In Konoha, your attributes double every day!

He knows this without needing to be reminded.

In the field.

Kakashi was stunned.

Namikaze covered his forehead.

They never imagined that Han Guang would send the news of Uchiha Madara's survival to Kenshiro.

Who is Kenshiro?

This is a dealer who specializes in selling intelligence.

Once this news reaches Kenshiro, it probably won't be long before all the ninja villages know about it.

At that time, Kannabi Bridge will probably be teeming with ninjas.

"This is really..." said B.

Chapter Sixty-Six: Madara Uchiha is furious! He keeps flashing a hidden, cold light!

Sometimes, you don't need insults to drive someone crazy; all you need is exposure.

Underground cave.

"Lord Ban, something terrible has happened."

Black Zetsu, carrying White Zetsu, appeared in the cave, his tone anxious.

"Ok?"

Madara slowly opened his eyes and saw the intelligence scroll in White Zetsu's hand.

"Whose intelligence?"

"About you," White Zetsu replied.

"Mine?" Ban asked, slightly surprised.

"This intelligence was on sale, so I bought a copy," Bai Jue added.

Discount? Special offer?

Ban paused for a moment, then grabbed the scroll.

Upon opening the scroll, his expression shifted from calm to surprise, and then to anger.

Finally, it evolved into a strong killing intent.

The elderly Madara Uchiha is hiding near the Kannabi Bridge, possibly in an underground cave.

This person is the mastermind behind Kirigakure!

These two short lines of text caused Madara Uchiha's blood pressure to spike, and the killing intent in his eyes almost materialized.

He could understand why people guessed his hiding place. After all, he had fought against the Namikaze team yesterday.

But how could anyone else possibly know that he was secretly controlling Kirigakure?

"Investigate the source of this information," Ban said in a deep voice.

"There's no way to check," Black Zetsu replied.

"Ok?"

"This morning, intelligence gathering points throughout the entire Land of Grass were all selling information together..."

"It's even 5% off," Bai Jue interjected.

puff!

Madara withdrew his arm, ending White Zetsu's life.

That damn White Zetsu, every time he speaks it's so annoying.

Then, he thought of Namikaze's squad.

"Where is Namikaze's squad?"

"We have already left the Land of Grass."

"left?"

Ban muttered to himself, pondering the possibility that it was Namikaze.

Madara was absolutely certain that Namikaze could never know about controlling Kirigakure.

"So, who exactly exposed your secret?"

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

On the way back to the village.

Han Guang had always felt that Obito was strange, because today Obito was unusually silent.

This is not like him at all.

"Cold light".

Namikaze came over and gestured.

The two were hanging at the back of the line.

"What is it, teacher?"

"Is the information you provided to Kenshiro true?"

"Yes."

"So you're saying it's true that Madara Uchiha controlled Kirigakure?"

"That's what the big tree told me," Han Guang said, shifting the blame back to the big tree.

At this point, the two stopped.

Namikaze stared intently at the student, feeling his intelligence had been insulted.

"Han Guang, how could trees possibly know such a thing?"

"Teacher, you can't communicate with trees, so how can you be so sure the trees don't know?"

Han Guang asked a question in return.

"And the tree told me more than just these things."

"Oh? Can you tell me?" Namikaze asked, half believing and half doubting.

"Big Tree said that there was a little kid back then who was holding a little girl with red hair. He also said that the little kid looked a lot like you."

"..."

Namikaze was stunned.

How could the big tree know about this?

Moreover, the place where he hugged Kushina back then was on the border. But that big tree was in the Land of Grass.

"Perhaps there are circles among the trees too," Han Guang said casually, shrugging.

These words immediately jolted Namikaze into action.

Yes.

Humans have their own circles, and trees naturally have their own circles as well.

Compared to humans, the circle of trees is probably purer.

To determine the truth of this matter, he only needs to return to the village and ask Kushina.

“If Kushina didn’t say this, then what Han Guang said must be true.”

Thoughts turn.

Namikaze asked if there were any other secrets.

“There’s a lot, but the information the big tree gave me was very disorganized.”

“It’s alright, just say it,” Namikaze said, gesturing.

"Daiki said there was a black, shadow-like thing that kept following Uchiha Madara. It was very strange."

"Black? Like a shadow?"

Namikaze thought for a moment

"Could it be a shadow technique similar to that of the Nara clan?"

"No, that black shadow can move freely and can even talk," Han Guang reminded him.

"I see... Then this might involve a higher level of Yin Release transformations," Namikaze muttered to himself.

He then added, "It even involves a high-level integration of spiritual will."

It has to be said, Namikaze is a genius.

Han Guang sincerely admires this.
