I'm Uzumaki Naruto, I don't need approval

Chapter 146 146. Namikaze Minato’s speculation

After reporting the information, Shisui showed a worried expression.

Different from the last confrontation with Orochimaru and Scorpion in Uzushio Village, this time Uzushio Village was completely exposed to the sight of all countries, and it was impossible to hide it even if it wanted to.

Orochimaru and Scorpion returned to strength, but after all, they were both rebellious ninjas who had left the ninja village and did not have much energy.

The Great Country Ninja Village is different. In addition to Kage-level experts, they also have thousands of ninjas under their command. They can kill Uzushio Village simply by relying on their numbers, not to mention economic sanctions.

Naruto didn't pay much attention to this, neither Iwagakure nor Kumogakure was a big threat.

As long as they show corresponding strength, these ninja villages will naturally adopt corresponding attitudes. Moreover, the ninja village and the daimyo have never been of the same mind. While the daimyo relies on the force of the ninja village, he has always been afraid of the ninja village.

At this moment, he was more concerned about a guest arriving in the Land of Waves, Nagato, the leader of the Akatsuki organization.

Unlike the other rats hiding in the Land of Waves, Nagato has never concealed his huge amount of chakra. As early as the moment he arrived, his malicious sense was aware of Nagato's existence.

It's just that Nagato didn't come directly to the door, but wandered around the country of Waves slowly.

Thinking of this, Naruto turned to Shisui with a serious look on his face and said: "There are guests coming. I'm going to entertain the guests. You first watch the group of rats and don't let them take the opportunity to cause trouble. I'll be back as soon as I can."

"guest?"

A flash of shock flashed through Shisui. Someone who could be called a guest by Naruto was obviously not an ordinary person.

Naruto had never shown such a serious attitude, so he asked: "Lord Menma, are the Five Shadows appearing in the Land of Waves?"

Noticing the change in Shisui's expression, Naruto smiled and said: "Stronger than the Five Kages, I want to meet the leader of Akatsuki, who is considered the strongest in the ninja world today."

As soon as these words came out, Shisui, Zabuza, and Haku's faces became gloomy and uncertain.

Stronger than the Five Shadows, they could no longer imagine the specific strength.

After hesitating for a moment, they seemed to have made up their minds and said, "Lord Menma, do you need our help? We might be able to play a role."

Naruto shook his head slightly: "Forget it, if a fight really breaks out, be prepared to retreat at any time."

After saying that, Naruto left the company building and flashed to the street outside.

Shisui, Zabuza and the others sighed softly. What Naruto said was true. They were simply unable to participate in such a high-level battle. They could only protect themselves.

Zabuza looked at Shisui and said, "Shisui, who do you think will win between Menma-sama and the leader of the Akatsuki organization?"

Shisui's face was uncertain, and he shook his head slightly and said: "I don't know either. I hope Menma-sama wins, but the leader of the Akatsuki organization cannot be a weakling. It can only be said that the outcome cannot be judged until the results come out."

There is no difference between this and not saying anything... Zabuza was speechless for a while.

After a pause, Shisui added: "Maybe there won't be a fight. There is no big conflict of interest between us and the Akatsuki organization, and there is no need for both parties to decide whether to live or die."

"That's true." Zabuza relaxed his mind and began to look forward to the battle.

The only time he saw a battle at the level of the Five Kages was when Naruto suppressed the rampaging Fourth Mizukage. At that time, it was almost a one-sided crushing. He had never seen an evenly matched battle. It must have been very exciting.

…

Walking on the streets of Wave Country, Naruto tried to locate Nagato's body.

As a time traveler, he knew that the Heavenly Path was only one of Payne's Six Paths. The one who really controlled these puppets was Nagato behind him, and the puppet control distance was not far away, only a dozen kilometers at most.

But after looking around, he couldn't find where Nagato was hiding.

Besides, Konan and Nagato are inseparable. Konan, who has mastered Paper Release, is also a shadow-level powerhouse and is very difficult to deal with.

Thinking of this, Naruto asked the Kyuubi inside his body: "Nine Lama, have you found the location of Pain's controller? If you can't find it, it will be difficult."

Kyuubi shook his head: "I also found his location. He didn't seem to exude any malice. Could it be that he didn't discover the identity of the Jinchuuriki, but came here because of your identity as the leader of Uzushio Village..."

"makes sense."

Naruto was stunned, it seemed that this was really the truth.

But why did Nagato come to the Land of Waves for nothing? There are no tailed beasts here. Could it be that he came here for a trip, or was Obito instigated to come here to deal with him...

Naruto's presence of an enemy also attracted Minato's attention, and he asked curiously: "Isn't the leader of the Akatsuki organization the masked man? Is there anyone else?"

"The leader of Akatsuki is indeed someone else. He is a ninja named Pain. He has the Samsara Eye."

"Reincarnation Eye?" When mentioning the Reincarnation Eye, Minato Namikaze seemed to remember something and said, "I remember that Teacher Jiraiya adopted three orphans more than ten years ago, and one of them has the Reincarnation Eye."

"But they died later. Could it be that the leader of Akatsuki robbed them of their reincarnation eyes?"

Naruto glanced at Namikaze Minato and said in a faint tone: "The Rinnegan Eye is the eye of the Six Paths Sage. How can the owner die so easily? If you don't believe me, ask the Nine Lamas."

Kyuubi snorted coldly, raised his tail and said, "Naruto is right. It is not so easy to die with the Rinnegan. Maybe he has changed his appearance and identity like Naruto, but he is still the same brat as before."

"What Nine Lamas said makes sense... In the ninja world, dead people are not considered dead at all."

"Since I can make Shisui fake death and escape, it's not surprising that other people have similar ideas. Maybe the masked man is actually the vest of some Uchiha kid."

"The leader of the Akatsuki organization may be a student of Mr. Jiraiya..."

Facing Naruto's personal belongings, Namikaze Minato fell into deep thought, and he suddenly thought of his student Obito.

But he quickly shook his head, how could Obito be a masked man? In just one year, it was impossible for Obito to grow from a chuunin to the point where he could threaten himself, and there was no reason for Obito to manipulate the Nine-Tails against the village.

Moreover, the masked man has been manipulating the bucket behind the scenes. If it is really Obito, it is impossible to attack Lin.

Wait... Namikaze Minato's face changed slightly, as if he realized something. After looking at the noisy Naruto and Kyuubi, his face became a little gloomy.

If Obito transformed into the masked man after Rin died, what the masked man did in Kirigakure would become reasonable. The masked man was seeking revenge against Kirigakure, so he let Kirigakure kill each other, and he has been in ruins ever since.

The attack on Konoha was Obito's revenge for being late and failing to save Rin.

It was his own fault for failing to fulfill his promise to his students, but if the Nine-Tails Rebellion was really caused by Obito, Obito would really be the sinner of the village.
