"Forget it, just go there and ask that guy to find out what the situation is! Anyway, it doesn't seem to be very far away from here." Ueno Kei looked uncertain, and finally murmured this sentence, and with a slight force in his hand, he crushed the scroll in his hand.

Then, as if appearing out of thin air, a ball of flame burned the fragmented scroll and turned it into black ashes.

After Ueno Kei finished doing this, he chose a certain direction and jumped forward quickly.

About two hours later.

When Ueno Kei passed through an obvious forest and came to a place with a relatively wide view, a figure was already standing there quietly, still wearing a Akatsuki uniform with a high collar and a terrifying shark face.

That is Akatsuki, the once famous Mist Ninja rebel--Kisame Hoshigaki!

"We meet again, the famous Lord Blood Asura, Ueno Kei!" Kisame Hoshigaki's eyes flickered slightly, revealing an inexplicable look, and said with a sinister smile, but Ueno Kei didn't care about his expression and attitude at all. Kisame Hoshigaki is such a guy, why do you argue with him?

For Ueno Kei, it's just a matter of deciding whether it's an enemy or a friend. There's no need to worry too much about it, right?

"Okay, it's the information Itachi wants you to pass on." Ueno Kei stood expressionlessly in front of Kisame Hoshigaki and said in a cold tone, as if a superior was issuing an order, without considering Kisame Hoshigaki's mood at all. Similarly, Kisame Hoshigaki was not impressed by Ueno Kei's self-centered manner.

After simply shrugging, he began to describe the information in the previous scroll to Ueno Kei in more detail, and even explained some details to Ueno Kei. The reason why Kisame Hoshigaki did this was just a little bit, that man's request, that man named Itachi Uchiha's request for Kisame Hoshigaki...

Maybe some people have difficulty understanding the relationship between these two people. Why does Itachi Uchiha trust Kisame Hoshigaki so much? Why does Kisame Hoshigaki behave so submissively to Itachi Uchiha...

But in the end, except for the goddess of destiny, only the two parties involved knew about this matter, and they would not explain this matter to other people.

"In addition to Black Zetsu being held hostage, it seems that one of the other three people is also being forcibly controlled?" Ueno Kei said with a frown.

This is a bit strange. Didn't the three people in the previous intelligence report belong to a group? Now it seems that they are being coerced? This is really strange.

Kisame Hoshigaki laughed in a low voice, his voice still so insidious. "I don't know about this. I'm just telling you the information you want. In addition, there is another thing you asked Itachi to investigate before, but there are only a few suspicious places. You can go and see for yourself."

After that, Kisame Hoshigaki threw a scroll to Ueno Kei with his backhand. Ueno Kei took it smoothly and put it in his arms without opening it.

"The other thing is about what you want to ask Obito Uchiha and Madara, hum..."

Following Kisame Hoshigaki's words, Ueno Kei's brows became more and more frowned, as if his mood was getting worse.

Ueno Kei stood in the distance with a cold expression, his eyebrows seemed to be twisted into a ball. Kisame Hoshigaki was no longer here. After reporting the information, he left without anything. For Kisame Hoshigaki Before leaving, Ueno Kei didn't ask where he was going. If it was an S-level rebel ninja with this level of danger, Ueno Kei would definitely have to take care of it, but now not only Ueno Kei doesn't have that thought...

It's also because Itachi is here, so he doesn't need to worry too much.

However, Ueno Kei stood there for a long time, and after a long time there was still no movement, as if the whole person had entered a dormant state.

"Is this happening at this time?" Ueno Kei murmured in a low voice, his words full of fear. Itachi Uchiha seemed to have some guesses. Kisame Hoshigaki didn't know what he was thinking in his heart, but Ueno Kei could guess the identity of the visitor almost as soon as he heard these descriptions...

Of course, it's not 100% certain. After all, there are some things that you have to see in person before you can make a decision, right?

It's just that this timing is really bad. Obito is already troublesome enough. Adding an even more troublesome Kaguya Otsutsuki makes Ueno Kei even more troublesome. They don't even know what to do at this time...

With such a move, the shadow area in Ueno Kei's heart is really too big at this time...

The struggle on the surface, the conspiracy in the shadows, is a fourth party coming now? Ueno Kei I simply don't know how the next script will go...

"Forget it, let's take it one step at a time. According to Itachi and the others, their target has been exposed, so they don't dare to get too close. Fortunately, otherwise, some things really can't be hidden." Ueno Kei thought about it, made up his mind, and said resolutely, "Let's go to the direction where the three people are going first. So if the old man Hamura didn't deceive me, it might be more appropriate to deal with that side first."

A look of extreme reluctance flashed across Ueno Kei's face, and he said this, and even so, Ueno Kei didn't seem to be sure of winning, it was just a tone that could only be like this temporarily...

"If it is really them, this method should help me find them." Ueno Kei carefully took out a jade bottle from the center of his pocket, dripped a drop of blood from it, and wiped it on his forehead.

His eyes were slightly closed.

Suddenly, a different kind of aura rippled around Ueno Kei, as if it felt like blood, with a thick red color that flickered in and out.

Suddenly, the meridians around Ueno Kei's eyes suddenly burst out, and a white light flashed from Ueno Kei's eyes, just like the feeling when Hyuga Clan turned on Byakugan...

At the same time, Ueno Kei started Hand Seals with both hands quickly, and it was an extremely cumbersome mark. Even Ueno Kei, who was so powerful at this time, actually spent ten seconds to Hand Seals...

"Drink!" Ueno Kei shouted lightly, condensing a huge amount of chakra, and clasped his hands together.

A red magic circle was formed within three meters with Ueno Kei as the center, and there seemed to be some kind of bloody giant tumbling inside.

The moment the red magic circle appeared, Ueno Kei immediately let out a breath.

Half-crouching on the ground, he glanced coldly at the ground, then a hint of joy flashed across his face.

"Found it!" Ueno Kei snorted coldly. Immediately, with a wave of one hand, the magic circle disappeared immediately. Ueno Kei jumped up and disappeared into the shade of the trees, heading in a certain direction!

ps: There are many lessons today, so the update is late. The second update will be around ten o'clock, probably... um... (To be continued.
