An Excited Uchiha Obito / Taking the Stage

"Your cousin seems to be a rather conservative person and probably wouldn't be willing to participate in our operations, so we didn't invite him this time."

"Oh, I've already taken care of that. Shisui will be traveling with me. In that case, please inform him to come along as well."

"Oh?" Hozuki Guiyue's eyes lit up.

He turned to look at the Hozuki clan members at the doorway.

"Go quickly and invite Shisui- kun over for a chat."

After the Hozuki clansman quickly left, Hozuki Guiyue turned around and said with a smile, "Shingen- kun, the Mizukage... no, Karatachi Yagura has confirmed the final version of the agreement, and this agreement was orchestrated by your clansman. His purpose was to cause the renewal to fail and damage the relationship between Hidden Mist Village and Leaf Village. We've all discussed it, and we'll reveal your clansman's identity then."

"Catch them on the spot?" Uchiha Shingen stroked his chin, as if seriously considering something. "Wouldn't all the high-ranking officials of Kirigakure be present in a setting like this?"

"Yes, that old man, Genji, is here too, and the current successor of the Ninja Blade will also be present." Hozuki Guiyue's tone was full of confidence. "Plus Shingen- kun and Shisui- kun, even if the other side can control Karatachi Yagura, they won't fare well and will definitely be captured. Of course, I personally suggest that Shingen- kun and you should kill the traitor on the spot."

Killed?

Uchiha Shingen shook his head.

Seeing the questioning look on the other person's face, he said, "Each clan has its own rules. Traitors of the Uchiha Clan must be tried at the clan assembly."

"The Uchiha Clan has a strict family tradition." Hozuki Guiyue somewhat envious. The young people in their clan were very unruly, often disobedient, and acted on their own.

"So, how about we finalize the action plan today, once Shisui- kun arrives?"

"Of course, the sooner it's decided, the sooner we can prepare. Let me say this first," Uchiha Shingen said, "Although he is a traitor, this is ultimately an internal matter of the Uchiha Clan, and it's not convenient for others to handle it. Please understand."

"Of course, Shingen- kun, please rest assured, we will only deal with Karatachi Yagura and the others."

Uchiha Shingen nodded, a satisfied look on his face.

It's hopeless. Drifting like this, this entire clan is doomed.

It's no longer worth comparing.

Chapter Sixty-Four: The Excited Uchiha Obito

Having finalized their plan of action with the Hozuki Clan, Uchiha Shingen and Uchiha Shisui spent a peaceful day in Kirigakure.

Eat your meatballs when you need to, and rest when you need to.

Unlike in the Land of Grass, he dared not be so careless as to eat the food and water in Kirigakure, in case there were any new varieties.

This is where the advantage of knowing Sealing Jutsu comes in; he brought with him many bottles of water and Military Ration Pill, and compared to safety, these expenses were completely tolerable.

Adhering to the principle of not wasting time, Uchiha Shingen also did some basic Chakra training in the room.

Going to work is one thing, but spiritual practice must continue.

Sakurako was a good audience member; she didn't disturb him at all and just watched quietly without saying a word.

But on the very day that Uchiha Shingen was recuperating, the Hozuki Clan went around visiting friends and acquaintances.

It was also quite reasonable for the Mizukage Building to send out its ANBU to keep an eye on the Hozuki Clan's activities.

Uchiha Obito, using the alias Tobi, was in charge of the operation.

After using the new surgery he developed, he had a lot more free time, at least he didn't have to suffer in the office approving documents anymore.

He only needs to cast a genjutsu on Karatachi Yagura once a Genjutsu.

Karatachi Yagura executed his hypnotic suggestion perfectly: the Yuki Clan is dead, and next up is Hozuki's turn.

After wiping out several major clans, Kirigakure will only have one voice left.

The Mizukage rules Kirigakure, and he rules the Mizukage.

Without those troublesome ninja clans, he could finally go to the Land of Rain to check on the progress. Black Zetsu was currently managing things there alone, and he wasn't entirely at ease with him.

Black Zetsu doesn't seem very smart.

Moreover, as Madara's will, it was ultimately not aligned with his own.

And then there's Amegakure Hanzo getting in the way, so we should continue to instigate Uzumaki Nagato to further antagonize the surrounding major powers and eliminate Hanzo to rule Amegakure.

That guy's mastery of the Rinnegan is getting better and better; in his view, the time to seize Amegakure is approaching.

The next step is to use Amegakure as a base to support the Akatsuki's growth, and to leverage Rain Village's important position to instigate military conflicts between various countries on the continent, further increasing hostility and division between the villages.

He will then retain control of Kirigakure's resources, observe the situation, and when the time is right, coordinate with both sides to realize his plan.

That's what high-class style is all about!

After Uchiha Shingen and Uchiha Shisui entered Kirigakure, Uchiha Obito kept a close eye on them.

Seeing that the two of them had actually gotten involved with the Hozuki Clan, he was overjoyed and almost burst into laughter.

They've finally fallen into his hands! This time, we'll make that Dog Man lose face big time!

Although he was itching to join in, Uchiha Obito still managed to keep an ANBU watch on the Hozuki Clan's movements by commanding a large number of Hidden Mist Village ANBU members.

After nightfall, a group of ANBU appeared outside the Guest House.

Uchiha Obito a group of people, standing atop a fortress, looking down at the Guest House below.

Finally, the time came for another showdown with Uchiha Shingen.

And there was also the once-renowned number one genius, Uchiha Shisui.

Uchiha Obito's entire body trembled with excitement.

Hmm? You said half of it is White Zetsu? Well, sorry, once it's inside his body, it's his.

"1107, step forward." Uchiha Shingen's tone was slightly high.

Although they didn't know why their leader was so excited, the ANBU who followed him wisely kept quiet.

This leader was incredibly cruel, killing people at the drop of a hat.

"Minister." A member of the ANBU stepped forward respectfully.

Uchiha Obito pulled a letter from his pocket, held it between two fingers, and handed it to the back of his head.

"Give this to Uchiha Shingen and tell him to attend the signing ceremony on time."

"Yes, Minister." The ANBU respectfully accepted the letter with both hands, then swiftly disappeared into the street below.

Uchiha Obito a smile.

He had trained the Hidden Mist Village's ANBU to be very obedient.

Uchiha Madara was indeed a genius. The Genjutsu he developed was extremely fast to activate, had strong penetrating power, and was extremely effective against Tailed Beast Chakra. Therefore, Uchiha Obito was able to control Yagura Karatachi, who was Perfect Jinchuriki, in one Karatachi Yagura.

But the Genjutsu he developed based on that was also quite good.

While Uchiha Madara's Genjutsu was powerful, it could still be seen through by the powerful Sharingan and Byakugan. His technique was more subtle, and the only threat was Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan.

Shisui, who is skilled in Genjutsu, must also possess the Mangekyo Sharingan Dōjutsu, which is also Genjutsu.

Uchiha Obito had already made up his mind not to give Uchiha Shisui the opportunity to use Genjutsu.

First, use Kamui to teleport Shisui away, and then have some fun with Uchiha Shingen.

He was particularly looking forward to seeing Uchiha Shingen's expression when he was defeated by him due to his lack of expertise in Genjutsu.

Rumors? What a laughable tactic. Those lowly Mist Ninja won't utter a sound if I just intimidate everyone with my unparalleled power.

Karatachi Yagura would then kill the Hozuki Clan and their allies present.

Offending the Mizukage is an unforgivable sin.

Shingen, you've really disappointed me this time!

Too weak! Too incompetent!

The methods used in Leaf Village only make people weak without them even realizing it.

Despair is what makes people strong.

In this battle, he, Uchiha Obito, will wipe out the stable members of the Hidden Mist Village Clan in one fell swoop and sever any connection between the Hidden Mist Village and Leaf Village.

The Kirigakure is his now; it can only be taken away by someone else once he no longer wants it.

Uchiha Obito stared at the ANBU who had already reached the front of the Guest House, watching them rudely push open the door and barge in, and he was quite satisfied.

The Hozuki Clan is doomed, and this Guest House will be taken back. Knowing this and confident in it, the Hidden Mist Village ANBU will have no reservations about the Hozuki Clan.

After a while, the Hidden Mist Village ANBU emerged with an arrogant air, then quickly withdrew their aura and hopped back to Uchiha Obito, bowing respectfully.

"Minister, the letter has been delivered."

"Hmm..." Uchiha Obito maintained his calm tone, "What is that Uchiha Shingen doing?"

"He's with Sakurako from the Yuki Clan. According to our investigation, ever since he took that woman, he hasn't left the house. That woman has been serving him in the room."

"Pah! You lecherous bastard." Uchiha Obito spat, his tone full of contempt. "The Hozuki Clan deserves to die for teaming up with someone like that."

After saying that, he waved his hand and shouted with great force.

"Leave one group to keep watch here, the rest of you return to base."

"Yes!" the ANBU responded in unison.

Uchiha Obito turned and left; he needed to go back and finish off another Genjutsu.

As he instructed, several ANBU remained behind.

They went to different locations to keep watch.

They kept watching all night.

The one responsible for watching the window could only see that the window was covered by layers of curtains, but the lights in the room were on all night. All he could see were two figures constantly overlapping each other, making many movements. Every movement made him, ANBU who also knew of Sakurako's reputation for beauty, extremely envious.

Damn it, these Leaf Village people really know how to play; he didn't expect many of their moves.

Tomorrow I must help the minister teach those Leaf Village people a lesson.

The Guest House will belong to the Mizukage tomorrow, and the women there will surely be looking for good men to rely on. As for Sakurako, hopefully she'll be given to him.

While keeping watch and lost in thought, this member of the ANBU, who had been lying in wait until Tenten, already had dark circles under his eyes.

Staring out this window is so agonizing.

That guy inside was playing until well past midnight!

Will he sign the contract today or not?

As he was fuming, someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder from behind.

It wasn't just random shooting; it was a signal for their shift change, a rhythmic sequence.

Exhausted from keeping watch all night, the ANBU Hidden Mist Village turned around and said, "Don't worry, that guy's sleeping like a log. No need to be so careful."

He saw a pair of Sharingan, and his consciousness instantly vanished.

Chapter Sixty-Five: Taking the Stage

"You son of a bitch, I've put up with you all night!"

Uchiha Shingen was furious when he spotted the ANBU. If he hadn't wanted to avoid any complications, he would have given them a good beating.

What kind of idiot is this?

Last night, after Uchiha Obito, he used the Flying Thunder God Genjutsu for him in his room so he could prepare things.

As a result, he spent the whole night in the room having sex, while the group outside stared at him with extremely lewd eyes, and even twisted and turned their bodies around.

Uchiha Shingen was extremely annoyed.

You were having a fucking dream!?

I was just showing you what you truly wanted to see deep down. What did you see?!

The signing time was 3 PM, and he could still catch up on some sleep, but this thing outside was simply unbearable for him. With no other choice, he used Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport out again. This time, he didn't create an illusion; he simply erased the other party's memory and put them to sleep.

This thing is disgusting!

He raised his foot, but then, fearing he might accidentally kill the person with too much force, Uchiha Shingen withdrew it, muttering, "You got off easy this time," before using the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport back to his room.

Inside the room, Sakurako was staring blankly at a pile of Explosive Tag on the floor.

She really had her eyes opened last night.

When she was running the family business, she had dabbled in Explosive Tag, and she had seen the production process countless times.
