Chapter 572 Tsuchigumo Clan

"Itachi, is there a problem?" Pain asked.

"No, I understand." Itachi said softly.

"Good, disperse."

After Pain said that, his phantom disappeared and Konan's phantom also disappeared along with his.

Obito glanced at Itachi with deep meaning, and then disappeared.

Itachi looked at the Gedō Mazō, and then jumped down with Kisame.

The Gedō Mazō slowly sank into the ground and disappeared.

Kisame opened his mouth and complained: "Sealing Bijū is really tiring."

"Kisame, let's find a place to take a break."

When Itachi finished talking, he left without waiting for Kisame's answer.

After getting out of the cave, a crow fell into Itachi's view, and the scarlet Sharingan seemed to be conveying something.

Kisame came out of the cave at this time.

"Itachi-san, what's wrong?"

"Let's go."

Itachi leads the way, but the message from the previous crow is echoing in his mind.

'Kakashi-senpai is asking me to go back?'

Itachi thought for a moment, but decided to refuse.

It was not the time yet. Itachi decided to continue spying.

Whether it is Pain or Obito, they seemed to be extremely dangerous in Itachi's view.

After finding a time when Kisame was not paying attention, Itachi used the crow to give Kakashi his reply.

In Konoha Hospital, Kakashi looked at the crow in front of him.

"Itachi seems to be planning to figure out Obito's plan. But the danger doing that is great." Kakashi murmured.

He does indeed need someone as an internal spy in the Akatsuki, but in Kakashi's view, Itachi is no longer safe at this time.

Obito is not a fool. Danzo is now dead, and it is estimated that Shisui's matter will not be kept hidden for long.

Itachi's identity as a missing-nin is not likely to deceive Obito for long.

If Obito really take action against Itachi, the result will be really hard to say.

'Forget it. If Itachi is really determined, I should just let him take care of it. With his ability, the Obito right now should not be able to get him.'

Kakashi made a decision in his heart and did not continue to worry about Itachi.

He is not a babysitter, and is not responsible for these people's affairs every day.

With Itachi's ability, Kakashi believes that there will be no major problems.

Compared to the surging wind here, another big event happened on the other side.

Kirigakure's Rokubi's Jinchūriki defected!

At this time, Mei is sending Anbu to hunt him down.

The Rokubi is now the only Kirigakure's Bijū, and Mei naturally won't give it up easily.

Konoha, Hokage Office.

"Tsunade-sama, there is an urgent message. Please check it out." Shizune hurriedly ran in with a scroll on her hand.

Tsunade was puzzled, and opened the scroll.

After she finished reading it, Tsunade frowned.

"What's wrong, Tsunade-sama?" Shizune asked in confusion.

"Something happened to the Tsuchigumo Clan."

"The Tsuchigumo Clan?"

"The Tsuchigumo Clan is a special group of Shinobi. They have passed down a secret technique from generation to generation that can gather natural forces to launch an offensive attack. Using themselves as the core, it can create an explosion with radius of hundreds of kilometers."

"That terrifying?" Shizune was surprised.

Tsunade nodded and said: "Yes, during the Third Shinobi World War, Sandaime discussed with the leader of the Tsuchigumo Clan, and made this secret technique a forbidden technique, so that they would never use it again. As a condition, when the Tsuchigumo Clan is in danger, Konoha provide free assistance."

"So it's like that." Shizune said.

Tsunade pondered for a moment, and said, "Shizune, summon Tenzō, Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura."

"Yes, Tsunade-sama!"

When Shizune heard this, she set off immediately.

Tsunade looked at the scroll in front of him, bit her lip, and whispered: "It's a troubling time."

It didn't take long before Yamato came to the Hokage Office.

"Hokage-sama." Yamato said respectfully.

"Yamato, Kakashi has told you before, right? You will replace Kakashi as the captain of Team 7 for the time being. I need you to lead Team 7 for the mission this time."

"I understand." Yamato nodded.

At this moment, Naruto and the other two arrived at the door.

Naruto pushed open the door unceremoniously.

"Tsunade baa-chan, do you really have an S-rank mission for us?" Naruto asked excitedly.

"Naruto, You must knock on the door before entering the Hokage Office. Why do you never remember?" Sakura complained.

"It's okay. Tsunade baa-chan doesn't mind."

Tsunade glanced at Naruto and thought, 'This guy's personality really resembles Jiraiya when he was a child.'

"Okay, stop arguing and come here," Tsunade said.

When Naruto heard this, he walked over.

Sakura and Sasuke also followed closely from behind.

"Who is this guy Tsunade baa-chan?" Naruto asked as he pointed at Yamato.

"Hello, I am Yamato, Kakashi-senpai's subordinate. This time, I am here to replace Kakashi-senpai as your temporary captain." Yamato explained.

"Ah? Are you the person that Kakashi-sensei has said before?" Naruto asked in surprise.

Sakura and Sasuke were also somewhat surprised.

Sasuke looked up and down at Yamato and seemed to wonder if this person is really qualified to replace Kakashi.

"Okay, you can do things on your own way for the team's affairs. Yamato will explain the situation of the mission. You can set off now," Tsunade said.

"Huh? So hurriedly," Naruto said.

"It is an emergency mission."

"Okay! It's time for me to show off."

Looking at Naruto, Tsunade smiled.

The Land of Rain.

Nagato was half lying on the bed with black pipes all over his body.

Konan pushed the door open, and looked at Nagato on the bed with a trace of darkness flashed in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

"Konan? Is there anything wrong?" Nagato asked in soft voice.

"Nagato, it seems that there is someone inquiring about the village's information recently."

"Oh? Has anyone found out who it is?"

Konan shook her head and said: "The other party seems to have a strong infiltration skill, and no useful information has been found yet."

"Is that so? It doesn't matter. Outside the village, he won't get any useful information. And if he enters the village, I will know his movements as soon as possible. Don't worry."

"Yes."

Konan replied, and no longer speaking, but it seemed that she had something to say.

"Konan, is there anything else?"

"Nagato, is everything we are doing right now a good thing? Yahiko's original ideal was not supposed to be achieved in this way."

Hearing this, Nagato's pupils shrank. He then looked at Konan and said: "Konan, as long as the peace mentioned by Yahiko can be achieved, it doesn't matter how we do it."

"But..."

"No but. According to Madara-san, as long as we gather all of the nine Bijū, we will be able to create Yahiko's dream of peaceful world!"
