#359 - Uchiha Obito
#359 - Uchiha Obito
Soon, Orochimaru, who was expressing goodwill towards the Konoha ninjas, quickly integrated into their discussion.
Although Tsunade, the Third Hokage, and others inevitably harbored considerable wariness towards Snake Uncle in their hearts.
But since he was willing to come forward to help at this moment, that was naturally better than having him lurking in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to strike.
Therefore, in the following time, this group of Konoha high-level officials continued to discuss intelligence about the Akatsuki organization and various handling plans.
Liang Yue, Naruto, and Sakura, who had been silent and somewhat lost, were directly kicked out of the Hokage's office.
But that was fine too. The three of them, who hadn't seen each other for a while, took the opportunity to have a small gathering at the barbecue restaurant and exchanged some of the information they had.
Soon, unknowingly, time came to the evening~
After returning to the Hyuga clan and visiting the Hyuga clan leader, Liang Yue returned to his small courtyard.
"According to Naruto and Sakura, the One-Tailed Shukaku of Sunagakure has already been successfully captured by Akatsuki, and Gaara was only revived by Granny Chiyo yesterday.
Then, according to the plot, next~"
"It should be the capture of the Two-Tailed Jinchuriki of Kumogakure, Hidan and Kakuzu taking action, and then… Asuma~?"
"What was the cause again?"
"…Fire Temple, Master Chiriku."
"Speaking of Asuma, his progress in recent years should be very obvious, and as the son of the Third Hokage, after the old man regained his youth, he also benefited a lot.
Although he might not be able to beat Kakashi in a one-on-one fight, he should have been taught the innate advancement method by the Third Hokage, right?"
"Hidan, Kakuzu, forget it. Now the situation in Konoha is very good, and there are many strong people under its command. Once there is news of Akatsuki, Asuma may not necessarily be the one sent out."
… …
Time flies, and another week has passed in the blink of an eye.
Everything is proceeding according to the established process~
After experiencing the Gaara abduction incident, Naruto, deeply aware of his own lack of strength, is now motivated by shame and courage, and took the initiative to find Jiraiya to seek a way to become stronger.
Seeing this, Jiraiya went along with the flow and directly took this little blondie to Mount Myoboku through a reverse summoning technique to train in seclusion.
With the frequent actions of the Akatsuki organization in recent times, the Jinchuriki of various ninja villages have also been harmed one after another, and the entire ninja world has now become a dangerous place.
Within the major ninja villages, there is a faint sense of unease.
At this time, Naruto's initiative to seek knowledge happened to be in line with the wishes of a group of high-level Konoha officials.
Firstly, it fulfilled the little blondie's own wish, allowing Jiraiya to teach him personally and enhance his strength. Secondly, Mount Myoboku is isolated from the world, which can just guarantee Naruto's safety.
Similarly, Sakura, as the last remaining member of Team Seven, seems to have suffered a lot of blows after Sasuke defected.
But fortunately~ she also has a teacher.
Almost at the same time, while Naruto went to Mount Myoboku to study, Sakura also went to Tsunade, hoping to become stronger.
Unfortunately, Tsunade is now the Hokage and cannot spare any time to teach her on weekdays, so in the end, she simply sent her to Konoha Hospital to intern…
And Liang Yue, who had just spent a few leisurely days in Konoha Village, was quickly assigned a new task before he could even contact Hinata to develop their relationship.
The news that the Fire Temple was destroyed and the Akatsuki organization invaded the Land of Fire had already reached Konoha. Tsunade, as the Fifth Hokage, immediately issued a kill order.
She quickly summoned Liang Yue, Kakashi, and Team Asuma Ten, who were also ready to go, as well as several unknown Jonin to intercept and kill them.
This lineup can be described as luxurious…
… …
"I didn't expect that I would be the one sent out to perform the mission this time…"
All the way, activating the Byakugan and walking unhurriedly beside the leaping crowd.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Kakashi and Asuma and others were faintly protecting him in the middle of the team.
It seems that~ Liang Yue has unknowingly become an important person who needs to be protected…
Before him was an unusually dense forest. As far as the eye could see, there were countless towering trees, tens of meters high. Even with his Byakugan, he still couldn't see the edge.
The group of people jumped quickly between the thick branches like apes.
After a burst of rapid movement, they quickly arrived near the Fire Temple.
"There are only these two black market strongholds nearby. It seems that we need to split up this time."
"Well, let me lead one group, and Asuma lead the other group. Chūnqiū, Ino, Ueda, you three follow me."
At this time, Kakashi touched his chin, and then quickly made a decision.
Asuma didn't have any objections when he saw this, so he took Shikamaru, Choji, and two other Jonin extras. After the two sides exchanged glances, they set off one after another.
Liang Yue: "…It seems that Asuma is going to get hurt this time~"
… …
Sure enough, when their group arrived at the black market stronghold they were responsible for and threatened and lured the agent here, they found that the two members of Akatsuki were not here.
"We must rush to Asuma and the others as soon as possible!"
After discovering that they had missed their target, Kakashi immediately realized that the direction the other group was heading was likely to be where the two Akatsuki members were.
So he immediately led the crowd towards the black market that Asuma and others had gone to.
Fortunately, although the distance between these two black markets is not close, relying on the dense giant tree terrain of the Land of Fire, coupled with the crowd's mode of travel, it is estimated that it is only a little more than a quarter of an hour's journey…
In this way, the group of people rushed on the road with a hint of eagerness in their hearts.
However, just as everyone had leaped on the tree trunks in the forest for seven or eight minutes, and had traveled most of the way, an accident occurred.
A figure suddenly appeared in front of them, and then locked on to everyone's spirits.
I saw that the person was wearing a black robe, with several red clouds printed on the robe, and wearing an orange spiral mask on his face, leaving only one eye exposed.
That was a three-tomoe Sharingan!
When everyone saw this, their hearts suddenly trembled, and they stopped involuntarily.
Kakashi, as the leader of this group, frowned at this time and took out a kunai, but a few doubts quietly appeared on his face.
He was about to step forward, but was stopped by Liang Yue.
"You guys continue on your way, I'll deal with him."
Saying that, Liang Yue stepped out from the crowd and came to the front.
"Can you do it? Don't be brave."
Seeing this, Kakashi said hesitantly.
"Even if I can't beat him, I can leave at any time."
At this time, Liang Yue suddenly turned his sleeves over, and an elongated kunai appeared in his hand.
A "仙" (Sage) character was wrapped around the handle of the kunai.
Needless to say, this was naturally his unique formula designed for himself after learning the Flying Thunder God Technique!
After throwing the kunai to Kakashi, Liang Yue looked at Obito opposite, and at the same time two wide knives slipped out of his sleeves.
"Be careful."
Seeing this, Kakashi stopped talking nonsense, turned the crowd to the side, and continued to rush towards the other black market stronghold.
