Chapter 64: And so… The Mizukage guard the Water himself



What Akihara Kagura had said… actually makes sense.

The Mizukage of the Mist Village wouldn't bother with such trivial matters.

Most of the time, the Hokage of the Konoha Village stays in the Hokage's office handling official duties. The Mizukage must also be extremely busy daily. How could they possibly have the time to float on the sea everyday checking ships?

However, Hatake Kakashi believes that even for a Jonin of the Mist Village, in a sea environment unfavorable for their combat, it would not necessarily be an easy problem to solve.

Once they fail to kill the opponent, and the opponent escapes, it becomes troublesome.

Akihara Kagura's Wood Release techniques also suffer a certain degree of weakening at sea. Even if he could use the Wood Dragon technique, such a major disturbance would definitely attract the attention of the Mist Village.

“The world of ninjas is inherently dangerous.”

Akihara Kagura rarely says something serious, but his next sentence reveals his true nature, “If all else fails, we can just return the way we came. After all, when we left, Lord Danzo went to see the Third Hokage. It's likely that soon the entire ninja world will hear about the rogue ninja warrant for Uchiha Obito. He can't continue to hide; we'll find him sooner or later.”

“Shimura Danzo, that guy is really…”

Hatake Kakashi is somewhat helpless, realizing the urgency of time.

“I'll go find a boat.”

Uchiha Itachi, using his Sharingan to hypnotize, controls a sea captain and takes them towards the Land of Water.

Normally, the Mizukage of the Mist Village wouldn't be so idle, unless this Mizukage is not the real person in power.

Unfortunately,

The current Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, is just a puppet controlled by others.

Land of Water.

In the office of the Mizukage in the Mist Village.

Uchiha Obito puts on his mask again, sitting in the position of the Fourth Mizukage, holding a stack of Mist ninja files, slowly selecting the pawns he wants from them.

The Fourth Mizukage Yagura stands beside Uchiha Obito, quiet as a wooden mannequin, seemingly oblivious to Uchiha Obito's actions.

Originally, during the war, the Mist Village implanted the Three-Tails into Nohara Rin, which directly led to Rin choosing to be killed by Kakashi. Plus, being isolated from the ninja mainland and possessing two of the Tailed Beasts, the Three-Tails and the Six-Tails, Uchiha Obito simply took control of the Fourth Mizukage of the Mist Village. 

Using the Mizukage's influence, he then controlled the entire village.

For many years, the Mist Village adhered to the belief that only those who emerge from slaughter are strong, even including the graduation exams of the Ninja Academy, which involved killing each other.

It was only stopped completely when a student named Momochi Zabuza killed all the graduates of that year.

However…

The Mist Village still remains unchanged in its 'Blood Mist' status, where superiors oppressed by higher-ups enforce cruel high-pressure management policies on their subordinates.

The Land of Water is also full of contradictions.

Within the Land of Water, the self-proclaimed powerful and war-loving Kaguya clan never obey the orders of the Mist Village. They arbitrarily slaughter ordinary civilians, causing both the entire Land of Water and the ninjas of the Mist Village to detest the bloodline ninjas.

Uchiha Obito is too indifferent to care about this.

After controlling the Fourth Mizukage, Karatachi Yagura, Uchiha Obito never considered governing the Mist Village. He merely uses the village as a temporary place to keep the Three-Tails and Six-Tails beasts and occasionally searches for powerful ninjas within the village to use as pawns for his future Eye of the Moon Plan.

To Uchiha Obito, the Mist Village is the source of Rin's death. It's already fortunate that he hasn't destroyed the village; how could he possibly allow it to thrive?

The most important thing is...

Uchiha Obito is not good at these things...

"Hmph, another bunch of useless ones."

Uchiha Obito, after reviewing a pile of ninja files, carelessly tossed them to the ground: "I've been away for so many days, and only Hoshigaki Kisame's strength is still somewhat acceptable."

This is the only person Uchiha Obito is satisfied with.

Because Kisame is decisive in action, never discounts the orders from above, and possesses the powerful bloodline of the Hoshigaki clan, making him extremely formidable in combat.

"..."

Yagura glanced at the files thrown to the ground by Uchiha Obito and remained silently standing in place without any action.

"..."

Uchiha Obito's fingers tapped lightly on the table, again feeling anxious and disturbed about revealing his identity in the Konoha Village. Kakashi, knowing he is still alive, will definitely search everywhere for his whereabouts.

The higher-ups of the Konoha...

Will surely issue a warrant for his arrest.

The only good news is that a kid named Akihara Kagura agreed to join him, but the kid's arrogant and overbearing attitude is like that of a madman. He hasn't even chosen to directly become a trustworthy rogue ninja, just verbally expressing his willingness to be his inside man in the Konoha.

What a joke!

Does he need an inside man in the Konoha Village?

Even if he reveals his identity, entering the Konoha Village would be a walk in the park for him. If he wants any information, he can just have Zetsu secretly investigate!

"Something's happened."

The figure of a pitcher plant monster slowly emerged from the ground.

"What is it?”

Uchiha Obito looked at it in surprise.

The entire Mist Village was under his control. The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, was the most powerful person in the Mist Village. Could there be any problems here?

"A clone of White Zetsu brought a message..."

The white half-face of the pitcher plant monster mechanically conveyed the unsettling news: "The Konoha Village has issued a wanted order for you in the ninja world. When it went to the Konoha Village to secretly gather information, it discovered that the Konoha Village had again sent people to the Land of Water to track you down!"

"I thought it was something serious..."

Uchiha Obito remained calm, sitting in his original spot, and snorted coldly: "I had anticipated this. Let it keep an eye on the Akatsuki's situation to prevent them from having second thoughts..."

After Uchiha Obito finished speaking, he turned to look at the motionless Fourth Mizukage Yagura next to him and commanded, "Yagura, order the Mist Anbu to strengthen their guard. If you encounter Konoha Village spies who come to gather intelligence, just kill them."

"Ordinary ninjas might not be able to do it..."

The white half-face of the pitcher plant monster couldn't help but laugh, speaking slowly: "The one who is coming is Hatake Kakashi..."

"Kakashi, that waste..."

Uchiha Obito's tone was full of disdain.

The white half-face of the pitcher plant monster laughed even more joyously, continuing to add: "There's also Akihara Kagura and Uchiha Itachi... Akihara Kagura's Wood Release is not easy to deal with! You almost fell into his hands yourself!"

"When was this information received?"

Uchiha Obito's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at the pitcher plant monster with dissatisfaction: "When you speak, don't just tell half of it!"

"Three days ago..."

The black half-face of the pitcher plant monster spoke hoarsely: "They must have set out at least three days ago, they might be close to the Land of Water by now..."

"It's not a big problem."

Uchiha Obito thought of Akihara Kagura being his spy, and his mind gradually calmed down. The team coming to track him down immediately seemed less difficult to handle.

The problem is...

Akihara Kagura didn't know that the Mist Village was his, the boss's, territory.

If he had known that the Konoha Village would send people to infiltrate the Mist Village in the Land of Water to track him down, he should have discussed it with Akihara Kagura, his spy, to prevent such an unforeseen situation from happening...

However...

That kid might not necessarily be able to stop the Konoha Village from sending people to infiltrate here.

He'll have a good talk with that kid later. The Konoha Village has issued his wanted order, and sooner or later, there will be a chance to use that kid...

"Yagura."

After pondering for a while, Uchiha Obito gave his orders to the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura: "You lead a team personally to seal off the coast and hunt for Konoha Village spies. No outsiders are allowed into the Land of Water!”
