Chapter 361 Bonds! Nice to meet you, Ishikawa-kun
"Are you planning to use that fetus to create a new Jinchūriki? It seems that Shukaku, the One-Tailed Beast, is still in Sunagakure."
"But then what about the three-tailed Shukaku? Could there be two Shukaku?"
Under the cover of night, amidst swirling sandstorms, Black and White Zetsu poked their heads out from underground, exchanging bewildered glances as the Fourth Kazekage departed into the distance.
Two Shukaku? How is that possible??
Black Zetsu, in particular, knows the origins of the Tailed Beasts perfectly well, and two Shukakus are simply impossible.
Unless, unless there is a second Ten-Tails in the ninja world, and it is also divided into nine tailed beasts.
But is this really possible?
"Never mind, let's get this message to Lord Madara first. The seal transfer in a month will be the best opportunity if we want to seize Shukaku." After a pause, White Zetsu sighed and sent the message.
Black Zetsu didn't stop it either; it was now somewhat unsure of Madara's thoughts. It could use this opportunity to test Madara's reaction and then adapt accordingly to ensure the Eye of the Moon plan proceeded smoothly.
"Well then, we should head to Konoha! We need to find out the secret of that Three-Tails Shukaku Jinchuriki from the Kara organization." Black Zetsu spoke hoarsely, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, thinking of Ishikawa.
Nothing else matters; the most important thing is this guy.
Having planned for a thousand years, he would never allow his grand plan to resurrect his mother to fail before dawn!
"Of course, Konoha has already begun a secret search." White Zetsu nodded in agreement; Lord Madara was quite eager for information about that guy.
【Want to get my information? You might be thinking too much…】 Almost the instant the Black and White Zetsu disappeared underground, another White Zetsu emerged from the ground not far away, its meaning profound.
"Well then, I should head back now." Bai Jue glanced at the dark moon hanging high in the night sky and spoke softly, a blue-white fluorescent light shooting into the sky and disappearing in an instant!
Meanwhile, the White Zetsu clone, seemingly severely injured, twisted into mud and took root in the earth. Despite the desert's lack of water, it relied on the White Zetsu's nourishment to transform into a sapling, breaking the tranquility.
Hearing the commotion, Karura hurriedly opened the window and looked out. Her tear-streaked eyes trembled, and she subconsciously touched her lower abdomen. "A tree? How did a sapling suddenly appear here?"
"Could this child truly be the hope of Sunagakure...?"
While Karura's tears of joy rekindled her hope, on the other side of Konoha...
As a streak of light flashed across the night sky, Shukaku Ishikawa, who had just returned to Konoha, paused, his eyes instantly regaining their clarity.
The next instant, Ishikawa's left eye turned crimson, and he accelerated, quickly disappearing into the peaceful village under the cover of night.
"Thankfully, there's still time." After rushing all the way, Ishikawa opened the door to Nohara Rin's house with practiced ease and breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the clock with only a few minutes left.
If we're delayed until tonight, we'll have to wait until tomorrow night to get back!
"Ishikawa? You're finally back." Almost at the same time that Ishikawa breathed a sigh of relief, Nohara Rin also came to her senses and exclaimed in surprise.
It seems that Ishikawa did not encounter the danger she had imagined.
"Rin, you've become a Jinchūriki?" Looking up, Ishikawa's red eyes discerned the changes in Rin's chakra and confirmed it with the Four Symbols Sealing Technique.
The yellow flash was a bit too fast!
"Did that Three-Tails bully you? If so, let me go over and teach it a lesson." Knowing that the other person had just become a Jinchūriki and was psychologically vulnerable, Ishikawa immediately stepped forward and smiled reassuringly.
“Ishikawa, the three tails are not its name, its name is: Isobu.”
Nohara Rin shook her head, touched, and looking at Ishikawa's concerned face, a warm feeling inexplicably rose in her heart...
This guy seems to be quite caring!
"Isobu? It seems something I don't know about has happened..." Ishikawa's eyes flashed with surprise as he chuckled, his gaze inadvertently drifting towards his own doorway.
Is it because of the doorknob? Mitsurugi, you really are a wise man who knows when to yield!
"Of course, but this is a secret between me and Isogai, so I can't tell you." Nohara Rin blinked her big eyes and smiled playfully, then her face turned serious and her gaze became solemn. "So, I can now stand on the same side as you and face the future!"
"Please take care of me from now on, Ishikawa-kun."
Upon meeting those sincere eyes, Ishikawa was taken aback for a moment, then revealed a bright smile as gentle as a spring breeze, "Of course, we are unique to each other."
"A unique existence..." Nohara Rin murmured unconsciously, a ripple appearing on her calm heart.
Yes! They are unique to each other, living together across time and space...
This bond that transcends time and space is a relationship that no one can sever.
"Well, it's about time, so I'll get straight to the point." Seeing that Nohara Rin looked a little dazed and her face was slightly flushed, Ishikawa quickly interrupted, noticing that there were only two or three minutes left.
"Madara Uchiha has already sent more White Zetsu to the village to gather information about me, so you don't need to worry about your safety for the time being."
"Unless they find information about me, Madara Uchiha shouldn't make a move anytime soon. Perfect timing, you can use this time to join the Anbu and hide your identity, and also get familiar with and master the power of the Three-Tails."
"Also, could you come over here and show up later if you have time? Otherwise, I won't know how to explain it to the teacher..."
"Explain?" Nohara Rin frowned, about to say something more, when she saw Ishikawa's figure and the house structure rapidly blur and disappear!
"Is it over?" Nohara Rin paused, looking at the room that had returned to normal, then remembered the White Zetsu surveillance that Ishikawa had mentioned, and her pretty face turned frosty.
Madara Uchiha's blatant surveillance and intelligence gathering of Konoha is simply outrageous!!
Although Ishikawa is not in Konoha, that doesn't mean Konoha doesn't have other secrets.
The thought that the village's secrets would be secretly spied on by Uchiha Madara made Nohara Rin grit her teeth and turn to leave without hesitation.
This matter cannot be reported to avoid causing panic, but as long as the Hyuga clan's Byakugan accidentally sees the White Zetsu clone, there will be no problem!
The elimination of spies is of utmost urgency.
At the same time, "Solve..."
Back in his own world, Ishikawa formed a hand seal, and the shadow clone he had left behind disappeared, feeding back his memories from the past day.
"Sasuke has agreed to join the Anbu! He completed the onboarding process tonight and has become a member of the Anbu's Second Division."
After receiving all the memories, Ishikawa murmured to himself, not actually surprised by the result.
Sasuke, who was seeking revenge, was already tired of those childish team missions, so how could he possibly refuse his invitation?
“Then, there’s no need to consider who should use these eyes! No one is more suitable than him.” Reaching out of his ninja tool pouch, Ishikawa took out a bottle of nutrient solution and looked at the pair of scarlet, eerie three-tomoe Sharingan eyes. He bit his finger and formed a hand seal in the pupil.
