Chapter 2: Black Zetsu Plan
'Right, Kakashi, Obito didn't die. He was saved by Uchiha Madara!'
Uchiha Ryo, the only one who knew the truth, couldn't help but think so in his heart after hearing Kakashi's words.
Of course, he could only think about it but not say it out loud.
He continued to move the stones outward like everyone else, his face still filled with a sense of grief.
Uchiha Ryo didn't want anyone to notice anything unusual about him for the time being.
" Kannabi Bridge actually rewarded me with the Rinnegan through the sign-in system. Is this place so special?"
But Ryo's mind couldn't calm down at all; it was filled with thoughts about the sign-in system.
In the anime, the battle at the Kannabi Bridge held significant importance because it marked the beginning of Uchiha Obito's corruption and the start of Uchiha Madara's Eye of the Moon Plan.
However, in the Naruto world, the Kannabi Bridge was merely a battlefield, with nothing particularly special about it.
"Could it be that... the special thing about the Kannabi Bridge is not just the battle, but because Uchiha Madara is hidden underground?"
Suddenly, a flash of realization crossed Uchiha Ryo's mind, making him realize something.
Indeed, beneath the Kannabi Bridge, there was a secret base!
Who knew how long Madara had been lurking in that base?
"Well, I don't need to think about it. Right now, I should be the only perfect user of the Rinnegan in the entire Naruto world, right?"
Uchiha Ryo thought excitedly in his mind.
Although he wasn't the only one with the Rinnegan at the moment, Nagato of the Uzumaki clan had possessed it for years.
But the crucial difference was that Nagato wasn't an Uchiha, so he couldn't fully utilize its power!
On the other hand, Uchiha Ryo had a genuine and complete Rinnegan that was like the original eye, allowing him to control it perfectly.
He wouldn't suffer any drawbacks and could freely activate and deactivate the Rinnegan at will.
It should be noted that even though Uchiha Ryo now had the Rinnegan, the pupils in his eyes still appeared normal.
However, whenever he needed to use the Rinnegan, he could effortlessly switch to its state with a single thought. It was incredibly convenient.
While thinking about these things, he continued to move the stones. Unconsciously, the group had already cleared all the rocks.
But to everyone's surprise, there was nothing below, and there was no sign of Uchiha Obito's body at all.
"How could this be? Obito should have been buried here!" Kakashi furrowed his brows, utterly perplexed.
"Kakashi, are you sure you didn't remember it wrong?" Uchiha Shisui asked after a moment of contemplation.
"No, I'm sure this is the place!" Kakashi replied firmly.
"Kakashi, maybe someone has saved Obito! That would be great if he's still alive!" Rin exclaimed with hope in her eyes.
"Yes! That must be it! Someone rescued Obito!" Kakashi's eyes brightened as he nodded.
Uchiha Shisui couldn't help but sigh softly. He wanted to voice his dissent, but at a time like this, he didn't have the heart to crush their hopes. So, he kept quiet.
As for why Uchiha Obito's body was missing, it was indeed strange, but the situation in the war was critical, and it wasn't the time to dwell on such matters.
Since they didn't find Obito's body, Uchiha Shisui, and the others naturally didn't stay there any longer and quickly returned to Konoha.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Everyone activated their Body Flicker Technique and disappeared in no time.
Just as Uchiha Shisui and the others left, a liquid-like black figure emerged from a nearby tree. It was none other than the first filial son of the Shinobi World, Black Zetsu!
"The people from Konoha have left. They probably won't come back to check this place again."
"Since Uchiha Madara is intending to carry out the Eye of the Moon Plan with Uchiha Obito, then my plan should also start!"
"The Konohagakure has been at war with Iwagakure, there's an interesting show to watch, but... it's not my concern for now."
Muttering to himself, Black Zetsu once again submerged into the tree trunk and disappeared.
On the tree where Black Zetsu disappeared, an Iwagakure shinobi jumped out and said, "Body Flicker, Uchiha Shisui! And Kakashi! This is a great chance to eliminate Shisui. I must inform the Lord Han immediately!"
During the war period, Konohagakure and Iwagakure were the main opponents, and both sides suffered great losses during the fierce battles.
In this process, two individuals rose to fame in the Shinobi World.
One was the Yellow Flash, Minato Namikaze, and the other was the Body Flicker, Shisui Uchiha.
As for the Sannin, their battlefield was during the Second War, not the Third War.
At this stage, Jiraiya traveled outside the village, searching for the Child of Prophecy, Tsunade left Konoha and her whereabouts were unknown, and the only one left of the Sannin, Orochimaru, rarely appeared on the battlefield for some unknown reason.
This made the Third War almost a showcase between Minato Namikaze and Uchiha Shisui.
So, Iwagakure was eager to get rid of these two individuals and wouldn't miss any opportunity to do so.
...
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
In the dense forest of the mountains, Uchiha Shisui took the lead, followed by Kakashi and the Konoha guard team, quickly making their way back to Konoha.
Suddenly, Shisui's expression slightly changed.
"Shisui, did you notice something?" Kakashi asked in a low voice.
"There are enemies approaching! Everyone, prepare for battle!" Uchiha Shisui said with a serious expression to the others.
During the war, such situations were commonplace. Everyone remained calm and tightened their grip on their ninja tools, alert and ready for battle.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
At that moment, several figures flickered past them, a group of Iwagakure shinobi appearing on the trees in front of them.
Among them, a person in a deep red hat, wearing deep red armor, and a deep red mask on his face took the lead.
His whole body was crimson, catching everyone's attention.
With a tower-like stature, he simply stood there, exuding a faint pressure.
"Han the Jinchūriki of the Five-Tails, Iwagakure really wants to eliminate me."
Uchiha Shisui's brow furrowed slightly.
