In Naruto, you can become a god through gacha pulls.

"Willing to do what..."

"As... your subordinate, as long as I'm not allowed to stay in that kind of room..." Karin hesitated for a moment when she mentioned "your master." The young Yoriichi in front of her didn't look like an adult at all, but her mother said that when dealing with someone you respect, you should call him "your master."

Karin pursed her lips slightly, looked into those captivating, blood-red eyes, and took a deep breath, determined to make up her mind.

"Give me freedom, and I'll do anything!"

Chapter 52 Xiao's New Members

When Karin said those words, Yoriichi almost slipped in mid-air, a hint of embarrassment appearing on his face.

"Then just listen to me and keep getting stronger." Yoriichi gave himself a way out, looked at the still young Karin, and took a deep breath.

"Mmm!" Karin excitedly agreed, hugging Yoriichi tightly in mid-air and nuzzling him.

Yuanben wanted to say something more, but seeing the tears in Karin's eyes, he swallowed his words.

Yoriichi smiled slightly, and his body transformed into a flash of light, beginning to drift rapidly through the air.

Karin looked so pitiful; she probably just wanted to be cared for.

"Clang!" The Flying Thunder God Kunai sliced ​​through a corner of the sky and shot outwards.

In the distance, a black dot slowly grows larger, gradually transforming into a small yellow dot standing on a larger white dot.

Deidara arrived riding a clay bird!

Yoriichi controlled the flash and immediately landed on the bird. Karin watched this magical scene with great excitement.

"A bird that can fly!" Karin laughed, then her gaze fell on Deidara's ponytail.

"Pretty sister!" Karin exclaimed immediately.

"Hey, brat!" Deidara's eyes turned fierce. "I'm not some older sister!"

Karin was stunned. Deidara turned his head, revealing an angry face.

"Handsome...handsome brother." Karin stepped back slightly and hid in Yoriichi's arms.

"Wh...what?" Deidara's face immediately changed, from slight shock to a smug look.

"As expected, the little sister knows how to talk... Humph." Deidara turned around and began to laugh loudly.

"Hahahaha, I'm the coolest!" Deidara stood up, controlling the flying bird to accelerate outwards, creating a powerful whooshing sound.

Deidara's expression changed instantly, as if he had forgotten what Karin had just said.

Seeing Deidara's proud expression, Karin quietly shrank back and whispered in Yoriichi's ear.

"He's lying, sir. You're much more handsome than him."

Yoriichi was slightly taken aback, and his cold eyes were suddenly slashed open.

"Ahem, children say the darndest things, children say the darndest things..." Yuan Yi's lips curled up slightly, showing signs of barely being able to control himself.

But then Eri first leaned close to Karin's ear.

"However, please don't call me 'sir' anymore. From now on, just call me Kenshin."

Yoriichi sighed and smiled wryly, feeling a bit strange that a little girl of a few years old kept calling him "adult."

In his world, this kind of situation wouldn't even pass censorship in a novel.

"Yes, Lord Kenshin!" A determined look appeared on Karin's rosy cheeks.

"This..." Yoriichi didn't care. As for how to address someone... there's no need to be so strict about it.

Asuka quickly flew out of Kusagakure's territory, and the figures of Suigetsu, Haku, and Kisame on the ground gradually grew larger.

Yoriichi smiled slightly. With that, they would be able to form a team to head to Konoha Village.

Just then, a blurry figure appeared in the distance, transforming into a shooting star as it hurtled towards the bird.

Yoriichi's body trembled. A powerful figure was approaching the two of them. Yoriichi glanced to the side.

A pale-faced man dressed in the attire of a ninja from the Land of Grass charged towards the two of them with a punch. His eyes were filled with determination and hatred.

It is worth noting that there was a deep scratch on his headband from the Land of Grass—a mark of a rogue ninja.

......

From a dark cave, the sound of slow, unhurried footsteps could be heard.

Two men walked one after the other inside the cave. Water droplets fell from the upper part of the cave, making a soft dripping sound as they hit the ground.

The man in front wore an orange, swirling mask, through which a pair of blood-red Sharingan eyes were visible.

The man behind her had beautiful blue curly hair, and his purple pupils scanned the surroundings of the cave.

Both of them were wearing black and red uniforms with auspicious cloud patterns.

"Hey, Ban, is this where you usually hold your meetings?" Fang Zun spoke first, a hint of disdain flashing in his bright eyes...

"Hmm." The masked man did not deny it, and led Fang Zun to the deepest part of the cave, where the two sat down on the ground.

Fang Zun stared straight at Obito, a hint of apprehension flashing across his face. He had known Obito's true identity for a long time, but at Obito's request, he still called him Madara.

Obito formed hand seals, and instantly a blurry image composed of colorful dots appeared on the ground. The image rippled like water for a few moments before stabilizing.

The image was still blurry, but gradually several human figures began to emerge.

Payne's authoritative voice rang out first.

"How's it going? The recruitment plan?"

“I’ve found the next leader of the Land of Water! What do you think, Fang Zun?” Obito’s voice became playful as he spoke to the group.

Fang Zun knew that he was trying to conceal his original identity, since few people in the current timeline knew his true identity.

"I am Fang Zun, the 'Prophet' of the Water Kingdom." Fang Zun looked at the image and began to introduce himself. Through the image, he gradually recognized the identities of the people in front of him.

The four figures, among them a deep-voiced, authoritative, and somewhat eccentric man, are Payne, the leader of the organization.

The woman with paper flowers as hair ornaments is Konan; the man with a cold expression and heavy nasolabial folds and Sharingan eyes is Itachi Uchiha; and the last one, a lying puppet that doesn't look very human, is Sasori.

“It seems that Akatsuki’s recruitment plan has only just begun…” Fang Zun pondered, when Obito suddenly stared into his eyes.

Fang Zun was startled and unconsciously took a step back. Obito patted Fang Zun on the shoulder and continued speaking.

"Let's tentatively make you Sasori's ally." Obito smiled happily like a child.

"What are the conditions?" Xiao Nan asked.

When new members join, she always tries to understand their motives first; no one becomes a member of Akatsuki for no reason.

The characters in Xiao are all people with great ideals who want to realize their innermost wishes!

Obito chuckled, "I'll help Fang Zun become the new Mizukage of the Land of Water, and he'll assist with our plan!"

“That’s right,” Fang Zun agreed, revealing a clever smile.

Originally, he intended to control the Land of Water by controlling Yagura, but Yagura disobeyed his orders and launched a siege against Yoriichi.

He is undoubtedly dead.

Fang Zun clicked his tongue, and then he ran into Uchiha Obito. What bad luck...

During that conversation, Fang Zun kept weighing the strength comparison between the two, and finally came to the conclusion that at most he could escape, but could not defeat Uchiha Obito.

Even if I could escape, there's nowhere particularly worthwhile to run away from...

I can't just throw away the situation I've built up in the Land of Water after all this time.

Fang Zun then calmly confronted Obito and discussed cooperation. Fang Zun proposed that Obito help him obtain the position of the Fifth Mizukage, and in return, he would assist the Akatsuki organization.

"Hmm..." Konan listened to Obito's words and began to think deeply. She clearly agreed with the reasoning and felt there was nothing wrong with it.

As for Uchiha Yoriichi, who killed the Fourth Mizukage, Fang Zun didn't mention him at all, which exposed Yoriichi's identity as a transmigrator. It also meant that his own identity couldn't be hidden anymore, so he might as well use this advantage to his own advantage.

Although he could use "prophecy" as an excuse for a special skill, Fang Zun felt that the risk was too great. If the big shots found out that he actually knew their plans, he would probably be assassinated thousands of times.

Especially that sixth brother, Black Zetsu!

The sealed body of the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, was temporarily left unexcavated because Obito believed it was untouchable due to its chakra-poisoned barrier.

Fang Zun also said he was unaware of this.

"Hehe, as expected of me, so clever." Fang Zun felt a sweet satisfaction and gave himself a thumbs up.

Now he doesn't need to explain, and he can get Xiaoshun to help him out!

Although with his strength, becoming the Mizukage wouldn't be difficult...

As the meeting ended, the flickering images gradually faded, and the cave, which had been dotted with light, returned to darkness.

Behind Fang Zun, Obito's eyes were exposed; they were extremely indifferent yet full of profound meaning.

Chapter 53 The Warden of the Blood Curse

"Fire Release: Heavenly Prison!" Above the territory of the Land of Grass, a fair-skinned rogue ninja from the Land of Grass, his face filled with excitement, threw a Fire Release ninjutsu at Deidara's flying bird.

It was an enormous iron cage of flames. The intense heat gradually approached the two of them, and Deidara's clay bird was affected by the heat, causing it to slowly fall downwards.

"What..." Deidara was stunned. It was the first time he had ever seen such intense fire that could almost melt his clay bird!

Yoriichi narrowed his eyes slightly, and Karin, whom he was holding, looked at the man, her pupils bulging instantly.

"It's the warden... Wuwei!"

Yoriichi began to conjure Chidori in his left hand, the crackling electricity resembling the brilliant fireworks in the sky dyed blue by the moon.

Since the clay Asuka could no longer withstand the high temperature, Yoriichi chose to use Chidori to defeat the enemy in front of him.

"Wuwei? Is he the lord of Hozuki Castle in the Land of Grass from the movie?" Yoriichi's eyes darted around, vaguely remembering him. This character was one of the most powerful figures in the Land of Grass.

He controlled most of the prisoners in Hozuki Castle with his sealing techniques, so it seems he hadn't become the warden of Hozuki Castle at this time.

Originally a rogue ninja from the Land of Grass, he was eventually captured and recruited into the Land of Grass's powerful prison as its warden, possessing strength approaching that of a Kage!

"Zzzzt!" Yoriichi's body was like a black phantom, leaving a black afterimage in the moonlight. Lightning flashed and his figure disappeared in an instant.

Wuwei stared wide-eyed, sensing the rustling of the wind and the movement of the grass around him. The fiery iron cage in front of him was still getting closer and closer to the bird, and only Yoriichi himself had disappeared.

"Did they escape?" Wuwei's brows gradually relaxed.
