Chapter 65: The 3 Vices. Money, Alcohol, and s.e.x!
Itachi gradually relaxed and ignored the topic of his younger brother and solemnly spoke, “Tomorrow we are going to the Iwagakure with Sasori. I hope you don’t die there.”
“Itachi-san, that’s really dangerous…”
Kisame grins and continues, “We were both members of the Akatsuki brought in by Obito-san before he’s been kicked out. If I die, who will become Itachi-san’s next teammate?”
Itachi’s eyes suddenly changed.
As a spy from Konoha’s Anbu, he immediately a.n.a.lyzed the true ident.i.ty of Hoshigaki Kisame. This guy was one of Uchiha Obito’s people!
Itachi got up and left the lake.
Kisame stood in place and stared at his back. The smile on his face never waning, “It’s truly unfortunate… Even with a Sharingan, your sight is still clouded…”
The moment Itachi returned to his room, Zetsu appeared, “Itachi, if you have any information you need to tell Obito during this period, tell me, and I’ll pa.s.s it on.”
Itachi frowned, his eyebrows scrunching as he looked at Zetsu coldly, “Is this Shimura Danzo’s order?”
Hearing Itachi’s words, Zetsu’s expression darkened.
To deal with Obito’s mistakes, they decided to get Obito to contact Danzo to see if he could be used.
When Kakashi returned to Konoha, Shimura Danzo immediately began chatting with Kakashi, probably unwilling to deal with the trouble Obito would bring.
So Obito did not bother to cooperate with Danzo.
‘d.a.m.n. You know you’ve already been kicked out, yet you’re still so picky?’
Unfortunately, he was chosen by Uchiha Madara.
Black Zetsu could only sullenly smile and open his mouth to speak to Itachi, “Itachi, were you influenced by Pain and Konan? Obito always obeyed Madara’s will!”
White Zetsu sighed quietly and said, “That the idiot Obito was too impatient at the earlier causing him to be mistaken as Danzo’s spy. We will clear up this misunderstanding soon, and Obito will return to the Akatsuki. “
Itachi nodded, his face suddenly turning serious, “After we return from the mission in Iwagakure, I want to see him.”
Black Zetsu agreed to Itachi’s request.
Itachi’s eyes flashed, and he said in a low voice, “I’m very curious about the way Uchiha Obito intends to clear his suspicion… If he can’t return to Akatsuki, my situation within Akatsuki will be very dangerous, and Pain and Konan will doubt me sooner or later..”
White Zetsu replied with a chuckle, “We recently heard that Hanzo contacted Danzo about preventing the resurgence of Akatsuki.
It’ll just so happen that Konan will be taking her team there to attack an Ame Ninja outpost. Somehow she’ll find out the truth there…”
This was the advantage of intelligence.
They could control the situation by simply pa.s.sing certain bits of information to Konan.
For example, Shimura Danzo’s plan to a.s.sa.s.sinate Uchiha Obito and Uchiha Obito’s betrayal of Konoha.
When Konan attacked the Ame and Konoha ninjas, she would find part of the ‘truth’, and naturally, her suspicion of Obito would be cleared.
Since Uchiha Obito was the one who guided Nagato’s Rinnegan’s development, as long as the suspicion on Obito was cleared he could return to Akatsuki.
As for the information that Konan got when she arrived, it would naturally be half-true and half-false.
However, the fact that Hanzo contacted Shimura Danzo for a meeting was true.
Shimura Danzo wanted to use Uchiha Obito’s intelligence to return to his position as Root’s leader. He also wanted to get in contact with Hanzo to get Hanzo’s support for his bid to become Hokage.
After leaving Akatsuki’s base.
Black Zetsu asked in a gloomy voice, “When will Danzo and Hanzo meet?”
“According to the situation, it will be in these two days.”
White Zetsu shook his head, his expression was a little confused, “But this time Konan brought the two little ghosts, they’re very slow. Will they be able to catch up?”
Black Zetsu snorted coldly, “As long as she discovers the meeting between Konoha and Ame, she will definitely be unable to hold back and attack them. At that point, she will find the truth.”
This time, Konan and Uehara’s speed was a bit slow.
With the return of Uehara and Konan, their mission to attack the Ame ninja outpost started again, but this time there were two more people.
When they learned that they would be performing a mission together, Kimimaro’s eyes turned round from surprise, “Can we really follow along to perform a task?”
“I didn’t want to take you.”
Uehara glanced at Konan helplessly and sighed, “But Konan-senpai thinks I should have two teammates…”
This was standard in the ninja world.
In other words, this was Jiraiya’s legacy.
Konan was now teaching Uehara exactly per Jiraiya’s method.
She was the team leader, and its members were Uehara Naraku, Kaguya Kimimaro, and Yuki Haku.
Konan hoped that Uehara would lead a normal ninja life instead becoming a full member of the Akatsuki, spending every day with a group of neuropathic ninjas…
“Uehara, were we dragging you down?”
Haku was little confused, as he asked a little seriously.
He was obviously a young boy, but his surprisingly good appearance made him look cuter than a girl, especially since Haku was very sensible, always giving people the illusion that Haku was the big sister of the family.
“Oh, that’s not true.”
Uehara touches Haku’s head and whispered, “I’m also very happy to be your teammates…”
Even though his original intention was to gather a few lovely subordinates, the rewards given to him by the system were too rich!
Who would have expected an easy mission to give him a s.p.a.ce-time skill?
In short, the system had easy and difficult missions, but the rewards for some of the easy ones were abnormally good. They would allow him to become powerful very quickly.
As a result of joining the Akatsuki, instead of a Ninja Village, he started on h.e.l.l mode and little disciple mode.
[Side Mission: Join a ninja squad (1/1)]
[Reward: Skill, Mystery and Compa.s.sion.]
[Mystery and Compa.s.sion: Create a shield around a teammate that completely negates a single blow, then teleport to their location. Consumes 100 Chakra. Cooldown, 160 seconds.]
This skill was good for supporting and escaping!
However, Uehara had gain the ability to teleport from Destiny after losing to Tsunade, so he didn’t care for the teleportation function of Mystery and Compa.s.sion. On the other hand, he really liked the shield that could block any blow.
Konan, who was leading the team, turned her head to look at the three teenagers, focusing on Uehara. This disciple of hers didn’t seem to dislike her arrangements too much.
According to Jiraiya-sensei, there were usually two men and one woman in a group, as it would stimulate the fighting instinct of the boys, while the girl would reconcile the relationship between the two teammates, thus forming a unique bond.
It was a pity that there were no girls on this team.
For now, she could only improvise with Haku, who looked like a girl.
Konan fiddled with her blue hair and looked at Uehara, who was talking with Kimimaro and Haku, as a smile creeped onto her face.
A Ninja must abstain from overindulging in the three vices, money, alcohol, and s.e.x.
It’s not a bad thing for Naraku to come into contact with girls now, right?
