Chapter 204 A Long-Awaited Reunion
Chapter 204 A Long-Awaited Reunion
When Shiba Kiyokawa, disguised as a Konoha ninja, actively approached the giant turtle in the center of the battlefield, the remaining Kirigakure ninjas went completely mad.
"Damn it! That's our tailed beast!"
"Don't go near it, you despicable Konoha person!"
They completely forgot that not long ago, it was clearly their own meticulous planning to use the power of the Three-Tails to wreak havoc on Konoha Village.
Shiba Kiyokawa sincerely understands their anger stemming from an unbalanced mindset and hopes they will continue to maintain it.
The more they maintain this anger, the more ruthlessly they will settle scores with those who devised the original plan once things are settled.
Ultimately, regardless of the timeline, the Three-Tails Plan was a very stupid plan. The planner of this plan did not design this operation from the perspective of Kirigakure at all.
In the original story, the blame for the failed plan naturally fell on the Third Mizukage. After all, he was just a expendable object in Madara's eyes, meant to be squeezed dry before he died, and he wouldn't feel bad about using him up.
However, in the current timeline, the Third Mizukage has long since died.
Shiba Kiyokawa was looking forward to it: when the news got back, who would be blamed this time, and whose head would be the one to be held accountable?
What he needs to do now is to sharpen this knife as much as possible and make the consequences as big as possible!
There's nothing we can do about it; he's just kind-hearted. He enjoys seeing bloodshed.
However, once he sets his sights on the Three-Tails, not only will Kirigakure lock onto him, but Konoha will also turn its attention to him because of his radical actions.
"Friend, calm down. Tailed beasts are not something that ordinary ninjas like us can handle. Don't be impulsive!"
Also, which squad are you from? Why are you always operating alone? I feel like I've never seen you before.
After fanning the flames for so long, he's finally about to be exposed.
The next moment, Shiba Kiyokawa calmly pulled down his lower eyelids, revealing his distinctive pair of vertical pupils after his disguise.
"I'm Orochimaru's subordinate. I just came here to provide support a few days ago."
Orochimaru's tiger skin is really easy to pull off.
Even when faced with questioning, Shiba Kiyokawa can coldly retaliate.
"I don't need to report my affairs to you. Mind your own business."
Ironically, this cold attitude is quite intimidating.
That's just Orochimaru's style.
He's going to pretend to be Minato Namikaze's subordinate; that kind of attitude is guaranteed to get him beaten up.
However, this is, after all, the coastal war zone in the southeast, where the most neurotic group of troublemakers from Miya are concentrated.
The next moment, a Uchiha clansman who had activated the Three Tomoe Sharingan arrived, but he stubbornly refused to retreat under the oppressive gaze of Shiba Kiyokawa's cold-blooded vertical pupils.
"No! Even Orochimaru can't interfere in this battle! This is spoils of war for our Uchiha clan!"
Just as Shiba Kiyokawa frowned slightly, pondering whether to take a risky move, a figure arrived in an instant and persuaded the arrogant Uchiha with a single sentence.
"Step back. You can't handle the Tailed Beasts. I'll deal with this."
Upon hearing this, not only did the Jonin of the Uchiha clan leave, but even the ordinary Konoha ninja who had initially questioned Shiba Kiyokawa breathed a sigh of relief, quickly put his hands behind his back, and left in a ninja running style.
The person who could elicit such a unified reaction from everyone present was clearly no ordinary individual.
The one present was Uchiha Shisui! The most influential new generation powerhouse in this war zone.
For a moment, Shiba Kiyokawa was somewhat dazed.
After more than half a year apart, this was the first time he had seen Uchiha Shisui since the incident in the Land of Rain.
The moment their eyes met, even though they hadn't exchanged any words, Shiba Kiyokazu had a feeling that the other person had probably already guessed his identity.
Sure enough, the next moment, Shisui spoke, as if trying hard to suppress his overflowing emotions.
"I think of you every day while you're gone."
Shiba Kiyokawa turned his head away, pretending not to understand what the other person meant.
"Heh, you've mistaken me for someone else. Shisui, the master of teleportation, tell me how you plan to deal with this big guy?"
Shisui's gaze remained fixed on him, and after a long while, she seemed to finally accept the truth.
"Really? Then I must have mistaken you for someone else. But for some reason, seeing you reminds me of so many things."
Although he said he was sorry, his tone was clearly still full of probing.
Shiba Kiyokawa continued to pretend he didn't understand.
"You're not in a good mood, Uchiha. You can't handle the tailed beasts in your current state. Why don't you step aside and let me do it?"
After another second or so of silence, Uchiha Shisui finally got down to business.
"Even Orochimaru wouldn't dare to be so arrogant as to deal with a tailed beast alone, would he? I think it's better to cooperate. The Uchiha clan can help you."
"So what do you need?" Shiba Kiyokawa asked in his usual indifferent, businesslike manner.
For some reason, at that moment, Shiba Kiyokawa seemed to see a fleeting sense of loss on Uchiha Shisui's face.
After thinking for a moment, Shisui said, "How about this, if we can really subdue the Three-Tails, then everyone will have a chance to try."
If your seal fails, then the Three-Tails must be dealt with by our Uchiha clan.
Regardless of which side ultimately obtains the Three-Tails, the subsequent handling of the matter must be decided through mutual consultation between the two parties.
Shiba Kiyokazu naturally had no objection to this approach.
With his Adamantine Sealing Chains, it's impossible for him to fail in suppressing the Tailed Beasts.
Moreover, he didn't care at all about the conditions agreed upon together.
Anyway, he's currently relying on Orochimaru's coattails. If the tailed beast is lost, you can come after Orochimaru. What does that have to do with me, Shiba Kiyokawa?
"it is good."
He immediately agreed.
Uchiha Shisui then ordered his clansmen to disperse, with most of them continuing to hunt down the remaining Kirigakure ninja, while a small number returned to report the situation to the clan leader, including information about the Three-Tails.
As for the battle against the Tailed Beasts, he alone is enough.
The kaleidoscope opened again in the next moment, and the emerald green Susanoo skeleton rose from the ground!
Uchiha Shisui has not yet mastered the complete Susanoo. The Susanoo he summons is currently only the upper body and is only six or seven meters tall.
Fortunately, Isobu is similar in size to a tortoise, and its height is not its strong point; it has a relatively flat body.
Therefore, the half-body Susanoo is not at a disadvantage in terms of height.
After the half-body Susanoo appeared, it immediately drew its spiral sword and plunged it down, instantly blocking the large amount of coral that Isobu spewed out.
Immediately, Shiba Kiyokawa also made his move, instantly teleporting to the position of the Three-Tails' eyes, drawing his katana, and slashing out.
It immediately injured Isobu's eye, causing it to let out a painful cry.
Seeing this, Shisui, standing inside the Susanoo skeleton, was once again stunned.
As if recalling something, he murmured again, "You do indeed resemble him to some extent."
Shiba Kiyokawa was so frightened that he almost sheathed his katana on the spot.
