You Have to Know How to Do Everything / How About I Drink with You?

In this way, only Uchiha Obito.

When that world comes to fruition, Rin won't have to sacrifice herself for the village, Kakashi won't lose his father, and he won't have to watch Rin, who was willing to die, perish from the Chidori he was originally going to use to attack the Mist Ninja Chidori.

He treated his master's wife, Uzumaki Kushina, like a son, and instead of becoming Jinchūriki, he became the Hokage.

Everyone will be happy.

He can also go back to his grandmother, back to Kakashi and Rin, and eventually find happiness.

Oh, and there's this Dog Man too. You like drinking tea, right? I'll let you drink to your heart's content, I'll brew it for you in a teacup, and we'll all watch you drink it!

No need for Hidden Mist Village, just let it be random.

Uchiha Obito dressed the same as before, the only difference being that he had changed his mask and was no longer wearing bandages.

Bandages are still uncomfortable and don't breathe well.

He mingled with a caravan, following the same route as last time.

Unlike last time, he's going to be the man behind the Raikage.

He knows this well.

The last mishap was purely accidental; the Perfect Jinchuriki is somewhat unpredictable, and the interference of the Dog Man also contributed to the situation.

She dispelled his Genjutsu herself? He doesn't believe it! Don't even think about getting angry at him!

He had served Mizukage for a period of time, and his mental fortitude was exceptional. He had already discerned the truth—it must have been Uchiha Shisui.

He's gotten a little carried away by his role as Mizukage, so when Kakuzu brings up the topic of organizing funds, he subconsciously switches into the mode of receiving the finance department.

If the acting is poor, people will probably be suspicious.

Just be more careful next time, it's a small matter.

At worst, I can just bribe Kakuzu to shut him up.

Once he becomes the man behind the Raikage, he'll have plenty of money. Then, won't that money-grubber Kakuzu be one of his men?

The caravan gradually slowed down, and the surroundings became familiar.

They arrived at the entrance to Kumogakure.

Built on a mountainside Kumogakure) is a strategically important location for the ninja army, offering numerous passes and defenses.

Uchiha Obito's identity, just like last time, was that of a relative of the caravan leader; at least, that's what everyone in the caravan thought.

He Uchiha Obito, the master of Genjutsu!

He didn't just freeload; he secretly resolved any trouble he encountered along the way.

The Cloud Ninja guarding the gate were quite familiar with the caravan leader.

"Hey, brother, you've brought your nephew again?"

The Cloud Ninja saw Uchiha Obito.

"Is your face still not healed? You can try going to the village hospital. The medical staff there might be able to help. The village is preparing to open its hospital to the public. Although the fees are a bit high, Medical Ninjutsu is amazing."

As he spoke, the Cloud Ninja sighed somewhat.

"To have your face injured at such a young age, what a tragedy."

Uchiha Obito, not wanting to speak.

Why do these Cloud Ninja always like to chat with people whenever they come? You're the gatekeeper, can't you be a little more efficient?

Otherwise, with so many people... well, there aren't many this time. Why is business so bad?

"Sigh, there are indeed fewer people lately, but there's nothing we can do about it." Noticing Uchiha Obito gaze, the Cloud Ninja said, "There are rumors of war lately, and the Land of Fire and the Land of Earth have formed an alliance again. They even lent a lot of money to the Land of Earth for construction projects, so many people have gone Land of Earth instead. Things will be better in a while. Lord Raikage is already preparing to sign a contract with the Hokage."

Borrowing money? It must be that association again.

Dog Man are quite talented at making these weird and wonderful things.

Very well, in the world of Eye of the Moon, I'll be the Hokage, and you'll be my assistant Kage to make money.

You can forget about drinking tea until you've made enough money!

Everyone else can have their own world, but as for you, haha, I'll share one with you! I have all the permissions, let's see how I mess with you!

At the entrance, Cloud Ninja chatted with the caravan leader for a while longer, then waved his hand to let them pass after completing the formalities.

Caravans laden with goods began to pass through.

This is the final hurdle; once you pass this, you'll officially enter Kumogakure.

Chapter Twelve: You Have to Know Everything

The caravan gradually ascended the mountain path.

The original site where Kumogakure was established was called Cloud Lightning Gorge, which was originally the private territory of the Yotsuki Clan.

The First Raikage's idea of establishing a ninja village in the style of the Senju Clan and Uchiha Clan received strong support from the Yotsuki Clan, who contributed their ancestral home, the Cloud Lightning Gorge, to build the village.

Today, the entire Cloud Lightning Gorge has been incorporated into the territory of Kumogakure.

Because the village's buildings are constructed on mountain peaks, Kumogakure is divided into zones according to different peaks, even if the enemy captures the outer peaks, they can only continue fighting one mountain after another in the face of the steep valley terrain. It is simply impossible for them to flatten the Kumogakure in one fell swoop.

Unless you can wipe out the entire Cloud Lightning Gorge with one powerful attack.

The caravan had to travel slowly along the special passage specially built by Kumogakure to reach the area where trade was taking place.

Finally, the caravan boarded the platform built by Kumogakure and began unloading its cargo.

After the goods were tallied, the staff from Kumogakure paid the money readily, and the caravan members were all smiles.

They all come from the Land of Fire.

While Kumogakure and Hidden Leaf Village are at war, they welcome merchants from the Land of Fire. As long as the merchants are legitimate, they are very disciplined in their business dealings, paying on the spot after inspecting the goods. Kumogakure even offers a reasonable discount if the goods are damaged.

This caravan has a long-standing cooperative relationship with Kumogakure; otherwise, Uchiha Obito wouldn't have chosen this caravan.

Although the Cloud Ninja had personnel specifically tasked with detecting Genjutsu, they were unable to detect his Genjutsu.

They couldn't even tell that this "nephew" was a ninja.

Just kidding! Do you think anyone could tell?

Let me say it again, he, Uchiha Obito, is not only a master of Genjutsu, but also a first-rate actor!

He doesn't use Chakra, so no one can tell except for Dog Man!

The caravan, having completed their business, didn't leave immediately. Having traveled such a long distance and received payment, they were now financially secure and, of course, wanted to enjoy the exotic atmosphere.

Everyone unanimously decided to go watch the young lady dance.

After all, the girls from the Land of Lightning have exceptional figures.

Uchiha Obito beneath his mask.

However, he still needs the identity of this "uncle".

I'll endure it!

After summarizing the lessons learned from Kirigakure's failure, he concluded that the biggest reason for the failure was—a lack of immersion.

He was suspected because he wasn't Mist Ninja; he was someone who suddenly appeared.

The Kumogakure is very united, but also very xenophobic.

They currently only have a acting Raikage, not Raikage. Moreover, due to the loss of the Tailed Beasts and two generations of Raikage, there is a huge gap in high-end combat power, causing the Kumogakure to be in a state of panic.

This is a very good time of day.

He will join Senju Clan as a descendant of the Cloud Village.

Even decades later, in this Ninja World, the Uchiha Clan and Senju of the Forest are still considered the strongest.

And it's only been brought up again in the last few years.

The reason is simple.

In the series of battles since the Third Shinobi World War, the two newly risen masters, Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Shingen, especially the latter, proved the strength of the Uchiha Clan to the Ninja World with their extremely exaggerated achievements. So, could the Senju of the Forest, who were on par with or even surpassed the Uchiha Clan during the Warring States period, be weak?

However, to reasonably propose joining Cloud Village, Uchiha Obito needed an absolutely compelling reason, so he had to find one.

This time, he intends to obtain a high position and seize power in Kumogakure through proper procedures and in a legitimate manner.

Even the Raikage isn't entirely out of the question.

He had found out everything. There was no suitable person for the position of Raikage at present, only an acting Raikage. Faced with the pressure from Leaf Village, Kumogakure needed a truly strong person who could withstand the pressure from Leaf Village in order to end the acting period.

This can be considered as the time that the Dog Man bought for him.

Hmph! Kirigakure, you can have it!

I have something better!

"Tobi, come on, let's celebrate with everyone." Hypnotized by the Genjutsu, the caravan leader, who had Uchiha Obito his nephew, walked over cheerfully and slapped him hard on the shoulder. "You silly kid, your face injury isn't a big deal. Uncle will take you to have some fun first, and then we'll go to the hospital to get it checked out."

"No need," Uchiha Obito. "It's a waste of money. I'm perfectly fine as I am."

Uchiha Obito's mask now lies a face that even Uchiha Shingen wouldn't recognize.

While healing his injuries, Uchiha Obito used White Zetsu Cells to essentially give himself a makeover.

Moreover, Black Zetsu based the face on the appearance of a Senju Clan member from his memory, saying that this would better fit the setting, as such a descendant would be valued by Cloud Village.

It seems to be called something like "Senju Muzoku"? Black Zetsu said it was a nickname, not its real name. Even it didn't know its real name, so no one probably knows it now.

Although those terrifying marks are still there, it's enough.

So many people in this world have suffered facial injuries, so what's wrong with occasionally getting the same kind of injury? Nobody can find fault with it.

"You're such a stubborn kid..." The caravan leader sighed. However, having seen Uchiha Obito's appearance, he felt that his nephew couldn't really be called disfigured; he was still quite handsome. So what if he had a few scars? They were merchants, after all, and they had to fight bandits with bricks. Men are handsome with some scars.

Otherwise, how will I be able to run errands independently as a member of the family in the future?

"But don't worry, men aren't just about looks. Uncle will show you what women are like today!" The caravan leader was excited. "Men conquer women with their strength!"

Uchiha Obito.

The caravan leader, thinking his "nephew" was just being shy, and since the vehicles were temporarily stored and under the supervision of someone, he waved his hand and led his men, striding confidently towards the commercial street.

First, they found a restaurant and had a hearty meal. After everyone had eaten without drinking a drop of alcohol, they went out to find a pub.

"Hmm? This shop looks pretty good." The caravan leader, with his seasoned eye, judged the shop's quality from its decor.

He found a satisfactory goal.

Uchiha Obito glanced at it and felt that the store looked somewhat familiar.

"Let's go, let's go, have fun today!" The caravan leader waved his hand generously and strode towards the shop door.

The crowd cheered and quickly followed.

Uchiha Obito standing alone in the same spot.

He was still debating whether to go in, after all, he had tried it last time and found this place incredibly boring.

Wait a minute, last time...

Uchiha Obito looked at the familiar shop door and remembered.

Isn't this the store he visited last time?

"Tobi, what are you still doing here?" The caravan leader ran back because he discovered that his "nephew" was missing.

He grabbed Uchiha Obito and, as they walked, gave him earnest advice.

"In our line of work, you have to be good at everything. Men have this kind of hobby, it's not like you're doing anything bad. Relax, don't be shy! People will look down on you!"

Uchiha Obito: "..."

Chapter Thirteen: Shall I have a drink with you?

Suppressing the urge to Teuchi, Uchiha Obito was pulled into the shop.

However, as soon as they entered, the caravan leader let go of Uchiha Obito's hand and said to the people waiting inside, "My nephew's shop management skills are still lacking; he was almost fooled by the renovations."

The crowd responded with good-natured and understanding laughter.

Everyone's had this experience, so I totally understand.
