Izawa Sugi's movements were very fast.
He found an extra-large basket, stuffed Obito into it, closed the lid, and carried it on his back.
Then Izawa Sugi used the transformation technique and suddenly turned into the appearance of Uchiha Obito, still wearing the whirlpool mask.
Although Senju Tobirama was very worried that Izawa Sugi would really call Senju Butsukan "grandfather" and give his elder brother a son, making him a father, but at this moment Konoha really couldn't find anyone suitable to go to Senju Butsukan.
Senju Fusuma disappeared while investigating the Tsukuyomi. This time they will most likely face the Tsukuyomi. Izawa Sugi has experience in dealing with the Tsukuyomi and also possesses the Flying Thunder God.
Unlike the small area on the moon, the mainland is vast. When faced with an unmanageable crisis, Izawa Sugi can run away without worrying about being blocked, so it doesn't matter even if he takes Uchiha Obito with him.
As for Izawa Sugi's strength...
Senju Tobirama thought of the scene where Izawa Sugi took him to fire the Samsara Cannon, traveled through the universe in Susanoo, and descended on the moon... He shook his head. Instead of worrying about whether Izawa Sugi could deal with the enemy, he should worry more about what new troubles this kid might cause.
Senju Tobirama automatically arranged what to do next in his mind.
Uchiha Madara took Uzumaki Mito to the Uzumaki clan, which not only intimidated the Uzumaki Village, but also allowed the Uzumaki Country to help convince the Daimyo of the Fire Country and resolve the suspicion between Konoha and the Daimyo.
Shan and Fei leave the village not only to investigate the matter of Moon Ninja, but also to track down the missing ninja of the Hyuga family and find out whether the Hyuga clan really has the intention of rebellion.
Although Tobirama Senju was very wary and cautious of the Uchiha, as a Hokage, he needed to help the village's ninjas improve their strength.
The Senju lost a group of young and strong men. Originally, Senju Tobirama wanted to take the opportunity to merge the Senju and Konoha, which would not only strengthen the overall strength of the village, but also allow the Senju to gain huge reputation.
But now the Senju have joined forces with the Uchiha clan. If they become a fusion ninja clan like the Ino-Shika-Chou clan in the future...
Senju Tobirama slowly let out the anger in his chest. Well, although he did not merge into Konoha, he could be considered to have merged with other ninja clans.
Once there is one, there will be two. When the Senju and Uchiha clans merge into one, they will eventually merge with other ninja clans in the village. In the long run, the boundaries between family ninjas will disappear, and everyone will have only one identity, that is, Konoha ninja.
Besides, Uchiha's Sharingan is indeed very powerful, and it is not shameful to marry an Uchiha.
Even the ancestors buried in the ground might be so angry that they jump out of the pure land, Senju Tobirama thought nonchalantly, the dead are dead, this world belongs to the living, the dead have no human rights!
On this point, he had the same idea as Izawa Sugi.
Senju Tobirama quickly issued various orders, collecting world intelligence, stockpiling supplies, strengthening Konoha's internal and external defenses, and then selecting an allied country... Forget about the Cloud Ninja and the Rock Ninja, after all, they just fought. The source of the puppetry on the Sand Ninja side is suspicious, and it will be troublesome if it is related to the Moon Ninja.
In the end, Senju Tobirama had no choice but to choose Kirishin.
He called two teams and wrote a letter himself: "Make sure to hand it over to the Third Mizukage."
The captain nodded and was about to accept the mission and leave, but Senju Tobirama said softly: "If it is impossible, you can go find the eldest sister-in-law. Their schedule is likely to overlap with yours."
The route from Uzumaki Village to Konoha partially overlaps with the route from Water Country to Konoha. If the Kirito Ninja are shameless, they can only open the door and release Uchiha Madara and Uzumaki Mito.
The captain's expression twisted slightly. Coming back with Uzumaki Mito, does that mean they will travel with that awesome guy Uchiha Madara?
But since the order comes from the Second Hokage, we can only accept it.
The team leader set off with his men in a sad mood. Senju Tobirama rubbed his temples and continued to handle his official business.
A long time passed by unknowingly, and in the blink of an eye it was late at night. After reading the last document, Tobirama Senju breathed a sigh of relief and was about to take a rest when suddenly a secretary came to report that the leader of the Hyuga clan wanted to see him.
Senju Tobirama frowned. He had just comforted the Hyuga clan leader two days ago. What happened again? Why did he come to see him in the middle of the night?
"Please let him in."
The Hyuga clan was suspected of colluding with foreign ninjas and assassinating the Second Hokage. Currently, the Hyuga ninjas who were on missions outside were being recalled one after another.
The situation of the Hyuga clan is somewhat difficult, but fortunately the Hyuga ninjas also have their own familiar friends, and they are also actively inquiring about the situation, hoping that their friends can help say a few words.
"The ninja who attacked the Second-Daimyo was controlled by the enemy. How could our Hyuga clan betray Konoha?"
Because the Hyuga clan had no criminal record, many ninjas in the village thought that the Hyuga ninjas were just unlucky and were used by enemies from other villages.
Considering the stability of the village, although Senju Tobirama asked the Anbu to keep an eye on the Hyuga clan, he did not prohibit the Hyuga ninjas from moving freely in the village, but only did not allow them to leave the village.
...In fact, Tobirama Senju did not think that the Hyuga clan had any rebellious intentions.
But it is an indisputable fact that the Moon Ninjas have the same Byakugan as the Hyuga clan. Even though the moon is cracked, it doesn't mean that all the Moon Ninjas are dead!!
The puppetry skills of the Moon Ninja are unmatched. Currently, Konoha's barrier is unable to detect the intrusion of puppet ninjas. What if a Moon Ninja disguises himself as a Hyuga ninja and sneaks into Konoha to cause trouble?
Senju Tobirama will always have to give an explanation to the other families of Konoha, so before the barrier class is upgraded and a way to distinguish the two is found, it would be more appropriate for the Hyuga ninja to stay in the village to avoid suspicion.
While Senju Tobirama was thinking, the Hyuga clan leader had already walked in with a clan member.
The Hyuga clan leader looked a little haggard, and his voice was weak: "Second generation sir."
Senju Tobirama glanced at the person following the Hyuga clan leader. Oh, he recognized him. This was the head of the Hyuga branch family.
Senju Tobirama slowed down his tone and said, "Hyuga clan leader, what brings you here so late at night? What's the matter?"
The Hyuga clan leader smiled bitterly: "I have been looking through the family books these days and found some information about Moon Ninja."
Senju Tobirama was stunned for a moment. He nodded slightly. The Anbu beside him jumped out, took a scroll from the Hyuga clan leader, checked it and then handed it to Senju Tobirama.
Senju Tobirama opened the scroll and asked as he read it: "Hinata and Tsukushi have the same eye technique. According to Tsukushi, you two were relatives?"
"Yes, the Hyuga clan once lived on the moon. Later, there were disagreements within the family, and some of the clan members left the moon and settled on the mainland, which is where we are now."
The Hyuga clan leader said weakly, "But this is all ancient history from hundreds of years ago. Or was they banished from the moon because of some irreconcilable differences? How can we possibly have any contact with them again?"
The Hyuga clan leader did not mention the conflict between the main family and the branch family within the Hyuga clan. This was an internal matter of the Hyuga clan, and he did not want to spread the family's secrets.
As a result, the Hyuga clan leader never expected that the relatives on the moon would be so cruel. Not only did they betray the Hyuga clan, they also planned to dig out their eyes and destroy the continent!
This is really a disaster from the sky. They, the Hyuga clan, are even more unlucky than the Uchiha clan!
"Regarding the ninjutsu of Moon Ninja, does your family have any records?"
Senju Tobirama looked at the scroll in his hand. The scroll indeed recorded the origin of the Hyuga. The words used were simple and the grammar was concise. It was obvious that it was a documentary material passed down from ancient times.
The Hyuga clan leader looked a little unhappy: "The Moon Ninja definitely has the ability of the Byakugan, but the new techniques that the Hyuga clan has developed over the past few hundred years, I'm sure the Moon Ninja won't know."
Senju Tobirama's mouth twitched: "In other words, during the hundreds of years of separation, you didn't know about the new techniques developed by Moon Ninja."
The Hyuga clan leader looked at Senju Tobirama speechlessly: "We have no contact with the Moon Ninja, and the Moon Ninja have never come to the mainland to fight. How do we know about the new ninjutsu they developed?"
Senju Tobirama was a little disappointed, as he still wanted to study the puppet technique of Tsuki Ninja.
Everyone has to have some dreams. Senju Tobirama also wanted to try to make two laboratory puppet assistants for himself to guard the door, so that his laboratory would not be taken over by his uncles and aunts at home.
The Hyuga clan leader said hurriedly, "Second-generation sir, we Hyuga want to wash away the dirt that the Moon Ninja splashed on us. Please allow us Hyuga ninjas to join the task force to investigate the Moon Ninjas. We are the only ones who can handle the Byakugan tracking."
Senju Tobirama pondered for a moment and agreed to the Hyuga clan leader's request.
"The first team has already set out. Tomorrow morning, you Hyuga will send out a support team and meet at the village gate."
The Hyuga clan leader was delighted after hearing this: "Thank you, Second-generation Master, for giving us the opportunity to prove our innocence."
Senju Tobirama's expression softened: "I still say that. I have never doubted the Hyuga clan, but as the village's Kage, I also have my own responsibilities. I hope that the Hyuga clan leader can understand."
The Hyuga clan leader exchanged a few polite words with Senju Tobirama, then happily left with the mission scroll.
On the way back, the Hyuga clan leader said to the Hyuga ninja beside him: "Sousuke, you will select a few good players and set out early tomorrow morning."
According to the custom of the Hyuga clan, the head of the branch family is the brother of the head of the main family, and Hyuga Sosuke is also the younger brother of the Hyuga clan leader.
At this moment, the head of the Hyuga branch family and the younger brother of the main family raised his head slightly, his white eyes staring at his brother with an unpredictable look.
As expected, this is the case again. Are we going to send their branch family ninjas to die for the main family?
Just because he was born two years late, he, the young master of the main family, became the head of the branch family, and he had to live up to others' wishes. Even the little brats of the main family could bully him. If he was hit on the left cheek, he would submissively extend his right cheek to be beaten. The ninjas of the branch family would always die for the main family members.
In the past, Hyuga Sosuke simply thought that the distinction between the main family and the branch family in Hyuga was to protect the Hyuga Byakugan bloodline. After all, in the Warring States Period, too many families disappeared.
But now it seems that is not the case at all!
The reason why the Hyuga main family used the bird in the cage to control the branch family was because the main family was held down by the branch family! The Hyuga main family is the loser!
What's even more ridiculous is that the Hyuga ninjas who came to the mainland from the moon were all members of the main family, but they artificially divided the main family into branch families and invented the bird in the cage, which controlled the life and death of the branch family ninjas in their hands...
Vicious, vile, unforgivable.
They are brothers. The younger brother died to protect his elder brother. It is natural for a younger brother to sacrifice his life for his family. But what if even the main family and the branch family are fake? What if the separation between the main family and the branch family is just a reason and excuse for someone to die?
Hyuga Sosuke could not forget what the Hyuga branch ninja secretly said to him. He knew that the Hyuga branch ninja was controlled, and he also knew that the other party's goal was the Hyuga main family's Byakugan, and he even knew that doing so was a betrayal of Konoha...
But the main family has mastered the art of controlling the bird in a cage, and Konoha is likely to stand on the side of the main family. The ninjas of the branch family will never have a chance to stand out, and they will be slaves of the main family from birth to death.
Only when all the members of the main family are dead can they split up and choose their own destiny with dignity.
Thinking of this, Hinata Sosuke's heart grew colder and harder.
When the Hyuga clan leader brought his younger brother back to the Hyuga clan's territory, Hyuga Sosuke turned around and closed the door of the clan's territory.
A special rune flashed on the door, blocking out external vision and chakra perception.
The shocked voice of the Hyuga clan leader came from behind: "What is going on?!"
There was a faint smell of blood coming from the clan's territory, and there were even faint traces of blood in the corners.
The next second, several puppets that looked no different from humans appeared around the body of the Hyuga clan leader. The Hyuga clan leader immediately rolled his eyes, turned around and wanted to rush out of the clan territory.
But he was stopped by Hyuga Sousuke.
Hinata Sousuke had a strange smile on his face: "If you kill me, I will become a puppet of the Moon Ninja. If you don't kill me, brother can't leave."
He opened his hands, seemingly defenseless: "Brother, you choose."
The Hyuga clan leader was shocked by this sudden change. After a moment's pause, his eyes went dark and he knew nothing.
Hyuga Sosuke looked at the Hyuga clan leader indifferently. He said to a puppet ninja, "Thank you."
The puppet ninja looks so realistic, just like a real person.
An old voice came from the body of the puppet ninja: "The eyes of all the Hyuga main family have been taken out, and the rest are branch family ninjas. I have studied the curse that the main family has injected into your heads. It is a special rune that connects the visual nerve and the brain. If you want to remove it, there is a high probability that the brain will be damaged. You..."
"It doesn't matter. According to what we agreed before, from now on, the Hyuga ninja will become a ninja who uses puppetry. We, the branch ninja, will project our consciousness into the puppet. Even if the enemy has mastered the curse seal technique, it doesn't matter if the main body is not present, right?"
Hyuga Sosuke said calmly: "As long as we can hold on for ten years and wait for the next generation to grow up, the Hyuga ninjas will no longer be troubled by the curse seal in the future."
"Uchiha Madara and the Nine-Tails have left the village. Uchiha Afei, who can fight against Uchiha Madara, is also not here. Within three days, the Hyuga clan must leave Konoha in batches, otherwise when they come back, we will not be able to leave."
He looked at the Otsutsuki puppet: "Are you sure you can cause a commotion?"
"With these eyes of the Hyuga clan, it is enough to push a small meteorite."
The old Otsutsuki said, "The gravity of the planetary belt is very weak. It will keep approaching the continent. We just need to give it a gentle push."
"It's tomorrow night, is that ok?"
"……Can."
That night, earth-shaking changes took place within the Hyuga clan, but Konoha knew nothing about it.
The next morning, a team of four people from the Hyuga branch went to support the investigation of the Moon Ninja.
However, after these four branch ninjas left the village, they did not follow the whereabouts of Izawa Sugi and others, but turned around and rushed towards the east of Konoha.
The atmosphere among the four people was somewhat depressing. The youngest ninja whispered, "Are we leaving the village like this?"
"...The Moon Ninja has obtained the control technique of the main family. If you don't want to die, you have to listen to them."
The young ninja couldn't help shedding tears. He was a native Hyuga clan member of Konoha, and he had always been proud of being a Konoha ninja.
"If we go find the Second Generation Master..."
"It's useless. The main family is dead. Konoha will not keep us, the Hyuga branch ninjas controlled by the Moon Ninja."
"But we left the main family and fell into the hands of the Moon Ninja. Is there any difference?"
"Yes, the Moon Ninja promised not to engrave the curse mark on the next generation of children. We are the last generation of Hyuga Ninja with the curse mark. From now on, Hyuga Ninja will be the same as other ninja clans."
A middle-aged Hyuga ninja said in a deep voice: "If you want to be loyal to Konoha, then commit suicide. I'm sorry, my son will be cursed next year, and I don't want him to repeat my sad and shameful life."
The young Hyuga ninja said nothing more, and the faint sound of his crying disappeared in the wind.
Time passed slowly. When Ize Shan and his men followed the traces left by the enemy, heading north, out of the Fire Kingdom and arriving at the Frost Kingdom, something strange happened.
Late at night, in the starry sky, there is a planetary belt across the sky. The planetary belt reflects the light of the stars and is the brightest celestial body in the night sky.
But in this bright ribbon-like planetary belt, a small meteorite suddenly broke away from its orbit and began to fall rapidly towards the continent.
Izawa Sugi, who was resting in his room with the door closed, suddenly opened his eyes.
This was an inn on the border of the Frost Country and the Fire Country. Tsunade, Orochimaru, and Jiraiya were sleeping in the next room. Another team of support ninjas was led by an Akimichi, who had already been assigned to watch the night. The rest of the people were resting.
It was quiet all around, and the ninja on guard didn't notice anything wrong, but the next second, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, and then Izawa Sugi jumped onto the roof.
"My Lord! Look!!"
It was a very beautiful arc. It started as a point of white light, then began to burn with the friction of the air, turning into an orange-red fireball and falling straight into the southern part of the mainland.
Ize Shan's face darkened.
"…It's Moon Ninja."
At that moment just now, he sensed the aura of the Samsara Eye coming from the distant horizon.
Uchiha Obito also woke up. He used Izawa Sugi's vision to look at the location where the meteorite fell. His tone was not good: "That direction is Konoha."
He couldn't help but ask Isawa Shan: "Didn't you kill the Moon Ninja when you went to the Moon? How come some of them are still alive?"
Ize Shan pursed his lips and said after a long while: "To correct your two questions, even if I kill all the Moon Ninjas, I don't know where the first few Moon Ninjas that arrived on the mainland have gone."
"And I didn't kill the Moon Ninja."
He emphasized, "I don't kill people."
Uchiha Obito was extremely shocked: "Wait, haven't you killed an enemy before? No, you have a strong murderous aura, it's impossible that you haven't been stained with blood!"
Izawa Sugi said unhappily, "I killed the enemy at first, but then I joined another organization and specialized in killing evil spirits."
"That's why Konoha was hit by a meteorite, because you didn't root out the problem."
Uchiha Obito didn't care about Izawa Sugi's holding back. He sneered: "The Ninja World is not where you lived in the past."
Ize Shan pursed his lips and said nothing, feeling a little angry.
As for whether something will happen to Konoha?
Neither Izawa Sugi nor Uchiha Obito were worried.
Although Izawa Sugi complained that Tobirama Senju's strength was poor, there is a comparison. Among the five major ninja villages, Tobirama Senju's strength is actually the best. Even if a group of meteorites fell from the sky, Tobirama Senju could use the Flying Thunder God Technique to move them somewhere else.
"To push the meteorite, you must use the power of the Samsara Eye and the propulsion device."
Izawa Sugi frowned slightly, "The Otsutsuki got the main family's Byakugan, but what about the propulsion device?"
Uchiha Obito said coldly: "The propulsion device is made of the Byakugan. Otsutsuki Tsukushi can make one device, and he can also make a second one."
Izawa Sugi gasped: "Are you saying that all the Hyuga in Konoha are finished?"
Uchiha Obito sneered: "It's not new for the ninja clan in Konoha to be wiped out. Last time, Uchiha Itachi and I wiped out the Uchiha clan. This time, maybe it's a rebellion within the Hyuga clan that wiped out the Hyuga clan~"
The corner of Izawa Sugi's mouth twitched. When it comes to managing Konoha, Uchiha Obito is indeed very professional.
"But the situation with the Uchiha and the Hyuga is different, right?"
The Uchiha clan has always been envied and excluded by the Konoha high-level leaders. The Hyuga clan has always been aware of the times and fell quickly. The Konoha high-level leaders still trust the Hyuga clan very much.
Uchiha Obito casually suggested: "How about we stop chasing Senju Butsukan and go back to Konoha to check the situation?"
Ize Shan was silent for a moment, then said decisively: "Going back now would be a failure."
Izawa Sugi led his men to the place where Senju Hashirama and Senju Butsuma had investigated before and searched carefully. They found that someone had sealed Senju Butsuma with a special method, but happened to leave behind a few clues.
Izawa Sugi immediately concluded that the disappearance of Thousand-Handed Buddha was most likely caused by Hei Zetsu.
The only things that can defeat Senju Butsuma are sealing techniques and fairy techniques, and Otsutsuki Tsukushi happens to master fairy techniques. As long as Hei Zetsu tells Otsutsuki Tsukushi that Senju Butsuma is Senju Hashirama's biological father, the Otsutsuki Tsukushi will definitely not let Senju Butsuma go.
Since Hei Zetsu set a trap and invited Izawa Sugi, Izawa Sugi would certainly not let it go, and he didn't mind eating another piece of cake.
Izawa Sugi brought a support team, and even brought three children, Tsuna, Orochimaru and Jiraiya, to track them together, just to give the enemy the illusion that "he did not find the trap".
But Izawa Shan did not expect that the enemy would take advantage of this opportunity to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
It's too late to go back for help now. Instead of going back for help, it's better to continue tracking and try to bring back Thousand-Handed Buddha. It would be even better if we can take the opportunity to swallow Hei Ze.
"It could also be the remaining Moon Ninja of the Otsutsuki family." Uchiha Obito analyzed, "Or it could be the Cloud Ninja."
The Frost Country is close to the Lightning Country, which is within the sphere of influence of the Cloud Ninjas.
If Black Zetsu possesses a middle-level Cloud Ninja, he can work together with the Otsutsuki to set a trap and directly swallow up the Konoha ninja who is tracking him.
Izawa Sugi asked back: "Are you afraid of the Kumo Ninja?"
Uchiha Obito: "Of course I'm not afraid."
Izawa Sugi said, "Now that we are here, if we really can't catch Black Zetsu and the Moon Ninja of the Otsutsuki family, let's go for a walk in the Hidden Cloud Village."
Uchiha Obito was stunned: "What are you going to do in Kumogakure?"
"Retrieve Tobirama's sword, and bring the Two-Tails and the Eight-Tails back to Konoha."
Izawa Sugi felt a faint anger rising in his heart. He held back because it was his principle, but the losses and consequences caused by it made him extremely regretful.
He closed his eyes slightly, then opened them again, with only determination left in his eyes.
"It was originally captured by Hashirama and Madara."
