Naruto: This Uchiha wants to return to his ancestor Otsuki

Chapter 99 Target: Yin Jiuwei (Part 2)

The blisters are rising more and more, as if boiling water is boiling.

The movement under the water soon aroused Anko's vigilance.

In the unfamiliar ruins of Uzushio Village, no one can guarantee whether the abnormality is caused by aquatic monsters or hostile ninjas.

But Anko is different from ordinary ninjas after all, she is very courageous.

Not even bothering to take out the kunai, she silently approached the water and carefully observed the bottom.

The underwater ruins are deeper than imagined, and the shadowy edges of the buildings can be vaguely distinguished through the faint light of the setting sun.

At the bottom of the invisible puddle, you can observe the chaotic water flowing endlessly. It is an underwater turbulence that ordinary ninjas cannot pass at all.

Hongdou intuitively believed that the puddle was not naturally formed and there might be a secret hidden in it.

And what the senior brother is looking for is probably down here.

"If you don't trust me, you can try the ability of your left eye Sharingan."

"It's up to you to personally witness whether I will harm the village."

But Orochimaru did not give any reply to Genshi's actions, and instead allowed Kirigakure's ninja team to return.

This was not over yet, he continued to torture for information about Kirigakure Village.

Of course, Ghost Lantern Full Moon doesn’t know how to crack it, but Keyuan does.

Earlier, Gui Deng Shuiyue relied on the "Water Transformation Technique" to dive and explore many times, and many of the secret techniques of sealing retained by the Whirlpool clan were harvested.

In the current timeline, Mochi Zabuza has not even taken the chunin exam, but is just following the Kirigakure ninja on missions.

Momochi Zabuza.

After discussing with him, Orochimaru's attitude towards Kirigakure Village made Yuan feel that his teacher also had the idea of ​​using Kirigakure Village.

"Shisui, don't say that."

Therefore, Kakashi was particularly disgusted with the surveillance mission assigned by Konoha's top brass.

Twenty-seven death masks were placed in the storage scroll, and the solution to 'Sealing the Ghosts away' that I had worked so hard to find was finally revealed today.

Just then, the water surface suddenly calmed down.

He sent ninjas to meet with Orochimaru and proposed that Kirigakure help Orochimaru accumulate side skills and then seek the position of Hokage.

The snake-like water-shaped body quickly wrapped Kakashi tightly.

Kakashi's face hidden under the mask showed a look of surprise.

The water flowing around his body also paralyzed Kakashi's body.

What's more, what does cracking the altar have to do with the purpose of this mission?

The mission that Kakashi received was to monitor each other's actions while searching for the secret herb to tame the jinchūriki with Yuan.

"You see, don't your friends live well?"

Shisui agreed with the captain's actions.

"Captain, more detailed information has been asked. The Kirigakure team that Momochi Zabuza is in has a total of four people. Two of them have returned to Kirigakure Village from the Land of Fire, while Kiden Mangetsu and Momochi Zabuza have returned halfway.

Daowuochao Village ruins and other tasks."

Unexpectedly, Gui Deng Man Yue, who originally had the upper hand, suddenly succumbed.

But now, Kakashi only had one question left in his mind, and he spoke calmly.

Ghost Lantern Full Moon held Hong Bean generously and looked around vigilantly.

When Anko was not paying attention, a strange ninja had already taken her hostage.

Among them, Gui Deng Man Yue has performed this task many times and has an unusual understanding of the ruins of the entire Uzumaki Village.

By transmitting the thunder attribute chakra to himself, the water-type human body wrapped around Kakashi was paralyzed again.

"Konoha ninja, you have such a strong tone!"

'This guy Uchiha Bubu, it's his first time leading a team on a mission, and he's actually rough!'

While being nervous, Anko calmly recognized that the other party was wearing a Kirigakure forehead protector.

The water-shaped human body collapsed instantly, and from the puddle at Anko's feet, a pale hand reached out and grabbed Kakashi's shoulder, who had made a sneak attack.

Although at this point in time, Kakashi still didn't know that his left eye was Obito's Mangekyō.

Otherwise, while fishing, Hongdou thought that it would be impossible for him to miss any anomalies in the surrounding waters.

Yuan was too lazy to talk nonsense with Ghost Mangetsu. After using the passive ability to absorb chakra to temporarily paralyze the opponent, Yuan opened his Sharingan to torture all the information about the ruins of Uzushio Village.

Shisui was equally shocked as Kakashi, but he understood Yuan's character and strength better.

"Konoha ninjas, I have a hostage on my hands! If it's convenient, can you show up and talk?"

Two Kirigakure ninjas were entrusted by the "Seal Master" Haru Yu to search for ruins at the old site of Uzushio Village, trying to find relics related to the sealing technique.

Kakashi said calmly.

"Shouldn't you, who knows all this, be a corpse?"

Yuan immediately decided to sneak into the underground water and crack the altar mechanism.

Behind him, Shisui wearing an ANBU mask was dragging a thin Kirigakure ninja whose face was covered with bandages, with only a pair of eyes exposed.

But before the full moon of the ghost lamp could take action, a huge noise like a thousand birds chirping exploded behind him.

Having said that, Gui Deng Man Yue planned to use red beans as bait.

Because there is less chakra.

Therefore, this seventy-year-old Kirigakure elder plotted against Orochimaru, who coveted the position of Hokage.

As for the reason why Momochi Zabuza and Kito Mangetsu appeared in Uzushio Village, Ling Yuan felt that sometimes such things as fate were quite strange.

The twenty-seven death masks in the Namen Hall are obviously the keys to the altar under the water.

Kakashi also didn't go far. He was lurking in the ruins at the moment, opening his Sharingan and observing the Kirigakure ninja who was using the 'Water Transformation Technique'.

"And isn't it too much to use your companions as bait?"

Thunder-type chakra with paralysis function invaded the body, and Ghost Lantern Man Yue, who used the "Water Transformation Technique", barely maintained his water-shaped body and froze in place.

After using the bait twice in succession, Mangetsu, a child prodigy from Kirigakure who can skillfully use seven ninja swords, temporarily hijacked Kakashi.

In Kirigakure Village, due to the purge of the blood step family, the conflict between the third generation Mizukage and the Kirigakure blood step family has become irreconcilable.

But as Shisui told the information about Kirigakure Village, Yuanze thought about the changes in Kirigakure Village after the mission to the Kingdom of the Sea.

The situation was critical, but Hongdou had the time to complain about his senior brother's nerves.

The ninja who stole the Death Mask was actually Uchiha Abuchi! I even investigated the theft incident with him.

"So, can you tell me your purpose of coming here now?"

"The four of them visited Orochimaru, one of the three ninjas, half a month ago."

But the current situation is very bad. The Kirigakure ninjas have long discovered the Konoha ninja team led by their senior brother Uchiha Abuchi and set up an ambush in advance.

He was quite interested in this matter.

Yuan's question was very reserved, but a turmoil arose in Kakashi's mind.

Not wanting to, in front of Kakashi, Yuan took out the Death Mask and handed it to Kakashi.

Beside Yuan, Shisui, who was carrying Momochi Zabuza, walked out, silently helping Anko release the genjutsu and assisting Kakashi in breaking free from the shackles of the water escape ninjutsu.

Therefore, after completely controlling Momochi Zabuza, Yuan did not take action to subdue the demon Mangetsu who held Anko hostage.

"Ninja of Kirigakure, the reason why I kept you alive is because you didn't hurt my friends!"

The source of this sealing technique comes from the waters where Hongdou is fishing.

But he, who is responsible for investigating the theft of the Death Mask, has not caught the person who stole it even now.

"Don't talk nonsense. If you don't want to die, tell me, what are you Konoha ninjas doing here?"

Shisui opened his Sharingan and easily asked for information about his team from Momochi Zabuza.

On the top of the tallest ruins, Yuan's figure stood with the afterglow of the setting sun behind his back.

Otherwise, the moment Gui Deng Man Yue takes action against Hong Dou, he will be a corpse.

"If so, why did Brother Yuan give you the death mask?"

Without waiting for Kakashi to take further action.

"Are you doing all this for the Hidden Leaf Village?"

Chunyu, the seal master of Kirigakure Village, once performed a sealing technique using senjutsu chakra as a medium on Yuan during the mission in the Kingdom of the Sea.

"Konoha ninja, I really have no ill intentions."

The ruins of Uzushio Village are located on an isolated island in the sea, across the sea from the Kingdom of Water where Kirigakure Village is located.

At such a close distance, Kakashi couldn't avoid it no matter how fast he was.

"Don't move, Konoha ninja! Otherwise, my 'Water Iron Cannon Technique' will easily take your life!"

Kakashi, who witnessed it all the way, always believed that Uchiha Yuan was the successor of the Will of Fire just like himself.

"By the way, before that, there's something I want to remind you, Kakashi."

He once found an altar in the deepest part of the water, with grooves enough to hold twenty-seven masks.

Of course, there was another less important reason why Yuan didn't take action in a hurry.

Yuan asked with a smile without explaining the origin of the mask.

"My mission may not conflict with yours, and I don't want to antagonize you."

"Can I say that I don't mean any harm?"

He didn't even have time to react, the chakra disappeared like a flood, and Ghost Lantern Man Yue, who was powerless to resist, could only force out a smile.

Behind Anko, a transparent aqua human-shaped hand resembled a gun and was pressed against her temples.

Meeting the ninjas from Kirigakure here did not surprise Anko.

Thinking that the Uchiha clan was suspected of causing the Night of the Nine-Tails, Kakashi's suspicion of Yuan reached its peak at this time.

"Kakashi, if I told you that the key to completing this mission is hidden under that altar, what would you do?"

If he doesn't intend to kill with one strike, Kakashi rarely uses his shadow clone to make a feint attack.

No matter how you look at it, Uchiha Yuan is not a person who would harm Konoha Hidden Village.

Only then did the true form of Ghost Lantern Mangetsu emerge from the puddle at Anko's feet. He pointed his hands at Kakashi like a gun.

But the two kaleidoscopes’ ‘divine power’ spaces are connected.

However, the real situation is completely different from what Hongdou guessed.

Many of them include the idea of ​​transferring Kirigakure's internal conflicts to target the Murakami of Konohagakure.

What on earth is Uchiha Abuchi going to do? Is he going to harm the Hidden Leaf Village? But he who presides over the Chuuriki taming plan is clearly contributing to the village! Not to mention Uchiha Abuchi's outstanding performance on the battlefield.

The opponent's ninja team must not only include the female ninja preparing dinner, not to mention the surroundings are too quiet.

Anyway, it has been exposed. He deliberately attracted the attention of the Konoha ninja. In his opinion, it was a way to distract the other party's attention.

As a participant and planner of the "Kirigakure coup" in the original work, the opponent still has value in Yuan's observation.

As the long-term ruling elder of Kirigakure Village, Master Yuan realized that if he continued, Kirigakure Village might be divided from within.

"But you failed! I can only be kind enough to talk to you temporarily."

At that moment, countless questions flooded into Kakashi's mind.

Yuan pointed to his left eye.

Ghost Man Yue slowly raised his hands, and just when he was holding Kakashi hostage, Yuan had already arrived in an instant, reaching out and patting Ghost Man Yue on his shoulder.

Yuan listened silently, there was no need for him to take action when Zhishui was interrogating for information.

The shimmering ripples reflected the scene on the water's edge.

Yuan patted Kakashi on the shoulder.

Compared with the information obtained by Momochi Zabuza, Kito Mangetsu, who has explored the ruins of Uzushio Village many times, wants to know more.

Yuan was quite looking forward to Kakashi using the 'divine power' of his left eye kaleidoscope in advance to release Obito from the autistic space.

The originally deceased old friend and the guilt-ridden Kakashi reunited in advance, which must have been an interesting scene.

What's more, there is Minato Namikaze's soul sealed in the Death Mask.

Yuan intuitively believes that the next development will become interesting.
