Chapter 101: The Delegation to HuayinTazuna had just witnessed Naruto's immense strength, and now hearing that he was leaving to send the two Ninjas back, he immediately voiced his objection: "If you leave, then what am I supposed to..."Before he could finish, Naruto used the Flying Thunder God and vanished. Seeing this happen right before his eyes clearly shocked him. Tazunahad no choice but to ask cautiously: "Now that there are only three of you left, can you protect me?"Sasuke and Robin ignored him and walked straight past him; only Kakashi stepped forward to offer a few words of comfort.After arriving at Huayin Village, Naruto handed the two Ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village over to Kakuzu and told him that these two were extremely dangerous individuals and that it would be basically impossible to subdue them."Keep them imprisoned for now, and once the mission here is over, I will use Kotoamatsukami on them."Although the strength of these two was average, they were, after all, free labor. Kakuzu's eyes squinted into slits as he smiled, his gaze filled with greed as he looked at them.This terrified the two Ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village, who thought that this person, who seemed like a pervert, had some unsavory hobbies.Naruto was very reassured to leave everything here to Kakuzu. After inquiring about the situation in the Village, he hurried back.But then something unexpected happened: Zabuzaand Haku did not appear! They delivered Tazuna to his destination without any obstacles.This was truly beyond Naruto's expectations, and it was the first time since he had transmigrated that he felt things were slipping out of his control.He couldn't help but start to wonder if the timeline of this plane had already changed because of his appearance. For the first time, Naruto found himself conflicted about his own actions.But before he could figure all this out, news came from Itachi.That night, as Naruto was lying in bed preparing to rest, he suddenly felt an extremely familiar Chakraapproaching.He quickly got up to check and discovered a crow standing outside his window. He knew that Itachi must have something to report.Naruto quickly opened the window. The crow flew in, instantly dissolved into a pile of feathers, and then a surge of Sharingan ocular power entered his mind.Naruto closed his eyes tightly to examine the information inside. It turned out that Itachi had successfully persuaded the Akatsuki Organizationto feign Kisame's capture, then use the hands of Huayin Village to bring him to the Daimyo of the Land of Fire to complete the mission.Afterward, they would coordinate from the inside and outside, with Kisame, Orochimaru, Itachi, and Sasori collectively executing the plan to destroy the high-ranking officials of the Land of Fire.Upon hearing this news, Naruto could be said to be both happy and worried. Happy, because a very important part of his plan was finally about to unfold, and he could take this opportunity to bring Kisame and Sasori into his fold.Worried, because Kisame and Sasori were appearing at the same time, while his Kotoamatsukami could only be used once every ten days. Furthermore, he was hesitating about whether he should intervene; if this plan succeeded, would it cause more unknown changes in the future?But it was useless to think about these things now; all he could do was take it one step at a time. Although many members of the Akatsuki Organization were now his subordinates, he was actually still unable to change their operational missions.After all, their true leader was Obito, and even Nagato held a status above these people. The plan was already set; all he could do was cooperate and try his best to profit from it.A month later, news spread throughout the Land of Fire: two Ninjas from Huayin Village had encountered the wanted rogue Ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village, Kisame and Biwa Jūzō.After a fierce battle, Biwa Jūzō was critically wounded and killed on the spot, while Kisame was eventually defeated and captured alive. He was now being escorted to the Land of Fire.This was the first time Huayin Village had officially appeared in the public eye. Although many people had heard of them, they didn't know much about them, and frankly, they hadn't really taken this newly established Village seriously.But this time, Huayin Village truly shocked these people. No one had expected such a small Villageto be so strong, completing an S-rank mission on their very first attempt.However, this event had both pros and cons. Although it raised the Village's profile, it also caught the attention of people like Danzo.During this time, more and more people came to join Huayin Village, including quite a few Ninjas. Among them, they discovered many spies sent by other countries, and there were also many members of Root.The time was not yet ripe, so the matter of the Uchiha Clan could not yet be known to outsiders. Therefore, Fugaku and the others had to be kept in hiding for now.The perimeter of their clan was tightly shielded by Yamato using Wood Release, and it was publicly announced as top-secret coastal defense for Huayin Village. Anyone who trespassed without permission would be killed on sight.Such words might deter some ordinary people, but those spies naturally wouldn't care. However, after Ninjas were found dead nearby for three consecutive days, the restless elements finally decreased.However, some who were confident in their own strength still chose to take the risk. An elite Joninbelonging to Root, after some time had passed and thinking that the matter had settled down and that Huayin Village might have relaxed, seized an opportunity to infiltrate one night.His strength was indeed good, but that didn't change the fact that his fate was the same as the others. However, because of his special status, the death of this elite Jonin from Root still brought trouble to Huayin Village.Upon learning that his capable assistant had died in that mysterious little Village, Danzo was furious and decided to go and see for himself what this small, recently prominent Village was all about.This put everyone in a difficult spot. Danzopossessed the Sharingan, and Wood Release could not block his line of sight. However, this was easy to handle; they just needed to add a layer of sealing on the outside.What was worse was that if he came over, not only could the Uchiha Clan not be discovered, but even Kakuzu and the others could not show their faces. After all, if Danzo recognized them, everything would be over.In order to be able to use Kotoamatsukami on both Kisame and Sasori at the same time, Narutodecided to set off immediately to find Shisui and Hizashi.At this moment, they were about two weeks' journey from their destination. The original plan was to launch the destruction plan when judging Kakuzu.In this way, the ten-day cooldown for Kotoamatsukami would be exactly finished. Moreover, he couldn't help much with Danzo going to Huayin Village; he was the person who most needed to keep his identity hidden right now.In the end, Shikaku came up with a plan. He had Tsunade make an official friendly visit to Huayin Village, bringing all of Konoha's high-ranking officials with her.In this way, there would be plenty of manpower and opportunities to monitor and restrict Danzo's actions, giving him no chance to act alone, and they could all return together when they left.The group of four high-ranking Advisors in Konohaseemed to have formed a habit. Whether they wanted to weaken her power or reduce her authority, they would symbolically oppose whatever decision Tsunade made.This time, the reason they found was that the Hokage could not easily leave the Village, but clearly, this reason was far too far-fetched.In the end, the Hokage's assistant, Asuma, was left behind to temporarily handle all matters related to the Village, while all other high-ranking officials, including Kakashi, headed to Huayin Village.
