Yoriichi raised an eyebrow. "Is Akatsuki trying to threaten me?"
"So, when cooperation fails, you resort to fighting?"
“Since I’m giving you this information, it’s naturally to facilitate our cooperation,” Obito said.
“Kenshin, cooperate with us and we will become the strongest rulers in the ninja world together. Why make things difficult for these people?” Fang Zun interjected, his purple eyes filled with determination, seemingly unconcerned about the Eye of the Moon Plan.
Yoriichi's eyes were deep and cold, and he suddenly chuckled softly.
A towering firebird materialized instantly from the longsword in his hand and shot towards Fang Zun.
Fang Zun and Obito's eyes widened, and they instantly looked away.
As Obito dodged, Yoriichi transformed into a flash of light, his Flying Thunder God Kunai arriving behind Hozon.
"Whoosh!" A fierce bolt of lightning condensed from Yoriichi's hand, directly splitting Fang Zun in two.
After a burst of dust broke, Fang Zun's figure turned into smoke.
“It’s a shadow clone!” Bai blurted out.
Obito's eyes gleamed as he stared at Yoriichi with a half-smile.
"You've come here alone today, haven't you?" Yoriichi said, a cold glint in his eyes.
As a time traveler, Fang Zun was certainly aware of the implications of the Eye of the Moon plan, and it was impossible for him to have said such things back then.
Furthermore, Fang Zun's chakra affinity was familiar, and this type of chakra did not appear after activating Sage Mode.
This is enough to prove that the square bronze vessel in front of us is a fake.
The real Fang Zun may never have told Obito his true identity, including who the mastermind behind the Eye of the Moon plan was.
Fang Zun's goal was to gain sufficient information advantage, leverage the advantages of being a time traveler, and use his "Ten Directions" power to explain everything.
Fang Zun transformed Xiao into a tool, making himself the Water Shadow of the Land of Water and a means to survive.
After witnessing Yoriichi's strength, such a person would probably think of killing him at all costs. How could he possibly think of cooperating?
"You...you surprise me!" Obito laughed wildly and unrestrainedly.
"Someone like you is definitely worth my cooperation!"
"Join us, Kenshin! The Eye of the Moon Project needs your help. We will ultimately be the winners."
"I almost killed both Fang Zun and Itachi. Besides, the news that the Land of Water and Konoha are about to cooperate in an attack is true, isn't it?" Yoriichi asked, his eyes filled with doubt about Obito.
Obito glanced at the group of people beside him, and Yoriichi immediately gestured, turning his head and waving at them.
"You all go back to the village first, I still have some things to discuss."
"Yoriichi, are you alright?" Kisame asked, glancing slightly at Obito Uchiha.
"Don't worry." Yoriichi pointed to his waist, where a kunai stood erect, implying to Kisame that he possessed the Flying Thunder God technique and could escape at any time.
“Alright.” Kisame nodded, and the group exchanged glances before heading down the mountain back to their village as the sun set.
"Can we talk now, Obito Uchiha?" Yoriichi smiled slightly and pointed out after the others left.
"Uchiha Yoriichi, you are very strong, much stronger than Itachi!" Obito suddenly smiled.
"Speaking of which, aren't you afraid of being detected by 'Ten Directions' when you come here?" Yoriichi asked, hinting at something.
Since Obito didn't bring Fang Zun along, it means there are some things he doesn't want Fang Zun to know.
“It won’t hurt to tell you.” Obito tilted his head slightly. “Hozo’s ‘Ten Directions’ has a flaw.”
“The flaw lies in… the barrier.” Obito paused.
“Once a space has a spatial barrier, Fang Zun will not be able to detect this place through the spatial barrier.”
“And I—I’m surrounded by spatial barriers.” Obito chuckled. “How’s this information? It should be very useful to you.”
"Whether it's right or wrong is debatable." Yoriichi didn't relax and said expressionlessly.
"Yoji, I've come to find you, solely for the realization of the Eye of the Moon Plan." Obito's Sharingan beneath his mask appeared slightly serious.
"Akatsuki is just a tool. Fang Zun did join Akatsuki, and everything I said is true."
"Including the cooperation between the Land of Water and Konoha."
"Hmm." Yoriichi seemed to be deep in thought.
“I cannot stop their planned cooperation. Although Fang Zun is a member of Akatsuki, I have no authority to interfere with the actions of a major power like them…” Obito said.
"However, if you are willing to cooperate with me and work together for the Eye of the Moon Project, I can guarantee your safety."
On a high mountain cliff, as the sun sets, two men with the same scarlet eyes and lofty ideals face each other.
Yoriichi smiled and said, "I don't need you to guarantee my safety."
"Then... how about providing you with all the inside information about this war?" Obito asked again, a smirk playing on his lips.
He had long guessed that Yoriichi would not agree to his request because of his own safety, so he could put the new conditions later.
The probability of agreeing increases if the new conditions are more attractive than the previous ones, and the other party has rejected the first condition.
Yoriichi stood in the setting sun, the deep red light making his eyes appear even redder. He took a deep breath and yawned softly.
Chapter 89 Transmitting a Thousand Miles
“Since you’ve made such a big concession, I’ll make a concession in return,” Yoriichi said with a half-smile.
"I can provide you with two extremely powerful subordinates to join the Akatsuki organization and help you capture the Tailed Beasts, how about it?"
"Oh?" Obito seemed somewhat displeased, a hint of hesitation appearing in his eyes.
"You mean you personally don't plan to participate?"
“At least that’s how it is for now.” Yoriichi smiled, observing Obito’s reaction.
"That depends on the strength of those two you mentioned," Obito said.
"Kisame Hoshigaki, one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, once killed Sushiyama Touki single-handedly. What do you think of him?" Yoriichi looked at Obito.
“That’s fine.” Obito nodded slightly. He knew a lot about the Land of Water, especially the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, who were indeed very powerful.
"Another one is Deidara, a master from the Land of Earth who possesses the bloodline limit Explosion Release. He has learned my strongest explosion technique, and his strength is one in a million." Yoriichi didn't hold back his praise; when introducing someone he recommended, he absolutely had to project an imposing aura.
You need to give others the feeling that you've made a profit...
“This…I don’t know much about it.” Obito stared sharply at Yoriichi.
"Don't worry, the people I sent out are all geniuses selected from among thousands. Under the tailed beasts, you can't survive without absolute strength. I have no reason to demean my subordinates."
“Alright, Yoriichi Uchiha, I believe you.” Obito made his final decision. “I hope your people won’t disappoint me too much.”
Obito's eyes flickered slightly. He had originally wanted to get some benefits from Yoriichi, but Yoriichi didn't try to trap him at all. Not only did Yoriichi obtain information during the negotiations, but he also managed to get away unscathed, without getting himself involved, and only sent two subordinates.
Most importantly, these two may not exist solely to help the Akatsuki organization; they are more likely to be undercover agents.
Obito pondered to himself, realizing that Yoriichi must have many different motives, and this terrifying man should not be viewed from a one-sided perspective.
It's terrifying that a boy who's only thirteen years old could have such thoughts.
However... this has nothing to do with him, Uchiha Obito. As for the Akatsuki members, he was only doing it to realize his Eye of the Moon plan. The Akatsuki members were essentially people who used each other. Even if Yoriichi obtained the information, it had nothing to do with him.
It doesn't matter who Yoriichi wants to kill or who he wants to obtain. Obito's ultimate goal has always been the Eye of the Moon Plan, and he is willing to sacrifice anyone's interests for it!
“Of course, it’s a pleasure to cooperate…” Yoriichi smiled. “Then tomorrow, Deidara and Kisame will appear here, and then we can take them away.”
"Okay." Obito smiled politely, his body slowly disappearing from the spot.
The technique of space-time, Kamui—Yoriichi recognized this move.
As dusk fell and darkness gradually descended, Yoriichi gazed at the rustling grass around him and slowly walked down the hill.
Today's collaboration taught Yoriichi a few things.
First, Obito already knew his identity. Whether or not it was revealed to him by Yoriichi, this was something Yoriichi was unwilling to tell Konoha. Because if Konoha knew that he possessed the eyes of two clans, then all the conflicts that had been built up would be transferred to him.
Second, Fang Zun joined the Akatsuki organization and became the Mizukage. He went to Konoha Village to discuss the attack on Kage Village with the Hokage. The situation was urgent, and a major war was about to break out.
Third, Obito was unaware of the mastermind behind the Eye of the Moon Plan. Fang Zun had kept everything from Obito except for the "Ten Directions" and his own identity. This was a good thing for Yoriichi, since he still had a certain information advantage. If he could find an opportunity to kill Fang Zun, all the information advantage would be his.
Fourth, Obito did not completely trust Fang Zun. The two only reached a cooperation based on interests. Moreover, Fang Zun's Ten Directions might be blocked by the barrier. Thinking back to when Fang Zun did not know his identity until he appeared in front of him, Fang Zun gradually learned his identity. This information was very likely true. Fang Zun could only use "Ten Directions" within the Land of Water, which was blocked by the Land of Water's fog barrier. Therefore, he was unaware of outside information.
With a thought, Kisame Hoshigaki, Deidara, and the others reappeared before Yoriichi at the foot of the mountain.
Yoriichi smiled slightly. This was a special skill he had mastered during his last ten draws before upgrading to level three of the strongest gacha system.
SSR special ability card, "Telepathy," allows you to initiate conversations with people from afar, and even gather nearby people into a group chat for dialogue.
Yoriichi previously used this ability to have a conversation with Yamanaka Kaze over a great distance, so it can be said to be very practical.
During his conversation with Obito, Yoriichi used his ability to transmit sound over long distances to pull the group of people coming down the mountain into the sound transmission space and told them not to go down the mountain yet.
Next, Yoriichi transmitted all the information he had from his conversation with Obito to everyone, including Obito's plans and the search for the Tailed Beasts.
During this period, Yoriichi even discussed with Deidara and Kisame the matter of placing them in the Akatsuki organization as supervisors.
Kisame was relatively loyal and agreed without hesitation. He considered himself a loyal ninja who could accept any plan from his superiors.
Deidara was very reluctant, but after much deliberation and Yoriichi's praise, he finally agreed.
"Kenshin, you're really something, selling us both out like that." Deidara glanced at him with a disgruntled smile.
"It's all because you're too amazing. What can I do?" Yoriichi smiled.
"Think about it, who else as young as you would I send to Akatsuki? Kisame next to you is a generation older than you, and that's why I sent him."
Doesn't this just prove how excellent you are?
"You should know that the requirement for joining the Akatsuki organization is having the strength to destroy a small country single-handedly. That's one of the strongest symbols!"
Yoriichi kept subtly guiding Deidara, showering him with praise, watching as Deidara's lips curled up higher and higher.
"Ahem." Deidara coughed lightly, his face slightly flushed. "Although what you said is indeed correct, and my strength is beyond doubt, this matter still needs to be discussed with the two of us beforehand."
"Deidara, I believe in you." Yoriichi walked up to Deidara and gently patted his shoulder. Deidara looked up at the man who had previously tormented and defeated him, who was both his teacher and friend, who had taught him extraordinary skills, a man he absolutely trusted, a man who had saved him, and a man for whom he was willing to give his life.
Deidara lowered his head, a slight pang of sadness in his heart. To be honest, he was truly reluctant to part with this person; it was a strange feeling...
"Kenshin, wait for me to come back," Deidara said solemnly, his fists clenched.
"By then, I will definitely defeat you!"
