Part Time Employee in Konoha

Chapter 85: War?

Akihara Kagura is a good subordinate.

This is indeed taking into consideration the pros and cons for Uchiha Obito.

If at this time the man with orange hair and the woman with light purple hair are not killed, Hatake Kakashi and Konoha will definitely keep a close eye on their intelligence. Once they are willing to investigate further, there will definitely be astonishing discoveries, which will affect Uchiha Obito's plan.

"..."

Actually, what Akihara Kagura said makes a lot of sense. Killing those two people would minimize risks and allow one to vent the frustration accumulated over this period. However, Uchiha Obito still believes that this matter should not be listened to by this youngster.

The plan hasn't even started yet, to kill the most important pieces first?

This is too strange!

Moreover...

Killing the man with orange hair is not going to be easy!

"Not now."

Uchiha Obito couldn't help frowning, saying in a deep voice, "If we're speaking seriously, they are even more important than you!"

"..."

Akihara Kagura's expression was clearly a bit displeased.

"It may not be the case..."

The black half-face of the pitcher plant monster shook its head, saying hoarsely, "If they were killed, Akihara Kagura could replace them."

After saying this, the black half-face slowly continued, "Of course, they are still useful at this time. Wait until they become disobedient, then think of a way to kill them. Actually, Akihara Kagura is more suitable than them to be the core of the plan."

"That works."

Akihara Kagura's expression immediately improved a lot.

Akihara Kagura couldn't help but take another look at that black half-face, thinking, this is the person who knows how to speak, more suitable to be a leader than Uchiha Obito!

Although Akihara Kagura knows this person has ill intentions, speaking so pleasantly and appearing capable, a bright future must be arranged for him in the future.

"Hmph..."

Uchiha Obito disdained these superficial words, coldly saying, "Although I'm also not pleased with their attitude, the two of them have good strength, which is also very useful for the growth of the Akatsuki organization..."

"Akatsuki?"

Akihara Kagura raised an eyebrow, as if catching an opportunity, and asked, "Is that the name of our organization?"

"Correct."

Uchiha Obito nodded, "When you officially join in the future, I will introduce you to the Akatsuki organization. For now, you are more important in Konoha than in Akatsuki."

Uchiha Obito recognized the importance of Akihara Kagura as a spy and coldly issued his order: "You must find a way to change the direction of Kakashi's investigation. Don't let his focus stay on those two. Kakashi and Konoha must not set their sights on the Akatsuki organization"

[System Prompt]: [New task: Change the direction of Hatake Kakashi's investigation to prevent Hatake Kakashi from uncovering the truth about the Akatsuki organization.]

"This won't be easy."

Akihara Kagura lowered his head, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Captain Kakashi won't let this lead go unless he finds other clues about you."

"To use my information to attract his attention?"

Uchiha Obito felt a headache coming on, somewhat dissatisfied: "In that case, wouldn't Kakashi, that waste, be forever focused on me?"

"We could think of it another way."

Akihara Kagura gently persuaded his superior: "This way, all of Captain Kakashi's future actions would be under your covert control"

"Let's do it that way!"

Uchiha Obito immediately made a decision, his eyes revealing a hint of sinister intent: "I might even turn the tables and use that idiot Kakashi to achieve my goals!"

When the time comes

The day the Eye of the Moon Plan is realized

Hatake Kakashi would never have imagined that he was also a pawn in the Eye of the Moon Plan. This person who opposed my plan, also supported my actions!

"However"

Akihara Kagura was very satisfied with his superior's wisdom, leisurely continuing: "The incident you caused in the Mist Village was too significant, Captain Kakashi might not believe that you're interested in small targets. It would be best if you could do something in a major ninja village"

This was secretly leading Uchiha Obito.

No matter if Uchiha Obito appears in a major ninja village or beside a small creek, Hatake Kakashi would follow him.

Akihara Kagura proactively suggested an idea: "If you could stir up some trouble in the Rock Village, Captain Kakashi would definitely take me with him to investigate. At that time, I could do more in the Rock Village, provoking a war between Konoha and the Rock Village"

""

Uchiha Obito's expression suddenly became strange.

Uchiha Obito looked at Akihara Kagura, skepticism apparent on his face: "Are you sure, this plan is to draw the attention of that idiot Kakashi and not for you, the little devil, to ignite a great ninja war?"

"This plan is a bit too extreme."

Uchiha Obito shook his head, wanting to reject the plan: "Although a great ninja war suits our interests, the Rock Village and Konoha cannot go to war"

Due to the geographical reasons of the ninja world.

If the Rock Village and the Konoha Village were to start a war, it would inevitably turn the smaller countries nestled between the Land of Earth and the Land of Fire into battlefields, with the Land of Rain facing the direct brunt of the conflict between these major powers.

Unfortunately, the base of the Akatsuki organization is located in the Land of Rain.

Currently, the nominal leader of the Akatsuki is a ninja from the Land of Rain, who cannot simply watch two major ninja villages wage war within the Land of Rain. This will inevitably involve the Akatsuki in the conflict.

This is completely contrary to the desire to keep the Akatsuki hidden.

"What about the Cloud Village?"

Following the logic of Akihara Kagura, Uchiha Obito shared his idea: "I'll go to the Cloud Village first to stir up some trouble. When Kakashi and you go to scout the Cloud Village, I can help you provoke a war between the Konoha and the Cloud..."

Geographically, if they instigate a war between the Cloud and the Konoha, it's unlikely that the Land of Rain would be dragged into it. Moreover, the Akatsuki might even receive mercenary work from other ninja villages.

If he could incite a war between the Konoha and the Cloud, other villages would definitely not sit idly by, especially the Rock Village, which has already started contacting the Akatsuki, seeking to hire them for difficult tasks.

"In theory, it's possible."

Akihara Kagura quickly nodded in agreement.

To prevent his work from being insufficient and not leading to a war in the future, Akihara Kagura preemptively vaccinated Uchiha Obito: "However, the higher-ups in the Konoha seem to not wish for war with the Cloud. The Cloud's strength is too formidable. Years ago, to avoid conflict with the Cloud, the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, even betrayed the members of the Hyuga clan to the Cloud..."

"Is that so..."

Uchiha Obito couldn't help but tap his fingers.

Uchiha Obito didn't realize that causing trouble in the Cloud might not necessarily restart a war between the Konoha and the Cloud, but the Cloud would definitely target Uchiha Obito, the rogue ninja from the Konoha.

Fortunately, there was someone who understood beside him.

But this understanding person also didn't consider Akihara Kagura's true purpose, which was to make Uchiha Obito an enemy of the world. His line of thought was very clear.

"I have a question."

The clone of White Zetzu named Awei, who had just been choked by Akihara Kagura, couldn't help but ask with a chuckle: "Why go to the trouble of starting a war? Why not find a way to kill Hatake Kakashi, who has been keeping an eye on Obito?"

Everyone present looked at the White Zetzu named Awei, even the pitcher plant monster didn't dare to speak.

It must be said.

This was a smart White Zetzu.

Uchiha Obito and Zetzu took a long time to decide that this White Zetzu named Awei was smart enough and would not make mistakes, capable of getting along well with Akihara Kagura.

However...

This smart White Zetzu had a flaw.

It thought it was the smartest one present.

Everyone there probably knew why Uchiha Obito had not chosen to kill Hatake Kakashi; perhaps he didn't care about Hatake Kakashi's life or death, but he definitely didn't want to see Hatake Kakashi die as part of his scheme.

"Too much talk, it might cause problems in the future."

Uchiha Obito reached out and grabbed the neck of the beast named Awei.

"Awei... Awei is going to die again..."

The beast named Awei was so frightened that it immediately struggled and stuck out its tongue.

"Actually, it makes some sense."

Akihara Kagura grabbed Uchiha Obito's wrist, saving his future companion: "I can think of a way to kill Captain Kakashi..."

"..."

Uchiha Obito fell silent.

This creature named Awei should have died a long time ago!

If possible, Uchiha Obito wished he could go back a few minutes and not stop Akihara Kagura from killing the beast;

If possible, Uchiha Obito also wouldn't mind not going back a few minutes, but he wished Akihara Kagura wouldn't stop him from killing the beast.

Uchiha Obito's expression became colder, and he chose to strongly argue against the questions raised by his subordinate: "That waste Kakashi doesn't deserve to go to the netherworld..."

That waste...

Doesn't deserve to accompany Rin's soul to the netherworld!

Uchiha Obito felt this argument was unconvincing and added: "Moreover, even if that waste Kakashi dies, it won't change the situation. Konoha already knows about me and those two from the Akatsuki organization. Konoha will only become more cautious because of Kakashi's death!"

"So that's how it is..."

Akihara Kagura slowly nodded.

"Alright, let's get back to our original topic."

After thinking for a while, Akihara Kagura continued: "If Cloud Village and Konoha accidentally start a war, my body has the Wood Release Kekkei Genkai, so there might not be a problem..."

Akihara Kagura changed the subject to Kakashi: "But my captain, Hatake Kakashi, might be forced to commit suicide, and his body would probably be sent to the Cloud Village to appease their anger. When appeasing the Cloud Village's anger back then, the Konoha higher-ups did this, the head of the Hyuga clan had his own brother forcibly take his place in suicide..."

"The Sand Village might also be an option..."

Uchiha Obito once again proposed his own idea: "The Sand Village's strength is weak, Konoha should never avoid a war with the Sand Village."

"Konoha and the Sand Village are allies."

Akihara Kagura raised an eyebrow and spread one hand: "Moreover, I've heard that the Sand Village's strength is quite feeble, even weaker than the Mist Village, I wonder if they can withstand me and Captain Kakashi..."

Not to put it too rudely...

Akihara Kagura could single-handedly suppress the entire Sand Village.

"You guys are too extreme."

The clone named Awei, a White Zetzu, came back to life, chirping: "Our goal isn't to plunge the ninja world into war, right?"

"Since killing Hatake Kakashi won't solve the problem, then we should divert Hatake Kakashi's attention away from the Akatsuki, isn't that enough?"

"..."

Uchiha Obito came to his senses.

Uchiha Obito felt that his thinking had been led astray by Akihara Kagura, tempted by this kid into wanting to start a great ninja war, forgetting his original purpose.

"This guy talks too much!"

Akihara Kagura kicked the White Zetzu clone away.

Akihara Kagura looked at Uchiha Obito, his smile returning: "Just now, you suggested that it wouldn't matter if the Cloud Village, the Sand Village, and the Konoha Village went to war, but specifically not the Rock Village. Does that mean a war involving the Konoha and Rock Villages would definitely affect the Akatsuki?"

"Let me guess..."

Akihara Kagura's smile grew wider: "The Akatsuki must be located within the area where war might break out, in the Land of Earth, the Land of Grass, the Land of Waterfalls, the Land of Rain?"

"..."

Uchiha Obito remained expressionless.

"It seems it should be in the Land of Rain then."

Akihara Kagura seemed to have read the answer from Uchiha Obito's expressionless face, smilingly said: "Then let's set our plan in the Rock Village. I can just take a detour through the Land of Rain to visit the Akatsuki's base..."

"..."

Uchiha Obito's expression soured.

How did this kid always guess his thoughts!

"This isn't exactly a detour..."

The clone named Awei jumped out again, correcting Akihara Kagura's mistake: "I once studied the geography of the ninja world!"

"If you want to go from the Konoha to the Rock Village in the Land of Earth, passing through the Land of Rain is the most troublesome, with too many mountainous roads, the weather is always heavy rain, the roads are muddy, plus there are wars within the Land of Rain, safety cannot be guaranteed..."

This clone named Awei seemed really knowledgeable, offering advice: "Let me tell you the shortest and most convenient route, which is through the Land of Grass. Just pass through the most dangerous and complex Bridge, and then it's smooth sailing ahead!"

"..."

Uchiha Obito's expression darkened.

Although this clone named Awei was hitting Akihara Kagura's face, mentioning the Bridge clearly made Uchiha Obito quite upset!

"Quite a broad range of knowledge"

Akihara Kagura couldn't help but praise it, reaching out to shake hands with it, leaving a leaf mark on its wrist: "Let's wish us a pleasant cooperation in advance!"

"Ohhh!"

This creature named Awei, a White Zetzu, immediately appeared very honored, bowed, and grasped Akihara Kagura's hand, asking proactively, "Then, may I plant some spores on you? To avoid any dangers I might face in the future, I want to set up some defensive measures in advance..."

"What are spores?"

Akihara Kagura, feigning ignorance, continued with a smile, "Don't worry about facing dangers in the future. I just left a Flying Thunder God mark on you. As soon as I sense you're in danger, I'll immediately come to help you resolve it..."

"If, I mean if..."

This White Zetzu named Awei is too clever, even to a pitiable extent, and asked softly, "If you suddenly want to kill me, could you also use this Flying Thunder God mark to appear instantly by my side and kill me?"

"So, we should let my true body plant spores on you, at least when you think of using chakra to kill me, the spores could grow and stop you from acting..."

This White Zetzu named Awei is very sincere, especially fond of telling the truth, "Young man, to me, you are the biggest danger..."

"How could that be?"

Young Akihara Kagura smiled and rebutted, treating it very sincerely, "We are companions, after all. Killing you would be too wasteful..."

White Zetzu.

All excellent experimental materials.

Whether it's for use as a sacrifice in forbidden jutsu experiments or to be sent to another superior, Orochimaru, as a gift, it's all top-notch material.

"Alright."

Uchiha Obito forcibly stopped the potential conflict and dispute between Akihara Kagura and this White Zetzu named Awei, instructing, "I hope you two will get along well in the future..."

"Just like you and Afei?"

This White Zetzu named Awei obviously knows a lot.

"Shut up!"

Uchiha Obito, reminded of the fool he used to be with day and night, continued sternly, "Zetzu and I will soon make some noise in the Rock Village..."

"As soon as there's news from there, I will take action immediately."

Akihara Kagura nodded quickly, agreeing, "I will definitely not let Captain Kakashi worry about those he shouldn't be concerned with..."

This White Zetzu named Awei immediately added to Akihara Kagura's words, "Make sure Hatake Kakashi focuses his attention on those he should care about."
