Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

Looking closer, I discovered it was Loquat Juzo.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Juzo Biwa shook his head and spoke through his bandages, "Do you really think my power is weak?"

After thinking for a moment, he nodded straightforwardly: "Although I hate to say it, your strength is indeed insufficient to come to Konoha with me. As the strongest of the five great ninja villages, Konoha's strength is perhaps beyond your comprehension."

"As a rogue ninja from Kirigakure, you should know the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, the Jinchuriki of the Three-Tails, right?"

Lian Juzang nodded, and Sora continued, "If I told you that the power of the Three-Tails Jinchuriki could be easily controlled by the current Uchiha Yun, would you believe me?"

The word "control" instantly reminded Juzo of Tobi.

After pledging allegiance, Uzumaki Sora had previously told him about the information regarding Kirigakure.

And that Tobi used Sharingan genjutsu to control the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, who was a Jinchuriki.

"Is it that strong?"

After sighing, Juzo Biwa picked up the guillotine that had been propping up on the ground: "So, are you confident you can beat him?"

Uzumaki Sora also stood up, smiled, and replied, "Testing his strength and the price for killing Uchiha Yun are two completely different things. The missions issued by the Iwagakure organization are all for that old, immortal Onoki; he won't ask for more money."

Juzo Biwa nodded. He had heard of the reputation of the Tsuchikage of Iwagakure when he was on a mission in Kirigakure. Indeed... cunning and treacherous.

The two then left the dense forest and headed towards the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Rain...

……

Three days later, outside Konoha Village.

Returning here once again, Sora was filled with emotion.

At this moment, both he and Konan had taken off their Akatsuki uniforms and were wearing ordinary clothes.

"Should we go straight into Konoha? If a fight breaks out in here, we might not even have a chance to escape, right?"

Hearing this, Kong looked at Xiao Nan beside him and said, "Sometimes... missions don't necessarily require a head-on confrontation. For example, a friendly exchange match can accomplish the mission."

As he spoke, Sora looked behind him and said, "My intelligence is enough to allow us to infiltrate Konoha, but I wonder if those guys from Iwagakure were able to enter the barrier silently."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Nan also looked in a certain direction behind her.

In their perception, that location had been following them for a day. Although it was well hidden, it was discovered by Sora and Fei, who was hanging behind them, when it first appeared.

Sora smiled and said, "The Third Tsuchikage of Iwagakure, Onoki, has always been a cautious person. He would rather pay us to carry out missions than risk the lives of his village's ninjas."

"The mission he issued this time... it seems that his fear of the Uchiha clan has clearly deepened with age. After all, Madara Uchiha left a certain shadow on him when he was a child."

Konan looked at Sora. Although she already knew that he looked exactly like Yahiko, she couldn't help but think of the previous Akatsuki during this conversation.

Turning her head, Konan asked in a low voice, "At your age, you weren't even born when Madara Uchiha traumatized Onoki, were you?"

Sora looked at Konan: "During the two years that Jiraiya taught the three of you ninjutsu, I was also not in the Land of Rain. For me, information is something to be traded."

"Speaking of which, what else do you want to know since you agreed to team up with me this time?"

As he spoke, Uzumaki Sora began to form hand seals, and soon bypassed the barrier and entered the village using the methods of Konoha's Anbu.

Xiao Nan was stunned for a moment. Although she had paid special attention, she couldn't remember the hand seals and movements of this guy just now.

Sharingan?

Emerging from the alley, Kong smiled and said, "Don't worry too much. Some things, especially this unguarded hidden passage in Konoha, still have some value."

"By the way, that intern? Tobi, with his abilities, getting in here should be very easy for him. After all, it's his hometown... Uchiha..."

???

Konan suddenly looked up at Sora. Unlike the guys from Iwagakure, Tobi was far behind them because he knew Sora's perception and intelligence abilities.

Because of Xiao Nan's presence, he wouldn't lose track of her, but could he even detect her at this distance?

Sora smiled and said, "Since Yahiko's death, you and Nagato are the only two left from the previous Akatsuki, right? Given this kind of relationship, I'm afraid Nagato would never trust you with a mission like testing Uchiha Kumo."

"Tobi's Mangekyou Sharingan possesses the power of space-time ninjutsu. This power can indeed take you away at any time... right?"

Xiao Nan replied in a deep voice, "Sometimes I really want to crack open your brain and see all the information inside. Someone like you is truly a walking secret."

At this moment, Xuanwu Kong, who had already walked out of the alley, looked at the dumpling shop outside the street and then called Xiaonan to follow.

Xiao Nan, who was standing to the side, thought she had met her target. Her heart tightened and she fell behind for a while before catching up.

However, the next moment...

"Here, aren't you going to eat?"

After hesitating for a while, Konan took the three-colored dumplings from Uzumaki's hand and looked around: "So your goal just now was only these two strings of dumplings?"

Sora took a bite of a tricolor dumpling, frowned, and replied, "Actually, I don't really like sweets. I thought you did. The food in Konoha is actually quite good."

Xiao Nan, who was standing to the side, was stunned for a moment, but still ate one of the three-colored dumplings in her hand.

Then, perhaps because he hadn't eaten breakfast yet, he quickly devoured two more meatballs.

He raised his hand and ordered two cups of tea.

The two ate breakfast with tea.

The shop was bustling with people coming and going, suggesting that quite a few people eat meatballs for breakfast.

"Om..."

Just after they finished breakfast, a vibration emanated from their rings.

"Heh... Is Nagato getting anxious? Considering how worried he is about you, it's understandable."

Xiao Nan ignored Kong's words and immediately left the dumpling shop, casually walking towards an alley.

Sora followed behind, and then their chakra transformed into a wave of longing, appearing on the fingers of the Gedo Mazo.

"Uzumaki Sora, did you do this on purpose?!"

As usual, he was immediately met with a barrage of criticism upon entering, but Sora simply shrugged and replied, "What can I do if Uchiha Yun is staying in Konoha and refusing to come out? I heard that this guy has been teaching students recently. If he's teaching for a year or two, won't I be eating dirt outside Konoha for more than a year?"

Pain ignored this excuse and said directly, "The Iwagakure people are currently trying to get in. Your operations must stop for now. Until the Iwagakure forces infiltrate Konoha, the mission to probe Uchiha Kumo is suspended!"

He chuckled indifferently, "I'm not taking the mission reward, so you can decide for me. It's fine if it drags on for a few days; it'll give me time to show Konan around Konoha properly."

"As the only woman in the organization, I'm getting moldy from staying in this rainy country every day. I think if Nagato's legs were healed, you could go out for a walk. It would be good for your physical and mental health, instead of always acting like a god or a demon."

As soon as he finished speaking, Pain remained silent for a long time, his right thumb resting on the Gedo Mazo.

Konan, who was familiar with the situation, sighed. She guessed that Nagato on the tower was probably angry again.

As for Nagato's condition, it's not surprising that when Uzumaki Sora first infiltrated Amegakure and broke into the tower, he had already seen Nagato's condition at that time.

"Do not take any action for the next two days. Wait for Iwagakure's observers to infiltrate. That's all!"

Payne hastily left a message and dispelled the illusionary body technique.

Sora glanced at Konan beside him and asked, "Did I anger you again? Pain's true form, Nagato, seems to be quite petty."

Xiao Nan, who was standing to the side, opened her eyes and stared at Kong, her gaze gradually becoming serious: "What exactly is your purpose in joining the Knowledge Base?"

Kong, who was about to leave, stopped and turned around, saying, "Purpose? Although our ultimate goal is the same as yours—to help this distorted world get back on track—the process may be a little different."

A distorted world?

The sudden comment caught Xiao Nan off guard.

Sora, who was looking at him, then said, "No matter how powerful an individual is, after unifying the entire world, all that remains is fear, and they will eventually be overthrown. But if an organization becomes powerful enough to fill the dark side of the world, then the original darkness will gradually be forced back."

Sora smiled and said, "Let's go, I'll take you somewhere. Perhaps you and Nagato have gradually gained power, but you don't know much about the past of this world."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kong led the way out of the alley. Xiao Nan frowned behind him, but then followed.

……

On the Hokage Rock, Konan, who was behind Ku, asked in a low voice, "Is this the place you're talking about? This is just a landmark building in Konoha; there's no past here."

Uzumaki Sora smiled and said, "There are the rock forms of the four Hokage of Konoha here, but the only one whose power truly surpasses the peak of humanity is Hashirama Senju, the First Hokage."

"Do you know why, from the Warring States period to now, in my opinion, only Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha have truly surpassed the pinnacle of human power?"

“Nagato, who possessed the Rinnegan, is not included in this category. Although his power, after extracting the chakra of the Six Paths of Pain, could destroy Konoha in one strike, it is still nothing compared to those two.”

Instead of refuting Kong's words, Xiao Nan simply asked, "Why?"

Sora smiled and replied, "Because the two of them inherited the bloodline of the Sage of Six Paths. To be precise, the chakra of the two sons of the Sage of Six Paths, Hagoromo, is reincarnated in them."

"Do you remember what I mentioned about the Sage's Eye? Madara Uchiha, who inherited Indra's chakra, obtained the power of the Sage's Eye, namely the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan."

After she finished speaking, Konan paused, then asked, "Isn't it the Rinnegan?"

Sora shook his head slightly: "The Rinnegan is the eye of the Sage of Six Paths, but Indra's bloodline is not enough. When these two completely opposite forces interact, all things in the universe can be created."

"This means that when Indra's chakra and Ashura's chakra come together and interact, they can obtain the power of the Sage of Six Paths."

"So now... whose eyes do you think Nagato has?"

!!!

In an instant, Xiao Nan's face turned extremely ugly.

Did Nagato's eyes belong to Madara Uchiha?

but……

"Tobi can't possibly be the real Uchiha Madara."

Uzumaki Sora smiled and nodded: "Indeed, Uchiha Madara is already in the Pure Land. That so-called intern was nothing more than a pawn."

As he spoke, Kong smiled, his senses becoming increasingly powerful due to the bloodline of the Uzumaki clan.

At that moment, Obito should have gone to the memorial tablet immediately, right?

"As I just mentioned, Konoha is Tobi's hometown. So, shall we guess who he really is?"
