During this so-called journey through the Ninja World, Uchiha Yuzhen knew full well that he was after the Tailed Beast Affixes, as well as a tail's worth of their chakra to use in refining pills.
So the order didn't matter to Yuzhen. The order in which he encountered the Tailed Beasts was basically up to his mood.
"But this is a necessary compromise. Right now, outside Konoha, the only Jinchuriki whose identities are known for certain are Han and Roshi from Iwagakure, and the Fourth Mizukage—Karatachi Yagura—from Kirigakure!"
After all, at this point in time, he didn't even know whether the One-Tail had been sealed inside Gaara.
The Kazekage had been replaced, so whether Gaara could become Shukaku's Jinchuriki was anyone's guess.
And it was also unclear whether the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki from Takigakure was the young kunoichi from the original story—Fu!
After all, both Jinchuriki were far too young!
Jinchuriki were also secrets closely guarded by their villages. Before this, he had relied on his cheat and hadn't cared much about the power of the Tailed Beasts, so he knew little about them.
Fortunately, he had already brainwashed the Raikage of Kumogakure. The village was practically under his control, so obtaining the Two-Tails' Affix and chakra should be all but guaranteed.
As for Kirigakure, it was the base of Black Zetsu, Madara, and the current Parallel World Obito.
Yuzhen had already made preparations to launch a direct assault when the time came!
Regardless of who the Three-Tails and Six-Tails Jinchuriki were, he would forcibly take the Affixes and chakra he needed.
However, Uchiha Yuzhen planned to target Iwagakure first!
After all, the original story made it clear that Han, the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, and Roshi, the Four-Tails Jinchuriki...
Had always been at odds with Ōnoki, and Roshi had even led Han...
