Behind the Scenes in Naruto World - Chapter 162
Flames filled the sky.
Uehara, flying above the flames, casually took out a ring and put it in his finger. After inserting Chakra on it, he whispered, “My task is complete. There will be no more Kusagakure in the future.”
“Then come back!”
Nagato’s voice sounded a little relaxed, and he whispered, “Once you come back, Konan and I arranged a surprise for you.”
“Hahaha… a surprise…”
Uehara smiled coolly and whispered into the ring, “I found some collaboration between them and Orochimaru. I want to see if I can find traces of Orochimaru again. My Chakra is exhausted, so let’s talk again when I come back!”
What surprise?
Do Nagato and Konan know what a surprise was!
According to his understanding of Nagato and Konan, after returning home, he might become the leader of Amegakure as well as the leader of Akatsuki.
That wouldn’t be fun to him. Wasn’t it more fun to plot about Orochimaru, Black Zetsu, and Obito?
What’s more, the Kusagakure was now destroyed.
It wouldn’t be long before Iwa and got the news, and they would all send a large number of ninjas into the Land of Grass. Uehara could still cause trouble here. Doing something like this was better than going back to Amegakure and sitting around every day. Even funding for human development activities was much more enjoyable.
Uehara retracted the wings behind him and reopened his attribute panel. Dark Harvest increased his basic attributes by over 10,000 points this time, which was far more than what he got during Konoha Collapse Plan.

Although his life energy and Chakra had grown higher, their basic recovery rate seemed a little low. According to its current recovery speed, Uehara would take at least an hour to recover his chakra.
“Twilight Shroud · Fog Formation!”
A cloud of mist instantly covered Uehara’s surroundings, and Uehara’s Chakra quickly recovered.
Uehara quietly turned on the Destiny skill to find the whereabouts of Orochimaru, and the corner of his mouth turned up, “Orochimaru is so fast, then be prepared to receive good news from me!”
Otogakure.
After Orochimaru rushed back, he immediately received a piece of good news from Kabuto.
“Kabuto, I have negotiated with the Kusagakure. For a while, we will make some weapons to exchange them for the resources and money we need.”
“…”
Kabuto’s face was a bit unsightly.
If Kabuto did not make a mistake in his calculations, Uehara should have already arrived at the Kusagakure, and this Ninja Village would be gone.
Orochimaru-sama was really miserable!
Orochimaru had just negotiated a big deal, and before he could make a profit, Uehara destroyed the other party.
Kabuto sighed quietly in his heart and did not answer Orochimaru’s words directly. Instead, he led him to the experimental table and shifted the topic, “Orochimaru-sama, come and see what this is…”
“This is?
“White Zetsu.”
Kabuto slowly raised his head, looking directly at Orochimaru, and said in a deep voice, “A person named Black Zetsu suddenly sent a White Zetsu and asked me to use a living White Zetsu to perform the Hashirama cell transplantation experiment.
Black Zetsu seemed to know about the experiment we were doing.
I fought it once, but I couldn’t do anything to it. Then it invited us to kill Obito and gave me a map, telling me that there are a lot of White Zetsu hidden here for us to use.”
Kabuto pointed to White Zetsu’s corpse on the experimental table and said in a low voice, “So I could only perform a Hashirama cell transplantation experiment in advance when it gave it to me…”
“And the results of it?”
Orochimaru’s expression was a bit anxious, but when he saw the wooden thorns on the experiment table, a cold-blooded smile appeared in the snake-like pupils, “It looks like the experiment was a success, right?”
“Yes.”
Kabuto pushed up his glasses and untied his sleeve, and a sharp wooden thorn had caused his arm an injury. He whispered, “Mokuton’s recovery ability is very powerful, and their ninjutsu is also very strange and terrifying…”
“Hahahahaha…”
The smile on Orochimaru’s face widen, “Just after awakening Mokuto, it has the power to match you? It seems that our research is not a mistake… It is a pity that we lost a living White Zetsu.”
“That Black Zetsu has already given us information.”
Kabuto slowly took out a scribbled map and a precise map. The former was left to him by Uehara, and Kabuto redrew the latter. It was probably the rigor of a scientist.
Kabuto put the two maps on the table and whispered, “This is the area where Black Zetsu invited Orochimaru-sama to attack Uchiha Obito. As long as we deal with Uchiha Obito, we should be able to get information on White Zetsu.”
After speaking, Kabuto added, “Unfortunately, I can’t tell if there’s any conspiracy behind it. After all, we don’t know who Black Zetsu is. I’m unsure whether he wants to cooperate or plans to borrow others to ambush us… After all, the location is quite well hidden.”
Orochimaru suddenly smiled and said, “Kabuto, how many people in the Ninja world can defeat me?”
“Nobody.”
Kabuto pushed his glasses and agreed, “Since the Konoha collapse plan ended, every powerful ninja in the ninja world should know that Orochimaru-sama perfected the Impure World Reincarnation. Even if it is only the First and Second Hokage.”
“Now I can even attack the Land of Rain to kill Pain and seize his Rinnegan! Let’s go to this location and have a look!”
Orochimaru licked his lips and chuckled, “Even if someone wants to use me to kill Uchiha Obito, I just happen to want to kill him and seize his Mangekyou Sharingan! In addition, there are also the White Zetsu that we need there…”
“Understand.”
Kabuto nodded solemnly, “However, Uchiha Obito’s ability is too weird. We must first uncover Black Zetsu’s plan. On one hand, we can try to obtain Black Zetsu’s intelligence from Uchiha Obito, and on the other hand, we can find a chance to attack him!”
“Hehe, I have a guess regarding who Black Zetsu is .”
Orochimaru touched his chin and thought of Akatsuki’s Zetsu. He lowered his head and chuckled, “But this proposal is good too. But to fight against spatial ninjutsu, one can only use spatial ninjutsu.”
White Zetsu’s lure was too strong for Orochimaru. Whether it was Impure World Reincarnation or Living Corpse Reincarnation, these two both required the use of White Zetsu.
The moment Orochimaru learned of the location of White Zetsu, he couldn’t bear it anymore and immediately planned to go to the marked location on the map with Kabuto.
Although Obito’s ability was weird, Orochimaru also had forbidden techniques on hand, plus the First and Second Hokage.
A creature such as White Zetsu was related to immortality and science. So Orochimaru dared fight them to death in order to get them!
He has many lives anyway.
Orochimaru and Kabuto did not need to do too much preparation. They only brought two coffins that sealed the First and Second Hokage and went directly to the marked location on the map.
White Zetsu’s base.
Obito still lived here in seclusion.
Except for the occasional visit to Rin’s grave, Obito didn’t bother to worry about the world’s troubles. All he had to do was wait.
Just wait.
Waiting for the Eye of the Moon Plan to start before capturing the Bijuu. Obito would leave here and find a way to cooperate with Black Zetsu to help the Akatsuki catch the Bijuu.
Obito looked at a pair of scrolls. Next to him was a flower pot with vines planted in it, and on the vine was a blooming white flower.
How could there be white flowers in a base buried deep underground?
When Obito practiced Mokuton Ninjutsu, he created. The reclusive life he had lived the past few years was not without benefits, as Obito’s strength had become stronger.
“Obito, something is wrong.”
A White Zetsu intruded into Obito’s room and whispered, “We just sensed two Chakras approaching here, and one of them is Orochimaru!”
“Oh?”
Obito slowly raised his head and curiously asked, “How did he find this place? Did he pass by here?”
“No, his destination is our base.”
White Zetsu shook his head immediately since there were still many White Zetsu sleeping and had not yet awakened. The fighting power in this base only included Obito.
Obito raised his eyebrows and slowly put down the scroll, “It’s fine. I will deal with him, but you guys must find out how Orochimaru discovered our base.”
Just as Obito got up and planned to leave the base to fight, another White Zetsu came in, “Wait, someone sent information just now. It seems like someone is tracking Orochimaru behind, and it is likely that it’s that kid Uehara Naraku!”
“Uehara Naraku?”
Obito’s muddy face suddenly became more complicated.
Back then, because he wanted to kill Uehara, so Nagato and Konan expelled him from the Akatsuki organization, and even Black Zetsu couldn’t stand his brainlessness.
Later, he heard that the little fellow Uehara often praised him and said many times that he had forgiven Obito for trying to kill him back then for the Eye of the Moon Plan.
Judging from Uehara’s various actions, the kid seems easily persuaded. And also, judging from his performance, it appears that he has no opinions of his own.
So Obito no longer has any hatred for Uehara.
Of course, Obito also didn’t like Uehara because he thought Uehara was an idiot kid with no brains and only had good luck.
Well, he also has a little cleverness and ninjutsu talent.
After all, even Black Zetsu praised Uehara’s talent many times. You had to know that a little guy without any bloodline limit nor secret techniques managed to kill the Kage of a village!
Moreover, when he killed the Fourth Kazekage that year, Uehara was only twelve years old; now, he dared to assassinate the Third Hokage and succeeded at the age of sixteen!
Those things didn’t matter to Obito.
As long as he was willing to do it, he could do it too.
After all, the Fourth Kazekage had always been a waste, and the Third Hokage was also old. After the fierce battle between Orochimaru and the Third Hokage, Uehara just picked up a leak.
Obito suddenly turned his head and said, “Uehara Naraku, that kid is ours, right? Why is he following Orochimaru?”
“He is indeed ours.”
A White Zetsu thought for a while and seriously responded, “It’s probably because of Akatsuki’s mission, right? After all, Orochimaru is Akatsuki’s traitor!”
“It is indeed possible.”
The other White Zetsu nodded and accepted the stubborn words. After Konoha’s Chunin Exam, Uehara found the trail of Orochimaru, so he followed him in secret.”
“But the current Orochimaru is not easy to handle.”
The previous White Zetsu shook his head and said in a deep voice, “I heard that Orochimaru has completed the Impure World Reincarnation and resurrected the First and Second Hokage. Is it for this reason that Uehara didn’t dare to make a move?
“That is also true….”
The two White Zetsu turned their heads and looked at Obito, “Obito, will you help him?”
“They happen to be around here, so…”
Obito sighed quietly, slowly putting on a light black coat.
After Obito put on his clothes and sighed, “Then I will help him once! After all, he has been helping me in front of Nagato and Konan, and I haven’t seen this kid for a long time…”
Above the ground.
Uehara did not hide his whereabouts.
Uehara not only deliberately let White Zetsu find him, he even greeted him kindly as if they were old friends.
“Where is this place?”
Uehara looked a little lost and asked softly, “Why is Orochimaru coming to this place?”
This White Zetsu thought for a while but decided to speak bluntly, “This is our secret base! Obito is here. Do you want to see him? He almost killed you before. Do you still hate him?”
“At first, I was scared and hated him.”
Uehara smiled and shook his head, and continued, “But Senpai mentioned that we are also people who are working together for the Eye of the Moon Plan. For it to succeed, it doesn’t matter even if he kills me.”
“…”
White Zetsu was stunned for a while and then sighed, “You really are… so good, unlike that guy Obito, his eyes are too small.”
In fact, White Zetsu wanted to say that Uehara was stupid.
That guy Obito wanted to kill Uehara for his selfish desires. Why does it matter if his identity was exposed? As long as the Rinnegan was still there, there would be no problems with the Eye of the Moon Plan.
At this moment, another White Zetsu came up and patted Uehara’s shoulder. It said, “Obito wants to see you, and he seems to want to help you to…”
“Really?”
Uehara had some surprises in his eyes. He looked at the previous White Zetsu and chuckled, “Actually, Obito-senpai, how you described him, and he is the same as when he was codenamed Tobi in Akatsuki before. He is still very enthusiastic!”
“…”
The two White Zetsu didn’t know what to say.
Was Uehara Naraku a fool?
Forget it, as long as he was happy.
Human beings were indeed too stupid.
In the underground base.
When Uehara came in, Obito was picking his weapon on the wall. He hadn’t fought for a long time, so he planned to take this opportunity to test his strength.
Uehara said hello with a smile on his face, “Obito-senpai, it’s been a long time since I saw you. I didn’t expect you to be living here.
“Oh! You are here?”
After Uchiha frowned, he took off the fan on the wall and said loudly, “Are you chasing that fellow Orochimaru? It just so happened that that fellow came to my home, so I’ll go out and kill him for you.”
“Thank you, senpai.”
Uehara hurriedly nodded and barely breathed a sigh of relief, “Orochimaru has reincarnated the First and Second Hokage, so I am really helpless.”
“Rest assured.”
Obito’s mouth hooked, showing a confident smile, “In this world, no one can beat the power of the Sharingan.”
“…”
Uehara looked at the confident Obito and didn’t know what to say.
