Chapter 160 Colluding with Each Other
After many days, Uchiha An finally returned to the Land of Rain.
"I don't want to go in!"
Shukaku plopped down on the border of the Land of Rain and refused to budge.
"I hate rain the most! It's all wet there, I don't want to go!"
"Oh dear, I forgot about this period!" An scratched his head helplessly, then remembered that Shukaku's true form is sand, and it loves dry and hot conditions the most, and hates the environment of the Land of Rain the most!
"Alright then, you can wander around here. I'll come find you again if I need anything."
"Although there are wars all over the ninja world right now, no one will come looking for trouble for you, but if you encounter any danger, remember to call my name."
"If that doesn't work, throw a Tailed Beast Ball towards the Land of Rain. I'll know you're calling for help and I'll come to your rescue."
"Stop nagging! Who needs your help? I'm going back to the desert. If you need anything, come find me there."
Shukaku raised its head, let out a cry, and then disappeared in a flash.
It has been sealed away for many years, and now that it finally has the chance to be free, of course it wants to have some fun.
After seeing Shukaku off, An swaggered back to Amegakure to see Nagato.
"Boss, we've captured Shukaku. It's being kept free-range outside. Just let us know whenever you want to catch it and eat it."
"Okay, I understand." Nagato nodded slightly without saying anything.
He knew about what An had done in the Land of Wind, and that he had also made a trip to the Land of Fire, but he didn't care.
He doesn't care about the process, he only cares about the result.
Whether An brings back a tailed beast or a Jinchuriki, it's fine as long as it can be used when needed.
"Where's Orochimaru? Why didn't he come back with you? Sealing the tailed beasts requires his participation."
"Oh, it seems Lord Orochimaru is going to Konoha. He should be back soon."
"Alright, since Obito and Zetsu haven't captured the Three-Tails yet, and we don't have enough manpower to use the Illusionary Dragon Nine Seals, let's just wait."
"They're not back yet!" An nodded thoughtfully.
Obito had already controlled Yagura with genjutsu, but now that his Mangekyou Sharingan has been taken away by An, and he has suffered serious physical and mental injuries, he will definitely find a place to heal his injuries before going to do his business.
Moreover, the issue he's discussing most with Zetsu right now is definitely not Yagura's problem, but Rin's problem.
He definitely wants Jue to help save Lin, but Jue might not be willing to help him wholeheartedly.
Obito, who is desperate about the world, is the only tool that serves Zetsu's interests. What if he saves Rin and suddenly becomes passionate about the ninja world again?
After An understood, he took his leave and went to a secluded place. He looked around and called out loudly.
"Jue, I knew you were here. Come out and let's talk."
Before he finished speaking, a white thorn head emerged from the ground not far away.
"An, is there something you need?"
"How's Obito doing now? What's he doing?" An asked with a grin.
"Hmph, An, you've gone too far!" White Zetsu complained angrily, "Obito is seriously injured right now. Even with a spore body, it's not easy to heal his injuries."
"Of course, the most serious trauma is the psychological one."
"His mental state is very unstable right now. His condition fluctuates greatly. He sometimes bursts into tears for no reason, and other times he suddenly throws his head back and laughs wildly, drooling from time to time. He's like someone with dementia!"
"He can't continue the mission in this state."
"Getting Alzheimer's? Doesn't that mean you're getting smarter?" An laughed strangely.
Before Jue could get angry, An revealed his thoughts.
"Zetsu, what do you think about us giving Obito and Rin a 'Caged Bird' curse mark on their foreheads?"
"With this cursed seal, you no longer need to worry about Obito going out of control. You can order him around however you want from now on."
"If he dares to disobey, then—well, then punish Lin with the curse mark."
"?" Jue paused for a moment, then immediately became interested. "This method—is excellent!"
"Obito is always willful and reckless, which gives me a lot of headaches. If I had the cursed seal, it would definitely make things much easier."
"That's good!" An clapped his hands and told Zetsu about Hyuga Neji. "If you don't want others to use this cursed seal to control Obito, you'd better kill all the members of the Hyuga main family."
"I encouraged Hyuga Neji on the branch family side, but I'm not sure if he can succeed. So if possible, please send some White Zetsu over to help the Hyuga branch family."
"Okay, that's easy, I'll arrange it."
Bai Jue immediately agreed, his body sinking down and disappearing from the spot.
An nodded with satisfaction and headed straight towards Xinyou and her daughter.
"Oh, Uncle An is back!"
Before they even got close to the courtyard, a cheer was heard, and a red figure blew out of the courtyard like the wind, throwing herself into An's arms and hugging him tightly.
"Haha—Karin has awakened her 'Kagura Mind's Eye'?"
An picked up Karin and lifted her high to take a closer look. He saw that Karin was no longer the frail and thin girl she used to be. She was now full of youthful energy and had begun to develop into a beautiful young woman.
"Mmm." Karin's eyes sparkled with excitement, and she nodded vigorously. "I'm so amazing now, I can observe so many things from far away."
"Okay, Karin is amazing!" An gave a thumbs up, offering plenty of emotional support, which made Karin's little face beam with joy.
Xinyou and Bai also came out of the courtyard and stood in front of the gate, smiling and bowing slightly.
"Welcome back, Chieftain."
"Lord An, welcome back."
An glanced at the two of them and saw that Xinyou had become more voluptuous and was becoming a beautiful young woman, and Bai had also grown a bit taller. He immediately smiled and nodded.
"Great, everyone's in good spirits."
"Where is Hiruko? Where has he gone? Why doesn't he come out to greet me, the clan chief?"
"Oh, Lord Hiruko heard that Uzumaki clansmen have appeared near Raiin Village, so he went to take a look."
"Oh, so he's found another fusion target!" An nodded, her gaze settling on Xin You's face, and asked in a deep voice, "He chose the Uzumaki clan to fuse with. What are your thoughts on this?"
Xin You smiled gently and said calmly, "What does the Uzumaki clan's affairs have to do with me, Uchiha Xin You?"
