Hiruzen Sarutobi was, after all, the former Third Hokage, who had made great contributions to Konoha and whose persona was quite solid.

He initially thought it was just another tactic by Hiruzen Sarutobi to put pressure on Minato Namikaze, but little did he expect that what he considered impossible would actually come true today…

"Lu Jiu, what do we do next?"

“What else can we do?” Nara Shikaku’s expression grew cold. “The Fourth Hokage entrusted me with the important task of protecting the village, so I will shoulder this responsibility.”

"The village will be exactly as it was when the Fourth Hokage handed it over, and it will be exactly the same when he returns!"

“Inoichi.” Nara Shikaku looked at his old teammate standing beside him.

"Just tell me what your plans are." Yamanaka Inoichi's expression was serious, but he quickly made a choice between Sarutobi Hiruzen and Namikaze Minato.

"In accordance with wartime regulations, use the Mind Transfer Technique to connect all the ninjas of the Konoha garrison!"

As Nara Shikaku watched the large group of ninjas led by Sarutobi Hiruzen approach the Hokage Building, he hardened his heart and gave the order to Yamanaka Inoichi.

Chapter 304 Killing Two Birds with One Stone.

“It’s really lively.”

"Focus on your work and don't get distracted."

"What a great opportunity to watch a play! It would be a shame to miss it."

"Don't forget the purpose of our trip!"

"I haven't forgotten, how could I have forgotten!"

The combined form of White Zetsu and Black Zetsu is currently communicating with each other, one side being the free spirit of White Zetsu, and the other being the gloom of Black Zetsu.

It's quite an unexpected harmony when two completely opposite creatures, yet with similar life forms, merge together.

At this moment, Zetsu was lurking not far from the Hokage Building, while Black Zetsu was using his sensory abilities to pinpoint the location of Madara Uchiha's Rinnegan.

"Hey, if you can't find it, I think we shouldn't miss the chance to watch the show."

After waiting for a long time without hearing Black Zetsu speak, White Zetsu couldn't suppress his gossipy nature any longer.

White Zetsu considered prying into other people's privacy and keeping track of major events in the ninja world as the greatest pleasure in his life.

At this time, a rebellion broke out in Konoha, and it was led by the former Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi. This novel and exciting event was something that White Zetsu naturally did not want to miss.

"Shut up!"

Black Zetsu, who was sensing the location of the Rinnegan, warned White Zetsu fiercely, "If I can't find where the Rinnegan is, I'll have Obito kill you when we get back to Akatsuki!"

"Why are you being so fierce..."

Bai Jue weakly replied, then remained silent with a gloomy face.

"found it!"

After a long pause, a glint of light flashed in Black Zetsu's eyes, "He actually hid Hatake Akira in a place like this..."

"Where did you hide it?" Bai Jue also perked up again.

"In the secret room where the Uchiha stone tablet is placed!"

"To keep the Rinnegan in the Uchiha clan's secret chamber?" White Zetsu felt this was somewhat illogical. "Given Hatake Akira's steady and cautious personality, he shouldn't have hidden the Rinnegan in the Uchiha clan."

White Zetsu's idea is probably what most people think.

As we all know, the ultimate evolution of the Sharingan is the Rinnegan. If the Uchiha clan knew that there was an opportunity to achieve instant success, they probably wouldn't refuse it.

At first, Black Zetsu thought that given Akira Hatake's steady and cautious personality, he probably wouldn't have placed it in the Uchiha clan's secret room, but the result was unexpected.

"Heh, Akira Hatake played a trick on those in the dark." Black Zetsu grinned. "I just don't know if Akira Hatake trusted the Uchiha clan too much, or if he just didn't think of it for the moment."

"Who cares? Now that we know where the Rinnegan is hidden, let's hurry over there," White Zetsu urged. "Once we get the Rinnegan back, who knows, we might be able to come back and watch the show."

"This might be a trap!"

Black Zetsu was far more cautious than Akira Hatake; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to hide in the ninja world for over a thousand years without being caught by the Sage of Six Paths.

"Hatake clearly had better hiding places, such as using his spatial abilities to hide him in a spatial crevices."

"Or perhaps he kept it close to his body, or perhaps he entrusted it to his younger brother, Kakashi Hatake, for safekeeping."

"Even if the Rinnegan is entrusted to Minato Namikaze for safekeeping, it is better than keeping it in the Uchiha clan's secret chamber."

Black Zetsu's analysis makes a lot of sense, and that's also why he's been reluctant to act on his own.

If what lies ahead is a trap, then his attempt to steal the Rinnegan will become fraught with danger.

Black Zetsu was immediately caught in a dilemma.

Should I go or not?

"hold on."

Black Zetsu finally held back, saying, "I'm worried it might be a trap."

"Shall we go see a play?!"

Bai Jue became excited again, even more so than before.

"Wait here!"

Black Zetsu roared at White Zetsu with a gloomy expression.

……

The scene shifts, and Minato Namikaze has now moved with Akira Hatake and Kushina Uzumaki to a location near Konoha Village.

"This is... the place where you and Jiraiya trained back then?"

"You know that too..."

Minato Namikaze retorted, then turned his attention to Kushina Uzumaki, "Akira, I'll trouble you to keep watch outside."

"Just leave it to me."

Akira Hatake responded and then wheeled himself out of the delivery room.

Soon, Minato Namikaze once again stabilized the seal within Kushina Uzumaki's body, while anxiously awaiting Naruto's birth.

"I wonder how Kakashi is doing."

Akira Hatake looked in the direction where Kakashi and Obito Uchiha were fighting, muttering to himself.

After a moment, Akira Hatake's expression suddenly changed.

"The first skill disconnected?!"

"What on earth happened to Kakashi?!"

Akira Hatake suddenly stood up from his wheelchair, his dark eyes instantly transforming into the Sharingan, and the space in front of him was rapidly folded and shortened by him.

Looking around, Akira Hatake saw Kakashi fighting Obito Uchiha through the shortened space.

"It's alright...it's alright."

Seeing that Kakashi was alright, Akira Hatake finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his rising aura returned to calm.

"It was just a false alarm, a false alarm."

Sitting back in his wheelchair, Akira Hatake returned to his sickly appearance. "To be able to push Kakashi to this point, you should consider this your limit."

At this point, Akira Hatake suddenly chuckled, "Losing two three-tomoe Sharingan at once should be enough to make you feel bad for a while..."

Furthermore, Akira Hatake knew where these three Sharingan eyes came from, which immediately improved his mood.

Kakashi's resurrection armor effect was not in vain; Obito Uchiha suffered even greater losses.

But then, Akira Hatake also realized something.

"Now that their battle is coming to an end, Obito Uchiha should be coming to find me next."

"Fine... to avoid you going in circles, I'll help you out."

His eyes transformed back into the Sharingan, and with a casual grab, he caught the White Zetsu spore clone in Orochimaru's laboratory.

"It's finally your turn to go on stage."

As he spoke, Akira Hatake raised his hand and released the seal on the White Zetsu spore clone, which had been in a state of confusion, and the White Zetsu spore clone suddenly woke up.

"Ah... Hello!"

Upon first seeing Akira Hatake, the White Zetsu spore clone greeted him in a very strange tone.

Without wasting any words, Akira Hatake snapped the neck of the White Zetsu spore clone in the next instant.

"That works, killing two birds with one stone is that simple."

With a casual toss, he threw the White Zetsu spore clones back into Orochimaru's laboratory, and restored the shortened spatial barrier in front of him to its original state.

Akira Hatake's plan was simple: he wanted to use the characteristics of the White Zetsu spore clones to transmit his current location information to the White Zetsu.

If White Zetsu knows, then Black Zetsu will know, and there's no reason why Obito Uchiha wouldn't know.

Thus, Akira Hatake only needs to wait here quietly for Obito Uchiha to come to him...

Chapter 305: The Fated Showdown Between Master and Disciple. (Bonus Chapter for 200 Monthly Tickets.)

White Zetsu is truly a very special creation, as mentioned earlier.

In general, White Zetsu has three major techniques.

First, of course, is the White Zetsu's hidden technique, "Mayfly Technique".

Second, it is a White Zetsu cell that is comparable to Hashirama Senju's cells.

Thirdly, there is the clone of White Zetsu.

Although the word "spore clone" is used to describe a spore clone, strictly speaking, the spore clones of White Zetsu cannot be considered clones.

The spore clones and the White Zetsu's original body are actually the same kind of organism; the only difference is that the two are subordinate to each other.

This is like an ant nest, where White Zetsu is the queen ant, and his spore clones are both clones and subordinates.

Moreover, when a spore clone dies, its memories before death are simultaneously transmitted to White Zetsu, thus giving White Zetsu another channel to obtain information.

Akira Hatake naturally used this characteristic to reveal his location.
