Naruto: Konoha’s Kanpu

Chapter 850: First Contact

On a desolate and secluded island, far from civilization, Obito, Zetsu, and White Zetsu’s clone, Tobi, stood side by side on a towering cliff, silently gazing toward the horizon.

There, two superpowers were about to collide.

After a while, the figure in black standing in the middle spoke: “What did Nagato say?”

“He asked me to confirm the exact whereabouts of Kyubi’s Jinchuriki.” Black Zetsu replied.

“So that’s how it is, he wants to take advantage of Kumogakure and Konoha’s conflict to take Kyubi’s Jinchuriki away, smart.” The black robed man, Obito, remarked with a smile in his eyes.

“Obito, I have to remind you that your current actions have exceeded the plan set by Madara-sama.” Black Zetsu said with a grim tone.

“Are you teaching me how to do things?” Obito turned his head indifferently and looked towards him. In the orange-yellow spiral mask, a Sharingan exuded faint cold light.

“I'm just reminding you.” Black Zetsu looked at Obito expressionless. He knew that Obito’s ambitions were swelling day by day, but he hadn't expected him to act beyond the plan, which annoyed him greatly!

‘The situation in the Shinobi World was already so difficult, and now you are so self-willed.’ Black Zetsu is distressed!

“Hey hey, this octopus unexpectedly looks kind of cute.” White Zetsu’s clone, Tobi, interrupted them with a playful laugh.

Obito lowered his gaze and saw a huge octopus swimming in the waves below the steep cliff, it was Hachibi, Gyuki.

However, at this moment, Hachibi is already under Obito’s control, and a pair of scythe-like Mangekyo patterns are revealed between the opening and closing of his eyes.

……

At the border between the Land of Hot Water and the Land of Fire.

After Kanpū added a few more entries to his diary, Minato and the army finally arrived at the border.

With Minato's arrival, the morale on the side of Konoha suddenly became arrogant and unruly. Those Shinobi who patrolled the border day and night walked around with their heads held high, chatting and laughing as if they didn't even regard the Kumogakure’s Shinobi across the border.

The news spread, and the atmosphere in suddenly became tense!

In the conference room of Yugakure’s administrative building, Yondaime Raikage, and several Kumogakure’s higher-ups gathered once again.

“Has the information of Gekko Kanpū not been collected yet?” Yondaime Raikage angrily created palm prints on the desk, and his eyes glared at Elder Iyun, who was in charge of information gathering, fiercely.

‘Why are you always picking on me!’

‘If you dare, just fire me!’

Elder Iyun remained calm, observing his breath and heart, and said softly: “Gekko Kanpū is the team leader of Anbu’s sixth team. Therefore, apart from the information available on the surface, all other information has been sealed by Konoha's Anbu.”

Bang!

Yondaime Raikage tried to create another palm pritns, finally shattering the desk, sending wood splinters flying.

“I've been waiting for so many days, and this is all the intelligence you can give me?”

Yondaime Raikage’s facial muscles bulged with fury as he spoke sternly, “Are you trying to fool me, you bastard?!”

“Sorry.” Elder Iyun sat calmly, indifferent to the chaos. At any rate, he had made enough money over the years, and even if he retired now, he could live comfortably to ninety.

“Yondaime-sama.”

A Kumogakure’s Elder next to him frowned and asked, “Is the reason why you've been bidding your time these days is because you are waiting for Gekko Kanpū’s information? “

The rest of Kumogakure’s higher-ups looked at him in disbelief, their expressions as if saying: ‘No way, right? Yondaime Raikage-sama, who led five thousand elite Kumogakure’s Shinobi, was actually intimidated by a twenty-something Konoha’s Shinobi?’

Yondaime Raikage felt so aggrieved. He felt these Kumogakure’s Elders were skilled in handling political affairs, but when it came to combat, they are complete idiots!

‘They had no idea how terrifying Gekko Kanpū is!’

Of course, Yondaime Raikage is not afraid of him, but if Kanpū summoned a large number of shadow clones during their battle…

The Kumogakure’s army may not be able to stop him!

So he wanted to gather all the information related to Kanpū, he has to find out his fatal weakness, and then strike him down in one go!

But, but!!

These bastards just didn't understand his painstaking efforts at all!

‘Damn it!!’

Yondaime Raikage’s breathing became heavy, and when he got up, he shattered the chair under his butt to pieces fiercely.

Boom!

The group of Kumogakure’s higher-ups quickly got up to avoid the flying debris and said in unison: “Yondaime-sama, now is not the time to lose your temper. Please calm down!”

“Yes, Yondaime Hokage, Namikaze Minato has arrived with the Konoha’s army. We need to formulate a battle plan as soon as possible!”

“In any case, we must rescue Killer B, Yondaime-sama, the bigger picture is at stake!”

The Kumogakure’s higher-ups spoke one after another, quickly ‘calming down' the raging Yondaime Raikage.

“I understand.” Yondaime Raikage took a deep breath, swallowing his frustration for the sake of his brother.

“Then, let’s discuss it first…”

A Kumogakure’s higher-up was just about to talk about the battle plan, when there is a sudden knock on the door outside the conference room.

“What’s wrong?” The Kumogakure’s higher-up asked impatiently.

“Raikage-sama, Advisors-sama, it’s not good, the Yellow Flash is here!!” A worried voice came from outside the room.

“What?” The Kumogakure’s higher-ups looked at each other in shock.

‘Namikaze Minato… is coming?’

……

Outside Yugakure.

Minato, Shikaku, Shikuro, Kanpū, and Shisui stood in a row, facing nearly a thousand Kumogakure’s Shinobi with a strong presence!

Minato’s purpose in coming to the border was not to start a war with Kumogakure, but to negotiate. Therefore, as soon as he arrived, he brought people to meet Yondaime Raikage in Yugakure.

Not long after, a human-shaped lightning bolt descended from the sky, it’s none other than Yondaime Raikage, A.

“Long time no see, A.” Minato greeted with a smile when he saw the person coming.

The two had clashed like sparks in the Third Shinobi World War, which is over ten years ago.

Now, Minato's child is already old enough to go to school, while A is still a single dog.

“Namikaze Minato…”

Yondaime Raikage stared at Minato, his small eyes fixed on him, and he got straight to the point, saying coldly, “I know why you're here. As long as you release B, I will take my army back, otherwise, I'll flatten Konoha!”

“A, Konoha did not kidnap Killer B.” Minato said solemnly.

“I don’t believe it! I want to investigate Konoha thoroughly!” A replied coldly.

Minato sighed, and said: “Let’s find a quiet place to talk.”

“If you have anything to say, just say it here!” Yondaime Raikage didn't want to face two users of the Flying Thunder God Technique in a cramped room.

“In that case, I'll be direct.”

Minato said, “A, do you remember the letter I wrote to you a few years ago?”

“What letter?” There was a confusion inside Yondaime Raikage’s eyes.

‘He had actually forgotten…’ Minato furrowed his brows slightly and reminded him: “It’s the letter about a Missing-nin organization called Akatsuki!”

Yondaime Raikage carefully recalled, and indeed, there was such a letter in his memory. He vaguely remembered that the contents of the letter were very exaggerated, so he just tossed it aside after a quick glance.

Minato said with a smile: “It seems you still remember.”

“So what?” Yondaime Raikage glared at Minato.

Minato said seriously: “The answer you seek is in that letter.”

was impatient was impatient and said: “Namikaze Minato, just spit what you want to say, you bastard? Do you want me to go back and find the letter?”

“Insolent!”

Kanpū couldn't bear it anymore and said angrily, “Yondaime Raikage-dono, please mind your words.”

“Kanpū.” Minato gestured for Kanpū not to make trouble, and then said to Yondaime Raikage, “The contents of the letter are about Akatsuki gathering the nine Biju to destroy the Five Great Shinobi Villages and rebuild the order of the Shinobi World. A, it wasn't us who kidnapped Killer B, it was Akatsuki!”
