"...As expected, there's something fishy. Good thing I watched Cautious Hero in my previous life."
In less than two days, Izayoi, along with his Shadow Clone, monitoring the Land of Fire, discovered something amiss.
Because he saw a familiar figure.
This figure, during his days in the Land of Rivers, he had glimpsed once with his Tenseigan in the neighboring Land of Rain.
Remember the first website domain š„šØššš.šš š
It was none other than Jiraiya's disciple, the angel of Rain Hidden Village, the White Tiger of the AkatsukiāKonan.
She was riding a sharp-beaked bird, entering the Land of Fire, heading towards a certain direction.
Since Nagato's health had been deteriorating, Konan had gradually been spending less time away from Rain Hidden Village.
After the Akatsuki members were all gathered, she had not carried out any missions alone, always staying in Rain Hidden Village, helping Nagato with affairs and taking care of Nagato's health.
After the start of the original story, wherever Konan was, there would definitely be Nagato or Deva Path Pain.
Now that Konan appeared in the Land of Fire, she definitely wasn't here for tourism.
Izayoi had a premonition that she was likely here for him.
Half a day later, Izayoi's guess was confirmed.
Fifty kilometers northwest of the Black Market, on a small hill, Konan leaped off the back of the Yatagarasu, her body showing a large number of cracks, and then pieces of paper detached from her body, forming two wings on her back, like an angel descending, landing in the forest below.
The Yatagarasu also swooped down, landing steadily, turning into a huge cloud of white smoke.
When the white smoke dissipated, a large tree made of white paper appeared.
Then the tree automatically colored itself from bottom to top, and in a few blinks of an eye, it seemed to turn into a real tree, perfectly integrated with the forest.
In the Tenseigan's perspective, the tree was covered in blue Chakra, and a large number of tadpole-shaped runes emerged from this Chakra, creating a barrier that isolated perception.
Even Kagura Mind's Eye probably wouldn't be able to capture this Chakra.
But it couldn't stop Izayoi's Tenseigan.
In Izayoi's eyes, there were eight Chakras inside the tree, namely Konan and Nagato, as well as the Six Paths of Pain.
"Hidden in the mouth of the big bird, so that's how they move, I thought it was summoned by Konan's lip studs."
Izayoi, who had watched the whole process, suddenly understood.
Immediately, Izayoi couldn't help but complain: "The strongest people in the current Shinobi World are dispatched personally, are they thinking too highly of me?"
But then, Izayoi fell silent.
A slit opened in the tree, and Deva Path Pain walked out.
His figure floated into the air, and Deva Path Pain came to a cliff.
After a while, the space next to him suddenly twisted, and a black hole the size of a fist appeared.
Two twisted figures flew out of the black hole.
It was Obito Uchiha, and the Filial Son... Itachi Uchiha, whom Izayoi had seen a few times at the school gate when he was in the first grade.
Looking at the lineup enacting a world-famous scene, Izayoi couldn't help but offer his sincerest greetings in his native tongue, "Top your lungs."
The Super-Kage Gatekeeperāthe Six Paths of Pain, Itachi Uchiha who developed the Mangekyo Sharingan to its peak and had countless trump cards, and Obito Uchiha, who could use Kamui infinitely without fear of blindnessā¦ Even someone at Ånoki's level, the pinnacle of the Five Kage, would surely die if targeted by such a combination.
These three individuals could contend against the combined forces of the Five Kage.
If they could put aside their mutual distrust, even the Five Kage wouldn't be their match.
To use such a lineup against him, what virtue or ability did he possess?
At that moment, Izayoi heard the voice of a Shadow Clone in his ear, speaking in Mandarin, "Look, there's movement at the Black Market too."
Hearing this, Izayoi immediately shifted his gaze to the Black Market.
He saw the middle-aged man in the suit had already been pierced through the body by a tree branch.
Then, a white creature transformed into the middle-aged man.
"The Mayfly Technique, even the Tenseigan can't detect it," Izayoi said, his expression turning serious.
"His Impersonation Technique is also flawless; no wonder it's the Shinobi World's strongest Transformation Technique," the Shadow Clone said. "If the Tenseigan completes its second awakening or final evolution and still can't see through it, then we must give the Kagura Mind's Eye the ability to perceive good and evil."
Hearing this, Izayoi's face showed contemplation.
His mind was already considering what other abilities in the Shinobi World could expose the Impersonation Technique besides the Kagura Mind's Eye.
Ideally, something that could also break the Mayfly Technique!
After all, what made Black and White Zetsu most fearsome wasn't the Impersonation Technique or spiritual possession, but the Mayfly Technique, which allowed them to ignore barriers and move at high speed, merging with the earth, grass, and trees.
It was a technique that even Six Paths-level experts couldn't detect.
The thought of being watched by such eyes in the dark made Izayoi feel disgusted.
But for the moment, Izayoi couldn't think of a solution.
So, he temporarily put the idea aside.
The Tenseigan glanced at the White Zetsu clone inside the Black Market and the strongest combination on the cliff. Izayoi chuckled, "I originally wanted to give you a greeting gift, but on second thought, I shouldn't waste my effort. I'll just let you stand guard here for a while."
This was also good news!
Such blatant guarding indicated that Black Zetsu didn't know about the existence of the Tenseigan, or didn't know its abilities.
This was Izayoi's advantage.
How could Izayoi throw away this advantage?
"Fortunately, I prepared a backup plan, or else the loss would have been great this time. I'll remember this debt, and in a while, I'll return a great gift to you."
Izayoi took one last look in the direction of the strongest combination, then dispelled the Shadow Clone and returned to the cave to take Zabuza Momochi away.
...
Time came to three days later, as agreed.
At dusk, Itachi Uchiha looked at the setting sun, with only the northern hemisphere visible, and couldn't help but ask Obito Uchiha, who was also watching the sunset beside him, "Has the target not appeared yet?"
"You'll have to ask Zetsu to know that," Obito Uchiha said faintly.
Hearing this, Black and White Zetsu, with half their bodies hidden in the ground, White Zetsu said, "The things have already been delivered to the Shadow Clone, but that guy hasn't shown up yet, and the Shadow Clone is fine."
"Exposed?"
"It's not impossible." Black Zetsu said, his mood even heavier.
If that mysterious person is really a descendant of Hamura, it means that the purity of his Byakugan is extremely high, and it is not surprising that the range of his farsight exceeds the upper limit of the Hyuga Clan.
But they have kept a distance of fifty kilometers, and today they often hide in barriers and different dimensions. Can they still be exposed?
This is even more outrageous than the Kagura Mind's Eye of the Uzumaki Clan.
"You guys wait another day, Itachi and I will increase the distance." Deva Path Pain said lightly, then turned and left.
Itachi Uchiha got up and followed closely behind.
Obito Uchiha also hid in the Kamui space.
Only Black and White Zetsu, using the Mayfly Technique and White Zetsu Shadow Clone, monitored the Black Market while expanding the scope of investigation to see if that person was hiding nearby.
Then another day passed, and the strongest combination, still not seeing anyone coming, left with different feelings.
If they couldn't catch that person this time, it would be even more difficult next time.
With this level of perception, they are already at a disadvantage before the battle even begins.
...
Six days later, in a forest in the Land of Fire, very close to the border.
"Lord Izayoi, this is what you wanted. It cost a total of 29,870,000 Ryo."
Haku, who had just returned to the Land of Fire from the Land of Rivers, unloaded the three large scrolls behind him and said respectfully to Izayoi.
"Not bad, you don't need to return the remaining money, consider it a reward for you."
Izayoi used gravity to take the scroll, then soared into the sky and left.
Watching his departing figure, Haku and Zabuza Momochi, worried that he would go back on his word, both breathed a sigh of relief.
"Lord Zabuza, where are we going next?" Haku asked, supporting Zabuza Momochi, who had recovered a little and could barely stand up with a cane.
"To rob from the rich and give to the poor." Zabuza Momochi said in a deep voice, his eyes gleaming, as if he had opened the door to a new world.
Demon Zabuza, who had a lesson from Izayoi, has grown!
