Chapter 7 Joined Obito, Itachi And Konoha's High-Level Responses

Not long after, Chiba quietly appeared in front of an abandoned building in the jungle.

He looked at the figure standing in front of the building with some surprise.

Pale neck, weird one-eyed mask, black clothes.

It is Uchiha Obito.

He appeared in front of him so easily.

Chiba was full of surprise, frowned and asked Obito:

"Who are you? Was it you who spied on the Uchiha earlier?"

Obito looked a little surprised at the sudden appearance of Chiba but quickly calmed down, and said with an inscrutable look:

"Interesting, I didn't expect someone other than Itachi to find me."

Obito directly admitted that even he knew about Chiba.

Because Kakashi has followed people, he has also followed.

Then he said hoarsely:

"I am Uchiha Madara!"

"It's impossible! Madara is dead!"

Chiba's complexion changed drastically, and then he retorted.

"It was only my double who died at the hands of the First Hokage. The real me survived, and I have lived to this day."

Obito calmly explained.

There are too many loopholes in this statement, and Chiba doesn't want to complain.

He frowned as if he didn't believe it, and said in a deep voice:

"Well, it's none of my business whether you're Madara or not, but why are you spying on the Uchiha clan?"

"What conspiracy do you have?!"

Obito glanced at him calmly and wrote lightly:

"Boy, you are not qualified to ask about my affairs."

Chiba looked slightly cold and then directly activated his Sharingan, looked at Obito's shrinking pupils, and sneered:

"Is this enough to qualify?!"

Obito looked at Chiba in shock, unable to calm down.

Sharingan!

Someone besides Itachi has activated the Sharingan!

Then, looking at Chiba's appearance, Obito's eyes became weird.

Because Chiba has one eye with Mangekyō Sharingan and one eye with Sharingan, which is very awkward.

After a long time, Obito choked out a sentence:

"Boy, your Sharingan is unique!"

The corner of Chiba's mouth twitched, his face turned dark.

The obsession with the double Mangekyō Sharingan deepened in my heart.

Seeing Chiba's face, Obito couldn't help but laugh.

"Just this kind of nondescript Sharingan is not qualified to awe me, Uchiha Madara!"

"Let me show you the power of my Sharingan!"

"Kamui!"

Kamui was activated, and Obito suddenly disappeared from his place.

"Laughing? Laughing!"

"Time!"

Chiba was annoyed.

He directly used his Mangekyō Sharingan ability.

Various visions of the future suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

Not just one future, but many possibilities.

But one was enough.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

He saw Obito's next move.

Chiba swiftly turned sideways, pulled out a kunai, and lightly stabbed at the position where Obito was standing just a moment ago.

This guy seems to be willing to fight for it and can help him balance Itachi.

"Then I guess it's okay to tell you—I'm planning the Uchiha genocide," Obito revealed, fixing his gaze on Chiba, who appeared somewhat contemptuous.

Wary of being proven wrong again, Obito hurriedly continued, "Apart from me, Itachi is the one executing the plan. He has also awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan."

"And the senior management of Konoha will secretly assist us in ensuring the smooth progress of the plan!"

"And if that's not enough, I have formed a secret organization over the years with numerous Kage-level experts!"

Observing Chiba's serious expression, Obito's eyes gleamed with joy. He hastened to emphasize, "You're right, the Uchiha clan is hopeless."

"The Itachi they rely on is on my side. The rebellion cannot succeed!"

"Do you really want to go against the entire Konoha, as well as me and Itachi, for the sake of the Uchiha?"

Chiba furrowed his brow upon hearing this, appearing deeply concerned.

"Join us, Chiba!" Obito urged.

"With your strength, you could even unlock the full potential of your Mangekyō Sharingan in this operation!"

"Have you forgotten what happened to your parents? Is a Uchiha clan like that truly deserving of your protection?"

The argument seemed compelling.

Unconsciously, Chiba nodded, his gaze fixated on Obito in astonishment.

This bastard managed to make a comeback.

Feigning hesitation, Chiba spoke gravely, "Even if I join you, what happens after the clan is exterminated?"

Obito breathed a sigh of relief internally, feeling he had finally gained the upper hand. He smiled and replied, "After the genocide, I can recommend you and Itachi to join my organization. You won't be disappointed!"

Chiba looked at Obito with solemnity and nodded.

"Okay, I'll join you."

"But you need to explain the situation to Konoha's senior management. If they attack me, don't blame me if I lead others to eliminate them first!"

Obito nodded in delight. "Rest assured, the Third Hokage and Danzo know what they need to do!"

"I will inform you in advance before taking any action."

Chiba nodded, discussed the details with Obito, and left.

Naturally, he didn't put too much trust in Obito; relying on his own strength was the only certainty.

Thus, he returned to the police force and continued to enhance his abilities.

...

On the other side.

After Chiba's departure, Obito contemplated for a moment before disappearing from his current location.

He sought out Itachi and informed him of Chiba's decision to join.

"Chiba activated the Mangekyō Sharingan?" Itachi expressed surprise, realizing that he had failed to notice it when he encountered Chiba previously.

"Can't you eliminate him?"

Itachi quickly regained his composure, but a flicker of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Obito shook his head. "Chiba will be extremely cautious during this time, and his ocular ability seems to be a form of precognition. Killing him would be incredibly difficult."

Itachi's expression grew grim. Foresight abilities were troublesome, especially when the extent of their predictive range was unknown. Failure would put Sasuke in danger.

With this in mind, Itachi let out a sigh, realizing that taking unnecessary risks was not worth it. "I'll go and explain the situation to the Third Hokage."

...

Itachi made his way to the Hokage building and reported the matter to the Third Hokage.

The Third Hokage's face turned pale with shock. "What did you say?! Uchiha Chiba has awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan?!"

"How is that possible?"

His initial reaction was disbelief, followed by a suspicion that Itachi might be deceiving him. After all, Konoha had only seen a few instances of the Mangekyō Sharingan over its nearly 60-year history. It seemed unusual for them to appear so frequently now.

Shisui's death, Itachi awakening his own Mangekyō Sharingan, a man claiming to be Madara, and now Chiba's arrival—it was difficult to fathom.

Sensing the Third Hokage's doubt, Itachi remained composed and explained, "Although I haven't witnessed Chiba's Mangekyō Sharingan myself, the individual who claims to be Madara fought him and confirmed it."

Boom!

Danzo, who had been waiting outside, forcefully pushed the door open and entered the room, his face filled with gloom. "Hiruzen, we absolutely cannot allow Chiba to join the genocide plan. I don't trust him."

He cast a fearful glance at Itachi but chose to keep his thoughts to himself. With so many surviving strong Uchiha members, the significance of this genocide was questionable.
