Discussing this in detail might be a waste of time.
But if we don't discuss it in detail...
There's a possibility that there will be no results.
"I'm caught in a dilemma!"
Onoki shook his head repeatedly, feeling extremely frustrated and agitated.
"Lord Tsuchikage, if it really doesn't work out, I'll negotiate." Wen Ya volunteered, hoping to take the initiative himself. Wasn't every second count?
So, I'll do it, I'll take the lead, isn't that enough?
“Can you make the decision? I’m afraid Rasa won’t approve, so you shouldn’t get involved.” However, Onoki objected, saying that without his own involvement, he wouldn’t have much persuasive power.
But the problem now is that we don't have enough time, so this is a dilemma... Sigh, this is making Onoki's temper more and more irritable.
"Lord Tsuchikage, I need your authorization," Wenya said with a serious expression. "If necessary, I would also appreciate it if you could grant me the authority to act as you see fit."
In short, give me full authority to handle the matter and let me have the decision-making power over the negotiation.
"Wen Ya, are you crazy?" Jiu Mozhi's expression changed drastically, and he immediately rebuked him angrily.
Onoki was clearly deep in thought, wondering if this arrangement was appropriate. It would indeed be faster, but it might harm the strength of Iwagakure...
Because Wenya is ultimately not himself, his judgment is sometimes wrong, so he is likely to suffer losses in negotiations. But time waits for no one. Konoha has made a move, which may happen in a few days. If we are not ready, how will we deal with it?
In short, I need to handle this carefully and not act rashly.
Thinking about this, Onoki sighed. Even he was now hesitant, finding it really difficult to make a decision.
If a mistake is made, it could lead to utter ruin. It is so important that even Onoki cannot make a decision lightly and must be extremely careful.
"Konoha is putting pressure on us now, but the problem is that this matter has nothing to do with us. They're definitely using this as an excuse to make trouble. Another question is whether Konoha is behind this?"
Onoki believes that there are many things that need to be clarified right now, but the most important thing is to find out the truth so that there will be a way to start a dialogue with Konoha.
Although in the end we will definitely have to settle things with force, if we can find the truth to back it up, we can turn the tables and shift the blame onto Konoha.
In other words, Konoha is using this incident to expand its influence and provoke a war. Such a charge can be pinned on Konoha. Whether it's useful or not is not important. The important thing is to clarify this matter and not let Iwagakure suffer an unjust accusation.
Furthermore, if we can confirm that Konoha is behind this, then we can get Kumogakure, Kirigakure, and Sunagakure to agree to cooperate fully with us and fight against the powerful enemy Konoha!
"Time, we're still short on time," Huang Tu said, scratching his head with a hint of helplessness.
Everyone knows this, but the key issue is that there's no time.
In terms of timing, this is disadvantageous for us.
So what do we do?
"Time is something you have to make, so stop complaining and get to work." Onoki glared at his son before speaking again.
Do as I say, speed things up, and don't let Konoha lead you by the nose. I don't believe that Uchiha Hakubaku is really stronger than Uchiha Madara.
Although Onoki had an inexplicable fear of the Uchiha, he couldn't show weakness at this moment, because he was the Tsuchikage and couldn't back down just because he was afraid.
Furthermore, Onoki believed that after all these years, his Dust Release had reached a level of unparalleled mastery, and there was no reason why he couldn't defeat the Uchiha's Sharingan...
Oh, the Mangekyou Sharingan!
Moreover, while it is suspected that Uchiha Hakubaki possesses power comparable to Uchiha Madara, this does not necessarily mean that he has the power of Uchiha Madara. Therefore, Onoki believes that one should not scare oneself.
Stay calm and composed. Fighting isn't out of the question; I still believe we can fight!
……
In the Land of Earth, Iwagakure is actively preparing for war and has made all necessary preparations.
Meanwhile, the internal antagonism within Kumogakure was temporarily eased because external pressure came from Konoha.
Although Iwagakure and Kumogakure have a blood feud, Iwagakure still ranks lower than Konoha. So who is the most hated by the people of Kumogakure right now?
It is Konoha.
The Hidden Cloud Village has already shown its inclination and intends to cooperate with the Hidden Iwagakure Village.
On the other hand, the stance of the Hidden Mist faction is rather ambiguous, with no clear statement.
Sunagakure goes without saying; they were extremely proactive. Rasa was eager for Konoha to descend into chaos, so he firmly supported cooperation with Iwagakure.
Ohnoki is cunning and shrewd, but this is something that can be done, so why not do it?
We must do it, we must unite and overthrow Konoha.
Meanwhile, Black Zetsu finally resurrected Obito Uchiha using the Impure World Reincarnation technique; it took him some effort to finally bring him back to life.
Chapter 187 Edo Tensei, the Resurrected Uchiha Obito
"Reincarnation in the dirt?"
In the mountain graveyard, Obito Uchiha slowly awoke.
Having studied under Madara Uchiha, he naturally understood the Impure World Reincarnation technique, so he knew what was going on when he realized his current state.
Of course, what was even more profound for Obito Uchiha was everything that happened when he died, all of which was brought about by Hakumu.
I will kill you!
His hatred for Bai Mu far exceeded that of ordinary people; it was a deep-seated hatred, a desire to devour his flesh, gnaw on his blood, and skin him alive...
"Obito, what exactly happened that night? How did you get killed? How could Uchiha Hakuba possibly kill you? With Kamui, you couldn't possibly die."
Although Black Zetsu knew about Obito's death, he didn't know the specifics, and he firmly believed that Obito, with Kamui, could not have been killed.
Upon hearing this, Obito Uchiha's face immediately darkened. Are you mocking me?
Madara Uchiha's will, you...
He is feeling very bad right now.
Having been resurrected through the Impure World Reincarnation, I could clearly feel that I was being controlled. Although I could struggle, if Black Zetsu became ruthless, I would definitely have my consciousness erased.
In that case, they would truly become puppets.
The problem is that although he knows about the Impure World Reincarnation technique, he doesn't know how to use it.
The idea of lifting the curse was out of the question, since he wasn't Madara Uchiha, nor did he have Madara's brains, and besides, he didn't believe he would die.
I never expected that a trip to Konoha would result in my death. This situation is undoubtedly very awkward, and Obito Uchiha is very unhappy about it.
"Uchiha Hakumu, that guy is very strange. I have no idea what kind of eye technique his Sharingan has. It has strange flames that can ignore my physical body and directly attack my soul, destroy my nerves. More importantly, it is a technique that can cut through space. Even if I hide in Kamui, it is useless."
Although Obito Uchiha was filled with hatred and extremely dissatisfied with Black Zetsu who was controlling him, he had become much more rational after dying once. He could not reveal any intentions for the time being and had to find a way to break free from the control.
"His Sharingan shows no signs of blindness?"
Black Zetsu grew increasingly frightened as he listened. Something felt off; there was no way his eye technique could be so bizarre. There were countless techniques in the Mangekyou Sharingan, but none seemed as terrifying as this…
Who exactly is Uchiha Hakumu?
Obito shook his head and said, "No, and his Susanoo is strange; it seems to be in its final stage..."
"You mean the complete form? Impossible. Ordinary Mangekyou Sharingan cannot have a complete form. Only Madara-sama has such power."
Black Zetsu, of course, did not believe it. Over the years, only within the Uchiha clan had Madara Uchiha awakened the complete form of Susanoo.
This is because of the Eternal Eye. Where did Uchiha Hakumu get his eye that evolved into the Eternal Eye? How could he activate the complete Susanoo?
Are you kidding me?
This joke is really not funny at all.
At this moment, Black Zetsu felt immense fear, not because he was afraid of how terrifying Uchiha Hakuba was, but because he was afraid that things were getting out of his control.
Uchiha Hakumo is not Indra, so why does he have the Eternal Eye?
It's not that transplanting the Mangekyou Sharingan guarantees activation; the closer the blood relationship between the two individuals, the more likely it is to be activated.
Furthermore, where did Uchiha Hakumu get his brothers and sisters?
His parents died long ago and were mediocre people, how could that be?
Furthermore, only the reincarnation of Indra's chakra has the possibility of awakening this ability; it doesn't mean that two pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan with similar bloodlines will necessarily be able to awaken it.
The reincarnation of Indra is an even more important point, so what exactly is this...?
Black Zetsu is certain that White Shepherd is definitely not the reincarnation of Indra's chakra, but the problem is that it is the complete form of Susanoo. This was said by Obito Uchiha himself, so there can't be any mistake. So where exactly did things go wrong?
"I don't know, but it's true." Recalling that scene, Obito Uchiha still felt lingering fear. It was indeed terrifying, and he was no match for him at all.
If there had been even a glimmer of hope, he wouldn't be so terrified now. It's precisely because there was no hope that Obito Uchiha has lost all will to live.
Black Zetsu fell silent. This was truly a difficult situation. He hadn't expected things to be so complicated. To proceed this way, some clear changes needed to be made.
"In that case, we need to make some changes. We must lie low and wait for an opportunity."
Be patient for now and lie low.
Be patient and wait; your opportunity will come.
However, Obito Uchiha was not happy about this. The thought of being killed made him wonder what would happen if he were resurrected with the Impure World Reincarnation technique.
He was dead, and to make matters worse, he was killed by Bai Mu.
Of course, there is still a crucial juncture.
Nagato, what happened to the Akatsuki...?
This is undoubtedly very important.
Obito Uchiha was very concerned and immediately asked, "What's the situation with Nagato?"
"Nagato has already recruited the members previously given to him, namely Kakuzu, Hiruko, Sasori of the Red Sand, and another lunatic named Hidan has also been included in the recruitment scope."
Black Zetsu is in a bad mood right now, but he still answers patiently when it comes to serious matters, as there are some things that need to be clarified.
"Scorpion of Red Sand?"
Obito Uchiha was frustrated, extremely frustrated, so he only asked casually without needing to delve deeper into the matter, and thus said, "Never mind, it's alright."
As for Hidan?
They're all mentally ill, so there's no need to pay them any more attention.
