Chapter 400 I want him to watch over Konoha

The Five Kage Conference is an important meeting to convene the Five Kage to discuss the future of the ninja world. All the ninjas who can attend this meeting are important right-hand men of the Five Kage.

Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, and Shisui, the leader of the Root, are both qualified to participate in the Five Kage Conference.

But it is hard to say for others. After all, the ninjas who can participate in the Five Kage Conference are almost destined to become the core figures of their respective ninja villages.

After pondering for a moment, Jiraiya thought of a more suitable candidate:

"How about letting Kakashi participate in the Five Kage Conference? He is Naruto's team leader. If Team 7 is brought along, it can also avoid the surprise attack of the masked man."

Shisui nodded slightly, and then said:

"Kakashi is indeed a good candidate. Not only is his strength at the level of an elite ninja, but he also has a three-magatama Sharingan, which can compete with the masked man in a short period of time."

Even Shisui agreed that Kakashi would participate in the Five Kage Conference, so the two consultants naturally had no objection.

Kakashi has completed many S-level tasks in recent years. He is the leader of the younger generation. In addition, as the son of the White Night and the fourth-generation disciple, it is not impossible for him to become a Hokage in the future.

After listening to everyone's opinions, Tsunade nodded and said, "That's it. Jiraiya, Shisui, and Kakashi's team will participate in the Five Kage Conference together, and the rest of us will stay in Konoha for defense."

At this time, Shisui said, "I won't participate in the Five Kage Conference. You guys should go. I don't like to be in the limelight. I can just stay in the village."

Facing Shisui's request, Tsunade and Jiraiya thought about it and agreed to it.

Their list just now was indeed a bit inappropriate. If she, Jiraiya and Shisui all went to participate in the Five Kage Conference, there would be no powerful enough ninjas in the village.

After confirming all the candidates for the Five Kage Conference, several people discussed the itinerary plan.

Participating in the Five Kage Conference is not a trivial matter. Any problem with any details may affect the overall changes.

…

More than ten minutes later, Kakashi, who was on vacation at home, received an order from Tsunade.

When he heard that Killer Bee was attacked and the Fourth Raikage invited the leaders of the major ninja villages to attend the Five Kage Conference, Kakashi was stunned at first, and his face soon became gloomy.

He knew that the real identity of the masked man was Uchiha Obito.

It was precisely because of this that he felt distressed for his best friend's fall. He didn't understand why Obito attacked the tailed beasts and why he embarked on this road of no return.

Can he stop Obito?

Just when Kakashi was worried about this, Kushina's voice rang in the house: "Kakashi, is there anyone coming from the Hokage Building? What happened?"

After seeing Kushina's figure, Kakashi was relieved.

After Kushina returned to Konoha, she has been living in his house to teach Naruto. With Kushina's wife, he doesn't have to bear all the pressure. After all, his wife is very powerful.

Thinking of this, Kakashi told Kushina everything he knew.

After listening to this, Kushina frowned and said, "Obito actually attacked the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki. He really wants to stand on the opposite side of the entire ninja world."

"But he is usually chased by Bai Ye. What kind of courage makes him show up again? Kakashi, you have known Obito the longest. What do you think Obito thinks?"

"I don't know about this..."

Kakashi scratched his head. He didn't know what Obito was thinking.

At this time, Kushina suddenly remembered something and said to Kakashi:

"Kakashi, do you still remember that during the Chunin Exam, Orochimaru impure the First and Second Hokage, right?"

Kakashi nodded: "Of course I remember this. If it wasn't for Byakuya's action, Konoha would have no ninjas to stop the First and Second Hokage."

"But isn't Orochimaru Byakuya's subordinate? What's his relationship with the masked man?"

"Orochimaru does have some kind of cooperative relationship with Byakuya, but their relationship is not unbreakable. Orochimaru betrayed Konoha Ninja Village and his ally Danzo."

After a pause, Kushina continued:

"It's not impossible to betray Byakuya now. I recently went to the black market in the Hokage territory, and there was suddenly a bounty for Orochimaru, which was said to be issued by the Hidden Rain Village."

"Orochimaru betrayed Byakuya..."

Kashi Kakashi continued to think about this and soon came to an incredible conclusion. He said, "You mean, the reason why Orochimaru betrayed Bai Ye was because he contacted the masked man."

"And the reason why the masked man dared to attack the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki was because he relied on the Impure World Reincarnation Technique?"

Seeing that Kakashi also thought of this, Kushina nodded and said, "Yes, it is the Impure World Reincarnation Technique. We and Teacher Jiraiya are concerned about the identity of the deceased and will not use the Impure World Reincarnation Technique easily."

"But Orochimaru and Obito don't have these concerns. They can play with the souls of the dead at will."

Kakashi asked Kushina, "Then what should we do? Tell this information to Master Jiraiya?"

"As long as it doesn't involve my existence, you can do whatever you want."

Kushina didn't care whether Kakashi reported this information or not. She just didn't want to expose her own existence.

Kakashi asked puzzledly, "Master Kushina, why are you always unwilling to show up? Even if it's to hide your identity, you can tell Master Tsunade and Jiraiya."

Kushina's face changed slightly, and then she said:

"This is a deal between me and that person, you don't need to meddle in it, and if I show up in Konoha, how will Jiraiya and Tsunade deal with it?"

From Kushina's words, Kakashi heard that he had no choice.

He knew that the ninja who saved Kushina was Bai Ye, but why didn't Bai Ye let Kushina and Jiraiya meet? What secret is there?

At this time, Kakashi seemed to think of something, and his face became extremely solemn.

Kushina noticed Kakashi's expression and sighed softly:

"It seems that you still guessed the relationship between Bai Ye and Obito. Your guess is similar to mine. Bai Ye and Obito are likely not just superficially opposed. They have actually reached some kind of cooperation."

After hearing this news from Kushina, Kakashi was extremely shocked.

It was hard for him to imagine that Bai Ye, who had been fighting against the masked man, actually had some kind of cooperative relationship with the masked man, but a pile of evidence pointed to this point.

Suppressing the shock in his heart, Kakashi asked puzzledly: "With the strength of Bai Ye and Obito, they should be able to achieve their goals even if they do not cooperate with each other in secret. What do they want to do?"

"This is what I want to know..."

Kushina sighed, and then said: "The goal of Akatsuki is to make the ninja world free of war and in long-term peace. Obito doesn't look like a ninja who destroys the world."

"If both of them are for peace, why do they attack the tailed beasts in each village?"

Kakashi took a deep breath and said: "Master Kushina, this matter is too important. Can I tell Lady Tsunade?"

Kushina said with a vigilant look:

"It's better not to. Tsunade and Jiraiya may not believe us. Bai Ye has helped Konoha many times. Even I was saved by Bai Ye. If we attack Bai Ye rashly, the effect will only be counterproductive."

"If we leak the secret, we may encounter hostility from Bai Ye."

"We just need to maintain the situation as it is now. There is no need to make things complicated. Let the Konoha Ninja handle the affairs of the Konoha Village. I just want to watch Naruto grow up now."

"But Obito attacked Naruto back then." Kakashi asked puzzledly. He didn't understand why Kushina became so indifferent.

Kushina looked at Kakashi and said:

"Bai Ye will not attack Naruto. He had many chances but gave up. Although Bai Ye and Obito have reached a cooperation, I have a hunch that they will fight sooner or later."

"They are allies, but they can't be allies forever."

"Before the next war starts, let's slowly accumulate strength. Your Sharingan is the key to defeating Obito."

...

In the Root Base, Shisui, who was busy with work, welcomed an uninvited guest.

This person was none other than Orochimaru, who failed to attack Nagato. After escaping from the Rain Country, he finally decided to come to Shisui to avoid the limelight.

First, he and Shisui killed Danzo together, and their relationship was pretty good.

Second, staying with Shisui can also maintain contact with Bai Ye, so as not to become a pawn abandoned by Bai Ye.

After seeing Orochimaru, Shisui frowned:

"Orochimaru, you just attacked Nagato and betrayed the organization, why did you come to me right after? Aren't you afraid that I will join forces with Jiraiya and Tsunade to strangle you here?"

Orochimaru found a seat casually and sat down, saying calmly: "These are all orders from Lord Byakuya. He asked me to leave the Akatsuki organization. It may be related to the organization's future plans."

"Didn't Lord Byakuya tell me or tell you the specific plan?"

Shisui shook his head and said:

"I haven't received any notification from Lord Byakuya, but the masked man has attacked several Jinchūriki recently, and the Fourth Raikage is planning to convene a meeting of the Five Kages."

"Five Kages meeting?"

Orochimaru's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Convening a meeting of the Five Kages for such a small matter, the Raikage kid is really impatient, just like his father."

"However, Lord Byakuya and the masked man What are you thinking? With their strength, Killer Bee should not be able to escape. Why is that? "

"I don't know about that..."

After a slight pause, Shisui continued:

"The goal of the masked man is to collect the tailed beasts, but I always feel that Lord Bai Ye is not serious about collecting the tailed beasts. Lord Bai Ye seems to have taken the five major ninja villages in the name of hunting tailed beasts, and he doesn't really want to revive the ten-tailed beast."

"So these attacks are likely to be the masked man's unauthorized actions."

After hearing this, Orochimaru fell into deep thought, and quickly sorted out his thoughts and said:

"So that's why Bai Ye asked me to leave the Akatsuki organization early. Do you think that leader Bai Ye is planning to let us stand on the side of the five major ninja villages?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out..."

Just as Shisui and Orochimaru were lost in thought, Shisui's ring began to heat up, and soon Shisui received an order from Bai Ye.

Bai Ye's order was very simple, asking them not to show their heads recently and to lie dormant honestly.

After receiving this order, Shisui did not react much, but Orochimaru's heart was in turmoil. He had taken off the Akatsuki ring, so how did Byakuya know his exact location?

Did Shisui report it to Byakuya after stepping into the root base, or was it that Byakuya had left a backhand on him, and he had no way of noticing it yet.

After digesting Byakuya's order, Shisui looked at Orochimaru and said:

"Lord Orochimaru, please stay by my side during this period and wait for Lord Byakuya's next orders at any time. Don't even think about running around casually."

Orochimaru pretended to be calm and said:

"I originally planned to stay with you for a while, so naturally I have no plans to leave. However, I still have many experimental projects to complete. You should have a laboratory here."

"Of course..." Shisui said without thinking:

"These are cutting-edge equipment that have been purchased in recent years, but you have to find experimental materials yourself. I don't provide them here. Besides, you must not attack civilians!"

In Shisui's heart, Orochimaru was still the same scientific madman with bad records.

Orochimaru rubbed his palms and said with a smile:

"You don't have to worry about experimental materials. I have eliminated ninjas as experimental subjects long ago. I have mastered the most advanced cloning technology. Now all experiments are carried out using clones of human cells."

"Clone?"

This was the first time Shisui had heard of this term, but then he thought about it, wasn't this White Zetsu? He is no stranger to Bai Ye. All of Genbu's experiments on wood escape over the years have used Bai Jue.

Bai Zetsu is neither a ninja nor a civilian. He is no different from a lab rat.

After confirming that Orochimaru would not do anything arbitrarily, Shisui breathed a sigh of relief. The roots of his leadership had just gained a good reputation in the village, and he did not want to destroy it yet.

"Since it's a clone, it doesn't matter."

After pondering for a while, Shisui seemed to remember something and said to Orochimaru: "By the way, Orochimaru, the Third Hokage is still locked up in the root base. Don't you master and disciple plan to meet?"

Orochimaru stopped where he was, looked at Shisui and said in surprise: "Didn't you kill the old man? I thought you would kill the old man who gave the order to exterminate Uchiha."

Shisui glanced at Orochimaru, and then said:

"Why should I kill the Third Hokage? He is different from Danzo, and if you don't even plan to kill the Third Hokage, there is no need for me to kill him. I want to keep him alive. Look at Uchiha and Senju difference."
