Hinata Natsu watched Yekura's departing figure, and her beautiful back, which looked incredibly smooth in the sunlight, and clenched her hands.
Kiyoshi is quite popular.
Come to think of it, it's been a long time since she and Kiyoshi did *that*...
…………
Two days later.
The group finally arrived at the front line.
"How's the situation ahead?"
Kiyoshi inquired about the ninjas stationed there.
"The situation is hard to say. Kirigakure knows that Kumogakure is using the bloodline limit 'Red Eyes,' and we don't know where they obtained 'Red Eyes,' making it very difficult for the village's investigation to progress."
The person who answered Kiyoshi was Genma Shiranui.
His assigned task was to stay here with other ninjas, including Might Guy.
"Hey, Kiyoshi, long time no see."
Matt Kai greeted him warmly.
Even during the war, he did not take off his green bodysuit, but instead wore a ninja vest over it.
"How's your training in the 'Eight Gates Formation' coming along?"
Qingsi nodded slightly.
"This is the fifth door."
Matt Kai replied.
"Progress is not slow."
Kiyoshi said.
The "Eight Gates Formation" has a boundary starting from the sixth gate.
The seventh and eighth gates require not only unimaginable effort from ordinary people, but also some talent.
Lee lacked this very quality; he was able to open the fifth gate during the Chunin Exams, but after three years of training, he only reached the sixth gate.
"Lord Minato and Lord Jiraiya will be back soon."
Genma Shiranui, with a senbon stick dangling from his mouth, continued:
"Kiyoshi, if you want to know more information, you can ask him."
Is the water gate here too?
Kushina asked from behind.
Genma Shiranui looked at the unfamiliar red-haired woman in front of him and slowly nodded.
"Let's go, Kushina."
Kiyoshi's expression remained unchanged as he led the group forward.
Chapter 307 Immortal Technique Fusion, An Unexpected Incident in the Morning
Kushina and Kamitsuki stepped into the camp together.
……
"Has Uchiha Kiyoshi come here?"
After a whirlpool, Obito and Nagato suddenly appeared in the Konoha camp.
The two men hid behind the tent.
Due to the unique nature of Obito's power, few people would discover his presence.
Even his occasional trips back to Konoha didn't trigger any alarms.
"We can have that guy Yagura Karatachi test Kiyoshi's strength."
With soil dark passage.
He plans to do it manually.
Now, Yagura Karatachi, influenced by his eye power, has become his puppet.
Obito could choose to let his consciousness personally control Yagura's body.
This is equivalent to him fighting Kiyoshi.
"Is this Konoha's camp?"
Behind Obito, there was another person's figure.
The person had bright red hair, and beneath the long hair were a pair of deep, pale purple eyes.
Behind him, he carried a huge scroll.
He stood with his feet inside a device that resembled an iron barrel, with rollers extending from all sides.
After suffering irreversible damage to his feet, Nagato could only go out using this device.
"You can tell the answer by looking at the headbands worn by those ninjas. Be careful not to let your aura leak out."
Obito glanced at Nagato.
He brought Nagato here to train Nagato's strength.
The Rinnegan is a tremendous treasure; Madara Uchiha himself only awakened this Sage Eye on his deathbed.
Even Madara Uchiha could only be described as familiar with, not as proficient in, the abilities of the Rinnegan.
Obito had never seen Madara Uchiha fight, but he guessed that Madara's personality was such that he must have mastered eye techniques that were advantageous for combat, such as the Deva Path's "Planetary Devastation" and the Preta Path's "Chakra Devouring".
Of course, all of this was just his speculation.
Obito vaguely sensed that Madara Uchiha was not as simple as he seemed.
He learned about the "binding seal" placed on his heart through some means, indicating that Madara Uchiha must have left other contingency plans.
Once all the tailed beasts are collected and all enemies are defeated, it will likely be time for the two to fight amongst themselves.
"I know."
Nagato observed everything around him.
The materials used for the tents here, and the clothes worn by the ninjas, are far superior to those of the ninjas in the Land of Rain.
The upgrading of military equipment cannot be separated from financial support.
The Land of Rain is still somewhat chaotic, and its economy, compared to the past, is only gradually recovering.
They simply cannot afford the corresponding funds to improve the strength of the Rain Country's ninjas.
This is the gap in national power between large and small countries.
Nagato remained silent.
"Here, you can also see your kinsmen who were used as sacrificial offerings by the people of Konoha."
Obito thought of a woman who had a good relationship with Minato Namikaze.
After Konoha decided to send Kushina to the battlefield, he learned from White Zetsu that Kushina was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!
"The power of sacrifice?"
Nagato was puzzled.
"That is, the so-called human jinchūriki."
Obito explained to Nagato.
As the two were talking, Kiyoshi, who was in the distance, suddenly turned his gaze toward them.
Obito's heart skipped a beat, and he and Nagato quickly used a concealment ninjutsu to hide.
After a while, Kiyoshi withdrew his gaze, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Is that guy's perception really that sharp?"
Obito frowned.
All sensory ninjutsu are techniques that require active execution.
It doesn't mean that once you learn it, it will run continuously for 24 hours a day.
Otherwise, how could Tobirama Senju, whose perception was equally strong back then, have failed to sense the sneak attacks from Kinkaku and Ginkaku?
This resulted in him being severely injured and forced to flee. In the end, he chose to cover the retreat alone, allowing Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others to escape first.
What are your eyes?
Nagato was suspicious.
His keen insight allowed him to clearly see the scarlet pattern inside the eye holes of Obito's mask.
That's completely different from the ordinary three-tomoe jade pendant.
Nagato had wanted to ask this for a long time.
"The Mangekyou Sharingan is considered the ultimate evolution of the Sharingan."
Obito pointed to his eyes.
He didn't quite say it.
That means the Sharingan is qualified to become the "Rinnegan".
Nagato believed he possessed the "Rinnegan" naturally, but it was actually Madara Uchiha who gradually progressed from the One-Tomoe Sharingan to the Mangekyou Sharingan before finally acquiring the "Rinnegan."
"Yeah."
Nagato nodded.
Obito's eye power is indeed inferior to his.
In this light, the "Rinnegan" is indeed the most sublime eye.
It truly lives up to its reputation as the Sage of Six Paths' Eye of Immortality.
Looking at Nagato's arrogant demeanor, Obito felt nothing but pity.
He also fused with "Hashirama cells," and might evolve the "Rinnegan" like Madara.
A fool like Nagato should just stay a pawn.
…………
"What's wrong, Kiyoshi?"
Kushina asked.
She possesses the ability to sense malice, and can use this ability as long as she extracts the Nine-Tails' chakra.
There seemed to be a fleeting hint of malice just now.
However, Kushina was used to this situation.
After her identity was exposed, some ninjas in the village believed that she was a demon fox disguised as a monster, and thus showed malice.
She had never done anything wrong, yet she still faced such discrimination.
When she was a child, she was gossiped about and had her hair pulled because her hair color was too bright.
"Nothing much, just two frogs jumping around, looking at the sky from the bottom of a well."
Qing Si continued to move forward.
"I see."
Kushina nodded slowly.
The two went to hand over the duties to the person in charge of the camp.
The man who emerged was tall with white hair reaching his waist.
"Kiyoshi, Kushina, you've arrived."
