Chapter 371: Side Quest: The Cry of the One-Eyed Loser!



Karutagi Yagura's rule over the Hidden Mist Village has long been in jeopardy.

Compared with the rule of the Third Hokage of Konoha Village, the Hidden Mist Village seems like it could explode at any time.

If it weren't for the fact that Karajima Yagura was too powerful and good at using one faction to fight another, a large-scale uprising would have broken out in the Hidden Mist Village long ago.

But this situation of dry wood everywhere only needs a little spark to explode instantly and form an unstoppable resistance.

The master originally wanted to play it safe and wait a little longer until Mei Terumi could crush Yagura Karatachi, and then overthrow the Fourth Mizukage in one fell swoop to preserve more vitality for the Hidden Mist Village.

Zabuza's sudden appearance today, and even injuring Karitama Yagura in the battle, was like a incendiary bomb thrown into a pile of firewood, instantly igniting the fire in the hearts of the Kirigakure ninjas.

The development of the situation has already formed a general trend, and the Master is no longer allowed to hesitate. Hesitation at this time will only cause the Hidden Mist Village to suffer greater losses.

Moreover, if the Fourth Mizukage was not defeated with all his strength at this moment, not only Zabuza would die, but also those Kirigakure ninjas who had clearly expressed their attitudes would die, and the ninja from the Snow Clan who helped Zabuza would also die.

They were the Snow Clan that was once thought to have been extinct. They were the precious bloodline limit inheritors of the Hidden Mist Village and were as valuable assets as Mei Terumi that could not be lost.

After weighing the pros and cons in an instant, the Master gave the order to fight: "Mei Terumi! Let's start the action. Today is the day when the Fourth Mizukage's rule ends!"

After hearing the order from Master Yuan, Mei Terumi was stunned for a moment, and even her eyes were dazed for a moment, before she excitedly agreed loudly: "Yes! Master Yuan!"

Then she put her right index finger and thumb into her red lips and blew a loud whistle.

Hearing this voice, most of the ninjas present were stunned, then they took out a white cloth strip from their arms and tied it on their left arm as a mark.

"Down with the Fourth Mizukage, Karutagi Yagura! End the Blood Mist Village policy!"

Mei Terumi's voice echoed throughout the square, sparking countless responses.

"Down with Karatachi Yagura!"

"End the Blood Mist Village!"

"Save the Hidden Mist Village!!"

The Kirigakure Anbu, which was obviously not large in number, came under siege. Those Kirigakure ninjas who rushed into the square without a second thought and fought with Shiro did not have time to explain before they were shot to pieces by all kinds of hidden weapons.

The Hidden Mist Village broke out. Most of the Hidden Mist Ninjas wore white cloth strips, besieged the die-hard supporters of the Fourth Mizukage, and captured key parts of the Hidden Mist Village.

Even Bai was dizzy and had a white cloth tied around his left arm. He was then dragged out of the square and stood next to the Yuanshi with long white eyebrows.

Mei Terumi replaced Shiro and stood behind Zabuza, confronting Yagura Karuta who had lost an arm.

The sudden outbreak of the coup d'état made both Yagura Karuta and Zabuza a little confused. Uchiha Obito, who was manipulating Yagura Karuta behind the scenes, was even more confused, and the battle naturally came to a halt.

The confrontation between the two sides began to become unbalanced with the joining of Mei Terumi. Zabuza felt less and less pressure, while Karatachi Yagura couldn't help but begin to retreat.

Yagura Karuta was a Kage-level ninja before he became a Jinchūriki, and he became even more powerful after becoming a Jinchūriki.

But under control, the fighting power he could exert was greatly reduced, and now he had lost an arm, so he couldn't even use the strongest ninjutsu, the Water Mirror Technique. Naturally, he was unable to resist the oppression of the two Kage-level ninjas.

Uchiha Obito, who was hiding in the Mizukage Building, frowned at this moment. He was not sure whether he should stand up and suppress the resistance of the Kirigakure ninja again. He was even more unsure whether the Kirigakure ninja would be even more difficult to suppress after he stood up.

Seeing Yagura retreating step by step, Mei Terumi said in hatred: "I have finally waited for this day. Today I will definitely kill you! Yagura, repent for the evil you have committed!"

Karatachi Yagura didn't say anything, and even his expression didn't change at all. Chakra began to fluctuate more strongly on his body.

That chakra gave people a feeling of malice, uneasiness and evil, it was exactly the three-tailed beast chakra.

Mei Terumi was furious: "You are about to die, and you still don't say a word?"

"Kokumi Yagura, you deserve to die!"

Zabuza turned around, looked at Mei Terumi and said, "What are you talking to a puppet?"

Mei Terumi was stunned: "Ah? Puppet?"

Zabuza said disdainfully: "No way, so many years have passed, and you haven't discovered that the Fourth Mizukage Yagura Karuta has been controlled by someone using illusions and has become a puppet that can be manipulated by anyone?"

His voice was loud and full of Versailles flair, and it was clearly heard by everyone present.

All the Kirigakure ninjas were stunned.

Especially those diehard Mizukage ninjas who were besieged were completely dumbfounded after hearing Zabuza's words. They turned their heads blankly to look at the Fourth Mizukage with a wooden face, expecting him to say something.

But the Hidden Mist Ninja was disappointed. As a puppet under strong control, Karutagi Yagura had no initiative at all and could not react as he should.

Obito, who was controlling Karatachi Yagura, was also shocked by Zabuza's words. He focused all his attention on thinking about how the information was leaked, and even forgot to control the Fourth Mizukage to respond.

The silence lasted for ten seconds, and then everything was settled.

All the Kirigakure ninjas were certain that their Fourth Mizukage was being controlled by an illusion.

Even though it was incredible, no Kirigakure ninja could figure out why the Jinchūriki was theoretically immune to illusions, but their own Mizukage was tragically controlled by an illusion.

But the facts are right before our eyes, and we have to accept them even if we don’t believe them.

Generally speaking, ninjas are realists and have a strong ability to accept reality.

After all, being a ninja is a profession that involves walking on the edge of a knife and licking blood. Any ninja who cannot accept reality will be tortured by reality and eliminated in a physical sense.

Only those few guys who can truly ignore reality can withstand the torture of reality and in turn pin the ninja world to the ground and torture it.

Uchiha Obito is such a person, especially when he puts on the spiral mask and calls himself "Uchiha Madara", he claims to be invincible.

Obito was very upset when the fact that the Fourth Mizukage was controlled was exposed, but he soon realized that it didn't matter anymore.

The three major ninja clans of the Hidden Mist Village have all been wiped out, and most of the powerful ninjas have defected. It can be said that the value of this village has been drained.

Now that the truth has been exposed, there will be no further losses, except for the puppet of the Fourth Mizukage in front of him.

The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karuta, could not be taken away by Uchiha Obito no matter what.

No matter how powerful the illusion of the Mangekyō Sharingan is, it is still just an illusion after all. Its core is deception rather than control, and its control over the Fourth Mizukage is limited.

Uchiha Madara had emphasized at the beginning that the Fourth Mizukage should not be allowed to leave the Land of Water, and it would be best not to leave the Hidden Mist Village, otherwise Yagura Karuta, who was suppressed by the illusion, might be able to break free from the illusion.

What's more, the illusion cast by Uchiha Madara has lasted for more than ten years, and its control has obviously declined, and it will not last for a few more years.

Uchiha Obito suddenly laughed: "Well, let's end the control of the Hidden Mist Village today and make a big scene before leaving, as the Hidden Mist Village's final repayment of Lin's blood debt."

This fool did not notice that the decision he thought was his own was actually influenced by a certain will.

Through the imperceptible medium of Black Zetsu, a will that does not belong to this world descended here, quietly pushing Uchiha Obito to change his thinking, and decide to go all out to kill Momochi Zabuza.

As for why he did this, this will could not explain the specific reason. It was obvious that the operation of the ninja world was very smooth, and the changes in key figures and the development of events were also in line with his expectations.

But he just felt that something was wrong. He felt that this little guy Zabuza Momochi contained the power that could change the development trend of the ninja world.

This will is the Sage of Six Paths, Otsutsuki Hagoromo, who is in the Pure Land, and his inexplicable intuition comes from himself in different time and space.

This powerful being who had been promoted to the level of Bloodline Net had acquired a hint of transcendental characteristics after a deep integration with the Pure Land.

In the future time and space, the Six Paths Sage, who is clearly aware of Uchiha Yu's existence and has established a causal connection across time and space with the help of Senju Tobirama's travel, is working hard to convey information to the long river of time.

The Six Paths Sage of this time and space did receive the information because the time interval was not far.

However, in cases where time is crossed, especially when the information is transmitted through retrograde time, it is too weak to be detected by the Six Paths Sage, and it can only be seen as vague information in the sea of ​​​​subconsciousness.

After Zabuza uncovered the secret of the Uchiha clan genocide night and influenced Uchiha Itachi through Uchiha Sasuke, the subconscious of the Six Paths Sage was activated.

He still didn't know what had happened, but he used his subconscious intuition to identify the source of the incident.

That's why the Six Paths Sage used the surveillance on Black Zetsu to bring part of his consciousness down to the Ninja World, in order to influence his descendant Uchiha Obito and try to kill Momochi Zabuza.

What the Six Paths Sage didn't know was that as he projected his power into the Ninja World, a barely detectable aura of Pure Land was also spreading in the Ninja World.

This breath of death was extremely weak, and even the most sensitive ninja could not detect it, including Black Zetsu who was lurking underground.

But the breath of the Pure Land activated the hidden subsystem of the [System] in Zabuza's soul, and a highly compressed piece of information began to be released.

Because the degree of compression is so high, even the release must be done slowly and carefully to avoid irreversible errors due to lack of redundancy.

Uchiha Obito put on the mask, opened the Mangekyō Sharingan, entered the Kamui space through Kamui, and then suddenly appeared next to the Fourth Mizukage.

Under the surprised gazes of Zabuza and the other Kirigakure ninjas, Obito took a step forward and stood in front of Yagura Karatachi. His red Mangekyō Sharingan swept across everyone present, emitting a terrifying aura of oppression.

The Kirigakure ninjas couldn't help but take half a step back, even Mei Terumi was no exception. Only Momochi Zabuza, who was standing at the front, didn't move at all.

At the Divine Court Meeting in the original time and space, Zabuza had stared into the eyes of Uchiha Yu more than once, and had long been accustomed to the intimidation of the Mangekyo's pupil power.

After being stared at by the pair of Sharingan that was closest to Indra, and then seeing Obito's ordinary Sharingan, Zabuza felt: That's it?

Zabuza didn't care, but the other Kirigakure ninjas found it unbearable.

Especially since Master Yuan's aging body was too weak to withstand the pressure of the Kaleidoscope's pupil power. He could only hold the snake-head crutch with both hands to barely stay standing.

Mei Terumi, who was the closest, looked at Uchiha Obito and asked, "It was you who hypnotized Yagura Karatachi. Are you a ninja from the Uchiha family?"

Uchiha Obito let out a creepy laugh: "My name is Uchiha Madara."

After a heart-pounding silence, the young Kirigakure ninjas raised their doubts:

"Who is Uchiha Madara? Is there such a ninja in the ninja world?"

"Uchiha is a ninja from Konoha Village. Could it be that Konoha Village is causing trouble?"

"I remember that there are only two brothers left in Uchiha. Is it one of them?"

"No, those two are called Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke. This Uchiha Madara is the third living Uchiha."

"It seems to be a little-known fish that slipped through the net."

Uchiha Obito: "..."

Not only Uchiha Obito was speechless, even the older Kirigakure ninjas were speechless. Uchiha Madara, the infamous fish that escaped the net, was truly the biggest joke in the ninja world.

It has to be said that the long-term policy of the Blood Mist Village has greatly reduced the quality of the Kirigakure ninjas, especially the serious lack of historical knowledge education.

The master shook his head: "Impossible, you can't be Uchiha Madara, I have seen him, his strength..."

The Mangekyō Sharingan that Uchiha showed as the leader suddenly accelerated in speed, and the aura he exuded exploded exponentially, suppressing the Master's words.

All the Kirigakure ninjas were silent. With such a terrifying aura, no matter if it was Uchiha Madara or not, he would definitely be a formidable enemy.

Even the master who had seen Uchiha Madara with his own eyes made a wrong judgment because the time interval was too long and his aging body was too weak.

It seems that the only Uchiha ninja who can be so powerful is Uchiha Madara.

As for why Uchiha Madara, who was over 90 years old, looked so young, the master automatically imagined that Uchiha Madara had mastered even more magical ninjutsu, which allowed him to have a long life and a young body.

This cannot be blamed on his wild imagination, but because he has witnessed inhuman miracles.

When the Master was still young, Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha teamed up to suppress the newly born Mist Village.

So he had witnessed Uchiha Madara transform into a giant who stood tall and proud, and he had also witnessed the miracle of Hashirama Senju turning a deserted island into a forest with just a clap of his hands.

He also witnessed the miracle of Hashirama Senju who could not die in battle. No matter how terrible the injury was, he could recover in the blink of an eye.

With such knowledge as a foundation, Master Yuan thought it was not surprising at all that Uchiha Madara could live a long life and remain young, and it was even natural.

Even the Master did not doubt Uchiha Obito's identity, so naturally the other Kirigakure ninjas would not doubt it either.

Including Mei Terumi and Zabuza Momochi, they all felt their scalps tingling, their hearts pounding, and their hands and feet shaking uncontrollably.

For the senior ninjas who knew the name Uchiha Madara, the intimidating power of the Shura of the Ninja World who pacified the troubled times was too great. The terror was established by the record of annihilating villages time and time again and the mountains of corpses.

Although these senior ninjas were trembling, they still had saliva in their mouths and fighting spirit in their hearts. They took out various weapons and prepared for battle.

Although those young Kirigakure ninjas did not know who Uchiha Madara was, they had completely lost their fighting ability.

Because these young Genin and Chunin were not strong enough, when they were scanned by the Mangekyō Sharingan, they were like mice seen by a tabby cat. Their minds were overwhelmed by the fear that came from their genes, and they all stood there trembling.

Uchiha Obito was extremely satisfied with the reaction of the Kirigakure ninja. His former cowardice had now turned into arrogance. When he was feared by others, he would indulge in the false feeling of power.

This is not his true nature, but a distortion of Uchiha Madara's illusion.

There are differences in strength between the Mangekyō Sharingan. Although Obito possesses the Mangekyō Sharingan, he is powerless in front of Madara.

After more than ten years of wear and tear, Uchiha Obito finally broke free from some of Madara's illusions, and even began to plan to completely get rid of the seal on his heart, but he was unable to get rid of the change in his personality.

Just as Uchiha Obito was indulging in the pleasure of being feared, a familiar prompt sound rang in Zabuza's ears.

【bite--!】

[The host encounters a key figure in the development of the history of the ninja world: Uchiha Obito. ]

[Trigger the side quest: The wail of the one-eyed loser! ]

[Mission content: Defeat Uchiha Obito who only has one Mangekyō Sharingan, take off his one-eyed mask, reveal the truth that he is impersonating Uchiha Madara, and make him wail like a defeated dog.]

[Task reward: unknown.]

[Note 1: Uchiha Obito is the most gifted ninja in the history of the Uchiha clan. He awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan at the age of 13, and his unique eye technique is called Kamui.]

[Note 2: The Mangekyō Sharingan's Kamui technique can open a portal to the Kamui space. Obito can freely enter and exit the Kamui space, capture enemies, and can make his body hollow and absolutely immune to all attacks.]

What a mess this mission is!

After reading the content of the mission, Zabuza Momochi gave up the mission without hesitation.

There's no game. With just the power of Kamui, Zabuza can only be defeated by Obito, while he can't even touch a hair of Obito.

Although he gave up the mission, Zabuza also obtained a lot of key information, which allowed him to successfully get rid of his fear of Uchiha Madara.

But his jealousy towards Kamui erupted like a volcano, and Zabuza's face was distorted.

It's so unfair. This Uchiha Obito, not only has he awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan, but he also has such an invincible ability.

Uchiha Itachi, whom Zabuza was deeply afraid of, now seems to be simply powerful and is no match for Obito at all.

The Uchiha clan is truly the darling of the ninja world. They have had heritage and chakra advantages since the Genin era, and as long as they awaken the Sharingan, they can challenge opponents of higher levels.

And Uchiha who has awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan can become a powerful Kage-level ninja overnight no matter how old he is.

Zabuza Momochi couldn't help but think back to the past of his original body, how much hardship and suffering he had endured in order to become a Kage-level ninja, and even after becoming a rebel ninja, he never relaxed for a single day.

Zabuza's eyes turned red with jealousy, and the look he gave Uchiha Obito was full of dissatisfaction and resentment.

Why are you so far away?
