shinobi will be on the front lines of battle."
"The Hokage also sent an encrypted ssage assuring that we can trust them."
Jiraiya felt a slight twitch in his eye. "The Fifth Kazekage has co in person?"
"Yes!" Kakashi said: "We will go to see him later."
"Okay!" Jiraiya had vast experience in war.
Upon learning that the Suna shinobi were coming as reinforcents and that they numbered eight thousand, his first thought was not simply to stop Iwagakure's advance...
But go directly to Iwagakure!
Even go through it completely!
If they dared to cause trouble in Konoha, why couldn't the Konoha shinobi return the visit?
Adding up Konoha's forces, there were now thirteen thousand troops in total!
If Jiraiya said a few nice words to Funan, it wouldn't be hard to round it up to 15 thousand.
Jiraiya glanced at Naruto.
In addition, they had a tailed beast.
And not only that.
Gaara was also a Jinchuriki.
"It's ti to plan our strategies well..." Jiraiya muttered as he analyzed the map.
That sa night, Jiraiya dragged Kakashi to headquarters, and the two spent the night whispering battle plans.
The next morning, although they were exhausted, they were visibly excited.
On the contrary...
When Iwagakure heard that Sunagakure had deployed eight thousand shinobi, Onoki felt his vision blur and almost fainted.
Jiraiya was already a difficult man to handle with five thousand shinobi, but now the Kazekage was also on the battlefield with eight thousand more shinobi.
Reinforcents for Kumogakure?
Fuck you, I have to protect myself first.
But what gave Onoki the biggest headache was Kurotsuchi.
She was his granddaughter, and although he did not let personal feelings guide him in decisions of war, she knew too many secrets of Iwagakure.
Many of them could now be in Konoha's hands.
There were too many aspects that needed to be urgently readjusted.
"Konoha..." Onoki muttered, staring at the map. "If they've deployed over ten thousand shinobi on our front... then how many will they send against Kumogakure?"
...
"Sasuke, do you really want to beco a Jinchūriki?"
In the Hokage's office, Funan looked at Sasuke in astonishnt.
He had ntioned that possibility to him before, but he didn't expect him to be so determined.
Was it Indra's influence?
Fugaku asked, "Hokage-sama, tell , does Sasuke have any chance of becoming a Jinchuriki?"
"Well... yes, in theory yes." Funan looked at Sasuke suspiciously before continuing, "I'm planning on forming a Jinchuriki squad. If you want, you can sign up. But, Sasuke, you're an Uchiha... and not just any Uchiha, but one with exceptional talent. Are you sure you want to beco a Jinchuriki?"
Sasuke said indifferently: "Hokage-sama, people with poor talent don't seem to be qualified to beco Jinchūriki, right?"
Funan tried to persuade him once more. "Sasuke, being a Jinchuriki is no easy feat, let alone for an Uchiha. Look, let's make a deal: if you give up on this idea, I'll consider training you personally. I'll make the Uchiha blood inside you boil even more."
Fugaku's eyes sparkled with excitent. "Sasuke, there's nothing to think about!"
"I have no doubts." Sasuke replied firmly. "I want to beco a Jinchuriki."
"Okay..." Funan sighed in resignation. "I see that your determination is real. Anyway, I was the one who ntioned this first. Now that I think about it, I'm starting to regret it."
"There is nothing to regret." Sasuke shrugged. "Hokage-sama, even if you hadn't ntioned it, do you think I wouldn't have found out about the Jinchuriki on my own? It would have only taken a few more days."
Funan looked at him in surprise. "Kid, since when did you look so mature?"
"Hmph!" Sasuke snorted proudly.
Funan smiled amusedly. Then, he took a report and threw it to Yako.
"Send it to Jiraiya as quickly as possible."
"Yes!" Yako sealed the report and sent it through a special channel.
"Fugaku, it's ti for you to take action!" Funan looked at Fugaku.
"Don't worry." Fugaku smiled slightly and said, "Kumogakure? After fighting for so long, I have long wanted to go there for a wander."
