Konoha: Start with the card-drawing mobile game.

In Konoha's headquarters to deal with the Iwagakure battlefield.

Facing the sand table, Nara Shikaku kept analyzing the current situation, but the conclusions he reached made him break out in a cold sweat.

'If you continue like this, you will lose! '

Jiraiya, wearing a ninja uniform, opened the door to the command room. From the anxious face of Nara Shikaku, Jiraiya roughly saw the direction of the war.

"Shikaku, take a rest."

As the strategist of Konoha, Nara Shikaku should have enough control over the battle situation, but the current situation has exceeded his expectations.

Nara Shikaku, who was sitting in front of the sand table and constantly deducing, sighed and expressed his opinion to Jiraiya: "If we also use the Jinchuuriki, we may still have a chance of winning."

"The Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki hasn't reached the point where he can freely use the tailed beast's chakra, so he can't use it at the moment!"

Although Jiraiya didn't quite understand the extent of Uzumaki Kushina's use of the Nine-Tails chakra, he definitely didn't reach the point where he could fight on the front line.

If Kushina, who has been eroded by the Kyuubi chakra, falls into a state of rage, that kind of rage that does not distinguish between friend and foe will not only fail to help the situation, but will add more trouble.

"Yeah."

Nara Shikaku covered his eyes with his hands, his body temperature gradually rising while thinking quickly.

"A group of Iwagakure ninjas who sneaked in from nowhere entered the border and even caused the attrition of jounin."

"There is an elite Iwagakure ANBU among them. Even Jiraiya-sama, you will be dragged for a while if you meet him alone."

Jiraiya touched his chin and kept thinking about the relevant situation. After speaking, he asked: "Has it been solved? Is it Ding Zao or Zhi Wei?"

Judging from the distance and ninja strength, the only ninjas who can reach the border of the Land of Fire in time to deal with the Iwagakure Anbu are Akimichi Choza and Aburame Shiwei.

"He was killed by an Uchiha genin."

Nara Shikaku stood up, walked to the miniature sand table, and started playing with it.

"Not even the Jonin stationed in the camp could survive from the hands of the Iwagakure Anbu, but the genin named Uchiha Toru not only killed the invading Iwagakure Anbu, but even protected a companion who had lost the ability to fight. .”

"Shikaku, what do you mean?"

Jiraiya has roughly concluded from Nara Shikaku's mouth that the legendary power can completely help the Uchiha genin to complete the counterattack.

"As you think, let's block the news first and wait until he recovers in the temporary hospital before making any inferences."

"If I were an Uchiha who activated the Mangekyō Sharingan, I would also hide it."

Nara Shikaku pointed with his finger to the direction of the 'Land of Rain' on the sand table, and expressed his inference about Uchiha Toru's hidden kaleidoscope.

"The blood inheritance fusion experiment conducted by Elder Danzo has spread within Uchiha, and it is expected that the Mangekyo Sharingan will be hidden."

Jiraiya walked to the sand table and followed Nara Shikaku's fingers to the Rain Country battlefield where Danzo Shimura was.

Sandwiched between the three countries of Iwagakure, Konoha, and Sunagakure, even with Sansho Hanzo in charge, this strategically key geographical location cannot be changed.

"Didn't Danzo Shimura possess the Wood Release and a Mangekyō Sharingan? Why didn't he come forward to deal with those tailed beasts?"

"I don't know. Elder Danzo's whereabouts are becoming more and more mysterious. We can't figure out his thoughts at all."

Nara Shikaku shook his head. As Konoha's 'think tank', he could no longer see through this powerful and mysterious elder.

"In addition to Elder Danzo, there is another way to change the situation of the battle!"

Pointing to the Kirigakure battlefield where Orochimaru was, Nara Shikaku stared at the symbol with the Uchiha clan emblem.

"Mangekyo Sharingan!"

"Using the Mangekyo Sharingan to restrain the tailed beasts can completely reverse the current situation."

The fatigue in his eyes was slowly covered by another belief. Nara Shikaku looked at the Iwagakure battlefield where he was in the sand table.

"If the Uchiha ninja named Uchiha Toru really activates the Mangekyo Sharingan, everything will turn around!"

"I see."

Jiraiya also looked at the temporary hospital on the Iwakaku battlefield in the sand table, where something called hope was being carried.

"When the battle line becomes more stable, I will meet him in person."

In the temporary hospital on the Iwagakure battlefield.

Uchiha Toru stood in the temporary tent, silently waiting for Black Zetsu's arrival.

Lying on the hospital bed in front of him was Kato Shizune, who was in a coma.

"It's just that his consciousness fell into a coma. It's nothing serious for the time being."

Taking the hand with green light away from Shizune's chest, the female medical ninja spoke to Uchiha Cheru.

After saying that, the medical ninja hurriedly walked out of the tent because there were too many things she needed to do right now.

'I should have restrained myself a little bit, why did it become like this? '

Although his kick on Shizune's chest was very powerful, it definitely wouldn't have knocked him unconscious for such a long time, right?

Uchiha Toru was still waiting for Shizune who regained consciousness and Tsunade behind her to give him a 'kaleidoscope certificate' and an 'alibi'. It was really beyond his expectation to remain unconscious like this.

At this time, a white humanoid monster slowly emerged from the ground, with only half of its head exposed.

Bai Zetsu shook his head and motioned for Uchiha Toru to meet outside the hospital.

Uchiha Toru nodded, held the ninjutsu scroll containing the 'Fire Ball Fan' and 'Uchiha Clothing' tightly close to his body, and hurried out of the hospital.

Seeing that everything was going as expected, Bai Jue, who was in the Mayfly Technique, immediately integrated with the surrounding environment.

Not far outside Konoha Hospital.

With a smile on his face, Black Zetsu was constantly sorting out the information collected by White Zetsu.

Behind him, two special white figures held back their auras, as if they were waiting for something.

"You're here, Onoki's side is about to start taking action!"

Seeing Toru Uchiha coming in a hurry with the scroll in hand, Black Zetsu changed his expression to serious and called in a low voice.

"What should I do while I'm gone?"

Seemingly determined to intercept Ohnoki and protect his companions, Toru Uchiha did not ask for too much information.

"He will take your place, you just need to think about how to defeat Onoki!"

He pushed out the inferior White Zetsu behind him. Due to the previous absorption of Uchiha Toru's chakra, the current inferior White Zetsu was completely carved out of the same mold as Uchiha Toru himself.

The body shape, appearance, and even the chakra aura are exactly the same!

"Well, you can tell me what you want."

Black Zetsu just glanced at the Uzumaki-faced White Zetsu beside him, and A Fei instantly stopped asking for help.

"Okay, put it on!"

"wear?"

Following Black Zetsu's order, the whirlpool-faced White Zetsu unfolded the spiral structure of his whole body and presented it in front of Uchiha Cheru in a wonderful way.
