……

After Uchiha Kakuyama hugged Mei Terumi, Mei Terumi was stunned for a moment before her face immediately turned red. She never expected that she would be hugged by Kakuyama before they had even gone through the stage of holding hands. This caught her off guard.

However, Mei Terumi did not dislike being held like this. In fact, when she smelled the man's scent, she felt a kind of intoxicating sense of security.

Uchiha Kakuzan held Terumi Mei in his arms, as if he were holding a kitten.

Mei Terumi is actually quite tall, but when she met the towering Uchiha Kazuyama, she seemed like a little bird nestled in his arms, her slender figure completely embraced by him.

After embracing for a while, Uchiha Kakuyama finally let go of her arms, looked down at the pretty face so close to his, thought for a moment, but still didn't kiss her. Things were moving a little too fast.

Mei Terumi sensed the movement of Qiushan-kun and looked up with some confusion, only to meet his half-smiling eyes. In an instant, a blush rose on Mei Terumi's face.

Looking at the shy Mei Terumi, Uchiha Kakuyama raised his hand and gently pinched her chin. Looking into her emerald green eyes, he teasingly asked, "Mei, do you really like me? What do you like about me?"

Upon hearing Uchiha Kakuzan's words, Mei Terumi's blush, which had been slowly fading, immediately returned, turning her face bright red. She shyly turned her head away and whispered...

"Powerful, handsome, and possesses a captivating charm that draws people in like moths to a flame."

In Mei Terumi's view, although she longs for a man, this man must possess the strength to command her respect.

Mei Terumi also has her own pride. Why should a man who is weaker than me be my man?

This is why Mei Terumi hasn't found a suitable person yet. After all, there aren't many people in Kirigakure who are stronger than her, and besides, they are all much older than her, so they are not suitable. Otherwise, she wouldn't have had to wait for Uchiha Kakuyama to come and reap the rewards.

Upon hearing Mei Terumi's words, Uchiha Kakuzan raised an eyebrow but said nothing more. Instead, he took Mei Terumi's hand and continued their tour of Kirigakure.

As for the two tagalongs following him, he was of course not worried. With their strength, there was no one in the entire Hidden Mist Village who could make them disappear without a trace.

Under Mei Terumi's guidance, Uchiha Kakuzan fully experienced the unique cuisine of Kirigakure. At the same time, Mei Terumi generously introduced Uchiha Kakuzan as her man to the villagers. Although they encountered some envious and jealous glances, no one caused any trouble.

Uchiha Kakuyama looked at Mei Terumi, who exuded a dangerous aura, and understood somewhat.

Those people must have all been beaten up by Mei Terumi, otherwise they wouldn't be so obedient.

Chapter 289 The Uchiha Clan's Territory

Chapter 289 The Uchiha Clan's Territory

In a completely dark cave, Obito Uchiha sat forlornly at the feet of the Gedo Mazo, lost in thought, his eyes filled with confusion and despair.

Beside him stood the gloomy-faced Black Zetsu and the incessantly chattering White Zetsu; they were temporarily separated in this cave.

At this moment, White Zetsu was spinning around incessantly, exclaiming, "This shouldn't be, this shouldn't be! How could Uchiha Kakuzan have seen through our White Zetsu's disguise? This shouldn't be, this shouldn't be!"

Black Zetsu looked at White Zetsu pacing around him and Obito Uchiha, who was in a state of ecstasy, and once again doubted whether he could really revive Madara Uchiha and break the seal on his mother Kaguya Otsutsuki with these things.

Black Zetsu waited a while, and seeing that White Zetsu was still endlessly circling around, he grew impatient and shouted to stop him.

"Stop circling around there. The Fourth Mizukage's transformation into the Three-Tails Jinchuriki by the White Zetsu is inherently flawed. And that Uchiha Kakuzan is no pushover either; he might just see through it."

Upon hearing Black Zetsu's words, White Zetsu suddenly realized and jumped up: "That's right, the Fourth Mizukage was a Jinchūriki, and he possessed two types of chakra. I only absorbed and imitated the Fourth Mizukage's chakra, but I overlooked the Three-Tails' chakra. Hmm, hmm, I'll pay attention next time."

Black Zetsu, hearing White Zetsu's words, also felt somewhat weary and couldn't help but roar in anger, "Fool! The Fourth Mizukage is already out of our control. How can you expect to do it again?"

White Zetsu was slightly taken aback by Black Zetsu's reprimand, and couldn't help but hang his head dejectedly: "Yes, we have lost control of that Fourth Mizukage. If Madara knew, he would definitely call me an idiot." Then he squatted down in a corner and stopped making a sound.

Seeing that White Zetsu had temporarily stopped causing trouble, Black Zetsu looked at the dejected Uchiha Obito with a headache, not knowing how to persuade him.

Just like the conflict between Uchiha Kazuyama and Obito, whenever Obito's actions encountered Uchiha Kazuyama, things would go wrong.

Since Obito Uchiha awakened Kamui, coupled with the Wood Release cells in his body, and after being trained by Madara Uchiha for a period of time, Obito Uchiha's strength is quite formidable even among Kage-level fighters. Moreover, his Kamui ability is extremely unpredictable, and even powerful Kage-level fighters could easily suffer a great loss if they are not careful.

Whether it was using Kamui and Wood Release to brutally defeat the Hidden Mist Village ninjas who had harmed Rin, or facing his teacher on the night of the Nine-Tails, he performed admirably.

However, ever since Uchiha Kagami suddenly appeared, Obito seemed to be restrained by him, and he always suffered a great loss from him.

Black Zetsu waited a while longer until Obito's condition improved before walking over and saying, "Obito, it's alright. This is just a small setback in our grand plan. As you know, the more the Mangekyou Sharingan is used, the faster he will go blind. Don't worry, that Uchiha Kakuzan won't be smug for long."

Upon hearing Black Zetsu's words, Obito Uchiha looked at him with a deep gaze and said without any emotional fluctuation, "When he was overpowering the Three-Tails in its complete form, he used Wood Release. You should know what effect Wood Release cells have on the Mangekyou Sharingan."

The reason why Obito Uchiha was able to use his eye technique Kamui at will was because he had Wood Release cells, which could greatly extend the use time of his Mangekyou Sharingan. Therefore, how could he not know the effect of Wood Release cells on the Mangekyou Sharingan?

Black Zetsu was taken aback by Obito Uchiha's words and paused for a moment. How could he not know such a thing? He just wanted to comfort this damned Obito.

However, after speaking with Black Zetsu, Obito Uchiha emerged from his depression. He still had to carry out his plan and reunite with Rin in the Infinite Tsukuyomi, so how could he be easily defeated?

Obito Uchiha raised his head and looked at the giant Gedo Mazo, saying, "Damn Uchiha Okayama, I knew the Uchiha clan was full of annoying guys, especially this Uchiha Okayama, he's more hateful than all the other Uchiha."

After saying that, Obito Uchiha, still unwilling to give up, pounded hard on the stone wall next to him.

After venting his anger, Obito suddenly thought of something. He said in a sinister tone, "Uchiha Kakuzan, aren't you the head of the Uchiha clan now? If I wipe out your entire Uchiha clan, won't you regret it? Will you regret angering someone you shouldn't have?"

After Obito Uchiha finished speaking, he loudly asked the White Zetsu crouching in the corner:

"White Zetsu, have you found out where the Uchiha clan has moved to?"

Upon hearing Obito's words, the White Zetsu snapped out of his meditative state and turned to Obito with a slightly aggrieved expression, saying, "Obito, I searched diligently, but my White Zetsu clones have traversed the entire ninja world and found no trace of the Uchiha clan, not even a single one of them."

Furthermore, I personally went to the Uchiha clan's former territory before they moved to Konoha, and found nothing but dust. (When White Zetsu went, Fugaku Uchiha hadn't gone yet.)

Both Obito Uchiha and Black Zetsu knew about White Zetsu's abilities. He had 100,000 White Zetsu clones and the Mayfly Technique, which allowed him to merge his body with the earth and vegetation and move at high speed. In this world, there was really no place that White Zetsu couldn't detect.

Black Zetsu, upon hearing White Zetsu's words, also began to analyze the situation.

"White Zetsu's reconnaissance is all-pervasive. Wherever there are plants, White Zetsu can get there. The Uchiha clan has several thousand members, which is no small number. Unless the Uchiha clan all hide in places where no plants can grow,..."

However, this is impossible, because such places are too harsh, and there are many children in the Uchiha clan who cannot adapt to such environments.

"It's all that damned Uchiha Kakuyama's fault! If it weren't for his space-time dojutsu, how could so many Uchiha have been transferred without leaving a single clue?"

At this moment, Obito Uchiha suddenly interjected through gritted teeth, "An island, another island! That cunning guy, Uchiha Kakuzan, must have found an island and moved all the Uchiha clan members there. Because of the isolation of the sea, the White Zetsu's abilities are suppressed, and they can't use the Mayfly Technique, so he couldn't detect them."

Obito Uchiha paused, then said with a grim expression, "I just don't know..."

Chapter 290 The Secret of the Rinnegan

Obito Uchiha said with a gloomy expression, "That damned Uchiha Okazan must have hidden the Uchiha clan on some island, which is why the White Zetsu didn't find them."

As Obito Uchiha finished speaking, his expression grew even more somber, and his voice became increasingly hoarse and gloomy:

"I just don't know if Uchiha Kakuzan's move was unintentional or if he had already sensed something. Otherwise, why would he have happened to place his clansmen on an island that could suppress White Zetsu's reconnaissance?"

Black Zetsu fell silent after hearing Obito Uchiha's words, and only spoke after a while:

"It seems that Uchiha Kakuzan has had a huge impact on our plans. Otherwise, we could send the Six Paths of Pain to Konoha. Even if we can't destroy Konoha, we can at least retrieve the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."

Upon hearing Black Zetsu's words, Obito Uchiha shook his head with a grim expression, denying it:

"Nagato doesn't really trust me, and he has Konan by his side. If I suggest he go to Konoha, he won't agree."

Especially now that Tsunade is in charge of Konoha, even if we retrieve the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, she won't let it go easily, which will greatly affect our future plans.

Black Zetsu, upon hearing Obito Uchiha's words, knew he was right and sighed, "It seems we can only start with those Jinchuriki who aren't getting much attention. Notify Nagato and start the plan. Have the Akatsuki members begin collecting the Tailed Beasts; their locations have been mostly identified anyway."

Just as Obito Uchiha was about to nod in agreement, White Zetsu, who had been drawing circles on the side, suddenly raised his hand and said:

"Um, um, little Obito, I just got news that the Fourth Mizukage just committed suicide, and the Three-Tails' aura has also dissipated. It must have died along with him. Little Obito, should we still carry out the plan?"

White Zetsu didn't dare look at Black Zetsu and told him directly that if he told Black Zetsu this news, he would likely be severely scolded.

As soon as White Zetsu finished speaking, the entire underground space fell silent, and even Obito Uchiha and Black Zetsu froze in their tracks.

Seeing that neither of them spoke, Bai Jue found it strange and curiously moved his gaze back and forth between the two of them.

After waiting for a while, Black Zetsu said through gritted teeth, "That damned Fourth Mizukage is so stupid. He was out of our control and he still committed suicide. Idiot, what an idiot."

Both of them could see that Black Zetsu was really anxious; otherwise, he wouldn't have reacted this way.

After Black Zetsu calmed down, Obito Uchiha spoke up, "Actually, this is quite normal. I believe he must have felt desperate after waking up from our control."

There was not a trace of sympathy in Obito Uchiha's voice; instead, it was full of coldness. To him, everyone in Kirigakure was an enemy, a murderer of Rin, let alone the leader of Kirigakure.

Black Zetsu glanced at Obito and said, "Inform Nagato that the plan is postponed due to the death of the Three-Tails. We will conserve our strength and officially launch the tailed beast collection plan after the Three-Tails is resurrected."

Black Zetsu paused for a moment, then continued, "That's good. We can take advantage of this gap to concentrate our efforts on dealing with that Uchiha Kakuyama. Otherwise, he would really be a major threat to us."

Obito Uchiha nodded in agreement. Ever since he encountered Uchiha Kakuzan, things had been going badly for him. Now that the plan had been postponed, it was only natural to deal with him first.

Suddenly, Obito Uchiha seemed to remember something and said worriedly:

"This Uchiha Kakuzan has Wood Release cells transplanted from somewhere, and he can actually use the Wood Release: Wood Human Technique. He has far more Wood Release cells than I do. Could he evolve the Rinnegan like Madara?"

Black Zetsu shook his head and scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? That Uchiha Kakuzan has no relatives. Even if he has the Mangekyou Sharingan, he can't evolve it into the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, so how could he possibly evolve it directly into the Rinnegan?"

Then, Black Knight silently added in his mind, "Even if Uchiha Kakuzan was lucky enough to possess the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, he wouldn't know the secret of the Rinnegan, let alone find Indra and Ashura's chakra."

Black Zetsu didn't say any of these things. In his view, it was enough that there was only one Rinnegan in the world. Therefore, he didn't let anyone know the secret of the Rinnegan except for the already deceased Uchiha Madara.

After hearing Black Zetsu's words, Obito Uchiha visibly breathed a sigh of relief. Although he knew it was unlikely, Uchiha Kakuzan's outstanding performance made him worry.

Black Zetsu looked at Obito Uchiha and comforted him, "Alright, Kirigakure is lost, so be it. Anyway, you've already wrecked it all, so it's useless now."

Now, the most important thing is to find the Uchiha clan's territory and, ideally, eliminate that Uchiha Hill.

We can't rush this. We need to patiently wait for Uchiha Kakuyama to show a weakness, and then seize the opportunity to eliminate him.

. . . . . .

Meanwhile, Uchiha Okayama was deeply in love with Mei Terumi, and their relationship was rapidly developing.

When the two were alone, every part of Mei Terumi's body was conquered by Uchiha Kakuzan amidst her feigned resistance. Her pink lips, capable of spitting out acidic mist and liquid, were tasted by Uchiha Kakuzan countless times.

However, perhaps because they weren't ready yet, or perhaps because Mei Terumi was still a little shy, the two of them stopped at the last step.

Because the two were so inseparable, the two tagalongs who used to follow Uchiha Kakuyama wisely stopped following and disappeared somewhere.

That very evening, Uchiha Kakuzan and Terumi Meite, both wearing masks characteristic of Kirigakure (Hidden Mist Village), were strolling hand-in-hand through the night market, having a wonderful time.

Suddenly, a little boy wearing glasses ran over, carrying a short ninja sword on his back.

The little boy ran very fast, and when he came up to them, he said while panting, "Lady Terumi Mei, Elder Yuanshi has something to discuss with you. It's very urgent, please come immediately."

Mei Terumi abruptly removed her mask, revealing a more attractive face. Suddenly, she reached out and grabbed the little boy's head, vigorously rubbing it while asking:

"Chojuro, what brings Master Genji to me in such a hurry?"

Mei Terumi ruffled Chojuro's hair as she asked:

"What's the matter, Master Yuan? How urgent is it?"

Chojuro blushed at Mei Terumi's actions and said with his head down:
