Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

Did Uchiha Kumo and Uzumaki Sora's wills coincide?

Kisame's body trembled slightly. Only now did he understand what Kisame meant by "this level".

"I understand."

"It's good that you understand. Don't do anything foolish, because even if you do, it won't make any sense."

“You and I both come from Kirigakure. What you see is the irrationality of Kirigakure, while what I see is the irrationality of this world.”

Kisame's eyes flickered as he spoke: "This distorted world will never have true peace before this. It makes me feel like I'm not alive. But the will of Akatsuki, and even the will of Lord Sora, made me feel the possibility of that real world for the first time."

"To ensure this will continues, I would give my life without hesitation. Betrayal... it's truly despicable!"

……

Meanwhile, in the Death Forest.

"Three kilometers at the eleven o'clock position, this is the coordinate where the Nine-Tails' chakra lingers for the longest time."

Karin looked at Shikamaru as she spoke: "The Nine-Tails' chakra disappeared from my senses for a while, and then reappeared. That location is very likely where Neji and the others are."

Shikamaru nodded without saying anything.

After a while, a little mouse made of ink appeared and handed Shikamaru a small note.

After taking a look, Shikamaru used a twig to write and draw on the ground.

It is 3 kilometers in the 11 o'clock direction and 2 kilometers in the 2 o'clock direction, with a total distance of about 3.6 kilometers.

"Sasuke, with the genjutsu of the three-tomoe Sharingan, how long can you keep the Nine-Tails asleep?"

Sasuke pondered for a moment before replying, "The Nine-Tails' chakra reserves are enormous, but it should take about five seconds for him to react and for the time it takes to unleash his power."

Shikamaru nodded, then looked at Karin: "The Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques are inherently effective against the Nine-Tails. I need to know how long your sealing techniques can hold the Nine-Tails."

Karin replied with certainty, "Five minutes, five minutes is my limit. But I need to tell you that the Adamantine Sealing Barrier can freeze a Tailed Beast in place, but it will also prevent the Tailed Beast from moving."

"The Uzumaki clan has a special physique, and their chakra is much larger than that of a ninja. It is precisely because of this amount of chakra that the sealing chains can temporarily trap the tailed beasts."

Upon hearing this, Shikamaru nodded.

If it cannot be moved, then the plan we just came up with will need to be changed.

Our group hasn't met those guys yet, but we can't rule out the possibility that they also have special sensory abilities, so we can only assume that they know we've already gathered.

Their goal is Class 7, and eliminating Class 7 is even more important than passing the second exam.

This is the purpose...

So... let's split into teams!

……

A day has passed since the second Chunin Exams, but a strange scene has occurred in Training Ground 44.

The nineteen teams split into two groups, creating a stalemate as they watched each other closely.

Meanwhile, the three members of the Sunagakure team had already eliminated three other teams and obtained the corresponding scrolls, but instead of rushing to the tower, they waited at a distance from the two opposing sides, also observing.

The four teams of Kumogakure's genin, like Sunagakure, chose to wait and see.

As for the remaining nine squads, they were now fighting like idiots, launching numerous attacks that resembled chickens pecking at each other, without managing to deliver a single decisive blow.

"The twelve new recruits of Konoha have gathered together. Shall we give it a try?"

Wu Ye was somewhat tempted.

But Kurotsuchi shook her head: "I've seen some of the old man's information. The genin who graduated from the Konoha Ninja Academy this year are known as the strongest generation. Although I don't know how much of that 'strongest' is exaggerated, it's still better to be careful."

Zhi Tu frowned: "But will this standoff continue indefinitely? We've sensed their presence, and they must have the same methods."

After hearing this, Heitu pondered for a moment and then drew three dots on the ground, forming a triangle.

"You mean... why don't they go find the Nine-Tails?"

Raising his head, Kurotsuchi said solemnly, "The Nine-Tails' half-body has always been with Uchiha Izumi, so the new generation of Ino-Shika-Cho, as Uchiha Izumi's disciples, should be very familiar with the Nine-Tails, right?"

Zhi Tu and Wu Ye nodded.

So Kurotsuchi thought for a moment and said, "It seems that my previous guess was about right. The Nine-Tails wasn't let in by that person to make things difficult for us. Its real purpose is probably with the genin of Konoha."

"Lure the Nine-Tails to them and use its power to eliminate them all!"

Just then, the ground on the ground began to shake slightly.

The sensory ninja from Iwagakure landed: "It's Konoha genin, seven of them!"

Hei Tu suddenly stood up and asked, "Is there a Class Seven?"

The person shook their head: "No."

Heitu frowned deeply: "They know our purpose. Seven people are divided into three squads, and two more should be hiding. Are they going to sacrifice nine people and then send the Seventh Squad directly to the vicinity of the tower with the scroll?"

"The five-day survival period hasn't even ended yet... Is it really that urgent?"

Haruto, who was standing nearby, reminded them, "Team 7 has a girl from the Hyuga main family. With the Byakugan's detection ability, it's not impossible for her to avoid us if she really wants to."

Wu Ye nodded: "If that's the case, it's quite possible that they could just walk right through it."

Heitu still had some doubts.

But she clearly understood that she couldn't afford to gamble, just as the other side knew that their only target was Class 7.

Whether or not you pass this exam is not important.

"Chito, you and Muya, along with the people from Kirigakure and the reconnaissance squad, will keep a close watch on Team 7. Stick to their tails and make sure they don't slip out of our sight and head to the tower."

Zhi Tu paused, then asked, "And what about you?"

Heitu replied, "There are nine people in three classes. Since they've already been brought up, wouldn't it be a waste not to eat them?"

"Get your money ready. If you encounter the Nine-Tails, don't hesitate to pay it."

……

After half an hour.

When Chito and the others who had given chase arrived at the location, they found Shikamaru sitting alone on a rock, waiting for them leisurely.

"The timing should be just right."

As soon as he finished speaking, a roar came from not far away, and the violent commotion made the surrounding giant trees feel oppressed.

In an instant, several kunai were thrown from the tree trunk at Zhi Tu and the others, having no effect, but they did make their presence known.

"Nine people? No! How could you be?"

Shikamaru smiled and replied, "Those are just shadow clones. Because the amount of chakra is not small, your perception is distorted."

"There are quite a few of you here, so would you like to give it a try? The Nine-Tails should be here soon."

Wu Ye formed a hand seal, but the next moment he found himself unable to move.

"Since I'm certain that some of you will be coming, I'll definitely make some preparations, such as cutting off some branches from the trees overhead and tying a slightly thicker rope to create a connection between the shadows."

The next moment, Ino, perched on the tree trunk, clasped her hands together: the art of exchanging hearts.

"Shh!"

"boom!"

Jido blocked Muyato's short sword with a kunai held horizontally, but this scene stunned the genin of Kirigakure.

"It's a secret technique of the mountain tribe!"

"Kill them!"

Kunai shot out, and five genin attacked Ino at the same time.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

A giant tiger made of ink and wash leaped out, but its claws were blocked by a short sword.

The water flowed like cannonballs, washing Sai's giant tiger completely clean.

"Some things were restrained..."

The words had barely left his mouth when one person was blocked by the root. As soon as his skin touched his opponent, the nano-sized venomous insects instantly corroded his skin.

"boom!"

As the gigantic arm fell, Choji was suddenly lifted up by the ground beneath his feet and was caught off guard when a knife slashed across his chest.

If it weren't for the giant bird drawn by Sai that carried it away, this attack would probably have been enough to rip it open.

"asshole!!"

Seeing his companion injured, the four-legged maneuver kicked the enemy in front of him away, but when he turned around and landed, he found that the soil under his feet had turned into a swamp.

At this moment, Muya, who had been controlled by Ino, also broke free of her control.

Ino, who was on the tree trunk, also fell down, but was lifted up by Sai's giant bird and soared into the air.

"What a terrifying new generation! Have Uchiha Izumi's disciples all grown to this level?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a stream of water appeared behind Ya, and Wu Ye revealed his ferocious serrated teeth: "The first one."

"Human Bomber Tank!!"

A roar rang out, and a shadow descended from the sky, smashing the water flow to pieces.

The rolling figure didn't stop until it had completely cleared the swamp before finally coming to a halt.

"Choji!"

Having already fainted, Choji swayed and sat down on the ground, shaking his head as he looked at his teeth: "I'm fine... ugh... it's good that you're alright."

"Shh!"

A bright light shot out instantly, and Kiba tackled Choji to the ground, but was still hit.

It was a drop of water, yet it pierced straight through the shoulder of the tooth like a kunai.

"One death has turned into two deaths, there's no point in struggling anymore!"

As Wu Ye spoke, he raised his hands, and water droplets shot out from the tips of his fingers.

"Shikamaru!!"
