[How is Uchiha Sasuke's observation?]
[Obito Uchiha asked.]
Black Zetsu shook his head.
"Konoha is too dangerous. Sending White Zetsu there would be like throwing good money after bad."
"We don't know yet."
"But based on the information gathered..."
"It has value."
[Obito Uchiha nodded.]
[Use White Zetsu; Black Zetsu should remain a safe option.]
[Black Zetsu is acting, but isn't it acting too?]
[He hasn't actually done many of the main story quests.]
"Itachi Uchiha's Mangekyou Sharingan was left to him."
"Then, I will explain what happened back then."
"Find an opportunity to push him to the opposite side of Konoha."
"The Fourth Shinobi World War has just begun, and there's still a lot we need to do, but we also have plenty of time."
[That's all.]
[A spiraling spatial fluctuation appeared around Obito Uchiha.]
"As long as Itachi Uchiha is alive, Sasuke Uchiha will definitely leave Konoha."
"Get the White Zetsu ready."
"I'll go check on the situation first."
"These two pieces are no longer of much use."
"Kisame can stay."
Black Zetsu said, "Let Sasuke kill Itachi Uchiha first, then use the Impure World Reincarnation technique."
"That way, we don't have to worry about its ulterior motives."
Obito Uchiha did not reply.
The spiral-shaped spatial fluctuations have already engulfed it.
"Keep an eye on Amegakure. I'll be back soon."
[Beep—]
[The words fell.]
The spiral-shaped spatial fluctuations have disappeared.
[Obito Uchiha has also fully entered the Kamui dimension.]
[...]
The Land of Fire.
[Within the territory.]
Itachi Uchiha lowered his head and looked down.
[at this time. ]
It is hidden in the dilapidated Temple of Fire.
[This place was just plowed by Kakuzu and Hidan.]
It's hidden right here.
[After catching my breath, I will return to my secret base for treatment and to prolong my life.]
It seemed to have sensed something.
[Slowly opening her eyes.]
[Her eyes are cloudy.]
[Looks incredibly tired.]
Its body has reached its limit.
[After escaping Konoha this time.]
[I didn't dare to immediately retreat to the secret base to heal my wounds.]
Therefore, the recovery is very slow.
Looking out at the gray, overcast sky.
A flicker of regret crossed its cloudy eyes.
[I missed the best opportunity back then.]
This is the best opportunity to eliminate Naruto Uzumaki, this unstable element.
[Nowadays.]
The ninja world was thrown into chaos because of him.
War...has come.
[It was still the massive Fourth Shinobi World War.]
Both the Land of Fire and the Land of Wind have become useless.
The Third Hokage and others of Konoha suffered even greater humiliation.
Itachi Uchiha leaned back against a partially burned wooden pillar.
"This is just the beginning."
"Many people will lose their lives because of this."
Itachi Uchiha closed his eyes in pain.
Sasuke's changes made it very uncomfortable.
Because this is not what it wanted to see.
However.
[Having fled all the way here.]
It seems to turn a blind eye to the poverty within the Land of Fire.
[I don't pity those people, but rather I pity the powerful and wealthy for losing such a useful tool as ninjas.]
[They implicitly supported those in power and wealth, and then, once again, belittled themselves.]
This time, the target of belittling is no longer the Uchiha clan, but all ninjas.
"Aren't the Uchiha clan members human?"
At that moment, a voice came from outside the hall.
[A spiral-shaped spatial fluctuation appears.]
[Obito Uchiha slowly appeared.]
[call out--]
Meanwhile, Itachi Uchiha had already awakened his Mangekyou Sharingan.
"Save your energy."
"In your current state, you still think you can compete with me?"
Obito Uchiha did not enter the temple.
[A sound came.]
Itachi Uchiha remained silent.
It just sat there, completely still.
"Go back to where you belong."
"I'm giving you a chance."
Itachi Uchiha remained silent.
At this moment.
[Obito Uchiha, disguised as Tobi in White Zetsu, suddenly appeared in front of Itachi Uchiha.]
[The eyes beneath the mask also revealed the Mangekyou Sharingan.]
[Look at Itachi Uchiha's current state.]
Obito Uchiha remained outwardly calm and composed.
But they were also on guard.
This person is highly skilled in illusion magic.
Without absolute certainty, Obito Uchiha did not intend for any further unforeseen events to occur at this critical juncture.
In addition, the injury on his back hasn't fully healed yet.
[Wearing the White Zetsu Abi only allows it to maintain its normal state; it doesn't provide any boost.]
After all, recovering from his injuries consumed most of Tobi's abilities as a White Zetsu.
Otherwise, it's questionable whether Obito Uchiha would even be able to escape the underground base beneath the Kannabi Bridge.
[call out--]
Suddenly.
Obito Uchiha took a step forward.
[The mechanism has been activated.]
Countless shuriken and kunai shot towards Obito Uchiha.
However, without exception, they all passed through Obito Uchiha's body.
[Ever since I was taught a lesson by Minato Namikaze's Flying Thunder God Technique, second stage.]
Obito Uchiha didn't dare to pretend anymore.
"There's no need to embarrass yourself with such a trick."
[He's very good at playing with kunai.]
[Then what? ]
Itachi Uchiha remained motionless, like a statue.
It naturally knew that physical attacks were ineffective against the masked man in front of it who called himself Uchiha Madara.
"Get lost."
"Go back to your post and wait to die."
"You're the one you hoped would kill you."
After saying this, Obito Uchiha turned and left.
Seeing Itachi's current state, Obito was still taken aback.
I didn't dare to do it myself.
"Etherealization also has a time limit."
[Itachi Uchiha's voice sounded from behind.]
Obito Uchiha paused in his tracks.
[He narrowed his eyes slightly, without turning his head, and said:]
"You can give it a try."
Itachi Uchiha remained silent and made no further movements.
It is brewing a fatal blow.
If you're not in good form, you should naturally avoid pointless offensive maneuvers.
However.
[Until Obito Uchiha left.]
[And make it go back for treatment immediately.]
Even Itachi Uchiha didn't find an opportunity to make a move.
Very cautious.
Similarly, it is also very cautious.
[Just as Obito Uchiha said, if it didn't go back, it really wouldn't have survived until its younger brother found it.]
Itachi Uchiha slowly rose to his feet.
It's time to get going.
The original plan has been revised.
It didn't believe the masked man who claimed to be Uchiha Madara.
But there was nothing that could be done; its days were numbered.
The battle with Sasuke certainly took a toll on it.
The original plan has been slightly modified.
Looking at the desolate scene outside the temple.
Itachi Uchiha walked unsteadily towards his post.
["Sass gives..."]
[Looking at the White Zetsu rising from the ground before him.]
Itachi Uchiha offered no further resistance and collapsed to the ground.
On the other side.
[Formerly the border of the Land of Rain.]
Kisame Hoshigaki sat cross-legged.
Samehada swam freely in the water nearby, occasionally coming up to him and nuzzling him.
Kisame Hoshigaki slowly opened his eyes.
"The intelligence is accurate."
Obito Uchiha appeared before him without his noticing.
During this time, Kisame Hoshigaki has been healing his injuries here, unlike Itachi Uchiha, who is unaware of what is happening outside.
"The plan has changed."
[Obito Uchiha was about to speak.]
Suddenly.
A complaining voice came from afar.
["oioioi~!"]
"Kakuzu, you bastard, wait for me!"
"Damn it, can we really find Kisame in this godforsaken place?"
"You can have Itachi Uchiha. I don't want to fight someone like that. That kind of dirty blood, even the evil god wouldn't like it!"
