Uchiha Itachi said in a low voice: "Indeed, last time you fought Deidara, I tried to copy your ability with the Sharingan but failed. Even if you don't have chakra, I can't use your Amaterasu. And the black coffin just now is also a technique that cannot be copied."
"Therefore, investigating me is just a waste of effort." Sasuke patted his shoulder and said, "Tell Pain not to waste time and energy on me. I will not do anything that is detrimental to the organization because my interests are tied to the interests of the organization. Betrayal will not benefit me in any way."
"So, what is your purpose?" Uchiha Itachi asked.
Sasuke said calmly: "The only purpose is to kill people and make yourself more evil and more powerful."
"Murder?" Uchiha Itachi narrowed his eyes and said, "No one would kill without a purpose. What is your reason for killing? Why do you want to kill?"
"You have too many questions." Sasuke suddenly said coldly: "After chatting with you for a few more sentences, you won't put me and you in the same dimension, right? Uchiha Itachi, can your Sharingan see through me?"
Uchiha Itachi was stunned.
Sasuke turned and left: "Enough, take the Jinchūriki and return to Yugakure."
Two days later.
In the Hidden Cloud Village, in the office of the Raikage.
The Fourth Raikage was standing outside the French window overlooking the scenery, holding a dumbbell in his hand to practice arm strength. Beside him were his two assistants, named Darui and Samui.
Darui was a dark-skinned ninja who was good at Storm Release and the future Fifth Raikage.
As for Samui, she was a blonde girl with an exaggerated figure, even more majestic than Tsunade, and full of flesh.
The Fourth Raikage, who was lifting weights, suddenly asked, "Hey, Samui, it's been more than a month since Yuboku left the village, right? The order given to her was to return to the village yesterday; why hasn't she come back after more than a day?"
"I have sent the Anbu people to meet them, but there is still no news. The four followers who left with Yuboku have also lost contact. I am investigating," Samui replied.
"Lost contact?" The Raikage said unhappily, "It's no small matter if a Jinchūriki loses contact outside the village! Investigate thoroughly! Even if he's dead, bring his body back to me!"
"Yes, I will do it immediately." Samui nodded and prepared to leave.
Just as she opened the door of the office, an Anbu rushed in in a hurry, knelt in front of the Raikage, and said anxiously, "Report, report to the Raikage! The Anbu heard the news that Master Yuboku was captured by unknown forces!"
"What!" Upon hearing this, the Raikage widened his eyes and said, "What's going on! Explain it to me clearly!"
The Anbu ninja trembled and said, "The Anbu found the bodies of four followers of Lord Yuboku in a forest sixty kilometers away. There were traces of fighting at the scene. The reconnaissance team restored the battle scene. It is speculated that an enemy attacked Lord Yuboku, killed the four followers, and forcibly abducted Lord Yuboku!"
Bang!
As soon as he finished speaking, the Raikage slapped the table in anger. The sturdy wooden table made of pure wood was smashed to pieces by his slap.
"How dare you attack my people!" The Raikage was furious and asked, "Who did it? Konoha? Iwagakure? Kirigakure? Or Sunagakure?"
"No, not sure." The Anbu ninja said nervously, "There are no traces of enemy ninjutsu left at the scene. The people in the detection team can't guess who the attacker is, but the Anbu has brought back the bodies of four followers and are reading the remaining memories in their brains. There should be results soon."
Bang!
As soon as the words fell, the Raikage broke through the wall and said in a muffled voice, "Darui, Samui, follow me to the signal team, I want to know the results first!"
"Let's go." Samui sighed habitually and walked out of the main gate with Darui.
In the basement of Kumogakure.
This is a huge underground organization. The people working here are all Kumogakure Anbu ninjas wearing masks.
At this time, in the deepest room of the organization, there are four headless bodies on the ground. They are the four followers of Yuboku who were beheaded by Sasuke with one sword.
The heads of the four people are placed on a plate. Several Anbu ninjas are using ninjutsu to read the remaining memories in these four heads.
Raikage and others are waiting for the results.
"Hey, what's going on? It's been two hours, and you haven't finished reading yet?" The Raikage urged impatiently.
The Anbu ninja apologized, "I'm sorry, we stole the ninjutsu of reading memory from the Yamanaka clan of Konoha. This technology is not very mature yet, so it will take a long time. Please be patient, Raikage, we are almost successful."
"The Yamanaka Clan of Konoha." The Raikage snorted unhappily, "The Hidden Cloud Clan actually had to steal this technology from Konoha. It would be so embarrassing if this were to be spread out to others."
"There is no other way. This technology is very useful for intelligence gathering and cannot be used." Samui sighed and said, "Besides, Lord Raikage, this technology was stolen by you when you went to Konoha. Have you forgotten?"
The Raikage was stunned and said, "Ah? I stole it? When?"
"It seems that it was about ten years ago when you kidnapped the eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan of Konoha under the pretext of negotiating a peace treaty with Konoha in order to obtain their Byakugan," Samui recalled, "When you failed to obtain the Byakugan, you sent your men to sneak into the Yamanaka clan's base and steal this secret technology without Konoha knowing anything about it."
The Raikage said awkwardly, "Is there such a thing? I didn't even think of it."
"Of course, your main target back then was the Byakugan, but later Sarutobi Hiruzen gave you a scapegoat named Hyuga Hizashi. Hyuga Hizashi's Byakugan was completely unusable, and it was automatically destroyed after the eye was dug out. You were furious about this, so you didn't care about the Yamanaka clan's secret technology at all," Samui said.
"So that's it." The Raikage snorted, "Speaking of this, I still feel angry. The old man Sarutobi Hiruzen deceived me. Fortunately, he is dead. But the current Hokage Tsunade is not a good woman either. Like Sarutobi Hiruzen, she is full of bad intentions."
Just as he finished speaking, an Anbu ninja shouted, "Lord Raikage! The confidential information has been read successfully! Come and see!"
