In a gorge with a cascading waterfall outside Kirigakure in the Land of Water.
Uchiha Sora arrived with Mei Terumi, Ao, Genji, and the other senior officials of Kirigakure.
After some discussion, Kirigakure's leadership had finally agreed to Uchiha Sora's request and brought him to this gorge, where the Six-Tails Jinchuriki lived.
At that moment, an aloof young man of seventeen or eighteen sat in a large tree on the cliff beside the waterfall.
The young man wore a haori and held a bubble-blowing pipe, leisurely blowing bubbles.
"Utakata! Come down! Grand Elder Genji is here to see you!" Ao called to the aloof young man.
Hearing Ao's call, Utakata glanced at the people below, a trace of puzzlement crossing his cold face.
He blew a large bubble that enclosed his body. The bubble rose and carried him down from the cliff, landing before the group.
"Grand Elder, did you need something?" Utakata asked coolly as the bubble vanished. With his aloof disposition, he seemed to dislike being disturbed.
"Utakata, we need to consult you and the Tailed Beast inside you about a matter of great importance to the village," Grand Elder Genji said solemnly. "So please, you must agree to help us."
"What is it?" Utakata frowned, his tone keeping everyone at arm's length.
Displeasure appeared on Grand Elder Genji's face. Just then, Uchiha Sora smiled and spoke. "Let me explain."
Utakata looked at the clan crest on Uchiha Sora's clothes, a flicker of confusion in his eyes. "You're from the Uchiha Clan?"
Uchiha Sora smiled faintly and activated his Sharingan, three tomoe slowly rotating within his eyes. "Utakata, Six-Tails Jinchuriki, I have some visions that I think the Six-Tails inside you would find very interesting."
With that, the ocular power in his Three-Tomoe Sharingan surged into action.
Tsukuyomi!
