Chapter 96

"That Land of Whirlpools sent someone to take Uzumaki Nagato back to the Land of Whirlpools!"

Uchiha Madara's eyes condensed.

Uzumaki Nagato had some important tasks in his plan and couldn't be careless!

But now he had appeared in connection with the Land of Whirlpools that he had observed through the Third Mizukage before?

Why did they suddenly take Nagato back?

Did they discover something?

"Have you found out the reason for taking Nagato back?"

Zetsu, while doing funny movements, said, "Ah, this Land of Whirlpools seems to be recalling the Uzumaki clan that was scattered outside after the country was destroyed!"

Uchiha Madara was lost in thought. It seemed that this newborn Land of Whirlpools was inseparable from the Uzumaki clan.

Otherwise, they wouldn't care so much about the Uzumaki clan's bloodline.

That's fine too. With this information, at least he didn't have to worry about Nagato having any life danger.

It's just that it would be a bit difficult to find a way for Nagato to resurrect him later.

But his current body couldn't do anything.

Being able to rely on the Gedo Statue to maintain basic body functions was already quite good.

Unfortunately, no one had appeared yet who could execute his plan.

Since he was awake, Uchiha Madara prepared to learn more about the current situation in the ninja world.

When he heard from Zetsu about the Hollows that appeared in the Land of Grass, his brows couldn't help but frown.

"Hollows? Monsters with strange appearances?"

Tsk, when did such strange things appear in the ninja world?

However...

He looked at Zetsu and suddenly didn't feel it was very strange anymore.

After all, even creatures like Zetsu existed, so what else was impossible?

The people of the Land of Whirlpools are called Soul Reapers?

Another unfamiliar term.

However, during the Warring States period, he had indeed heard of the matter of the Uzumaki clan worshiping Soul Reaper masks in their ancestral hall.

It seemed that these Soul Reapers should be related to the masks worshiped by the Uzumaki clan.

Judging from the tone of the Hollow's leader, Hollows and Soul Reapers seemed to be at odds?

Uchiha Madara began to feel drowsy again.

He had just taken a nap, so why did the ninja world feel like it had changed so much?

Forget it, as long as it didn't affect his plan, he wouldn't care about these things.

After dismissing Zetsu, Uchiha Madara fell into a deep sleep again.

………………

Land of Lightning, Cloud Hidden Village.

A bang came from the Raikage's office, followed by the sound of a table collapsing.

The Third Raikage said angrily, "Yeruibi, was killed?"

The secretary lowered his head, "Yes!"

"Have you found out who did it?"

The secretary shook his head and added, "Although I don't know the specific murderer, after Yeruibi was found, the nearby Grass Hidden Village was also destroyed."

"And from the mouths of the survivors, I learned that the ones who destroyed the Grass Hidden Village seemed to be a group of monsters called Hollows!"

The Third Raikage's eyes condensed, "Hollows? Monsters?"

When did such creatures hide in the ninja world?

Could it be that these Hollows killed Yeruibi?

"Forget it, never mind. Anyway, this matter must have something to do with the Land of Whirlpools!"

The Third Raikage was certain.

Before, when the Grass Hidden Village sent them a message, besides explaining that they wanted to use Uzumaki Haruna to establish diplomatic relations with the Land of Lightning, they also clearly informed them that Uzumaki Haruna had been targeted by the Land of Whirlpools.

Now that the Grass Hidden Village was destroyed and Uzumaki Haruna was missing, no matter how you looked at it, it had something to do with the Land of Whirlpools.

"In other words, maybe that Uzumaki Haruna has already been taken back by the Land of Whirlpools?"

The Third Raikage paced in the office.

Yeruibi's matter was put aside for now; the Jinchuriki matter was the most important.

But the best experimental subjects were taken away by the Land of Whirlpools, and the Jinchuriki plan was about to be aborted.

No! Absolutely not!

The Third Raikage's face sank as he said, "Issue a mission, let our people sneak into the Land of Whirlpools and see if they can find a chance to kidnap two Uzumaki clan members back!"

"Yes!"

Uzumaki Chihiro, who was far away in the Land of Whirlpools, would never have thought that the move the Cloud Hidden Village used against Konoha in the original work would be used against the Land of Whirlpools this time!

However, the Land of Whirlpools was not the silent Konoha...

A few days later.

Intelligence on the Rain Country battlefield was also sent to Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"The Soul Reapers of the Land of Whirlpools have moved again?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was speechless. How come the Land of Whirlpools was everywhere?

But after seeing that the purpose of the Land of Whirlpools' Soul Reapers going to the Land of Rain was to take back a member of the Uzumaki clan, he suddenly realized.

However...

You take people back, so why did you fight with Hanzo of the Yamabuki?

The reason was actually that when Hanzo of the Yamabuki was fighting his three disciples, a kunai with an explosive tag from Hanzo of the Yamabuki flew near the Uzumaki clan member and caused harm?

This...

What a domineering Land of Whirlpools!

What shocked him even more was that Hanzo, who had hung his three disciples up and beaten them, had actually been beaten to the point of being unconscious by the Captain of the Land of Whirlpools!?

"Captain of the 6th Division, actually another new captain..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's face was heavy, and he couldn't help but smoke a pipe.

Staring at the intelligence in his hand, he couldn't help but think: "Could it be that the captains of the 13th Division of the Land of Whirlpools really all have Kage-level or even higher strength??"

A country, and originally a small country, could really give birth to so many geniuses?

Even Konoha, with its fertile land and many talents, had never had a period where thirteen Kages appeared at the same time!

Temporarily suppress the shock in his heart.

Although the change in the Land of Whirlpools made him very uneasy, Konoha's attention still had to be placed on the Land of Rain.

Speaking of which, the captain of the 6th Division of the Land of Whirlpools indirectly helped Konoha.

Hanzo of the Yamabuki's life or death was unknown, so Konoha had one less constraint in the Land of Rain.

The Land of Earth also saw that the situation was not good and exited the war early, not wanting to continue wasting manpower and materials, leaving the battlefield to Konoha and the Land of Wind.

With two fewer forces involved, Konoha could also open its arms and have a big fight with the Land of Wind.

Resolve the war with the Land of Wind as soon as possible, and then start discussing the positioning of the Land of Whirlpools for Konoha.

"Sakumo is also much better. Since the war with the Land of Rain is over, it's time for Sakumo to head to the Land of Wind battlefield..."
