Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

Seeing a pair of hands about to reach out, Kurama obediently released a little chakra.

In an instant, a chilling chakra filled the entire living room, and Izumi's outstretched hand froze in mid-air.

Then, at Yun's instruction, Kurama reclaimed its chakra, glancing at Izumi with disdain.

Humans are such scum!

At this moment, Uchiha Hazuki realized that her son wasn't joking, so she looked at Kurama with suspicion and then at Yun, asking, "Is it really Kurama? But bringing it home like this..."

Understanding her mother's worries, Yun could only say, "Actually, as long as we treat each other equally, the Nine-Tailed Fox is quite easy to get along with, and it will always follow me, so there won't be any problems."

The nine-tailed fox on the shoulder raised its paw, indicating its agreement with Yun's words.

This scene, however, made Quan's heart itch with desire. Was that... a fleshy pad?

Pink and pink...so cute!

So, from the moment Yun entered the room until she went to wash up, Quan kept staring at the Nine-Tailed Fox.

At this time, Yun had to leave the Nine-Tailed Fox in the living room because she needed to wash up.

"That... Nine-Tails..."

"You rude Uchiha brat, you should address me as 'sir' and use honorifics!"

Upon hearing this, Izumi immediately changed his form of address and respectfully asked, "Lord Nine-Tailed Fox... um... I can..."

Izumi, who seemed about to speak but hesitated, pointed to Kurama's claws. Kurama followed her gaze and asked in confusion, "What do you want to do?"

With a fawning smile, Quan asked, "May I... touch the... paw pads?"

What a strange request!

Just outrageous!

The nine-tailed fox, tilting its head, couldn't understand why, since ancient times, some people would be terrified upon seeing it, while others would be so frightened that their legs would go weak...

Some even went so far as to beat themselves up by pressing down on their own heads, claiming that they were too dangerous.

But now this little girl in front of me is asking to touch my paws. What's going on?

After thinking for a moment, the Nine-Tails impatiently stretched out its claw and presented it to Izumi: "Seeing how respectful you are, I will grant your request."

In an instant, Quan couldn't wait to reach out his wicked hands.

……

Meanwhile, in the shadows of Konoha.

White Zetsu's body slowly emerged from the tree trunk.

Obito, who was wearing a mask, asked, "Is it confirmed? Is that really the Nine-Tails on Uchiha Yun's shoulder?"

White Zetsu nodded: "I can sense that the Nine-Tails can live its entire life without needing to poop, there's no mistake about that."

After automatically filtering out White Zetsu's trash talk, Obito's expression turned somewhat serious.

In fact, from the first time he saw Uchiha Yun's Mangekyou Sharingan, he had some doubts about the eye power in his eyes that far exceeded his own.

Uzumaki Sora's kaleidoscopes can be understood as him gaining a lot of eye power through a transaction, but Uchiha Yun's case can only be explained by one other reason.

That is... the eternal Mangekyou Sharingan!

But how did they manage to do that?

My sister only has two tomoe, and my father's grave is overgrown with weeds.

In this case, how did the Eternal Eye come about?

The reason why the Hokage gave him a portion of the Nine-Tails is self-evident.

"Obito, why doesn't Kurama (the Nine-Tails) feel the urge to poop, just like me?"

"And that Uchiha Yun, he seems to be able to spot me sometimes, it's terrifying, I can't even peek at him."

"Oh, right, there's also Uzumaki Sora. He activated a small barrier as soon as he entered the hot spring inn. I suspect he and Konan were secretly taking a dump! Seriously!"

……

Unable to bear the harassment from White Zetsu any longer, Obito clenched his fists, turned to look at him, and said, "Where's Black Zetsu? With that guy around, things are a little quieter. Why isn't he here?"

As Obito finished speaking, half of White Zetsu's body was gradually covered by darkness.

"Are you looking for me?"

Obito paused for a moment, then replied, "I asked you to shut this guy up. All he talks about is needing to poop all day long. I'm afraid I might not be able to resist killing him."

Hei Jue said indifferently, "I understand. It won't do this when I'm around."

Black Zetsu then asked, "Ku Uzumaki's activities within the Akatsuki organization are becoming increasingly significant. His teaming up with Konan this time is a signal of this."

Obito frowned beneath the mask: "I know."

Black Zetsu paused, then said in a deep voice, "Don't forget our plan. His existence is already a variable."

Obito clenched his fists, his heart churning with emotion.

The Eye of the Moon Project will eventually be realized, but it won't be Madara who realizes it; it will only be me!

Dead people, just stay in hell!

He doesn't deserve to exist in the beautiful world of dreams!

As for Black Zetsu, who is Madara Uchiha's will, he will be eliminated once he has no more use to Madara.

"call……"

After letting out a breath, Obito replied in a deep voice, "You should know very well my purpose for this mission to Iwagakure. Uzumaki Sora's intelligence capabilities are too troublesome. Only by knowing the limits of his power can we set up a deadly trap against him..."

After he finished speaking, Black Zetsu thought for a moment and nodded.

He also harbored extraordinary apprehension towards Uzumaki Sora. His intelligence-gathering abilities, and his seemingly appearing identity…

No one can stop me from rescuing my mother!

……

Chapter 175: The Meeting of the Main Body and the Clone

The next evening, at a barbecue restaurant.

Whirlpool Sora wrapped the freshly grilled meat in lettuce and stuffed it into her mouth in one bite.

Konan, who was standing nearby, glanced at the grill and asked, "It's been two days, and Konoha hasn't given a response yet. Is it because they don't want Uchiha Kumo to fight you?"

Sora swallowed the grilled meat, smiled, and replied, "In Konoha's eyes, although I am mysterious, I have no foundation. The sudden demand to fight Uchiha Yun will naturally raise some questions for them."

"The reason why Iwagakure issued such a mission was to test the true strength of Uchiha Kumo. And the purpose of spreading the news of the recent killing of the Third Raikage's body through spies from other villages who were unaware of it was also Konoha's goal."

Konan paused, pondered for a moment, and then replied, "In the previous battle between Konoha and Kumogakure, the performance of Konoha's high-level combatants aroused the apprehension of the other four great ninja villages, so..."

Sora picked up the meat he had just wrapped, glanced at Konan, and then stuffed it into his own mouth: "You guessed right. Once the fear has appeared, it won't be easily eliminated. After all, there are three pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan from the Uchiha clan, plus Kakashi, the Yellow Flash who is the Hokage, and the Hokage's wife who is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki..."

"Orochimaru defected, but Jiraiya and Tsunade, two of the Legendary Sannin, although they are often away from home, are still Konoha ninjas..."

"Furthermore... Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage, was once known as a ninja hero. He's just old, but he's not dead yet."

"With so many high-level combatants, the other four major ninja villages have realized since their defeat at Kumogakure that perhaps only by uniting, as they have done in the past, can they fight against Konoha."

Sora picked up the sake next to him and took a sip. The feeling of drinking sake was something that his original self, who was only thirteen years old, could not enjoy.

"In this situation, even though Konoha knows my purpose is to help other ninja villages test Uchiha Kumo, they will still agree. Because they... have unwavering trust in Uchiha Kumo's power!"

As he spoke, Sora looked at Konan and said, "Having also obtained the Mangekyou Sharingan through a transaction, I know clearly how terrifying that guy's eye power is. Every time the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan is used, it will cause irreparable damage to one's eyesight."

"With Uchiha Yun's eye power, it's clear he doesn't have any problems with his eyesight. Therefore, in the eyes of Onoki of Iwagakure, his power is naturally equated with that of Uchiha Madara."

As soon as he finished speaking, Uzumaki Sora looked out the curtain of the private room and teased, "Since the Hokage is here, why don't you come in and sit down? If you haven't eaten, you can join us."

Hokage?

These words startled Xiao Nan, who was on the other side, and then she looked over.

Minato, beaming, lifted the curtain and walked in: "I just came from the Hokage Building and haven't eaten yet, so I'll have to bother you!"

Sora smiled and said, "It's hard to believe that the Hokage would eavesdrop and freeload, but it's an honor for us."

Ignoring Sora's taunts, Minato calmly sat down.

This scene, however, felt very surreal to Xiao Nan on the other side.

After assigning the task of probing Uchiha Cloud to Uzumaki Sora, she originally thought it would involve sneaking in and then finding Uchiha Cloud to fight him.

The best-case scenario is to complete the mission and retreat before Konoha's reinforcements arrive. If that doesn't work, Uzumaki Sora will revive after a while, and Obito can take him away.

but now……

Konan looked at the man opposite her who was still wearing the Fourth Hokage's trench coat. Had he just finished a day's work?

What started as a confrontation has now turned into sharing a barbecue table with the Hokage...

It's simply...magical.

Minato casually ate a piece of grilled meat from the grill pan, then narrowed his eyes and said, "I used to often go on missions outside the village, but no matter where I was, none of the grilled meat in Konoha tasted as good."

Sora shook his head slightly: "It's not that the barbecue tastes good, but only in Konoha can you only think about the taste of the barbecue without having to be wary of the danger that may appear at any time."

Minato nodded at these words: "So, what's your decision, Sora? Do you want to come back to Konoha?"

Uzumaki looked at Minato with a nonchalant expression: "I never said I was considering joining Konoha, and the word 'come back' isn't quite appropriate, is it?"

Minato shook his head slightly: "When Konoha was first established, the Uzumaki clan would definitely have joined Konoha if it weren't for the existence of the Land of Whirlpools. The First Hokage's wife, my wife, was from the Uzumaki clan."

After a moment's thought, Sora looked at Minato with a puzzled expression and said, "It seems that the Hokage has great ambitions... Having Uchiha Cloud, whose power is comparable to that of Uchiha Madara, is not enough. If you successfully recruit me, what do you plan to do next? Unify the ninja world?"

"call……"

Minato exhaled: "Your intelligence capabilities are still so strong... You can even know the current level of Yun's power. So what are you relying on?"

"Perhaps your purpose in challenging Kumo this time is to test the waters, then it must be one of the other four great ninja villages that issued you the mission... Is Kumo now... a mercenary organization?"

Konan, standing to the side, looked at Minato and said, "As the Hokage, it's one thing to freeload and eavesdrop, but now you're openly trying to extract information?"

Uzumaki Sora raised his hand to stop Konan, then said with a smile, "If we're talking about relying on... does not dying count?!"
