"Hey, hey, hey, calm down!"
Hatake Kakashi was caught off guard and scared when he heard Akihara Kagura's reason for wanting to kill the Fourth Mizukage Yagura, and he hurriedly grabbed Kagura's wrist!
"Calm down, Kagura-kun!"
Uchiha Itachi was also frightened and quickly stopped Akihara Kagura!
After all, Uchiha Itachi had been taken to the battlefield by his father when he was four years old, and he knew very well the bloody scenes of the Great Ninja War!
How can this temporary teammate be so extreme...
Are all the Root ninjas under Shimura Danzo's command such characters who are eager to kill and create chaos?
"..."
The Fourth Mizukage Yagura was also frightened by Akihara Kagura's thought process. Why does this kid want to start a war so casually!
The Fourth Mizukage Yagura's thought of committing suicide was instantly dispelled. His existence has always been a disaster; he couldn't bring a war to the Mist Village on his deathbed.
"Don't forget our mission."
Hatake Kakashi tightly held Akihara Kagura's wrist and continued to persuade in a deep voice: "Kagura, we still need him to help us find Obito..."
Akihara Kagura's eyes flickered, and he said in a deep voice: "Anyway, we already know that Uchiha Obito is in the Land of Water. The noise from the recent battle was so loud that Uchiha Obito probably noticed and escaped. There's no need to keep the Mizukage anymore..."
"..."
Hatake Kakashi frowned and quickly realized, continuing to say: "We can take the Mizukage back to Konoha, but how to deal with the Mizukage is a major issue and can only be handled by the Third Hokage..."
His purpose in stopping Akihara Kagura was not only to find Uchiha Obito but more to prevent a war between the Mist Village and Konoha!
"And moreover..."
Hatake Kakashi's gaze turned to the distant land, pondering: "Even if Obito didn't escape, it's now very difficult for us to sneak in for reconnaissance. The recent battle noise was so loud, the Mist Village must have realized there's an external invasion and will be on high alert..."
In this situation, if they go to the Mist Village for reconnaissance, the chances of finding Uchiha Obito are slim; but not going for a reconnaissance at the Mist Village also feels regrettable, what if Uchiha Obito is still hiding there!
Akihara Kagura raised his hand and pointed at the Fourth Mizukage Yagura, suggesting: "We could hang this Mizukage up and make him knock on the doors of the Mist Village, ordering the ninjas of the village not to resist, and we go search the Mist Village..."
"..."
A bead of cold sweat ran down Hatake Kakashi's forehead. He reached up to wipe it away and said, "Wait, this doesn't seem like reconnaissance, does it?"
"Isn't searching and scouting essentially the same?"
Akihara Kagura raised an eyebrow and continued, "Anyway, we've already alarmed them, so it's unlikely we'll achieve anything now. It's just a matter of doing a cursory search, whatever is convenient..."
As Akihara Kagura said this, he added, "Captain Kakashi, even if we hide our identities and let this Mizukage lead us into the Mist Village, who knows if he'll suddenly expose our identities, putting us in danger..."
Akihara Kagura spread his hands and concluded, "Rather than that, it's better for us to reveal ourselves and use this Mizukage to threaten the Mist Village to let us conduct our search."
"This could provoke a conflict between Konoha and the Mist Village..."
Uchiha Itachi, standing nearby, expressed his concern, worrying it could bring trouble to the village.
"We've already captured the Mizukage."
Akihara Kagura sighed and looked at the Fourth Mizukage Yagura: "Do you think, Lord Mizukage, will forget today's humiliation?"
"..."
The Fourth Mizukage Yagura didn't want to speak.
Actually, Yagura didn't hate Hatake Kakashi and his group, even feeling grateful to them for releasing him from the genjutsu...
But...
This young kid named Akihara Kagura was really unpleasant to listen to.
Originally, Yagura hadn't thought being captured was a bad thing, but after Akihara Kagura's words, he suddenly felt indeed humiliated.
"Look..."
Akihara Kagura pointed at Yagura's face, indicating for them to see: "The Mizukage has already started to bear a grudge against us..."
"..."
Hatake Kakashi and Uchiha Itachi looked over at the same time.
"I…"
The expression on the face of Yagura, the Fourth Mizukage, was visibly crumbling, with a furious cross almost popping out on his forehead, yet he couldn't find the words to forgive them.
If he said he didn't feel humiliated... that would be too embarrassing!
"Let's go."
"We'll investigate the Mist Village."
Akihara Kagura raised his hand to control a vine, lifting Yagura, the Fourth Mizukage, back up, and controlled the Wooden Dragon to move towards the land.
Land of Water.
On a reef by the coast.
Uchiha Obito had been observing the battle by the seaside.
Uchiha Obito sent Yagura, the Fourth Mizukage, to stop Hatake Kakashi's team because there was no stronger ninja than Yagura in the Mist Village.
Not long after.
Uchiha Obito saw a scene of the Wooden Dragon capturing the Three-Tails.
The elite squad of the Mist Village, led by Yagura, the Fourth Mizukage, was completely defeated by Hatake Kakashi and others, with the main combatant being his spy, Akihara Kagura.
If only he had known...
He should have had a good talk with that kid! "Wood Release, huh..."
A pitcher plant monster, standing beside Uchiha Obito, spoke in a hoarse voice with its black half-face: "That kid dealt with the Three-Tails Jinchuriki so quickly..."
"The affairs of the Mist Village are about to be exposed!"
The white half-face said with a grin, looking at Uchiha Obito: "It's still our man who dealt with the Fourth Mizukage we controlled!"
"Obito, we must take that kid seriously."
The black half-face continued in a sinister, hoarse voice: "The Eye of the Moon Plan needs his power. His Wood Release is perfect for capturing the Tailed Beasts."
"I know."
Uchiha Obito glanced at the pitcher plant monster beside him and said in a deep voice: "Zetsu, send a White Zetsu clone to follow that kid Akihara Kagura, so he can keep in touch with us at any time, to avoid any further conflicts…"
Uchiha Obito felt that he had made some miscalculations.
From now on, he must pay attention to that kid and establish a channel of communication with him to prevent the kid from harming his subordinates again.
Similarly,
The identity of the Konoha spy is really important!
As the strongest village in the ninja world, Konoha should not be underestimated. It is essential to utilize Akihara Kagura's spy identity effectively, to alter the judgments of Hatake Kakashi and Konoha, and prevent Konoha from uncovering something that could impact their plans!
"Okay."
The pitcher plant monster quickly nodded its head.
"Send a smarter White Zetzu."
The black half of the pitcher plant monster's face calmly reminded, "Don't send idiots. That kid likes killing and is somewhat lawless..."
"I understand."
The white half of the pitcher plant monster's face agreed and then asked Uchiha Obito, "Shall we return to Mist Village? Our control over Mist Village must have been completely exposed by now..."
"Hmph!"
Uchiha Obito snorted, and a whirlpool of space-time appeared in his eyes, instantly absorbing his body.
"This is my mistake..."
"Allowing that guy Kakashi to take advantage of Kagura and win a battle!"
"Next time, without Kagura's help, that waste will definitely not be so lucky again!"
