Konoha immediately received news of Three Great Shinobi Villages's movements. Aoba immediately became alert. He knew before that the plot had completely collapsed. He no longer had the advantage of foresight.
However, he quickly judged that this phenomenon must be caused by Black Zetsu.
Black Zetsu in the original plot carried out Lao Liu to the end. He always guided and used tricks, and rarely showed his combat power head-on or directly conspired.
But this time, after being forced to appear in advance by Aoba, this guy quickly showed operations that were different from the original plot.
Since he couldn't hide in the dark to cause trouble, this guy directly used the influence of Mizukage controlled by Obito to start contacting Kumogakure and Iwagakure.
Aoba Needless to say, it goes without saying that they must discuss a plan to jointly fight against Konoha.
Aoba thought that other ninja villages might unite, but he didn't take it to heart. Because he knew that due to various historical issues, even if the major ninja villages had this idea, it would definitely not be possible to truly unite in a day or two.
In the original plot, Five Great Ninja Villages was able to unite quickly because of the appearance of the White Zetsu Army. The world war was about to break out.
And now Konoha, although strong, has not taken any military action. According to Aoba's understanding of Raikage and Tsuchikage, they have deep grievances, and it is impossible to unite in a short time.
But if Black Zetsu mediates in the name of Mizukage, all this may not be certain.
Now Konoha almost dominates most of the surrounding shipping business. One extremely important factor in this is Kirigakure's isolation from the country.
After all, the ninjas of Kirigakure are the best at water warfare. They should have taken the majority of the shipping business.
It's just that Kirigakure was tormented by Obito, two or three big cats. They had no intention of competing for maritime supremacy. That's why Konoha was given the advantage.
The purpose of Obito is to torture Kirigakure. But Black Zetsu is not. What it wants is to provoke a war between Shinobi World and create opportunities for Kaguya's resurrection.
Therefore, it does not care whether Kirigakure is weakened or not.
Another result of Kirigakure's isolation from the country in recent years is that the major ninja villages do not have a deep understanding of Kirigakure.
But no matter what, Kirigakure is still one of the top five. Mizukage Cangya, as Perfect Jinchūriki, is definitely a top player.
As soon as he came forward, both Raikage and Tsuchikage gave him some face. It was indeed possible for Three Great Shinobi Villages to reach an agreement.
This result is what Aoba doesn't want to see. Even though Konoha and Sand Ninja are now two against three, he is sure to win.
But the price is too high.
Once a full-scale war breaks out, what will be weakened is the strength of the entire Shinobi World. Now Aoba has drawn the strength of other ninja villages to its own. If it can reduce the damage, it will naturally reduce the damage.
Once the three villages unite, both their strength and mentality will undergo huge changes. This may cause them to have some thoughts that they shouldn't have.
The purpose of Black Zetsu's move is to provoke a war between Shinobi World. And this is exactly what Aoba is trying to avoid.
Konoha's top management also immediately held an emergency meeting. This time, not only the decision-makers, but all Jonins in the village who were not on assignment attended the meeting.
"So, we are now facing Fourth Shinobi World War. and will face a joint attack from three ninja villages?"
"It's still uncertain, but this is the last possible outcome. Konoha's foreign policy has begun to make other ninja villages wary. Fourth Shinobi World War is already close at hand."
Shikaku saw it very accurately, from the perspective of the three ninja villages of Thunder, Earth, and Water. Before Konoha completely rises, complete stranglehold is the best way.
Therefore, their best approach is to take action first and join forces to completely destroy Konoha. At least they must control Konoha's expansion plan. Only in this way can they have a chance to breathe.
"Three Great Shinobi Villages has been holding grudges for a long time. Can they really unite in a short time?"
Hyuga Hiashi has some doubts about this. After all, everything is a bit too sudden.
Aoba took over the topic after listening.
"What I am going to say next involves some secrets of Konoha. However, due to the previous mission of Sunagakure, a lot of information has been leaked. And now Konoha is facing a war situation. I followed the order of Hokage to decrypt the following secret information.
According to the intelligence of ANBU, Mizukage Cangya has been controlled by someone using some method. In other words, the current decision of Kirigakure does not represent the real Kirigakure."
"What does it mean to be controlled by someone? Cangya but Perfect Jinchūriki, who can control him?"
The biggest difference between Perfect Jinchūriki and ordinary ninjas is that they are almost never controlled by Genjutsu. Because the Tailed Beast in the body can unlock Genjutsu at any time.
But unfortunately Obito is Uchiha. Uchiha's Mangekyō comes with Genjutsu, and it can only defeat Tailed Beast. Cangya. This wave is considered to be restrained by attributes.
"It literally means that he was controlled by someone using Genjutsu. And the person who controlled him was a Uchiha."
This time, Hyuga Hiashi immediately understood.
"Is it that person, the mysterious Uchiha who appeared when Night of the Nine-Tails?"
"Yes, it's him. The mysterious man inside Akatsuki wearing the Uzumaki mask is also him."
"I see." Hyuga Hiashi is now Hokage Advisor. Naturally, he knows the details of the previous support mission of Sunagakure. He also knows that Aoba and Masked Man fought against each other.
"That's why you fought with him at that time?"
"Yes, I used Sharingan's ability first to control him. But the guy named Jue next to him took control of his brain at the last moment and took him away by force.
Based on its previous performance, I infer that it should now fully inherit the capabilities of Masked Man."
Thus, the whole situation becomes obvious.
"So, our enemy is actually the mysterious guy named Zetsu? Now he controls Mizukage Cangya, and is trying to promote the three villages to unite against Konoha?"
"That's right."
"Then the question is, who is this guy named Jue? Who is Uchiha controlled by him? Why do they have to target Konoha?"
Not only Hyuga Hiashi, Shikaku Nara is also looking at Aoba. With Shikaku's wisdom, it is not difficult to see that Aoba has reservations.
Aoba glanced slightly at Kakashi who was silent, but finally did not speak. In the last battle, although Kakashi did not fight Obito directly. But at that distance, Obito used Kamui, and Kakashi was very likely to notice something.
Now the identity of Obito actually has little significance. The threat comes from Black Zetsu. This is a much more dangerous character than Obito.
"Currently, we are still investigating the information about the other party. But the top priority is that we need to prevent the three villages from joining together. For this, I have a plan."
