The Hokage, having traveled here, of course he'd unify the ninja world!

Chapter 973 Any Possible Allies

Black Zetsu nodded after hearing Obito's words.

That was indeed the plan as originally intended.

However, due to a series of unforeseen events, he lost his Rinnegan and needs to acquire an eye of the same level. He is currently waiting for his Tenseigan to awaken.

Moreover, capturing the tailed beasts requires Obito's help, since even though Black Zetsu is very strong now, he can't move freely like Obito sometimes with his space-time ninjutsu.

It would be ridiculous to defeat a Jinchuriki but not be able to take him with you.

To complete his plan, Obito continued, "The ninja world is in such chaos right now, it's the perfect time to capture the tailed beasts."

"We can capture the tailed beasts first and wait."

Black Zetsu's jet-black eyes showed obvious surprise: "Why are you suddenly being so proactive?"

Obito chuckled dismissively, "Don't be so happy yet. We're working together to capture the Tailed Beasts. I need to keep an eye on half of them."

"Once you revive Madara, I will return half of the Tailed Beast to you."

Black Zetsu never expected Obito to have this kind of logic.

[Are you thinking of getting insurance for yourself?]

"Are you really that eager to take revenge on Madara Uchiha?" Black Zetsu asked tentatively.

Obito's tone was indifferent, but his eyes revealed a deep-seated hatred.

"Why not? Just because Madara wanted to find a substitute, he controlled my life."

"My life shouldn't be like this!"

Black Zetsu knew that the Uchiha clan all had one thing in common: they were stubborn.

Very extreme.

Once you have a goal, you'll dedicate yourself to it wholeheartedly.

Black Zetsu could already sense from Obito's emotions that this was real.

Obito's hatred for Madara was indeed beyond imagination.

Moreover, Obito wouldn't have much use for obtaining the Tailed Beasts, so this deal is worthwhile.

"Don't worry, Ban is just a consumable that I can use."

"If we cooperate well, you'll definitely be satisfied with Ban's situation."

Black Zetsu had no other choice at this point; he wouldn't let go of any potential ally.

Even if it's like dealing with a tiger for its skin.

"So, which Jinchuriki have you tracked down now?"

Obito looked very motivated, and Black Zetsu couldn't let him down.

After a moment's thought, he spoke:

"We've exposed too much intelligence; we need to be careful."

“The jinchūriki of other villages are not easy to capture, but Takigakure Village…”

……

Hidden Cloud Village.

After Konoha sent out all the invitations, Kumogakure naturally noticed that Konoha hadn't sent them any.

At this sensitive time, Yunyin was also very vigilant.

Because it's very clear that Konoha is about to make a big move.

Raikage's office.

"The fact that our Cloud Village wasn't even on the guest list for Uchiha Chiyo's banquet speaks volumes about the problem."

The earthen platform, holding the intelligence, said:

"This wedding celebration of Uchiha Chiyo is clearly just an excuse."

"The meeting a few days before the wedding is the key point. I think it's Konoha's way of putting pressure on those smaller villages."

The Raikage tapped his fingers on the table: "These small villages pose no threat. Even if they all surrendered to Konoha, they wouldn't cause much trouble."

"Yes." Tsuchikage first affirmed Raikage's statement, then continued:

"As long as Iwagakure and Kirigakure remain unmoved, we still have a chance."

“Even if they were allies before, they can’t always be allies.”

Tsuchitai is absolutely right. If they form an alliance with Konoha after it becomes too powerful, Konoha might just annex their village in the future.

"Perhaps some ninja villages have already gotten impatient and will contact us," Tsuchitai analyzed.

Right at this moment.

"Knock knock knock..."

An ANBU member knocked on the door and entered: "Lord Raikage, Lord Tsuchidai, someone wants to see you."

Tu Tai's eyes lit up: "Who?"

An official presented a scroll, and after the earthen platform was opened, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Huh? What kind of force is this?"

Then he continued reading and exclaimed, "What!?"

"Space-time sealing technology!?"

Tu Tai exclaimed in surprise, and Raikage also leaned over.

After all, the biggest threat to Konoha was the Flying Thunder God Technique of the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze.

Tsuchida quickly relayed the information to the Raikage, while he himself questioned the Anbu.

Where are the other party?

"It's already been brought to the lounge."

The Dark Side is clearly intelligent; they know how important space-time sealing technology is to them, and they've already made arrangements.

After reading the intelligence, the Raikage was also somewhat excited.

He and Tu Tai exchanged a glance, both seeing joy in each other's eyes.

"Raikage, you don't need to rush to see them. I'll go and find out what they're up to."

After calming down, Tu Tai took the blame upon himself.

The Raikage also let out a sigh of relief. He was indeed not as good at thinking as Tsuchida, so it was no problem to let Tsuchida go.

"Then go ahead and see if it's true or not."

"Yes!"

……

In the rest room of the Hidden Cloud Village.

A small old man with one eye covered, wearing a black cloak, and limping on one leg was sitting in a seat drinking tea.

It was Victor who had run away from the Valley Country.

Although the Shell organization has many bases, not many of them are openly profitable.

With their base in the Valley Country destroyed, the Shell organization has lost a significant amount of revenue.

Without funds and resources, even the Otsutsuki clan faces many inconveniences in doing many things.

Moreover, Cixian is only good at three tricks.

Victor was also paying close attention to the battle between Jigen and Chiyo.

However, he was busy running away at the time and couldn't go to check.

But now Cixian can't be contacted, while Qianyao is still preparing for his wedding.

It's obvious that either Jigen lost, or the match ended in a draw, and Qianyao escaped.

Regardless of the outcome, it's bad news for Victor.

Jigen's identity is mysterious; Victor is unaware that he is Isshiki Otsutsuki.

But the techniques that Tzu-hsien presented were genuine.

Regardless, he still had to continue the experiment, since it concerned his own interests.

Just as I was thinking, the door suddenly opened.

Tutai entered with two secret agents.

"Nice to meet you, I am Tutai."

"I am Victor, and I work for Shenmu Medical Equipment Company."

Victor bowed, his tone neither humble nor arrogant.

[Shenmu Medical Equipment Company?]

Tutai quickly went through the information in his mind and realized that it was a very familiar high-end medical device company, and some of the equipment in their medical department was even from this company.

Victor didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "Konoha covets our medical equipment technology and has already launched a surprise attack on our experimental base."

"We are no match for Konoha, so we have no choice but to relocate."

"Now that Konoha is powerful, the only safe place to do business is Kumogakure."

A fleeting look of doubt crossed Tsuchitai's eyes, after all, Konoha had not made any large-scale personnel mobilizations.

There's only one possibility: the elites launched a surprise attack on Shenmu Medical Equipment Company.

What technology could possibly warrant Konoha traveling such a long distance to attack this company?

Could it be a spacetime sealing technology?

Regardless of whether it's true or not, now that they've come over, we can't let them go.

"Do you sometimes have spatial sealing technology?"

Victor gave a smug smile:

"of course."
