Bait And Conflict

Two days ago.

Obito set off from Amegakure and crossed the Fire Country into the northern peninsula before finally arriving at Mountains' Graveyard.

Although he was prepared for the worst.

However, when he saw that there was only a huge pit with a diameter of a hundred meters and that it was burnt, he was still unable to hold himself back and became furious on the spot.

After that.

A raging fire of revenge burned in Obito's chest. He came to Konoha without stopping and vowed to launch the most violent revenge on Uchiha clan.

He wanted to make this clan completely disappear from the Ninja Realm.

Not a single one was left.

Of course, this did not include Obito himself. After all, he had long since stopped thinking that he was Uchiha person.

In the forest on the outskirts of Konoha.

At this time, Orochimaru had changed into a set of women's clothing. Every frown and smile was filled with a feminine air. She was completely a woman.

Sasori had long taken off the trench coat organized by Akatsuki and put on a white dress, looking like a beautiful young noble.

Orochimaru had suggested that the two of them could pretend to be mother and son.

However, Sasori believed that Orochimaru was deliberately taking advantage of him. Not only did he reject on the spot, but he also asked Orochimaru to act as his maid.

Finally.

The two of them chose a compromise and pretended to be a pair of siblings.

They easily avoided the investigation of the police department.

"Lord Madara, can you tell us now how you plan to destroy Konoha?"

Orochimaru smiled and looked at "Uchiha Madara" in front of him. He asked softly, and even his voice had completely turned into a woman.

When Obito heard this, he felt a chill in his heart, and his face under the mask frowned.

"Don't worry."

He glanced at the two of them and spoke indifferently. He gave them a mission. "First, get close to Uchiha clan, tie up a guy called Tobi, and bring him here to see me."

Before making a move.

Obito had to figure out exactly what Uchiha had done to Tobi to cause him to defect on the spot and join Uchiha's camp.

Hearing Obito's order.

Sasori crossed his arms and asked with dissatisfaction,

"Uchiha Madara, why don't you solve the matter between you and Uchiha? We are not tools for you to command."

In this regard, Obito responded coldly in a high and mighty manner,

"I am providing you with an opportunity to prove your strength. If you can't even do this kind of thing, then I can't rely on you for the series of plans behind the scenes."

In fact, this was just Obito's excuse.

What he was truly afraid of was that after he entered Konoha, he would be sensed by Kakashi using Sharingan like last time, and then his whereabouts would be exposed.

Behind Kakashi were Konoha Anbu, and the third generation Hokage.

Perhaps after the last time, the other side had already come up with a detailed battle plan and laid out an inescapable net.

They were just waiting for him to deliver himself to their doorstep.

Although Obito had Kamui by his side, perhaps it was due to his recent failures that his confidence had become somewhat lacking.

He no longer dared to be as arrogant as before and casually took risks.

Damn that Kakashi.

Obito cursed in his heart.

If that fellow ruined his good deeds again, he might have no choice but to take back his other Sharingan.

Orochimaru and Sasori looked at each other.

In the end.

They still listened to the orders of their superior, Obito. They left the woods and sneaked into Konoha again.

The land of Uchiha.

After a day of preparation.

Under the nervous gazes of the clansmen, Clan leader Fugaku entered the operating room with a serious face.

This operation was conducted by Tsunade as the chief surgeon. Shizune and several other medical Ninjas of Uchiha were assistants, anesthetics, and nursing staff.

For this operation.

The method Tsunade took was to transplant Hashirama's cells into Fugaku in batches to reduce the rejection reaction as much as possible.

Therefore.

The time taken for this operation would be greatly increased, and it would take more than ten hours to be optimistic, or even one or two days.

During this period.

In order to ensure that the operation process was not disturbed, Uchiha's entire clan entered a level one alert state and arranged a large number of elites around the operation room.

Not even a fly could fly in.

At this time.

Dan found Shisui.

"I heard that something happened in the village. A team from the police department was killed and their corpses were thrown into the forest," Dan said.

"Dan, I was about to discuss this with you."

"Do you think it was Obito or Akatsuki's people who did this?" Shisui said with a face full of concern.

Dan followed Shisui's words and frowned.

"If the other party finds out that Clan leader is undergoing Hashirama's cell transplant operation, those people will definitely come to cause trouble."

"Then what should we do?"

"We can't passively defend like we are now. We must take the initiative to attack and grasp the enemy's intelligence and movements." Suggested Dan.

"However, hundreds of people from the police department and Anbu were dispatched at the same time. They searched the village for several days but still failed to find Akatsuki's whereabouts. How are we going to do it?"

Shisui looked at Dan in confusion.

"Don't worry. Take Tobi out for a walk. Obito will definitely take the initiative to find you." Dan had long understood everything.

Shisui thought for a moment and understood.

If Obito was a big fish, then Tobi was the best bait.

As long as the bait was thrown out, the fish would not be able to resist the temptation and take the bait.

Thus.

In the evening, Shisui brought Tobi out of Uchiha's territory for the first time and came to Konoha's big street.

Tobi was like a curious baby, looking around all the way.

At this time,

Not only was he wearing Uchiha's high-collared robe, he was also wearing a mask that covered his entire body. Otherwise, with his pride, the rate of turning heads would definitely be 100%.

Even so.

Tobi quickly attracted the attention of many passers-by.

"Tobi, what are you doing?"

As Shisui walked, he suddenly found Tobi squatting on the side of the road, staring at the small alley next to him.

"Shisui, come and see, there is a dog in the alley."

Tobi pointed to a dog in the alley, clicking his tongue in wonder, and his words were full of envy.

Hearing this, Shisui pulled Tobi up with a black face.

This guy, even after being brainwashed by Kotoamatsukami, was still constantly thinking about the big game, which was really a headache.

Unexpectedly.

What made Shisui even more troubled was still behind.

Tobi was simply a vigorous and energetic bear child, and whenever it saw something fun and interesting, it would go up and join in.

Snatching children's toys, peeking at the female bathhouse through the window, climbing electric poles to touch wires, chasing other people's pet cats all over the street...

Everywhere he passed, chickens flew and dogs jumped.

Shisui couldn't even pull them, so he was so badly battered that he didn't even have time to apologize to the villagers.

Finally.

After a round of tossing and turning in the village and the sky was almost dark, Tobi finally calmed down.

Shisui wiped the sweat off his forehead and sat down on the long chair by the river, resting.

His gaze unconsciously looked in the direction of Hokage's building.

He was lost in thought.

The eyes that Shisui had once lost had returned.

If he went to look for Sandaime at this time, the old man would be pleasantly surprised and warmly welcome him back to Anbu.

However.

The current Shisui no longer wanted to meddle in the affairs between the family and the village.

He prayed in his heart that Uchiha and Konoha would be able to maintain the current peaceful situation.

Compared to worrying about these big matters.

Shisui suddenly felt that it was actually quite interesting for him to be Tobi's nanny and teach it how to conduct himself in the world.

Right.

He almost forgot about his business.

Did this move lead the snake out of the hole work?

Shisui quietly observed his surroundings, his gaze sweeping across the people on the shore and streets.

All of a sudden.

He saw that under the willow tree on the other side of the river stood a woman with fair skin and a beautiful red-haired youth with an expressionless face.

The two of them were staring at him.

The next second.

The woman smiled at Shisui. She actually extended a tongue that was a full thirty centimeters long from her mouth and hooked her hand at Shisui.

Her face was full of provocation.

Then, both the woman and the red-haired youth turned around and quickly walked out of Konoha Village.

It was strange.

Shisui frowned and immediately shouted at Tobi, who was fishing by the river, "Tobi, stop playing."

He realized that the other party was most likely one of Obito's subordinates, a member of Akatsuki's organization.

Thus.

Shisui brought Tobi along and directly stepped over Konoha's river, chasing after them.

As a result.

He hadn't walked far when a shout came from behind him.

"Uchiha Shisui, stop!"

A patrol team from the police department caught up from behind and surrounded Shisui and Tobi.

The leader was a Jonin, Hyuga Hoheto from the Hyuga clan.

The ten or so subordinates he led were all ninjas of Hyuga's clan. At this time, blue veins popped up on their faces. Pairs of Byakugan firmly locked onto the two of them.

"What's the matter?" Shisui blocked Tobi behind him and asked the other person in surprise.

Hyuga Hoheto stepped forward and raised a hand. He pointed at Tobi and asked in a deep voice,

"We received a lot of reports from the villagers saying that the person beside you is very suspicious. Who is he?"

"His name is Tobi. He is Uchiha's man. I think you have misunderstood."

Shisui quickly revealed a warm smile and explained to Hyuga's people. He did not want to make the atmosphere too tense.

However.

In the face of Shisui's friendliness, Hyuga Hoheto thought that this was a sign of his guilty conscience. He immediately sneered at Shisui,

"Do you think our Byakugan is just a decoration? The guy beside you clearly has a big problem."

Everyone knew.

Byakugan could easily see through the human body.

At this time, in the vision of Byakugan, Hyuga Hoheto and others, Tobi, who was next to Shisui, actually had no meridians, acupoints, bones, and even internal organs.

In addition, Tobi was wearing a mask, which made it even more suspicious.

Therefore.

Hyuga Hoheto not only asked Tobi to take off the mask immediately, but also ordered his subordinates to take out handcuffs and bring both Uchiha back to the police department for investigation.

In the face of Hyuga's aggressiveness.

"We didn't commit any crime. What right do you have to arrest people?" Shisui found it hard to understand, and the smile on his face disappeared.

Hearing this, Hyuga Hoheto snorted coldly,

"We are investigating the murder case of the police. Any suspicious people found in the village are obliged to cooperate with our investigation. Do you have any objections?"

As soon as this was said.

The crowd of Konoha who was watching the scene in the surroundings began to discuss.

"The wheel of fengshui is circulating. In the past, it was Uchiha's people who bullied others everywhere. Today, it is finally the opposite."

"I just want to treat Uchiha well and let these guys know that they are nothing after leaving the police department."

Seeing that Shisui was being bullied, the villagers all felt the resentment in their hearts and felt very comfortable.

They were all gloating and cheering for the police department.

Shisui's eyes gradually became cold.

He turned back to look. The woman and the red-haired youth from before had already disappeared at the end of the street and were about to leave his perception range.

There was no time to waste here.

Since he knew that the police department was deliberately targeting him, Shisui stopped being polite.

The next second.

He opened Mangekyo Sharingan, and looked at Hyuga Hoheto with his eyes. He said coldly,

"I have no intention of getting into a conflict with you. Please don't stop me and my companions."

Being stared at by Shisui, Hyuga Hoheto's face changed, and he subconsciously took a step back.

Shisui the Teleporter was Uchiha's top expert, and his reputation was like thunder in the ears.

But just as Hyuga Hoheto was hesitating, the subordinates behind him could not hold back and shouted one after another,

"Uchiha's people dare to resist the investigation of the police department, the crime is added!"

"Our police department is handling things, why do we need to explain so much to others?"

"Captain, don't talk nonsense with these two guys, just capture them and bring them back!"

In the eyes of Hyuga and the others, they were now openly enforcing the law, representing the will of the police department and even the entire Konoha - 200,000 villagers.

Would it be afraid that a mere Uchiha Shisui would not comply?

This was the confidence that power brought to people.

The surrounding Konoha villagers were even more indignant, requesting the police department to immediately arrest the arrogant Shisui.

At the moment.

Absolute superiority in name, public opinion, and numbers.

They were all occupied by the police department.

"Wow, is it going to fight? I like it the most."

Tobi reacted and immediately rolled up his sleeves to go all out with the people from the police department.

"Tobi, stay here obediently."

Shisui hurriedly stopped Tobi. If it made a move, all the people here would die, and then it would really be troublesome.

Then.

"Excuse me."

Shisui said these three words, but before he finished speaking, he quickly made a hand seal and activated the Phantom Body Flicker Technique.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.

In an instant.

Dozens of Shisui surrounded the dozen or so people of the police department and attacked them with lightning speed.

"Attack!"

Hyuga Hoheto shouted angrily.

Swoosh.

One of Shisui's clones rushed over and punched towards Hyuga Hoheto.

Fake.

With a sweep of his hand, Hyuga Hoheto's Byakugan saw that there was no chakra flowing in the other party's body, just an illusion.

He had just come up with this idea.

Shisui's true body instantly landed on the clone and punched Hyuga's abdomen, causing the latter to kneel on the spot due to the intense pain.

The same scene continued to play out.

In order to be in a hurry.

In this battle, not only did Shisui use the Illusion Body Flicker Technique, he also repeatedly used Mangekyo and Sharingan's Genjutsu, causing Hyuga clan member to fall one by one.

In less than a minute.

These more than a dozen of Hyuga Ninjas from the police department were all knocked down by Shisui and wailed on the ground.

Apart from the Illusion Body Flicker Technique, Shisui suddenly felt a sharp pain in his eyes, and his vision instantly blurred.

Just like Fugaku.

Because he frequently used Mangekyo, especially after he used Kotoamatsukami once, his eye power was greatly reduced, and there were already great side effects.

"Tobi, let's go."

Shisui put away Mangekyo, and without caring about the pain in his eyes, he quickly left with Tobi.

He continued to chase after Akatsuki.

After witnessing this battle, Konoha's villagers came back to their senses and began whispering to each other.

"Uchiha Shisui, this is... too exaggerated. One person took down more than a dozen Hyuga Ninjas. Is there no one in Hyuga's clan who can compete with him?"

"I didn't expect that after the police department changed hands, Uchiha's people were still lawless. Hyuga could do nothing to Uchiha."

"Although Uchiha's guys are annoying, his strength is still terrible, far more than Hyuga."

These words made the Hyuga clansmen on the ground feel even more humiliated.

"Damn it."

Hyuga Hoheto gritted his teeth and got up from the ground with an ugly expression.

This time, he had lost too much face.

He could already imagine that what had just happened would spread throughout the entire village overnight.

At that time.

Not only would they become targets of ridicule, but even the reputation and prestige of the entire Hyuga clan would be severely affected.

In fact.

Hyuga Hoheto also knows that the people who were killed in the police department before were most likely not caused by Uchiha.

Because the dead were all killed by hidden weapons and poisoning. After the investigation of Konoha's intelligence department, the murderer was likely to be a puppet master.

He only received the report from the villagers and planned to seize this opportunity to show his might in front of Uchiha's people.

The result was contrary to his wishes.

However.

This matter could not be settled just like that.

Not only did Uchiha Shisui refuses to cooperate with the investigation of the police department, but he also attacked the police officers. This kind of crime was enough to put him in prison.

Thinking of this.

"Let's go."

Hyuga Hoheto led his subordinates and left dejectedly, running back to the police department to complain.

In the night.

Shisui and Tobi left the village.

Where are Akatsuki's people?

Shisui frowned and swept his gaze across the forest in front of him. Suddenly, he saw an enchanting figure flash by and enter the depths of the forest.

He chased after her without hesitation.

He looked down from the sky.

Four figures, two in the front and two in the back, in the forest on the outskirts of Konoha, a chase scene played out.

It was not until they were more than ten kilometers away from Konoha that the person in front stopped.

This was an empty space in the forest.

Under the bright moonlight.

Orochimaru, Sasori, Shisui, and Tobi, the two sides were facing each other from a distance of seven to eight meters.

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect you to really dare to follow me. You are indeed bold and capable. Teleporter Shisui."

Orochimaru was the first to speak, smiling and praising Shisui.

"You are people from Akatsuki's organization, right? Are you the subordinates of Uchiha Madara?"

Shisui remained calm and tried to probe the other party.

According to what Tobi had said before, Obito had disguised himself as Uchiha Madara to join Akatsuki's organization. If these two people were sent by Obito, then it was very likely that Obito was also nearby.

When Orochimaru heard this, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Eh, you actually saw through our identities at a glance? However, since you know that we are Akatsuki's people, are you not afraid at all?"

Shisui shook his head.

He did not panic at all, because this was the plan he and Dan had made.

He knew.

Dan must be somewhere nearby at this time. The reason why he did not appear was because he did not want to alert the enemy.

As long as Obito appeared, Dan would definitely appear.

That was to say.

What Shisui needed to do was to defeat the two enemies in front of him and force Obito to appear.

Thinking of this.

He looked coldly at the two of them and instructed Tobi,

"Tobi, possess."
