Ōnoki Was Dead?

"Um?"

"You're back, Madara Uchiha?"

Kabuto Yakushi only noticed that he looked a little haggard, but didn't pay much attention to it.

They must have been chased back by those Ninja from Konoha Village, right?

Obito Uchiha silent, ignoring Kabuto Yakushi's question.

"What's wrong? Was the Impure World Reincarnation not effective enough?"

"Impure World Reincarnation!"

Obito Uchiha instantly stood up, grabbing Kabuto Yakushi's collar tightly. "Your Seven Ninja Swordsmen didn't even make it into the Village Entrance, not a single one of them was hurt, and they were all taken care of by Shadow Clone!"

His face was full of anger. If it weren't for wanting to see the effects of the Impure World Reincarnation, he wouldn't have gone to Konoha Village in person.

He would never have encountered Kanami, nor would he have had his Mangekyō Sharingan gouged out by Kanami.

Anger!

An uncontrollable rage.

He gets a headache just thinking about the Impure World Reincarnation.

"Why? It was just a test. If they die, they die. As long as their DNA is still there, I can bring them back to life."

"Anyway, didn't you say there were tens of thousands of White Zetsu?"

Kabuto Yakushi grabbed Obito's hand and put it back.

"Also, don't grab my collar so easily anymore, I really don't like it."

"That's what Kabuto Yakushi said coldly."

He learned the White Snake Sage Mode in Ryūchi Cave!

You've already ascended to the level of a dragon, and you still dare to grab my neck?

If I still get grabbed by the neck after that, wouldn't all the White Snake Sage Mode I learned have been for nothing?

Faced with Kabuto Yakushi's threat, Obito merely snorted coldly and said nothing more.

In the past, he would have definitely retorted with a lot of words, but now he knows his situation. Without the Mangekyō Sharingan, he can only be considered a slightly stronger Ninja.

If he were to Brother Long this condition, he genuinely felt he couldn't win.

Especially if you're used to using blurring, what if, in a life-or-death situation, you suddenly have a brain fart and try to use blurring to dodge, only to get hit directly? Wouldn't that be an unjust death?

"I need to practice some proper Ninja combat techniques lately, damn Kanami!"

Obito muttered to himself.

His hatred for Kanami had reached its limit.

I'm going out for a bit.

He said this and left in front of Kabuto Yakushi.

Kabuto Yakushi tilted his head slightly.

He felt that something was off.

He quickly remembered that the masked man usually disappeared and left, but this time he pushed open the door and left.

"Are you tired of teleporting and want to try walking again?"

Kabuto Yakushi chuckled softly.

He didn't pay too much attention and continued his research.

He wants to surpass Orochimaru, he wants to become Orochimaru!

Three days later, the Shinobi World was once again abuzz with excitement.

Iwagakure, the Tsuchikage of Ōnoki, has disappeared!

"Have you heard? Onoki, the Tsuchikage of Iwagakure Ōnoki, has been missing for three or four days!"

"It's only been three or four days, isn't it normal that we can't find them?"

"An ordinary person would be normal, but that's the Third Tsuchikage! How could he be normal?!"

"Don't even mention it, if it were Noble or something, they might be indulging in a life of pleasure, but for Tsuchikage's status to disappear for three days, there's a very high chance something bad has happened!"

"That's true. I've also heard another version, but I don't know if it's true or not."

"What version? Tell us about it."

"Oh dear, what if it's fake? That would be spreading rumors."

"Say it! You've already said half of it, and I've even taken my pants off, and now you're saying you're not coming? You're driving me crazy!"

Seeing the anxious looks in the eyes of those around him, some even looking like they wanted to kill him, he paused for a moment before continuing, "Alright, then I'll talk."

"However, I want to state upfront that this is just hearsay, and I cannot guarantee its veracity!"

"Speak quickly!!"

"I heard that the Third Tsuchikage was furious because his previous attack on Konoha failed, and he couldn't even get into the Village Entrance. So a few days ago, he launched a sneak attack on Konoha again, but this time Konoha didn't show any mercy and killed him on the spot!"

"Hiss--"

Upon hearing this, everyone gasped in shock.

"How dare you say such a thing? This is smearing and spreading rumors about Konoha Village! Don't you know how strong Konoha Village is now? How dare you say such things!"

"They even said they'd kill the Tsuchikage! Doesn't that mean it's a fight to the death? Are they preparing for a national war?!"

"Terrifying, terrifying. It's just casual conversation. Let's not talk about these advanced topics. Who knows, one day we might suddenly be decapitated."

"Didn't you all force me to say it?"

"You don't even know what you can and can't say? You're hopeless. In my opinion, you should take this opportunity to run away. Just don't see your own bounty on the wanted poster."

"Crow it, don't talk nonsense!"

Cloud Village.

Upon hearing the rumors from the Shinobi World, Kitsuchi's expression changed completely.

"My father is in trouble? And he was killed by Konoha?"

"What on earth was he doing? He secretly hung out with the masked members of Akatsuki Organization a few days ago, and now this has happened so quickly!"

"We can't confront Konoha! We can only go ask that masked man from Akatsuki!"

With that in mind, Kitsuchi headed towards the Akatsuki Organization's base in the village.

No matter what, he was the First Tsuchikage of Cloud Village, and his father, the Third Tsuchikage, had disappeared. It was impossible for him to ignore it.

Soon, he arrived at the Akatsuki Organization and found Obito.

"Hello, have you ever met my dad?"

He was so polite that he didn't seem like a shadow at all.

Obito Uchiha glanced back at her. "What's wrong? What do you want?"

Their attitudes were completely contrary to the will of Heaven.

However, the Kitsuchi doesn't care about any of that.

He scratched his head, looking slightly embarrassed, and asked, "The other day, I saw you and my dad often together. I wanted to ask, do you know where my dad went?"

His enormous size and personality created a stark contrast, making him seem like someone who could be easily bullied.

Obito frowned slightly. "He's dead. Haven't you heard the rumors in the Shinobi World?"

"Dead?!"

"Aren't half of those rumors false?"

The Kitsuchi kept receding.

"Although most of it is fake, do you think no one would be fanning the flames behind such a large-scale rumor in the Shinobi World? And given Ōnoki's personality, if he were still alive, he would have come forward long ago given his reputation."

Obito calmly explained it to him.

"Why would he attack Konoha again? He knew he couldn't win... Could it be that you're cooperating with him again?"

Kitsuchi looked at Obito and asked.

Obito Uchiha's face instantly darkened. "What do you mean by that?"

"Ah... it's nothing, you misunderstood. I just wanted to know exactly how my dad died, sigh..."

The Kitsuchi waved its hands repeatedly.

"He was killed by Konoha. I just survived and was lucky enough to escape."

"That's what Obito Uchiha said coldly."

Kitsuchi's pupils dilated for a moment. "Father... Father is really dead?!"
