Land of Waterfalls, underground experimental base.
Senju Chen is sitting in front of an experimental table made of a special alloy. On the light screen in front of him, countless complex data streams are flowing across like waterfalls. He is analyzing the preliminary report on the body data of Might Guy that came from Orochimaru.
At this moment, an inconspicuous black communicator in the corner suddenly made a rapid beeping sound.
And a black scroll suddenly appeared on a formation pattern on the side.
That is the emergency communication channel between him and Kakuzu and Hatake Sakumo.
This frequency of alarm represents the highest level of emergency.
Senju Chen went over to open the scroll and check it out.
Sender: Kakuzu
Situation: S-level emergency. The stronghold is exposed and is surrounded and suppressed by the main forces of Hanzo of the Salamander and Amegakure.
Battle situation: Akatsuki suffered heavy losses, and Yahiko was seriously injured and on the verge of death. Hatake Sakumo arrived in time and defeated Hanzō.
Abnormal situation 1: The mysterious Masked Man appeared during the battle. His ability was virtual, which made physical attacks ineffective. He retreated after engaging me.
Abnormal situation 2: After Hanzo of the Salamander was defeated, he was attacked from behind by an unknown plant-shaped creature (half black and half white). His heart was penetrated and he died on the spot. His body was taken away by the creature.
The message is very short, completely in the Kakuzu style of "saying more than one word is a waste of saliva".
At the same time, the clone of Land of Waterfalls immediately synchronized this situation to the Senju Chen body of Konoha.
This news surprised Senju Chen who was far away from Konoha for a long time.
He slowly leaned back on the chair and tapped the table with his long fingers rhythmically, making a series of crisp "ta, ta" sounds.
The entire Public Security Department office was filled with the monotonous sound of knocking for a while.
"Hanzo of the Salamander... dead?"
Hanzō would die, which was expected by him. Whether he was killed by Nagato in the original work, or was killed by his own people in the future, the end of this "Demigod" was doomed.
But the manner of Hanzo of the Salamander's death reported by Kakuzu surprised him.
Killed by a sneak attack by a half-black, half-white plant-like creature?
Grass! (a plant)
Black Zetsu?!
In Senju Chen's mind, the ultimate old bastard who had been lurking behind the scenes of Shinobi World's history for thousands of years suddenly appeared.
Why did this guy end up in person? And he stabbed Hanzō in front of so many people?
Senju Chen's brows wrinkled slightly.
This is not in line with Black Zetsu's behavior. It has always been hiding in the deepest shadows, quietly tampering with history, and fiddling with the threads of fate. To appear in the center of the battlefield with such a high profile, and to personally kill a strong Kage Level, there must be a deeper reason behind this.
Stealing the head? No... Hanzō's head is meaningless to it. Taking away the body... Is there any secret about Hanzō? Or...
Senju Chen's mind was running rapidly, trying to connect all the clues together.
The mysterious Masked Man, the ability to blur... There is no doubt that this is Obito Uchiha.
Obito and Black Zetsu appear together in Amegakure, the target is self-evident - the pair of Rinnegan from Nagato!
In the original work, Shimura Danzō is actually the initiator and mastermind behind this tragedy. In order to maximize Konoha's interests in the war and eradicate the potential threat that Amegakure may rise, Danzo secretly colluded with Hanzo of the Salamander to plan this conspiracy.
At the same time, he ordered people to pretend to be members of the "Akatsuki" organization to attack Amegakure, creating an illusion, and successfully aroused Hanzō's suspicion and fear of "Akatsuki".
Obito is active behind the scenes as "Madara Uchiha", and his goal is to draw Nagato, who owns Rinnegan, into his camp.
For this reason, he used the death of Yahiko to catalyze Nagato's despair and hatred. At the same time, he also intercepted and killed the members of the "Akatsuki" organization who went to support Yahiko, completely cutting off the last glimmer of hope for Yahiko's survival.
What Obito did this time was somewhat similar to what Kakuzu described.
Only now, because of his intervention, the whole situation has changed.
Danzo had already been killed by him, Obito and the others could only achieve their goal by contacting Hanzo of the Salamander personally.
Unfortunately, Hatake Sakumo returned in time, and the enhanced version of "Wood Industry White Fang" directly defeated Hanzo of the Salamander, which can be regarded as directly cutting off Obito and Black Zetsu's script. Hanzō was defeated. Although Yahiko was seriously injured, he was not dead. Nagato naturally did not reach the critical point of a complete explosion.
The plan failed. The old silver coin Black Zetsu probably felt that the chess pieces Hanzō had no use value. In order not to expose them, they simply cleared them away.
And if you do this, you might be able to take advantage of the situation and try to gain Nagato their favor in the future.
Tsk, what a trick to cross the river and demolish the bridge, and remove the mill and kill the donkey.
Senju Chen's lips curved into a mocking arc.
Then his attention fell on the matter of "Yahiko was seriously injured and on the verge of death".
Senju Chen's eyes instantly turned cold.
"My 'angel investment' has never been a loss-making business."
Senju Chen murmured to himself, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.
"Buzz--"
The body of Senju Chen immediately contacted the clone of Land of Waterfalls and asked him to go to Land of Rain immediately. Regardless of whether Yahiko could survive in the end, he had to go there in person to comfort Nagato and Konan.
You must know that the current White Zetsu Puppet army of Senju Chen relies entirely on the continuous output and supply of Demonic Statue of the Outer Path. The experimental base consumes a lot of White Zetsu. If Nagato suddenly gets a mental twitch and suddenly becomes a psychic, then everything will be exposed.
You must know that Demonic Statue of the Outer Path is the most critical item in Obito and Black Zetsu's plan. The subsequent collection of Tailed Beast and the reproduction of Ten-Tails all depend on it.
What if Obito and Black Zetsu saw that Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, whom they had always thought was the one in their pocket, was suddenly covered with the unformed White Zetsu...
Senju Chen I guess no matter how stupid they are, they still know that something is wrong with Demonic Statue of the Outer Path!
Therefore, he had to go "in person" to confirm the status of Nagato and Konan, and stabilize them completely.
However, Obito and Black Zetsu... since they failed at Land of Rain, they will definitely not give up in a short time, and will definitely continue to look for opportunities in secret.
This means...
It seems that they can't return to Kirigakure for the time being!
Senju Chen's thoughts instantly jumped from Land of Rain to Land of Water thousands of miles away.
His identity named "Kirisame Ryo" is now the minister of High Tower, holding great power. But above his head, there is always a Sword of Damocles named "Fourth Mizukage Yagura", which is actually "Obito Uchiha".
Many of his truly core plans, such as the large-scale "persuasion" of those future genius ninjas, had to be "cautious" because of Obito's existence.
But now...
The tiger has left the mountain!
"Haha..."
Senju Chen let out a deep chuckle, his eyes flashing with the excitement of capitalists when they see market regulators taking a collective vacation.
"Obito, Obito, since you dare to go out to "run business", I will be rude to you at home..."
