Just as Konan was looking for loopholes in Sunagakure Village and making preparations to rescue the Red Sand Scorpion, in the Kingdom of Grass and the Kingdom of Earth near the northwest, Uchiha Itachi and Fangtu stood on the slope, looking at Groups of Iwa ninjas retreated with large amounts of supplies.
Correspondingly, batches of armed troops wearing the official costumes of the Furusugi family pattern took over the vacancy left by the Iwa ninja.
As for the Grass Ninja Village in the Land of Grass, no one cares about their opinions at all.
"The affairs of the Country of Grass really have nothing to do with the Grass Ninjas!"
Fangtu scoffed and told cold jokes that were not funny at all, and Uchiha Itachi didn't bother to respond.
Indeed, since the establishment of the one-village-one-country order, the Grass Ninja Village has been a group of rabble. Their ability is to swing left and right according to the wind. Others are not worth mentioning.
What determines the ownership of the Country of Grass is the game between Iwagakure Village and Konoha Village. The Country of Grass, located in the buffer zone, will have to bleed their blood in order to survive.
If it weren't for the alliance with Konoha Village, even the superficial peace here wouldn't be able to be maintained.
Every few years, Onoki, the Third Tsuchikage of Iwagakure Village, would hire a group of wandering ninjas who were greedy for money, or even a rebel ninja group, to fight a proxy war and beat up the grass ninjas.
This tactic of exhausting the enemy was quite effective, but it couldn't help the Konoha Village, the main backer behind the Grass Country, and the Grass Ninjas were tortured terribly.
"Kakuzu and Hidan have been here, watching a large group of people who don't know what they are called and another group of people who have no other choice, killing each other cruelly. There is no winner."
The Iwa ninja stood on the sidelines and watched, while the Leaf Village verbally supported them. Kakuzu and Hidan returned to the organization with a large sum of money, leaving only corpses on the ground.
The weak cannot control their own destiny. They can only act according to the strong's eyes, then choose the least bad path that they can accept, and stick to it.
"It's really unexpected that such words come from your mouth. How can a rebellious nin who killed his whole family still have such compassion for heaven and humans?"
"Senseless killing, worthless."
Uchiha Itachi didn't care at all about Fangtu's slightly sarcastic teasing, and said to himself
"You are a spy of Konoha Village, or you are using a trick to sneak in. It doesn't matter if you are a daimyo or a chess piece of the Furusugi family. No one in the Akatsuki organization cares who you were before or what reason you had to sneak in. As long as Just follow the leader's orders and work. You and I met just because of a coincidence of fate. We happened to be passers-by for a while on the road of life, so..."
He tilted his head slightly, looked at Fangtu indifferently with his scarlet three-magatama Sharingan, and then said coldly:
"Everyone is doing their own thing, and then try not to hinder others. Anyone who wants to be troublesome will die."
Hearing this, Jiangtu was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said:
"This murderous intention is real! It is indeed you, so exciting. Don't worry, my goal has never changed, which is to destroy Konoha Village. For this, I will not hesitate to cooperate with the enemy. "
"Isn't it a simple tool, but a chess piece with selfish motives?"
Uchiha Itachi responded with understanding,
"The daimyo and the third generation of Hokage will not be your loyal targets. Your backstage is either Shimura Danzo or Furugi Bushui..."
"Oh! Are you familiar with them?"
"Not familiar! However, to understand someone, you don't have to know them. Observing them from a distance will make it clearer."
Jiangtu spread his hands and said nonchalantly:
"The truth is up to you to imagine. I have something I have to do, and the power of the 'Xiao' organization is indispensable. So, even if it's a task that the sponsor doesn't like, I won't do it..."
After eating the daimyo's meal, holding the bowl that protects Shinobu, and rebelling if he wants to, one can imagine Fangtu's loyalty.
Therefore, Gu Shan Bu Shui never thought of using kindness and friendship to win over Jiang Tu, but cooperated with each other to get what they needed.
Just as the two of them watched the Iwa Ninja heading north and were about to follow them into the Kingdom of Earth, suddenly, a very uncomfortable chakra reaction came from the south.
"Your son is catching up again."
"I'm going to kill some time. You wait here for me for a while."
Without waiting for Uchiha Itachi's response, Fangtu shook the tin staff in his hand, jumped up, and accelerated towards the direction where Sora was chasing him.
"A lunatic who is ungrateful and unfaithful, who doesn't care about old feelings at all, and uses his biological son as a tool, will die sooner or later."
Looking at Fangtu's retreating figure, Uchiha Itachi couldn't help muttering to himself, and looked to the southeast, which was the direction of Konoha Village. His younger brother, Uchiha Sasuke, had almost graduated from the fourth grade. It’s time to prepare for the exam.
"I hope I can catch up." 』
Ever since he knew that his father had other plans and that there were deeper secrets hidden on the night when the Uchiha clan was exterminated, Uchiha Itachi understood that the trouble was not over yet, and the unknown hidden dangers would be exposed sooner or later.
Sora, Fukito's son, possesses a three-magatama Sharingan. After coming into contact with him, Uchiha Itachi once tortured him using the secret technique of the Mangekyo Sharingan - Tsukuyomi. As a result, the information obtained made him think that The genius, who had already grasped the development of the situation, was also shocked.
Sora's Sharingan did not come from any known Uchiha tribesman, and it was not even clear whether it was of Uchiha bloodline that was living outside.
The Sharingan, the blood inheritance limit exclusive to the Uchiha family, reappeared in this way, which really made Uchiha Itachi feel a bit ridiculous.
For the Blood Succession Limit and Sharingan, countless conflicts broke out, even at the cost of destroying the whole family, in order to keep the fire.
As a result, reality gave him a big slap in the face.
Uchiha Itachi got a lot of information from Kong, but he only had more doubts in his heart.
Uchiha Itachi, who has already embarked on the road of no return, can no longer worry about the leakage of the Blood Succession Limit Sharingan. There are still other Uchiha tribesmen in the outside world, or they are being maliciously used by others.
As long as Uchiha Sasuke is safe in Konoha Village and grows up successfully enough to be able to protect himself, there is no need to worry.
The trouble now is whether the Uchiha remnants who are more likely to still be active in the ninja world and the owners of many blood inheritance limit Sharingan will bring greater trouble to Uchiha Sasuke who has not yet grown up. .
In addition, Uchiha Itachi also felt deep malice and the danger of possible outbreak from Fangtu.
A madman who is overly persistent and whose actions are uncontrollable may not necessarily pose a great threat to masters, but the secret techniques he masters are all evil forbidden techniques that violate taboos and can cause large-scale destruction.
Once the enemy invades Konoha Village, it will be terrible.
Of course, any S-class rebellious ninja in the "Akatsuki" organization is a moving natural disaster, not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Ten minutes later, Kong looked like a bereaved dog, with mixed emotions in his eyes, ranging from gratitude and joy to anger and confusion. He looked at Jiangtu angrily and roared:
"Why? It was obviously you who brought me out of the Temple of Fire, yet you abandoned me. What did I do wrong to make you dislike me so much?"
Jiangtu replied to Kong with a smile but not a smile:
"I thought you would have grown up a lot after going through so much, but I didn't expect you to still be so childish. Didn't your experiences these days give you any insights?"
"What do you mean?"
"Still struggling with the identity of you and me as father and son? Except for the dispensable blood connection, you can't bring any help to my goal. Originally, I thought you could be of some value and let that little fox give more Help, result, nothing more than that..."
Possessing the nine-tailed chakra, he also has a three-magatama Sharingan, which has the ability to turn into a half-tailed beast. As a proxy and tool man, it is indeed very useful.
Fangtu once thought that his son would be the most important card in Gusubu Shui's hand. Unexpectedly, first Shiro, a genius with blood inheritance limit and ice escape, was recruited, and then the even more terrifying Kaguya Kimima. Lu appeared, and there were countless other second-rate geniuses and capable subordinates.
The value of Sora's combat power has been greatly weakened.
This time, Sora, who was ambushing the Red Sand Scorpion and Deidara and lurking in the "Zha He Zhong", was thrown out directly.
In doing so, Major Governor Gushan naturally considered it. In Jiang Tu's eyes, it would undoubtedly reduce the value of Kong's use.
The Gushan family, which has a large family and great business, still has many unexplored trump cards. Sora's strength is really not enough.
"You are actually such a person? I am really blind."
"Oh? You don't have any unrealistic ideas because I went to the Temple of Fire to take you away from the sea of suffering, right?"
Jiangtu sneered a few times and mocked disdainfully,
"Now that I have decided to let you go, don't send me to your door without mercy. Don't misunderstand me. This is not because I care about family ties, but because I think you are still of some use. Live well and try your best to show me your measure. .After all, he is my son, so he is not useless at all!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Sora suddenly laughed angrily when he heard the words. Red tailed beast chakra overflowed from his body. Under its stimulation, its shape continued to change. The half-tailed beast transformation was activated, and his chakra arms suddenly stretched out. , took a picture of Xiang Jiangtu.
"Having the courage to kill your biological father is finally a bit respectable, but... it's not enough."
With a cold snort, he shook the tin staff in his hand and swung it violently to meet the attack. It collided with the tailed beast's chakra giant hand and made a tearing sound. The extremely powerful red arm was shattered by one blow.
"How can it be?"
He barely used any special power and just relied on brute force to fight against a powerful enemy in a half-tailed beast state. Is this a normal person?
"There are so many mysteries in this world that you don't know. With your little ability, it's not enough..."
As he spoke, Fengtu once again grabbed another chakra tentacle that was sweeping over with his bare hands, and pulled hard. Sora, who was unable to avoid it, flew over easily and passively, and bumped into the top-down tin staff head-on.
The protective effect of the nine-tailed chakra neon clothes was very limited. It was directly penetrated, and then he received a heavy blow on the back and was hit to the ground.
Sora screamed and vomited out a few mouthfuls of blood. He watched helplessly as Jiangtu waved the thunder blade with his other hand, piercing his shoulder blade like a nail. He was nailed to the ground. The raging thunderbolt paralysis effect was very strong. Sora's ability to resist was instantly paralyzed.
"So weak, I'm so disappointed. This kind of strength is your confidence? What have you learned in the past two years?"
In fact, of course it's not that Kong is too weak, but that Jiangtu has become significantly stronger.
After activating part of the power given by the "wedge", black lines loomed under the skin. Not only was the physical fitness strengthened many times, but even the power of the ninjutsu was terrifyingly powerful.
Logically speaking, Kong with the same strength should be able to do better. Under the remote control of Gu Shan Bu Shui, he can fight with a group of masters for several rounds and then escape unscathed.
Although the body was injured and unable to move, in the half-tailed beast state, the outstanding self-healing ability of Nine-tails Chakra began to work, constantly squeezing Kong's body, and recovering from injuries at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"I see, you are simply using your powers without fully turning them into your own. Do you think it makes you ugly, ugly, and no longer like a normal person, so do you feel repulsed by it? You are naive and pedantic. It’s so ridiculously childish! Without it, you wouldn’t even have the qualifications for me to take a serious look at you…”
No matter how many people want the powerful power brought by Nine-Tails Chakra, Sharingan and "Wedge", they can't get it. A child like Sora who doesn't know what he is thinking actually feels that they are a burden and wants to get rid of their control.
"Keep your own value, idiot. If this is still the case in the future, you won't even be qualified to know the truth, not to mention controlling your own destiny."
He raised his foot and kicked the incapacitated Kong into the air. He landed in a small river in the distance and floated to the south along the water.
"Next time we meet again, I hope you can give me a little surprise. You are so boring now. You are not even qualified as a useful tool."
After saying that, the satisfied Fangtu returned to Uchiha Itachi who had been waiting for a long time.
"it's over?"
"Well, you're such an innocent kid!"
Sora, who is almost eleven years old, has so-so strength, but a very bad character. In comparison, Uchiha Itachi graduated from the ninja school with the first place at the age of seven, took the chunin exam alone at the age of ten and successfully advanced on his own, joined the ANBU at the age of eleven, and killed his entire family at the age of thirteen to become a rebel ninja. The current Uchiha Itachi is only in his early fifteen years.
In comparison, Sora is really just a child who has not grown up.
"Let's go and see how Iwa Ninja is doing."
The mission of the two is to go to the Kingdom of Earth to explore the details of Iwagakure Village. It would be better if Deidara can be "rescued". If not, it is best to collect some reliable intelligence to provide support for follow-up actions.
Compared with Suna Ninja, who had many problems and internal disunity, Iwa Ninja's situation was slightly better. The Tsuchikage Sandaime Ōnoki, who was always strong and strong, had good abilities. Except for squeezing the Jinchūriki too much and not cultivating a suitable successor, he Nothing is lacking.
More than ten days later, Uchiha Itachi and Fangtu arrived near Iwagakure Village. They stood on a high hill and looked down at the stone town located between the mountains with worry.
