Chapter 64: And so... The Mizukage guard the Water himself


    What Akihara Kagura had said actually makes sense.


    The Mizukage of the Mist Vige wouldn''t bother with such trivial matters.


    Most of the time, the Hokage of the Konoha Vige stays in the Hokage''s office handling official duties. The Mizukage must also be extremely busy daily. How could they possibly have the time to float on the sea everyday checking ships?


    However, Hatake Kakashi believes that even for a Jonin of the Mist Vige, in a sea environment unfavorable for theirbat, it would not necessarily be an easy problem to solve.


    Once they fail to kill the opponent, and the opponent escapes, it bes troublesome.


    Akihara Kagura''s Wood Release techniques also suffer a certain degree of weakening at sea. Even if he could use the Wood Dragon technique, such a major disturbance would definitely attract the attention of the Mist Vige.


    "The world of ninjas is inherently dangerous."


    Akihara Kagura rarely says something serious, but his next sentence reveals his true nature, "If all else fails, we can just return the way we came. After all, when we left, Lord Danzo went to see the Third Hokage. It''s likely that soon the entire ninja world will hear about the rogue ninja warrant for Uchiha Obito. He can''t continue to hide; we''ll find him sooner orter."


    "Shimura Danzo, that guy is really"


    Hatake Kakashi is somewhat helpless, realizing the urgency of time.


    "I''ll go find a boat."


    Uchiha Itachi, using his Sharingan to hypnotize, controls a sea captain and takes them towards the Land of Water.


    Normally, the Mizukage of the Mist Vige wouldn''t be so idle, unless this Mizukage is not the real person in power.


    Unfortunately,


    The current Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, is just a puppet controlled by others.


    Land of Water.


    In the office of the Mizukage in the Mist Vige.


    Uchiha Obito puts on his mask again, sitting in the position of the Fourth Mizukage, holding a stack of Mist ninja files, slowly selecting the pawns he wants from them.


    The Fourth Mizukage Yagura stands beside Uchiha Obito, quiet as a wooden mannequin, seemingly oblivious to Uchiha Obito''s actions.


    Originally, during the war, the Mist Vige imnted the Three-Tails into Nohara Rin, which directly led to Rin choosing to be killed by Kakashi. Plus, being isted from the ninja maind and possessing two of the Tailed Beasts, the Three-Tails and the Six-Tails, Uchiha Obito simply took control of the Fourth Mizukage of the Mist Vige.


    Using the Mizukage''s influence, he then controlled the entire vige.


    For many years, the Mist Vige adhered to the belief that only those who emerge from ughter are strong, even including the graduation exams of the Ninja Academy, which involved killing each other.


    It was only stoppedpletely when a student named Momochi Zabuza killed all the graduates of that year.


    However


    The Mist Vige still remains unchanged in its ''Blood Mist'' status, where superiors oppressed by higher-ups enforce cruel high-pressure management policies on their subordinates.


    The Land of Water is also full of contradictions.


    Within the Land of Water, the self-proimed powerful and war-loving Kaguya n never obey the orders of the Mist Vige. They arbitrarily ughter ordinary civilians, causing both the entire Land of Water and the ninjas of the Mist Vige to detest the bloodline ninjas.


    Uchiha Obito is too indifferent to care about this.


    After controlling the Fourth Mizukage, Karatachi Yagura, Uchiha Obito never considered governing the Mist Vige. He merely uses the vige as a temporary ce to keep the Three-Tails and Six-Tails beasts and asionally searches for powerful ninjas within the vige to use as pawns for his future Eye of the Moon n.


    To Uchiha Obito, the Mist Vige is the source of Rin''s death. It''s already fortunate that he hasn''t destroyed the vige; how could he possibly allow it to thrive?


    The most important thing is...


    Uchiha Obito is not good at these things...


    "Hmph, another bunch of useless ones."


    Uchiha Obito, after reviewing a pile of ninja files, carelessly tossed them to the ground: "I''ve been away for so many days, and only Hoshigaki Kisame''s strength is still somewhat eptable."


    This is the only person Uchiha Obito is satisfied with.


    Because Kisame is decisive in action, never discounts the orders from above, and possesses the powerful bloodline of the Hoshigaki n, making him extremely formidable inbat.


    "..."


    Yagura nced at the files thrown to the ground by Uchiha Obito and remained silently standing in ce without any action.


    "..."


    Uchiha Obito''s fingers tapped lightly on the table, again feeling anxious and disturbed about revealing his identity in the Konoha Vige. Kakashi, knowing he is still alive, will definitely search everywhere for his whereabouts.


    The higher-ups of the Konoha...


    Will surely issue a warrant for his arrest.


    The only good news is that a kid named Akihara Kagura agreed to join him, but the kid''s arrogant and overbearing attitude is like that of a madman. He hasn''t even chosen to directly be a trustworthy rogue ninja, just verbally expressing his willingness to be his inside man in the Konoha.


    What a joke!


    Does he need an inside man in the Konoha Vige?


    Even if he reveals his identity, entering the Konoha Vige would be a walk in the park for him. If he wants any information, he can just have Zetsu secretly investigate!


    "Something''s happened."


    The figure of a pitcher nt monster slowly emerged from the ground.


    "What is it?"


    Uchiha Obito looked at it in surprise.


    The entire Mist Vige was under his control. The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, was the most powerful person in the Mist Vige. Could there be any problems here?


    "A clone of White Zetsu brought a message..."


    The white half-face of the pitcher nt monster mechanically conveyed the unsettling news: "The Konoha Vige has issued a wanted order for you in the ninja world. When it went to the Konoha Vige to secretly gather information, it discovered that the Konoha Vige had again sent people to the Land of Water to track you down!"


    "I thought it was something serious..."


    Uchiha Obito remained calm, sitting in his original spot, and snorted coldly: "I had anticipated this. Let it keep an eye on the Akatsuki''s situation to prevent them from having second thoughts..."


    After Uchiha Obito finished speaking, he turned to look at the motionless Fourth Mizukage Yagura next to him andmanded, "Yagura, order the Mist Anbu to strengthen their guard. If you encounter Konoha Vige spies whoe to gather intelligence, just kill them."


    "Ordinary ninjas might not be able to do it..."


    The white half-face of the pitcher nt monster couldn''t help butugh, speaking slowly: "The one who ising is Hatake Kakashi..."


    "Kakashi, that waste..."


    Uchiha Obito''s tone was full of disdain.


    The white half-face of the pitcher nt monsterughed even more joyously, continuing to add: "There''s also Akihara Kagura and Uchiha Itachi... Akihara Kagura''s Wood Release is not easy to deal with! You almost fell into his hands yourself!"


    "When was this information received?"


    Uchiha Obito''s heart skipped a beat, and he looked at the pitcher nt monster with dissatisfaction: "When you speak, don''t just tell half of it!"


    "Three days ago..."


    The ck half-face of the pitcher nt monster spoke hoarsely: "They must have set out at least three days ago, they might be close to the Land of Water by now..."


    "It''s not a big problem."


    Uchiha Obito thought of Akihara Kagura being his spy, and his mind gradually calmed down. The teaming to track him down immediately seemed less difficult to handle.


    The problem is...


    Akihara Kagura didn''t know that the Mist Vige was his, the boss''s, territory.


    If he had known that the Konoha Vige would send people to infiltrate the Mist Vige in the Land of Water to track him down, he should have discussed it with Akihara Kagura, his spy, to prevent such an unforeseen situation from happening...


    However...


    That kid might not necessarily be able to stop the Konoha Vige from sending people to infiltrate here.


    He''ll have a good talk with that kidter. The Konoha Vige has issued his wanted order, and sooner orter, there will be a chance to use that kid...


    "Yagura."


    After pondering for a while, Uchiha Obito gave his orders to the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura: "You lead a team personally to seal off the coast and hunt for Konoha Vige spies. No outsiders are allowed into the Land of Water!"
