Kakashi's intuition was accurate.
On a cliff outside Konoha, Obito leaned against a tree trunk, watching the chaos unfolding in Konoha. No expression could be seen beneath his tiger-striped mask, and the silence was somewhat terrifying.
As the mastermind behind Akatsuki, Obito constantly kept an eye on Konoha's situation.
After learning that Konoha was holding the Chunin Exams, he had traveled all the way from the Land of Rain. On one hand, he wanted to cause trouble during the Chunin Exams; on the other, he wanted to monitor the Amegakure ninja who had arrived in Konoha and see whether he could create chaos.
Ever since Nagato and Konan had annexed the Land of Grass and turned it into their window to the outside world,
Obito had suspected that Nagato and Konan had lost their motivation to carry out the plan to collect the Tailed Beasts. Instead, they wanted to lead Amegakure into competing for supremacy in the shinobi world and elevate it into one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages.
The actions of Amegakure's leading jonin also proved this point. He was secretly communicating with Konoha jonin.
Once Nagato truly began cooperating with Konoha, the plan to collect the Tailed Beasts would fail completely.
After arriving at Konoha Village, Konoha had not disappointed him. Even without his interference, Konoha had still descended into chaos. All that remained was to seize the right opportunity and ignite a great war between shinobi villages.
Just then, Obito noticed two black dots in the distance. Two massive Chakra signatures were rushing toward him.
He was very familiar with those two signatures. They belonged to his former best friend, Kakashi, and that savage dead last, Might Guy. When he saw the jonin vest on Might Guy, Obito could not help frowning.
