Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

Minato raised his hand, but quickly lowered it again.

Itachi shook his head slightly: "There's no need. He wasn't the one who killed my father. It concerns the secrets of this world, and I have to make a choice based on the comparison."

As soon as he finished speaking, Minato quickly added, "Itachi made his choice for the sake of the village and the ninja world. But as Hokage, I need to remind you that if your identity is exposed in Konoha, that will be the time you are imprisoned."

Obito nodded and smiled.

Before this, although the four major ninja villages all knew that he was Uchiha Obito, the people they knew all wore masks, and he could change his voice.

"The true purpose of the Infinite Tsukuyomi is actually to rescue his mother, who is Kaguya Otsutsuki, also known as the Goddess of the Rabbit."

The information from just the first paragraph stunned Minato and Itachi.

Minato followed up immediately, asking, "That legendary person is still alive? How is that possible? Or does Black Zetsu want to resurrect her?"

Obito shook his head slightly: "It's not resurrection, but the breaking of the seal."

As he spoke, Obito looked up at the moon in the sky: "The information you have is correct. The Sage of Six Paths and his brother have sealed their mother away, and the Infinite Tsukuyomi is the only way to break the seal."

"Not only that. You should have seen the white monster that Black Zetsu used to gather intelligence before. Although that thing has the power of Hashirama's cells, its true origin is humans from thousands of years ago."

"And you've seen the number of White Zetsu, 100,000. These are monsters that were conceived by the Infinite Tsukuyomi thousands of years ago."

"The illusion created by Infinite Tsukuyomi is a false peace; Black Zetsu's only thought is to rescue Kaguya Otsutsuki."

"And I... along with Madara Uchiha, are nothing more than its pawns. And it, too, has lived for thousands of years."

Minato replied, "But it's not human. Those things that can turn into liquid at any time aren't human at all. It can exist for thousands of years, but humans can't."

Yun, who was standing nearby, then spoke up: "That guy has a special power within him. Before it reached this level, even I couldn't kill it."

Obito glanced at the cloud: "The prerequisite for Kaguya Otsutsuki to be unsealed is the Infinite Tsukuyomi, and the Infinite Tsukuyomi itself can only be achieved after becoming the Ten-Tails..."

"The Ten-Tails Jinchuriki is at the Sage level. You could even say that reaching that level is similar to Uchiha Kumo and Uzumaki Sora in the present day."

"Black Zetsu now only has the power of 100,000 White Zetsu and itself, but it also has three tailed beasts under its control. In addition, it has also found a substitute for the Nine-Tails' chakra."

alternatives?

Obito smiled and said, "I will use the Impure World Reincarnation to revive Kinkaku and Ginkaku of Kumogakure, and then extract the Nine-Tails' chakra from their bodies in a special way."

"Although this method has its flaws, it is indeed possible. By gathering the chakra of the nine tailed beasts into the Gedo Mazo to awaken the Ten-Tails, one can become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, which is equivalent to the Sage level."

As soon as he finished speaking, Minato and Itachi both froze on the spot.

Just as Minato said a long time ago, the world seems to have gone into chaos, with every piece of information pointing to a legendary figure from thousands of years ago.

From this perspective, it's not entirely incomprehensible that the Sage of Six Paths' mother didn't die.

"These mythical figures are appearing one by one. The mother of the Sage of Six Paths—her power is probably unimaginable..."

Minato's eyes were filled with worry.

Yun, standing nearby, then spoke up: "It's certainly clever of them to obtain the Nine-Tails' chakra through trickery, but it's only four-tenths of the nine tailed beasts. If we can't win, wouldn't it be better to just prevent her from coming out?"

……

Chapter 331: Fighting Against God

For some time now, Minato has felt himself becoming increasingly alienated from this world.

During the Third Shinobi World War, thanks to his Flying Thunder God Technique, he was able to stand at the top of the shinobi world, even leading the other four great shinobi villages to say that they could abandon their mission if they encountered the Yellow Flash.

But now...

Rinnegan, Sage of Six Paths, Sage of Six Paths' younger brother, Sage of Six Paths' mother...

Minato rubbed his temples. How come they're all from the same family?

"While you are allowed to stay in Konoha, this does not mean you are allowed to move freely within the village. You should understand your own identity. Although you may not be recognized when you remove your mask, your chakra cannot be changed."

Obito nodded upon hearing this: "I just want to stay here, I won't go anywhere else."

At this moment, Yun leaned closer to Shuimen and deliberately whispered, "We've already extracted all the information from him, he's no longer of any value. How about we kill him?"

Minato paused, looking at Yun with surprise: "Isn't doing this... a bad idea?"

With a shrug, Yun smiled and Itachi vanished in a flash.

Meanwhile, Obito, who had been tense just moments before, relaxed.

That's absolutely inhuman!

After glancing in the direction the two Uchiha had left, Minato sighed and walked to Obito's side, bending down to place his hand on Rin Nohara's memorial tablet.

"I am your teacher, and also the Kage of this village. If the other four great ninja villages discover your existence, then I will also take action against you..."

Before Obito could say anything, Minato vanished from the spot.

After countless comings and goings, only Obito remained at the memorial monument once again.

He closed his Sharingan, his destroyed half-face contorted in a slightly ferocious expression. Before this, he had always worn the vortex mask; after this, unless one was a specific sensory ninja, no one would know he was Uchiha Obito when he concealed his chakra.

The once helpful Obito Uchiha is dead. Obito Uchiha, who aimed to capture the Tailed Beasts with the Infinite Tsukuyomi, is also dead.

The goal now is true peace.

……

"Splash..."

A cool breeze swept through, swirling the fallen leaves as they drifted away in the moonlight.

"What is Black Zetsu's ability? Your ability is the Mangekyou Sharingan, which allows you to manipulate space and time. So what is Black Zetsu's ability, since he was also able to escape from the clouds?"

Obito smiled at Itachi, who had returned: "You can't kill it. Without power at that level, there's nothing you can do, not even with the Mangekyou Sharingan."

Upon hearing this, Itachi frowned slightly: "What about the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan?"

Obito shook his head slightly: "You still don't understand. Legend has it that the Sage of Six Paths founded the Ninja Clan, and this is recorded on the stone tablet under the Naka Shrine. So do you think that the third child of the Rabbit Goddess can be dealt with by the Sharingan alone?"

"Before this, I always thought it was Madara Uchiha's will. Madara Uchiha awakened the Rinnegan in his later years with the help of Hashirama's cells, which was also another level of power, the power of the Six Paths."

“Uzumaki Sora told me that the stone tablet could be real or fake. The Rinnegan can summon the Gedo Mazo, which is the body of the Ten-Tails. The Ten-Tails Jinchuriki can activate Infinite Tsukuyomi and can also release genjutsu through the moon to control the entire world.”

“Apart from the ultimate goal of achieving peace, everything else is basically true... Uchiha Itachi, I also really want to kill this bastard who is the root of everything, but I know I can’t do it.”

After a moment of silence, Itachi spoke: "Only Yun has the ability to truly kill it, right?"

Uchiha Kumo's words...

With Uzumaki Sora's blue eyes and his Rinnegan with six tomoe that surpassed Madara Uchiha's, his power was beyond his estimation.

"Let's go, Itachi. Minato leaked some information, so we need to report it."

The sudden sound behind him startled Obito. He turned around and saw Uchiha Yun staring at him.

"Don't just ask for information and then spill it all. You're not Uzumaki Sora; it would be easy for me to kill you here."

A bead of sweat dripped from Obito's forehead.

……

Hokage Building.

"So the weakest party is now even weaker, but if the other side achieves its goal, then we might be facing an old witch who has lived for thousands of years?"

Shikaku summarized for a moment, then looked at Yun and said, "If that's the case, I suggest arranging for another tailed beast to settle in Konoha to ensure everything goes smoothly."

"After all, they have already found a replacement for the Nine-Tails' chakra. Judging from the cases of the First, Second, and Third Raikage being resurrected using Edo Tensei, the Kinkaku and Ginkaku of Kumogakure may already be in Black Zetsu's hands."

After a moment's thought, Minato asked, "How much longer until the Chunin Exams?"

Shikamaru replied, "The day after tomorrow, all the Jonin instructors will be notified to assemble, and after the recommendations, the other four major ninja villages will be notified. The location for the joint Chunin Exams has been Konoha for the past three years."

Minato nodded: "When the Kage of the other four great ninja villages arrive, I will discuss with them the matter of temporarily storing the Tailed Beasts in Konoha."

At this point, Minato looked at Itachi and asked, "Did Nagato of Akatsuki obtain Nagato's Rinnegan using the cells of the First Hokage?"

Itachi nodded.

Yun, who was standing nearby, said, "According to the information we received before, the last reincarnations of Indra's chakra and Ashura's chakra were the First Hokage and Madara Uchiha. Combining this with the information on the stone tablet, we can draw a conclusion."

As Yun spoke, he looked at Itachi and said, "It seems that Sasuke's ultimate goal is not the Eternal Eye, but the Rinnegan of the Sage of Six Paths."

Minato hesitated for a moment: "During the Second Hokage's time, because the power of Wood Release was effective against the Tailed Beasts, the village conducted many experiments, primarily on a voluntary basis..."

"The power of Wood Release is very tempting, but the final experiments all failed. No one could resist the aggressiveness of the First Hokage's cells... Perhaps we should be more cautious."

Yun Kai thought for a moment and replied, "Have Sasuke draw some blood, and with Kabuto Yakushi as the team leader, start by conducting a compatibility test between the two."

"Right now, his body can't even withstand the Mangekyou Sharingan's eye techniques. Even if the Rinnegan, which is above the Eternal Eye, is successfully conceived and awakened, he will only end up like Hinata."

Minato nodded to Shikaku, saying he would give the instructions tomorrow.

After taking targeted measures based on the known intelligence, the office fell silent for a moment.

Although Konoha has always been the strongest of the three parties, it now seems that the other side is not without the potential to fight back.

Kaguya Otsutsuki, the Goddess of the Rabbit...

Such a god, who has lived for thousands of years and whose legendary Six Paths Sage is merely his eldest son, is an enemy that must be defeated.

"Yun, you..."

Before Minato could finish speaking, Yun shook his head.

"No need to ask, we can't win."

Minato paused for a moment, then frowned and lowered his head in deep thought.

After exhaling, Yun said, "Before this, I always thought that the end of my bloodline might be the Sage of Six Paths, but now that these eyes have been opened, I have found that the changes in my body have not stopped."

"This phenomenon is enough to show that there is an even stronger power. Kaguya Otsutsuki, the mother of the Sage of Six Paths."

"Perhaps we can compete in the future, but we certainly can't win now."

Itachi said, "She existed as a god thousands of years ago, and the entire chakra system was even created by her son. I can't imagine what kind of power she would have."

"If we cannot resist it, then preventing it from breaking the seal is the most important thing right now, even more important than the threat posed by the Akatsuki."

At this moment, Shikaku, who had been silently pondering, spoke up.

"I just came back from Daimyo Prefecture. I have some impression of the records of the goddess of the rabbit in the literature. After all, I have been paying attention to myths and legends ever since the surname Ōtsutsuki appeared."

"The title 'Goddess of the Rabbit' refers to a benevolent deity, but in mythology, she also had another name: 'Oni' (demon)!"
