Important News from Black Zetsu

Outside the Akatsuki's base.

Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki were still immersed in their conversation with Shirou Emiya, and they were both somewhat surprised by Shirou Emiya's attention to Sasuke Uchiha.

"What should we do?"

Kisame Hoshigaki gripped his Samehada, sighing with apparent resignation, "Itachi, if your younger brother becomes the Leader of Akatsuki in the future, it doesn't seem like a good thing for your future life, does it?"

A hint of worry appeared in Itachi Uchiha's eyes.

Because he never imagined that his younger brother would be valued to such an extent, especially by such a prominent figure as Emiya Tsuchihara.

To be honest..

The Leader of Akatsuki is a hot potato.

Indeed.

Itachi Uchiha was somewhat relieved that Sasuke Uchiha was valued by Shirou Emiya, and even that Sasuke Uchiha might have the opportunity to awaken the Rinnegan in the future.

But·

Itachi Uchiha's greatest wish was for his younger brother to live a peaceful life in Konoha and to have the ability to protect him in the future.

Just be an ordinary Konoha ninja in the village.

Unfortunately, Shirou Emiya issued the mission.

They had no way to refuse Shirou Emiya's mission.

Even if they choose to refuse, there are plenty of other members of the Akatsuki who will take on the mission. Who knows what those guys will do when they're on a mission?

It might not work.

Breaking Sasuke Uchiha's leg and bringing him back would be too lenient a punishment.

"We need to tell Obito about this."

"After all, Obito obtained the Rinnegan of the organization's leader and has been waiting for us to report information about the Akatsuki. It seems he is waiting to take over the Akatsuki— "

"Now it seems—"

Kisame Hoshigaki looked at Itachi Uchiha and offered him another perspective. "It seems that this important figure Shirou Emiya, doesn't really want Obito to come back and take over Akatsuki. He even wants Itachi's younger brother to take over Akatsuki when he grows up."

"How about—."

"Itachi simply killed his own brother."

"This will prevent Itachi from facing another problem in the future, and also allow Obito's plan to take over the Akatsuki to continue."

¥

Itachi Uchiha's heart skipped a beat, but he chose to delay Kisame Hoshigaki's suggestion, saying, "I need to think about it carefully."

Wrong!

His younger brother Sasuke seems to be in a bit of danger!

If Obito Uchiha knew that his younger brother had the opportunity to awaken the Rinnegan in the future, and was even regarded by Shirou Emiya the successor to the Leader of Akatsuki, he might have killed him!

Because they know that the conflict Obito Uchiha and Shirou Emiya is about control of the Akatsuki. Now that Shirou Emiya wants to support the twelve-year-old Sasuke Uchiha, will that idiot Obito Uchiha really agree?

Even if

However, there is a possibility that if he cannot bring Sasuke back to Akatsuki for protection, Obito Uchiha might actually find an opportunity to kill Sasuke in order to thwart Shirou Emiya's plans.

That's true.

When Obito Uchiha received this news, he was completely taken aback.

Obito Uchiha that Orochimaru's Past Hokage would be able to defeat Shirou Emiya Impure World Reincarnation, but unexpectedly, the Past Hokage were defeated 4-0 by Shirou Emiya.

All right.

Obito Uchiha had no choice but to settle for second best, hoping that if he obtained the Rinnegan, he could get Emiya Tsuchihara and Black Zetsu to come and negotiate with him, and honestly discuss the Eye of the Moon Plan and the Akatsuki. Who knew that this guy would not be threatened by him!

What the hell?

Is it possible to have a spare Rinnegan?

Does that Sasuke Uchiha still have a chance to awaken the Rinnegan?

"Etc"

When Orochimaru learned of Obito Uchiha's thoughts, his mind nearly went blank for a moment. He couldn't understand Obito Uchiha's idea. "You mean, we betrayed Shirou Emiya to obtain the Rinnegan, and now we still want to negotiate with Shirou Emiya?"

Obito Uchiha glanced at Orochimaru from afar.

What else?

The key to the Eye of the Moon Plan lies in the Rinnegan.

With the Rinnegan in his own hands, can't he force Shirou Emiya to negotiate?

"Should we deal with that brat Sasuke?"

As Obito Uchiha pondered the information Kisame Hoshigaki had sent him, he couldn't help but furrow his brow. He certainly didn't want another pair of Rinnegan to appear in the Shinobi World.

At least don't show up at this time.

The only problem is that Itachi Uchiha needs his younger brother's Mangekyo Sharingan awaken, and rashly killing Sasuke Uchiha seems to provoke Itachi Uchiha's displeasure. However, Orochimaru suggested another approach at this moment. "It seems you're caught in a dilemma. If Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki are your people, then why don't we find an opportunity to lure that brat Sasuke Uchiha over—"

Orochimaru was still somewhat dissatisfied with the fact that he had gained nothing from the Chunin Incident and had not even achieved his main objective. Upon suddenly hearing that Sasuke Uchiha, to whom he had once planted Curse Mark, had a chance to awaken the Rinnegan, he immediately proposed another idea to Obito Uchiha.

If possible, he might be able to take over that brat Sasuke Uchiha's body and have a chance to replace him and obtain the power of the Rinnegan in the future!

However.·

In this way, after receiving information from Itachi Uchiha about Obito Uchiha's Orochimaru to take Sasuke Uchiha away, Itachi realized that his younger brother had another option for his future.

Although Orochimaru seems a bit too human compared to Shirou Emiya Itachi Uchiha's brother, Orochimaru Shigenori, who went to extremes as a medical ninja, Orochimaru's strength wasn't particularly great, making him relatively easy for the Uchiha to defeat.

As for Shirou Emiya, that important figure has high moral character, but his strength is a bit too much!

While Itachi Uchiha pondered these things, he never truly considered the thoughts of his younger brother Sasuke Uchiha.

This older brother didn't care about so much. He believed he could arrange the safest path for Sasuke Uchiha, just like this man once thought that killing his parents and all his clansmen would protect his younger brother.

However, Sasuke Uchiha is an independent person.

Just like now, Sasuke Uchiha wants is to gain more power to kill the Uchiha, rather than continue down the path that others have laid out for him.

Unfortunately...

Sasuke Uchiha to find a way to become stronger.

Meanwhile, his teammate Naruto Uzumaki is getting stronger and stronger, and he even has Jiraiya, Jonin Kakashi Hatake teacher.

"I'm sorry, Sasuke, Sakura."

Naruto Uzumaki said goodbye to them somewhat embarrassedly, "I'm leaving Team 7 for a while to go on a training trip with Jiraiya- sensei..."

"That's really—"

Sakura Haruno's face immediately lit up with joy.

If Naruto Uzumaki leaves Team 7 at this time, wouldn't Team 7 only be left with her and her beloved Sasuke-kun?

"I see."

Sasuke Uchiha frowned, not because he was saddened by his and Naruto Uzumaki's departure, but because he was worried about his own future.

Because Naruto Uzumaki has found the path to becoming stronger in the future.

What about myself?

What should I do about my future?

If this continues, when will I be able to defeat Itachi Uchiha?

When Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno, and the others saw Naruto Uzumaki off as Jiraiya, they were filled with confusion about their future, unsure of where their path lay.

Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin, never intended to take him as a disciple.

Kakashi Hatake noticed Sasuke Uchiha's confusion, but he had no idea how to teach his disciple. He was also quite busy during Tsunade's tenure and couldn't take care of Sasuke Uchiha Sakura Haruno for the time being.

At this time

That was precisely the moment when someone took advantage of the situation.

Orochimaru wore his hood, and Orochimaru Obito Uchiha hid beside him, secretly observing Sasuke Uchiha.

Since Orochimaru did not suffer any particularly serious losses during the Chunin Exams, except for the loss of three important Curse Mark personnel, he had no choice but to personally come to abduct Sasuke Uchiha.

Orochimaru watched Sasuke Uchiha's every move in Konoha. He understood better than anyone else the state of confusion a person was in regarding their life, a state that often required guidance.

That's really something.

This is the best opportunity to abduct this child.

At the same time.

Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki also arrived outside Konoha Village.

Even though they reported the Akatsuki's intelligence to Obito Uchiha, they still had to come to Konoha to continue carrying out Shirou Emiya's mission.

Even if—

They're just here to put on an act.

They also have to give an explanation to the Master of Akatsuki.

"Obito and Orochimaru have arrived too—"

Kisame Hoshigaki brought up the orders Obito Uchiha had given them. "We'll pretend to infiltrate Konoha and cause a ruckus, let Obito and Orochimaru take Itachi's brother away, and then go back to report to that important person—"

"It's hard to hide it from them, isn't it?"

Uchiha lowered his eyes slightly.

"There's nothing we can do about it—"

"But as long as we don't bring back Itachi's brother."

Kisame Hoshigaki chuckled and brought up their next plan, "Obito can force that important figure to renegotiate the Eye of the Moon Plan."

"..."

Itachi Uchiha immediately fell silent.

In that case—

Doesn't Shirou Emiya have any objections?

Shirou Emiya always knew that he and Kisame Hoshigaki were people Obito Uchiha.

He was Double Agent who not only sent messages to Obito Uchiha but also reported to Shirou Emiya about Orochimaru and Obito Uchiha against Sasuke Uchiha.

However, Shirou Emiya doesn't seem to be taking any action.

Is that important figure going to let Orochimaru Sasuke?

Certainly·

Impossible.

Even if Shirou Emiya appears magnanimous, he could not possibly remain indifferent to the betrayal of him by Obito Uchiha and Orochimaru, especially since they wanted to abduct someone he had long admired.

However, Shirou Emiya needs a little time.

It takes time for Black Zetsu and White Zetsu to find their other subordinates.

The Rain Country.

Black Zetsu finally reported an important message to Shirou Emiya.

Since the Chunin Exams ended, Black Zetsu and White Zetsu have been relentlessly searching for the other Rinnegan. Now they have finally found the person who secretly took the other Rinnegan from Shimura Danzo.

They even discovered a secret that the other had been hiding.

"Wei Yuan, you'd never guess—"

"That guy named Orochimaru Yakushi Kabuto's subordinates, is the one who secretly obtained the Rinnegan that Shimura Danzo!"

"That guy has hidden the other Rinnegan, and he's even mastered Orochimaru's Impure World Reincarnation. He's been secretly collecting the corpses of powerful Shinobi World, and I've already had him secretly discover Madara's corpse—"
