Naruto: Linked to Kaguya, Corrupting the Ninja World

Chapter 93: Chapter 93 - Zetsu: Hurry Up



Space-Time Ninjutsu, besides advanced techniques like otsutsuki Teleportation or Kamui, is most widely applied in Summoning Jutsu and storage scrolls.

With the Summoning Jutsu, as long as the user has established a contract with a summoning beast, they can call it anytime and anywhere, even performing [Reverse Summoning].

Jiraiya had escaped multiple times using this exact method.

This simple principle sparked Hiroki's imagination. If two people both inscribed Summoning Seals on themselves, wouldn't they be able to summon each other?

After all, humans aren't that different from summoned beasts.

Motivated by this idea, he specially traveled to the Land of Hot Springs to seek advice from Tsunade.

Tsunade gave him that "you've completely lost it" look.

"Summoning Contracts and Summoning Seals are two different things."

Seeing his indifferent expression, Tsunade continued, "Look, through history, not everyone was a genius, but plenty of folks came up with wild ideas."

[Note: By the way, currently the best app for audiobook listening is Yeguo Reader. Install the latest version at yeguoyuedu.]

"Can you guess why those ideas never worked out? Because their creators died during development."

Tsunade really thought his idea was ridiculous. Even her great-grandfather, the genius inventor Tobirama Senju, only dared to inscribe Summoning Seals onto inanimate objects for mutual summoning.

That technique was called [Mutually Multiplying Explosive Tags].

"Space is extremely dangerous. Take Konoha's Flying Thunder God Technique as an example—it's not some forbidden secret, yet very few have mastered it. Practicing space-related ninjutsu without proper talent often leads to losing limbs, getting trapped in spatial rifts, or even instant death."

"So what you're saying is… there's still a chance," Hiroki said.

Tsunade was speechless. He didn't seem fazed at all by her warning. Shrugging her shoulders, she replied, "Then go ahead if you don't fear death."

Hiroki threw himself entirely into his imaginative concept.

Of course, he wouldn't test it directly on his own body. Instead, he let his Shadow Clones test the process on each other while carefully observing any injuries or deaths they experienced.

Itachi Uchiha stood at the edge of the cliff where Shisui had taken his own life, lost in memories of the time they once shared.

After a long while, he came back to reality and checked the time. Talking to himself, he muttered, "I must finish this before Sasuke finishes school."

Several days earlier, he had informed the Konoha leadership about the Uchiha Clan's planned coup d'etat.

After a heated debate among the elders, Hiruzen Sarutobi, as always, insisted on resolving the issue through negotiations, asking Itachi to buy more time.

Same old story—talk of negotiations again. It never changed. Year after year, nothing ever got done.

Did they really have time left for discussions now?

It was at this moment that Itachi suddenly realized—Hiruzen Sarutobi, just like Danzo Shimura who openly advocated eliminating the Uchiha Clan, wasn't much different.

After the discussion, Danzo Shimura approached Itachi privately, forcing him to choose between the village and his clan.

Danzo Shimura claimed this matter had to be resolved before the Uchiha's coup attempt.

Itachi accepted the mission, agreeing to become the criminal responsible for exterminating his own clan. In exchange, the village had to promise protection and care for Sasuke.

Itachi's heart was as calm as still water as he entered a grove of trees.

This was the place where he had agreed to meet Obito.

A masked man appeared. Itachi did not make eye contact, speaking in a calm tone: "Do me a favor."

They made an agreement; Itachi would deal with the Uchiha clan members at the compound while Obito took care of the Police Department.

Due to plans for rebellion, the Uchiha clan had already recalled all its members from outside the village.

To assist Itachi's operation, Root had taken control of the areas around those two locations to prevent outsiders from interfering.

The night stretched deep and dark like spilled blood, with the horizon tinged in crimson.

All on-duty police officers were killed. Obito stepped out from the entrance.

[Several shuriken] flew through the air.

Obito halted his steps and turned his head to look.

A young girl wearing a Genin forehead protector stood holding two kunai, looking at him warily.

In her eyes, [the Three-Tomoe Sharingan] emerged.

Izumi Uchiha, just finishing her mission and preparing to head home, passed by the Police Department and caught the heavy scent of blood. Without hesitation, she launched an attack against this unknown stranger whose body was stained with blood.

"Your eyes are quite impressive," Obito praised.

But soon they would be added to my collection...

"Black Zetsu, what should we do?" At the corner, Black Zetsu waited for Obito, White Zetsu asked.

Though White Zetsu's main body stayed here, he had actually sent out a clone to secretly collect Sharingan within the Uchiha compound.

"No need to hurry. We'll save her right when she is about to die," Black Zetsu said calmly.

"What about her eyes?"

"How many Three-Tomoe Sharingans do the Uchiha have? Isn't it entirely up to what we say?" Black Zetsu maintained his usual composure.

Everything Obito knew came from information provided by Zetsu. As for what should be shared and what should remain secret—it was entirely Zetsu's decision.

Unless Obito conducted his own investigation, nothing would reach his ears about what Zetsu wanted hidden.

White Zetsu chuckled playfully.

Izumi Uchiha once again hurled kunai at Obito.

"How could this be?"

The kunai pierced through an illusion. Disbelief flooded Izumi Uchiha's face.

She panicked and tried to escape.

Obito took out chains taken from the Police Department, casually throwing them forward to bind her before pulling her close.

Tears filled Izumi Uchiha's eyes, and her mind drifted toward that young boy.

"Please save me, Itachi!"

Inside, Obito sneered.

Such a desperate expression brought real pleasure.

Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks, turning his gaze toward a certain direction.

Itachi Uchiha slowly approached, carrying a long katana on his back.

"Itachi!" Izumi Uchiha looked at the approaching figure with hope in her eyes.

At this moment, the light of survival had appeared. She even overlooked the unreadable look on Itachi's face and the blood that clung to him.

Obito suddenly smiled mockingly. "Itachi, done already?"

In the dim light, Itachi remained silent.

Hearing the masked man's tone, Izumi Uchiha widened her eyes as a dreadful thought surfaced in her mind. "Could it be… Itachi?"

Obito chuckled with ill intent. "Well then, I'll leave this one to you. She seems to be really looking forward to your arrival…"

With those words, he stepped aside, clearing a path for Izumi Uchiha.

"Itachi!" Izumi Uchiha kept crying out, one desperate call after another.

Itachi remained silent and approached her quietly.

His face was icy cold, but Izumi Uchiha locked eyes with him without flinching.

Suddenly, the three Tomoe in his eyes started spinning. Izumi Uchiha gazed into them, as though pulled into an endless spiral.

His left eye transformed into the Mangekyou, completing [Tsukuyomi]. Then slowly, he drew the long blade strapped to his back.

Zetsu arrived beside Obito for judgment. White Zetsu whispered mockingly, "He's not going to use his Mangekyou every time he takes someone down, is he? That'd be way too slow."

Seeing that Obito didn't react, White Zetsu immediately positioned himself between Izumi Uchiha and Itachi.

As he spoke, he pressed his hand against Izumi Uchiha's chest, gripping Itachi's blade and plunging it straight into her heart.

"Hurry up!"

"…"

The stone-cold mask on Itachi Uchiha's face shattered in an instant.
