Naruto: I Borrow from the Future

Qingye's gaze swept back and forth between the two points on the map; he was really starting to lose his composure.

That mysterious Konoha ninja from before was definitely a White Zetsu in disguise!

The three members of their team had planned an ambush, which might fool the Iwagakure ninja at the mountaintop stronghold, but it certainly wouldn't fool the White Zetsu!

So, for reasons unknown, Madara Uchiha had White Zetsu disguise himself as a Konoha ninja to lure the Iwagakure ninja over, forcing the three of them to expose themselves!

even!

The early arrival of Explosion Release Hunter might also be the work of White Zetsu!

The White Zetsu disguised as a Konoha ninja died from self-destruction, while another White Zetsu was nearby, and that White Zetsu left after the battle ended!

But where to go after leaving?

In Aoya's memory, the elderly Uchiha Madara lived in a place called "Mountain Graveyard".

Although he didn't know the exact location of that mountain graveyard, it shouldn't be in the Land of Grass, but in another country in the ninja world!

and so!

The other direction the White Zetsu left in is probably the direction where Madara Uchiha is right now!

Madara Uchiha has already arrived at the Iwagakure battlefield!

Combined with the cave located on that line, Qingye could now almost pinpoint Uchiha Madara's location!

"……call!"

Letting out a long sigh, Qingye took out a red marker and circled the location of the cave on the map: "Remember, this is forbidden territory. Absolutely do not approach!"

"...What is a forbidden area?" Hinata Himon was completely confused.

"There's something really scary inside! Just listen to me."

Kurenai Yuhi and Hinata Himon could only nod.

"Don't worry too much, maybe I'm overthinking it," Qingye offered a barely perceptible reassurance.

Judging from the current situation, it's impossible for Konoha to push back into the Land of Grass; they can no longer pass through that area.

But why did Madara Uchiha target him?

Could it be that I've become a candidate for Project Eye of the Moon?

hiss!

It's not impossible!

Based on his previous talent, he was roughly on par with people like Uchiha Tetsuka and Uchiha Inaho... He probably wouldn't have caught Uchiha Madara's eye.

But the improvement in my skills during this period has been too rapid!

Maybe Madara Uchiha will retrieve his resume from the trash and look at it again!

Qingye couldn't help but shake his head.

Having a strong storyline is a good thing, but it also leads to preconceived notions.

Subconsciously, he felt that Madara Uchiha would only be targeting Obito Uchiha, without considering that he himself might also be targeted.

When exactly did Old Deng start watching me? I didn't even know the White Zetsu had infiltrated my side, this is too terrifying!

"Kannabi Bridge..."

He shook his head, putting the matter of Madara Uchiha aside for the time being.

If I'm not mistaken, Madara Uchiha's current location is probably the same place where Obito Uchiha was later struck by the giant rock and hit with the Demon Orb.

That place is at least several dozen miles away from the Kannabi Bridge!

How could it be so far?

Wait a minute, that doesn't seem wrong either!

Aoya recalled the original plot: not long after Minato Namikaze and Kakashi's team separated, Rin Nohara was captured by a Jonin from Iwagakure.

After that, the two went to rescue Nohara Rin one after the other, and did not blow up the bridge at all!

After a fierce battle, Obito and Kakashi were killed and injured respectively, having taken down two Jonin on the opposing side. However, countless Iwagakure ninja suddenly appeared afterward.

Kakashi fought fiercely until he fell unconscious, and Minato Namikaze arrived to save him.

There was absolutely no bridge being blown up!

Or, at the very least, it should be said that the Kannabi Bridge was not destroyed in the operation in which Obito Uchiha participated.

"That makes sense." Qingye nodded slowly.

But since the first attempt to blow up the bridge failed halfway, why did Konoha ultimately win the war?

How important was the task of blowing up the bridge?

We can't just send Kakashi and his two jonin squads into enemy territory to taunt and kill monsters in order to relieve the pressure on the front lines, can we?

Was blowing up the bridge just a side effect?

It would be best if we could finish it, but it's okay if we can't.

"Forget it, never mind."

Anyway, it wasn't their team that was going to blow up the bridge!

Aoya touched his ninja tool bag, inside which was a scroll containing the corpse of the Explosion Release ninja, Kari.

Although there were many twists and turns, he was fortunate to have achieved his initial goal, and the fifty million taels would soon be in his hands.

Next, Aoya and Yuhi Kurenai exchanged some words and handed over the task of handing over the mission to them. Aoya then prepared to go to the underground gold exchange to help Kari complete the body donation.

……

The Land of Grass.

Inside a makeshift underground base.

Madara Uchiha closed his eyes, his vision connected to the White Zetsu scattered throughout the ninja world through a special means.

Uchiha Shisui, who fought on the battlefield of Kumogakure, had already awakened his Sharingan at the age of ten. He possessed considerable strength and was considered the most outstanding genius of the new generation of the Uchiha clan.

Uchiha Tetsuka, from the Sand Village battlefield, is twelve years old, possesses a one-tomoe Sharingan, and has mediocre strength and talent.

Uchiha Inahisa, from the Hidden Mist battlefield, is sixteen years old. She has a three-tomoe Sharingan, her strength is passable, and her talent is average.

Fugaku Uchiha, who was on the battlefield in Sunagakure, was 31 years old. His talent was passable, but he was too old, and he was suspected of having awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Obito Uchiha, just returned to Konoha at the age of twelve, hadn't awakened his Sharingan yet, but...

Just then, White Zetsu A came running back shouting, "Lord Madara, I'm back! That Explosion Release ninja, Kari, is useless! He couldn't even hold off Uchiha Aoya!"

Madara Uchiha opened his eyes, frowned slightly, and received the information retrieved from White Zetsu A.

"...Explosive tags?"

After watching the entire battle, Madara Uchiha shook his head: "Forget it, it was just a spur-of-the-moment attempt anyway."

"By the way, Madara-sama, why did you send Kari ahead of time to hold off Uchiha Aoya?" White Zetsu A scratched his head.

If other Iwagakure ninjas had arrived, Uchiha Aoya might have died there.

Madara Uchiha, who had been a lonely old man for decades, didn't mind saying a few more words to the brainless White Zetsu, and snorted:

"You don't understand the Uchiha clan. The Mangekyou Sharingan of the Uchiha clan can only be awakened through extreme emotional stimulation."

"But when it comes to specific individuals, each Uchiha needs different emotional stimuli."

"As for Uchiha Aoya, based on my observations of him over the past two years, he seems to need the stimulation of life-or-death situations and intense emotions to upgrade his Sharingan."

"So, creating a sufficiently dangerous situation for him might just stimulate him to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan."

Unfortunately, despite using a large number of explosive tags, that Explosion Release ninja, Hunter, was indeed disappointing.

"Oh, I see." White Zetsu A nodded, completely unaware. "Then, Lord Madara, what about Uchiha Aoya?"

"It's just a minor move, don't worry about it." Madara Uchiha didn't care at all.

No one understands the Sharingan better than him!

Although Obito Uchiha hadn't awakened his Sharingan yet, he was certain that Obito's talent in this area was even greater than that of Shisui Uchiha!

As for Uchiha Aoya, he was at most slightly stronger than Uchiha Tekka and the others, and still not as strong as Uchiha Shisui.

Our focus should remain on Obito.
