Land of Wind,
On the outskirts of Sunagakure, in the desert.
Under Kyo's watch, the battle between Deidara and the One-Tail Jinchuriki,
Officially began.
However,
Kyo was always distracted and didn't pay attention to this battle.
Because in fact,
After Kabuto left,
Kyo always felt something was off in his heart.
After all,
The timing of this fake Las Noches incident...
Was a bit too coincidental.
In the past seven or eight years,
Not once had it appeared.
And this time,
Just two days ago,
They had just exposed the true identity of the masked man Obito and kicked him out of Akatsuki.
Not long after,
Kabuto immediately started gathering intelligence about the appearance of a fake Las Noches.
These two things,
Seemed unrelated.
After all,
One was Akatsuki, one was Las Noches.
Completely unrelated.
However,
If one looked at this coincidental timing and made a bold guess,
What if it was that masked man Obito, after learning he was kicked out of Akatsuki, who actively planned this incident?
Realizing this possibility,
Kyo's heart suddenly calmed slightly, and his gaze instantly lit up.
The next moment,
A faint smile appeared on his face.
If that were really the case,
Then it would be,
Very interesting...
What was Obito's real purpose?
Was it to divert Akatsuki's attention through Las Noches?
Or was he really targeting Las Noches?
Or,
Did he... want to replace Las Noches?
Under the moonlight,
Kyo's gaze reflected the moonlight, clear and cold.
And on his face, there was always a faint smile.
Regardless of the possibility,
Things were starting to get interesting.
Thinking this,
Kyo decided to go and see for himself.
After all,
Kabuto's strength was indeed limited.
If it really came to a fight, he would probably be beaten up by Obito, which would be a loss.
Moreover,
His foot speed and perception were not strong,
The desert of the Land of Wind was so vast,
By the time he found it,
Akatsuki's first round of the Tailed Beast Capture Plan might already be over.
That wouldn't be good.
After considering everything, Kyo decided to go personally.
Thinking this.
He raised his hand, and a black sphere appeared in it.
He curled his lips and muttered to himself with a light smile:
"It seems I haven't used this item for a long time..."
"It sure brings back memories."
As he spoke,
He rapidly injected his own Spiritual Pressure into it.
Bang!
The next moment,
A flash of white Spiritual Pressure,
The spiritual power on the black sphere in his hand rapidly expanded and solidified, finally transforming into a clone identical to Kyo.
That's right.
This item,
Was the portable Reigai that Kyo had used before.
However,
Unlike before,
This Reigai was now at LV.MAX.
Both its defense and mobility had been greatly enhanced.
It could almost reach about 1/3 of Kyo's strength.
Therefore, its existence time was much longer than before, about five times longer.
After finishing,
Kyo smiled, raised his hand, condensed Spiritual Pressure, and gently tapped the air.
Bang!
Space instantly cracked like a mirror, revealing the nothingness and darkness inside.
Then,
Kyo stepped into it without looking back.
As for Deidara's side,
There was completely no need to worry.
Although the portable Reigai only had about 1/3 of Kyo's original body's strength, it was naturally still easy to suppress Gaara and Shukaku.
As for Kyo himself,
Of course, he was going to find that fake Las Noches...
The night sky was gorgeous, full of stars.
The yellow sand appeared white like waves at night, magnificent beyond compare.
Kyo flew through the sky, looking down at the landscape below, marveling.
Thinking back,
Back then,
In the system's hidden territory,
He had lived in this desert for a full ten years.
At that time,
Since the genuine Hueco Mundo did not have the change of day and night,
He thought the nights and days he saw were all illusions shown to him by the system.
But,
He never expected,
There was no so-called system illusion,
What he saw,
Had always been the real desert of the Land of Wind.
It had to be said,
Such magnificent scenery could not be experienced in a small place like Amegakure.
Although the Land of Wind was poor, it was not lacking in such vast landscapes.
While marveling,
Kyo's Spiritual Pressure Perception naturally covered the surroundings.
Soon,
It had already surpassed Kabuto walking on the ground,
And also,
Surpassed countless bounty hunters searching for Las Noches.
Undoubtedly,
They, like Kabuto, had all received the same intelligence.
Then,
To compete for the so-called Las Noches's treasure and Sharingan, they came here...
However,
Kyo naturally ignored them.
He just continued moving quickly in the same direction.
Intuition told him,
The destination was not far off.
Two minutes later.
A strange white building began to appear in Kyo's perception.
The suddenness of it,
Was like suddenly seeing an isolated island in the boundless expanse.
Instantly,
Kyo's attention completely focused on it.
However,
Due to the distance,
He could not perceive the situation inside.
So,
Kyo immediately focused his mind and flew in that direction.
Finally,
He stopped when he could see clearly with the naked eye.
And at this moment,
His Spiritual Pressure Perception,
Could already see the entire building and its interior crystal clear.
And at the moment he saw clearly,
Kyo's gaze suddenly froze.
Inside the building, on the throne,
Sat a figure dressed all in white, and on his face... he was actually wearing an evil ghost mask like a lone wolf...
Even at his waist, he wore a strange pure white sword...
This strange appearance,
No matter how you looked at it,
It seemed a bit like a crude imitation of Kyo's Hollowfied Kitsune Ogre mask...
It directly left Kyo between laughter and tears...
What the hell,
This guy is simply a talent...
And next,
Kyo naturally also detected this wolf-mask guy's identity from his soul aura.
This familiar feeling,
Absolutely no mistake,
It was Obito!
Seeing his pretentious appearance,
Kyo couldn't help but laugh.
So it was him after all...
But,
This was different from what I thought.
This guy,
Was imitating me...?
That is to say,
He really was playing the role of Las Noches...?
Realizing this,
Kyo immediately raised an eyebrow.
Looking at it this way,
His purpose couldn't possibly be simply to distract Akatsuki's attention.
He must have some designs on Las Noches...
Could it be that after being kicked out of Akatsuki, he wanted to join another organization?
Kyo pondered in his heart.
A moment later,
He decided to go and explain things in person.
Thinking this,
Kyo raised his hand, placed it before his face, and muttered with a light smile:
"Let me play with you for a bit —"
Hollowfication!
Boom!
The moment the words fell,
Pure white Hollow Spiritual Pressure suddenly burst forth from his hands,
Like moonlight, instantly covering his entire body!
Dyeing everything around him,
All into a stark, murderous white!
Silver hair, white sword,
Hollow attire, and
Kitsune Ogre mask.
And at this moment,
The moment his Hollowfication Spiritual Pressure exploded,
In the building below,
White Mask Obito, who had been sitting on the throne, suddenly felt a great shock in his heart, his expression abruptly changing!
The next moment,
A look of shock and excitement instantly appeared in his eyes!
This familiar dangerous aura...?!
No, no mistake!
It was definitely that guy!!
It must be him!!
Realizing this,
Obito instantly stood up from the throne, revealing a scheming smile, and muttered to himself smugly:
"Ah..."
"Just as I expected... the Kitsune Ogre of Las Noches!"
