After dinner, Shin was about to go discuss important life matters with Mikoto. Just as he arrived outside Mikoto’s room, he suddenly frowned.
“Is Zetsu contacting me?”
Shin had given Zetsu a Flying Thunder God Kunai so that he could contact him if something happened.
As long as chakra was channeled into the Flying Thunder God Kunai, Shin would be able to sense it.
“I’ll go take a look.”
Shin decided to go check it out. After saying a few words to the girls, Shin left and instantly appeared in front of Zetsu.
—
“Zetsu, is there something urgent?”
Shin looked at Zetsu calmly. Since he had used the Flying Thunder God Kunai to contact him, it must be something important, Zetsu wouldn’t dare disturb him otherwise.
“Shin-sama, there is indeed an urgent matter to report—regarding Obito’s movements,” White Zetsu replied.
Black Zetsu remained silent.
“Obito’s movements?”
Shin suddenly found the situation interesting. Zetsu was actually telling him Obito Uchiha’s movements. Logically, Black Zetsu and White Zetsu should be more inclined towards Obito Uchiha.
Inwardly, Black Zetsu and White Zetsu were reluctant to share Obito’s plans, but they feared angering Shin and jeopardizing Madara’s plan.
To be precise, it was Black Zetsu’s idea to appease Shin. Besides, revealing Obito’s current movements was inconsequential.
“Shin-sama, Obito plans to attack Konoha,” White Zetsu reported.
“Attack Konoha? Is the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki about to give birth?”
Combining it with the original story, Shin immediately guessed.
White Zetsu was surprised. This was classified information; how did Shin know?
The Nine-Tails Jinchūriki’s pregnancy was a closely guarded secret. During pregnancy, the seal weakened, especially during childbirth. If this information leaked, it could lead to attacks, especially from other Hidden Villages.
“Indeed, Shin-sama. The Nine-Tails Jinchūriki is about to give birth, and Obito intends to use this opportunity to release the Nine-Tails and attack Konoha,”
White Zetsu told Shin Obito Uchiha’s plan completely.
The plan was simple: infiltrate Konoha—release the Nine-Tails during childbirth when the seal was weakened, and then watch the chaos unfold. Obito’s motive was revenge against his teacher, Minato Namikaze.
He still held a grudge against Minato for not saving him when he was crushed by a boulder. And when Rin died, that grudge intensified into hatred.
Minato hadn’t saved him, hadn’t saved Rin. Obito no longer saw Minato as his teacher, only as an enemy. He was also getting revenge on Konoha.
As for Kakashi Hatake, it wasn’t that Obito didn’t hate Kakashi, but he still had some feelings left and couldn’t bring himself to attack his good friend.
—
“When is Obito leaving?” Shin asked, pondering whether to join the fun.
To the Naruto world, the Nine-Tails’ rampage is a historic event. How could he not go and see such a major event?
“He leaves for Konoha tomorrow night.”
“Good to know.” After Shin finished speaking, he returned directly to The Land of Whirlpools.
It wasn’t until tomorrow night, so there was no need to rush. Shin was still anxious to go back and sleep with Mikoto.
After returning, Shin went straight to Mikoto’s room.
—
Early the next morning, Shin came out of Mikoto’s room and was greeted by the resentful gazes of Kushina and the others.
“You two don’t care at all, it was so noisy last night,” Kushina said resentfully.
They hadn’t slept well, though that wasn’t a big deal for them. It was mostly because it was distracting and… awkward.
Especially Mei Terumi, who said that she was still a little girl who hadn’t experienced anything, so why did they make her listen to this?
“Ahem, next time I’ll develop a soundproofing sealing technique next time.” Shin coughed awkwardly.
“Where’s Mikoto? Too embarrassed to come out?” Tsunade asked.
Shin shook his head. Not embarrassed—just exhausted.
“I’m going to Konoha today. Something big is about to happen. Anyone want to come?” Shin changed the subject.
“I don’t have time.” Tsunade was desperately training Wood Release. She had never been so serious, perhaps Kushina’s success was motivating her.
“I’m in!” Kushina volunteered immediately. She was bored, and a “Big Event” sounded interesting.
“Tsunade, it’s about Konoha. Are you sure you don’t want to go?” Kushina poked Tsunade’s arm and asked.
“No, I’m not interested in Konoha anymore. I don’t want to get involved.” Tsunade was determined to sever her ties with Konoha. She didn’t want to get entangled in their affairs anymore. It was better to stay away.
“Suits me.” Kushina grinned, then looked at Konan. “Konan, you coming?”
“I’d like to, but if I go, who will cook?” Konan couldn’t help but say.
As for Mikoto—She probably wouldn’t have the strength to do anything until noon, let alone cook.
Kushina, seeing Konan couldn’t go, felt a pang of disappointment—but inwardly, she was thrilled. It would be just her and Shin.
As for the last one, Mei Terumi? Kushina looked at Mei Terumi with a threatening gaze.
“Mei, you’re not thinking of coming, are you?”
Faced with Kushina’s threatening gaze, what could Mei Terumi do?
Did she want to go? Of course, Mei Terumi wanted to go, but she couldn’t ignore Kushina’s threat.
“I don’t want to go,”
Mei Terumi said dejectedly. She really wanted to join in the fun, but she had to back down in the face of Kushina.
There was nothing she could do, because Kushina was stronger than her, and Mei Terumi could only swallow her grievances.
