Chapter 200 Target Locked, The Show Begins
Faced with Kakashi's interrogation, Juzo Biwa weakly tugged at the corners of his mouth.
"Hehe, I just wanted to settle a personal grudge. I apologize for using you guys."
But in reality, his fingers were stained with the blood he had just spat out, and he was writing something on his executioner's blade, stroke by stroke.
The blood-absorbing effect of the decapitation sword was used to its fullest extent at this moment; the bloodline limit was written on it, and it disappeared without a trace in no time.
These were all taught to him by Shiba Kiyokawa before he left, which can be considered as making the best use of his weapons.
The White Zetsu's surveillance was all-pervasive. Even now, after Black Zetsu and Tobi have left, several White Zetsu still remain around Kakashi, keeping watch.
So what Juzo Biwa said is no longer important.
Because he had successfully conveyed the message "you are being watched" to Kakashi.
Of course, if he had just discovered that Yagura Karatachi was indeed being manipulated by illusions, then he should have had a more complicated task.
Shiba Kiyokawa also arranged more backup plans for him.
However, it's all being wasted right now.
If Yagura Karatachi wasn't manipulated, then this play must continue.
Shiba Kiyokawa knew that Black Zetsu wouldn't let this go, and accordingly, he was also plotting against Kirigakure, which was under Black Zetsu's control.
Kakashi's expression changed slightly as he looked at what the other person had written on the blade.
"What danger is Lin in? Why can't you explain it clearly now? What exactly are you on guard against?"
Despite realizing there might be unseen surveillance, Kakashi still anxiously questioned his teammates loudly because it concerned them.
To this, Juzo Biwa simply gave a weak smile.
He can't answer that question.
He was nothing more than a tool forced into his work.
So he could only continue reading according to the script he had been given beforehand.
"Hehe, you don't need to rush, young Minato disciple. You don't need to deliberately seek out information, because the information will soon come to you on its own."
No matter where you are, information about the person you're worried about will soon come knocking on your door. You can wait and see if you don't believe me.
Kakashi gritted his teeth in hatred.
Can the riddle teller just leave?!
But this is the best way to deal with White Zetsu's surveillance.
The White Zetsu, hiding underground, successfully overheard the entire conversation between the two.
As an ordinary White Zetsu with little combat power, he didn't dare to surface to check the expressions of the two.
As a low-level White Zetsu with limited intelligence, he lacked analytical abilities and simply instinctively felt that these conversations seemed to have little value.
So he sealed these memories away, packaged them up and uploaded them to the White Zetsu network, without specifically sending a warning to Fei and Black Zetsu.
White Zetsu with high intelligence are rare, and Black Zetsu doesn't have many either. Otherwise, he wouldn't have to put up with Tobi, that unreliable guy, nagging him about poop every now and then.
So no one noticed that Kakashi's mindset had already undergone some changes without him realizing it during this process!
Back to the present, when the elite troops of the Hidden Mist Division followed the directions to a cliff in the wilderness, they saw only Nohara Rin's thin figure standing alone in the bleak cold wind.
"Is this the container we're looking for? Weren't there supposed to be enemies? Why can't we see them?"
So many strange things have happened today that doubts are starting to emerge even within the Hidden Mist Division.
"A medical ninja from Konoha has appeared alone in this remote place, as if she was deliberately waiting for us to come looking for her! What's going on?"
And didn't we say before that we needed to be prepared for battle? Where is the enemy? Are we really just dealing with this little girl?
The hot-tempered Yagura Karatachi was just framed and dragged away before he could get revenge. Now he's seething with anger and everything seems wrong to him.
As it turned out, by sheer chance, he actually managed to make the sixth squad leader, who had seized command, nervous and sweat profusely.
He was also confused.
Why did the mysterious person who took Lin away disappear?
The other party took Lin away, but then did nothing to hand her over to Wuyin. What exactly does this mysterious troublemaker want?
The Black Zetsu in the shadows was equally baffled.
Most importantly, the short period of time when the mysterious person took Lin away was completely missing from Black Zetsu's records!
He didn't know what exactly happened during that time.
At this moment, Black Zetsu could only console himself.
"It's alright. That person might not even know we're secretly watching them. It could just be a coincidence."
But in reality, Shiba Kiyokawa knew all too well.
After leaving Nohara Rin, he appeared in the nearby mountains and forests, waving his hand to melt several ice mirrors, revealing two people hidden inside who were completely integrated with the environment.
It was Kakuzu and Chihiro, the commander of the reconnaissance battalion.
The two reported in turn.
"Every member of the newly arrived Mist Village unit has a heart; I haven't encountered any of those heartless oddballs from before."
"The Byakugan indicates that only the leader of the Kirigakure ANBU captain has some unusual chakra, as if he has something extra on his body. The others are all normal, and there are no traces of genjutsu manipulation."
"Okay." Shiba Kiyokawa nodded.
In this round of confrontation, he seemed to have done nothing, but in fact he had quietly dismantled the opponent's script and at the same time probed out the truly valuable target!
"It seems we need to change our target. Yagura Karatachi is no longer the primary target; the Kirigakure ANBU captain who has shown abnormalities is the new one."
While Black Zetsu is currently focusing all his attention on Obito, Rin, and Kakashi, Shiba Kiyokawa plans to dismantle the foundation upon which they will continue to control Kirigakure!
He originally thought that the foundation would be Yagura Karatachi, but now it seems that it belongs to someone else.
Fortunately, with his provocation, these malignant tumors hidden inside the fog will eventually be forced to be exposed one by one!
Shiba Kiyokawa was very patient and not in a hurry, because he believed that Black Zetsu would continue to persevere.
Because with Nagato out of control, Obito was their only hope.
After rescuing Rin, the Hidden Mist ninja knocked her unconscious and were preparing to take her back.
At this moment, Afei, who was hiding in the shadows, also asked Hei Jue a question.
"Should we continue with the plan? There's clearly someone stirring things up in the shadows, and we haven't caught the rat yet. Continuing would be too risky."
Although Ah Fei is usually unreliable, he is clear-headed in crucial moments.
Their greatest advantage was originally their ability to remain hidden behind the scenes, but now, the enemy seems to be even better at hiding than they are.
But just as Shiba Kiyokawa had predicted, Black Zetsu was already determined to go down a dark path.
"The plan continues! And the pace must be accelerated! Regardless of whether anyone interferes, Obito's transformation is imperative!"
That idiot who's obsessed with girls won't get anywhere! I'm fed up with him nagging about Nohara Rin five times a day, it's even more disgusting than you nagging about pooping all the time!
"As long as Obito understands Madara's will, everything will be alright!"
Seeing that Hei Jue was determined to do his own thing and couldn't be persuaded, A Fei stopped trying to stop him.
However, recently they have been led by the nose by a mysterious troublemaker and have done too many extra things, which has aroused more and more doubts and opposition within the Fog Shadow Dark Division.
"Why rush the Three-Tailed Plan? Is now really the right time?"
"Why must we use that Konoha girl of unknown origin as a vessel?"
"Are we really just going to leave the loquat Juzo we encountered before unattended? Who gave those orders?"
"Konoha is clearly on alert. Shisui and Kakashi both went out recently. Is the plan to bypass the entire war zone and send the Tailed Beasts to Konoha in the rear still reliable at this time?"
The adverse effects of the sudden death of the Third Mizukage are becoming increasingly apparent as the situation gradually descends into chaos!
Because this script was originally designed by Madara Uchiha. As the first screenwriter and chief director, Madara naturally tailored the script based on the premise that he was still in control of the Third Mizukage.
But now that the director has died suddenly, the premise is no longer there, and there are many external interferences, the progress of the script is naturally facing difficulties everywhere.
Faced with increasing and more incisive internal criticism, all Afei could do was mobilize more hidden White Zetsu to cover up and suppress the attacks.
However, every action leaves a trace!
During this process, Shiba Kiyokawa, who was hiding in the shadows, finally managed to lock down one corrupt element after another buried in the Kirigakure team!
Black Zetsu was ready, and Shiba Kiyokawa achieved his goal.
Both sides had reached their initial agreements.
Everything is ready, and the show is about to begin!
