Chapter 193: Kakashi’s Shocking Discovery… Or Is It?

"You think too much of my strength." Funan shook his head and said, "It's not that my pupil technique is so powerful, but Nagato is too careless. My clone has been preparing since he came into contact with him. The effect is naturally better. In addition, those eyes do not belong to him. Although he has nurtured them for decades, they still cannot fit perfectly. That line is the most fatal flaw!"

Konan still shook her head. She was not stupid. "This still cannot hide your strength."

"By the way, who is the person behind the masked man?"

Funan looked at Konan and said with a smile: "Today's free chapter has ended. Next, it is a paid chapter."

Konan rolled her eyes in anger, but she also knew that it was impossible to ask more from Funan.

That was probably the reason Nagato decided to leave; he knew Funan wouldn't say anything else.

"Ah!"

Konan sighed faintly and was very worried about Nagato.

"Don't worry!" Funan said bluntly: "Even though there are traps hidden in his body, Nagato has had the Rinnegan for decades and is now prepared. It won't be easy to defeat him."

Now that Nagato is prepared, Funan really wants to know what Black Zetsu and Obito are going to do.

And what will Nagato do?

Will he rush over and kill Obito directly?

Funan thought with interest.

If he really did that, then Black Zetsu would have to launch the attack in advance and revive Uchiha Madara.

Oh, if that's the case, then I have to be prepared.

Whether it's Madara who was reincarnated by the Impure World Reincarnation or Madara without eyes, it's not easy to deal with!

"Funan!" Konan suddenly looked at Funan with a serious expression and said: "I want to ask you for something."

"As long as it doesn't have to do with another man, say it."

"Stop joking!" Konan said angrily: "You know what I want to say!"

She said seriously: "Although I don't know why you like to say half and keep the other half, I hope you can ensure Nagato's safety as much as possible, okay?"

Funan looked Konan up and down, deliberately showing an evil expression, and said: "Then it depends on how you perform tonight."

Konan glared at Funan but felt relieved.

If nothing else, Nagato's life was saved.

To her, as long as he survived, it didn't matter if he lost the Rinnegan.

…

Kakashi walked through the streets with a gloomy face.

He can feel that Konoha, which has finally stabilized for a while, is going to have trouble again.

Moreover, this time it is likely to affect the entire shinobi world.

Perhaps, the Fourth Shinobi World War is about to break out.

The tailed beasts had disappeared.

It's Akatsuki's doing!

And Funan was also part of Akatsuki.

Would Hiruzen pass up this opportunity to attack the Uchiha clan?

Since Funan took over as Hokage, the opportunities for the Third Hokage and the others had become fewer, and Funan kept pressuring them, narrowing their room to maneuver.

And in the shadows, there was Danzo.

Although Funan had made immediate changes after Danzo's betrayal, modifying the village's military codes and strategies, it was not possible to eliminate all the influence that Danzo had woven over decades.

He is like a poisonous snake hidden in the dark, ready to bite Konoha fiercely at any time.

Konoha was so powerful before that he had no chance.

Now, with so many things happening, everything has become different.

And yet, that Funan guy was still so carefree!

It was maddening.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, a feeling of being watched ran through Kakashi.

He looked discreetly to the side, and all he saw was a silhouette with its back turned.

But when he looked at that silhouette he felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

Kakashi froze, his breathing became labored, and his body began to tremble slightly.

Obito!

Is he Obito?

Kakashi lost control of his emotions and ran after the figure.

He wanted to catch up with him, he wanted to see if he was Obito!

But, every time he was about to get close enough, the figure always showed him only his back.

Kakashi did not give up.

Although deep down he felt that something was not right, he continued running after the figure.

There are always some things in life that are more important than life.

Finally, the figure stopped.

The place was completely deserted.

The two were now in a remote corner of Konoha.

Kakashi stared at him silently and said: "You deliberately led me here, who are you?"

The figure slowly turned its head, revealing a face that made Kakashi's world fall apart.

"Obito... Obito..."

Kakashi almost collapsed. He subconsciously walked towards the other party.

[Bang!]

A muffled sound came.

Kakashi fell to the ground.

"Tsk!"

Black Zetsu laughed in a low voice and said: "Obito, this guy is Hatake Kakashi? The famous copy ninja of Konoha? How come he fell all of a sudden? He is so weak."

Obito glanced at Black Zetsu coldly.

Black Zetsu immediately shut his mouth.

Before rescuing his mother, he was everyone's little brother.

…Mom, for you, I have endured humiliation for another day!

Obito stared coldly at Kakashi who was lying on the ground.

In fact, he didn't know why he didn't want to take back the Sharingan on Kakashi's body and kept dragging it on until now.

Maybe, he didn't want to see Kakashi.

Or maybe... he preferred to hold on to that moment when they both fought together.

Maybe...

He remembered what he had said to Kakashi and Rin when he gave them his eye.

Obito shook his head.

What's the point of thinking about these things.

He had already made up his mind. There was no turning back.

He quickly moved forward and, without hesitation, pulled Kakashi's eye out of its socket. After staring at him for a long moment, Obito disappeared in a distortion.

"Hehe!"

A low laugh sounded.

White Zetsu crawled out from underground.

"It seems that Obito still retains some humanity."

Black Zetsu sneered and said: "What's the point? Does he still have any humanity left at this point? Does he want to die before his time?"

"If he retains humanity, will others show mercy to him?"

White Zetsu said: "Obito himself is full of instability."

Black Zetsu said coldly: "I know, but don't worry. If there is an uncontrollable accident, then resurrect Uchiha Madara!"

White Zetsu laughed and said: "As long as Uchiha Madara is resurrected, everything will not be a problem. That guy..."

"Okay!"

Black Zetsu interrupted White Zetsu and said coldly: "You talk too much. You should go out less in the future. It's best not to go out. If there is something wrong, your clone can solve it. The main body should focus on safety."

"Okay!" White Zetsu shrugged and slowly crawled into the ground.

Black Zetsu stared at the place where Obito disappeared, and did not speak for a long time.

In fact, the real problem is still Uchiha Funan!

That Uchiha is too difficult to deal with.

The most troublesome thing is that he seems to know a lot of things.

How does he know?

Black Zetsu still hasn't figured it out.

…

The Land of Water.

On the edge of a large lake shrouded in fog, two figures, one tall and one short, are walking slowly.

"Are you sure it's here?"

A hoarse and impatient voice sounded.

"Of course!"

Deidara chuckled and said: "This is the largest lake in the region. Plus, we're deep into the Land of Water. The Mizukage has never given up on the Three-Tails. Once she discovered its whereabouts, she decided not to bother it, waiting for the right moment to find the perfect Jinchuriki. It's even rumored that the Mizukage considered becoming a Jinchuriki herself, though she was stopped by some old men in the village."

"It doesn't matter!"

Sasori interrupted Deidara with an impatient voice and said: "Let's get down to business! I'm sick of waiting. Make it quick!"

Deidara shrugged and made seals with his hands.

[Bang!]

A giant white bird appeared.

A macabre smile appeared on Deidara's face as he muttered: "Now, it's time to show my art of explosion. That instant sublimation is so beautiful, hahaha!"

The giant bird flapped its wings and soared into the sky.

"Tsk!"

Sasori snorted behind him.

Art?

How could that kind of explosion be art.

Art needs eternity!

Only eternal existence is art in the true sense.

From above, Deidara looked down upon the lake and, using his hand's mouth, spat out large quantities of white clay.

The clay transformed into fish that quickly submerged themselves in the water.

With his eyes closed, Deidara concentrated.

It wasn't long before a mischievous smile appeared on his lips.

"Found you!"

"Ha!"

[Boom! Boom! Boom!]

A series of explosions shook the lake. Giant waves rose up, raised by the impact of the explosions.

Sasori, standing on the shore, snorted in dissatisfaction, and left the place in an instant.

When he appeared again, he was far away from the lake.

"Explode!"

Deidara threw down a large amount of detonating clay again.

The lake became chaos.

Finally, a huge creature emerged from the depths, floating unconscious.

Three-tails!

However, the Three-Tails was already completely unconscious from the explosions.

"Too easy!"

Deidara moved his arms and sneered. "If all the tailed beasts were so easy, it would be great."

"Are you dreaming?"

Sasori's disdainful voice sounded.

He appeared beside Deidara and said coldly: "The reason why the three-tail is so easy to deal with is that he has just been resurrected and his strength has not yet recovered. Moreover, he is in a chaotic state. If it is a Jinchūriki or a tailed beast in its peak state..."

"Alright, alright! Uncle Sasori, I know everything you want to say, let's go!"

Deidara interrupted Sasori impatiently.

He summoned several explosive clay creatures, and with some ropes, he wrapped the Three-Tails, securing it to drag it.

Sasori's face darkened as a tail coated in purple liquid waved dangerously behind him.

"What?"

Deidara immediately sensed it, turned his head and looked at Sasori. "You wanna fight? Go ahead! I've always wanted to see your 'eternal art' in action."

Both artists shared a common language, but that didn't mean they got along.

"Hmph!" Sasori snorted coldly, glanced to the side, and slowly retracted his tail.

"Tsk, so boring!" Deidara looked disdainful and turned to the side.

In the bushes close to the lake, two ANBU wearing strange masks were staring at this side nervously.

"What should we do?"

"Three-Tails, was captured alive?"

"We must inform the Mizukage-sama immediately!"

The two Anbu's voices were very small.

"Do you think art is a momentary bloom or an eternal existence?"

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded beside them.

"Be careful!"

"We've been discovered!"

Both ANBU tried to escape in opposite directions.

But as they fled, two small white spiders jumped onto their shoulders.

Deidara looked at the two and smiled playfully. "Don't answer me? Then you can die!"

[Boom! Boom!]

Two explosions erupted, and the ANBU's bodies were torn to pieces.

Deidara looked at the fragments of the two bodies and said coldly: "Just to relieve my boredom!"

Deidara was in a good mood after easily solving the two ANBU.

He has become stronger again!

ANBU are the elites of each shinobi village.

In the past, it was definitely not so easy for him to solve the two ANBU.

"Hey, Brother Sasori!" Deidara looked at Sasori and suddenly asked: "What do you think about me challenging Uchiha Funan now?"

Sasori looked at him as if he were an idiot.

"You just dealt with two ANBU?"

"Yes!"

"Are you sure?"

Deidara was confused. "Are you sure? Why do you ask?"

"Seeing how confident you are, and wanting to challenge Uchiha Funan, I thought you just dealt with two Mizukage instead of ANBU!"

Deidara was speechless.

Sasori was rarely patient, and said earnestly: "Kid, I know you have always been dissatisfied with Uchiha Funan and have always wanted to challenge him. In that battle, you were indeed suppressed by him a little bit, but don't forget that you are growing up. Could it be that Uchiha Funan is waiting for you there?"

"He is also young, and his strength is also in the explosive period!"

"And even if his power had stagnated these years, do you think you, now, could face him as he was a few years ago?"

Deidara's eyebrows twitched.

Sasori said very confidently: "You are no match for Funan now, not to mention that according to intelligence, Funan's strength has improved very quickly in recent years."

"Did you not see the battle between Funan and Pain?"

"To be frank, the other party is not on the same level as you."

Deidara said unhappily: "And you, uncle Sasori...? Why don't you help me get revenge? Your power is surely at their level."

Sasori was very upset.

He was obviously trying to persuade the other party with good intentions...

Humph!

That's why he hates brats!
