Chapter 147 - Chapter 147: Killing Many Birds with One Stone

"Hee hee hee... It's all done. Kumogakure will definitely not accept the agreement we signed."

'Guroya' grinned widely, his body muscles twisted and changed, turning back into a pure white, strange human – White Zetsu.

This ability to completely transform into someone else by absorbing their Chakra is White Zetsu's special transformation skill. Even Byakugan and Sharingan, which are common eye techniques, cannot see through it, let alone the Kaleidoscope Sharingan.

Obito nodded slightly and changed White Zetsu's clothes for Guroya's.

He left behind a hard-to-read letter and a timed explosion device, then disappeared into the whirlpool with White Zetsu.

...

Hyuga clan land, night deepening.

Hyuga Hiashi stood in the middle of the courtyard, stepping with strange steps, his palms constantly changing, spitting out Chakra from the holes in his body, forming a whirlpool-like current that wrapped around him.

Ever since he tried to 'steal a chicken but lost rice instead' that day and was humiliated by Orochimaru, knowing he couldn't get revenge, Hyuga Hizashi had often practiced 'Rotation' here, over and over again.

It was as if only being inside this perfect defense could his heart find a moment of peace.

After a while, Hyuga Hiashi stopped practicing Gentle Fist. Looking at the sweat on his arms, he showed a bitter smile. "Forget it, why should I deceive myself?"

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed past in front of him, startling Hyuga Hiashi, who was sadly grieving for himself and his clan.

"Hinata??"

Seeing the black-clothed person holding the child, Hyuga Hiashi shuddered, his figure flashed, and he quickly followed.

"Who are you? Put Hinata down!"

The two, one in front and one behind, chased and fled towards the outside of the Hyuga clan land.

The movement here naturally alarmed the patrolling Hyuga branch family. Seeing the child in the enemy's arms, they were all shocked.

Like a boiling pot, the Hyuga clan land was in chaos.

The Byakugan's insight is long, reaching three to five miles, and at least one kilometer. The person in black could not escape this distance in an instant. As expected, he was surrounded by the Hyuga branch family.

"Put Hinata down, and I'll spare your life."

Hyuga Hiashi looked solemn, bursting with fierce killing intent.

His Byakugan was activated to its limit, staring at the person in black, making every movement of his visible.

A member of the branch family shouted, "Clan leader, be careful, there is other Chakra in his mind, he may be controlled by a mind-altering trick."

Hyuga Hiashi remained unmoved. He had naturally noticed this, and he could even see that the person had used a transformation technique.

But now, he couldn't care about any of that. Saving Hinata's life was the first priority.

The person in black glanced at the surrounding Hyuga clan members and suddenly gave a cold laugh. He turned his hand and grabbed a kunai from his sleeve, stabbing it hard towards Hinata's neck.

"How dare you?"

Hyuga Hiashi was shocked and angry. He flew over, his palms filled with Chakra, trying his best to strike the person in black, who didn't dodge.

In a flash, the kunai stopped at Hinata's throat, but Hyuga Hiashi couldn't stop his movement. His palms hit the chest of the person in black.

Bang…

With a dull sound, the person in black was thrown away. Hyuga Hiashi caught Hinata, but his gaze was fixed on the person in black.

A Hyuga branch family member confirmed that the person in black had lost his life and stepped forward to take off the black hood. When he saw the face that returned to its original form, his expression changed greatly. "He's the leader of the Kumogakure mission!"

The surrounding crowd stirred, but Hyuga Hiashi had already closed his eyes, his face as gloomy as water.

He had realized that the series of events tonight was a trap.

...

"Guroya is dead."

Outside the Hyuga clan land, White Zetsu stuck half of his body out of the ground and said, "The timed detonation device was also activated early. If Kumogakure's sensing methods are correct, they will be able to get here quickly."

Obito nodded slightly. "I've already tested the sensing methods."

After the first assassination of the peace treaty team,

The Kumogakure higher-ups controlled by Obito took the opportunity to propose that they wanted to place techniques on their bodies to confirm their location.

This is also why Kakuzu and Sasori failed to exchange the heads of the peace treaty mission for bounty after the second assassination. Instead, they were chased by the Kumogakure people all the way.

To block this sensing, you would have to use a better sealing technique to cover it, or destroy the body to get rid of the evidence.

The Hyuga clan only uses Gentle Fist and doesn't know much about sealing techniques. Obito didn't believe that there would be a sealing technique master in the Hyuga clan land by chance.

As for destroying the body? Guroya's body had some small things on it. If something went wrong, it would turn into a big explosion, and the wreckage after the explosion could easily prove his identity.

There was no way to escape this trap for the Hyuga clan.

Obito sighed slightly. "It's a pity, the relationship between the Uchiha clan and the village has improved so much in just a few months."

Otherwise, besides the Hyuga, Konoha, and Kumogakure, even the Uchiha could be included in this scheme, creating even greater chaos.

White Zetsu looked at Obito acting arrogantly in front of him and curled his lips. "It's just a dead Jonin, are you sure Kumogakure will turn hostile?"

"It's not just a Jonin, but also the many unequal terms set in the peace treaty."

Obito glanced at White Zetsu and said faintly, "That's real profit. Kumogakure would never agree to it anyway, and now I've given them a very good excuse."

"It's the same with those people from the mission. Originally, they would have been blamed and have no place to live when they returned to the village, but now they have a chance to turn the tables. Do you think they won't cling to it tightly..."

Looking at White Zetsu's confused face, Obito turned his head and stopped talking.

He thought to himself that White Zetsu was indeed not as smart as Black Zetsu.

...

In the underground lab.

Seeing Obito disappear into the whirlpool, the lamp god slowly retracted its slender tentacles and scratched its head.

"Tsk tsk tsk... Why does this Obito only think about causing trouble in Konoha all day long? What's the grudge about?"

"If there's really such a big grudge, wouldn't it be more efficient to assassinate them one by one with Kamui?"

"Even if it's too risky to assassinate elite Jonin, it's easy to mess with Chunin."

After complaining casually, the lamp god didn't dwell on it.

The ideas of crazy people are rather abstract. This Obito is obviously doing performance art. He doesn't like the 'doing it yourself and getting your hands dirty' method of killing, but instead wants to kill with the help of grand concepts such as 'war, disaster, and fate', thinking it's natural and high-end.

But it's fine if you stir up trouble in Kirigakure and provoke a deadly fight between the bloodline families and ordinary ninja. But he has to cause trouble in Konoha, he must be taught a lesson.

Thinking of this, the lamp god entered Orochimaru's mind and played a ghost song from when he was still human,

"Hey, wake up, someone's coming to steal your crops."
