The ninja world is so small, and the comparison of strength is a process of one rising and the other falling. Since the Akatsuki organization failed to capture the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, the other side naturally gained a powerful helper.
The Eight-Tails is not something that can be captured easily. If it weren't for the sudden attack that caught the Hidden Cloud Village off guard, it would be basically impossible to capture the Jinchuriki as successfully as last time.
They captured the Two-Tails Jinchuriki Yukito, but lost Hidan. To be honest, Uchiha Obito got a little advantage by exchanging a subordinate who was hardly of any use for a perfect Jinchuriki. It was definitely worth it.
But it is really a pity that we could have done better, but because of negligence, we let the biggest prey slip away right under our noses.
"We are in some trouble. The five major ninja villages have reached an agreement and are about to form a coalition to attack us. As long as the daimyo of the major countries reconsiders, other small countries will also respond. It seems that we have become the public enemy of the ninja world."
The White Zetsu clones scattered around for reconnaissance constantly send the latest intelligence updates from the ninja world to the White Zetsu original body.
Kakuzu, who was indifferent to the future of the organization, said nothing and left to do his own thing. Kabuto Yakushi helped to use the Nine Sealing Techniques to seal the chakra of the tailed beasts and disappeared silently. Only Hoshigaki Kisame gave his signature ugly dry laugh and said:
"The only good news is that the enemy doesn't know where our new base is yet. Even if they form a coalition, they can't cause any harm to us!"
After saying this, he seemed somewhat satisfied with his statement. He nodded to Uchiha Obito at the top, and then the shadow of the Phantom Body Technique disappeared.
"Or should we continue with the previous covert operation strategy? It seems too conservative. Although the Eight-Tails is missing, the combat power of the Outer Path Golem is enough to fight the enemy head-on, right?"
Jue seemed to be saying this with a hint of meaning.
"Besides, our base will really not be discovered?"
Even though they were in a dark underground world, there was no guarantee that someone would find any clues and kill them all.
"Are you hiding something from me, Zetsu?"
Uchiha Obito asked in a cold voice.
"Although you rap, you won't say boring nonsense."
"Hidden from you? You really think too much. Of course we are hiding something from you. Everyone has a secret in their heart. However, the hiding place of the Outer Path Golem is indeed not that secret!"
"That means it has been discovered?"
Uchiha Obito frowned and didn't care about Zetsu's disrespectful words.
"As long as it exists in this world, it is only a matter of time before it is discovered. Rather, our underground base has actually had invaders a long time ago, but we don't know who is behind it yet, and we have no intention of telling the five major ninja villages yet. But we can't say for sure in the future. If a war breaks out, there will be some reaction."
"So, there's no point in hiding anymore, so let's take the initiative!"
Uchiha Obito made the decision without hesitation. The time had come to reveal the real purpose, and some small tricks were meaningless.
"But what I am very dissatisfied with is that you knew that this place might have been exposed, but you didn't tell me!"
"Haven't I told you now?"
"Really? There's no point in saying it now."
Anyway, the war is about to break out, and it's time to reveal all the cards.
If possible, Uchiha Obito definitely didn't want to make his relationship with Zetsu too awkward, but sometimes, this guy always made him feel so unhappy. This guy was not his subordinate, the two of them were more like a cooperative relationship... No, it should be that the dead Uchiha Madara was just a chess piece placed by his side to monitor him. The dangerous one was not him, but Uchiha Madara who had placed a curse in his heart that made him unable to betray.
"Want to issue a challenge?"
Jue asked tentatively.
Uchiha Obito shook his head.
"It's not necessary. If it was during the Five Kage Tournament, I would have gone directly. But since I chose to capture the tailed beast and missed the opportunity, there is no point in publicizing these conventional things. War is not a game of words."
Not to mention the trivial details, the Outer Path Demon Statue still lacks the chakra of three tailed beasts. The Six-Tails is still easier to deal with, but the combat power of the perfect Jinchūriki can only be fully guaranteed by Uchiha Obito himself. As for Kabuto Yakushi who can do such a thing, he cannot be fully trusted.
"I'm going to talk to Pharmacist Kabuto first. Some preparations must be made in advance!"
The power of the Rinnegan and the Mangekyō Sharingan must be fully exerted. Otherwise, there would be no point. The Rinnegan is the basis of one's combat effectiveness. If one cannot gather enough power to become the Ten-Tails Jinchūriki before the enemy decides to use the power of another Rinnegan, then there will be big trouble. Hidden dangers in adversity will always be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
…
In Konoha Village, Mizuki had already anticipated the information brought by Tsunade. Relying on the strength of one village alone, it was no longer possible to resist the invasion of the "Akatsuki" organization. If they wanted to protect the last remaining Jinchūriki and the tailed beast, they had to work together.
"The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki of the Hidden Cloud Village has survived and has been brought back by the Fourth Raikage to be under his care. Next, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Uzumaki Naruto and the Six-Tails Jinchuriki Yugao will be gathered together and closely guarded by the coalition forces. In addition..."
Tsunade said hesitantly.
"Since our village's Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is unable to fully exert its power, the power of the strongest Nine-Tails is simply not useful. The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki of the Hidden Cloud Village will assist Naruto to grow up quickly and have enough power to protect himself."
"Can't we do it ourselves?"
To be honest, this suggestion may actually expose one's own secrets. If the level of cooperation is too deep, it may lay the hidden dangers for future disputes.
"The plan has been decided. This is also part of the alliance. If this cannot be done, there will be no way to talk about the coalition of the major ninja villages with many conflicts."
Since Tsunade has made the decision, there is no need for everyone to argue about it. Just execute it directly.
"The Giant Turtle Island that was hidden by the Hidden Cloud Village for so many years has been destroyed? Has it been found?"
Tsunade nodded.
"He is still recuperating, but some basic functions are almost restored. It is not difficult to repeat what he did before. Kakashi, you lead Team 7 to the Land of Lightning. When the time comes, there will naturally be messengers from the Hidden Cloud Village to meet him."
