Chapter 613: Rescuing Kumogakure
Mabui, struck hard by Madara, was in agonizing pain. The female secretary gritted her teeth and forced herself to activate the Heavenly Transfer Technique. She not only teleported a White Zetsu's corpse but also wrote a brief report on a scroll—about the attack, enemy numbers, and main forces—and sent it to Konoha.
The Konoha Sensory Unit detected a strange object suddenly appearing within their range. They immediately sent people to check. Five minutes later, the Zetsu corpse was in Konoha Hospital being studied by Shizune, and Minato convened a meeting of key personnel.
Before anyone could speak, Ino volunteered. "Madara and the Gedo Statue are in Kumo? I'll go provide support."
Whatever Madara's plan or conspiracy, focusing on fighting him couldn't be wrong.
He had already fused more than half of Indra and Asura's chakra. Facing the Rinnegan-wielding Madara, he felt confident. Most importantly, this battle was in Kumogakure. He could use his Wood Golem or Susanoo freely. It was predictable that Kumo's losses would be huge, which fit the basic requirements for the post-war "Five Village Unification."
Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado also thought of this. The two elders nodded slightly. Madara Uchiha, what a guy. It would be even better if you went and did this to Iwagakure too.
Minato Namikaze, the Hokage, definitely had to stay and guard the village. Ino, as the village's top asset, going to support was perfectly reasonable.
Minato asked, "Are you using the Flying Thunder God? It's quite far."
"No need. My ninjutsu has had a breakthrough recently." Ino no longer hid his Ketsuryū Mōra. His eyes glowed faintly, locked onto Kumo, and an ancient-looking wooden bridge appeared from thin air.
Minato had seen this technique of his in Rouran twenty years ago, but he had never asked. Now, he saw it again.
"A more advanced space-time ninjutsu?"
"Yes."
"Can you take more people?"
Ino thought. "...Haven't tried that... I think so. Didn't I take... that guy... last time?"
Minato knew he meant Obito and nodded.
Kumo calls for help, and Konoha sends one person? Was that appropriate? Actually, it was. They were so far apart; timely support was all one could ask for.
Follow-up troops would definitely go, but that took time.
"Be careful. If it's impossible, retreat."
"Got it."
Ino first sent a message to the Yamanaka clan ninja, telling his mother and Hinata to take shelter in the "Path to the Underworld." Going to the Path to the Underworld to give birth was a no-go, but hiding from war was fine. Follow me there if you dare!
Madara and the Ten-Tails were both out. The great war had, without a doubt, begun. Ino glanced at the calendar. October 7th. Three days until Naruto's birthday on October 10th.
Ino quickly stepped onto the "Moon-Crossing Bridge." He strode a dozen steps to the other end and vanished in a flash of white light.
Konoha couldn't just send Ino alone. Minato quickly gave orders for Asuma to take 1,000 ninja and 200 medical-nin and depart immediately. They were to force-march at top speed to Kumo to support their ally.
Depending on the situation, second and third waves would be sent.
"Elders, contact Iwa and Kiri immediately. I have a feeling Madara is targeting the entire ninja world this time."
"Yes."
While Madara waged a war of annihilation in Kumo, Zetsu was still infiltrating the five villages, especially Konoha.
"Wow! Is this Konoha? It's such a big village!" Also one of the 100,000 White Zetsu, but Tobi was completely different from the rest.
The White Zetsu all had identical male faces. Tobi didn't. This guy had no facial features; his body looked like a spiral roll, white muscles twisted together. He could "wrap" someone like clothes, drastically enhancing their techniques and ninjutsu.
In the White Zetsu army, he was a true eccentric.
"Shut up, you idiot!" a White Zetsu disguised as a Konoha ninja cursed quietly. "Are you stupid? Shouting so loud? Don't you know we're infiltrating?"
Tobi had no eyes, but he could "see" his surroundings. Scolded by his comrade, he wasn't angry, just scratched his head. "Actually, I wanted to ask... where's the bathroom?"
"Shut up!" "You're not allowed to talk!" "Be quiet!"
Several Zetsu glared at him. Tobi quickly covered his mouth, feigning obedience.
Never mind Madara and Obito, even Zetsu didn't know why this guy emerged from the White Zetsu. 99,999 White Zetsu looked the same. This one was different. It was truly bizarre.
It could only be seen as a mutation. How it happened? No idea.
They brought Tobi into Konoha to use his formidable power. The standard White Zetsu weren't bad, but their combat ability was average. Tobi's personal combat ability and his power to enhance others were extremely valuable.
The Zetsu walked into Konoha. Disguised as ninja, they didn't trigger the sensor alarms.
Tobi kept his mouth shut for less than two minutes, then whispered, "Can I talk now? I really gotta go... Waaah! I'm gonna crap my pants!"
The other Zetsu: "..."
Do you even have that organ? Crap your pants...
The Zetsu had no patience for this overgrown child. They waved him off. "Scram. Go do whatever."
The goal was to create chaos anyway, allowing more Zetsu to infiltrate as Konoha ninja. They didn't care if Tobi lived or died.
If he found someone strong to attach to and wreak havoc, great. If he found a weakling and just threw some explosive tags and used a few jutsu, fine too!
Tobi hitched up his pants, ran off, and quickly vanished from the other Zetsu's sight.
He didn't seem like a first-timer in Konoha at all. Despite looking like a spiral roll, a bizarre face like that running around the village should have been spotted in seconds. Yet he not only cleverly avoided all the villagers but also found a bathroom in the northwest part of the village.
Tobi burst into the bathroom and started pulling down his pants. Suddenly, he yelled, "Aiya! My ring fell! This is my credential for joining Akatsuki! Oh, it stinks! Should I get it? ... It stinks so much!"
There was someone in the next stall.
Because of Ino's rise to fame, this Wood Release ninja never formed a bond with Team 7. The sole survivor of Orochimaru and Danzo's experiments, captain of Anbu Team 5, Yamato, couldn't help but look over.
Akatsuki? I'm just in the bathroom, reading a paper, slacking off... and Akatsuki is coming to Konoha to use the toilet?
