Chapter 302 302 Five Shadows Conference

Chapter 302 302. Five Shadows Conference

Not long after Naruto returned to Konoha, he received news from the Hokage Building.

Jiraiya, who was the Fifth Hokage at the time, was preparing to leave for the Five Kage Conference, and invited Naruto, the leader of Uzushio Village, to participate to discuss how to deal with the threat from Uchiha Madara.

After listening to the guard's report, Naruto narrowed his eyes slightly. Why was he missing from such a grand event as the Five Shadows Conference?

After agreeing to participate in the Five Kage Conference, Naruto went to the Hyuga clan. In the old house of the clan, he met Hinata in a blue and white kimono, and invited Hinata to become a member of his shadow guard.

"Are you attending the Five Shadows Conference?" Hinata lowered her head and nodded.

Naruto glanced at Hinata's Byakugan as she evolved towards the reincarnation eye. He could feel that the quality of chakra in Hinata's body had been greatly improved. If it was said that her previous strength was only that of an elite jounin.

Now, even without using the power of the Great Tenseigan, Hinata's strength has reached the average Kage level.

This is because Hinata lacks combat experience, otherwise she can even fight tailed beasts just by relying on her physical strength. This is the power inherited by Hamura.

After finding Hinata, Naruto joined the Konoha team and rushed towards the Kingdom of Iron.

When passing somewhere in the Land of Fire, he met Sasuke who had been waiting here for a long time. After transplanting Itachi's Mangekyō Sharingan, Sasuke's Mangekyō reached the eternal level. As long as the chakra is enough, he can use the Eye Technique unscrupulously. .

Different from the previous encounters, Sasuke did not have the confidence to challenge Naruto this time.

Because when he stayed in Uzushio Village, he had already been educated by Shisui. It was at that time that he realized that Shisui didn't want to actively look for Uchiha Itachi, otherwise Itachi would not be Zhisui's opponent at all.

In Shisui's description, Naruto should have had this strength after leaving Konoha.

After hearing these rumors, Sasuke only had doubts in his eyes. He was obviously several months older than Naruto, so why was there such a big gap in strength between them.

Moreover, every time he tried to turn over through hard work, reality would always hit him head-on.

So much so that when he saw Naruto now, he didn't dare to provoke him rashly. He had to accumulate enough strength or completely give up on Naruto before he could fully demonstrate the Uchiha family tradition.

"Sasuke, why don't you know how to spar this time?"

What is supposed to come will come...Naruto showed a smiling smile.

Sasuke turned his face away, pretending not to hear Naruto's sarcasm, and said with an indifferent expression: "Sparring and competing are games only played by children. Mature ninjas will only perform tasks silently."

"But, do people like you still need the Shadow Guard? Why is the other Shadow Guard member her?"

Sasuke pointed at Hinata. After the Uchiha night, he and Hinata still had some communication, but soon he devoted his energy to revenge. Hinata also stayed at home to practice soft fist, and they didn't know each other at all. There were few opportunities for dialogue.

But from a strength perspective, Hinata only has the strength of a Jonin at best, so how can she serve as a Shadow Guard.

Naruto glanced at Sasuke, chuckled and said: "In most of the encounters between the Five Shadows, the Shadow Guards were just decorations. Since they are all decorations, why not choose more trustworthy ninjas? Besides, both you and Hinata-chan are both He has the strength of the Five Shadows and is my most trusted partner."

Sasuke snorted coldly and remained silent without answering.

Hatake Kakashi, who came to report the information, heard Naruto's words and black lines appeared on his forehead.

He suspected that Naruto was part of the Second Hokage's Shadow Guard, but there was no evidence, and although most of the members of the Second Hokage's Shadow Guard had died, Koharu and Mito Kaden were still dead. The leaves burned out.

Walking to Naruto, Kakashi Hatake said with a serious face: "Information from Kumogakure indicates that the stronghold of Kumogakure where the Nanao and Two-Tails are hidden has been attacked, and I am afraid it has fallen into the hands of Uchiha Madara."

"Naruto, if they can't find Madara Uchiha soon, they may be able to collect most of the tailed beasts."

Naruto cooperated with Kakashi and showed a solemn expression: "That is really troublesome. I hope this lesson can make other jinchūriki learn more."

"I hope so..." Kakashi looked worried and could only hope that the situation would not be too bad in the end.

…

In the country of Tang, members of the Akatsuki organization gathered together to report the results of the battle.

After Uchiha Madara came forward to hunt the Four-Tails and Five-Tails, Kakuzu, Team Hidan, Deidara, and Team Scorpion brought back the Two-Tails and Seven-Tails respectively.

Although Yukito, the two-tailed jinchuriki, is a perfect jinchuriki who is good at fire escape and speed.

But after confidently cutting off his own retreat, his wounds were cut in countless battles, and he fell into Hidan's curse ceremony, becoming the third Jinchūriki to suffer.

The Seven-Tails Jinchuriki was a Jinchuriki who was good at flying, but he couldn't last long under Deidara's bombardment.

In the end, he was hit in the abdomen by a scorpion and was poisoned and fell into coma.

It's just that the Three-Tailed Jinchuriki and the Six-Tailed Jinchuriki were temporarily missing, and there was no trace of them in the Kirigakure Village.

When the Akatsuki organization meeting was held, Black Zetsu, who was the mastermind behind the scenes, quietly looked at the other Akatsuki members at the meeting, and his attention gradually focused on Uchiha Madara.

These days, Madara Uchiha doesn't contribute much to the collection of tailed beasts.

But in the face of Uchiha Madara's absolute strength, the Akatsuki organization united as never before. Even members of the organization who relied on their old age like Scorpion and Kakuzu became much more honest, achieving results that Nagato had never achieved.

However, the disappearance of Obito Uchiha also made Black Zetsu a little anxious.

Several months have passed since Uchiha Obito left Amegakure Village, and no news has been sent back yet. Could it be that he was eliminated by Naruto and the others?

But with Kamui and Izanagi as his backers, Obito couldn't die casually.

If there was no Obito, who would be able to use the reincarnation technique to resurrect Uchiha Madara? The dirty earth body would not be able to become the Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki, nor would he be able to use the Infinite Tsukuyomi to recover chakra.

Can we just find someone to transplant the reincarnation eye and cast the reincarnation?

After thinking of this, Black Zetsu thought of Orochimaru's tribe who were imprisoned in the clan base. There were several good candidates among them, but transplanting the Samsara Eye itself was a very risky matter.

After sighing softly, Black Zetsu received a message from White Zetsu.

After digesting the news, Black Zetsu walked to the front desk and said to Uchiha Madara: "Madara-sama, the Five Kage Conference is about to be held in the Kingdom of Iron. Many jinchūriki will go there. This may be an opportunity for us to quickly collect tailed beasts."

Uchiha Madara was stunned for a moment, smiled wildly with confidence, waved his hand and said: "Let's go to the Kingdom of Iron."
