Konoha: Prepare to defect, the system is coming

"My most valued subordinate!!"

"The moment I knew you were going to capture the tailed beast, I really wanted to send Daito Samehada to you, but... alas."

"Terumi Mei-sama asked me to remind you to pay attention to your safety. If you are exposed, you can give up the undercover mission immediately. If you are not exposed, you can try to infiltrate them and gain the trust of those people."

"Kisame, the village's finances have been tight recently. The 25 million taels you handed over to the village have been almost used. This is the 50,000 taels I personally sponsored you. There is no need to save."

After reading the delivered letter, Kisame was silent for a long time, then crumpled it into a ball and stuffed it into his mouth.

Crunch! Crunch!

With a chewing sound, the letter was instantly bitten into pieces and swallowed in one gulp.

"Are you trying to gain their trust? Do you want to find the person who hired them from the Akatsuki organization?" Kisame glanced around expressionlessly, then leaned against the tree trunk, his eyes gradually losing focus.

According to normal logic, after he reported the matter, Kirigakure Village should have joined forces with Iwagakure Village. The two sides used tailed beasts to destroy the plot of the Akatsuki organization and at the same time catch the person behind the scenes.

But the reality is

Kirigakure told him to do it boldly and said that losing the fourth and fifth tails would only bring benefits and no disadvantages.

And Kisame naturally understands the benefits.

Since one's own side cannot be strengthened in a short period of time, then one must weaken the enemy's side in a short period of time, so that one can gain an advantage in future ninja wars.

"It is really a hypocritical world." Kisame shook his head and sneered, "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the people behind the scenes must have amazing plans. Are they really not afraid that this matter will get out of control?"

But these things are not what he has to worry about. Since the village has given clear instructions, he just needs to carry out the orders.

Afterwards, Kisame disappeared from the spot, caught up with the tall man in front, and asked with a grin, "What is our next plan? Go straight into Iwagakure Village. I'm afraid that not only will we not be able to catch the tailed beast, but we will also die in it." Onoki’s hands.”

Because Kirigakure and Iwagakure are not adjacent to each other, during the first three ninja wars, the two villages had little chance of fighting.

But Kisame had heard of the name of the Sandaime Tsuchikage.

He has a blood inheritance that exceeds the limits of blood inheritance. He is also a rare flying ninja in the five major countries. He is a direct disciple of the first and second generation Tsuchikage. He is called the two equals - Onoki.

"The plan!!" Kakuzu groaned, looking up at the mountains in the distance, with a sharp edge in his eyes, "Don't worry, he will come out on his own initiative."

It was not until he saw Hei Jue yesterday that he knew one thing.

The organization's plan this time is very bold.

While the Kirigakure Village is focusing its attention here, they sneak over and catch all three of them together! !

Ye Cang, who was originally planning to capture the four-tailed beasts, did not hesitate at all after learning that the organization had decided to capture the three tailed beasts together. He turned around and headed straight to Kirigakure Village, preparing to meet up with Konan and leaving the two tailed beasts in Iwagakure Village. them.

Iwagakure Village.

As the only village built in the ninja world surrounded by high mountains, Iwagakure Village has extremely strong defenses. It is difficult for enemies to break into its interior, and even if they do, it is difficult to leave.

In order to prevent the younger generations of Iwagakure Village from becoming dependent on the terrain, the Nidaime Tsuchikage followed the example of the Nidaime Hokage and established a ninja school in order to ensure the inheritance of will.

at this time.

In a building with a triangular top.

"Old stubborn!"

"What do you mean by being stubborn? I mean by being experienced, I eat more salt than you eat rice."

"Won't you grow taller if you eat too much salt?"

"Fart, as I get older, it gradually condenses into essence."

Hearing the quarrel that broke out inside, the two Iwa ninjas guarding the door looked at each other, with a look of helplessness on their faces.

Recently.

Tsuchikage-sama and Laozi-sama quarrel every day, and their quarrels have increased many times more frequently than before.

Bang!

The ajar office door was suddenly slammed shut. Lao Zi came out and took a deep breath. Then he nodded to the two people standing at the door and disappeared in an instant.

The next second.

Lao Zi appeared directly on the busy street.

He breathed in the fresh air from the outside world, and his irritated mood due to the quarrel was instantly relieved.

Looking back at the Tsuchikage Building behind him, Lao Zi took another breath and said angrily, "You are really stubborn. You are so stubborn and hesitant in doing things. You actually still use the same method of governing the village decades ago."

"It doesn't make sense!! It doesn't make sense at all!!"

After shaking his head irritably, Lao Zi walked around the village a few more times and found that the village was not exactly the same as when he was a child, at least it had not changed much.

All other villages are changing, but Iwagakure Village has not changed at all.

In the past, he didn't think much of this scene. Occasionally, he still missed interesting things from his childhood.

But after he found out that the agent Mizukage of Kirigakure Village was a young man, his mood suddenly became not so wonderful.

"Kirikakure - Terumi Mei, Kumogakure - Ai, Sand Hidden Village - Rasa, Konoha Village - Tsunade," Lao Zi crossed his arms and walked on the street with a gloomy face, feeling in his heart Said somewhat irritably.

"Just because this old stubborn man still holds the idea that his descendants will be ineffective every day, and occupies that position, the other great ninja villages have replaced them with young people at the same time, and they have reformed the shortcomings in the village.

The stubborn old man still thinks that he can balance the forces of various factions. If someone else comes up, Yanyin Village will directly ascend to the sky."

Regarding Ohnoki's concerns, Lao Zi said that he could understand it, but did not agree with it.

Young people always have to exercise and experience setbacks.

Things like wrists are not something you are born with.

"Fried cake, fried cake!"

“Fresh bean paste!”

"River crabs, snails, river shrimps!"

"."

Vendors selling snacks, fruits, and seafood on both sides of the street shouted loudly to greet passers-by who were in a hurry.

Although the permanent population of Iwagakure is much smaller than that of Konoha, there are not many pedestrians on the streets.

Here, some will stop and carefully compare the products sold by the merchants; some will pick up the products without looking at the price and directly state their psychological price; some will greet the merchants warmly, without even looking at the price. He waved his hand patiently.

Lao Zi smelled the various scents in the air and looked at the passers-by buying things. His vision suddenly became dazed, and the scene in front of him suddenly changed into a different look.

On both sides of the dilapidated streets, there are no longer hawking vendors, but instead a group of people sitting in ragged clothes, with complexions sallow due to malnutrition.

Their eyes were full of despair, and they sat on the ground with numb expressions, neither making any noise nor making any noise, as if they had lost hope for the future.

Until someone passed by them, those people stretched out their hands mechanically, begging for some food to satisfy their hunger.

The dull and dull eyes looked at Lao Zi, and his heart tingled. He shook his head suddenly, bringing his thoughts back to reality, and the scene in front of him once again became that prosperous look.

"According to that stubborn management method, Iwagakure Village will become like this sooner or later." Lao Zi turned around, looked at the Tsuchikage Building behind him with some worry, then clenched his fists again and said in despair.

"If you think our village is not good, just build it instead of having thoughts of longing for Konoha."

At this time, a scolding sound passed through the air.

Lao Zi raised his head and saw a vendor pointing at a passerby and said angrily, "If you think the Tsuchikage is not doing well, then you should work hard to become a Tsuchikage instead of pointing fingers behind people's backs and speaking ill of people. "

"If you feel that the "Will of Stone" is not as good as the "Will of Fire" of Konoha, then you should enrich it and make it an existence that surpasses the Will of Fire."

"If you feel that the people around you are ignorant, then learn from you and change the people around you, instead of complaining, abusing, and running away here."

"The place where you are standing now is the village where you were born and raised. How you are, the village will be like."

Lao Zi's heart suddenly shook, and the fog that originally shrouded his heart instantly dissipated.

before

He had no idea of ​​being a Tsuchikage, let alone governing the village.

I just feel that the direction of the village's development is wrong, and I want to change something, but that old guy Onoki always finds various excuses to maintain the status quo.

But now.

Lao Zi turned around, walked slowly to the middle-aged man, and sincerely asked for advice, "I have the idea of ​​​​changing the village, but I don't want to become a Tsuchikage."

"Master Lao Zi!" Before he could finish speaking, the middle-aged man took a step back suddenly, feeling a little at a loss.

"Don't be nervous!" Lao Zi waved to him kindly and said with a smile, "I just feel that what you just said makes sense. I want to ask what the first step is."

"Ah! Ah!"

The middle-aged man nervously grabbed the corner of his clothes and stammered, "The first step. The first step is to go out for a walk?"

"Why?" Lao Zi asked confused.

"Actually, I don't know how to take the first step." The middle-aged man scratched his head in embarrassment and said awkwardly, "It's just that I see Master Lao Zi looking depressed recently, and I often hear that you and Master Tsuchikage are having sex. quarrel.

Arguing consumes most of the energy every day, leaving much less energy for thinking. "

Hearing this, Lao Zi nodded thoughtfully.

The recent quarrel between him and Ohnoki really gave him a headache.

Every day when I open my eyes and see that there is no change in the village, I can't help but want to quarrel with Ohnoki. After the quarrel, I feel even worse. It's such a vicious cycle that I don't have time to think seriously.

After the figure of the four-tailed Jinchuuriki completely disappeared, the middle-aged man slowly raised his head, a sharp edge flashed in his eyes, and spoke slowly in a voice that he could only hear.

"If you think the Akatsuki organization is not good, then you go and build it; if you feel that the Akatsuki organization is wrong to capture tailed beasts, you join the organization to change it; if"

"Tsk, I don't know where Jue got such a sneaky concept. He also arranged for dozens of white Zetsu to shout loudly in places where Lao Zi often passes by."

"Does it really work?"

Lao Zi used practical actions to prove that this thing is really useful.

What he said today shocked him so much that he started packing his luggage after returning home. Then he left a letter and left the village at night.

The moment he stood on the wall of Iwagakure Village and looked at the mountains hidden in the darkness, his original anxious mood was instantly relieved, and his rigid thinking became active.

Looking back at the sleeping village, Lao Zi's eyes immediately fell on the Tsuchikage Building and whispered.

"Old stubborn, try to live a few more years and see if I can use practical actions to change the village."

As soon as he finished speaking, the black shadow on the wall instantly disappeared into the night without attracting the slightest attention.

To outsiders, Iwagakure Village is typically easy to defend and difficult to attack, but for the ninjas in the village, especially the powerful ninjas, it is very simple to leave the village without attracting any attention. matter.

Especially for people like Lao Zi who often leave the village, it is as simple as eating and drinking.

"Where should we go next?" Lao Zi tapped his feet lightly on the rock wall, and instantly ran forward dozens of meters. The sound of the wind whistling in his ears did not affect his thinking at all.

Although he had no idea where to go next, he would definitely not go to the Kingdom of Wind.

No matter how miserable Iwagakure Village is, it cannot be as miserable as Sunagakure Village.

It seems that Sunagakure Village is about to break away from the sequence of the five great ninja villages.

"Um?"

Lao Zi put his feet together and suddenly stopped in place, and his thoughts returned to reality.

He squinted his eyes and observed the surroundings secretly under the bright moonlight. Finally, his eyes fell on the boulder in front of him and said in a deep voice, "No need to hide, come out!"

Ta-ta-ta!

Suddenly there was a sound of heavy footsteps in the silent night, and two tall men wearing auspicious cloud robes slowly appeared from behind the boulder.

After searching in his memory for a while, Lao Zi found no memory about these two people, but looking at the unkind look on the other party's face, he knew that he might not be able to have a good rest tonight.

"What a terrifying intelligence ability!" Kisame looked at the four-tailed Jinchuuriki across from him and couldn't help but sigh, "You can actually tell the time when the opponent left the village accurately, and you can also track his movements."

Although Kakuzu didn't speak, he had the same thought in his heart.

The reason why he joined the Akatsuki organization in the first place, apart from never fighting Nagato, was because they had a terrible intelligence ability and could actually track his hiding place.

at this time.

The dark clouds in the sky moved faster, blocking the moonlight, and the earth fell into darkness at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Phew~

A breeze would blow from time to time in the mountains at night, making the clothes of the three of them rustle.

Lao Zi clenched his hands into fists and prepared for battle. He stared at the two men and asked in a deep voice.

"Who are you?"

Kisame took a few steps forward, exposed a pair of sharp teeth, and answered.

"dawn!!"

As soon as he finished speaking, before Lao Zi could figure out what "Xiao" meant, his pupils shrank suddenly and he found that the man who was just ten meters away from him appeared in front of him in an instant, raised his leg and kicked him directly.

Bang!

After kicking the ball into the air, Kisame disappeared again, and at the same time a mark formed on his hand, chakra instantly gathered at his throat, and appeared directly above Lao Zi.

Water Release·Shark Bullet Technique!

At this moment, the moisture in the air condensed into the shape of a shark, opened its huge mouth, and bit Lao Zi's body directly. After making a deafening roar, it instantly changed direction and took him to the ground in an instant.

"It really hurts!"

Lao Zi also reacted at this time, clenched his fist, and punched the shark hard. There was a muffled sound, and Lao Zi's huge fist penetrated directly through the shark's body, and the chakra in his body was The speed is visible to the naked eye.

"Immune to physical attacks? Absorb chakra?" After instantly analyzing the effect of the ninjutsu, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the chakra in his body boiled instantly. Countless lava emerged on the surface of his body, and finally completely enveloped Lao Zi.

Melting Chakra Mode! !

The next second.

The shark took Lao Zi and slammed into the earth from high altitude, knocking a deep depression into the rocky ground and eventually forming a puddle several meters in diameter.

puff!

Lao Zi's whole body was covered with lava, and he jumped out of the puddle. His body turned into an afterimage, and he escaped from the puddle in an instant.

With the defensive power given by the lava armor, the blow just now did not cause him too serious injuries, but the strong shock wave penetrated the armor, causing blood to flow from the corners of his mouth.

"Melt Escape."

Lao Zi on the ground was suddenly surprised. He raised his chest and bulged his mouth like a frog. He pointed in the direction of the water ninja and roared, "Lava bomb!"

Bang!

A bolt of lava glowing with crimson fire erupted from his mouth at an extremely high speed and headed straight for Kisame.

Kisame's pupils shrank, and on one side of his body subconsciously, he saw the air-distorted lava brushing against his cheek, hitting the hard rock ground behind him, instantly punching a deep hole in the ground.

"Ha~"

Kisame looked back at the dark hole, and his expression became serious, "Terumi Mei-sama's melt escape seems not as strong as this person's."

Bang!

Another blast of lava came.

Hearing the sound, Kisame stepped on the ground with his right foot and jumped directly into the air. At the moment of avoiding the lava, he quickly formed seals with his hands, and a quarter of the terrifying chakra in his body disappeared in an instant.

Water Escape·Big Waterfall Waves!

He opened his mouth wide and spat out a lake-sized amount of water towards the ground.

In an instant, all nearby rocks were submerged in water, and the dry land suddenly turned into a vast ocean.

"What a huge chakra!" Kakuzu stood on the water, his body moving up and down with the waves. He looked at the endless lake in front of him, his expression became serious.

This man looks like a tailed beast.

"Water escape?"

Lao Zi's face was also a little ugly at this time.

When fighting a water-style ninja, try to stay away from water sources. This is common sense for all ninjas, but now, he saw a water-style ninja who created a favorable terrain like a lake.

Pah pah pah!

Looking at the man running on the water, Lao Zi moved his feet, first smashed the water dragon rising from the water with a punch, then stepped on the water with both feet, retracted his fists, and shot directly at Kisame.

"Lend me chakra!"

As he roared in his heart, a deep red tail slowly grew out from behind.

"This old guy!" Feeling the other party's chakra surge again, Kisame grinned slightly, "It's quite perverted, chakra can still surge."

At the moment when Lao Zi was about to come close, Kisame quickly raised his arm to block his chest and took the other party's punch.

Boom! !

The deafening roar sounded again.

The moment the fist hit his arm, Kisame was blasted out, and after rolling on the water for several times, he finally stood up.

"Water escape." Kisame, who finally completed the last seal, slowly raised his head and looked at Lao Zi with a bit of ferocity, "Hey, look behind."

Hearing this, Lao Zi was stunned for a moment, and then he seemed to notice something, his pupils shrank to the size of a needle tip, and turned around suddenly, and saw two thick lightning bolts flying rapidly along the air.

Sensing the violent breath attached to the lightning, he just wanted to dodge it instantly, and then a low voice sounded in his ears again.

"Water escape·Water prison technique!"

Countless water flows instantly formed a spherical cage, completely blocking Lao Zi's escape space.

"Ah~"

The next second.

A shrill wail suddenly came from the silent night sky, but it was soon drowned by the huge roar of thunder and lightning.

A half-black and half-white pitcher plant emerged from the ground at this time.

It looked at the four-tailed Jinchuriki who was being strangled and lifted into the air below, and shook its head subconsciously, "Ze, the four-tailed Jinchuriki seems to be a little blind!"

Black Zetsu turned his eyes slightly, glanced at the unconscious four-tailed Jinchuriki, and then looked at the white Zetsu body who had just spoken, with a bit of confusion on his face.

"If he is not blind." The white Zetsu body spread his hands and said casually, "He dared to show his back even though he couldn't recognize such a legendary ninja like Kakuzu."

Black Zetsu was silent for a while, his eyes fell on Kakuzu, and he replied in a muffled voice, "I don't know if he is blind or not, but if you go out with your face covered at night, no one will recognize who you are."

White Zetsu body thought about his appearance after covering his face, and after a moment of stunned, he immediately changed the subject and said, "Ze, the five-tailed Jinchuriki who is on a mission should be on his way after sensing the movement here?"

"He will definitely come!" Black Zetsu nodded lightly and affirmed.

The two Jinchuriki of the Hidden Rock Village usually have to perform some tasks, and they will not stay in the village blindly.

The Five-Tails Jinchuriki was on a mission nearby.

If he sensed the Tailed Beast Chakra erupting here, he would definitely come over.

As for whether he could defeat them.

Thinking of this, Black Zetsu looked down at the two men below, his face showing a thoughtful expression.

"If he can't defeat them, should he go over and try?"
