Chapter 143 The pretender
Uchiha Obito's accusations were quite serious. Even though Uchiha Itachi joined the "Akatsuki" organization because of the situation, at least Itachi has not yet left the organization. As Obito said, the action to capture the Nine-Tailed Tsukiriya did not affect the original oral agreement. As long as you do not deliberately target Konoha, everything else can be explained.
Moreover, Obito's question is quite tricky and difficult to answer. With Konoha's situation at this time, it is almost impossible to let Uzumaki Naruto go out without special protection in the short term. As for whether Jiraiya is in Konoha Village, even with Bai Jue's super reconnaissance ability, he may not be able to fully grasp Jiraiya's whereabouts.
Obito's problem is to express his attitude and remind Uchiha Itachi that the "Akatsuki" organization abides by the agreement and does not fully attack Konoha, so Uchiha Itachi needs to do his best to the organization.
"You don't need to remind you of this." Uchiha Itachi also knew that Obito didn't mean to answer it himself, and he didn't bother to argue about such trivial things. If trusting such things is lost, it will be very difficult to rebuild it again, not to mention that there is no trust between the two. "Next time I don't want someone to interfere in my affairs..."
After saying the last words, Uchiha Itachi withdrew from the room and left directly without waiting for Obito to express his opinion.
And Kisame, who was waiting outside, saw Uchiha Itachi coming out, walked up to ask, "How is it talking about it? Itachi?"
"On average." Uchiha Itachi described the conversation just now in a concise way.
"Didn't the talk break? That means this matter has passed?"
"Yes." Uchiha Itachi nodded. The process of the conversation was irrelevant, the result was the important one.
"That means, we are still companions of the same organization?" Kisame Ganji was quite satisfied with the result. "It's not bad, but if there is another time, my samarin will not be so easy to talk to."
In the end, Ganji Kisame also chose to follow Uchiha Itachi's decision, and at least there was a partner here that could be negotiated.
...
"Just finish the talk like this?" Seeing Uchiha Itachi leave, Jue pushed the door and walked in. Seeing Obito looking at the crowd outside the window, he didn't know what he was thinking.
Hearing Jue's words, Uchiha Obito turned his head and replied, "Didn't you hear it just now?"
"The result is pretty good, but it's a pity for Deidala." Jue did not find where Deidala was locked up. He searched all the regular places, and there was no news about Deidala. Konoha also had some areas with strict garrisoning, and with Jue's reconnaissance ability, it was difficult to get in.
"Didala doesn't have to worry, I've arranged it..."
"Have you really arranged it? I'm not someone else, don't say this to lie to me..."
"Okay, it's not really arranged, but there's already some clues. The inside line in the Land of Earth is exerting influence and promoting some things. As long as there are still concerns and not trying to destroy Konoha, we actually don't have the strength to seek from Konoha, and we still have to find another way."
This time the operation to seize the Nine-Tail Kowloon Jiri exposed many problems. Even Konoha had suffered huge damage not long ago, even Naruto was killed in battle. Now when the leader of a village is vacant, the organization dispatched four formal members but failed to do anything about Konoha Village. It can be confirmed that except for the leader Payne's Rinpoche, several elite masters were indeed unable to take down opponents of the five major ninja villages head-on, and the organization mobilized all to complete a task, which is almost impossible for a loose ninja organization like "Akatsuki".
"You can do it. If it doesn't work, you must find a suitable candidate to replace it before sealing the tailed beast. However, the plan is progressing quite badly now, which is too far from what was originally expected, and it has also exposed a lot of information from the organization. Forget it, even important news such as our target is the tailed beast has been leaked."
I am definitely a little dissatisfied with the current situation. I have been preparing for such a long time, but there is no result.
Uchiha Obito did not complain about the extreme, but asked another question: "You said that the Samka Eye used the information from the Vientiane a few days ago. Is it clear that the investigation is now made?"
The topic shifted to the Reincarnation Eye, and Jue suddenly felt spirited: "Two suspicious targets were entangled, but there was no valuable information for the time being."
"Who can keep you helpless? The patriarch of the Hinata family?"
"One of them..." Jue nodded to confirm Obito's doubts, "Black eye's ability to detect is too strong, and I can't get too close to investigate the news under the alert of so many Baiyan. The information of the other people has been investigated for a long time. A Satsukizuki, an ordinary female Shinin, a slave of the Hinata family, and a Konoha's illusion-type female Shininin. After investigation, it was not the target I was looking for. On the contrary, the actions of a Konoha Chuninin are very suspicious..."
"Zhongnin?" Obito frowned and asked casually, "What's the name?"
"Shuimu, do you know each other?"
"Is it him?" Obito said after thinking about it, "I have some impression of it. An ordinary ninja with a relatively qualified one. He has had several dealings at Konoha Ninja School before. Are you sure he is suspected?"
"Believe in my intelligence capabilities, Obito, this person is really abnormal." Jue is very sure of his inference, "Based on my investigations over the past few days, I found that there are quite a lot of secrets hidden in this person."
"Secret? Is this person more suspicious than the Hinaga Clan leader?"
"No, there is no specific information, and it is impossible to judge. However, the two people had an extremely secret contact a few days ago, and the Hinaga family deliberately made some concealment..."
"Tell me about this person in detail."
"A few months ago, as you said, it was very ordinary, and it would be the most appropriate to describe it as mediocre. And it seemed that Konoha's situation was not very good, but later it was safe. None of the above matters. What's important is that some time ago, this Mizuki suddenly showed extraordinary sealing skills, and he received unanimous recognition in Konoha in a short period of time. The medical ninjutsu is also very excellent, and the chakra control is excellent. Although the physical skills qualifications are still relatively ordinary and the physical fitness is not very outstanding, you should know that this disadvantage is the best way to make up for ninjas of a certain level. This Mizuki has all the qualities to become a super strong person."
"What is the reason for the change?" Obito was also very interested in the reason why a person changed so drastically in a short period of time. This situation is more common in the Uchiha family. Dramatic changes lead to the opening of the Sharingan, and then his temperament changes greatly, such as himself. However, it is rare for others to see.
"It's not clear. According to the investigation, Mizuki was once severely punished for some reason, and then was seriously injured in a mission, and then these special talents were discovered."
"Sealing Technique..." Obito seemed to remember something.
"It seems you understand. Think about the Uzumaki family, physical fitness is one aspect. Ninjas with special talents in sealing techniques are quite rare, and they are even rarer than blood-resistance boundary, otherwise they would not have been exterminated."
Many powerful ninjas can do it by using one or two-hand sealing techniques, but few of them can really make achievements in this area.
The sealing materials accumulated by the Uzumaki family for hundreds of years have been looted. Only those who have reached a certain level will know how terrible it would be if they are used well.
"Investigate it as soon as possible. News from the Rinnegan is very important. Fortunately, Scorpion is selfish. When he came back to report, he did not mention these things. Do you know or deliberately conceal it? It's okay. Don't let Payne know for the time being..."
"You're talking about it easily. I won't say anything about Hinata Hirata. Ninjas who are proficient in sealing techniques must be guys with excellent chakra control and perception. It's really not easy to monitor such people..."
"Okay, don't complain. I will go back first and discuss with Payne in the next step." Although this action was logically not necessary to explain too much to Payne, it would be better to communicate in person for future cooperation.
"Also, you have to seize the time and go to the Water Country as soon as possible. The situation in the Hidden Fog Village is getting worse and worse. It is becoming increasingly difficult for us to control the situation. Why don't we get the tailed beast first?"
"I'll go and see the situation before dealing with this."
...
In Konoha Village, Mizuki is rarely able to relax. Although there are still some potential threats that have not been resolved, at least there are no imminent problems that need to be solved.
The attack during the day was repelled, and after the incident ended, it was nothing to do with Shuimu. Shuimu just happened to catch up and helped him. No one had posted a task to him, so naturally no one would care about him. In fact, his current situation should be in the stage of recovery after serious injury. Except for Shimura Danzo, who covet his private possession, there would basically be no one who would deliberately pay attention to him. As for the actions of grabbing a Bai Jue clone, Shuimu didn't think there would be any problems.
When I was relaxed, Shuimu likes to read books carefully, sort out recent research materials, etc. This may be the most suitable way to relax. The second copycat man, Zhuli, has been formed for a short time. He has just taken over the research for a few days and has not made any major breakthroughs yet. However, some things can be understood in a preliminary way, just like the first-hand information sent by Xiaochun not long ago that Shuimu was reading.
"There are so many ghost things like curse seals that want to add private goods inside!"
Looking at these preliminary conclusions written in cipher text, Mizuki couldn't help but feel sympathy for Sasuke's experience. A child who knew nothing was actually making up for him.
In the separation experiment mentioned by Xiaotzuka, the chakra extracted after the spell of Uchiha Sasuke's spell erupted was divided into five parts of varying numbers. The largest of these five parts is a very ordinary chakra, which tends to be fire and thunder, which is obviously Sasuke's own chakra. Secondly, it is a large part of it, which is natural energy, which is very difficult to control. It can be found in the preliminary experiment that its destructive power is amazing. As for other functions and specific usage methods, there are not many discoveries yet.
The other three strange things, although they have not yet communicated face-to-face with the copycat man Chuli, can be roughly inferred by looking at these information.
One of them is very active and has a strong erosion effect on Sasuke's chakra. Although it is weak, it seems to have a very strong attack ability and seems to have some connection with other existences in some unknown way.
Another unknown energy is relatively more stable. Like the previous one, there are some external connections, but the darkness and indifference revealed in it are too obvious. It is completely like a bystander, but it only exists tenaciously in the curse chakra. It has a very deep connection with natural energy and can easily be re-fusion.
The attribute of the last energy is too troublesome. Over so many days, Shuimu could not even make any operations or changes to it. It existed quietly, free from the limitations of sealing techniques and quickly disappeared without any clues or information.
If we guess based on the current situation, the first type of unknown energy is the method left by Orochimaru to use the reincarnation of the corpse. Then the second type is Shigego, the source of the mantra seal, or the backing of the snake immortal in the Dragon Cave. The third type is not accurate to define. It is unique to the body of Indra's reincarnation, or left by the Six Path Immortal Otsutsuki Hae-Yuan. This is not easy to speculate.
"Sure enough, there are traps everywhere in this world, and if you don't pay attention, you will be hit."
Judging from what we have discovered now, Mizuki had a question before. Why was the pharmacist able to practice snake immortal art after transplanting Orochimaru's cell to himself, but Orochimaru failed to practice the immortal mode? Judging from the results, there are no qualification problems if Orochimaru cannot practice snake immortal art. As for intelligence alone, there are only a handful of people who can compare with Orochimaru. According to existing discoveries, it is very likely that Orochimaru cannot practice snake immortal art. It is not that he cannot, but that he does not want, or, in other words, he simply disdains the snake immortal art that has obvious hidden dangers.
Perhaps Orochimaru does not have the intelligence advantages of Mizuki and cannot accurately judge it, but Mizuki can discover the disadvantages of the snake immortal art in a short period of time. It is unreasonable that Orochimaru's years of research will not be able to find any problems here.
"The mantra is a good thing. Everyone is opening the back door inside, maybe I can use it too."
Although there are some achievements that are not very useful for the time being, they are better than nothing. The slow progress in research on the properties of natural energy is what Shuimu feels helpless. Only by thoroughly understanding this pure and impurities-free natural energy can we start to try to practice the immortal mode.
...
Early the next morning, Shuimu came to a flower shop that had not opened for many days. Starting from today, in recent months, especially the stormy scenes in the past month, it should come to an end for the time being. Sometimes Shuimu will be glad that he not only participated in it, but also survived intact. Looking at the names of the victims on the Soul Consolation Monument, Shuimu also felt that he could not ask for too much.
As a flower shop owner who is a little home and a small business, plus a fiancée, if he were in his previous life, Shuimu might be satisfied.
