Behind the Scenes in Naruto World - Chapter 159
After Uehara left.
Countless origami pieces flew into the highest towers of Amegakure, and Konan’s figure appeared in front of Nagato’s room. After she opened the door and walked in, she frowned and asked, “Nagato, why is it only you here? Where is Naraku?”
“Cough, cough…”
After Nagato coughed a few times and whispered, “Didn’t you also get news of the change in Kusagakure some time ago? I asked Uehara to deal with it.”
“…”
Konan frowned.
Just as Konan was about to turn around and leave, Nagato began to persuade her, “Konan, don’t push him too hard. At this age, he wants to do something big by himself.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Konan nodded and said softly, “I just came here to tell him that I will allow him to become an official member, but he must hide his identity. The future leader of Amegakure cannot be contaminated with darkness.”
After speaking, Konan added, “Forget it, since he has left, let’s tell him when he comes back!”
Nagato’s eyes were faintly showing pity, “It seems like Uehara’s luck is not very good. I hope that little guy won’t cause any more trouble.”
Fate was always magical.
Uehara didn’t know anything about their talk.
He was still looking for the secret base where Obito and Zetsu hid away, but soon after leaving Amegkure, he met Black Zetsu, who was waiting for him.
Black Zetsu gloomily stopped Uehara and asked, “Uehara, after going to Konoha, did you find any information about Konoha’s Kyuubi?”
“Well, I already have information about Kyuubi and Ichibi Jinchuriki.”
Uehara nodded, and his face slowly became serious, “But I also got another piece of information. I believe that Senpai should have also received the news about the Anbu codenamed Orphan’s betrayal, right? Is Obito-senpai really a Konoha spy?”
“How was this possible?”
Black Zetsu shook his head and said with a smile, “Obito is very concerned about the Eye of the Moon Plan. How could he be Konoha’s spy?”
“I can finally rest assured.”
Uehara nodded. Of course, he didn’t just say a word of nonsense but seriously took advantage of Black Zetsu’s precautions.
Although Obito was not yet Konoha’s spy.
When Uehara returned from Kusagakure, Black Zetsu would start to believe that Obito became one of “Konoha’s spy”. In turn, Obito would believe that Orochimaru was the spy that revealed his information!
At that point, Uchiha Obito, Black Zetsu, and Orochimaru would prepare to start a big fight. Uehara dared not say anything else, but Black Zetsu had to be a loser.
Black Zetsu did not know that Uehara wanted to sell his information. Instead, he nodded with admiration, “Very well, as long as we collect enough information, we are one step closer to the Eye of the Moon Plan.”
“Ok.”
Uehara nodded seriously and continued softly, “Senpai, we are doing the Eye of the Moon Plan behind the scenes. Don’t disclose it to others.”
“Don’t worry. I will pay attention.”
Zetsu’s body slowly retracted to the ground.
The corners of Uehara’s mouth twitched slightly. If we don’t disclose the news, Obito can be the only one who revealed the information!
Regardless, this matter needed to be handled carefully.
It’s best to make a plan.
Uehara’s experiment with the Shadow Clone skill and Inherent Glamour skill was a success, so he could find ways to reveal the information cryptically.
Obito really was pitiful.
Now on Konoha’s side, Obito was a traitor who assassinated the Fourth Hokage couple and caused the Kyuubi Rampage for Sarutobi.
On Nagato’s and Konan’s side, Obito was a murderer who wanted to murder his junior and was suspected as Konoha’s spy.
In the future, on Black Zetsu’s side, Obito would become a whistleblower, a despicable Uchiha, a traitor of the Eye of the Moon Plan, and so on.
“Go and do business first!”
Uehara’s body floated in the air, flying slowly to the Land of Grass, and, along the way, checked his reward for defeating Tenzo.
[Side Mission: Defeat Tenzo/Yamato (1/1)]
[Reward: A Hidden Inheritance Mission.]
[Hidden Inheritance Mission: The forest holds many surprises. Say the correct name.]
Uehara did not hesitate too much. After all, there were very few heroes with wood attributes, “Zyra, Rise of the Thorns…”
[Mission complete. You have unlocked the Legacy of Heroes.]
[Deadly Spines: Summon a bunch of thick thorny vines in the target area. These vines will explode and release countless wooden thorns in the area. Consumes a minimum of 70 Chakra. Cooldown, 3 seconds.]
[Grasping Root: Shoot out vines that quickly restrain an enemy’s actions. Consumes a minimum of 70 Chakra. Cooldown, 5 seconds.]
[Strangle Thorn: Summon the wrath of nature by releasing dense thorny vines in a wide area. These vines will automatically attack enemies within its area. Consumes a minimum of 100 Chakra. Cooldown, 45 seconds.]
These all belong to the Mokuton(Wood Release) category.
Uehara was actually looking forward to getting the genuine Mokuton.
After going to the Land of Grass this time, if he had the opportunity, he would have time to trouble Orochimaru and see if he can get a more powerful Mokuton ninjutsu after defeating Senju Hashirama.
In addition to Senju Hashirama, the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama was known as the strongest water ninjutsu user. There were also the two powerful forbidden techniques, Impure World Reincarnation and Living Corpse Reincarnation, that Orochimaru needed to turn in. These were all precious leeks!
How long has it been since he had cut the leeks grown by Orochimaru?
Naturally, you can’t just know how to harvest, you also had to learn to cultivate, and along the way, he would check if Kabuto found a way to learn Ry?chi Cave’s Sage mode.
According to Uehara’s guess, the next step in advancing his Sage Mode should be to defeat the Sage mode of the three holy places.
“Sage Mode, Open!”
Uehara’s fingers landed on the curse seal on his arm, and the natural energy contained in it poured into his body, making him feel the power in his body increase rapidly!
His back seems to be suppressing something. It’s a little itchy!
After a while, Uehara suddenly grew two pairs of white wings!
In an instant, Uehara felt a qualitative change in the power in his body, as all the chakras converted into Sage Chakra!
Sage Mode, The Second Form of Ascension!
When the Sage mode state was turned on, Uehara was a little surprised. After the sage mode was turned on, his status improved beyond belief.
[The Second Form of Ascension (Opened): Chakra automatically converts into Sage Chakra, the cooldown time of all skills is reduced by 100%, the life energy is increased by 400%, the life energy recovery rate is increased by 400%, and the sage energy recovery rate is increased by 400%]
*****
Life Energy: 57124 points (Sage Mode)
Sage Chakra Energy: 14765 points (Sage Mode)
Life Energy Recovery Rate: 36 points per second (Sage Mode)
Sage Chakra Recovery Rate: 24 points per second (Sage Mode)
Sage Mode Chakra Consumption Rate: 10 points per second
*****
Uehara frowned and glanced at his skill panel. Aside from the cooldown time that disappeared, the skill consumption did not change, and this meant that if he used some powerful skills to bombard wildly, his Sage Mode would not last long.
“Seems like these wings can be for flying? Can they be used for physical combat?”
Uehara controlled the two pairs of white wings behind him and flew up. His speed has increased by about four times, making him feel as if he has been strengthened.
It would be great if the two pairs of wings on the back could be put away…
Wouldn’t he be able to maintain Sage Mode freely?
However, these two pairs of white wings symbolize Uehara’s opening of the Sage Mode, just like the toad eye pupils of the Mount Myuboku Sage Mode. They couldn’t be retracted at all!
Aside from being handsome, these two pairs of wings were useless…
Things like wings had always been humankind’s dreams!
Humans had always been standing on the ground, so humans were always eager to fly.
Uehara sighed and flew towards the Kusagakure at a super high speed, practically leaving an afterimage in the air!
After flying for a while, Uehara suddenly realized a problem. His thought process was too narrow.
In the Sage Mode state, his skills have no cooldown time at all. Not only could it be used to bombard the enemy wildly, but it could also be used to speed up the journey. For example, the Destiny skill that had a long cooldown time has no cooldown time now.
“Destiny!”
An elusive smile suddenly appeared on Uehara’s face, and then his body suddenly disappeared in the air, and a series of ultra-long distance travels and investigations finally began.
A few minutes later.
Uehara completed the investigation of the entire Land of Grass’s border and finally locked the position of a person and a group of White Zetsu.
Uehara stood on a big tree, looking down at a closed cave.
Uehara’s eyes faintly glowed with a touch of gold, which was signified his use of Hunting Rhythm. He looked at the ground under the cave carefully. The smile in the corner of his mouth could hardly be concealed, “It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you, Obito-senpai….”
