Uchiha Qingfeng and Deidara entered the Land of Earth and used the little Tailed Beasts to search for Little Nine-Tails. After learning that Four-Tails and Five-Tails were traveling together nearby, Qingfeng planned to confront their Jinchuriki the next day.

• Uchiha Qingfeng urged the innkeeper to bring their food, and the innkeeper prioritized their order.

Uchiha Qingfeng and Deidara followed the tailed beasts’ directions to the Land of Earth’s capital, where the Four-Tails and Five-Tails Jinchuriki had gone. They found the pair at a movie theater and bought tickets so Qingfeng could enter and capture them.

• Uchiha Qingfeng and Deidara traveled toward the Jinchuriki’s location with Little Four-Tails and Little Five-Tails guiding them.

• The little tailed beasts led Qingfeng to a movie theater and said the Jinchuriki’s main bodies should be close enough to sense them.
• Qingfeng put the little tailed beasts into Kamui and tried to enter the theater, but the greeters directed him to the ticket window.
• Qingfeng bought two tickets, failed to persuade the ticket seller to keep his change, and went inside to find the Jinchuriki.

Uchiha Qingfeng and Deidara attended a theater, where Qingfeng searched for the Four-Tails and Five-Tails Jinchuriki while watching a stage play. He recognized the actress Yukie as Fuhua Xiaoxue from Naruto’s story, and the next play was announced as Princess Revenge.

Uchiha Qingfeng watched Fuhua Xiaoxue’s stage play while identifying the Four-Tails and Five-Tails Jinchuriki—and suspecting the Six-Tails Jinchuriki was nearby. After the performance, he seized the two Jinchuriki before they could recognize him aloud.

• Uchiha Qingfeng kept the Four-Tails and Five-Tails Jinchuriki in sight as Fuhua Xiaoxue performed onstage.

• Xiaoxue and Uchiha Qingfeng reassured the production crew, and Sister Hua trusted him because he was handsome.

Uchiha Qingfeng failed to meet Bubble, the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, who had fled the production crew, but learned that Little Nine-Tails had left with him. He realized Bubble had likely been the bubble-blower he noticed above the stage and decided to pursue the pair.

• Uchiha Qingfeng waited for Bubble while Fuhua Xiaoxue and Sister Hua discussed the performance and the production crew’s plans.
• Fuhua Xiaoxue told Uchiha Qingfeng that Bubble had gone out and had not returned, so he decided not to search for him openly.
• Sister Hua revealed that the little fox Fuhua Xiaoxue had adopted had left with Bubble.
• Fuhua Xiaoxue described the fox as yellow, gluttonous, troublesome, and nine-tailed, confirming to Uchiha Qingfeng that it was Little Nine-Tails.
• Uchiha Qingfeng asked whether the fox could talk.

Uchiha Qingfeng searched for Little Nine-Tails at Fuhua Xiaoxue’s former room, but found it gone and set out to pursue it. Meanwhile, Little Nine-Tails tried to bring Utakata to meet him, but Utakata refused and escaped inside a bubble.

• Fuhua Xiaoxue told Uchiha Qingfeng how Little Nine-Tails had taken over her room, then led him to see where it slept.
• Uchiha Qingfeng found no trace of Nine-Tails Chakra and left to seek information about the Six-Tails Jinchuriki or follow Little Eight-Tails.
• Little Nine-Tails confronted Utakata and asked him to meet Uchiha Qingfeng, but Utakata suspected Qingfeng had serious ulterior motives.
• Utakata said he trusted no Ninja, then used his straw to create a bubble and floated away to escape.

• Little Nine-Tails’s Soul Scattering Iron Claw failed to break Utakata’s bubble, and Utakata fled upward inside it.
• Uchiha Qingfeng sensed Little Nine-Tails’ Chakra outside the city and used Flying Thunder God Technique to rush toward it.
• Little Nine-Tails gathered its remaining Chakra into a tiny Tailed Beast Ball as Utakata reinforced his defenses with twenty-one bubble layers.
• Utakata confidently faced the attack, but Little Nine-Tails’ Tailed Beast Ball shattered the bubbles and struck him before he could draw on the Six-Tails’ Chakra.
• An explosion followed, and Little Nine-Tails thought it had silenced Utakata to hide its humiliation.

Utakata survived Little Nine-Tails's Tailed Beast Ball with the Six-Tails's help, then drove the weakened fox into a standoff and fled. Uchiha Qingfeng sensed the battle and headed over, planning to go to Konoha himself to borrow the Nine-Tails's main body.

• Utakata survived Little Nine-Tails's Tailed Beast Ball when the Six-Tails shielded him with its slime-covered tail.

• Uchiha Qingfeng entered the Kamui Space, where the little Tailed Beasts suspected he planned to capture their original bodies.

• Uchiha Qingfeng promised Utakata could return after becoming useful to him, while warning that otherwise he could seek the truth from his teacher in the Pure Land.

Uchiha Qingfeng confronted Roshi and Han in the Kamui Space and used Sharingan genjutsu to secure their agreement to join his organization. He began extracting the Four-Tails, but planned to leave Little Four-Tails inside Roshi so the Jinchuriki would survive.

• Uchiha Qingfeng awakened Roshi and Han and asked them to join his organization, but they initially refused.
