Chapter 259 Investment
At this moment, the silent Zen Master Kong suddenly slammed his staff on the ground.
The massive array expanded suddenly, and a white figure burst out of the ground in an instant.
"Oh dear, it seems we've been discovered."
Ah Fei appeared before everyone with an exaggerated tone.
Xiao Nan looked at Jue (in his black and white Jue state), then at A Fei. This voice should be half of the old Jue's.
"What do you want to do?" Konan looked at Obito coldly.
The White Zetsu lying in ambush underground clearly had a purpose.
Obito did indeed have ulterior motives; he wanted to create some minor conflicts and then get Konan and Zenkumo covered in spores.
This way, he can know Nagato's location later.
Unexpectedly, it was discovered so easily.
This further heightened Obito's wariness of Zen Master Kong.
However, the White Zetsu's spore ability has not yet been revealed.
Obito, of course, would not admit it.
"I just wanted to gather intelligence about the surrounding area. After all, this mission has attracted quite a few forces."
"Is that so?" Xiao Nan's face showed a hint of sarcasm, but she didn't say it out loud.
Although Konan really wanted to kill Obito, Obito's abilities made it difficult for him to escape.
For now, we can only maintain this superficial cooperative relationship.
Both sides had something on their minds.
Xiao Nan didn't know how to remove the talisman, and neither did Jue.
Obito also didn't know how Nagato had removed the talisman.
Both sides are testing.
"I need to talk to Nagato," Obito said, finding a convenient excuse.
Xiao Nan didn't take the bait, but simply said calmly, "Talking to me is the same."
Jue (Black and White Jue) suddenly spoke up: "The Outer Path Demon Statue has been recovering very slowly recently."
"If we don't give the Outer Path Statue enough energy, the plan will be difficult to implement later."
In reality, the Gedo Mazo only requires energy when it is activated.
This is why Nagato was drained of his life force when he first summoned the Gedo Mazo.
However, Obito and Zetsu later tricked Nagato, claiming that the Gedo Mazo needed a certain amount of energy to maintain and recover.
Let Nagato always be a free energy pack or health pack.
As long as he remains weak, he will naturally not escape Obito's grasp.
However, Nagato now knows everything, so he directly cut off the energy supply to the Outer Path Geisha.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Nan's eyes flashed with disgust.
She didn't give a definitive answer; instead, she said in an icy tone:
"Are you done talking? If you are, then get out of here."
Having possessed this unique skill for over a thousand years, he merely narrowed his eyes slightly upon hearing Xiao Nan's words, without showing any anger.
Instead, he obediently walked over and stood next to Obito.
Obito's eyes flickered, and then he asked, "So, the next mission is to instigate a conflict among the five great nations?"
Xiao Nan said expressionlessly, "There's no need to provoke them; they'll start fighting on their own."
"Now all we need to do is spread the word about how our Akatsuki organization has accomplished this mission."
"Don't follow me anymore. I will contact you when I need you."
After saying these words, Xiao Nan turned and left.
Obito, Zetsu, and Tobi stood still in place.
Ah Fei chuckled and said, "Hey, things seem to be getting interesting."
Absolute Obito said:
“Nagato must have known some information, which is why he stopped providing energy to the Gedo Mazo.”
Obito's expression darkened: "It seems Nagato has been planning this for a long time."
Jue said leisurely, "You didn't seize such a good opportunity just now."
"If we capture Konan, finding Nagato will be a piece of cake, won't it?"
Obito shook his head: "I'm not sure. That Zen Master gives me a very dangerous feeling."
"Masters of sealing techniques are indeed quite dangerous." Jue did not deny this point.
For ordinary people, sealing techniques are merely an auxiliary means; such specialized masters could easily capture them all.
"What? You've given up?" Jue asked.
Obito snorted: "How could that be? We just need more people."
A one-on-one fight is out of the question; with henchmen around, who would bother to do it themselves?
"Didn't you say before that there was a guy who had a grudge against Konoha that we could recruit? How strong is he?"
After a moment's thought, Zetsu said, "This person is called Hiruko. He was a contemporary of Orochimaru, but he doesn't have much talent."
"However, he is currently developing a technique called 'Oro-ya,' which is said to be able to seize bloodline limits."
Obito was somewhat surprised: "Huh!? Seizing a bloodline limit!?"
"Did he conduct the experiment?"
Jue nodded: "Of course I have, and his Ghost Luo Sprout has a high probability of success."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have made contact with him."
Obito's side doesn't have many capable fighters to begin with, and now is precisely the time when they are short of people.
"So he's worth investing in?" Obito asked, squinting.
Jue confirmed, "It's very valuable. If his Ghost Luo Sprout succeeds, you can use it yourself."
"After all, Nagato's combat strength is not weak, and you are stronger, so you have a chance."
Black Zetsu said seductively.
The current Nagato faction has not only removed the Heart Curse, but has also recruited a sealing technique master.
Furthermore, since the Uchiha clan was not wiped out, Obito's current strength is somewhat low.
Now that Nagato has escaped Zetsu's control, the only way to complete his plan to save his mother is to strengthen Obito, the pawn in the game.
After thinking it over, Obito realized that they were indeed lacking in top-tier fighters.
The only powerful demon has not yet recovered.
"Alright, let's go and meet with Beiruhu first."
Having made up his mind, Obito prepared to first examine the Oni-Garra Technique.
Then he gave the following instructions:
"Isn't Konan's current plan to develop the Akatsuki organization just to make money from Jinchūriki?"
“Go to the black market and spread the word, find them something to do.”
"Gather more information about Zen Kong, as we may very well come into contact with him in the future."
Jue replied, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it."
……
After walking for a while, Xiao Nan and Chan Kong...
Zenkong suddenly spoke up: "They didn't catch up."
Xiao Nan also breathed a sigh of relief, although she was still very confident in Qian Yao.
However, the fact that she was arrested and that led to Yahiko's death left a psychological scar on her.
Obito's abilities are unpredictable; if Konan gets captured again, things will be terrible.
"Are we going straight back?" Xiao Nan asked.
Zen Kong pondered for a moment:
"You go back first. I'll walk around the area and see if any other forces will contact me."
Xiao Nan didn't say much; Qian Yao was much stronger than her.
"I understand, I'll be going now."
As she spoke, huge white paper wings appeared behind her. Then, with a flap of her wings, she flew away with a gust of wind.
