Chapter 117: Samsara Eye! The external war is over, it’s time to turn internally!
Under the drizzle, on the muddy ground behind the town, a ninja's body lay in a pool of blood. In the distance, there was a red-haired boy, who was watching the scene with horror and trembling on his face.
"Nagato, Lord Ya is here!"
With Konan's scream, Nagato, who was lying limp in the mud, was brought back to reality. At this moment, his eyes were filled with endless fear and panic.
"The remnants of the ninja..."
When Uchiha Ye and Uchiha Mikoto arrived, they suddenly saw this scene. However, when Mikoto thought that it was the remnant forces in the Rain Country, her pupils suddenly shrank.
"Ye! It's a Konoha ninja!"
At this time, Uchiha Mikoto's face looked extremely ugly, because the body of the ninja lying in a pool of blood was wearing a Konoha forehead protector on his head.
However, when Xiaonan heard this, he panicked and hurriedly defended himself.
"No, Sister Mikoto, Lord Ye, it's not what you think. This ninja suddenly appeared and tried to rob us, and even... Then Nagato protected me..."
At this moment, Xiaonan's crying voice, the panic in her eyes, the messy corners of her clothes, and the scene in front of her seemed to be very clear.
A Konoha ninja wanted to ravage people from other countries in the tyranny of war, but was...
Seeing this scene, Uchiha Ye also looked a little unhappy. Konoha Ninja! And the scene in front of him!
Uchiha Madara!
Isn't this the same thing as in the original work, using the crisis to draw out Nagato's power, and at the same time this time it's Konoha's ninja who's replaced him, so Nagato can't follow him back to Konoha.
You can even test him!
"Night! Nagato's eyes!"
At this time, Uchiha Mikoto lowered her voice with a solemn look on her face, and Uchiha Ye also saw the exposed eye of Nagato, who was gasping for breath and in a state of fear.
The eyes were strangely purple with wavy patterns, and at the same time, there was a strong remnant of chakra, which made Uchiha Mikoto involuntarily open the three-magatama Sharingan, and she could still feel a strong force.
"Is it an unknown eye technique!?"
Uchiha Mikoto did not know the detailed appearance of the Rinnegan, so when she saw it for the first time, her first reaction was an unknown bloodline.
However, Uchiha Ye pretended to be shocked and blurted out:
"These eyes are... Could it be that the legend is true?!"
Uchiha Ye's shocked look now made Uchiha Mikoto even more shocked. She had never seen Ye lose his composure like this.
Even when he faced Hanzo the Salamander, he had never lost his composure like this.
Sensing the person in the dark, Uchiha Ye suppressed his shock and said in a low voice: "It's unbelievable, the three legendary eye techniques actually exist."
There was such a description in the records of the Uchiha clan, so it is true that he was aware of this.
But Uchiha Mikoto didn't know that, because she was a real Uchiha, and all she read were ninjutsu scrolls related to becoming stronger.
"Three major pupil techniques!?"
Although Uchiha Mikoto was not clear about this record, she had heard of the three major eye techniques rumored in the ninja world, the Byakugan, the Sharingan, and the legendary Rinnegan.
When she thought of this, Uchiha Mikoto was even more shocked, "How is this possible!"
However, while Mikoto was shocked, Uchiha Ye had already reacted and was observing the situation calmly.
"Konan, how did this ninja appear?"
"Master Ye, it is..."
As Konan supported Nagato and frantically told him everything that had happened, she was now really panicked.
Can Uchiha Yai forgive them for the crime of killing Konoha ninjas?
"No! No!"
It seemed that he had discovered something. After checking in the rain to find no traps, Uchiha Ye stepped forward and looked at the Konoha ninja who had died tragically with a serious expression.
"The deceased was suddenly hit by a very strong force. This force was very strange, like a wind-style ninjutsu that used all-round air pressure to crush him to death. His internal organs were all shattered..."
After seeing the tragic state of the corpse, Uchiha Mikoto instantly analyzed the cause of death.
But Uchiha Ye was very clear, thinking to himself, is this the ability of the Samsara Eye? It is indeed amazing.
but!
The next moment, Uchiha Ye had a gloomy face, holding a Senbon in his hand, and directly lifted the tongue of the dead man's open mouth.
When seeing this scene, Uchiha Mikoto's pupils shrank and she blurted out in shock: "Someone from the Root!"
Uchiha Ye nodded calmly and said, "The seal of eradicating tongue disasters, only the people at the root of the village possess this curse seal. I have only heard of it before, but I didn't expect to see it today."
The Uchiha clan naturally has aversion to the Root because they are not on good terms with Danzo Shimura, and another reason is the Root's system.
"Would someone from the Root appear here for no reason? And they attacked the two children. What is their purpose?!"
While Uchiha Ye was speaking in a deep voice, he had already finished examining the corpse. He secretly sighed in his heart that he was worthy of being Madara-sama, as he had sent another White Zetsu clone.
At the same time, he knew that this person in the dark had deliberately created not only a Konoha ninja, but also the so-called Root man. Naturally, he did not simply want to force out Nagato's Rinnegan ability.
It is not to create a rift between them, because if they want to achieve this, they can just get a Konoha ninja, there is no need to go through the trouble of getting a Root ninja.
It was just a side effect of using it to prevent Nagato from going back to Konoha with him, there were other reasons as well.
"This is……"
After taking out a sealed ninjutsu scroll from his arms, Uchiha Ye showed a look of sudden realization. It seemed that this was what he wanted to do.
“Ye, this is a root-encrypted intelligence scroll, it’s very difficult to decipher, and in this situation!?”
Although he hated the Root, it was still a part of Konoha after all, and Konan and Nagato were outsiders no matter what.
Uchiha Mikoto's solemn expression was reminding Uchiha Ye not to make any mistakes at this critical moment.
However, Uchiha Ye slowly stood up, looked at Nagato and Konan who had already been frightened, and shook his head:
"No! Why would the roots appear here..."
While Uchiha Ye said this, he secretly gave Uchiha Mikoto a look, and then he squatted on the ground and made gestures to Nagato and Konan without saying a word.
"This is!"
The frightened Nagato didn't notice it at all, but the meticulous Konan saw the gesture that Uchiha Ye made to her. She was immediately startled, and then she reacted and hurriedly pulled Nagato.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of breaking air, and Uchiha Mikoto instantly opened the seal on her wrist.
A rain of shurikens instantly shot towards the woods on one side. At the same time, Uchiha Ye himself turned into a bolt of lightning and rushed into the woods.
"Not good! I've been discovered!"
Instantly, two people wearing root masks emerged from the woods. However, when they were discovered, they did not panic, but said indifferently: "The Uchiha clan and the Rain Country ninjas have murdered ninjas from the same village without authorization. Now you are..."
The cold and emotionless voice suddenly stopped, blood splattered everywhere, and the vision became blurred. At this moment, the two Root ninjas looked at the scene in front of them in disbelief.
At the same time, this scene also stunned Konan and Nagato who were far away. In their eyes, two masked ninjas suddenly rushed out of the forest.
However, they shouted "Get down!" and stabbed each other with knives.
Blood splattered in the rain, the bright red blood mixed with mud and water flowed down, the two Root ninjas' pupils were filled with disbelief.
"Sharingan... How is this possible!"
"You were under an illusion from the very beginning."
At some point, Uchiha Ye's indifferent figure appeared on a big tree, staring at the two Root members with three magatama spinning in his eye sockets.
From the very beginning he sensed the presence of someone in the woods, and then his real body came to the woods, while what the two were staring at outside was just his shadow clone left behind.
Because they were hiding in the woods and were mentally negligent, the two of them fell into his Sharingan illusion without realizing it.
When rushing out, thinking that Uchiha who turned into lightning was the target, he drew out his ninja sword and stabbed at him, and at the same time, the illusion was broken!
What came into view were their own people.
"How...how is it possible...we didn't even look into your eyes..."
The two Root Ninjas who were stabbing each other were full of reluctance, but Uchiha Ye standing on the tree trunk sneered:
"Are you sure you can dodge my Sharingan!?"
As the cold voice echoed, the two Root figures fell down. At this moment, their eyes suddenly froze. They saw the falling raindrops and the pools of water around them.
The blood-red three-magatama Sharingan was reflected in all the raindrops and puddles. The two understood everything before they died.
They did not look directly at the Sharingan, but the Sharingan still cast an illusion on the two of them through the reflection of the ubiquitous rain.
"How can the Sharingan... be so powerful..."
The two root figures fell into the mud with a plop.
"Ye! Has your Sharingan reached this point?!"
Uchiha Mikoto was even more shocked. This kind of eye power had already surpassed that of her grandfather, Elder Setsuna.
Most of the Uchiha with three magatama are similar. Only a very small number of Uchiha with strong pupil power are exceptionally powerful, giving people the feeling that the opponent's three magatama can defeat ordinary ones.
"From the beginning, the Root wanted to use Konan and Nagato to lure us here, but they never thought that Nagato would kill them instead..."
As Uchiha Ye analyzed the situation, he also unlocked the detonating tags hidden around, proving that this was a trap.
"Mikoto, take Konan and Nagato back to town first! I'll take care of this place."
Looking at this situation, it was obvious that there was something weird, especially the roots were clearly targeting them.
"Understood!"
Uchiha Mikoto didn't hesitate at all and took the two frightened people away from the back mountain. After Uchiha Ye carefully explored the surroundings, he began to look for useful information on the three bodies.
Forbidden Technique: Demon Gera Technique
In the dark, Uchiha Ye remained silent, a diamond-shaped mark appeared on his palm, and he began to devour the three corpses transformed by White Zetsu.
When he found no information, Uchiha Ye used fire escape to erase all traces of the place and then left.
Under the continuous drizzle, in the back mountain where there was no trace of anything, a pale human face slowly emerged from the tree trunk that Uchiha Ye had stepped on before.
"Madara-sama's junior is really outstanding. He actually discovered the person hiding in the dark in advance. He is really perceptive."
White Zetsu made a funny sound, then revealed a weird smile, and three forehead protectors and ninja marks separated from his body.
"Haha, this is not fake, it just adds fuel to the fire..."
The sound became weaker and weaker, and White Zetsu's figure disappeared, leaving only the three forehead protectors representing the roots and some traces.
……
Konoha, hidden in the dark roots.
"The war is over. Lord Mito has been getting older lately. Konoha's most powerful ultimate weapon must not be associated with the evil Uchiha!"
In the dim room, Danzo Shimura spoke angrily, and in front of him were Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu.
"Well, it is indeed as Danzo said. Once the most powerful weapon is divided into two, can it still be considered the ultimate weapon? Can it still deter other countries?"
Utane Koharu also nodded in agreement, showing great dissatisfaction with splitting the Nine-Tails into two halves.
The war was over and they began to worry about the village.
"Danzo, it's too dangerous for you to do this. You should know that Tsunade has been inseparable from you at the front line. Also, you should report this matter to Hiruzen first instead of making a decision on your own."
Although Mitomon En also agreed, he frowned and looked a little worried when he saw Shimura Danzo's unauthorized actions.
However, Danzo Shimura looked at the two of them and only sneered.
"If Hiruzen doesn't agree, can the Root leave Konoha? The Root is responsible for the darkness of the village. As for danger! From the moment we become ninjas, danger is destined to accompany us for life!"
Danzo Shimura snorted coldly, and even looked down on these two old guys for not wanting to take any responsibility at all, just like Sarutobi Hiruzen.
Sarutobi Hiruzen pretended not to see the dark things happening in Konoha, but whenever something went wrong, it was the Root's problem.
Seeing the arrival of Mito Kado En and Utatane Koharu, Danzo Shimura knew that these two people came on behalf of Sarutobi Hiruzen to warn him not to go too far.
"Don't worry. The Rain Country is in such a mess right now, and I just leaked the information of an outsider from the whirlpool to some ambitious people."
"In the meantime, Tsunade, I've had the Root prepare a plan to lure them out. Nothing will go wrong."
After hearing Shimura Danzo's perfect plan, Mito Kado En and Utane Koharu breathed a sigh of relief. However, as the village's advisors, they still said in a deep voice:
"Danzo, although the war is over, the other three major ninja villages are still unwilling to give up, and the Root still needs to deal with some things."
Facing the two, Shimura Danzo snorted coldly, "There can only be one Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, no one can weaken the village's strongest weapon."
The three of them discussed in the dim roots and revealed their determination.
Before, they needed the power of the Senju and Uchiha because of the war. Now that the foreign war is over, it is natural for them to start developing the village.
Only if Uzumaki Kushina, an outsider, disappears reasonably in the Rain Country, then the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki will naturally belong to them.
And they were only dealing with an outsider from the beginning to the end.
